The plot: so the story of the rp is remarkably similar to the actual red dwarf where they try to return to equestria but on the way face challenges. most of the time the Rp will take place on Red dwarf but sometimes I will change it so you're either on another planet, alternate dimension, in a Total immersion video game (from the episodes: better than life and back to reality or gunmen of the apocalypse). The races: pony-who has just been unfrozen from a 1 million year cryogenic slumber (like Lister) A Hologram- a hologram of a dead crew member kept to maintain the ship (like Arnold Rimmer) A evolved pet- A pet of a crew member who were kept cryogenicly in the hold and has evolved into a sapient species (like cat) or finally A Android- built to serve and help the crew of Red dwarf but over time gained Artificial intelligence (like Kryten) (ship computer race reserved for eight star) The Sheet: Name: race: Occupation on the ship: (does not apply to evolved pets) Appearance: Personality: Cutie Mark: (does not apply to evolved pets/androids) Backstorywhat were you doing before cryogenic slumber) Name: Robin hoof race: pony Occupation on the ship: security Appearance: <---- avatar Personality: determined, co-operative and kind Cutie Mark: skilled guard and marksman (look below avatar) Backstory: being part of security he never really got out much and mainly talked to other guards about work and to a certain pony named lister who he had to keep turning in.
welcome. I hope you enjoyed your nap. I've prepared cookies for you 8 years ago, expecting your thawing, but i'm afraid the cat ate them. Allow me to run protocol to bring you... Company.
Having never seen Red Dwarf, would that interfere with me being able to participate? Seems like a cool concept, but I'm not familiar with the series.
Nope, you could still join up as this will use the plot of the show but it will be as if lister and others were replaced with player characters.

His eyes are completely black, due to his eye-lights having broken without his notice. He carries around a tomato with him at all times, for some reason or another. Personality: He enjoys his job and serves willingly, but is easily bored if he has nothing to do. If nobody needs help, he'll find a way to help Cutie Mark: N/A Any history I should know about this besides they were frozen for a long time?
Wow, that's a really sucky history... Should I change his job from Steward, then? I saw that was kinda reserved for the noobie bots.

I've been running the backup generators for you... you're welcome. I asked the robot to initiate the reboot protocol on the main generator, but the robot tells me that it is not qualified for that action. The good news is that we still have a few hours before the backup goes out.
The rp is up but the sign ups are still open: http://www.everypony.com/forums/showthread.php?9538-Red-Dwarf-Rp&p=362184#post362184
I should mention until we get a hardlight drive holograms can touch and hold anything and can be passed through.
You mean until we get the hardlight drive, holograms can't interact with anything but can be passed through? Edit: Do I have to wait for Right to active holograms or should I just jump in?
