The biggest weakness Rayner has is his basal, predatory instinct, which is triggered by the smell of bodily glitter.
The humanized pegasus is fully aware of this and often employs himself as a diversion, or at least as a punching bag for the Sue, while his partner does the dirty work. This typically doesn't help against Sues who are often much better at fighting than he is, however, and more often than not, he will be on the losing side if he faces off against a Sue head-on numerous instances of such beatdowns have given him a high pain tolerance and a determination to win, but it often doesn't amount to much without outside help. He is, however, fairly athletic, and a skilled close-combat fighter as well. Rayner is based on a pegasus, specifically a genderbent version of Rainbow Dash, but he does not have any of the powers that correspond to the character in question. He will prefer carnivorous disguises in non-human settings, and if disguised as a pony in his home continuum, he will always have the same arrangement of predator teeth. Unlike other pony-based characters, Rayner is a passionate carnivore, courtesy of his homefic, and his dentition reflects that fact his incisors are pointed and interlocking, and long canines are perfect for ripping out the throats of Mary Sues. He also wears a rainbow-colored scarf, which doubles as a convenient napkin for when his face gets messy. His jeans have several rips, and his shoes are blue and white with blue wings sprouting Hermes-style from the heels. His cutie mark, which is the same as Rainbow Dash's because he is derived from her, is located on his left cheek.īlitz frequently wears aviator's clothing, such as two different jackets (light blue with white sleeves for general use, darker Wonderbolts blue for heavy duty missions). He wears his hair in a mullet, with a warmer red/orange/yellow front and a cooler green/blue/purple party-style in the back his hair is also usually framed with a pair of blue pilot's goggles which he always wears in flight. He is quite short for his age, at only 4'8", but muscular and athletic (You don't clear clouds as a day job without giving your abs a really good workout), with long arms and big feet. In this case, he is essentially a genderbent, humanized version of Rainbow Dash, but with personalized characteristics. Unlike other agents from his home continuum, Rayner is one of the subjects of the anthropomorphization/gijinka trend, which presents the a non-human character with a human appearance.
