OOC Thread: https://www.brohoof....rds-ooc-thread/

 

Plot:


An assassin's POV:

Spoiler

 

A templar's POV:

Spoiler

 
 
 
 
 
Setting:
 
This roleplay is in Manehattan about 500 years after Nightmare Moon's banishment. The city doesn't have tall skyscrapers or the statue of liberty yet. Think of it like old Trotterdam from colonizations.
The technology is similar to the technology used in ACIV. The most advanced weapons in this roleplay are cannons, guns and rifles. No machineguns. No nukes. No orbital drop spells. In the city, thieves and gangs are common. You should think before provoking any of those. Either evade or bring allies with you. The citizens are poor, and some are starving. The government has become weak after war. Some Templars have come into rule easily because of this.
 
You are somepony invited to join the Assassins. The Templars are getting close to make Manehattan corrupt. You must help the Assassins stop the Templars at any costs. You will get training, and get to know the different abilities you gain as an Assassin. Try to work as a team. If your cover is blown or when in a difficult situation, others can help you out.
 
Or maybe you're somepony who got caught into this confusing war and joined the Templars.
 
 
 
 
 
Rules:
 
1. Normal RP Rules plus the following;
2. Respect other players.
3. I'll need to tell you what NPCs are willing to trade/tell you.
4. Use OOC when out of character, but don't use it too often in RP thread.
5. No grimdark or gore. Romance is allowed, but keep it PG13.
6. Swearing should be kept at a low frequency, but can be accepted. You're not a pirate, but not neccessarily an innocent civilian either.
7. Have fun!
 
 
 
 
 
Character sheet requirements:
 
OC Name:
 
Race: (Unicorn, Earth Pony, Pegasus. Ask or give reason for Griffon, Changeling or Zebra. They'll need a reason to be in Manehattan.)
 
Gender:
 
Age: (At least 16, geez)
 
Description: (How your character looks. Be creative, but don't make me puke rainbows)
 
Personality: (Is he/she shy, calm, crazy?)
 
Cutie Mark and Talent: (Either pic and info about talent, or describe cutie mark and talent.)
 
Class:

Stealth - Uses dark and unsuspiscious suits, can hide easily in shadows and crowds. (Increased chance of not being detected in nighttime, covers and crowds.)

Heavy - Trained with heavy armor and weapons. (Increased damage resistance and combat efficiency.)

Ranged - Uses light armor and is talented with ranged weapons. (Betther with bows, crossbows, throwing weapons and guns.)

Watcher - Uses light armor, can move quickly around and can study things from long distances. (Moves more agile, and has better eagle vision.)


Heavy is the only class that can wear heavy armor and use heavy weapons.

All classes can use ranged weapons, but Ranger is better with them.

All classes can learn Eagle Vision if wanted (Being able to locate specific targets or ponies from different factions). Training is still needed, though. Watcher is best with it.)

 

Squad:

 

Write here if you want to belong to a specific squad/team with other characters. Write "Independent" here if you don't want to be in one.

 

 

Bio:

 

(At least two paragraphs. You should include how he/she lived their life in Manehattan/why they moved there. Include their grudges against Assassins/Templars if you want.)

 

 

 

That is all for the character sheet.

 

 

 

 

 

My OC:

 

OC Name: Cerulean Mint

Race: Unicorn
Gender: Male
Age: 21 Years
Description: A light blue coated unicorn with a darker blue mane with a white streak going through it.
Personality: He is a confident leader, relying on different kinds of assassins to plan out ambushes. He was the one who suggested the assassin classes in order for the assassins to easily plan out their strategies in different situations. Even the most feared Templar wouldn't scare Cerulean. He is a pony who likes to test the limits of his teammates. He ecourages others to try this as well.
Cutie Mark and Talent: His cutie mark is three... sweets?
Symbolising his talent in...? Anyways, he doesn't talk much about it to his fellow assassin brothers, and not many ponies have decided to ask him about it. It remains as a mystery for now.
Class: Watcher
Squad: Alpha Squad
Bio: Cerulean Mint was the name given to him at birth. He was a quick learned and an ambitious unicorn colt. He had grown tired of the simple life in his hometown and decided to travel to Manehattan, the city of opportunities. He had decided to try to get a job there.
 
However, Cerulean noticed that the city had become poor after the recent war, and the government was falling to ruins. Templars controlled most of the city.
 
While Cerulean made friends at Manehattan, they were later executed for being accused of stealing money. Cerulean found this suspiscious, seeing as the Templars had no evidence supporting their accusations.
 
The anger inside Cerulean grew for each day that passed until he could no longer hold it anymore. He joined some other ponies at destroying some of the Templars' weapons. While doing that, Cerulean got to know about an organisation that was against the Templars. They were called the Assassins.
 
Cerulean got caught saboutaging by the Manehattan guard. They were going to send him to the gallows, but an assassin named Tempest Stormwing freed him from the prison he was in and got him to safety. He teached him the arts of assassination and combat. Since then, Tempest has been Cerulean's mentor. Cerulean is now going to train with the new recruits in the Manehattan Assassin Order.

 

 

 

 

 

Statistics:

 

Not neccessary for your character to know, but these are the statistics for the factions.

 
 
The Assassins
No reputation yet among the citizens.
0% of Manehattan liberated.

The Citizens

- Tempest Stormwing, 512 years after Nightmare Moon's banishment.

 

 

 

 

 

Squads:

 

On important missions, everyone is involved. These situations can vary from templar hunts to castle sieges.

A mission is given to one squad. They will be the only ones who need to complete it. The leader/squad can decide when to ask for backup from other squads.

Book Chute, Male Unicorn ~ Solar Star
 
Crystal Squad:

You know what? I just made some new OC, I'll give him a try on this new RP

 

OC Name: Book Chute

Race: Unicorn

Gender: Male

Age: 29

Description: Book Chute has a slightly lighter grey body, with light-ish blue hair, and blue eyes (I'll try to make a picture sometime soon, for better reference)

Personality: Although Book can be calm and nice at times, he will go a bit crazy when looking at books seditious to his own thoughts or his friends

Cutie Mark and Talent: Book Chute's cutie mark is a blank book, showing that he has an obsession with erasing seditious material, and making blank books out of them. He later changes his thoughts, thinking sedition is actually from the current government, rather than rebels (If anyone can find out who I based this character off of, I'll give you a medal) He also has some skill with being stealthy, to be touched up in the bio

Class: Stealth

 

Squad: I actually don't mind which squad he should be in. I was thinking independent, but for the sake of people included so far, you can choose for me.

 

Bio: Book Chute has been living in Manehattan all his life, as it seemed. He was obsessed with reading great books from great authors inside the city, but disliked authors who wrote their books outside the city for some reason. As he got older, he'd even been known with magically wiping the words off the pages of books and distributing blank books to citizens of Manehattan.

 

Before the government got so corrupted, his parents had been working in the government themselves, often telling the young Book Chute what was happening in the city before it reached the common ear. He quickly became very patriotic, calling residents "citizen" and always gleaming when seeing a government official around who were not his parents. After going to school due to his parents position in the government, and learning how to read and write, Book Chute became even more obsessed with books than anypony else. He was always at the library, even during grand events, or executions, reading his way along, and every once in a while, wiping one of the books of seditious material as he called it, and bring it home to make a journal or something for his liking.

 

Book quickly found out he was good at sneaking around. Stealing books from the library was easy for him, and he started going around at night, taking nice strolls, while still being wary of what was happening around him. After years of reading and pointing out sedition, he found it easy to find something out of the picture.

 

When the Templars took control of the city, he quickly noticed the change in laws and rules around the city. More and more executions were taking place, and Book was not liking it. While reading quietly in a loud bar, somepony went up to him, and offered him to join a legendary ancient group known as the Assassins. Concerned with the current government, and looking for a good job anyway, he took the job. Although he wasn't very fond of killing, he saw himself as a good spy, or just plain sneaker for the group. He quickly honed his skills to a point where he got very good at sneaking.

 

Not long after joining, he quickly started to change his thoughts. His parents had been missing for months, and he was disliking the current government more and more each day. Instead of making blank books out of non-government material, he changed his definition of sedition. He now knew it was the government who were the rebels, and now he had to take the seditious material away from them, and them only. He learned and learned more about the real history of both groups, and started his new career, now using his books as pamphlets, and teaching ponies how to read, as he always wanted to when he was not looking for seditious material.

 

If anything seems wrong, or out of canon, whatever, feel free to tell me, and I'll make the required changes. Also, question, is this supposed to be like ACV? Like, in France? If so, why not just make the city Prance or something?

I didn't necessarily think of making this like ACV at first, but make it have some similarities.

 

 

 

I'll start the actual rp when another person writes an app.

 

 

Also, Solar. You're Accepted.

If you look deeply into the story the Templars are actually right.... AC Rogue shows a lot of that.

Question, I don't really know much about Assassins Creed, all I really saw out of it was climbing and climbing and climbing. The info of the roleplay gave me a lot of info, but in my situation of obliviousness, is it still possible for me join and fit in well (despite possible misunderstandings)?

Reading your comment, i would answer yes. Knowing the story of it isn't that important. If you understand the setting and story of this roleplay, you could join.

OC Name: She's known as Rapid Arrow, or just Rapid, but her real name is Ginger Steam.
 
Race: Unicorn
 
Gender: Mare
 
Age: 23
 
Description: A mare with a dark beige-ish colored coat who had badly cut, messy ginger hair. She's tends to keep a low profile and hides her identity when out on missions, so she wears a cloak with a hood and a mask covering half of her face. Picture below.
Spoiler
 
Personality: Arrow is generally just a rude pony, if you get to talk to her. She's not very girlish at all and is often mistaken for a stallion due to her gruff voice and attitude. She never talks too much and pushes everyone away, refusing to socialize with others. If she does, all they get is an emotionless look, a frown, and if she's forced to, she may nod a few times. Inside, she is quite sensitive and jumpy, but she covers it up with her impolite demeanor to make sure she doesn't get emotional.
 
Cutie Mark and Talent: She has an arrow, a flame trailing behind the head of it. (Picture in description.) She's skilled with bows and arrows, extremely accurate with them. Despite her skill, though, she does have moments where she's not as accurate as she always is.
 
Class: Ranged (Her main weapon is a bow)
 

Squad: Independent

 

 

Bio: Rapid Arrow was born into a loving family, an only child with her mother and her father. They were a peaceful family, until they moved to Manehattan. After that, rarely saw her father, yet she was told he's always out working. Only at a later time did she figure out he was working with the Templars, when she was 17 to be precise. She was already working with her bows and arrows before that after being told by her mother to learn to defend herself. After learning about what the Templars did, Arrow soon started to despise them. She focused on training, fueled by her rage. She only had a few friends, but after she cut her hair and focused on training, they left her. Her mother was getting angry at her for acting so unmare-like, but that didn't stop her.

 

After getting a good look around town and avoiding everyone as much as possible, she learned about he Assassins. She dreamed of joining this group, even if it meant fighting her father. She hoped it wouldn't come to that, though. After joining them, she basically trained the same way and learned to fight a few different ways, even if it wouldn't do her much good. She learned to use a gun and a crossbow, but that was about it. 

 

Now, she does her missions alone, making sure her identity was never revealed. When she happened to meet ponies, they ended up thinking she was a stallion and she just went with the flow and acted like she was one. Gender didn't matter to her, anyway. Most of the time, she's successful working alone, but she's been thinking of joining a squad.

 

If there were any problems about this, tell me and I'll fix them immediately. I'm kind of, but not really in the dark here and whatnot, of course, so feel free to tell me whatever. uwu

Interesting character, accepted. I'll update thread and start actual roleplay. Then let's see where this will go.

 

 

 

 

 

I'd be glad more people would make Templar apps. Right now James is only one.
