While things have been going slow for me, I haven’t let up on what I’ve plan to do moving forward with my art. Whether it be MLP related or something different I’m still planning ahead. With that said I felt a change was finally in order with my Valorverse headcanon.
 
For quite sometime I’d wanted to make a new MLP O/FC to be a Hippogriff, despite having a few already: Valour Flame, Calienta, & Harmony Wind. While Val has shown quite a success with me doing him, I haven’t been as forthcoming with both Calienta & Harmony. And with me revamping my ‘Valourverse’ headcanon I felt those 2 needed a change. I had plan to change Cali into a Kirin since her personality and the Kirin fitted much better, but Harmony was different. So I decided to redesign her while also having her carry somewhat of a piece of Cali’s personality. And that’s where this new Hippogriff comes in.
 
This lovely tall beauty is Wind Surge, a Hippogriff who is more Seapony than said namesake. Like most of the Seaponies/Hippogriffs her family resides in the Seaquestria/Mt. Aris area but moved to the waters to the east to see the world. Like most who live in the sea Windy prefers the sea over the land. However, a fateful encounter with a certain red Pegasus who fell into the ocean would have Windy peak her curiosity of him, his home and the sky. The pair would become friends for many years before eventually and inevitably Windy would take to the land just to meet her friend who happens to be on the beach…but that’s a tale to tell for another time.
 
One quirk about Windy (other than her bubbly personality) is that whoever she adores making friends, particularly whom she really likes, she affectionately calls ‘cousin’. She also has a caring nature, which is due to her upbringing and love for the sea life. Well, that is all I will say for now. I hope to do more of Windy in the future.
