As I send my subjects back down, I am concerned for their safety. May they take my blessings with them, for what is down there would make even the toughest Gryphon shake in fear. I wish we didn't have to send them, but we need Equestria back.
-Celestia
In the year of 2014, several astronomers saw a large collection of asteroids crash into a faraway moon. Over the course of 2 years, the astronomers watched the moon slowly turn black and crumble in on itself. They were mystified on what happened, until they viewed the same asteroids hurtling towards Equestria. The astronomers alerted the Princesses and the construction of the Lunar Station began. After 5 years, the station was done. As everypony was being placed on ships to launch them to the station, the asteroids crashed on the planet. From the asteroids came strange, black creatures. There was a large amount of chaos after that. 87% of the population of Equestria made it aboard the Lunar Station. With differences put aside, even changelings were allowed to escape to the station. The rest of the population was taken by the creatures now named Darklings.
Now, in the year of 2031, it has been 10 years since the "Dark Incident". A weakness for the creatures was found: pure white light. Normal sunlight is yellow and not close enough to do damage to the Darklings, so the Princesses produced a giant wave of the light with her magic destroying all traces of the creatures accept for the original crash site, The Everfree Forest.
You and several others have been chosen to man a ship and return to Equestria. You must check to see if the land is hospitable and if the Darklings are gone. You must restart Equestria.
(The Lunar Station is on the moon FYI)
What Nopony Knows:
The Darklings were created in the farthest, darkest regions of the Universe. They were a virus, attacking planets, draining them of their resources, and destroying them. They have finally made it to Equestria and are trying to destroy it as well.
The Darklings speak using pops and clicks, like a beetle, which are unintelligible to anyone other than other Darklings.
There are 8 types of Darklings:
Spoiler
Scoutling: These Darklings are simply black creatures. They have milky, cream colored eyes and are the most prolific of the types. They stand on 2 legs, like all Darklings, and have razor sharp claws. They also have 2 antennae on their head that look like they are wearing a jester hat.
Hypnoling: Small Darklings that are about the size of armadillos. They have pink eyes, no arms, and short stubby legs. They don't have any attacks in their normal form, but they can jump 15 feet in the air. They try to jump on victim's heads, to use their only power. If they can attach to someone's head, they can control them. Anything the victim could do, the Hypnoling can now make them do. The only way to stop the Hypnoling's control is to kill it. While the victim can't stop the control, strong-willed characters can resist, halting some of the Hypnoling's actions.
Titanling: There are only 4 of these creatures and they all guard the Darkling Nest. They are giant versions of the Hunterlings. They can still throw their bodies, but the force of the impact will instantly kill you. Avoid these.
Darkling Queen: A large "master" Darkling. She has 6 red eyes, which can shoot lasers. The bulk of her body is a large fleshy sack, where she produces Darkling eggs. All Darklings follow her will unquestionably. Her body is extremely tough, and she is has all the abilities of the other Darklings. (except the Fearling) If need be, she can also tear the egg sack off of her body. There is 1 for every hive.
Fearling: These are the most powerful Darklings. They take the shape of a jet black alicorn with startling white eyes. They have super speed, can climb walls, can shoot razor sharp particles of rock out of its hooves, spit acid, can fire energy blasts from their horns, have super strength, can control fire and ice, induce fear in anyone with an eerie wail, fly, and turn into a "liquid" state to slide under doors and through cracks. There is only 1 (Thank God), and if you see it, don't bother running, you're already dead.
There are other unknown types.
Rules:
1. Normal RP Rules.
2. Stuff will go down, be prepared for your character to take some abuse.
3. Romance is allowed, but keep it PG-13.
4. Your character has been trained for survival. Knowledge of edible plants and berries, how to clean water, etc.
5. The Survival group live in Neighagra Falls.
6. There are only 4 towns that are not massively destroyed: Manehatten, Las Pegasus, Cloudsdale, and the Crystal Empire. The Crystal Empire has little to no damage. Manehatten has several fallen skyscrapers, and has a small pocket hive of Darklings, but is otherwise untouched. Las Pegasus and Cloudsdale are the only towns that have no damage. All other towns have some sinkholes, many destroyed buildings, and many pockets of Darklings.
In this RP, You may have 2 characters. But there is a very important system. There are 2 groups, The Mission and The Survival. The Mission contains the ponies/gryphons heading back down to Equestria to scope it out. The Survival contains the ponies/gryphons that avoided the Darklings and survived on Equestria. You can create either a mare or a stallion for each group, or a mare and a stallion for 1 group. You can't have one of your characters be a mare on the Mission group and another be a mare on the Mission group.

Here is my Application for reference:
Spoiler
Name: Light Spectrum
Age: 19.75
Kind: Pegasus
Gender: Mare
Group: Mission
Description: Orange coat, yellow eyes, and rainbow mane and tail. She also wears a double interlocking gold band on one of her legs, which she never takes off.
Special Talent or Cutie Mark: None, Unknown
Bio: Light Spectrum was born in Ponyville, 2 years before the meteors were discovered, to her mother Crescent Moon, her father, Firework, and her sister, Moonshine. While Spectrum lived a carefree life as a young filly, her family was poor and she had to work hard to earn money for them at the age of 6. She help ponies on their rock farms, worked and Sweet Apple Acres, and even set up the Town Hall for a party by herself. However, unlike her sister Moonshine, Spectrum never stopped working until the job was finished, no matter how hard or long. At the age of 7, Spectrum's father, noticing her unlimited energy, asked her to take some time off her chores to train her body to enter an upcoming cash prize speed contest for pegasai.
Spectrum then started her hard workout regime. She trained her body tirelessly. When she was 8, the contest had started, and she had a wingpower of 10.8. She easily won the contest, but the excitement was short lived when the Princesses told everypony about the asteroids. As Spectrum's family gathered their supplies and waited to board the ships, the asteroids crashed down. Spectrum, her sister, and her mother were able to make it onto the ships, but her father was hit by a Huntling body part. Spectrum turned around and tried to get him free, but the Darklings were running toward them. Firework gave Spectrum his saddlebag full of his supplies and gave her a kiss on the forehead. With that, Spectrum flew away into the transit ship and vowed to do anything it took to destroy the Darklings. As Spectrum looked through her father's supplies, she found his lucky gold band. She decided to keep it as a momentum of her father.
Since then Spectrum has lived on the Station with her family and continued to train herself to peak condition. She improved her wingpower to 19.9 and trained in several martial arts, however she fights the best with her Bo staff. At the age of almost 20, she learns that Princess Celestia is sending a team down to Equestria to assess the situation. Spectrum instantly signed up, ready for the chance to return to her home.
Starting Weapon: Light Plasma Rifle
Secondary Weapon: A Bo Staff that has been enchanted to be indestructible. It can turn into a ball for easy storage.
Other: Spectrum has a rare energy that never stops flowing. She has never given up and always fights as long as she can.

Name: Emerald Bloom
Age;20
Kind: Unicorn
Gender: Stallion
Group: mission
Description: He has a dark purple pelt with a light green/dark green main and tall both would need a bit of combing to get to even a manageable level.
Special talent/ cutie mark: His cutie mark is an Emerald with a flower or Orchid in the center which represents his love for nature and alchemy.
Bio: Emerald Bloom has both a father and a mother yet no siblings just like his father and also like his father he is a well known for his alchemy and started research on the subject at a young age (about the age of the CMCs). He soon even came to par with his father being able to recreat almost all of his father experiments including the new light crystals. The day the meteor struck should have been the day the new type of gem would be introduced as an alternate light source but, that would never happen. Now because of his skill in the field of alchemy and his ability to create light crystals he has been selected for the mission.
Weapon: Plasma rifle
Second Weapon: A tampered light crystal that will act as a mine when a Darkling steps on it. The explosion of light is very effective to average darklings but, stronger ones such as the Titanlings, the Terrorling and the queen would only be stunned. Of course he could make more but, for now he only has one.

After a moon of good sales she jad earned enough for her own house. She kept up her stand untill she was attacked. The attacker didn't have a reason to fight back but she fought back. She soon found out she had fought and killed a pony who was recently implanted with something. The pony was innocent. That night she walked home late and got in bed after washing off the blood in the shower.
She had woken up in the middle of the night, her parents werent in their room like they usually are. She grabbed her bag, packing some stuff just in case, her Lightdagger at her side she headed outside to look around. Violet was only 12. Now it was 6 years later and she was heading on with The Mission Group, she was hoping to find her parents or somepony she knew.

((Bio isnt too short is it?))
Edited by Blazing Wind, 26 October 2014 - 06:31 PM.
An orange coated Unicorn stallion with short brown mane and tail. He has sapphire blue colored eyes.
Cutie Mark: A burning rose. His talent being his knowledge of agriculture and a flaming strong spirit.
Bio: Flame Flower was born into a caring family, having an older brother and a younger sister. His brother learned him about flowers and herbs, and Flame earned his cutie mark; a burning rose. When he grew up, they were informed of the Darklings and tried to hurry towards the Lunar Station. However, they didn't make it in time and had to stay at Equestria.
Flame's father spent all the time training Flame in basic survival. Flame didn't get to spend some time with his family, but he knew that his father did this training because he loved him. Flame couldn't possibly think of dying out there.
When Flame reached 15, he and his mother were the only survivors left of their family.
He once was in a cave with his mother, seeing a weird hybrid of the Darkling. He watched in terror as it killed his mother with some kind of glowing acid. He managed to escape away from the place and stayed with a group of survivors.
He is now a pony with some hope in this world, and wants every pony to survive.
Starting Weapon: Stone dagger
Other: While he isn't good with magic, being a Low-Level Unicorn, he has focused only on Levitation and Illumination spells.
Edited by Unicorn Hunter, 11 November 2014 - 08:03 AM.
I have 2 problems with this. As a survivor, most weapons would be very weak. I think that i can allow low tier weapons such as stone tools, but light weapons are powerful . Its like having all homeless people having access to bazookas or something. Its not really realistic.
Also, Light spells are allowed, but pure light spells drain your energy way faster than any other magic. I can allow the use of light spells, but don't use them very much, because overuse of them can kill you.
And on the survivor subject, the survivor group lives in a hollowed out mountain with no top. there are a few hidden caves to enter it, but for the most part, the survivors stay there. They already have rudimentary shelters and some weak gardens. Think of it like The Maze Runner. They had their little civilization, and the "runners" observe changes to the world outside the mountain and collect supplies.
Anyway, change the light dagger part and your accepted. But you might want to expand your Bio a bit as well.
Also, 1 more mission character and we will start.

Name: FC
Type: Half Pony, Half Amphithere Dragon
Age: 17
Gender: Male
Description: an orange colored Alicorn height pony with very large wings and blonde mane and tail that is black on the edges
Background: Unknown
Can not die, very OP, uses powers to help others, suspects there is a connection between the Darklings and the Darkness Evolved, extremely fast and strong, can turn into an amphithere dragon, powers over Coldfire, and can summon Solid Light weapons (will prevent others from dying because of his powers, which HelixSpectrum knows from our conversation on our powers)
Cutie Mark: a red dragon shaped symbol
Helix is the only one who knows my character well
Will go into danger first because of being able to copy abilities and then modify them
Edited by FCtheHalfDragon, 14 August 2014 - 07:47 PM.
Im sorry, but your going to have to make you character,
1. Be way less OP
2. Not be an Alicorn
and 3. Not be half dragon.
Sorry FC, but this isn't a Guardians RP. For this you have the wrong character. Perhaps, one day, I will actually make the Guardian RP...but I'm way too lazy to do it now.
This is the least OP character I have, he just fell from space and landed at your feet, he can hover so you do not need to carry him. Happy now?
Looks like Space Core except his eye color is White.
Bio: a special Personality Core built for combat, this core was built at Equestria Laboratories specifically built by Shadow Blade to help his friend Light Spectrum in fighting the Darklings. This core acts like a personal assistant to Light Spectrum and is quite good fighting off darkness related creatures. This core also has a function similar to a supercharged Gravity Gun since it can lift heavy objects despite its small size by using a beam to lift objects. Also acts like a floating flashlight.

Description: A white coated unicorn with yellow hair with blue streaks and a bowler hat (don't question it)
Special Talent and/or Cutie Mark: A yellow star because of his talent at astronomy
Bio: Before the incident, Star was brought up into a small family, being the only child of two pretty wealthy parents. His father was an astronomer while his mother was a science teacher. He was raised into a polite and kind way of live, knowing to say his pleases and thank yous. His father owned an observatory on a big hill and always took little Solar to view the stars.
One day, Star found a new constellation in the night starry sky while looking in his father's telescope. After his discovery, he received his cutie mark, which was a star. Star quickly learned how to fully use the observatory and decided to follow in his father's hoovesteps when the Darklings invaded. He was to be put onto one of the rockets when he fell into a hole and watched as the world was being destroyed before his eyes. As he father and mother caught up to him, they ran to the observatory and hid until the end of the world happened.
As the horror stopped, Star and his parents walked out side and saw the outcome. As they walked out side, Star's father game him a gift for surviving this far. He gave him his bowler hat (Yes, again with the bowler hat). They retreated to Manehattan and hoped for better when later, a Darkling attacked, killing Star's parents. As it was about to strike Solar, it hesitated. It then stepped back and ran off, with Star wondering what the heck just happened, just before grieving about his parents. As he made his way to Manehattan, he stumbled across a small group a survivors moving to a mountain, and Star tagged along, awaiting his arrival at what was going to be his new home.
When he reached the mountain, he met a tool crafter, where he was taught how to build a weapon in order to survive. He built himself a gun in which he designed by himself, and continued to learn more about engineering and science even after the incident, along with secretly trying to learn about the Darkling's behaviors himself due to curiosity.
Starting Weapon: A small pony officer's sword he found *OR* if that does not work then a small metal knife
Secondary Weapon: The ONOPP (Obviously Not OP Pistol) which Solar Star built himself
Other: He does have a sort of gentleman accent and acts like one too, along with being nice and kind to his fellow survivors.

I'll make the real RP now. And srry for the long wait on the replys. I have tests coming up.
Bio: a special Personality Core built for combat, this core was built at Aperture Science in the Gaia Terra Dimension, specifically built by FC to help his friend Light Spectrum when they were fighting the Darkness Evolved. This core acts like a personal assistant to Light Spectrum and is quite good fighting off darkness related creatures. This core also has a function similar to a supercharged Gravity Gun since it can lift heavy objects despite its small size by using a beam to lift objects. Also acts like a floating flashlight.
Also you should change the Bio, this universe is unrelated to the Guardians and Darkness Evolved universe
The Obviously Not OP Pistol (or ONOPP for short) is a weapon created by me to not be that powerful in RPs, so people are not like "Oh, he has an OP gun. Ban him" or what not. I'll try to not use it as often as well.
Also, I highly doubt that this idea is dead, and HelixSpectrum is still active.
But I wonder if we should wait much longer for more players to write apllications.
If Helix is inactive, I would say the task of starting the thread falls to one of you. His set goal has already been surpassed, I believe, and waiting any longer would be condemning this to an early death as applicants start to drift away.
I'm sure he would understand if that's the case, but you should PM him first just in case.
Edited by High Orbit, 17 September 2014 - 09:09 AM.
Sorry guys, but i'm going through some test prep in school right now. Im going to have to scrap this RP. (And since it was the last RP created before the new RP Guidelines were made, I think that that's a good idea) I'll just stick to posting instead of making RPs for now. If anyone wants to take over this RP or my second one, thats fine with me.
Well, thats too bad.
I dont even know for how long this will be remembered.
If anyone would like to make the main thread and lead the roleplay, feel free to step forward
Name: arcane twist
Age: 23
Kind: Changeling
Gender: male
Group: mission
Description: he just looks kinda like a normal changeling although he usually uses the disguise of a unicorn that has a purple coat with black spots and a dark blue mane
Special Talent and/or Cutie Mark: he is a changeling, although he put on his pony disguise a magical rune shape because he thought it looked neat
Bio: (hey arcane twist) he was just 13(when his parents built a strange mach- I'll stop now) when he was whisked away to the space station and his life was changed, suddenly his life was filled with ponies and he was taught not to prey on them after all, of course his kinds actions weren't forgotten easily and he wasn't liked by quite a few of the ponies he met, forcing him to finish learning how to properly disguise so as to avoid all the horrible remarks and beatings he would of otherwise gotten. 10 years later when the job came up to head back down to see if it was safe he applied immediately so as to get off the space station so he didn't have to live in fear that he would be attacked if he forgot to disguise before walking out of the house
Starting Weapon: light plasma rifle
Secondary Weapon:combat shovel, be useful cause he can dig out areas for bases and such plus worst comes to worst he can knock the darklings away with it
Other: his black spots are actually a permanent effect (because when he rushed himself to finish learning disguise magic he learnt a flawed version and hasn't gotten the chance to figure it out) and are on all of his disguises although he can change their position so as to hide them If he has somewhere to put them
Description: Light grey coat with crimson red eyes, along with a droopy black mane.
Cutie Mark/Talent: A piece of coal, due to her life set to mining coal.
Bio: So.. You say you want to know my life, eh? Well.. I guess you can know. After all, I don't have many ponies to talk to. Anywho, I was infact born in a coal mine. Not exactly the safest place, but whatever, I survived. There, I was taught to do nothing but mine. No back-talking, no disrespect, no nothing. Just mining coal and feasting on the cold, tough bread and whatever scraps of food left for the hungry workers. We couldn't use magic or wings, which made it two times as tough.
When I was.. What, nine? I finally was registered as a worker. Day by day, I slammed my pick into the hard cobblestone walls, breaking them and finding little ores. Worst part is, you had to bring in at least six pieces of coal or the boss would yell at you.
Then, I got sick of it. I wanted to learn how to fly, not sit in a cold mine all day and search for black rocks. Then, one day, while gazing out the hole in the side of the mountain that was our mine entrance, there was a sudden smashing noise and a brilliant rainbow peeked into the sky. It was none other than the element of Loyalty, known as Rainbow Dash. It was so amazing that I vowed to do it.
But when I told the other workers, they laughed at me. Even my own mother doubted I could do it. And.. They were right. With my shriveled up wings that had never even flapped, there was no way I could touch the sky.
I still mined coal, but every afternoon when my work was done, I would sneak out and start to practice flying. But that didn't last for long. Someone found out and told the boss. She became angry and cut my wings so I could never fly again. I was furious, and the very next day I ran out, hoping to never see the workers or boss again. My wing feathers eventually grew back, after about four years, but even then the highest I could fly was tree level. I still wanted to achieve my dream. I wanted to do the Sonic Rainboom.
On a sunny morning, I hurled myself off a cliff and unfolded my wings, hoping I wouldn't fall to my death. I shot up into the sky, and got so excited I dived down, hoping I could at least hit the sound barrier. It turns out I did, but it tossed me back, shooting me into the deep sky, a flash of coal dust polluting the clouds. It wasn't exactly a Sonic Rainboom, but the way the sun shimmered off it, making little sparkles looked beautiful. And the best part is, I got my cutie-mark.
I obviously couldn't go back to the Coal Mine, so I decided to stick to the wilderness. Which landed me here. Well.. I'll be going. Seeya.
Starting Weapon: A broken knife
Other: Nothing really.
Sorry for the OP-ish story, I was running out of ideas. Hope I'm okay with this.

When I was.. What, nine? I finally was registered as a worker. Day by day, I slammed my pick into the hard cobblestone walls, breaking them and finding little ores. Worst part is, you had to bring in at least six pieces of coal or the boss would yell at you.
Then, I got sick of it. I wanted to learn how to fly, not sit in a cold mine all day and search for black rocks. Then, one day, while gazing out the hole in the side of the mountain that was our mine entrance, there was a sudden smashing noise and a brilliant rainbow peeked into the sky. It was none other than the element of Loyalty, known as Rainbow Dash. It was so amazing that I vowed to do it.
But when I told the other workers, they laughed at me. Even my own mother doubted I could do it. And.. They were right. With my shriveled up wings that had never even flapped, there was no way I could touch the sky.
I still mined coal, but every afternoon when my work was done, I would sneak out and start to practice flying. But that didn't last for long. Someone found out and told the boss. She became angry and cut my wings so I could never fly again. I was furious, and the very next day I ran out, hoping to never see the workers or boss again. My wing feathers eventually grew back, after about four years, but even then the highest I could fly was tree level. I still wanted to achieve my dream. I wanted to do the Sonic Rainboom.
On a sunny morning, I hurled myself off a cliff and unfolded my wings, hoping I wouldn't fall to my death. I shot up into the sky, and got so excited I dived down, hoping I could at least hit the sound barrier. It turns out I did, but it tossed me back, shooting me into the deep sky, a flash of coal dust polluting the clouds. It wasn't exactly a Sonic Rainboom, but the way the sun shimmered off it, making little sparkles looked beautiful. And the best part is, I got my cutie-mark.
I obviously couldn't go back to the Coal Mine, so I decided to stick to the wilderness. Which landed me here. Well.. I'll be going. Seeya.

Description: Light grey coat with crimson red eyes, along with a droopy black mane.
Cutie Mark/Talent: A piece of coal, due to her life set to mining coal.
Bio: So.. You say you want to know my life, eh? Well.. I guess you can know. After all, I don't have many ponies to talk to. Anywho, I was infact born in a coal mine.

OK so I have this system I don't know if you guys want to do this two but, for the whole RP but, anyway i put my OC's relationships in a number set that includes Friendship, Romantic and Romantic + points. The points are gained by other characters as the RP goes on and the characters interact. Good interactions bring the points up and bad will bring them down. The base of these points is friendship points that anyone can earn and to be friends that OC must gain 20 like so
Violet cry=5/20
once 20 points are gained it can go two ways one where the oc continues on the friend scale or if they start to have romantic feelings then the pair can now gain romance points which are worth 5 friendship points. Yet you cannot exchange existing friendship points to romance points so you have to gain more by other interactions. Romance will appear as so
Friendship points
Violet cry 5/20
Romance points
Violet cry 0/20
With romance point you can do a number of things depending on your character. You can keep gaining and make the relationship grow or you can exchange them for friendship by calmly ending the relationship. The thing is if you break of the relationship it could also cause three things 1)lose points and not gain any friendship 2) lose all points gained and 3) loose all points and go negative. If you decide to keep the romance going though you won't instantly be girlfriend/filliyfriend and boyfriend/coltfriend. You must gain 5 romance before that will take effect sometimes it will be sooner or earlier but, the average is 5. Next once you gain 20 romance points (100 friendship points) you will be able to gain Romance + which like romance can go a multiple of ways. 1) you can go up 2) decide to go slow and revert them to 5 romance points each 3) just become friends and gain convert all the points gained to frienship or 4) break up for good and lose all points gained with a chance of going negative. The romance + would appear as so
Friendship
Violet cry=5/20
Romance
Violet cry=0/20
Romance +
Violet cry=0/20
Once romance plus is at 20 (100 romance or 500 friendship) then Emerald or whatever OC gains them will propose which will either be rejected restarting the romance+ points and a yes will have the characters married and all other romance/ romance + points towards other OC's get exchanged for friendship points. In all a complete list should look like this.
Emerald Orchid
Friendship
Violet cry=5/20
Light core=4/20
Romance
Violet cry=0/20
Romance +
Violet cry=0/20
Oh yes and just because your on the Romance + list dosen't mean anything untill you have those points.
If you guys think this system isn't needed I will just keep it to myself but, if you want to use it then I'll make a whole bunch of sheets.

Now the question is do I make one big database and update it regularly or you guys make your own and we keep it secret from each other untill the RP gets to certain points?
I like it how many of the characters/things you guys use are Half Life/Portal based. Good job, as I used to spend countless hours of my life looking up information on its wiki on the same universe game series. And I think it is very interesting. If you need help with combining (Combine lol) and pointing out references, I'll be glad to help.
Lol, why am I even doing this?
*edit*
That chart above is actually a good idea too. Keep up the good work.
Name: Blazing Wind
Age: 18
Kind: Pegasus/Shark Pony
Gender: Mare
Group: Survival
Description: http://mlpcreationis...ished-489723358
Special Talent and/or Cutie Mark: A seed, dark brown on the bottom and light brown on the top
Bio:
Sometimes poison joke can really put a toll on you if you don't find a cure. You can sometimes push it down, but it always find a way to the surface. Sometimes if not cured in time it could become permenant. That was Blazings position at that moment. She was swimming in a lake in her shark pony form, when a black creature she'd never seen attacked her. She hurried home, taking her 3 kids, Amethyst, Oculus and Bright Shade, to shelter where they would spend the rest of their lives. Blazing left her children with the ponies inside, hurrying to go find Shade.
A few times she thought she saw him. She thought he was there, but they were only hallucinations. She wandered Equestria for many moons, unknowing of the ship that would keep her safe. Eventually, she returned to the shelter to find it abandoned. She flew home to cloudsdale, crying for long times. She rarely ate and she was lonely. Nopony was with her. She gathered all her strenght and decided to look for them. She is still wandering Equestria, searching for her children and her husband to this day.
Starting Weapon: A rusty horshoe (You'll be amazed by how badly it'll hurt)
Secondary Weapon:
Other: She can become a shark-pony sometimes
(I have an addiction to sharks, hope that Shark-Pony part wasn't too OP)
Kind: Changeling (He usually stays disguised as a unicorn)
Gender: Stallion
Group: Survival
Description: A tall, grey unicorn stallion, with a big black and grey mane and tail. He looks very similar when undisguised, just with changeling details.
Special talent / cutie mark: His cutie mark is a dark, star-like symbol, but what it represents is unclear.
Bio:
Shade was hatched inside a changeling hive that many are familiar with. There was a couple in the hive that was very different from the other changelings, and they ran away, taking Shade with them.
As he and his parents lived among the ponies of Ponyville, keeping their true race a secret, they had a peaceful life. That all changed when he turned five,.. the royal guard was told to patrol Ponyville after being told that a changeling was sighted there. They were trained to see through a changeling's disguise, and when they came to Shade's house, they killed his parents like they were ordered to. Somehow, they could not see through Shade's disguise, which allowed him to run away unharmed.
Shade took refuge in the Everfree until he was nine years old, which was when he finally went back to Ponyvile. Once he returned, he kept the profile of a very friendly colt that wouldn't hurt a fly. He played the part all to well, and he eventually because fearless for that reason.
At the age of twelve, somepony found out what he really was and reported it to the royal guard. After a long time, he was given a pardon after somepony unknown to him convinced Celestia and Luna to let him go.
After he was released, he met a pony who ended up being his soul mate. They had many adventures together, and eventually married.
They had an amazing family, with three kids, living in peace. That was when they heard of the darklings. He was attacked by one on his way home one day, and he was forced to lead it away so his family wouldn't be harmed. Once he came back, he found his wife, Blazing Wind, had left, and his children were about to be mauled by a darkling. He had managed to save them, and taught them the survival skills they would need. They separated eventually, the children forming a small survival group of their own, still alive to this day thanks to their father.
During the time he had stayed on Equestria, avoiding the darklings, he had joined one of the largest groups of survivors. He kept many secrets, and fought many battles, but the knowledge that his family was safe gave him a reason to keep going.
Starting weapon: An near-indestructible cutlass from his past. (He upgrades it every now and then, but its not too powerful)
Other: He is very adept in battle and transportation spells, and he has an extremely strong will.

This summer: roleplaying has never been more intense.
Watch as different groups of ponies, that have NO REAL reason to trust eachother, considering the fact they have been with eachother for FIVE MINUTES, kills TONS of darklings using nothing but their guts. (And a little bit of Celestia's emergency insta-kill weapons)
Join Now, on Project Restart.
I can see it in my mind.
Such awesome.
Much lols.

I'd like for anyone to start an interaction with Solar once he has reached the group in Las Pegasus. Maybe wonder if you should kill his pursuer or try to study the hypnoling.
Description: A light grayish color with a small hint of red. She has long blue-ish purple hair. Her eyes are orange, and her cutie mark represents some sort of a flower. She has a scar on her leg, so she hides it with a bandage, and she also has a red bandana on her neck. Picture below.
Spoiler
Special Talent and/or Cutie Mark: It resembles a flower. She's gifted when it comes to nature. She's mostly knowledgeable in this subject, since she was forced to learn about it after the metors, yet she studied it before the disaster took place. Mostly her studies and tests had to do with flowers, herbs, and things that can be used for food.
Bio:
Nightingale was born just a normal filly with a family of 2; her mother, and her. She was 8 (if I'm doing the math right ew math) when the scientists examined the meteor. After the news spread that the ponies would have to leave Equestria, Nightingale was outraged. She didn't want to leave, so she made a decision. She'd stay home, and defend herself. Of course, she was young and naive, and she didn't know how hard this would be.
So, she snuck away when the ponies were being evacuated. How? She doesn't quite remember. Her memory has been erased mostly from this point on, but she can remember bits and pieces. When she first started out, she was attacked and hid for so long. Finally, she gained experience and was able to start fighting the Darklings if needed. As she grew more experienced in survival skills, she noticed she got attacked far too much and tried to get as far away as possible, so she ended up in Neighagra Falls. Over the years, she's grown absolutely emotionless and blunt, always straight to the point and almost never stumbling over her words. Her socializing skills have decreased significantly, but she can still communicate well enough for things to make sense.
Starting Weapon: --
Secondary Weapon: A hoofmade sword. It doesn't do much, but she doesn't have much else. (Guessing this would go in here?)
Other: Nothing, really. It'd probably take a while for her to warm up to a pony, but if needed, she'll trust them temporarily.

The only problem is that the Survival group characters can't have Light weapons if they haven't gotten one from someone in the mission group
I've been wondering. This RP has been going a bit... well, for a lack of better words, more confusing. I'm probably missing something very obvious, but if not, could someone just tell me the summery of whats going on with Shade? And more of the Mission group?

May I ask where everyone is? Like, are they in a certain place in Equestria? I'm looking at a map of Equestria on Google, and it'd be nice for me to know. xD
I think that Flame and Solar are in Las Pegasus, Light Core, Blazing, and Shade are in Everfree forest, but not so sure about anyone else.
