With a sudden shadow enveloping Zecora and the others, the zebra slowly looked up to see Shiny, who was perched on top of a wall. Looking down at the group as said group was moving away from the transformed pony. "Run and keep your distance as Shiny is around the town! Make sure to have fire and water with you and it shall slow her down!" Zecora exclaimed, dodging and weaving around Shiny, who was attacking the group. As each other stuffed animal plush made their attacks on the transformed mare, it looked as if the attacks were working, but still not phasing Shiny. With hope looking to be lost, Zecora heard what sounded like a roar. Craning her neck towards the source, she saw that it was the sound of a polar bear. "Oh, my. Is that a polar bear? Now that's something I didn't expect to appear out of nowhere." Zecora wondered how and where this polar bear had appeared, but the bear looked to be on their side. With the polar bear landing atop of Shiny, CatNap had managed to pour the cure into Shiny's mouth. Shielding her eyes from the blinding light, it looked as if Shiny had slowly began to transform back to her original self. With the light dissipating, Zecora slowly opened her eyes to see that Shiny had returned. Sighing in relief, the zebra smiled as it looked like her work here was done. "With all of us working together, all has turned out well. Shiny is back to normal, that I can truly tell." Zecora says, grabbing her vials, potion brewing materials and saddlebag. "With everything now back to normal, my work here is done. Despite everything that's happened, I must say it was a lot of fun." Waving at the group, Zecora took her leave as she started to head back to her hut in the Everfree Forest.

The book Dark Skies Over Equestria, an expansion for Renegade Game Studios' My Little Pony Roleplaying Game (which also introduced the Changelings into the game), has its own entry for Kelpies like Cassie from the comic My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic issue #23. I did write homebrews for both the Sea-dwelling Kelpies and the Kelpies of Farasi using Renegade's Essence20 rules, if you are interested in seeing them. Here is the entry from the book (plus another panel from the coimic): Kelpie Kelpies are pony-like aquatic creatures known for their powerful, enchanting song. While they are generally peaceful, they prioritize the needs of water creatures, which can lead to conflicts with land creatures. Kelpies can leave the water for short times, but prefer not to if they can avoid it. Kelpies have the head and mane of a pony but a serpentine body with four fins in their backs. They are clever and able to talk in pony language if they choose to. THREAT LEVEL: 5 SIZE: Common HEALTH: 2 MOVEMENT: 10ft Ground, 45ft Aquatic STRENGTH: 5 SPEED: 4 SMARTS: 4 SOCIAL: 3 TOUGHNESS: 15 EVASION: 14 WILLPOWER: 14 CLEVERNESS: 13 SKILLS • Acrobatics +d4 • Alertness +d6 • Athletics +d4 • Initiative +d4 • Might +d6 • Performance +d6 • Survival +d2 PERKS Aquatic Creature: While in a body of water, a kelpie is more dangerous, upshifting all Strength Skill Tests by ↑1. ATTACKS Bite (Might): +d6, Range Reach (1 sharp damage) Tail Smash (Might): +d6, Range Reach (2 blunt damage) POWERS Enchanting Song (1/Scene, Standard): Kelpies can sing a magical song that dominates the mind of those who hear it. The kelpie makes a Performance Skill Test and anyone hearing it who’s Willpower is lower than the result is affected. The song implants a single idea in the minds of those affected by it, such as ‘protect the kelpie’ or ‘break the damn’. After a night of rest the affected creature can shake off the affects by making a DIF 14 Alertness Skill Test. They can also attempt to shake off the affects if another character can convince them what they are up to is wrong. Note that while the song is powerful, it cannot make someone hurt themselves or act directly against their nature (as defined by the GMs discretion).
