Here's the general information I'll need: Name/Nickname Gender Breed (No alicorns please, Unicorns Pegasi and Earth Ponies) Special Talent/Cutie Mark Personality/Background And then, here's how the stats will work. You will get to choose your own stats. Here are the categories: Strength (Used in melee combat or when moving heavy objects, for example.) Agility (For dodging or hitting fast-moving objects, or catching, etc.) Marksmanship (kinda obvious, skill with any kind of projectiles.) Intelligence (How much your character already knows, how well your character can put two and two together.) Perception (How quickly your character learns, how observant your character is.) Willpower (Strength of will. Used when scary things go bump in the night, for example.) Lore/Magic (Your character's knowledge of magic, and if your character is a unicorn, skill in casting spells as well.) Luck (how much dumb luck your character has; used occasionally for determining things happening out of your direct control.) You have 40 points to place, you can place up to 9 points in any one category. Your stats will stay the same for the whole RP, except for items which might affect these stats. I also will give your character a unique ability based on their general info. All right, here's the summary of how the stats work. When you try to do something (say, move a boulder), I'll test a stat (in this case, strength). Depending on how difficult the task is (-2 to your strength stat for the sheer size of the boulder, for example), what items you have (some sort of lever might get you a +1), special abilities (if you had some sort of ability that gave +1 to stat checks involving earth or stone, you would get +1), and many other things such as the environmental conditions and such, you will get modifiers. Then, I will roll a D10 and if it is higher than the stat (factoring in modifiers), you fail. If it is lower than or equal to the stat, you pass. If, for example, you roll a 1, that will not only automatically pass you (as you cannot get a stat less than one), but the higher your stat was in the first place, the bigger of a bonus you'll get. For example, last time SnowM got a 1 when rolling for a fireball cast, then a 2 when rolling for marksmanship. She pretty much turned the enemy into ash. Now, my other scenario was much more combat-heavy, and also it was, shall I say, an "Alpha" version of my stats system. The players lost a few opportunities to better themselves because I failed to explain the rules thouroughly. But, some other times I just made up/changed rules on the spot as I saw fit (yes I know, bad bad me!) and then kept it that way. But after that one "playtest" shall I call it, I think we'll have a less bumpy ride, eh?

This all right? Name/Nickname: Tyro Gender: Male Breed: Kitsune Special Talent/Cutie Mark: Energy Manipulation/N/A Personality: Slightly Absent Minded and Eccentric. Appears to travel down one train of thought, catch another one going in an opposite direction but then forget what he was talking about half way through, if you get what I mean. Despite this, he's inquisitive and stubborn when given something to sort out regardless of whether it's his business or not. Background: Largely unknown. Tyro appears to have no known contemporary records written about him at all. As far as Apploosa is conserned, he turned up, wondered around and left in the middle of the night. Somepony claims that he talked about some horrible monster following him all over the place but it's best to take the word of travellers with a pinch of salt. Strength: 2 (Used in melee combat or when moving heavy objects, for example.) Agility: 9 (For dodging or hitting fast-moving objects, or catching, etc.) Marksmanship: 4 (kinda obvious, skill with any kind of projectiles.) Intelligence: 7 (How much your character already knows, how well your character can put two and two together.) Perception: 2 (How quickly your character learns, how observant your character is.) Willpower: 6 (Strength of will. Used when scary things go bump in the night, for example.) Lore/Magic: 9 (Your character's knowledge of magic, and if your character is a unicorn, skill in casting spells as well.) Luck: 1 (how much dumb luck your character has; used occasionally for determining things happening out of your direct control.) 40/40

All right, original post has been edited to contain...um, stuffs. If you have any questions, please please PLEEEEASE ask! I would be happy to answer them or, in some cases perhaps, thank you for pointing out an error on my part in the designing of this RP story/system. Thank you!!
Name: Lucky Clover Gender: Stallion Breed: Earth Special Talent: Able to find items and artifacts that others consider lucky. Cutie Mark: Green four leaf clover Personality: Lucky is a happy-go-lucky (pun intended) pony. He enjoys seeing other ponies, as well as being outdoors. It is difficult to get on his bad side, but for those that do, it can be just as difficult to get an amiable reaction from him. Lucky has a curious streak about him, which lends itself to his special talent. Background: He never got a chance to really get to know his parents, as they mysteriously vanished when he was a very young foal. The elderly mare that took him in knows what happened, and told him when he was older. According to what he has been told, the area that his parents were raising him had been viciously attacked by creatures from the Everfree. Nopony knows what they wanted, and some of those in the same area simply disappeared. Whether they got out alive or not is a mystery (his parents included), and one that the elderly mare doesn't know the answer to. She found him while traveling through the destroyed and abandoned area, and decided to take him in (thus starting his lucky streak). The mare has been teaching him about the ways of the world, as well as enrolling him in the pony public education system. The one subject that never interested him much was magic and its lore. Growing up, he has mostly just done the odd job here and there... until the elderly mare discovered his penchant for finding lucky items. Since that moment, his main career has been finding various items for other ponies that they have lost. Appearance: White coat color; midnight blue mane and tail with streaks of green through the center of each; yellow eyes. Strength: 4 Agility: 7 Marksmanship: 3 Intelligence: 5 Perception: 5 Willpower: 5 Lore/Magic: 2 Luck: 9

Strength; 3 Agility; 6 Marksmanship; 4 Intelligence; 8 Perception; 9 Willpower; 5 Lore/Magic; 2 Luck; 3
Oh, one thing about essence magic, as it is heavily reliant on Snow's emotions, well, let's just say you don't want to be in the area when she's really pissed off.
What, I didn't use all that bad of language, I didn't even know it got censored. I'll reword it though, when she's really really, really mad.
Well would you look at this? I get to join an RP for the first time in a while since my little hiatus is over. Seeing as how everyone seems to be using themselves as a character, I'll do the same. Name/Nickname- Zephyr (Full name- Zephyrus, known only by family members and close friends) Gender- Male Breed- Pegasus Special Talent/Cutie Mark- Winged Horseshoe -> Talent is having high amounts of stamina Personality/Background- Spoiler: Long possibly I'll sum this up in as few number of bullets as I can. -Grew up in Fillydelphia -Mother died during childbirth -Grew up with his dad -Dad died in a flight accident -Zephyrus blames himself -Became the local pariah -Leaves home -Wanders from town to town -Joins a thief's guild in Manehatten -Not far up the ladder in the guild, but not far down it either I've been thinking about writing a quick fic about this so I can just go BADABOOM, LINK! However, I have a horrible time expressing my thoughts through words. Maybe when I get bored. Stats- Strength: 3 Agility: 9 Marksmanship:5 Intelligence: 2 Perception: 4 Willpower: 9 Lore/Magic:1 Luck: 7 Weapon- Knives and other small blades.
