I wanted to draw Spike as a hippogriff from my randomized species swap AU (which I'm calling Stochastia), but I'm tired, so I made him in Pony Town instead. He has pegasus wings because he's not fully-grown.

As for his backstory? Twilight Sparkle (who's a diamond dog) found his egg washed up in Caninia when she was young. Years later, Queen Katherina Proudpaws sends her on a diplomatic mission to Stochastia, and Spike comes with her. He's amazed to meet another hippogriff there: Fluttershy.

Also, the species-swapped characters will have different names. Any ideas?
