Decided the ponies of the AU need some alternative names better fit for the world of Equestria!
(and so they they can bs properly identified separately from the original sonic cast)
Here's a master list of all the names for everypony:
• Ponies
– Sonic Boom (Sonic)
– Twisty Tails (Tails)
– Ace Rose ("Ace") (Amy)
– Creme brulee ("Creme") (Cream)
– Bulky Catch ("Bulk") (Big)
– Mareroon ("Roon") (Rouge) batpony
– Shadow Sparks (Shadow)
– Silver stardust (Silver)
• Other Creatures
– Buckles ("Bucks") (Knuckles) Zebra
– Tenochtitlan ("Teno") (Tikal) Zebra
– Blazing Aster (Blaze) Kirin
– Mareef (Marine) Hippogriff
– Espionage (Espio) Dragon
– Scorcher (Vector) Dragon
– Hamuli (Charmy) Changeling
• Machines
– Timber Omega (T-123 Omega) (Omega)
– Metal Boom (Metal Sonic)
(this list will be updated if I think of any additional characters I'd like to include )
╰┈➤ Tags––––––––––
Some character are still referred to by there original name, so for tags I'll be using
The original name of that Character (e.g. Amy)
The original, fullname (e.g. Amy Rose)
The AU name (e.g. Ace Rose)
→ Explaining the nameing ––––––––––
• Ace Rose ––––––––––
→ Card pun
• Creme Brulee ––––––––––
→ Creme Brulee is a type of dessert which primarily uses cream!
• Bulky Catch ––––––––––
→ a play on his size but a hint to his love of fishing! (and because he quite the catch himself, we love big in these parts)
• Mareroon ––––––––––
→ since "Rouge" is a color, I decided to pick another color as the alternative name. Maroon not only works for the pun, but is also a color associated with bl*od, which felt appropriate for a bat pony
• Shadow Sparks ––––––––––
→ he's a dark figure, illuminated only by the sparks of his own magic
• Buckles ––––––––––
→ Horses (or Zebras in this case) don't have hands, so they don't have Knuckles, so they can't punch. Horses do however, have hooves, and can kick, this Buckles, Bucks!
• Tenochtitlan ––––––––––
→ Tikal is named after a temple, so I figured her AU name should be named after a temple in Equestria, and I landed on the Tenochtitlan temple, not much is actually known for this temple in universe, so writing will be required.
• Blazing Aster ––––––––––
→ the Kirin have plant/nature related names. Aster is a kind of purple flower so I figured it fit best!
• Mareef ––––––––––
→ "Marine" is in reference to general Ocean life, which is very prominent in Coral Reefs.
• Espionage ––––––––––
→ Dragons usually have short names that list off a specific trait, Espio is short of espionage which refers to spying
• Scorcher ––––––––––
→ A hint at his fire breath (or fire tunes if you'd like)
• Hamuli ––––––––––
→ the changelings tend to have names that reference bug anatomy or topics, "Hamuli" are a structure found on honeybee wings.
• Timber Omega ––––––––––
→ Omega is a term used for wolf rankings in some cases, so perhaps it's used for Timberwolves as well! Omegas design will reflect that aspect as well as what powers him
On a scale of Sunburst to Starlight Glimmer, how powerful is Tails’ magic?
Ooooo I love this question.
He's a young pony who's mainly book smart as he's more of an inventor with magic being a power source
However he is already pretty strong with magic even at his young age, and his cutie mark does show magic being an important side to his special talent.
For now I'd say he leans more on the sunburst side of the scale but when he's older he'll be WAAAY more on the Starlight side
Sonic ofc knows about the mane 6; I mean, doesn't everypony? But he's really only a friendly acquaintance of most the girls.
since he doesn't live in ponyvill due to constantly traveling (and has his own rocking set of friends) he doesn't find much time to hang with them. Especially when both sets of ponies are usually busy with adventures.
He does like to stop by in ponyvill every once and awhile, and has even bumped into the girls during his travels.
for instance, during a trip in Canterlot he offered to deliver some dresses for Rarity in exchange for fixing a hole in his scarf free of charge (that pony does not keep bits on him.) I think Rarity would have fixed it regardless, she is very generous like that, but sonic loves to take any opportunity to test his speed.
However, out of all the mane 6 I'd say he's closest with Rainbow dash! They meant during an event in cloudsdale and ended up having a blast racing each other, and often make time to race again if they're in the same area. After all, It's not often dash meets another pony who can really keep up with her.
So.. the crossover AU got SIGNIFICANTLY more attention then I was expecting. So I figured I'd try and make a small AU blog to answer questions and keep content organized
Thank you-all for the amount of support given on that artwork, I look forward to creating more in the future!
