Page 745 - Ninety Percent Mental

This page originally started out as referencing Thunderlane and his initial 9.3 wingpower, so Twilight’s exclamation was “77%!” But despite getting a scene all to himself, on further viewing it becomes apparent during the montage that quite a few other ponies break Thunderlane’s score, ending with our constellation boy up there and leaving us with the less impressive-sounding “50%!”

Still, while it sounds obvious in retrospect, I maintain that it requires a very particular mind to immediately realize that 16.5 is 150% of 11…

Anyway, there’s some new Fallout is Dragons this week! Wow! It’s almost like it’s a weekly podcast!

Transcript:

Rarity: If we’re going to look for potential “complications,” the first places to look would be our outliers. Our high and low performers.
Twilight Sparkle: Well, top of the list is one Solar Wind at 11.0 wingpower.
Rainbow Dash: Is… that a lot? Hey, wait. I’m flying in this thing, too, right? How much wingpower am I giving?
DM: Well, for you and Fluttershy, it comes down to an Athletics skill challenge and is therefore determined by the dice.
Rainbow Dash: Okay, but what if I just take 10 on it?
DM: Creating the hurricane will be a high-pressure situation; you won’t be able to–
Rainbow Dash: In TRAINING. If I take 10 on the track, right now.
DM: Oh. Then it comes to about 16.5 wingpower.
Twilight Sparkle: That’s 77% stronger than anypony else!
DM: Well, you are PCs. And… did you just math that out in your head right now?
