Introduction

 

The beginning, 5 years ago. (Day of the fallout)

 

5 years ago, Equestria was a land of peace and harmony, its inhabitants believed in equal coexistence under the rulers Princess Celestia and Princess Luna. Under the two Alicorns the land thrived and prospered, making strides in cultural relations and technology. After the crowning of Princess Twilight, science became a more popular field in pony culture and further expanded until they had developed electronics and even the first Artificial Intelligence. It wasn’t much longer until the ponies began to consider the prospect of another threat to Equestria. The elements of harmony were becoming a thing of the past, more radical solutions were considered. In no time at all the first Atomic weapon was developed and then produced en masse. When the Princess’ heard of this development, an internal feud began. The Princess, still believing in peace and harmony, wanted the weapons destroyed and to return to the simpler times. The advisor to Celestia urged her to reconsider, that Equestria had come too far to return to candles and wood fires. When they tried to stop him, he took control over the Atomic arsenal and fired them at the local populous, starting with Ponyville. The Princess’ had no choice but to stand down or see their entire kingdom and its ponies wiped out. It’s rumoured that they were thrown in the Castle dungeon in Canterlot; most say they were executed by the Advisor. Canterlot was turned into a literal fortress, and he turned the other opposing cities into ash just to prove a point. Those loyal to the Monarchy fled the capital and moved into the now irradiated Bad Lands, setting up outposts and settlements wherever the radiation was least present. Now, only Canterlot remains intact, the other towns and cities are in ruin. Survivors roam the land, some in search of shelter, and others in search of blood. At the Wonderbolts academy, the once Flight display group have become one of the most elite Rebel gangs west of Ponyville. Any other survivors head there, hearing the promises of shelter and protection from the Advisors soldiers, and the mutants of the Bad Lands. With the land in ruin, ponies turning on each other and supplies limited, will the survivors keep to their values? Or will they be bent by the new era?




General Information

 

The setting is the Wonderbolts Academy, one of the last few intact areas of Equestria which was mostly untouched by the blast and now serves as a base of operations for the surviving Wonderbolts and those loyal to the cause. The ponies living there will have a fairly good standard of living in comparison with the rest of the world. There will be electricity for most of the day and enough running water for survival and also a small block of latrines (Showers and toilets). Obviously the food will have to be replenished as it’s eaten and the generators need fuel which will have to be scavenged for. This is all on the Island and the clouds surrounding the Academy as seen from the Episode at the Wonderbolt Academy. Usually the weather is neutral but with possible storms and the occasional radiation shower which is lethal. Bear in mind the Wonderbolts and other survivors have been through quite a lot and are now in a state of mixed feeling. Some characters may be only twisted by the experience, others may be broken by it. Whether you want your character to remain fairly normal or become a bit crazy is your choice. Of course orders still have to be followed and if you start trying to kill your teammates then expect to be shot at.

 

Rules and Recommendations

 

For this RP Grim dark is obviously accepted to a limit and Firearms (guns) have been allowed. Technology will be of the Fallout/Civil War era of Equestrian history (which would be tech from about 40-50 years ahead of our current time) and may be relatively intact but worn down however in some cases it’s repairable. I'd also allow drifter OC's that may just arrive at the Academy in search of shelter and help who are not there currently at all. If you know nothing about the Fallout Equestria series i suggest you at least look into some of it but preferably read it. However if you've played the game it's pretty much the same but ponyfied with some new characters. More developed OC’s would be appreciated as i’m planning for this to be a fairly detailed RP. Having someone write two or three lines as a response isn’t up to standard for this RP as this will be longer, so try to plan out what you’re going to write. You’re allowed to have a fight sequence with an NPC you’ve met in the same paragraph but keep in mind you can’t just write “And then my OC ran at them chopping their head off”. You’d have to write in the NPC’s response to the threat and then give them a fair shot, the only exception would be a stealth kill however you can’t always get stealth kills so make it appropriate to the situation. Remember that you can’t God mode so eventually your OC has to take some hits. Realism is also applicable, you can’t take on 20 enemies with machine guns by yourself, so don’t try it.

 

Application Draft (Please fill out all the necessary info)

 

Spoiler

 

 

((This is a reboot of an old Fallout RP i set up a while ago before i left. It died because i was a pivotal character who suddenly left because i joined the Army. I'm not back and not going anywhere for quite some time so i decided to do a reboot of it as it had a great response previously. I'm also doing this as an effort to revive Role playing for the server and a large amount of people liked survival type RP's. Hopefully this will gain a similar number of participants and when i feel the numbers a high enough i will make an actual RP thread.))

What would you rather it be called then? 'That RP which had a load of bombs drop in it and then a lot of things died and it's similar to that game called Fallout?' It's just easier for people. Like I said, I had real life commitments to attend to but i'm back for a while so T thought i'd reboot with RP being dead and all. This time i'm not going to leave half way into it.

You said you can be others Races besides ponies. Where does the Gryphon Empire stand in the middle of all this?

I'd just use "apocalypse rp".

Causes less confusion.

Well they'd be a threat to the advisor so let's say that they got nuked as well. Most of their Kingdom has been destroyed so any survivors have gone into Equestria as it's partially habitable.

Hmm
Is this the fanon backstory? I only just recently started listening to the audiobook of the fanfic and I thought it was the zebras who bombed everything...? Or was this a cover-up by the advisor? I'm just wondering...
But I will join because I kind of enjoyed the last one.

*Looks at title, then at rp information*

Ok, I'll join.



((Edit: Used wrong character, this should be fixed now;))


Character Name: Lightning Cloudwing

Species: Male Pegasus

Appearance: A dark grey coated pegasus pony with navy blue eyes and a black mane and tail.

Cutie Mark: A storm cloud with a lightning bolt.

Talent: His talent is manipulating lightning weather.

Personality: Calm. He gets sad after thinking about his past. When he doesn't, he is bored all the time.

Supplies: Worn Low-Caliber Sub-Machine Gun

Bio: Lightning Cloudwing was a pegasus from Canterlot that studied weather, and quickly learned how to use his pegasus magic to easily control clouds. At young age, he manipulated a cloud to cast a lightning bolt.

However, the peace and harmony in Equestria were gone after the advisor sent atomic bombs across the land. Lightning's parents got killed by those weapons on their travel across the Griffon Empire, which led to Lightning having a lot of depression and he grew hatred towards the advisor.

He is now at the Wonderbolts base, with only one wish in his life; to be able to kill the advisor and return the Harmony back to Equestria.


Status: Survivor

Rolling with what I had last time.. I really loved the story.. I tweaked it a bit and added a few details here and there. 

 

 

 

Username: Harshwhinny

 

Character Name: AcidRain

 

Species: Pegasus

 

Appearance: 

dfxcvr.png

 

Cutie Mark:  A rain-cloud with a descending lightning bolt from it. 

 

Talent: Strategist, specializing in covert operations. Other notable talents are: Melee proficiency, non-lethal tactics , and weather manipulation.

 

Personality: She is brash in some of her decision's and very stubborn when she knows her idea is the best coarse to take. She tends to keep to her self drawing and playing music during her spare time. Being a younger pony she is immature and ill-mannered since she is only twenty, but behind a blade she is as lethal as anyone on the ground. But don't let that fool you she hates to take a life of another pony deeming to stick to non-lethal manners to get what she wants.  

 

Supplies: She carry's on her: one small J.R.E.A. Officer castle forged spring steel sword on her left side, and a pack draped over her haunches, inside this contains all her gear:  experimental night-vision goggles, a stun gun with plenty of ammunition, food for about 2-5 days 10 days if rationed, a compound Crossbow with non-lethal and lethal bolts, one pistol with multiple attachments as well as different rounds of ammunition, and four sets of cloths- One black turtle neck, a J.R.E.A. (Junior Royal Equestrian Army) Uniform with Lieutenant bars on it,  her great great great grandmothers old Wonderbolts officers uniform (that includes the old flight uniform too), and a Canterlot dress for slipping into the city. 

 

Biography: Acidrain was born a few years before the blast in Canterlot, she was raised by her mother and grandmother during the time Celestia was battling her adviser daily over government issues before the bombs dropped. As a foul her head was filled with stories of the olden days of Equestria about the great Commander Hurricane, the founding of Cloudsdale, her grandmothers home city; the legendary Six, and of the Wonderbolts. Who her great great grandfather, and great great great grandmother where apart of, back when much was different where candles where the main light source. She was ignited by these old heroic stories grandma  told her especially the ones about her great great great grandmother who was a major in the Wonderbolts during the Great Griffon Wars and head strategist for them. She knew all about her battles, where she traveled all over the world, and the times she met the Princesses. She looked up to these stories and to her great great great grandmother and grandmother as a role model....

 

Acid grew up in the upper middle class section of Canterlot, forced to attend J.R.E.A. along with the rest of her class level to learn to one day become a R.E.A. member to protected Canterlot as their role was. Acids family was well known, her father was a lieutenant Royal Guard as a strategist before he passed away propping their family up once more. Placing their family as a minor noble house due to their rich military background traced back to Commander Hurricanes time with her great (x6) Grandfather. She had many eyes on her in school watching to see if Acid would have that spark of a strategist that my family's line was famous for. Acid quickly climbed the ranks of the J.R.E.A. to Staff Sargent and was to become a Lieutenant and go into officers school later that year. As days went by Acid finally met the Wonderbolts during a air show with her Grandmother, even though Acid was overjoyed to see her Idols her Grandmother had a face of dismay for she knew these where just posers since half of their moves where not Wonderbolt techniques, and all the members faces where unfamiliar to her...  

 

Three weeks before Acid was to go into Officers school her grandmother passed away one night, her great great great grandmothers uniform left to her as a gift. That day changed her she started to isolate herself away from others at school and look back more onto history finding many inconsistency's between story's these passed few years. Her eyes slowly opened up to the truths of this lie Canterlot was and that the Princesses where no longer in charge, The bombing being something more dastardly then self defense. A fact hidden away from the middle class and lower inhabitants of Canterlot who still think she in in charge in her palace. So she started to dig around Canterlot learning the truths till she could no longer bear that the Old Equestria she was told about in her grandmothers stories, and in school was gone and was replaced by this horrible land ran buy some shadowy figure. 

 

She then took up arms reading books and using the knowledge her grandmother told her to become a ample fighter and a top notch strategist. One day she started organizing a coo inside Canterlot to take part of the lower city and make a rebellion, going under the code name: The Crimson Knights, Propaganda flooded the lower class slowly about the Knights and their leader The Crimson Rose (Acid Rains alias)  . The plan would have worked but a insider spilled her plan to the government in-charge so their family would get an estate and nobility. The whole operation that took years fell apart and many where arrested,soon after the government found out about Acid Rain being the Crimson Rose and ransomed her mother for her to turn herself in. So she did, Acid stepped upon palace gates floor looking right at two company's of Royal Guards one on each side and a large steel gate, On the other side with the Guard Commander was her mother tied down on the ground by his feet. Acid Rain slowly took a step forward only to see the Commands blade fall upon her mother cleaving her head from her body. The two Company's rushed at her as she turned to flee barely escaping capture and leaving Carterlot, the life she knew to the wastes with everything she could carry from her abandoned home as she fled.

 

Drifter: but Wonderbolt and R.E.A. runs deep in her blood.
