((And away we go!!!))

As he nears Ponyville, he opens his notebook.

Yes, this reality will bring much knowledge. Already I see marked differences. Twi will be anxious to read my notes! He mumbled to himself. He magicks away the notebook, and with his horn still glowing, throws his head in a slashing motion, top-down. A tear appears in front of him and he walks through it. The tear closes a moment after he leaves.

((And with that, bed for me as well, night everypony!))

Not realizing so much time had passed, he finally looks up from his notes. He stands, and heads back towards Ponyville.

They're trying to "sort this out", that sounds like they're fighting the C&D to me!

Go Mane6!

We can only hope and pray to Celestia and Luna they can continue.

Spoiler: show

"Trademark" is just another word for "screwing the fandom"

Not really. To shown an example, let's look at nintendo. Their company's symbol [spoiler]

is the company name inside whatever you'd call that shape... Now another company named *win*tendo starts making things. There's quite a lot of clueless people out there who could potentially purchase a 'win'tendo product mistaking it for a nintendo product. Do you see where I'm going with this?

[/spoiler]

Mane 6 =/= Hasbro.

That's obvious.

Nope. Still no problem.

While that's true to most in the fandom chances are those outside don't know anything; and therein lies the problem! Hasbro has no problem with it in regards to us. The problem they face is having to uphold their property in legal terms, and with preventing things from our side effecting those who aren't.

If people flipped out about derpy, how do you think they'd react if they thought a fighting game was made by hasbro? It seems to be human nature to shoot and 'not' ask questions later. People also rarely like to admit they're wrong. You may say hasbro needs to ignore them, but if they do that there is quite a real possibility of monetary loss to follow, which could lead to frayed ties between them and us.

On note with the Derpy fiasco, I think it's kind of hypocritical that Hasbro swept her under the carpet official... But still makes money off selling her merchandise... Completely off topic, but meh.

Arrives at the scene where Lloyd and Ace are practicing. He stands off to the side, watching and making notes in a notebook every-so-often.

Farsight's horn lights up and his eyes take on a distant look.

This magic... This is the difference I was looking for. Hmm.....

Begins to head South, towards the fight.

Hugs bleyd back. Then turns to Rouge.

Im what is called a Wanderer in my reality. It's a very rare talent. I'm actually here to study the Leylines and see if there are any differences.

((I haven't gotten my OCs bio written out yet... And typing on an iPhone is a tad tedious.))

 Trust me, we aren't. It kind of be hard to be, since I'm not from this reality of Equestria.

Farsight turns to look at bleyd.

No, we're not. This is my first time in this Ponyville.

The pleasure is all mine. My name is Farsight.

He bows slightly, then turns to continue his studies.

I guess you can't win them all. Well played.

Sighing, he grabs the water ballon, but this time it vanishes into thin air, instead of being hurled back.

You want to play, hmm? Alright, let's play.

the water ballon that had vanished before reappears, surrounded by 4 more. He hurls all these towards his assailant.

The water ballon is engulfed in a gray field of magic, stopping it in mid air. It then is hurled back at its thrower.

He begins to wander about the town, looking at the different stalls and their wares. Every so often, his horn would flash with magic and he would mumble something to himself.

A flash can be seen in one of the alleyways. A red pony walks out, his horn glowing a slight gray color as he studies something in the air.

This seems to be the right place...

Wonder if Lauren would draw straight up OC ponies for the game, that way the move sets could remain, like lots of you said you wanted. I mean, it can't be too hard to draw a few new ponies, 2 of each race and all. And enough names have thrown around.

Makes me wonder why all the random pony games on the App Store ((like the one with a picture of Babs Seed)) haven't been C&D'd yet... And they're selling those, sure for only 0.99$, but that's still a dollar more than Fighting is Magic.

you could ask him for permission?  There's a random Youtube video that's called The Wandering Magus, but I've yet to have any complaints about my name anywhere on the net.

I'll just wait until he says something. We may not ever cross paths either. There is that quote... "Better to ask forgiveness than permission." XD

Hmmm... Slight problem with my OC... After writing a chapter and a half, I find that there is somepony else going by Farsight on FiMFiction... But he has no story(A little intro, I guess) and no actual OC I see created. Would it be considered stealing if I go by said name? (I actually don't plan on using FiMFiction for my story anyway, just wanted to see if anypony else had the same name). What do?

if you had the name first, and have evidence of that, then you could dispute it I guess.  Otherwise it's probably not worth the arguing, unless you really are attached to the name.

Well, looking at the time he joined FiMFiction... He did so before I even knew MLP existed as it does now. I wouldn't be too attached to it... If I could come up with a different name that has the same meaning. Just been using it pretty much since when I joined the Herd. Oh well...
