    Basic Summary

    #1: Be respectful and follow site and Roleplay rules, obviously
    #2: Be realistic and have good grammar, no one likes it when you can't read a post or somehow dodge a bullet or something along those lines
    #3: Respect what I have to say, if you fail to follow my rules and guidance, you will be ejected from the RP
    #4: Follow the story, please don't go off on your own or else you WILL fail the storyline and have to face the consequences of said failure
    #5: Have FUN! Don't let the RP become boring and uninteresting, I want you to have FUN with this first and foremost
    #6: Participation is a MUST, don't sign-up and disappear halfway through the story, that KILLS RP's.
    #7: Any suggestive behavior beyond flirty will NOT BE TOLERATED. No fading to black, no make out sessions, etc. The same applies with gore.

    (Please remember, these are considered 'Qualities of a perfect leader' and should be treated as such, kinda like how the Elements of Harmony are qualities of the perfect friendship/society. Also, I will decide your element, not you.)

    Name: Professor Quickstar
    Breed: Unicorn
    Gender: Male
    Appearance: Coat: light beige, slightly lighter than Doctor Whooves. Mane/tail: black, slightly disheveled, but not very much. Eyes: light blue, their gaze is confident, inquisitive, almost challengingly so, as though saying “Come on, what world-shattering conundrum do you have for me to ponder today?”
    Cutie Mark/Special Talent: A lit light bulb, signifying a talent for coming up with innovative and creative ways to apply spells (to prevent powermodding, he plays a game with himself where he always uses the simplest possible spell to accomplish a task, and all such spells must have their underlying principles explained. Example: instead of using a firelighting spell on a candle, he'd use a levitation spell to vibrate tiny particles of the wick together to create friction)
    Occupation: Professor at Celestia's School for Gifted Unicorns, teaches a course in Creative Spell Applications
    Background: Grew up in the coastal trading city of Baltimare, a very diverse environment due to all the strange species who crewed the ships that would come in, making him very accepting of those who are different. After graduating himself from Celestia's School, he spent some time trying various fields of magical research, but quickly grew frustrated at how close-minded the other unicorns were in how they used their magic. Spent some time doing more experimental research (such as trying to turn gemstones into storage devices for magical energy), but the dangers of such research quickly discouraged him. Eventually decided that the best way to change how unicorns used their magic would be to teach the next generation, and so appealed to the dean of the School to let him teach a course in finding creative ways to apply spells. It quickly became a favorite among students due to how creative the lessons were and how open-ended and interesting they were.
    Other relevant information
    -He is extremely observant and analytical. He sees EVERYTHING. While he is limited to things explicitly stated in posts or physical appearances in character profiles, he can do incredible things with a small amount of information.
    -At some point during his past, he acquired a mysterious item he lets no one see. It is contained in a box protected by layers upon layers of wards and protections. It is something very private to him, and I swear that I will tell Snow what it is and get permission before actually using it. Even so, I'm reluctant to leave it out altogether, as it is an integral part of my mental image of him, as is his extreme reluctance to show it to anyone or reveal its existence. It is not something embarrassing or illegal, but he has a great deal of incentive to prevent anyone knowing about it.

    Hm...Make it a little harder for him to do certain spells (after all, no unicorn is proficient in ALL spells, even Twilight), and overall he's fine (this post is BEFORE he tells me anything about the box)

    Hmmm...special talent is able to read emotions (which specially trained people can do IRL, so realistic) and is a guard? Seem to go hand in hand, now to decide who you shall be...

    He's from the Lunar Island, so I would suggest Focus.
    But whatever, choose what you shall.

    Sorry Eluuna, you can't simply just control ponies actions: Please find different talent or describe it better to reduce OP potential

    just... how do i put this...

    he can see any "possible event" in his head i guess is it basically?
    but since so much variation exists between real possibilities and "a gryphon flies in out of nowhere and eats a cupcake on the villains head" that are all technically possible that's where his "ridiculous tangents" come from.

    hope that explains it.

    So basically, he sees like all the possible ones, even the most ridiculous ones? Hm, I think I'm good with that as long as he doesn't see the right one at all the right times.
