Say hello to Digitalis, or Foxglove as she's known to her friends. She's a child of Smiley and Opiate, and loves plants! Art by me, more info in Alt! #MLP #MLPOC #Zebra #ZebraOC #MyLittlePony #GasMask #OC #OriginalCharacter

Digitalis, known as Foxxy by some of her friends, is a Zebra who was born to a Zebra father as well as a Faceless father, giving her mutant genes. Because of this she doesn't have many stripes so she is often mistaken for a Traditional Earth pony because of the very long tail, which in actuality is a trait from her Zebra Father. She wears a gas mask also like her father, as her lungs were not developed properly, though unlike her father she never takes it off. She's always loved it, and though she's gotten a few funny looks over it, she really doesn't care. She had been given the option to have an alternative respirator but refused it, preferring the mask to anything else. She doesn't talk much but it isn't because she means to be rude, the mask sometimes makes it hard for her to talk so her speech is muffled at times, she talks more through body language which she picked up from her Faceless Father who can't speak at all.

Since she was young Digitalis has always loved flowers, she couldn't smell them as the mask blocked her nose however she loved to look at and touch them. Her favorite flowers of all were Foxgloves, to her they were the most beautiful of all. She was very disappointed when she found that no one else thought so, since they are very poisonous to equines; those who touch, smell or eat them are said to get very very sick. Foxxy found she was able to touch these flowers without getting hives, and since she had the gas mask, the pollen wasn't able to get into her mouth or nose. She learned that parts of the plant could be used for medical and even magical purposes, and so when she was an adult mare, she became a apothicary so she could see these beautiful flowers every day while also helping her fellow equines. She's learned to grow not only Foxgloves, but also other poisonous plants that can be used medically and magically, such as aconitum (also known wolfsbane), centarura, poison joke, and many more.
