    (The story idea is based on a back-story for possibly my favourite character that I’m developing in my novel so this would be a Pony version of my characters backstory. Plus I haven’t started one of these for a while)

    Story: Just over three hundred years ago, there was a nation named Ellion (Actually a continent from my novel). At its apex, the nation was able of technological wonders and magical arts so powerful and great that it put the other nations to shame. Its inhabitants were known as Ryborians, a race that was born with much stronger magic power than any of the other races. Not only could they live up to Four thousand years old, but they were extremely powerful in the magic arts and swordsmanship and the nation remained and outlasted almost everything the world could throw at it, be it civilisation or nature itself. However Ryborians do not reproduce as quickly as any other race, normally only having two or three children though many do have more and there are longer intervals between each child born to Elves. Because of this, their numbers are always low and avoid wars if possible.

    The Ryborians came extremely close to creating something called the Seventhium, a genetic attribute that will reduce the amount of time between each child. The other races encouraged this while Ponydom hated the idea, as they thought that once they were ‘Repaired’ the Ryborians will attack Equestria and occupy it.

    Out of fear, Equestria invaded Ellion and triggered the beginning of what would become known as ‘The Black War’. Even through the Ryborians had far superior training and equipment, Equestria gained the advantage with numbers and almost drove them to extinction. The war ended with the wars instigator, Prince Galaxy being assassinated alongside the rest of the Royal family, servants and the entire royal guard by a lone Ryborian assassin. The soldiers gathered out of the Canterlot palace and avoided the assassin as if recognizing his rite of passage...or out of fear. The only known survivor was Princess Celestia and several of her relatives who were away when the attack happened.

    Since the end of the war, the Ryborians numbers were only several hundred instead of its previous fifty thousand. One of these Ryborians started a successful tavern and has remained undisturbed since the end of the war. When you one day come to visit the tavern however, you discover that he is not all that’s cracked up to be.

    (More details will be posted soon. Such as appearance, all that needs to be known now is that they don't look much different to Ponydom, possibly almost identical)

    That's about eight hours. ..
    That means i'd be sleeping between 8am and 3pm for you.
    And you'd be sleeping (somewhat) between my 4pm and midnight.


    It could work:
    Your roleplaying times: 3pm -> midnight.
    My roleplaying times: 7am -> 4pm.

    Just did some simple math, because math is fun.
    (But of course, i wont rp if many people is interested, and lives in better timezones than me)

    Yes... timezones are always a problem. Stupid timezones for being so timely :p

    We could do it, put due to timezones it would only be a post per day then wait until one of us is awake to post again. So that complicates things

    If more people are interested, i might as well make this a Group RP. But im going to wait a while to see what happens first

    Also as i have mentioned before, It would only work with a post a day. It's currently 6:44amthere while it's 4:44pm here, so im at least 10 and a half hours ahead of you.
