Epona the Cat

Be the brave one of your story, but glory will not be your goal, nor will you win it, hard work will reward you with it -Epona the Cat Sonic Chronicles 1~ the Quest for Kei

( And here's a link of Me failing Epona's Voice XD : COMING SOON!)

Disclaimer
Her name has NOTHING to do with the horse from Legend of Zelda! OKAY? The name was given on the spot, JUST BE GLAD I USED A NAME NO OTHER FC HAS! -StarlightDawn

Epona the Cat
Epona, is the former guardian of the 8th chaos emerald, she has kept it since her mother's disappearance and death of her mother and father after they were abducted and killed by Eggman after a failed robot attempt to destroy the 3rd dimension, or Kei (Pronounced Key)

Though she rules a kingdom on her own and has to look after a seedrian sister her parents adopted, Samantha, she still fights for everyone, even when her life is at stake.

Games she appears in (so far)

 * Sonic Chronicles 1: The Quest for Kei (playable)
 * Sonic Rush Fever (Fan Game) (Non-playable)
 * Sonic: Revolution (fan game) (playable)

Concept
Epona was first created and first drawn on the creator's Dsi a month before the movie Frozen took off, and a few days after her creator discovered Touhou for the first time. She had many forms before she became who she is today, for example the 8th emerald was originally planned to be conceived on the moon and Epona volunteered to be its guardian, and stayed up there for about 10 years, however this was scrapped due to Unoriginality. Why is it you ask? Recall Knuckles guards the master emerald, similarities anyone? And a few months later is when she had the idea to have swords as her weapon, and her wings were made completely out of fragile ice crystals, and the thought that she was at one point going to have a double-ganger with the power of fire instead of ice. This was scrapped though, as well as the thought that her super form was going to include her power suddenly changing to fire and destroying everything, but this super form was replaced and favored with another idea, "Diamond Epona" as her super form. And now we get to the point before the Deviantart page came along, her original look evolved into what she looks like today (as seen in the pictures) but there was one thing she had during these evolutions, she kept her moon barette the whole thing through, but a test went on to see what she would look like without it, and then the barette was scrapped, and now she looks like what she is now. Her name, wasn't a Legend of Zelda inspiration at all actually, when she was first created on that Flip note studio screen, it was the first thing that came to mind! So don't complain that I can't make it up on the spot and I have to have an inspiration, I mean that's what the creators of most characters did and NO ONE was complaining! SO DON'T START WITH ME OKAY?! Thank you :)

The Emerald and it's Beginnings
It was a dark time in the land of kei, Much like the great depression, and the people had a nasty, greedy, evil ruler. Many had tried to stop him and save the son from his wrath and horrid punishments for being a good boy, but all had failed miserably by execution... But the people of the church of Soul, the guardian of good, had to come up with a solution to this problem, everyone would've been killed if they don't do something now, one looked to the stars and believed they found the answer. Everyone found him crazy, but what they didn't know was that it was the prince himself disguised in ragged cloth of the elder church people.

He begged soul to give him an answer if he was going to beat this menace of a father, and the answer was right behind him, his mother's old necklace, it was rather a plain necklace, with a blue gem attached to it. He visited the castle potion tower and tried most of the things he could find without being caught, star's dust, moon rock powder, everything he could without too much noise to wake his father. Nothing availed after he put them all together, he had failed. He held the emerald close to his heart, remembering the kindness for his mother before she died, a single tear landed on the emerald and it began to glow. A beam of light turned the Moon a beautiful blue. The emerald he dropped on the floor now looked like there was a galaxy inside. The Emerald itself was very powerful too, enough to put an end to the dread and have The prince take the throne! It became a holiday from that day on in the late june, "The Day of the Blue Moon"

Epona's Parents
Centuries had passed since the creation of the 8th emerald and was passed down generations since, the wizards were able to disguise it as the blue gem it once was for protection purposes. Rubio the cat, was the kind king of the land, but he was not a king yet though... He had to marry into the throne because he was 3rd born and not heir to the throne in this home kingdom, so he made his own. As he entered the arena of the firefly racers stadium, he happened to fall in love with an unknown stranger, he tried to look away but he couldn't stop thinking or looking at her, her name was Genesis, she is a commoner in the Haven dimension, a heavenly dimension made entirely out of clouds and everyone was born with the wings of an angel, she was there to compete against the Sol Ravens. Eventually he did talk to her, ask her out... yada yada yada... then Epona was born with the wings like her mother, the end.

Epona's Backstory
She was Born in kei, Raised to be a kind girl with a loving heart. She had wings on her back since the day she was born, this was brought down to her from her mother, from the Paradise dimension where everybody had them. She was Homeschooled and her parents noticed she looked... lonely... They decided to fix it by adopting a poor little girl at an orphanage, She was the only one left they could offer so they took her in anyway, she was happy until... the night they were taken... She cried for 3 days even during the funeral when she found out they were dead for sure. A few years passed and she met a few people in the town square of Rogenhegen, A town near the castle, they called themselves The Freedom Fighters X.D. and they knew who token her parents. She was desperate to know, and it was EGGMAN! She vowed to take revenge on eggman for his doings since...

Relationships with others
This will be complicated since she prefers people who don't wish to attack her or her sister at all. So people like her closest friends, Crystal the fox and Sailius the wolf are acceptions. But with the sonic heroes, she's closest with Sonic and Espio, But espio is the one liking to be around her, usually since charmy always likes to be around her sister all the time, Sonic just likes the "guard duty" thing kinda like shadow did with Maria at the ark 50 years ago, but now she's alive in the kei dimension he still does so.

Other info you might need to know
She likes long walks on beaches, flowers such as roses and pansies, an seeing people being happy (awwwww!)

We'll one day find out! But I do think it might be one of her close friends... Don't ask me!

Intelligence
Her IQ is About a 130, almost as smart as tails

Great flexibility
Her flexibility makes her great at dodging attacks

Flight Abilities
Well she IS a fly type... SELF EXPLANITORY

Strength
The fly type May be her thing... But she is pretty strong too, but not the STRONGEST in the world though...

Weaknesses
Strengths aside, let's get to weaknesses before people think she is a mary sue... AND SHE IS NOT.


 * Fire

This is self explanatory, but large amounts of it like lava CAN in fact kill her even with the emerald's protection


 * Dark Aura

Dark aura does have an effect on her since she is a light type, but it wouldn't be too fatal though, it would weaken the emerald's abilities though


 * Solar Eclipses

Most of her Light power comes from the Sun, so is an eclipse comes it weakens her light ability, but it wouldn't kill her though, it would just make her weaker.


 * The emerald itself

This is a rare chance of happening but this can only be done if the emerald is taken over to the bad side and used for evil doings, if it hits her, Its a critical hit and might die from the amount of damage. But this is a rare chance of happening, plus the emerald is her responsibility... with the power, you have to have great responsibility.

Powers and abilities
As you can see she is a Ice/Light type fighter with Magician abilities such as these:

Fantasy Seal
This is a Series of bullets that can hit you from pretty far away and does SERIOUS amount of damage to an opponent and sends them flying. Which is why she only uses it to finish an opponent off only, here's an example video:

Reimu (The girl in red) = Epona

Soccer ball = The target fighter

And minus the fact that its based on a soccer game... ^_^'



Ice storm
Makes it rain giant spikes if ice, does 15% of damage

The Blinding Effect
Light shines from the emerald blinding the opponent for a short amount of time

Light shield
A shield from the sun's light and energy, and reflects almost anything

Angel's Bow
A large bow as light as air and can shoot from pretty far away with light arrows (Kinda like Pit's bow from super smash bros.)

Mary Sue Test Results
Results: 23%

She could have a few mental and physical traits that could be considered sueish, but not annoyingly so. All good here! :) The test I took: http://www.quotev.com/quiz/4295309/A-Mary-sue-test-are-you-a-mary-sue/

And an extra one so I could be sure:http://www.gotoquiz.com/is_your_character_a_mary_sue_2

(the reason I lowered it is because I took another test to be SURE she isn't Mary sue, and I got a lower score!)

Trivia

 * Epona wasn't always a good guy, in her early stages of development, she was an antihero
 * In her timeline, she did at one point have a lover, his name was Vincent Van Roe (or Vincent the lynx), and he was her protector and a ninja too. The reason why he's not her crush is because he died saving her life from eggman when her parents were taken, she was supposed to be taken too... She still thinks of him though, sometimes she acts like he's still there. He is buried in the furthest point under her garden under a giant Golden cherry tree now, where nobody can watch her mourn. The reason why she hides it is because she's usually optimistic around others, they're not used to seeing her cry.
 * There was a point where she wasn't a princess at all! But just a normal mobian girl with a passion to sing!
 * Her origins were not what you'd expect, she was at one point going to be a HUMAN?! *DUN DUN DUN!* and... she never wore blue, she wore mostly black and Some pallets of Magenta...
