Signature Spellbook: Ditzy Doo · 12:04am Mar 22nd, 2018
Blame/thank Zennistrad for this one. It's been far too long since I've taken a look at the exploits of Ditzy Planeswalker. This should prove to be a fun exercise.
Signature Spellbook: Ditzy Doo would come with Ditzy, Muffin Queen and the following:
New Art: A profile shot of a searing bolt of mystical fire streaking towards Ditzy... only for it to divert off course and flow into a suspiciously muffin-shaped lump of golden energy in her raised hoof. Ditzy looks on in amusement.
New Flavor Text: "Let's hope your spell is more delicious than it was effective."
New Art: Ditzy running out of a Ghirapur shop with numerous geegaws and doodads held in mouth and wings, the shouting shopkeep close behind with a broom held over her head.
New Flavor Text: "What can I say? Tezzeret gave me his love of shiny things."
New Art: Ditzy giving Dinky a magic lesson, various mystic sigils hanging in the air between them, each symbol one of two colors, matching the glow of either Ditzy's eyes or Dinky's horn.
New Flavor Text: "Once you understand the fundamentals, it's all a lot less complicated than it seems."
New Art: Something like this.
New Flavor Text: "Sometimes you need to blend the crowd into you."
New Art: Ditzy and a yak are seated at an outdoor table at one of Ponyville's cafes, having a pleasant conversation as others look on in confusion.
New Flavor Text: "They're really quite nice once you establish some ground rules."
New Art: Ditzy glaring down at a snarling dragon she's sealed within a magic bubble. Though both are in midair, the dragon is standing on a desolate shore with a different sky than the one outside of the bubble.
New Flavor Text: N/A
New Art: A confused Twilight Sparkle looks at the viewer, her eyes golden and misaligned. A purple-eyed, straight-gazed Ditzy smiles in the background.
New Flavor Text: "I try to see things from everypony's perspective."
New Art: Ditzy, eyes closed, confidently walks towards a screaming giant that swings down a mace larger than she is to crush her. Every part of giant and mace behind the tip of Ditzy's muzzle is dissipating blue mist, forming a clean vertical line between what's gone and what hasn't left yet.
New Flavor Text: "Speaking as someone with a lot of experience with the subject, get lost."
Best planeswalker.
Awesome!!
I would be super stoked to see that actually happen
This makes me giggle way more than is reasonable.
Best pony is also best planeswalker, and I would buy as many of these as I could get my hands on
Thought Prism suggested I do one of these for Star Swirl... It could be interesting, but it's been a few years now since I've played and I'm finding it hard to come up with the right spells for a guy who probably knows every spell there ever was
(That said, Oblivion Ring is an obvious #1.)
Damnit, I didn't need that inspiration! I hope you and Zennistrad are happy with yourselves.
This is making me miss the exploits of Ditzy Planeswalker. I wonder if you might be having any spellbook-spawned ideas for a return to her, especially (my wildest dreams!) a reimagining of My Little Praetor? Phyrexia plus ponies proved, personally, phenomenally pleasing.
Also, these:
were perfect.
