These are in chronological order of when each Percy was first designed! Enjoy ur Percy history lesson

Percy the Gastly (aka, Percy Alpha)

It’s so weird to think that Percy started as an NPC! During the huge Pokemon vs Humans war in Dreamscape, Percy was a Gastly a group of scavengers located among the rubble in Pewter City. At first he didn’t even realize he was dead, and insisted on finding his trainer. Eventually, Percy befriended a trainer and helped her in the war effort.

HipsterPercysprite (aka Bird man. For birds)

This Percy wasn’t drawn more than once or twice back when I was super into homestuck. He was a kernel sprite created from a hipster seagull (whatever that is) and, of course, Percy. I really didn’t do anything with this design but it looked nice.

Percy the Ponyta (aka, Stay Cool Percy Boy)

During Percy’s first swap event, I thought it would be funny to turn him into a multi legged pokemon because he didn’t have legs at the time. So I made him a Ponyta centaur. Percy’s relationship with ponies started here and sometimes I ask myself how the hell that happened.

Eden Percival, (aka the gay half-ghost)

I joined an OCT back in 2012 and this was the result. This Percy (referred to as Percival) was a 15th century mercenary who got killed and ended up in limbo. Magical forces brought him back to life as a half-ghost, and he tried fighting for his honour or whatever. I’ve always been super proud of this design in general!

TYL Percy, (aka Brony Hell)

Set 10 years after the present Dreamscape, TYL let me ask myself “what would it be like to be a 17 year old ghost for 10 years?”. Percy turned into kind of a man child but this is where he started to shape into the Percy we know and love today.

Ekans Percy (aka TYE)

Alongside TYL, an alternate universe set ten years in an alternate past was also introduced to Dreamscape. This let me try my hand at a pre-death-not-even-a-brony Percy! I thought it would be fun to play into the “he didn’t have legs until he was a centaur” thing by giving him a snake lower half.

Domni Percy (aka Shadow the Percy)

The Dread plot was one of my favourite things in Dreamscape! It was a super great way to explore characters, Percy included. I got to ask myself “What does Percy repress? What won’t he share about himself?” Thus, his shadow/domni was born. This was the Percy he wish he could be; big, looming, intimidating.

Shadow Dusk Eclipse (aka My Little Domni)

Very early on while developing Percy’s shadow world I wanted his domni to be split into two distinct parts. Dusk Eclipse is Percy’s pony avatar, an extension of his being. In the shadow world, he was fearful and kicked around by the larger scarier domni. He represented a lot of the flaws Percy saw in himself.

Keldeo Percy (aka Mega Brony Percy)

I saw the opportunity with this swap and took it. Percy became the pony. He was the pony king.

Swoobat Percy (aka Rouge the Percy)

Another species swap, this one doesn’t have an interesting story behind it I just like Swoobat a lot aesthetically (and it has big ears like percy)

Domni Monster (aka Ghost Pony rider)

Of course, after denying that the shadow/domni, it would turn into a huge monster(we kinda stole this shit from Persona). I had a lot of fun trying to come up with something visually interesting! This was the result. The idea is that the monster had a huge flaming mane that actually hurt the tail (i guess it had separate pain registration or something). I looked up a lot of horse skulls while designing this guy.

Dusk Eclipse (aka My Little Ponysona)

After designing Percy’s domni pony, I figured I should figure out what his actual ponysona looked like. His talent was spooky pranks (hence the ghost cutie mark) and he was a unicorn. I thought he was p cute.

Zigzagoon Percy (aka Original Percy do not steal)

I decided to have fun this swap and gave Percy a very silly ability, Pickup. It made for a lot of in character fun as he would find stuff in his pockets seemingly out of nowhere (he didn’t realize he was picking things up wherever he went). It was fun.

Barghest Percival (aka Sexy Dreamboat)

So my best friend actually fell in love with Shadow Percy when i first designed him. When we decided to rp together she suggested I play Shadow Percy. So we adapted him to be some kind of wolf shapeshifter beast thing. A barghest is like a death hound! My friend was expecting a suave sexy wolf guy but this Percy was a big baby and it was kind of funny. ReSa Percy (aka New Percy Old Tricks)

Bringing Percy to ReSa had its issues. This Percy couldn’t be a ghost anymore, cause those weren’t a thing. So I was like “well gee how do I make this character work”. Instead, he ended up being a little dweeb who just really loved ponies and dreamed of being able to write for TV shows and movies! Dream big, little Percy.

Audino Percy (aka Pinksplosion)

Another Swap. I liked this design a lot.

Freelance Witch Percy (aka, Percy Present)
