==Races== Obviously, the big race of the setting is "Ponykind", which takes full advantage of Pathfinder's system for racial variants to allow for a variety of tribes and sub-tribes(Like Gem or Sea Ponies). Other races include "Cloven"(Goats), Griffons, "Sun Cats" (arrogant sun-worshipping lions), "Phoenix Wolves" (redeemed-to-Neutral former hellhounds), "Purrsians" (winged cats who are all greedy, gem- and- treasure-obsessed jerks, most commonly merchants), Flutterponies, "Steelhearts" (basically [[Warforged]] in Pony shape and the ''laziest'' idea in the whole corebook) and Pony Satyrs (from a web-splat; [[monstergirl]]-style human/pony halfbreeds born from... well, a human fucking a pony(or a cat)). In fact, a complete list of races-by-source consists of: * '''Pony:''' Your basic My Little Pony protagonist. Debuts in the corebook, with an expanded array of subraces debuting in ''Tribes of Everglow''. Actually divides its subraces into "true" subraces - physically distinct variations - and "spiritual paths", representing micro-templates that can be applied to any of the subraces. For example, you can be a giant Antean Earth-Bound, sparking Gem Pegasus or mechanical Clockwork Unicorn. ** ''Earth-Bound:'' Your basic Pony. ** ''Unicorn:'' Magic-using horn-headed pony. ** ''Pegasus:'' Winged flying pony. ** ''Zebra:'' Stripy Earth-Bound with an affinity for [[Alchemist|alchemy]]. ** ''Doppelganger:'' Shape-shifting ponies based on [[Changeling]]s. One of the "Spiritual Path" strains. ** ''Leatherwing:'' Bat-featured nocturnal versions of pegasi. ** ''Tribe of Bones:'' An outcast clan of benevolent [[necromancer]]s and ancestor-worshippers. One of the "Spiritual Path" strains. ** ''Ghost Pony:'' Ponies who fled to the [[Ethereal Plane]] and adapted to live there, essentially a pony version of [[Ghost Elf|Ghost Elves]]. ** ''Chaos Hunter:'' Ponies who have dedicated their lives to destroying Chaos in all its manifestations. One of the "Spiritual Path" strains. ** ''Antean:'' Giant versions of regular ponies. No, that doesn't mean "a horse". One of the "Spiritual Path" strains. ** ''Gem Pony:'' Crystalline-skinned ponies who have an affinity for manipulating crystals. One of the "Spiritual Path" strains. ** ''Clockwork:'' Ponies transformed into living clockwork by a divine curse. One of the "Spiritual Path" strains. ** ''Sea Horse:'' Amphibious ponies native to the sea. ** ''Sun Pony:'' Desert-dwelling, heat-resistant ponies. One of the "Spiritual Path" strains. ** ''Short-Leg:'' Tiny and adorable versions of ponies created by Lashtada, and nearly wiped out by gem gnoll slavers. * '''Pony Satyr:''' The result of crossbreeding between human and pony, duh. Pony Satyrs come in any of the "physical" subraces, so you can have earth-bound, unicorn, pegasus, zebra, leatherwing, ghost pony, sea horse or short-leg satyrs. It would later be established that humans can also crossbreed with purrsians, ruminants, proto-ponies and kava, which are considered part of the overarching pony satyr racial family tree, which makes a certain sense. Weirdly, ponies can also interbreed with purssians, and the resultant horse-cats are also considered a form of pony satyr, perhaps due to the purrsian's naturally bipedal stance. Introduced in ''Princess Luminace's Guide to the Pony Pantheon'', with ''Tribes of Everglow'' adding further subraces, ''Forgotten Past'' adding ruminant and purrsian satyrs, and the PDFs for krava and proto-ponies featuring their pony satyr offshoots. * '''Luminous Dragon:''' Small and benevolent dragons who have integrated into pony society. Introduced in ''Princess Luminace's Guide to the Pony Pantheon''. * '''Griffon:''' Flying bird-cats with a predatory streak and a complicated relationship with ponies, debuting in ''Griffons of Everglow''. Griffon subraces are called "Aspects", and refer more to archetypes to which their avian & feline halves fall(in addition to the classic Eagle/Lion, you can have stuff like Toucan/Leopard, Owl/Tiger, or Sparrow/Housecat) into rather than distinct species like with the ponies. These Aspects consist of: ** ''Predator:'' The typical griffon, with this representing the "base" griffon. ** ''Prey:'' Less physically adept, but more gregarious and with a greater affinity for benevolent magic. ** ''Scavenger:'' Physically weak even compared to Prey Aspects, but incredibly smart. ** ''Cursed:'' Afflicted with painful crystalline growths that sap strength, but grant a natural affinity for [[psionics]]. ** ''Cheetah:'' Renowned for their land speed, these griffons have the feline half of a cheetah. ** ''Pride:'' Naturally gregarious and social, these griffons have the feline half of a lion. ** ''Sea:'' Griffons adapted to hunt from the sea, having the aspects of fishing cats and birds, or even otters. ** ''Snow:'' Griffons adapted for life in cold, snowy environments. * '''Hippogriff:''' The uncommon result of ponies (usually pegasai, naturally) and griffons hooking up. Obviously, these showed up in ''Griffons of Everglow''. * '''Cloven:''' Sapient goats, essentially Everglow's quadrupedal fey beasty analogue to [[dwarf]]s. Featured in ''Races of Everglow''. * '''Flutterpony:''' The pony version of [[pixie]]s, coming in ''Butterfly'', ''Dragonfly'', ''Feral'' and ''Moth'' subraces. Featured in ''Races of Everglow''. * '''Gem Gnoll:''' A subterranean-adapted strrain of the [[gnoll]] race obsessed with gemstones. Featured in ''Races of Everglow''. * '''The Impure:''' Donkeys who are literally characterized as the unloved and forgotten brothers of ponykind, having been used as their scapegoats throughout pony history. Featured in ''Races of Everglow''. * '''Phoenix Wolf:''' Redeemed hellhounds who still retain a fiery elemental nature. Featured in ''Races of Everglow''. * '''Purrsian:''' Winged cats with a lust for treasure and excitement. Featured in ''Races of Everglow''. * '''Steelheart:''' Literally [[Warforged]], but in pony shape, and utterly pointless considering you already have the Clockwork spiritual path. Featured in ''Races of Everglow''. * '''Sun Cat:''' Solar-worshipping sapient lions. Featured in ''Races of Everglow''. * '''Ruminant:''' Mystical deer who are the Everglow's fey-beast analogue to the [[Elf]] race. Introduced in ''Forgotten Past''. * '''Mineralite:''' Pony hybrids with a species of living gems. Introduced in ''Beyond Everglow'', the Ponyfinder equiivalent to [[Starfinder]] and [[Starjammer]]. * '''Unspoken Spawn:''' Ponies warped into mutated [[aberration]]s. Introduced in ''Beyond Everglow'', the Ponyfinder equiivalent to [[Starfinder]] and [[Starjammer]], then reprinted in ''Depths of Everglow''. * '''Reptilin:''' Everglow's version of [[lizardfolk]]. Introduced in ''Everglow Bestiary''. * '''Big Mao:''' A race of humanoid pandas. Introduced in ''Tactics of Everglow''. * '''Drakhooves:''' [[Kirin]]-like dragon/pony hybrids. Introduced in ''Tactics of Everglow''. * '''Vulpony:''' The pony version of [[kitsune]]s. Introduced in ''Tactics of Everglow''. * '''Nedjes Sphinx:''' Lore-obsessed human-faced winged cats native to the Everglow's [[Underdark]]. Introduced in ''Depths of Everglow''. * '''Deep Elf:''' Albino elves who have been in the Everglow's Underdark fighting a generations-long war against the [[aberration]] hordes for so long that surfacers have forgotten they exist. Introduced in ''Depths of Everglow''. * '''Krava:''' Pony-like sapient cattle who have been integrated into pony civilization for so long that nopony realized they exist. Currently only exist in a PDF called "Hidden Draft". * '''Protopony:''' The weird amphibious "ancestral race" of ponykind, representing remnants of those first ponies to emerge from the sea and adapt to life on land. Currently only exist in a PDF called "First Steps".
