The Story~ It has been 5 years since Discord has been defeated. Equestria has become a peaceful place.... Unfortunately, after one fateful day, it was not. One day, something happened. Ponies started dissapearing, and soon, the mane six were gone as well... the reason soon came apparent, when the princesses mysteriously vanished. An evil pony named Bandit came to take the throne, with his brutal pony gang, and the ponies had no choice but to obey his rules. His rules were strict though, and many families were split apart, fillies were forced into work, and almost everypony became starving and in great need of water, shelter and basic needs. And nobody could complain, otherwise they would be sentenced to death. They need a hero.... fortunately, there is hope. Ponies have started to regain hope. Some are even having dreams, even visions, of the mane six, and the princesses, which seem to be real. Ponies are starting to believe they are not at all dead-that they are living somewhere, somehow, and it is time for them to be freed, and the land to become free of Bandit's evil reign. But there is still speculation--how could a pony gang like Bandit's kidnap the mane six and the princesses, or maybe a more powerful evil is at work.... Rules: -Follow all forum rules-that means no powerplaying, clopping, etc. -No invincibility at all. -You may have up to three pony charactors, for those who want to play more than one pony. -You can be a blank flank or a cutie mark bearing pony. -Your start-off area is in the Slave Pens or the Library. You may pick which. >If you want to be evil you can start in the same areas except the library, which is instead the castle. -Remember each of the species' aspects: >Earth Ponies are strongly connected to nature >Pegasus Ponies have the ability to fly swiftly and further than alicorns. >Unicorns can use magic, which is stranger than an alicorn's and learn more numerous spells. >Alicorns have a bit of all three, except all of them are moderately weaker than the other three. That as attatched to nature as earth ponies, can not fly as fast as pegasus ponies or farther than most pegasus ponies, and can not use as many spells as a unicorn and an alicorn's spell is not as powerful. -Have fun! Form: Name: Gender: (Mare or Stallion) Age: (Filly, Teen or Adult) Cutie Mark: (Leave Blank if none) Appearance: Species of Pony: (Earth, Pegasus, Unicorn, or alicorn) Personality: History: Talents/Powers: (Up to two) My Form- Name: Silver Bells Gender: Mare Age: Teen Cutie Mark: Two Silver Bells tied by a blue and violet ribbon Appearance: Species of Pony: Alicorn Personality: She is timid but kind and socially awkward History:Silver Bells is unlike any other pony. She has draconic wings, and because of such, she was never accepted into any community. After Bandit took the throne though, she was forced to work by orders of Bandit. She has had dreams and visions of the mane six and the princesses. Talents/Powers: Silver Bells can breathe fire and can sing a beautiful melody, making an opponent fall asleep.
Name:Starfall Gender:Stallion Age: Teen (Bordering on adulthood) Cutie Mark: A blurred yellow streak touching a white crescent moon, often mistaken for part of his coat's colouring Appearance: My avatar Species of Pony: Earth Pony History:An earth pony who has long had dreams of being an aspiring writer, despite the difficulties of writing without magic. Determined to the point of stubborness, Starfall records the strange dreams he occasionally has of the mane six, Celestia, and Luna, painstakingly writing out them in as much detail as he can muster. Starfall spends his days wandering the library, attempting to find a clue to the whereabouts of those that disappeared, living in constant fear of Bandit and his gang finding out one day about those that had taken up residence there. Talents/Powersue to his time spent writing using his mouth (hooves aren't exactly very useful for it) Starfall is proficient in using a large variety of tools. Has also developed a natural knack with words, and can therefore be rather convincing when required.
Name: Doodls Gender: Stallion Age: Adult Cutie Mark: Infinite Symbol Appearance: the image to the left Species of Pony: Alicorn Personality: Always happy, enjoys every single day as if it was an adventure. Has a subconsciously responsible attitude. History: He wasn't there when Bandit took over, so he started to fight the Bandit loyalists. Some guards managed to capture him and took him to the Slave Pens. Hes been there for 3 months now. Still managing to survive, his happy attitude has been replaced with his love for adventure so hes usually seen walking around his cell looking at the ground, finding a way to escape. Talents/Powers: 1.-Can draw anything in thin air and able to manipulate the drawing. 2.-Strong Telekinetic powers
Just wondering, are we waiting to get a certain number of ponies before we start? and is there a limit to the amount of ponies allowed to be in this?
Yeah I'll add a villain side! If you are a villain you start in the same areas exept instead of the library you start in the Canterlot Castle. Nah, we can start now.
May I join at this Juncture? If so; Name: Steamer Physik Gender: Stallion Age: Adult Cutie Mark: Three Balloons and a cogwheel Appearance: See Avatar Species of Pony: Earth Personality: Split personality: 1; the scientist (quiet, methodical, and inquisitive). 2; the manic (friendly, hyperactive, and easily distracted). 3; the judge (fair, stand-offish, and occasionally violent) History: In his early years, Steamer was separated from his family whilst on a journey through the everfree forest, and learned to forage food for himself, and fashion tools from the surroundings, the loneliness of his early years caused him to create friends in his head, who slowly became a part of him. He rarely talks about his early years now, having been re-introduced to pony society. Since Bandit's rise, Steamer has spent most of his days in the library, quietly researching a way to locate those who have gone missing, and bring down Bandit. Talents/Powers: Immense strength (having had to fight off manticores and the like throughout childhood, Steamer became rather tough.) Stone Gaze (A trick he learnt from carefully studying the hunting habits of the Cockatrice, Steamer can turn living creatures to stone, including the ability to temporarily turn himself to stone for self-defense.)
Suits me, the idea I was going for is that he can turn things to stone, but it's difficult, and it isn't permanent, because it's not something he can do naturally.
Name: Clef Gender:Stallion Age:Teen (Verge of becoming a Adult) Cuttie Mark: A Violin Clef Appearance: See to the left Species: Earth Personality: Very shy and when you know him better he can be a really talkative guy History: He lived in a quiet village (Literally!). The village people could not speak unless necessary and could not have music or loud objects till 18 he lived without talking very much when he left the village he stumbled upon a music store he was intrigued by the musical instruments so he bought the violin and played he figured out he was a natural at it and he finally after 18 years his cuttie mark finally appeared. When the Bandits took over he figured out that his village was destroyed he was heart broken. He now despises the Bandits and wants to rid then from this world. Talents/Powers: 1: He can play the violin so well his music can put everyone to sleep to a 10 meter radius the bad part is it puts him asleep too. 2: He can make the Ground around him turn into mud in a 5 meter radius.
You can start any time you want. I'll make my first post here. Silver Bells awoke from her slumber in the slave pens. It was a tough life, and due to all the visions, other ponies think she is crazy. Her bizaar look also added to how much people tried to avoid her. She sighed and then looked around. The tough and burly guards which worked for Bandit stood guard. She whimpered. She did not like the guards at all. She thought for a moment.
He woke up from the slave pens he stood up kinda wobbly. He looks around and see's everyone is already up "Ugh why didn't anyone wake me up," he thought. He stood up straight and had noticed the weird girl when he first woke up. He had thought of making friends with her but everyone usually avoids her. He had always thought what was wrong with her rather than the wings and visions. He had walked up but then backed away "come on you have to make ONE friend in this whole entire world". He walked up again wobbly and nervous he moved inch by inch closer to her and the others noticed looking in disgusted that he was going to talk to her. He looked like a train wreak being nervous and his mane and tail being a messed up. He tapped her on the shoulder "excuse me," he said and a very quiet voice. (Im new at this so if i make any mistakes please tell me)
Name: Facade Gender: Stallion Age: Teen Cutie Mark: The two Mask of Theater. Appearance: (Avatar) Species of Pony: Pegasus Personality: With his knowledge and his acting/lying skills he has become extremely arrogant. He believes he is always right and when proven wrong he becomes shy and bashful. He recovers and becomes his usual self soon however. He can be flirty and when not lying/acting/flirting he generally is smirking and has a sarcastic tone in his words even if he doesn't always mean for it to be in his words. History: Raised in a family of librarians he was forced to read through much of his childhood. Although he had a knack for retaining knowledge and being able to bring it up whenever it suited him he never truly enjoyed books. He went through much his childhood as a blank flank as his parents kept hoping he would get into it one day. However one day during school the teacher told everyone to set up a mini play and show it off tomorrow. The next day he blew everyone away. By the end of his 20 minute play everypony was in tears and some pony took roses from the school garden and threw it at him. This was the day he got his cutie mark. However when the Bandit lord took over he was furious for as the fear spread people became frightened and less and less ponies came to his showings. A few kicks and curses later he found himself in the Slave Pits. Talents/Powers: Acting: Using the skills he is famous for he can persuade and lie out of almost any situation. However...If he says a lie to many times his own arrogance and voice begins to affect him and he starts to think what he says is true. Mimic: Being a master of the Theater requires you to have more then one voice. Hearing a voice or sound he has the ability to mimic it. (I hope this isn't to late!)
Doodleman woke up on a cell, it was his cell as it seemed that their were lots of scratches, burnt marks, openings on the wall and huge metallic bars on the floor. He got up and, obligatory every time he wakes up from sleep, twisted his head to the right till a crack sounded. He then sighted with satisfaction and he began to walk around his cell. Bandit´s guards left him on a lone cell for he tried like 12 times to escape, he already stopped escaping as he believed that 13 was his lucky number and the 13th attempt was his ticket out of here. He then drew a faucet and opened it to reveal fresh water and drank it. Then he closed it and drew a small red ball and began to bounce it on a wall. He went like that for a while while singing "13 FLIES ON A DEAD MANS SEASACK! 14 HOLES ON A SEAGULLS KAYAK! 15 SPOTS ON THE MASK OF RORSCHACH! EERLAY IN THE MORNIN! AAAANND I DON'T KNOW WHAT ELSE!" (hope im going alright)
Silver Bells looked at the pony talking to her. She was surprised - little to nopony talked to her. She said quietly, not to draw the guards' attention, "Oh, hi, what's your name?" She could not help not to pay attention to the singing, but she tried to ignore it. -- (On another note, you're accepted. It's never too late right now. You're both doing alright.)
His face brightened with joy "someone has finally talked to me,". He was so happy something unlocked in him that made the ground turn into mud making the guards slip. His face filled with joy and happiness soon turned into sadness he waited to be whipped or taken to the dungeon but when he opened his eyes. The guards were knocked out because they have fell into the mining equipment. He turns to the girl and says "my name is Clef." he said in a wobbly voice
