Twilight Sparkle: Can I talk about my character for a bit?
DM: Sure.
Twilight Sparkle: Alrighty! My little pony's name is Twilight Sparkle, and I'm a level 1 unicorn Wizard. My trained skills are Arcana, Dungeoneering, History, Insight, and Religion. As a pony, my special talent is magic.
Rainbow Dash: Wait, what?
Twilight Sparkle: Magic! My Cutie Mark is a purple star surrounded by smaller white stars.
Rarity: But you're a unicorn. Unicorns already HAVE magic. They're the magical race.
DM: Actually, unicorn magic is limited to telekinesis... and specific spells associated with a special talent.
Twilight Sparkle: And since my special talent IS magic...
Rainbow Dash: Good grief. If that's the case, I shoulda gone with "fighting stuff" as my special talent. Then I'd have an axe on my butt.
