    Seeing how there's an utter lack of pony RPs, I can't be serious in an RP, and an abundance of dark RPs with Nazis, war, space, maybe one with robots being in a jail?I don't know but, I feel there's a need for something more light-hearted yet can still allow action and violence and all that fun you people like. So, I feel like giving the idea of the SlapStick Theater a try. Totally not inspired by Battleblock Theater...

    ANYWHO, a group of ponies are on a magical cruise Sir Richington Stocks, Esq, MD till disaster strikes, causing are group be stranded on a spooky island! Sir Richington manages to get a way to escape because he is really, really, really rich but, he is allowing one other pony to escape with him. So everypony must run, jump, hoof, fly, magic, eat, drink, verb, do whatever it takes to get through the island and it's danger alone or together and find Sir Richington and escape on... Whatever he's devised for escape.

    Hm, this sounds like a weird Rp (reminds me of Scooby-Doo) but it sounds iight. Anyways. if this is a "spooky" island, then I would suggest probably adding (At and this is just stuff I'm throwing in) the following:
    1. Gore
    2. major violence
    3. monsters (I'm not talking pt-13 monsters, I'm talking about the real deal beasts.)
    4. Destruction

    I feel you don't quite grasp the theme of "Slapstick". It's supposed to be pretty cartoony and non-serious. But hey, destruction is guaranteed.

    So, by "slapstick," do you mean light physical comedy like The Three Stooges, or are you planning on going Wile E. Coyote with this?

    Probably leaning more towards Looney Toons on this. With maybe allowing a bit of meta too.

    If I end up joining in then I'll probably do things in an "anime" style.
