Hither I am, fiend. Doth thou find nay pleasure in mine return? Did thou not miss me f'r those thousand years?

I could nev'r hast doubt'd it.

Thou heart is ev'r as cold and bitter as thy fleering tongue. O sister, what a daw thou wast and art.

 

Divider1.gif

 

After the first return of Princess Luna from her thousand year imprisonment, she was soon sent back into isolation by her sister after her heart again became cold. Before she was sent back, the darkened Princess gathered all the power she could muster. It was not enough, however, to hold back the elements from the Tree of Harmony as they pressed all their power upon her in a final flourish before their glow dimming and finally their turn to stone.

 

The Dark One was gone for another thousand years, but Equestria had never been so at risk.

 

Without the power of the Tree of Harmony, Ponyville and every other town in the land was overcome by the power within the Everfree forest by the end of five hundred years. Ponies were wiped out to a quarter of the previous population of the country. Canterlot served as a final fortress for the remainder of the ponies that had survived due to a spell cast many millennia ago by the royals before Celestia and Luna's reign. This served as a permanent barrier from the forces of the Everfree and made the city safe, but a lack of food struck the population and the number of living ponies halved within a hundred years. 

 

Now, Canterlot's population is around 50,000. The problems of famine have stopped, but now a new issue has reared its grinning face towards Equestria at the end of the thousand year banishment.

 

Celestia was found dead when the moon eclipsed the sun. Her sister stood over her body, her coat dark as night and decorated by armour and her cutie mark of a moon. Like a galaxy, her mane flowed behind her head. There was no blood, only shadow. So remained in Equestria.

You are now a member of Nightmare Moon's new Lunar Empire. You are treated as a slave as punishment for all those years that you slept during her beautiful night. Batponies, being the only species she trusts, serve as her guards. The new Queen, as she prefers to be titled, initially drove back the Everfree forest but has now used her strong magic to control it. She wields it as a weapon, using it for prison cells where she keeps traitors and any who will not comply with her demands.

 

Everypony suffers in this new Empire. Some have their opinions on Luna which are, as a whole, negative over positive. These are rarely expressed as all are bound to respect and honour their Queen by law.

 

However, recently in one of the small farming villages, a flower grew with a bud that glowed like the sun. The bud grew and grew in size then exploded in a flourish of white that spread across the land. Some ponies were struck by this light and were drawn to the Castle of the Royal Pony Sisters, where a wonder awaits them all.

Name: Edward Smith

 

Race: Unicorn

 

Gender: Male

 

Appearance:

Spoiler

 

Talent: Crafting Magic Items

 

Personality: Edward is hesitant to trust others, but normally doesn't take long for him to grow on others. He is always ready to support his allies with various kinds of magical items.

 

Backstory: Edward grew up in a family full of craftsmen and blacksmiths. His time and dedication was spent in the smithy, where his father taught him everything he knows about creating arms and armor. His mother, a wood carver, only ever showed him the basics of carving and whittling. At age 10, Edward was struck with the brilliant idea to try and imbue his creations with magical abilities. He soon discovered that there is a great cost to this. A piece of his overall health is shed for every item he enchants. The number varies based on what the item does and how many times it can be used per day. After using his new found ability extensively, his ability to cast spells directly from his horn disappeared.

If this seems a little OP, let me know. I will make serious edits to it.

Name: Strike Hawke

 

Race: Batpony 

 

Gender: M

 

Appearance: http://fjordfrost.de...lters-399949347

 

Talent: Mapping out areas. General Strategy.

 

Personality: Cynic and acts high and mighty just because he's part of the Night Guard.( And where he is deeply confronted with himself about the horrible things he done to ensure the Queen's domain) He is also very very VERY afraid of Nightmare Moon.....

 

Backstory: Strike grew up on the caverns of Canterlot Mountain with the small colony of batponies rarely ever leaving the caves to explore the outside world. When Nightmare Moon appeared once again, most of the bat ponies were called upon draft. Including Strike. During his time in the guard he showed great expertise in strategies and knowing the terrain, so defeating the those loyal to Princess Celestia, was rather easy. Now he is hunted by visions of the ones he killed or sent to their deaths.

Izzy... I dunno. For this RP, just disregard that alternative sci-fi backstory entirely as it serves no purpose. Also, if she was from another time, it's unlikely the flower would have affected her because of this thing I have in my brain that will progress the story.

 

Strike's accepted.

 

Rumo, he seems like a pretty well thought out character. With the summoning items thing, I immediately thought of Radiance (the Powerpony), so maybe you could work with that and have it so he can only summon these items for, say, an hour before they lose their magical energy?

He doesn't summon the items, he enchants mundane items with magical abilities that he and others can use. Each item only has a certain amount of uses per day. Some items only have a certain amount of charges. For example, if Edward imbued a belt that could increase his strength temporarily, he could choose to either make it a 3 times per day item (more costly), or give it 10 charges. Once all the charges run out, the item disintegrates.

ok. this one is totally different now. just some edits i think to the last one.

Non sci-fi version... :

 

Name: Astral melody Breeze

Race: Bat pony

Gender: Mare

Appearance: Dark grey coat, blonde mousy hair tied up at the side with a black bow, topaz body markings: curls under eye, eye colour, cutie-mark colou, hoof colour, wing gradient. wings have a gradient from grey to topaz, and has white dots as stars on them. She wears a brown strap watch around her right front leg to tell the time, and to check that she isn't going crazy that she is actually here, which her mum gave to her. (no use. just time... time... time...)

Talent: the ability to sing sweet notes that are as beautiful as Saturn looks, and her cutiemark represents her love for the stars.

Personality: arrogant, yet kind when she wants to be. She likes to flirt around with others when she's being arrogant but most of the time she just gets annoyed by talking to others. She feels lonely a lot, when looking at the ponies in the prisons.

Backstory: Astral grew up in Hollow Shades. She rarely spent time with others though for some time, until she finaly found her voice and became more interested to share her talent with others. At night she would 'chase' the stars, taking her on secret trips to towns around Hollow Shades to hang out by herself out of the forest like place. She found refuge in these towns, watching the moon rise over the night over the watery horizon.

Once old enough, she started to train herself to be top game. She wanted to get into the night guard, so she could continue her nightly journeys around Equestrian towns. Sadly, when she signed up and got in, the new Queen had taken hold of Equestria and had forced her into doing the opposite. Sitting around watching so called 'traitors'. She didn't get to move around much, as her set area to roam was there. otherwise she would risk horribly things happening to her. When the light struck her, she felt it glow brighter that any star or moon she had seen before. She knew she could escape into it's mysterious wonder. So she secretly started to get herself ready to break out of her patrol area and finally be emancipated.

Other:

No sci-fi themes here, me ladie. *tips hat*

I see... It's going to take a lot of management on your part then because I definitely won't be able to keep track of it. However, if it becomes too great a convenience that he can enchant items, his horn might get chop-chop'd.

I understand. Most items take days to create in the first place. I'm trying to figure out a way to measure how much energy is used and how much he has in the first place. I'm thinking a system where he gets a certain amount of "life points" per week to use without hurting himself too badly. What do you think?

Alright, I think I have it together. Here is the document outlining everything. It includes the spells that can be imbued, and the guidelines for enchanting. I enabled comments, so if something seems OP or out of balance, let me know.

 

I'm thinking 10 points per week for enchanting.

1) Yes, you can still join! We've barely started, I'm the only one who's posted as of now.

 

2) I don't know, I usually don't use technology in RP. I don't think so, though, because of Luna's rule. If you want technology, the lovely Izzy is starting up a sci-fi RP that could be right up your street.

Talent: Painting, Art, Creativity
Personality: Cream is friendly, helpful, kind, caring, artistic, creative and trustworthy.
Backstory: Well, Cream Emerald grew up in Canterlot and earned her cutie mark after entering an art competition in school. She won first prize and her picture was praised by the Princess. She sold her paintings to earn money for herself and her family. When she was 15, she put under the slavery of Nightmare Moon. She was separated from her family and forced to work for the Queen. She couldn't have been more depressed. She secretly found time to paint some more but the paintings weren't covered in her colourful oil pastels or paints. They were dull and depressing to look at. They were still art of course and she hid them but they didn't have her usual flair of imagination. When she saw the light, she saw hope and couldn't help being attracted to it. She felt hope grow inside her and she needed to see it.
Other: Cream is 16 now.

Ok, I'll give you a list.

 

1. It's way too short.

2. 'Limbo'? Nah, mate. Unless she's a druggie, in which case ya mate.

3. 'Unsure of her origins'? Nope.

4. She's an alicorn? No thank-you. I don't want that.

5. I foresee a Mary-Sue. I don't know if she is one because you've given me crumbs to go from, but my Squinty-sense tingles ferociously.
