    Once upon a time,
    There were six ponies,
    Who thought they embodied,
    The six Elements of Harmony.
    Loyalty, Honesty, Kindness,
    Generosity, Laughter, and Magic.
    They became friends.
    They went on a great adventure,
    To rid Equestria of a great foe.
    They failed.
    And now they are mine.
    Tell me, little pony,
    Do you possibly think,
    That you are strong enough,
    To defeat me?

    I am the Mistress of Dreams.
    I am the Queen of this World.
    My Elder Sister has fallen.
    And my Younger shall soon follow.

    Come, Little Pony.
    Show me.
    What you are made of.


    This RP is a continuation of “From the Edge of the Universe”, which essentially ended in a Game Over for the previous party (sorry guys). The story thus far is that Constella, the forgotten middle sister of Celestia and Luna, has invaded Equestria and kidnapped the Mane 6 and defeated Celestia in battle.

    Luna sent out a party of six ponies to attempt to give the Elements of Harmony to the Mane 6 so they could defeat Constella, but no one has seen or heard anything from them since they went into Constella’s “kingdom” three weeks ago. In desperation, Luna has sent out the call to anypony who is brave enough to: 1)Recover the lost Elements of Harmony, 2)Find the previous adventuring ponies, 3)Find the Mane 6 and rescue them, 4)Find Celestia and rescue her, and 5)Defeat Constella.

    The game system is driven by a d20, which I will roll and post the results for certain character actions.

    Signups will be the same:
    So, who thinks they have what it takes?

    Amendment: Everypony is allowed to carry up to four items to start, along with something to keep them in (box, saddlebags, cloak, etc.).

    Note: I’m still going to limit the party to 6 total, unless there is overwhelming interest. If that happens, the parties will be split into groups of no less than 3 and no more than 6.

    Accepted Characters/Players:
    (Returning players will be asked to make new characters, please.)
    Pickpear, played by Eight Star
    Steel Heart, played by Cobrabrony
    Night Time, played by Dark Shine
    Intrude Cranium, played by Eluuna
    Rashall Firemane, played by Rashall
    Mary Sue, played by Tyro the Fox
    Little Sunshine, played by Jhera

    Thank you, Eight Star.


    @ Cobrabrony:

    I'll let him in if you promise to follow the general RP rules, which can be found here, specifically the rules regarding Character Balance. I like you, and I honestly liked roleplaying with you in The Royals RP. I don't want to fight with you in this one.

    Oh yes, I'm sure it will be.

    Oh, your Create gets to be combined. I'd say Create Force, that would probably be a good bubble shield. Right Quill?

    Yes. I think Legion and I discussed it in the previous RP and we decided that Create Force would be a good Magical Shield.

    @ Dark Shine:
    Unfortunately, you only get one spell combination since your Mind is 3.

    Create Magic is a good light spell. (Create Magic has other uses as well, namely enhancing other magic.)
    Animate Earth is your levitation spell.
    Animate and Diminish Body for your Haste/Slow spells.
    Diminish Earth would be your clock-slowing spell, since the way you worded it, it only slows down the clock.

    @ Eight Star - Change has more to do with changing the physical form of something. Create, Animate, and Diminish are your status-chaning spells.

    Back to Dark Shine: I've been here, just not doing any roleplaying. Feeling more inspired lately.

    Yes, it seems me and Quill can feed off of one another's inspiration. Once I was out of my depression and back to writing, he got inspired, which inspired me, which inspired him, which made me come back.
    Or something like that. ::S:

    Either that or it had something to do with magical anime school girls.

    Yeah, probably the magical anime schoolgirls.

    Also, I'll add you to the list, Darkshine! :grin:

    I like that we have a couple of characters who know/are related to the previous characters. The quest hook is practically writing itself.

    - - Auto Merge - -

    Added a note to the intro sheet. Everypony may carry up to four items and something to keep them in (box, saddlebags, cloak).

    You're all adventurers after all, not some ponies that Luna happened to pick up off the streets of Ponyville during the Summer Sun Celebration. :zebra:
