[FwM] Recruitment/OOC/Character Thread

[Orzel]

So I'm considering making a pony who happens to be a Follower of Celestia. Will probably be mistaken for the Rebels of Celestia as per usual. Probably not liked even though he's not evil, though he is rough around the edges.

They would have been from a fallen ex-Noble house, whose family were devout followers of Celestia. His family and the family servants were executed by The Purists of Luna, but he was able to escape death with the help of his servant boy/girl (haven't decided) who he travels with today constantly trying to evade death.

Marked for death by The Purists, they have placed a bounty on his head for those willing to take it up, dead or alive, more for dead.

Comments, thoughts? Hooks to connect him to someone's pony in some way?

Well both Flowier and Grills are nobles so they would know the story already. Flowier is slightly Celestia bias so she would help said pony.

Sounds like a nice concept, go for it!

The Purists of Luna haven't even been mentioned in the RP itself yet, so I definitely approve of this.

Profile, will update when I'm not feeling tired.

Spoiler

Show

Name: Ember Sol
Title: Ex-Noble of the fallen Noble House of Sol, followers of Celestia.
Race: Pegasi
Appearance:

Spoiler

Show

Age: 17

Skills: Sword Play (Fencing, though not as good as the other swordponies here), Survival (sorta forced on him).

Biography: Ember was born into a life of privilege and wealth, but it was all taken away from him when his family was marked for death by the Purists of Luna. He and his servant were the sole survivors of the slaughter that would make headline news. Stripped from his life and thrown into exile and hiding, the ex-noble was forced to survive on luck and wit alone.

Personality: He is stubborn, a tad arrogant, insecure, hides it behind his flashes of anger. Angry, confused, bitter about his situation. Hot-headed. A male tsundere

Relationships: His family was an acquaintance to the powerful Flamestrong Nobel House. Aubade, his filly servant, older than him by two years and fellow exile.

Cutie Mark: His family crest, which is of a sword with a golden radiance behind it on a shield.

Notes: House of Sol, was a very low ranking noble family. They were not very powerful and were usually referred to as the dregs of the Noble Houses. Essentially they were the Squad Four in Bleach, Hufflepuff House, the Lovelace Family from Black Lagoon, given very little respect despite their contributions that are just overlooked/overshadowed by the more powerful Houses. One of the very few Pegasi Noble Families.

They were killed off by The Purists of Luna for having had been known for being open Followers of Celestia and they were an easier target, and also because the Purists of Luna wanted to send out a message to other Celestia followers.

[MCerberus]

Fancy organizations! now that we have the Purists and Eclipse up to stuff, it can only get more ponysane.

Class is slow, but still may not get the time to do a big update before 10 local.

So, here's what I picture. His reason for coming to this town is to find Flowier, in hopes she could help him...with...whatever. Figuring that part out xP

Yeah... Icy would hate/attempt to murder him on sight. Just a heads up.

She has serious issues with anypony openly following Celestia.

I knows, I did take into account those who would hate him and want him dead in this town when I made him.

This should be Fun.

BTW Fox is in the next day or not?

[Mystic Muse]

Speaking of Celestia, a couple things about her.

1. We need somepony to play her at some point.
2. Soft and her would have to have a kind of extended discussion before Soft even considered helping Celestia. What Celestia wants Soft to do* is the kind of thing that will make 95% of the town hate her, make the other 5% think she's crazy, and make anypony with any sort of authority with the state want to bring her in for High treason.




*From the impression I got anyway

Um, not quite, its like 1:20 am in his timeline, so technically he is in the next day.

Also, just so we remember, Celestia's not evil, just crazy, just in case we forgot xD

Um, what did Celestia want Soft to do again?

[Mystic Muse]

Get her free from her sun prison after giving her a couple thousand doses of confidence boost.

[Grif]

Get her free from her sun prison after giving her a couple thousand doses of confidence boost.

Yeah, that'll be high treason in practically everypony's eyes.

[Mystic Muse]

Yeah. Hence why Soft would be highly hesitant to do this, and would go about choosing who she wanted with her on this quest very carefully. To most ponies she'd be considered a traitor, and I imagine that at least a few would accuse her of attempting Regicide.

[Orzel]

The hit to the nations stability would anger most of my ponies.
Except Hover... she doesn't give a (censored).

I was thinking about other nations bordering Equestria. Like the Moose in the north (Near where Icy is from). The Camels and Zebras (currently at war) could be east.

Moose- Goats

Equestria- Camels and Zebra- Whatever- Equestria

Llamas-Sheep

No griffons? I kinda like the way some fanfics potray ponies outside Equestria. Glidesdale from 'Dangerous Business' sounds very plausible to me. (Think the Rohirrim from LotR.)

[Orzel]

My map isn't complete.


My other idea is Equestria being on the Hooved creature continent, Ungulata.
Griffons would be from a continent across the Sea, Avia. With the Rocs, Gargoyles, and Sphinxes.

[Grif]

HalfTangible, you have an excellent sense of timing. Really. So, Icy vs Rose now?

[HalfTangible]

As soon as Icy mentions Lone Star's her friend, Rose will attempt to kill her. My psycho exes go the extra mile.

[HalfTangible]

Also, after this next post, Esmeralda would probably notice that Rose had shifted her position a bit, and her eyes narrowed just a tad. She might attack depending on Icy's next answer.

[Orzel]

Now is the time when a member of the Cirrus crew would knock on Hover's door and be mistaken for Blazing Hooves.

[Crisis21]

I think I might be able to pull off crazy Celestia in a way that Soft would be willing to help her.


Edit: @Grif - If Icy tries to murder somepony for being a Celestia follower, the Captain will take issue with it.

She is perfectly aware of it. She also doesn't care. But anyway, she got problems of her own, so that might not come to pass.

So-Soft would kill everyone named Reginald!?Yes, I know what Regicide really is.

[HalfTangible]

That is a horrible pun and you should feel ashamed for writing it.

Uh, did Rose just gore Icy with her horn? Need to clear that up before I respond.

[HalfTangible]

Yes!

...

I godmodded again, didn't i... crap

[Grif]

Yes!

Technically no, but that will be painful. Expect some sort of insane response from Icy. She wasn't called the Ice Queen of the North for nothing.

I'm expecting something like being frozen in a block of ice. Originally Rose was going to move upstairs, but i couldn't remember if Icy HAD an upstairs...
