What if Summer could last, forever?

 

img-3003230-1-page-divider-symbol.jpg

 

 

What if Summer was your entire life? Everyday it was warm, everyday it was bright, and everyday you could live without a single worry?

 

     Welcome to Isle City, a single island city south of Manehattan, in a group of other barrier islands close to the Equestrian main land. City dwellers from not only Manehattan, but Fillydelphia, love to come up to these islands when the season is right. The great ocean, and the beaches it provides, often being a excellent vacationing spot getaway.  Each island had their specialties, like boardwalks, or casinos, but Isle City was different. It was secluded, it was a place some ponies could only dream of going to. Isle City wasn't like any other, it was the richest of them all. It was also the most eastern place in Equestria. But what made it really special, was it's everlasting summer.

 

     Sure, all the other islands were great when the season was right, but in Isle, the season was always right! High powered unicorns created a generator that created a blanket of warmth would always cover the entire city, bringing eternal summer to the land. However, these lands were exclusive. Only few rich could come in time to buy property before it was sold out, and to sit on the beach you had to have either a property or a reservation. Only few ponies were aloud on those beaches everyday, to keep the island from being overly crowded everyday. The island was like every other, except for the big houses, and very clean atmosphere.

 

     So, it'd be in your wildest dreams to ever get a chance to even see this place, right? Well that dream just came true, it actually did more then come true. Somehow, someway, you have won a stay at one of the mansions along the bay for a unknown length of time... but most likely a long one. Of course you won't be alone, for this home will be shared. Now you have to share a house with your new roommates and... well... Enjoy the heck out of yourselves! Though, something is quite suspicious about this whole situation.

 

img-3003230-2-page-divider-symbol.jpg

 

Setting:

 

    The Year is 20XX

 

     

        Isle City:  Isle city is a large barrier island, the most southern of them all, the very last, and most eastern. Like any barrier island, it's long and skinny, running right up the coast of the Fillydelphian suburbs. To it's western side is a bay, separating it from the mainland, and to it's east side is the vast ocean. It's bay coast has a lot of large mansion homes, while the ocean coast has more beach-like homes. It's beaches go up the entire island, with guards on duty constantly. Also, there are a lot of bars and restaurants along the beach. The middle of the island has a pretty long boardwalk that doesn't run all the way up the island, but is covers a good length of it. The boardwalk also includes restaurants and bars, as well as stores.The weather, of course, is always perfect. The island isn't tropical at all though. It has no palm trees or much vegetation at all. It's actually mostly suburban with a beach style. The streets run up along the entire island. It's pretty exclusive to the rich, but many come up to the boardwalk to party at bars or clubs.

 

      World: THIS IS A MODERN EQUESTRIA. Equestria is very much like ours, with cars, phones, and computers. Magic is still around, but Equestria is mostly modern now. It's also a democracy, with Princess Celestia and Luna as large parts of this. However, this won't be mentioned much at all in the story.

 

King Isle Manor 

      

Residence: This is a concept of the home your OC will be staying in. It's a  massive Victorian style beach home on the beach.

 

     The house is one of the larger mansions on the bay (West) side of the island. It has a large dock with included boat, yacht, and jet ski's, as well as the equipment needed to use them. It has a large 3 door garage with a SUV and sports car, ready for use. The inside includes many rooms, for many activities like art, arcade games, or parties. It has a huge family room/living area, the kitchen that connects to it, and a large stair case that leads down to this area as well. This is a more complex, detailed, and planned-out version of the home. On the drawn out map, each letter represents a room. If it has a small number, that means that is the second version of that room

 

 

FLOOR 1

img-3003230-3-3cGFYc9.jpg

 

 

FIRST ARROW: This indicates the front of the house, and it's main entrance. 

 

ALL H's STAND FOR HALLWAYS: Halways are long, have pictures and paintings on the walls, and are what connect all the rooms in the house.

 

ALL W's STAND FOR WASHROOMS: -Or Bathrooms. Every bathroom has a golden sink, tub, and shower. Not real gold, but pretty darn nice. They are pretty much all the same and have everything a typical bathroom would have... just more fancy.

 

O: On the map, this is the swirly pair of stairs that lead to the second floor

 

S: On the map, this is the laundry room, and it also leads to the Garage. 

 

G: This is the garage. It can fit 3 cars, has room for storage, and mechanic's tools too. 

 

R(1): The main living area for the downstairs. Has couches, a TV, and is generally just the social epicenter of a house. Again, think of this like any other family room, but a lot more fancy. It has nice decorations too.

 

SHADED AREA: I forgot to put a letter here. If there was to be a letter, it'd be 'D' for the dining area. Has a large table, with fancy settings. Not much too it. To the left is another hall I forgot to lable

 

K: Kitchen. It's huge and is usually run by professional cooks. It has every tool imaginable, as well as any appliances a professional kitchen could have.

 

V: This stands for Vault. It's basically a pantry for expensive food, wine, and spices, all locked up because of how expensive some of these things are.

 

Ar: Arcade. Has arcade games that don't need coins. Pinball, shooters, Skee Ball... you name it, there is a machine for it.

 

L(1) UPSIDE DOWN: A study, or library. It has tons of books on shelves, and a nice quiet place to read or study. This room also holds the houses computers.

 

P: Stands for Porch. This is NOT inside the home, therefore having crossing lines. It has VERY nice patio furniture, a large grill, and many more things. Walk off and head straight and it will lead you down to the dock

 

 

FLOOR 2

img-3003230-7-DVxDkFI.jpg

 

 

o: Stairs lead upstairs

 

B: Bedrooms. Each bedroom can fit 2 or 3 ponies. If it fits 2, it has 2 queen beds, and if it can fit 3, it has 3 single beds. Every room includes a dresser for each pony, a large closet, and a couch. They aren't that fancy, really. The room will change depending on how many players

 

PY: Stands for 'Play' or Playroom. In here are toys for a youngster, and is basically a child friendly room.

 

A: Arts. It has easels, desks, all different paints, and all different instruments including a piano. Anything artistic or musical is in here for enjoyment.

 

W's: bathrooms. I already said this. The H is also the hallway.

 

L(2): Library or study for the upstairs. Not as big, but is almost identical to the one downstairs. Book, places to sit, and computers.

 

PR: Party Room. Has a bar, alcohol, a disco ball, TV's, and DJ booth for all your wild parties. 

 

R(2): Another living area for the upstairs. Identical to the one downstairs with what it holds, except in a different location.

 

 

FLOOR 3:

2pt3zwl.jpg

 

o: Stairs leading to the third floor, a spiral staircase.

 

B: Bedrooms. Each bedroom can fit 2 or 3 ponies. If it fits 2, it has 2 queen beds, and if it can fit 3, it has 3 single beds. Every room includes a dresser for each pony, a large closet, and a couch. They aren't that fancy, really. The room will change depending on how many players.

 

PY: Stands for 'Play' or Playroom. In here are toys for a youngster, and is basically a child friendly room.

 

W's: Bathrooms, same as other floors.

 

H: Hallways.

 

PR 2: The second floor of the partyroom. The partroom is large, with a second level, and this is what that is. It has a bar and other things.

 

ST: Storage area for all sorts of equipment for the party room.

 

 

THE DOCK:

 

Jet ski:

Your Character in the Roleplay

 

     You can choose any OC to your liking, as long as they follow the guidelines that will be posted bellow. Your character must have a modified story in order to place them in a more modern Equestria. Your character, where ever they were living, received a letter. It spoke of a home on this island, and that you have been chosen, but your character ignores it, thinking it's spam. However, they get it again, they throw it away, and again, and again, with continuing failure. Eventually you get a phone call, and a anonymous pony tells you it isn't spam. Out of curiosity, you go to the address given, and look around to find this house was truly left for you.

 

     Your character will be put with others, and will be sharing this house with them. The same thing has happened to them, and now they will share the home with you, though quite suspicious. Here is an application you MUST fill out. Links to your character to a outside source are fine, but this is a ADVANCED ROLEPLAY, that expects your character to be fit backstory, appearance, age, and personality wise to the RP. Don't worry, these thing really won't change that much. Honestly you can copy and paste your char's backstory, as long as you skim through and make it canon to this story.

 

Name: (Pony name)

 

Gender: (Oak: Are you a boy, or a girl?)

 

Age: (Anything from 18 to 35. I want to keep it young. If you have a character younger then 18, they must have a parent/guardian that has brought them along. You will have to play the parent/guardian aswell)

 

Race: (Anything canon and REASONABLE from the show. Pony races include pegasus, unicorn, or earth pony. No alicorns, or changelings)

 

Appearance: (Either a description or picture of your character. By the way, your character has to be atleast a little ordinary looking. No red and black OC's with devil horns.... Try to have your character look like it came out of the show, however there will be exceptions)

 

Personality: (How does your character act? Your OC can be mean, it's actually wanted. No Mary-Sues'. Your character must have a FLAW. Minimum of 3 sentences)

 

Backstory: (What is your OC's story up to this point? Minimum of 5 sentences)

 

Arrival: (What is your OC's feelings about this trip? Also, how did they get there? If by vehicle, what kind? This can be short) 

 

 

img-3003230-9-page-divider-symbol.jpg

 

Rules:

 

 

-You must have some experience roleplaying. If you are not chosen, please do not be upset. Most of you will be chosen, but I will rule out some OC's. Use another OC if you don't succeed the first time. Also make the required changes

 

-Swimchamp565 is the GM/Gamemaster/Owner/OP/Admin... whatever you call it... Of this roleplay. She will call who gets chosen and also push the plot

 

-No NSFW (But yes, romance) and site rules apply. Drinking alcohol is aloud, but not out of control.

 

-Action is aloud, but nothing more then heated arguments that end in a hoof fight. No guns, weapons, or anything of that sort. Also, excessive drama will not be aloud.

 

-Ludicrous plot turns or actions from your character won't be aloud

 

-No meta-gaming, godmodding... all that junk.

 

-PLEASE BE ACTIVE. If you join, stay, and if you are staying, please post. What kills EVERY SINGLE ROLEPLAY, is a lack of POSTING. Try to take the precautions so that people aren't confused, and can post.

 

-No fighting or arguing. All OOC belongs here. No OOC is aloud in the main thread... once it is made

Could I have two brothers in this story? As in, I control both of them, and they come to the mansion together? Or would you rather have me start with one OC for now?

Name: James Ein

 

Gender: Man man

 

Age: 23

 

Race: Earth Pony

 

Appearance: http://greenteaart.d...quest-509896233Without the cape. His cutiemark is a musical note. (Made by the amazing Izzy, thanks)

 

Personality: Harsh, and tough acting, he tries to hide his weakness and flaws with intimidation, and a snarky attitude, James often gets himself in trouble, and his opinions are very harsh, not caring if he hurts the feelings of anyone. James is also concentrated, but sometimes he looses inspiration, He can get interested by many things, but cannot mantain interest for more then a few minutes, unless he is motivated.

 

Backstory: (This is James' canon backstory that i keep changing every year or so, but i tied it in with this RP)

James was born in Canterlot, alongside with her sister, Emily. They lived a happy childhood, with their parents, Until they had a falling out, and James' mother left them, James' father, tried to get Emily in a music school, horribly failing the entrance test. It was hard managing two children, so James' parent, sent Emily to her Grandad's house in Ponyville. James went to a private school, until money became an issue. He was moved to a public school, and James felt lost.

 

Eventually, James had sparked a curiosity with classical instruments, and so his dad teached him, some small songs and how to read musical notes on a piano. After money was finnaly stable, James' life suddenly got easier, and he enrolled on a music school, learning some piano songs, and also picking up a new instrument, the violin. He earned his cutiemark, a musical note, after he played on a public performance in Canterlot. When James entered highschool, he realised he needed to step up his game a bit, and he started to work on his projects more, eventually getting a small job as a cashier in a store, near his house. 

 

After he left highschool, he tried to enroll in college, succeding. After a few years, in Senior years, he finnaly bought a house, with all the saved up money he had earned in his job. He moved out of his dad's place, and stated unpacking in his new home. His dad went to Manehattan, leaving him alone. Once he finished senior years, getting his Music degree, he opened a small bussiness that selled musical instruments. 

 

After a few months of living in his house, he started to recieve letters. Upon letters, of an invitation to come to a magical island with a beutiful manor. He ignored it, until he was phone called, and was told it was not fake. After that, he packed his things, and got ready to leave home.

 

Arrival: He was at first skeptical, but soon realised it was true, and very magnificent. He was amazed by the place. He got here with a red Range Rover SUV

Well, I saw the concept in several of the art threads on this forum, and it seems like an awfully nice way to weed out those actually reading from those seeing SoL and just instantly signing up.

 

Then again, your call.

 

If this hits 6 people (whom I personally consider have a good track record, which might or might not be the case in reality) I'll join.

Name: Griff

 

Gender: Male

 

Age: 20

 

Race: Griffon

 

Appearance: Z0rdBwv.png

 

Personality: He's generally friendly, maybe sometimes too friendly. However, he's a bit of a hard charger, especially when those he loves or cares for is in danger or has been hurt. He's also got a nasty knack of bottling up his bad feelings.

 

Backstory: Griff was born to a regular griffon couple. Regular, except in the notion of creativity for their first born's name. He's an only child, and was raised in Cloudsdale, where on occasion, when the skies are clear, Isle City is visible. From there, he had an ordinary childhood experience. Some ups, some downs, some mids. Only after the family business went down the loo after some poor decisions made by Griff's father, they were forced to move to the ground. While his parents already had a distaste for ground dwellers, Griff found himself liking life on the ground a whole lot better than life in the clouds. But not everything is with the cherry on top. Griff was only a little bit of the odd one out in Cloudsdale. But here in Ponyville, he was really the odd one out. Meaning like, one out of three griffons, counting his parents. This clearly offed him a bit, but gave him more focus on doing what he loved best: Tinkering around with things that have four wheels and go vroom. If you ask his parents, they'd probably say life actually began for him once he got his license. From there, the griffon moved out of the house just after graduating, and managed to buy a garage in San Flankcisco. He was working one day on some pompous client's SUV, when he received a letter, right on time. Griff, gullible as he may be, doubted at first, but flipping through the brochure, he soon realized that it was not a joke.

 

Arrival: High spirited, due to slight blissfulness. He arrived in his own Mr.Happy.

Name: Sadiere Drop (Sadie)

 

Gender: Girl

 

Age: 20

 

Race: Unicorn

 

Appearance: http://aviouslyadork...ysona-510237622 (There's also more about her there)

 

Personality: She can be very shy due to her past. But if you get to her correctly, she'll talk to you non stop. She's one to not go outside very much, she likes being alone most of the time, talking into a microphone recording herself gaming. 

 

Backstory: Sadie has had a rough oast. She got brought to an orphanage when she wasn't even two yet by her birth mother. She never knew exactly who her parents were, but she had an image in her mind of here original mom and dad looking over her as a young foal with their icy blue eyes. She stayed in the orphanage until she was fourteen, where nopony liked her. She would spend her time in her room alone, and sometimes with a computer. She got adopted by Chris Trott (A youtuber who is part of Hat Films which is part of the yogscast). She had spent 2 years in the University of Bristol trying to major in Computer Science, but she didn't know if she wanted to major in that. She took a break to go to Isle City.

 

Arrival: Sadie wasn't so excited to go to Isle City, she knew that her new housemates would want to spend all their time outside. She thought about maybe vlogging to her veiwers, but she didn't really vlog much so it would feel very different. She didn't really know what to pack because she loved wearing her sweatshirt. Her father drove her over to the mansion in his Toyota Avensis(Made in Prance)

 

Just a litle bit extra: She has a British accent, (Even though I'm not from the UK, I spell most words the british way "colour, honour, favour...") and her accessories are a Top hat which she got from Trott when she was first adopted and a large blue sweatshirt with Hat Films's logo on it. She also is a youtuber for her occupation.

Name: Artemis Fowl

 

Gender: boi

 

Age: 21

 

Race: Griffin

 

Appearance: ringo_the__delivery_griffon_by_wonder_wa

 

Personality: Artemis is a country boy, through and through, and he won't hesitate to berate and insult those who complain that their life is so hard because they lost their car keys, or they can't afford the latest smart phone. He's the youngest of 6 brothers, and knows what actual difficulty in life is. Despite his abrasive personality and attempts to make himself look better at things, he's not a bad person, and is more than happy to help those who are willing to put a little help into themselves.

 

Backstory: As mentioned before, Artemis is the youngest of 6 brothers, and has always had to try his hardest to keep up with his elders on his family's farm in the cold griffon kingdom mountains. Freezing working conditions all year round except summer and 7 day work weeks have made him into a rugged, rough and strong worker. The fact that he worked harder than most of his brothers did also helped.

 

Artemis learned everything he knows how to do on the farm. He learnt to hunt, grow and tend to crops, how to repair a barn, and how to repair machinery. Unfortunately for him, very few of these skills can carry him in the middle of a big city with not one patch of farmland in a hundred miles, and he'll probably have to adapt quickly if he wants to, well, live.

 

Arrival: Artemis didn't want to leave the farm at first, requiring his entire family's assurance that it was okay and that they will manage to survive without him. They also told him that he could just call or email them if he wanted to talk. He packed his truck and drove down the entire west coast of Equestria to find his new home.

 

When he parked up and stepped out, he was greeted by extreme heat, a crystal clear sky, and a big house with dozens of rooms and space for everyone.

 

And he didn't like it one bit.

 

(ps this is his car

Spoiler
)

 

I might make a second character later. Hope this is okay.

What is the point of putting extraneous remarks like these in the applications thread? For a start, you waste your own time and secondly, you waste the GM's time. Keep it to the discussions thread at the very least.

When James entered highschool, he realised he needed to step up his game a bit, and he started to work on his projects more, eventually getting a small job as a cashier in a store, near his house. 

 

After he left highschool, he tried to enroll in college, succeding. After a few years, in Senior years, he finnaly bought a house, with all the saved up money he had earned in his job. He moved out of his dad's place, and stated unpacking in his new home. His dad went to Manehattan, leaving him alone. Once he finished senior years, getting his Music degree, he opened a small bussiness that selled musical instruments. 

 

After a few months of living in his house, he started to recieve letters. Upon letters, of an invitation to come to a magical island with a beutiful manor. He ignored it, until he was phone called, and was told it was not fake. After that, he packed his things, and got ready to leave home.

 

Arrival: He was at first skeptical, but soon realised it was true, and very magnificent. He was amazed by the place. He got here with a red Range Rover SUV

Name: Griff

 

Gender: Male

 

Age: 20

 

Race: Griffon

 

Appearance: Z0rdBwv.png

 

Personality: He's generally friendly, maybe sometimes too friendly. However, he's a bit of a hard charger, especially when those he loves or cares for is in danger or has been hurt. He's also got a nasty knack of bottling up his bad feelings.

 

Backstory: Griff was born to a regular griffon couple. Regular, except in the notion of creativity for their first born's name. He's an only child, and was raised in Cloudsdale, where on occasion, when the skies are clear, Isle City is visible. From there, he had an ordinary childhood experience. Some ups, some downs, some mids. Only after the family business went down the loo after some poor decisions made by Griff's father, they were forced to move to the ground. While his parents already had a distaste for ground dwellers, Griff found himself liking life on the ground a whole lot better than life in the clouds. But not everything is with the cherry on top. Griff was only a little bit of the odd one out in Cloudsdale. But here in Ponyville, he was really the odd one out. Meaning like, one out of three griffons, counting his parents. This clearly offed him a bit, but gave him more focus on doing what he loved best: Tinkering around with things that have four wheels and go vroom. If you ask his parents, they'd probably say life actually began for him once he got his license. From there, the griffon moved out of the house just after graduating, and managed to buy a garage in San Flankcisco. He was working one day on some pompous client's SUV, when he received a letter, right on time. Griff, gullible as he may be, doubted at first, but flipping through the brochure, he soon realized that it was not a joke.

 

Arrival: High spirited, due to slight blissfulness. He arrived in his own Mr.Happy.

Accepted (lol, Mr. Happy)

 

 

 

Name: Sadiere Drop (Sadie)

 

Gender: Girl

 

Age: 20

 

Race: Unicorn

 

Appearance: http://aviouslyadork...ysona-510237622 (There's also more about her there)

 

Personality: She can be very shy due to her past. But if you get to her correctly, she'll talk to you non stop. She's one to not go outside very much, she likes being alone most of the time, talking into a microphone recording herself gaming. 

 

Backstory: Sadie has had a rough oast. She got brought to an orphanage when she wasn't even two yet by her birth mother. She never knew exactly who her parents were, but she had an image in her mind of here original mom and dad looking over her as a young foal with their icy blue eyes. She stayed in the orphanage until she was fourteen, where nopony liked her. She would spend her time in her room alone, and sometimes with a computer. She got adopted by Chris Trott (A youtuber who is part of Hat Films which is part of the yogscast). She had spent 2 years in the University of Bristol trying to major in Computer Science, but she didn't know if she wanted to major in that. She took a break to go to Isle City.

 

Arrival: Sadie wasn't so excited to go to Isle City, she knew that her new housemates would want to spend all their time outside. She thought about maybe vlogging to her veiwers, but they don't know what she looks like yet because she kept it a secret. She didn't really know what to pack because she loved wearing her sweatshirt. Her father drove her over to the mansion in his Toyota Avensis(Made in Prance)

 

Just a litle bit extra: She has a British accent, (Even though I'm not from the UK, I spell most words the british way "colour, honour, favour...") and her accessories are a Top hat which she got from Trott when she was first adopted and a large blue sweatshirt with Hat Films's logo on it. She also is a youtuber for her occupation.

 

 

I am a bit skeptical of the overused orphan story, and kind of random YouTube involvement, but you haven't wronged me in any past RP's... So, accepted

 

 

 

Name: Artemis Fowl

 

Gender: boi

 

Age: 21

 

Race: Griffin

 

Appearance: ringo_the__delivery_griffon_by_wonder_wa

 

Personality: Artemis is a country boy, through and through, and he won't hesitate to berate and insult those who complain that their life is so hard because they lost their car keys, or they can't afford the latest smart phone. He's the youngest of 6 brothers, and knows what actual difficulty in life is. Despite his abrasive personality and attempts to make himself look better at things, he's not a bad person, and is more than happy to help those who are willing to put a little help into themselves.

 

Backstory: As mentioned before, Artemis is the youngest of 6 brothers, and has always had to try his hardest to keep up with his elders on his family's farm in the cold griffon kingdom mountains. Freezing working conditions all year round except summer and 7 day work weeks have made him into a rugged, rough and strong worker. The fact that he worked harder than most of his brothers did also helped.

 

Artemis learned everything he knows how to do on the farm. He learnt to hunt, grow and tend to crops, how to repair a barn, and how to repair machinery. Unfortunately for him, very few of these skills can carry him in the middle of a big city with not one patch of farmland in a hundred miles, and he'll probably have to adapt quickly if he wants to, well, live.

 

Arrival: Artemis didn't want to leave the farm at first, requiring his entire family's assurance that it was okay and that they will manage to survive without him. They also told him that he could just call or email them if he wanted to talk. He packed his truck and drove down the entire west coast of Equestria to find his new home.

 

When he parked up and stepped out, he was greeted by extreme heat, a crystal clear sky, and a big house with dozens of rooms and space for everyone.

 

And he didn't like it one bit.

 

(ps this is his car

Spoiler
)

 

I might make a second character later. Hope this is okay.

 

 

Perfect. Accepted. Your car reminds me of the mesa in GTA, your whole story kind of reminds me of GTA. Who knows why, but I like it anyhow


What is the point of putting extraneous remarks like these in the applications thread? For a start, you waste your own time and secondly, you waste the GM's time. Keep it to the discussions thread at the very least.

The comments are not really needed, but discussion can be here too. That's how I usually do it

Name: Solar Star

 

Gender: Male

 

Age: 25

 

Race: Unicorn

 

Appearance: http://i.imgur.com/Fs3x5n0.png

 

Personality: Quiet, and helping. Likes to read. Hates extreme things.

 

Backstory: In a rather large house in Manehattan, Solar Star was born. He had a knack of being smart, and was always one step ahead of what he was learning in school. He was very quiet during his school times, and he made only a few real friends. But without major distractions, he went on to being one of the best ponies in the school, despite not really having much of a social life outside of his friends.

 

When Solar graduated, he went along as to be an astronomer, to study the stars, as when he got his cutie mark, that was the case. He worked as an assistant to one at the Manehattan Planetarium and got an okay pay. He moved into a small flat, and for around a year, lived in more or less of a peaceful life.

 

That is, until the letters started to rain down. Annoyed, and troubled, Solar kept throwing the letters away for a time, until he actually read one of them. He dismissed it almost immediately, thinking it was some sort of scam. When he got the phone call, however, he quickly changed. After getting his things ready, he called his brother, and asked him to come with him...

 

Arrival: As Solar arrived, he was stunned. It was certainly bigger than his parents' Manehattan house. He arrived in a white, more casual, motorcycle

 

__________________________________

 

Name: Wolfgang Star

 

Gender: Male

 

Age: 23

 

Race: Earth pony

 

Appearance: A darker blue body, with black hair. He has a sheriffs star as a cutie mark

 

Personality: Strong, and hearty. Wolfgang likes to move around, run, and do more extreme things. However, he tends to try to show off and look good in front of others, which doesn't always work out well for him

 

Backstory: Wolfgang was born a year after Solar. Although he did well in school, and was moderately smart, he had a knack for doing risky things. He loved to watch biker gangs and walk around the city with his small gang of friends. He loved to do stunts, and although he was an Earth Pony, he loved watching the modern day version of the Wonderboltz. Wolfgang was usually active during his younger years, and he enjoyed many active things.

 

When he graduated, he applied to work at a business as a security guard. He liked the job, and enjoyed the pay. He bought a very small apartment in Manehattan, where he never liked to stay in anyway, since he thought it was too small. He wanted bigger, better. And he worked as hard as he could to do so.

 

One day, Wolfgang received a call from his older brother, Solar, inviting him to stay in a "wonderful place" as he called it. Wolfgang didn't believe him, but when Solar came over and gave him proof, Wolfgang was packed up and ready before he knew it.

 

Arrival: Wolfgang arrived, following his brother, since only he knew the directions. He looked up at the mansion, and in his mind, he screamed of joy. Wolfgang drives a more gang-like motorcycle.

Name: Professor Annabella Belle

 

Gender: Mare

 

Age: 32

 

Race: Pony: Pegasus

 

Appearance:

large.png

 

Personality: Anna's personality is mainly the way it is because of how she grew up, and what was around her growing up. Since she was born in a rich home, always being taught the correct way by professional nurses and maids, she has a very good base. Anna is friendly, very polite, intuitive, and observing. As for other personality attributes, the biggest of them all is her vast and massive knowledge. She's a bookwork, she loves books, and is always striving to be better, not only with books, but with everything. She's a bit awkward, a little bland socially, but this is only because she doesn't have much experience with friends or other ponies. Anna can have a sense of humor sometimes, but others she can be a buzzkill. Another thing that shines through, is a bit of a snob, very rarely. This was inherited from her mother and her surroundings in the Belle family, but she doesn't share all the same traits as her family, instead she is very down to earth unlike them. However, other flaws include Anna losing control in hard situations, giving her either a temper, or a quitting attitude.

 

As a mother, she is very loving. Zeus is her pride and joy. She does anything for him, but at the same time, raises him correctly

 

Backstory: Anna got her title as a professor back in Canterlot, in her University Days. She grew up to a wealthy family, who owned a massive cooperation in Canterlot. Though she was part of her wealthy family, she was secluded from it, and actually grew up in Cloudsdale where her mother created a different branch of the business. Originally Anna's mother wanted her to be a diva and model because of her good looks and attitude, but when her daughter matured, she was content with Anna instead taking a route into being a much more educated mare. Anna was doing well in college as a apprentice to another professor, she even met a stallion, but he lead to her downfall. This stallion betrayed her, cheated on her, and in the end got her pregnant... Then left. It was quite tragic, especially since Anna was never able to finish her training to become her universities next big professor.

 

Anna moved to Ponyville for awhile, to raise the colt she was left with. She named him Zeus, and later he would grow to be a very polite and intelligent little colt. Anna supported his talent of becoming a sailboat racer, and eventually, a little sea captain. Anna moves around to tend to Zeus' needs to get better in his field of sailing. So far she is proud to be the mother of such a successful little colt, who seems to be reaching unimaginable heights with his skills on the sea.

 

(( You can read a much more detailed, and better backstory on my profile. It isn't modernized, though ))

 

Arrival: Anna was in Manehattan when her phone blew up with emails. It annoyed her, so she ignored them, but eventually got a call. Isle City?! Thinking of her son and all the legendary opportunities he could have with races in Isle City, she pulled Zeus out of the classes he was in to pack up and go there right away.

 

Anna arrived in a 2015 Chevy Tahoe

2015-gmc-yukon-denali-front.jpg

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Name: Zeus Belle

 

Gender: Colt

 

Age: 10

 

Race: Pony: Pegasus

 

Appearance: large.jpg

 

Personality: Zeus is a pretty mellow colt. He's quiet sometimes, and wants to be by himself, either doing work, or sleeping. Other times he's very energetic and just wants to talk your ear off about all sorts of things he encounter recently. He has that innocent, cute, little flare to him, but is also mature other times, which can make him very curious about things that he has yet to learn. Either way, he's very polite and friendly, because it seems his mother raised him right. Zeus just loves his mother, he's really a momma's boy, he sticks up for her and acts like a big tough stallion, despite his father not being around (Which he is well aware of).

 

As for flaws, Zeus gets very defensive about his talent. He'll get cocky and arrogant if you try to debunk his achievements with your own. It's a weird tick he has, probably inherited from his dad. He also overworks himself, and doesn't socialize for long periods of times if he's working on something. Around other foals, he doesn't always fit in. He'll also lose his place among adults, being a 10 year old, he tries to hard to be mature sometimes and ends up being a brat.

 

Backstory: Zeus is Anna's son, a energetic and very intelligent little colt who spends his spare time working on boats, and racing them. Ever since he was 6, he's been traveling all around Equestria to race in races, and get lessons to further better his skills. At this point he has a lot under his belt, he's won multiple races, and can drive boats up to the size of yachts, as well as understand how they work. With all the moving around, Zeus hasn't gotten around to making friends, but is pretty social... with adults, at least. He sometimes wonders where his dad is, but Anna already explained to him where he was and what he did. It's kind of a void, but Zeus doesn't really mind it.

 

Arrival: Zeus was in school in Manehattan at the time, learning the mechanics of ships and such, until he was randomly pulled out by his mom. He didn't mind, especially since they were going to Isle City.

Personality: He is blunt and honest pony. He is very direct and expect others to do the same when talking to him so you both won't waste each others time with trivial matters. being a workaholic he is easily stressed out. that does't make him a rude pony, doesn't get into arguments often as he feels those don't benefit him the slightest.

 

Backstory: Strike was born to a rich family that owned a security company in Manehattan. His childhood was normal as any other foal, he went to private school had his share of friends most of which were sons and daughters of others CEO and owners of other business.He himself at school he wasn't bad but he was no genius either, he was just a normal kid. He grew up and very soon joined the family business with his father "teaching" him how the world worked and to one day take over the company. 

 

That day came too soon. When he was only 18 his father died and as expected from him and took over the company. This proved to be too much for him as he started to focus more and more on his work eventually neglecting every thing that wasn't work related such as his friends and family. Years passed and he became a solitary pony who lived to work, had therapy twice a week and a terrible habit of locking his keys inside the car.

 

One day he received a letter talking about this vacation mansion he dismissed as nonsense, for the first... Second.... Third time.. This made him ridiculously mad only proving the point that he in fact needed a vacation. After a giant argument with his secretary she finally convinced him to go on this trip.

 

Arrival:  Strike is very skeptical about all this, he doesn't need no vacation he's fine... Or so he thinks. Strike got to the Mansion with his newly acquired  http://gta.wikia.com/MarquisWhat else are you going to blow money into when you go nowhere outside from house and work?

Name: High Orbit

 

Gender: Male

 

Age: 24

 

Race: Pegasus

 

Appearance

: gkQBFhR.png

Perpetually carries a sling bag around, containing his work laptop and several other oddities.

 

Personality: Several years of non-stop travelling as a foal has left Orbit rather reluctant to consider friendships with other ponies, a trait which still remains to this day. He will converse if spoken to, or if he has business to deal with said pony, but otherwise he does not prefer to initiate conversation. To the few friends he does have, Orbit still comes off as a quiet stallion, though loyal to a fault and extremely talented, especially when it comes to his field of work. Orbit has several other traits, though cleverly hidden and not easy to find owing to his introversion.

 

Backstory: Canon backstory is applicable and included, with the following modules added.

Spoiler

University Days

 

Soon after Orbit left high school, he was taken on a whirlwind tour of university after university, keeping in accordance with his father's travels. His grades enabled the switches to be done with ease, but the experience was still disorientating every time, leading the already shy pegasus to become even more introverted than he usually was. A notable exception was his brief two-year stint in West Manehatten University, the local university of his hometown, where in a bizarre breach of normality Orbit stayed for two years, forming a tentative and temporary friendship with several other ponies.

 

After that period, Orbit's father returned, and once again took his foal on the road. Completing his studies at a university in Canterlot, majoring primarily in the new field of Arcanotechnology, Sky finally let Orbit travel by himself, as well as securing Orbit a spot in the company he was currently employed in.

 

Suddenly feeling even more insecure than he had been even during his university days, Orbit set out on his own for the first time in eternity.

 

 

Arrival

 

Orbit spent several years working at his job, rapidly rising through the ranks though he wasn't a race which could handle the nature of his assignments with ease. What he lacked in magical manipulation however, he made up for with innovation and creativity in his designs.

 

The first few messages were given not more than cursory glances, before being discarded. Even though his job was one that allowed him to work from the relative comfort of his home, namely his late father's white RV, it also meant he was constantly on the go, whether to inspect a certain magical system or to have a meeting with clients from far and wide. The last thing he needed was someplace to stay put in, irregardless of however expensive it looked.

 

Orbit eventually found himself blocking the IP of the sender due to the amount of requests that were coming in, but even that was only a brief respite. A call came in on his satellite phone, confirming the validity of the messages sent, and still insisting on him coming over. An hour long tussle ensued, in which Orbit repeatedly stated that he simply couldn't afford to live in one place, especially during his company's crucial period of research and development. The call ended with a less than amused Orbit checking his schedule, before grudgingly driving his white RV out of the trailer park it was currently in, making a beeline for the town of Manehatten and the ferry that was to depart for the island.

 

After all, the pony on the line did say he'd call back to confirm.

 

((Ack, not up to my quality standards. It will be fun trying to RP a grumpy Orbit, though.))

 

EDIT: RV for reference.

Guess who's back?

 

Name: Mae

 

Gender: guurrrrrrrll

 

Age: 24

 

Race: Erf pun

 

Appearance: Blue furred, with a catty look about her and matching lighter blue hair with a red-purple dyed streak down the middle. She barely even has a mane, it just blends in with her fur. Mae constantly wears warm clothes, even though Manehatten is much warmer than her hometown ever got. Her favourite wardrobe is a long sleeved red shirt with a denial symbol on it, jeans and large boots.

 

Personality: Mae is a delinquent, through and through. She hates authority, the rich, the government, the police, and many, many other things for various underlying reasons, but at the core of it is the fact she just finds it cool to hate. She often speaks her mind about things, good or bad, and while that's not made her many friends, she isn't going to change herself for people she doesn't care about. To her actual friends, though, she is loyal, chummy, always willing to hang out, even if she still possesses the angst she should have lost when she exited teenagehood. Though Mae might be a hateful bitch sometimes, deep down she does truly want to spend time with friends, especially after leaving her hometown where she only had 4 friends that stuck around with her.

 

Backstory: Mae was born and raised in a town in the north of Equestria. A place called Possum Springs, which was a long standing mining town discovered during the gold rush. She spent her time ignoring everything her teachers tried to teach and spent her spare time running around the town with her friends, or smashing stuff with a baseball bat.

 

Eventually, though, she had to grow up, even though she didn't want to, ever.

 

Her parents sent her to a college, them being the first in their families to be able to afford to send their child there. She tried to learn, so that her parents money wouldn't have been wasted. She managed to do well for a few years, before eventually dropping out. She headed back home, to Possum Springs, only to find everything felt so different. She moved back in with her parents, spending time with her friends before they would all end up splitting apart because of conflicting plans. Afterwards, she moved to an apartment in Manehatten with a bunch of other ponies, but it turned out she simply couldn't get along with anyone ever, and she left after getting a job, moving into a loft of a shop, where she spent 2 years wasting her money on a car, video games, an extra strong internet connection, and bail fees. Eventually a letter fell through her mailbox and she packed her bags and never looked back.

 

Arrival: Drove up in a 1969 corvette stingray

Spoiler
, and the moment she saw the new house, she realized that she was finally at home again.

 

 

Yeah I recycled pretty much everything from the Manehatten apartment app.

Name: Bluebird

 

Gender: Mare

 

Age: 21

 

Race: Pegasus

 

Appearance: 

Spoiler

 

Personality: Bluebird is a mare who only shows her emotions through her actions. Seeing any type of expression on her face is rare besides the occasional widened or narrowed eyes. Always, Bluebird is extremely blunt. She'll tell you what she thinks right away, no matter how rude or odd it may be. Around others, she gives off a outlandish vibe due to her strange actions, but if you get to know her she's mostly a caring pony.

 

Backstory: 

Ever since Bluebird was a (very short) child, she has been the same. She was raised into a small, yet wealthy family in Manehattan. Her parents were very proper ponies who didn't want others to think they were better, so they had a fairly large house, and they taught Bluebird to act the same. In school, she didn't have, nor didn't need friends. She was lazy with her grades; she made sure to do enough work so that she was just passing, this only adding to the reasons why other ponies mostly avoided her. When she finally grew up, her parents gave her enough money to get her own house and live just as well as they did, and so she did so. In terms of friends, she has only gained a few up until now.

 

Arrival: At first, Bluebird was quite irritated with the messages she got, and she simply ignored them and threw them away. Though, deep inside, she was curious and wanted to find out if they were real or not. When she received the call, she was more excited rather than suspicious. Immediately, she packed and planned her trip to the island, and in the end she took a ferry there.

Personality: Has a major inferiority complex, because of this he doesn't meet many other ponnies and appears very shy and spends most of his time alone working on puzzles
Bio: Night Breeze was the last in his gradeschool class to earn his cutie mark. He is slightly clumsy and prefers walking to using his wings. He enjoys puzzles & reading- really anything to occupy his mind. He was born in trottingham, but his father got a job in Canterlot at the end of his second grade year, Night enjoyed the numerous parks in the area but always preferred to play alone. He was sent to a private school for third grade where he developed a strong crush on a pony named Nightingale, though she moved away shortly thereafter. He moved yet again to manehatten during his freshpony year in high school. Once in college, Night crossed paths with Nightingale once again, however she vanished from his life after a few months. Still unable to forget her, Night fell into a deep depression and became engrossed in his studies. A short time after graduation, he won a trip to a tropical island, where he ran into many of his classmates… including Nightingale. This time, he was determined not to leave anything to chance; he proposed to her, but she wouldn’t answer him and walked out of his life for the last time. After that, he roamed from town to town, working odd jobs- moving when he felt he was getting too close to anyone
Arival: he is very apprehensive about this trip, but something in the back of his mind is telling him that this will be the fresh start he needs.

Name: Light Spectrum

Gender: Mare (Oak: Are you a boy, or a girl? :D Pokemon Platinum ftw!)

Age: 19

Race: Pegasus

Appearance:

Spoiler

 

Personality: Kind and caring, but a little mischievous and childish.

Backstory: Spectrum was the only child of Starite Shard and High Flier. They were a middle class family, but they had a substantial sum of money, and a small home. However, at the age of 1 and a half, Spectrum's house caught on fire. High Flier died, and Starite was able to get Spectrum out of harm's way, before she too died of smoke inhalation. After her parents tragic deaths, Spectrum was put up for adoption and was taken in by the wealthy Miss Opal Crystal and Argon Shine. Spectrum grew up with her new parents until she was 15. During that time, her adoptive parents tried in vain to turn her into a fine mare. However, Spectrum simply could not become chivalrous. She was a true tomboy, and continued to do childish things and actions. At the age of 16 however, a group of robbers broke into the house and killed her parents. Spectrum, a quicker thinker, jumped out the window and flew off for help. By the time the police arrived, however, her parents were dead. 

 

After that time, Spectrum simply disappeared. No one could find any trace of her for the next 3 and a half years. After that time, Spectrum reappeared just as quickly as she disappeared. Spectrum spent much of her time retelling some stories of her travels around Equestria. However, a few months after moving back in, Spectrum got a letter in the mail. It spoke of a house on an island. Spectrum, threw away the letter thinking that it was mislabeled, but she kept getting the letters, and finally a call. Soon, Spectrum packed her bags and flew off to the island, thinking of the new adventures it may hold.

Arrival: Spectrum is a little nervous, but mainly she is excited. Spectrum is arriving by flight, by her own wings.

Backstory:
She was born in Trottingham and lived there for most of her life.

She goes to Manehattan often because it's where her publisher is stationed. A colleague who takes photographs for her books lead her to the archipelago to inspire new recipes and flavour combinations.
 
Arrival:

That's not really the point, though. It just seems kind of silly for this sort of RP and it's just ultimately pointless to your character since it doesn't seem to have affected her at all or at least that's not made explicit.

 

Other than that, I'd say you need more information about her. What's her cutie mark? If she doesn't have a cutie mark, why not? Does she have hobbies?

It's because it's very cliche, mostly.

Name: Bluebird


Gender: Mare


Age: 21


Race: Pegasus


Appearance:

Spoiler


Personality: Bluebird is a mare who only shows her emotions through her actions. Seeing any type of expression on her face is rare besides the occasional widened or narrowed eyes. Always, Bluebird is extremely blunt. She'll tell you what she thinks right away, no matter how rude or odd it may be. Around others, she gives off a outlandish vibe due to her strange actions, but if you get to know her she's mostly a caring pony.


Backstory:

Ever since Bluebird was a (very short) child, she has been the same. She was raised into a small, yet wealthy family in Manehattan. Her parents were very proper ponies who didn't want others to think they were better, so they had a fairly large house, and they taught Bluebird to act the same. In school, she didn't have, nor didn't need friends. She was lazy with her grades; she made sure to do enough work so that she was just passing, this only adding to the reasons why other ponies mostly avoided her. When she finally grew up, her parents gave her enough money to get her own house and live just as well as they did, and so she did so. In terms of friends, she has only gained a few up until now.


Arrival: At first, Bluebird was quite irritated with the messages she got, and she simply ignored them and threw them away. Though, deep inside, she was curious and wanted to find out if they were real or not. When she received the call, she was more excited rather than suspicious. Immediately, she packed and planned her trip to the island, and in the end she took a ferry there.


Eh... Alright. Accepted

He was born in trottingham, but move to Canterlot when he was very young, after College he moved to ponyville for a while. He considers himself a familiar is relationships, as he only had eyes for one mare since early in school- and she walked away from him when he proposed.

Thx for your honest opinion; I origonally typed that on my phone and cut it short for ease of typing. I fixed the incorrect autocorrections, typo's, and expounded a bit- here's a new bio for nightbreeze:

Night Breeze was the last in his gradeschool class to earn his cutie mark. He is slightly clumsy and prefers walking to using his wings. He enjoys puzzles & reading- really anything to occupy his mind. He was born in trottingham, but his father got a job in Canterlot at the end of his second grade year, Night enjoyed the numerous parks in the area but always preferred to play alone. He was sent to a private school for third grade where he developed a strong crush on a pony named Nightingale, though she moved away shortly thereafter.  He moved yet again to manehatten during his freshpony year in high school. Once in college, Night crossed paths with Nightingale once again, however she vanished from his life after a few months.  Still unable to forget her, Night fell into a deep depression and became engrossed in his studies.  A short time after graduation, he won a trip to a tropical island, where he ran  into many of his classmates… including Nightingale.  This time, he was determined not to leave anything to chance; he proposed to her, but she wouldn’t answer him and walked out of his life for the last time.  After that, he roamed from town to town, working odd jobs- moving when he felt he was getting too close to anyone


In case you were wondering, I consider: school days, uni days & paradise island to be in his official backstory. I pulled a little bit from freshman year too

A good rule of thumb is to remember to not put your OC in a 'holding post' and wait for another OC to fish you out of it, chances are that you'll be there quite a while until either someone else waiting for an interaction comes to talk or the OC's already having conversationns finish talking.

It's like real life; you want someone to talk with you, man up and go talk to them.

((Changing interaction. Personal opinion, Swim, but you could have this elusive Marks show up just to give a topic of discussion, rather than freelance chatting, Plus, it'd give an opportunity to give the RPers who aren't currently having an interaction (eg Squint) a chance to talk.))

 

 

Orbit walked back into his house, having fetched the papers he required. Glancing around at the furniture and the ambiance, he couldn't help but sigh. It was a nice house, that was for sure, everypony's ideal holiday retreat.

 

Sadly, it was wasted on him. If Mr Marks had wanted him for business, he could have just asked outright, so things could be settled easier. As it stood, Orbit thought, there was no chance he would get to relax as of now.

 

Placing the papers next to the laptop, he unfurled what looked like a complex diagram of some sort of engine, then paused.

 

Why was he letting work run his life, anyways?

 

Shaking his head, he decided to leave it be for now, trotting up the stairs. He would settle the issues later-

 

Orbit's train of thought was cut short as his wings flailed, nearly tripping over a grey foal in the hallway. Barely managing to duck to one side, he finally tripped over in a cloud of stray papers, blinking in surprise.

 

"...Sorry about that," he said, shaking his head to clear the dizziness, "Didn't see you there." 

 

 

Anna was in her room, quietly unpacking their things. She picked a room at the end of the hall with two single beds, one for her son, and on for herself. Though, Zeus still got scared at night and came and laid with her sometimes. Was it a waste of a bed? Probably not. As a pony, of course Anna didn't have much to unpack. As for clothes, she had a couple extra lab coats (Because we all know how much Anna loves those) 2 nice dresses, and a suit for Zeus. That was about it for clothes, other things included a trunk full of Zeus' boat things, with a tool box in the car, and a bag with things for the bathroom (Toothbrushes and such). Of all the things she had, Anna had a small bag that she cherished most. In this bag were pictures that Anna brought to anywhere the two of them went. It had all sorts of pictures, ranging from when Anna was in college, to when Zeus was born, and to that day. She had a whole collection, and as she set them up on her nightstand, Zeus came in to watch. He wasn't surprised to see she brought them here too. He knew they were special to her.

"Momma, why don't you meet all the nice ponies here? I was just talking to a really nice griffon, and he wanted to go fishing! They really aren't that bad, you've been quiet since we've gotten here..." Her little colt said, laying on his bed.

"Well.." Anna began, realizing even her colt was picking up on her attitude. "I'm not exactly a big fan of this island, to tell you the truth. There's just many things about it's-"

"You don't like it here?! But it's so nice momma!" Zeus said

"I know sweetie" Anna said "It's a long story. I'll go meet the ponies, if you stay in here and try to get things done. Okay?"

Zeus nodded, and Anna peaked her head out into the hall. She finally stepped out and straightened her coat

Night was roused after a few minutes when he heard voices. He got up and slowly sauntered towards them, around the corner he saw two mares, a young foal & a strangely familiar stallion. He figured he should probably introduce himself, so he leaned against the wall and waited for them to finish talking among themselves

I've been purposely waiting to see whether the Col issue would affect RP in the forums, most notably the response of the players in this RP (whom two cited Col issues as a reason to stop RPing).

I've been purposely waiting to see whether the Col issue would affect RP in the forums, most notably the response of the players in this RP (whom two cited Col issues as a reason to stop RPing).

For me, it died the second the GM bailed ship, but eh, we can keep on juggling dialogue between us till it goes to ashes, I suppose.

I didn't bail, I actually have most of a post involving Marks already typed. I'm sorry I'm in the middle of fucking nowhere, and this whole week, I was busy between school and getting prepared for the middle of this fucking nowhere. You guys can absolutely still post, please do so until I return

right, here we go

 

Name: Winter Petal

 

Gender: Female

 

Age: 30

 

Race: Earth pony

 

Appearance: Light purple coat, light blue mane tied into a ponytail with a pink ribbon, green eyes and her cutie mark is a shooting star

 

Personality: She is quite a nice pony most of time. she can get annoyed sometimes if someone keeps annoying her. she will get VERY angry if someone hurts her Daughter on purpose.

 

Backstory: Winter Petal grew up in the outskirts of Ponyville with her mother and farther. she had a nice childhood with quite a few friends. from a young age she was interested in astrology and stars. she got her cutie mark when she was 11 when she saw a shooting star though her telescope one night. when she was 19 she moved out of her parents house and moved to Cantelot fell in love with a stallion, Blaze. when she was 21 she gave birth to her daughter, Amber Blossom. Shortly after Amber was born, Blaze abandoned them and left Winter to bring up Amber on her own. very angry about this, Winter has not looked for another stallion since.

 

Arrival: She was quite excited about going to a really smart place, but also curious why a rich pony would invite someone he never met to his mansion. she came in one of these:

Name: Amber Blossom

 

Gender: Female

 

Age: 9 (with Winter Petal, her mother)

 

Race: Earth Pony

 

Appearance: Light blue coat, pink mane, golden colored eyes, no cutie mark at the moment, her back right leg ends in a stump just below the knee, because of this she has a prosthetic (is that how you spell it?) leg.

 

Personality: She is a kind, fun loving filly. who would be glad to make friends with someone quite quickly.

She has a slight fear of griffons, and will seems to go a little shy when talking to one

 

Backstory: Amber was raised in Canterlot by her mother. she never knew her father as he left soon after she was born. so far her childhood has been quite nice with some friends at school who she plays with online. sometimes her mother takes her to Ponyville to see her grandparents and she has a good time with them. when she was 7 she was in a car accident which cost her her right hindleg below the knee (ask Winter in the rp to get more details if you want). she has had an interest in swimming from a young age and hopes she may get a cutie mark in swimming. she is a strong swimmer and can hold her breath underwater for a good amount of time.

 

Arrival: she was very excited to go to this tropical place, hoping she may be able to make some friends there or maybe get her cutie mark. she came with her mother.

Name: Toxic Flame

Age: 24

Race: Pegasus

Appearance: My profile picture, excepting her cutie mark as it is a beaker of purple solution, with purple goggles due to eyesight problem

Personality: She's shy at times in front of a huge crowd, but a daredevil most of the time.

Backstory: Raised in a town near the Badlands, she took an interest to science. She once bought a chemical, a strange one, but when she tried to make a plant with it (No plants, they ate meat at the time) it blew up in her face, forcing her to wear a pair of purple goggles to help her poor vision. Later on her family got better, moving to Ponyville. Shortly after, her father got heart disease and died due to the fatty vegitarian burgers, as well as potato fries and such. At age 11, her last cat died of hyperthyroid, the others dying not long before her birth. She moved out to a nice hut near the woods, and then she got the letter. She packed her bags and took off in her mini-Jeep to the coast, and flew to the island.


I know this sounds bad but my dad in real life has heart disease and my cat in real life is sixteen and dying. The others, I never got to know. My mother is always alive, though.

So, guess who missed roleplay too much to leave the site alone? I've been in contact with Blazer as of late, who's been telling me RP's been dying. We can't have that now, can we? Forgive me, though, I'm a bit rusty, and one of these characters I have never RP'ed before.

I say it's about time to finally wrap up the stuff going on with Nightingale and Night Breeze, eh? It's been going on for a while, it's about time to bring that to a happy close. Thank Blazer for finally talking me into coming on to the scene again.

I will take control as GM if everyone's fine with it, I suppose.

Apps will follow Uni Day's law of three if you people are good with it.

Green and Star, you're pretty much clear to join, we've kept you waiting long enough.

Let's get this show on the road.

Just make sure it doesnt end up sinking again, the last thing this needs is another hiatus from activity.

Plus, you're the one having the plot.

My OC's family lived far from any plant, so they had to feed on the few scrawny animals nearby. Toxic was born there, sadly.

 

Still a strange reason, though. Is it a critical plot point for your character, or can it be simplified to fit into canon, while still holding the meaning that makes your OC who she/he is?

 

Perhaps her family lived off shoots and other scrub-land plants instead? It wouldn't change much in her backstory plot-wise, her cutie mark could be explained by her trying to create something more palatable (tomatoes instead of weeds?), and the rest could just be fitted in nicely as overindulgence of things they had never got the chance to try before.

 

Don't see how the cat thing ties in to anything else, though, you might want to expand on that too. Why were cats so important to your OC? Why did she move out? Was it because she found Ponyville life too boring/constrained?

 

Bit more fleshing out to do here and there, but you have the potential, just need to tie stuff up a little bit more.
