Plot: Ten years ago, the night skies of Equestria were lit with several bright blue lights. Steel structures came from above, crushing buildings around the world. An hour after they had landed, they each emitted an EMP, wiping out our electronics.


It wasn’t until that when all hell broke loose, as waves of flying machines came from the skies. They fired out beams of pure heat, incinerating anything unlucky enough to be in their crosshairs. Our farms were burned to the ground, bringing about famine. Any towns with wooden houses were turned to mostly ash. With few weapons powerful enough to fight back, it took but a few weeks before our hopes were all but crushed.


After the flying machines had their runs, their pilots finally decided to emerge. They were small, a little higher than a foal. Their skin was yellowed, and their eyes were small, black slits. They were bipedal, and had four arms, with claws on each one. They carried no firearms, but their numbers seemed to be enough to take out most of the trained military that was sent after them.


They were also assisted by large machines, known as Leviathans by the few survivors unfortunate to see them. Tall, Bipedal machines, composed of two arms and legs, a cylindrical body, and a misshapen head, which varies between Leviathans. So far, the only ones seen just try to crush or smack their targets, but some reports claim that some have different armaments or abilities.


It’s been a decade since they first struck, and as luck would have it, we’re still fighting back. Small pockets of resistance dot the continent, still trying to strike back against the invaders. You’re within one of these groups, and whether you are a strong fighter, or just a lucky salvager, you’re doing whatever you can (hopefully) to contribute to the survival of Equestria and the elimination of the invaders.


You have found your way into a resistance group, led by a mare known only as Shade, or at least, that’s what she tells others to call her. You’ve lived fairly comfortably under her command, despite the almost constant threat of attack. However, supplies have started to dwindle, and with no other choice, she is planning to send a group into Invader-controlled areas in order to salvage supplies.


You are one of the ponies in this group.

2. To join, fill out an application sheet (Found above) and post it here.

 

3. You can play as any canon character, if you choose not to have an OC (Except the Princesses) But in order to do this, you'll have to have a pretty impressive application sheet/bio.

 

4. Try not to post one-sentence or one-line posts. These make a lot of us RPers cringe, especially considering that some of us prefer to put lots of work into our posts.

 

5. Minor gore is ok, but only in moderation.  Same for swearing.

 

6. Only one OC at the moment, but in the future, or if the RP gets slow, you may be allowed to play as another.

Short Bio: Shade did not live a very comfortable life, before or after the invasion. She was born to two parents that she never met, and she spent a long time in an orphanage before growing too old to live in one. She lived on the streets, begging or stealing from strangers just to survive. When the invasion hit, she was in the slums of Ponyville, far away from where most of the conflict began.

 

After riding out most of the attacks, she hid in alleyways from the Invaders, often close to starvation. A few weeks later, she came across a group of survivors who took her in an nursed her to health. After traveling with them for a few weeks, she woke up one morning to find the camp under attack, and although she gave her best efforts, they were overrun, and she was the only survivor.

 

Living off of her friends' possessions, she eventually began her own group, and she one day plans to take back what the invaders took from her, even if it means giving her own life.
