MLP: FiM SD Archive / What would Pony Parchment be made out of?
2015 Mar 25, 05:32:42
Traditional/actual parchment is made from stretched and treated calf, goat, or sheep skins.
As far as something for people to write on in Western civilizations, who used cows for much more than just milk, parchment was a pretty good solution to the Western world's need for something like paper.
But Equestrian ponies are herbivores. They don't eat meat at all and most animals on four legs with hooves of some kind are on the same or similar level of people that ponies are. Cows have definitely been shown to be on a similar level of people as ponies. So I'm pretty sure calf skin is off the table. I personally don't remember if any goats or sheep have been in or spoken in the show off the top of my head. As a society of herbivores that seems to consider all life has some form of intelligence, I don't think ponies would use animal parts to make things.
So what do you think pony parchment is made with? Do you think they would figure out how to make different kinds of papers on their own? Do you think Equestria imports most of its paper from other countries?

Hello~! I'm TeaKay, and I used to post here occasionally a few years ago. I'd like to give this forum another try and maybe actually make some friends this time! I've also been slowly getting back into role-playing, and I'd like to do some of that on here.
If you want to know some basic things about me, I'm 23, cis female, like female pronouns, and am into art, animation, videogames, cartoons/anime, and comics/manga. I'm also an artists and I mainly do printmaking, bookmaking, and illustrations.

I'm TeaKay, mod of askprincessyue.tumblr.com. Nice to meet everyone! I'll play when i get the chance and i hope there are more customization options for your pony in the future! I'm also somewhat decent at texturing, and wouldn't mind helping to create textures for the game.
