Welcome, I got this idea from rewatching a recent CMC episode, anyways, here you basically rp the journey your oc took to gain his/her cutie mark. Remember to make sure not to resolve it quickly, and you can join with others in this, just remember, your oc is just a filly, so no teaming up of ponies who are in to seperate cities, unless your family is on vacation. So enjoy! Character sheet: Name: gender/race: Family: Location: Here's mine: Name: Snow Mark gender/race: Female/unicorn Family: Father, Mother (please name siblings though) Location: Canterlot
This seems like a pretty neat idea Name:Rex gender/race:Male Pegusas Family:mother, father, sister named Firefly Location:cloudsdale
(oh okay cool) okay what is my special talent time to stop fooling around... but would I find it here in Cloudsdale because im a pegusas or maybe I should visit ponyville *can't decide what to do*
Name: Jhera Flowers gender/race: Earth Pony (m) Family: Lives with little sister Location: Fillydelphia Sounds like fun! Only problem is that my char got his in Fillydelphia, so if anyone wants to go there or I'll be sad and lonely
This does sounds pretty fun. It'll be nice to nail down exactly how my OC got his Cutie Mark. Name: Quilliam Bartholomew "Quill" Inkwell III gender/race: Male Unicorn Family: Father - Quilliam Bartholomew Inkwell II, Mother - Garnet Whirl Is Currently living with his Aunt (that's pronounced, "AHnt"), Twenty-Four Carat (Unicorn, F) and his cousins, Pish Posh (Unicorn, F) and Bolly Posh (Unicorn, M) Location: Canterlot Opening post will come a little later.
Maybe I'll join as well. I have some roleplays with my OC as Shining Shield and some as Silver Shield, but I like Silver Shield better, so I'll go with that name. Also, I already gave a general overview of his life in the "Capture the Spy" RP, but it'll be fun to think up more specifics... Name: Silver Shield Gender: Male Race: Unicorn Family: Mother (Silk Stocking), Father (Old Money) (Shield is an old family name, so it was given to him instead of Money or Stocking. Silver...well, yeah. It's money-related.) Location: Canterlot
Name: Dark Shine Gender/Race: Pegasus (S) Family: Lives with Mother (Golden hoof), Father (Flower Greens), Sisters (FoxGlove, Butter Cup, Pine Dancer) and Brother (Cool Shades) Location: Canterlot (Glad not only one )
Name: Firebreeze Wind Gender/species: Male Pegasus Family: Mom, Dad, Ember (Twin sister) Location: Ponyville
Dark Shine looked out the Window of his families house. Today was gonna be the day. 'Royal cadets, Everypony welcome!'. His father was preparing him some snacks for the journey as the course itself was in the Palace gardens while his mother, Golden Hoof was making sure everything was Ok. His older Brother Cool Shades was ignoring him completely, meanwhile his sisters were wishing him a good bye till he returned. "Good bye!" He waved to his family, tears welling up in the back of his eyes. This was the start of something big, even if he knew not...
It was a normal morning for a young Firebreeze. He ate some breakfast with his family, then went outside with his father for more flying lessons. "Once I teach you how to fly, you'll be the best there's ever been!" His father always said. His mother and Sister, being earth ponies, would stay on the ground and tend the family's sandwich shop.
"Stop it, Bolly! Give Quill his feather back!", Pish Posh shouted. "It's not a feather, it's a quill! I need it to write!" Quilliam retorted. "If he can get it, Sis, he can have it!" Bolly Posh stood on his hind legs, leaning his forelegs on Quill's head, holding him down. Quill's quill magically hung in the air not too far above the quarrelling colts, surrounded by a light green aura, Bolly Posh's magic color. "Stop it!" Pish Posh's horn lit with pink magic as she attempted to wrest the quill from her older brother's magical grasp. Quill bucked valiantly in an attempt to get the larger colt off of his back. On the third buck, Quill managed to roll out of Bolly's grip and away from him. Quickly, his horn lit with light orange energy as he joined his cousin in attempting to retrieve his quill. Haveta be careful. I don't want it to... But it was too late. The strain of being pulled in three different directions caused the feather to rip apart. The three youngsters fell onto their rumps as their spells broke simultaneously. Quilliam's lip quivered as the pieces settled onto the ground in front of him. Pish Posh slid closer to her cousin. "You okay, Quill?" Bolly's reaction was slightly different. "Feh. It's just a stupid feather. It's not like I broke one of your toys..." At those words, Quill eyes met Bolly's. "It's...a...QUILL!" Before Pish could do anything, the tan unicorn charged at his elder cousin and tacked him to the ground. he would likely have trampled him right then and there had it not been for his Aunt's intervention. "Quilliam! Bolly Posh! Cease this rough-housing immediately!" Both colts were suddenly surrounded by a gold glow as Twenty-Four Carat levitated and separated them. Quill's hooves continued to flail as he hung in the air. Bolly simply hung limply in the air, as he knew from experience that it was futile to resist his mother's magic. Twenty-Four Carat turned to Quill. "I do not know how you conduct yourself at home, young stallion, but while you are under my supervision, you will refrain from lashing out in such a barbaric manner!" before Bolly Posh could get a good snicker in, his mother then turned to him, "An you! Stop tormenting your cousin. Say you're Sorry!" *mumble mumble* Twenty-Four Carat's eyes narrowed at her son. "I said, I'm sorry, okay?" Bolly replied indignantly. Seemingly satisfied, Quill's Aunt let the two colts fall to the ground. "Now try to conduct yourselves like civilized ponies." With that command, Twenty-Four resumed whatever it was she was doing before breaking up the fight. Pish Posh looked back and forth between Quill and Bolly. "Um...wanna go do something? You know...together? Like a team?" Bolly Posh blew a rogue strand of his mane. "Nah. I'm gonna go do something fun. Later!" He trotted off into town. Pish turned to her cousin. "Do you wanna do something? Please don't be mad..." Quill hung his head. "No...I think I'll just take a walk..." "Oh..." Pish Posh frowned as she watched Quill wander away, dragging his hooves.
Snow walked around at the big halls of her family's mansion, her friends having left. She sighed, it seemed almost everyday that another one of them got their cutie mark, while she still couldn't think of what could be her special talent. She thought a little while, and came up with an idea, why not get with her friends that still didn't have cutie marks and try whatever to get them! She smiled at her idea and quietly sneaked out of the house, which wasn't that hard as the entry was white marble that she could easily blend into, and found herself on the streets of Canterlot.
The carriage arrived to pick Dark up. there were other Ponies on there, all looked menacing. They are all different to dark. Some were grey but they were Unicorns. Some were Pegasi but they were white. Dark Shine felt alone. He looked to the sky and to the clouds. 'Some day, I'll fly up to you' He thought. It was tempting to start up a conversation but he felt it would be awkward...
Jhera walked into his apartment with conviction. "Mother, I'm home!" He yelled as loud as he could. She darted into the hallway and nearly barreled him over. "SHHHHH!" she hissed at him. "There's a new foal in the house! You can't yell like that any more!" Three day old Fernleaf crawled, or more like rolled, into the room. She picked up her daughter and glanced towards Jhera. "I made you some food in the kitchen if you get hungry." She said, and walked out of the room with Fernleaf. The foal looked at Jhera as they left, and he sneered at her. What made that piece of fat so special?! His mom just came home one day with the little bugger, didn't even say how she got it! It's attracting so much attention from him, and he couldn't stand it any more! Exasperated, he threw his stuff down and walked back outside. The first place he headed to was his best friend's house. He simply walked in and found the pegasus Talon sitting idly, just messing with his plane model. Ever since he had gotten his cutie mark (a wrench wedged in a piece of metal) which represented his knack for metal objects, he never put the things down anymore! "Yo, Talon!" Jhera called. Without looking up, Talon replied "Busy, can't talk now, I almost have this thing finished!" Jhera pouted. He wouldn't give up that easily. "Whacha making?" He asked. Talon replied with a loud "SHHHH!" That was the second time somepony had done that to him in the last 10 minutes. Consumed by rage, Jhera stormed out and ran to his flower patch. At least his secret place nopony knew about would give him comfort! When at last he arrived, he was startled by a filly in the patch, messing with some flowers. "AHH!" he yelled. "YOU'LL DESTROY THEM! NO! OUT! GET OUT GET OUT GET OUT!" Startled, the filly ran away. He viewed a cutie mark that resembled a red coin as she fled. He sighed and surveyed the damages. "I wonder when I'll get MY cutie mark..." he wondered. He fell asleep in the patch and dreamed of cutie marks and talents. (I like your story so far, Quill! Way to bring out the details, it was fun to read.)
Snow walked through the streets, depressed. Not a single one of her friends were allowed to join her, sometimes it sucked to be one of the few 'outsider' families in Canterlot (Snow's family is originally from Fort Foalth, which you could call Equestria's version of Fort Worth, Texas). She looked around and noticed the royal cadets getting on the carriage to ride to the Royal Academy. She shoved her way through the crowd far enough to get a good look, Snow was too young to join even Celestia's magic school, let alone something like the Royal Academy. She watched eagerly as they got onto the carriage.
It had been a long day of flight practice, and Fire was starting to be able to fly higher and higher. "I'm proud of you, son." His father said with a smile, "now run off and go have some fun!" Firebreeze decided to play with his best friend, Rex. Rex already had his cutie mark. It was a bag of money, symbolizing his knack for making cash. In fact, Fire had nicknamed Rex 'Cashie Hooves'. After a long talk, the two decided to reopen their old lemonade stand, rather than play tag, where Fire had a huge advantage, being a Pegasus while Rex was an Earth pony.
Quill wandered the streets of Canterlot, grumbling to himself. It's not just a feather. It's a writing implement. I wish I was with mom and dad at The School. They'd understand... Stupid Bolly Posh. He probably can't even write, the big, dumb- His thoughts were suddenly interrupted by the presence of a crowd. They all seemed to be watching something. He managed to wiggle his way to the front where he saw several ponies getting into a carriage bound for the Royal Academy. His eyes widened at the majesty of it all. Wow... I'll bet nopony messes with them...
Jhera sulked as he wandered back. The filly had eaten 3 delphiniums and trampled 4 others. How did she get in there anyways? He kicked a rock down the side of the street. It was usually bustling with workers, but was deserted today. He arrived home and opened the door, to find it deserted too. "Huh?" He wondered aloud. He walked through the house, but found no traces of his mother. Fernleaf was sitting on the floor, sucking on a piece of plastic. He picked her up and she squeaked. He couldn't help but think she was a little cute. His mom never let the foal out of he sights. Where in Equestria had she gone? With Fernleaf on his back, he walked back out to search for his mother.
Snow watched the cadets when she suddenly noticed another foal shove its way to the front, just a few yards done from her, she leaned out to get a better look, and realized he looked vaguely familar, like somepony who had been at one of her family's 'get-togathers' with the other richer citizens of Canterlot. She contiuned to stare as she tryed to figure out who this pony was and why he looked so familar.
