The Milkman? He sounds like a Batman villain. That was an amazing backstory with an interesting kind of twist. I am really pretty excited to see how this turns out. Milk power equals best power.

Edit: I kind of like the idea of the "super power surge" that you mentioned about in your application, though I am pretty sure that not every pony has a super power, just the odd ones out. It's okay though, the way you implemented it still makes sense with how we're making the story out so far, and kind of brings up an interesting point; has the sudden increase in super-powered ponies been noticed by many?

I'll try to cover it up by saying that Ponyville hasn't acknowledged it much, since they are a more carefree town. However, in Canterlot and other major cities, I'll bet there are plenty of reports. (though kept to small degrees possibly.)

Oh, no, not everyone has a power, I just incorporated it because it explained how the hell so many ponies have powers.

 

Also the fact you think the backstory is amazing makes me very happy.

Lactokinesis; aw yiss, they shall fear him within 50 metres of any cow.

But dayum, Milk vs Soul (the battles are going to be real)

Still the backstory's cool and means you get your power early

If you can control milk, then you might be able to extract milk in ponies, causing a lack of vitamin d. It's kinda like sucking the strength out of ponies since that vitamin is what strengthens muscles and bones. Also not everyone has milk inside them, just the ones that drink it a lot. (Excluding girls, they always have milk unless they rarely drink which causes several health issues...)

...Am I giving you too many evil ideas?

Fuck It.

 

Name: Zeus Belle
 

Gender: Colt
 

Race: Pegasus Pony
 

Age: Toddler (1 or 2)
 

Description: 

QfjElnA.png

 

Cutie Mark: Baby. No talent.
 

Short bio: Zeus was a normal foal, born to a mother in Manehattan. Nopony knows who is mother was, but after being stolen and being subject to many painful experiments, and being shipped all the way to a lab in Ponyville. Luckily, he was smart enough to break out, since all these experiments sped up some of his developments as a pony. He has some common sense in some areas, but nothing more than a little kid would have. After he did escape, he was basically a orphan. Parentless, guards tried to find and catch him, but he was too quick and small. He can actually speak well, but he doesn't do it unless you directly confront him and aren't chasing him.

 

Power that you are going to discover: He doesn't know it's odd that a foal his age can talk, think quick, and act like a 6 year old in a 2 year old body. His true powers, however, are that he can wield electricity. So far, when in panic, angry, or emotional, he'll accidentally shock something, or shoot bolts of electricity. This could possibly be because during the experiments, he was shocked with high voltages in order to stimulate the chemicals and hormones injected in him. So, he can shoot lightning bolts, shock people with his hoof, conduct electricity... Electric stuff that he can't control yet.
 

Personality: Zeus is a little, innocent foal. A observant one, who is clever and smart, but also quite cute. In this roleplay, since he can be communicated with, where he couldn't have been in home, Zeus is obviously brave. He's a little cocky, thinking he can win most fights with little man syndrome, and he'll usually be way over his head. In the end, Zeus will run away crying from those fights he thought he could win. He sometimes arrogant, since he's so different and unique. The truth is, that he isn't as much as he thinks he is, and that he needs to be knocked down a few notches every so often. He is friendly to others most of the time, and Zeus will befriend a lot of ponies. He treats almost anything like a game, like a little foal would. He can get lonely sometimes, and often needs a companion to stick with, because he truly can't care for himself that well. In general, Zeus is pretty much the common 6 year old in a 2 year old body

It's really great to see lots of new roleplayers, not to mention the experienced ones. Thanks for joining, and I think that your character is great! Looks like we've got "Pika-Zeuss" to join the fray. (Or maybe just Zeuss since that name is already fitting)

My character would probably be a little cautious of your character since he has an instinctual fear of electricity. Due mostly to typing and whatnot. He could be someone to look up to, if your character likes fanboying over his heroes and stuff like Scootaloo, of course. We'll see how things play out when both you and Blazer are accepted!

Because my OC is a child? Not all OC's are adults, Zeus' normal character is actually a baby. I just have had this super-power version of him from another site when they did super hero RP's. And, yes, intelligence is one of his powers... but only for a baby. I mean, he acts like a 5 year old. You'll see in my intro post.

He can... kinda take care of himself. Somepony will most likely adopt him. I mean, he's basically a wreck without anyone watching him, he lives on a little shelter on a roof (That he didn't even make. I'd tell you, but that'd be a spoiler to his story)

 

Other than that, thanks for the acceptence

Pretty sure this is like, the one hundredth time I've joined this. But with my hiatus out of the way as well as loads of other stuff i find myself with much more time. Siren is a neutral character, Melody is good though Siren can take over and sway Melody either side easily. The brackets are about Melody's creature by the way.

Oc name: Sweet Melody (Siren Song)

Gender: Female

Race of pony: Unicorn (Visual Alicorn, only retains magical capabilities)

Age: 23

Description: Melody has a lime green coat and sharp green eyes. Her mane falls in ringlets and to make it moderately neat she puts a blue Alice band in it. The hair is blonde. Meanwhile her tail falls similarly but in one big curl. In order to handle this she puts a blue scrunchie-like band at the bottom. (In this form her coat is black with tiny white dots all over. Her eyes are purple and her mane is long and floating. The colour is of an extremely dark purple, a few shades away from black.)

Cutie Mark and meaning/talent: Melody has a gem in the shape of a microphone as her cutiemark. It represents fantastic craftsmanship in cutting gems as well as singing in perfect harmony.

Short bio: Melody was raised in the urban city of Manehattan. Her family was scattered about across the whole of Equestria. No one knew who was coming to the next reunion. She had a pretty busy lifestyle and found it hard to balance her social life with school and maintaining her parents strict rules. As soon as she was old enough she borrowed enough bits from her parents to buy a one way ticket to Ponyville. There she took her life savings, spent it on a house and now lives there happily.

Power that you are going to discover: Hypnotisation through song. When she does this she turns into a creature and, to the person she's hypnotising, becomes what the pony desires.

Personality: Melody is, as her name implies, sweet. She likes to help those in her community and has a lot of cheerfulness. Though she dislikes new people who think they own the place. As well as that she is short tempered with varying levels of patience. (Siren has no definable personality. Some traits of Melody leak through though not much. Siren has a much bigger impact on Melody than Melody does on her.)

I think that the extra electricity bit might make him a bit more interesting as a character. Granted, it might not be needed. Though I'm pretty sure that it could be incorporated with the character's background, such as when being experimented on, the increase in growth was a side effect of trying to get the foal electric powers. In fact, maybe that's why they had to kidnap a baby, since the process would speed up an adult's growth much too far, since babies go through so many stages of development. It's up to Delta with this, but she can make it make sense I'm sure.

Also, your character looks nice Golden. The double personality ponies are a bit confusing sometimes, since it's hard to really tell what 'side' they're on. (Not really 'side', it's just that it feels like it's hard to work with a character that has two different personalities, since, realistically, other characters will get confused and not really know what to do with yours. I dunno, maybe that's the point...)

Actually that is the point. I'd like to see how the characters will react with Melody and Siren, as well as seeing if they will accept and help her. Don't worry, with a bit of practice Siren will become more like Melody. That is, if she isn't swayed to evil first.

Oh, the backstory isn't much.  Astro and Bloom were walking through Everfree forest when a Timberwolf attacked them.  Astro was nearly knocked unconscious when Gravitous took control and made Astro use a singularity the size of an atom.  The result was an extremely loud sound that could be heard for miles, and the timberwolf fled.  Astro managed to bring Gravitous under control, and they're heading to Zecora's hut right now.  It really didn't mean much, but I'm sure a lot of ponies were a bit frightened by it.

 

Though, to be honest, I'm more excited to see how the characters that  group up in Everfree forest will react to each other!  Maybe the timberwolf could bring back its whole pack too if things were to get interesting...

Oooh boy, recaps are a bit tough. It's ok, I'll try to do it. The spoiler below is the history from *approximately* ten pages ago. You can read up on it to help see where things have come up to currently.

Spoiler

If you want to see what's going on currently, I recommend you take a look at pages 63 or 65+. This is just a bit of a quick summary of everything that happened since then.


At Twilight's library, everyone left to do their own individual things. Twilight hasn't responded to everyone leaving yet. Shimmerspeed hasn't gotten much attention since before page 60. Keldeo is tailing Book Smarts, lots of ponies are heading to the Everfree forest to investigate a loud noise that came from there, and I really dunno what Dominic's characters are doing. In Everfree forest, Zecora's hut hasn't made much progress, but interesting things are bound to happen as soon as someone takes over Zecora for Astro, and when Bloom can post.

The 'Changeling Chitin Knights' are actually the two inconspicuous ponies that walked by Twilight's house. I'm not too sure myself, but I've got the feeling that Aurora is planning something.

All of the characters that were recently added haven't done much so far, but they're there so I guess that's something.

Also, as for time, it should be about midnight right now.

I changed him to 2 now.

 

And intellect can't be his only power, because he wouldn't be able to keep up at all with other heroes or enemies. As you'll see, he can talk pretty well, but still gets his 'r's' wrong and such like a little kid was, and he isn't even that smart. If I just made him insanely smart, it would take away from his personality, and for whatever reason, a insanely smart toddler just creeps me out. I said it in his app, but he only has the mind of maybe a 6 year old.

Oc name:  Solar Star
 

Gender: Stallion 
 

Race of pony: Unicorn
 

Age:  I'd like to say around 23
 

Description: Solar Star has a white coat. He sometimes, when walking around, will wear his bowler hat. His mane is yellow and blue, a sort of half and half. Or, for a better picture, take a look at this: http://i.imgur.com/uitteHT.png He also wears a bowler hat to signify his personality. *edit* He also has glasses. (forgot to add that on)
 

Cutie Mark and meaning/talent:  Solar Star has a star as a cutie mark, which signifies his love for science, especially Astronomy. He received his cutie mark by  spotting new constellations with ease that nopony else could when he was in grade school.  
 

Short bio:  Born and raised in Manehattan, Solar Star was brought into a family of generosity with a significance of wealth. As a young filly, Solar would always look forward to his science classes. In fact, although he enjoys most subjects relating to science, Solar Star regards astronomy as his favorite. One night, when his astronomy class was looking for constellations, he found a new one in which nopony has recorded before. He then realized a star appeared on his flank, and Solar was happy. 

 

During his childhood, Solar Star learned how to become a gentlepony. His generosity always made ponies like him, and enjoyed his company. Along with this, Solar Star learned so much about science, he even tried to take after other famous scientists. He invented many items, including a steam powered car. He was proud of his work, and tried to continue to become a good inventor and scientist. After graduating University of Manehattan (If that is a thing), Solar decided he wanted to find a more spacious, quieter place than the loud city of Manehattan. Taking all of his inventions and belongings, he moved to Ponyville. After moving into his new home, only fate knows what will happen next....
 

Power that you are going to discover: Solar Star is going to have the ability of advanced speaking techniques. He can persuade others to help him, or prevent fights and troubles by his way of speech. (Its a more passive ability, since Solar Star hates fighting)
 

Personality: Solar Star is a gentlepony, who always looks for opportunities to help others, while always trying to advance in science. Unfortunately, he can get to a point will he will never give up in trying to help somepony and will often annoy the hell out of those who don't want his help.

 

Well, there you go. I'm sure this will be the first forum RP I will do in which I will participate in. I am not really used to it, but I can improve. Anyway, hope I get in!

You know... I should of made Zeus' powers the ability to change into animals.

 

If I get bored of him, I pull in another character like him, but a filly instead, and make that her power. You know, I could even bring her in now and make them a crime fight toddler duo, and maybe I can throw in a twist that they're brother and sister. After all, they are, but just not in Zeus' main OC story. I'll have to RP with Zeus a bit and see how I feel with him, and if I like him enough to bring in another character like him

Although I am not in the RP yet, based on my observations, I advise you find a "caretaker" I would be glad to do that as Solar Star if I get in the RP, which I should.

 

Be advised, I'll try to improve my child care taking, as of all the people, you know how I am with foals....*cough *cough Fallout RP on main server *cough *cough

Oc name: Seth Briar
Gender: Male
Race of pony: Unicorn
Age: 28
Description: Tall and lanky, with a dull brownish mane and tail, along with his barely shaved beard and his peachy-brown fur makes Seth look extremely generic. He wears a jacket over a shirt, and has a few tattoos.
Cutie Mark and meaning/talent: Speech bubble, symbolises his charisma and mercantile skill
Short bio: Born to a poor family in the slums of Manehatten, Seth has always had to scrounge by on barely anything. He quickly got into shady dealings to buy himself and his family food, and those shady dealings quickly became his full time job. He started selling drugs, hallucinogens, and whatever else he could get his hooves on. It wasn't especially profitable, but it was all he could get.

 

His house was eventually ransacked by the police, and he had to run off to somewhere else. He headed towards Ponyville, knowing property there was cheap. He got a loft in someone else's house, when one day he was about to pay his rent, his landlord revealed to him he had gained the ability to take over minds, which he demonstrated by forcing Seth to give him all his drug money. Seth did, but in the process momentarily slipped out, punching his landlord. The punch drained his power and granted a much more minor version of it to Seth.

 

This became the moment he realized that he had the ability to take powers, which he hadn't even known existed beforehand, and transfer them. He quickly started buying powers from those who had them, and selling powers to those who hadn't, for exorbitant prices. He's currently searching for 4 specific powers that buyers want: Lightning, Shadow Manipulation, Dimensional Transit, and Mind Reading, and won't stop at anything to get them.

Power: Power transferral (Can take and give powers through touch. Any powers he has taken are extremely limited in size and power compared to their original user(s) but regain their power when given to someone)
Personality: Cold and distant, but not a bad person. He wants to be the ultimate dealer, and nothing will keep him from it. He's friendly if you're buying or selling, though.

 

The whole power transferral thing might seem op, but if he was to, say, take Gravetious' power, he'd barely be able to create a black hole the size of an atom to an atom, or if he took Shimmerspeed's mind control he'd probably just be able to tell their current emotions, so he doesn't even use the powers he has for himself most of the time.

Hmm, Interesting Blazer, I also wonder if the ability includes cutie marks?

 

What if the power has requirements? Like the pony needed training with it before they could actually use it?

 

Does the original owner loose the power permanently?

A couple of things about Blazer's character's, Seth's, ability

one; does he steal the power from it's current user making them unable to ever use it again.

two; is the power unlimited: can he take as many powers as he wants when he wants

three; can the original owner take it back by *force touching* Seth back

and finally four; you said you have 'lightning' and 'mind reading', two ponies already have that power in the rp so did he 'punch' them or what- I don't think there are copies of the magical abilities in this rp.

and in addition to three, five; what happens when someone touches Seth

 

why not: six; Astorious technically has 3 powers, does he gain all of them when Seth touches them?

He doesn't have them - those are the one's he's going after currently.

 

Also, all the powers are owned by characters in the rp, that was my idea for him meeting up with people.

 

Anyway, the first person who's power he stole was basically about to destroy everything Seth had worked for, and the panic made him actually able to transfer it through an attack. Normally he has to grab a hoof for a dozen or so seconds.

 

They can't use the power unless they buy it back, but he usually just buys powers, because otherwise he's destroying business. He'll probably try and buy the powers off people.

two; is the power unlimited: can he take as many powers as he wants when he wants Usually only has a few (( assumed))

three; can the original owner take it back by *force touching* Seth back No they can't apparently

and finally four; you said you have 'lightning' and 'mind reading', two ponies already have that power in the rp so did he 'punch' them or what- I don't think there are copies of the magical abilities in this rp. I was just being dumb

and in addition to three, five; what happens when someone touches Seth Nothing

why not: six; Astorious technically has 3 powers, does he gain all of them when Seth touches them?  Only gets the power of whoever is 'controlling' the body at the time

Oh and extra point: seven; does touching Living's soul fabrications allow him to take the power

 

((Just making sure I get the ability's effects and fine print down because otherwise shit will happen))

I don't understand exactly what 2 means.

 

If he wants to transfer a power, they would gain a power.

 

And he would gain all of them, but if Gravetious is a separate individual with the black hole powers then he'd have to touch Gravetious to get it

7) Living's power is to form like objects an shit using his soul as material, if you touch them do you steal the power basically.

and that's about it on questions.

*note: Astrorious only has the ability to keep Gravitous at bay... that's about it... Gravitous does not technically have a "Power" its more of a curse... his is bound to his power indefinitely... I think if blazer's OC were to try to steal it, he would find that it would be impossible for he would literally have to steal a physical object, not a power.

Yes actually... In fact Keldeo's whole backstory is based around how he's trying to get back. I used the alternate world portal theory thingy from Equestria Girls to kinda explain all that. Though I see why you're confused. xD

Actually, every little detail I've made about Keldeo so far has been almost (again, almost of course, to emphasize) 100% canon to the real Keldeo in the Pokemon universe, even to the part where he disappeared and wasn't heard from again. Even his fear of heights is a bit canon.

i kinda want to join... this gives me the sort of nostalgia for some reason of my first rp, uni days. (huzzah! i was op at first in that too!)

 

-edit-

Oc name: Feather Light
Gender: Female
Race of pony: Pegasus
Age: 9
Description:

 9727
Cutie Mark and meaning/talent: N/A (she's a foal) But her CM would be a feather on top of an anvil, representing her quick flight skills and her natural skill of being feather-light (she can float anywhere without being noticed).
Short bio: Born to Cloudsdale, this pegasus foal had quickly learnt a talent of flight. She had practiced her natural ability at being feather light into making entertainment for herself, pranking others. She has a mother, who was quite young when she had her. This lead to Feather being premature at birth, and acquiring her lightness due to her bones not being heavy enough and insufficient nutrition to help them thicken out. This wasn't a major health problem, it only had the defect of making a harder job at flying and not being blown away by strong wind. Her mother and herself moved to Ponyville to avoid these problems, and settled in quite well by themselves.
Power that you are going to discover:

 

She can 'muffle' things... Living has got a good idea.
Although, she can't exactly shut ponies up but can make them hard to hear/understand.

'Muffle' in the sense of toning things down- e.g. Muffling sound waves, object's weights (muffling their heavy weight), other ponies' powers, someone's speed e.t.c. basically the power to weaken things.

Personality: She is quite loud, and attention seeker and likes to sneak up on others without being heard. She likes to perform tricks on others also by acting like a victim of accidents and as adorable as she can get to get what she wants. Although, she does have a quiet side, where she is happy enough to just watch on and care for somepony else.

Nice application Eris!  It'll be great to have you in the RP.

 

Either ways, I vote for daytime.  I can't exactly do anything until then, since Keldeo is asleep... Though I do have an idea for you, Dominic.  Since he's not going to have very good dreams, Luna could enter his dream and unknowingly stumble across evidence of Book Smarts and Tantibus.  Well, that is unless Keldeo wants to cover it up or confront Luna about it.  It's all up to you, if you want to play as Luna.

In regards to the above app, ''She can pick up heavy objects of any weight with ease and can muffle sound waves/make others silent (both making them shut up if she wants, and making their movements silent. perfect for infiltration of places without notice.)' That is two separate powers really...well unless your power was 'Muffle' in the sense of toning things down- e.g. Muffling sound waves, object's weights (muffling their heavy weight), other ponies' powers, someone's speed e.t.c. basically the power to weaken things. Right?

 

Yes for Feather

Muffling would not allow for completely silencing another pony's tongue. But Muffling as a power is a good idea.

 

Will someone please tell me if Seth takes the power from the original owner already?

actually yeah. i'll just make it muffling, what Living said.

btw i just found out that my school blocked brohoof (it pretends it's a 'bad' site)

So i might not reply as much as i should (which really sucks- and which limited me from enrolling in an rp in the first place anyways)

I'm going to decline Seth because the character's ability is poorly defined. Also, I worry that Blazer will not take into account how and why the stolen ability works. For instance, how do you steal a power that comes from the pony having a symbol carved on them? Does Seth magically get the symbol as well? Or just get the power without the focusing ability of the symbol to provide the actual casting.

 

Or one that gained a power from a biological weapon that didn't kill them due to pure luck and in fact still have this power because said virus still exists in their blood. Do you get the virus and it does not harm you because convenience? Or do you get the power and the Virus just stops doing what it does?

 

Or the Character has the ability because they mutilated their own magical network so as to not die when performing a forbidden spell. Does Seth, or the one he gives the power to automatically not have to worry about that?

 

The Character gets their power from a god they worship, does Seth automatically take away the god's power regardless of if they have stopped worshiping them?

 

Does Seth automatically gain the knowledge of the forbidden spell when said spell had to be learned? Does the character suddenly forget everything they learned to master that ability?

 

One of the things that I love about the RP is that we the players can come up with the backstory of how our characters got these powers, a backstory that the player can reveal. 

 

While it might be true for some of us that we got our powers 'because', it is not true for all of us.

 

And Blazer, before you say that this is a 'flimsy justification' to not get my character's powers taken, I already thought of these things before you even joined. I'm just curious to how Seth's power works. At the very least, let the player who came up with the power that is stolen decide what Seth's limitations are with it, as well as if it even works for the ones he gives it to.

 

After all, he might just be giving them a virus that will kill them.

Dominic, did you see the idea I had for you on my last post? What do you think? If it's not what you have planned for your characters, it doesn't have to happen.

1) Well at least according to the RP's context the characters are mainly 'discover(ing), no matter what race of pony, that you have an extraordinary power that nopony else has' and so the 'possibilities' you listed are quite unlikely to happen, however I understand there are few exceptions were the ponies' power is acquired through other means.

 

2) Therefore Seth can most likely only take powers than have come about via the so far unexplained 'discoveries' of powers- meaning he can't take powers than the character has by itself e.g. fire proof body. Overall your 'possibilities' are dealt with by 1 and 2.

 

3) It is quite probable that Seth takes these things into account when taking powers (aside from the 'discovery' incident) therefore it is doubtful that Seth will take in a power than would cause him harm through the power or the 'weakened' version of the power.
