Re: [FWM] OOC 3: Eccentric Cheerilee
Purity, Zaros is waiting on Jewel's answer regarding Taylor and Daniel before Stellar takes Arvadraa/Horne to see Blades.
And that's how to use way too many names in a sentence.
Also, as a follow-up to this (be warned, this is somewhat wordy):
Taylor:
SpoilerTaylor is essentially the ponified version of my original original character. This was way back before my experiences with FiM (or anything, really), but I already had an interest in world-building and writing, so I tried my hand at a personal self-insert thingamabob and this is where it went.
Taylor's personality is basically what happens to mine if you heap on confidence, superpowers, and +5 Oil of Charm (results may vary). Originally he was going to be a generic monster-of-the-week-slayer guy, but to my surprise his personality evolved significantly over time. Of course, I had to devise actual plot points and a purpose, but no one gets boosts by just standing around.
He had the occasional friend and constant powerful mentor figure to bounce off of, but I got bored quickly with not having a large inner circle with which to further develop him, so I took a gamble that could either turn him into something totally different or give him better characterization; I gave him a team. In actuality, both happened, but not in the ways I expected. In hindsight, the way I went about it had a lot to do with it. Having a sidekick (who has repeatedly taken her red shirt and shoved it down some evil's throat) even more snarky than he was gave me opportunities to both hone my wit (I can't even begin to tell you how many conversations ended up as jibefests) and give him something to works towards. With a companion and the start of something greater, I felt like I could deliberately mold him past the generic and into the unique.
Even at the beginning I had a vague idea of his mission; ridiculously complex explanations aside, he was basically Dr. Who, sans-TARDIS, who goes across space rather than time. As his team got bigger though, I felt more comfortable giving him greater threats (with the everlooming plans of his main nemesis, who just would not die). This was both a blessing and a curse, because I'm an inexplicable fan of 'kill 'em all' when numbers run too high, and Big Bads gave me those opportunities. He's been actually killed more than once, and if I hadn't made that call to give him a team, well...there'd be a lot more dues ex machina's around.
His actual personality is sketchy on the law/chaos axis. He's very VERY firmly on the 'good' end of the scale, but he swaps alarmingly often between 'these are the rules, we have to obey them...but so do they' and 'the rules can take a hike, my moral code overrules'. On an average day, I'd set him at Neutral Good, for lack of a better description. Unless he's angry/you've just killed one of his loved ones. Then he slides straight into Chaotic Evil and keeps running. He's got a history of doing absolutely horrible things to his enemies, though he keeps that sort of stuff reserved for those who go after him deliberately and through others. And of those, only those who really really deserve 'And I Must Scream' actually get it.
His team has gone through a mind-numbing amount of people and incarnations over the years, and all of my current characters (besides Arvadraa and Horne) have belonged to it at some point. Their timespans, origins and such will be described on their respective pages if I ever get there. Though I will note that the current assemblage has never been together at this time (yes, they've been to Equestria before) or as these exact people.
Anyways, thanks for reading my long-winded reminisce on the history of Mr. Sunshine.D&D is the only game I can think of (with the possible exception of Calvinball) where the only way to lose is by playing to win.

Re: [FWM] OOC 3: Eccentric Cheerilee
I was actually waiting for Luka, but I guess I could progress the scene myself.
That's quite a lot of background, especially compared to my characters. I'm too tired to give other comments right now, though.Last edited by PurityIcekiller; 2012-08-30 at 02:58 AM.

This is a bit of a retcon, but it's important to know: Who has Silverpine's communicator? Is it hidden on his person, turned on, or dose Stacatta have it?I'm developing a game. Let's see what happens! Complex.

Re: [FWM] OOC 3: Eccentric Cheerilee
So ya know Orzel, Gear, the two ally vamponies, and Silverpine, Sandy and Staccata are not quite close enough that they could all be seen one view. Just thought I mentioned that. There's lots of factors in the way, like other taller buildings in the way...and great distances.

Re: [FWM] OOC 3: Eccentric Cheerilee
I think the pair of ponies is Sandy + Vampony, not Miss M + Zephyr.
Also, I'll be heading out tomorrow morning on an overnight trip to Hiroshima, so I'll have minimal computer access until Sunday (my time) evening. I might be able to get in a post tomorrow night, but no promises.I'm developing a game. Let's see what happens! Complex.

I do like the name Neon, but as a pony's name, I'm still warming up to it for a last name.

Re: [FWM] OOC 3: Eccentric Cheerilee
Hey Kelvin, can Luka actually follow them?, he would still be carrying Mile unconcious by hyperventilation , maybe for possible plot potential.

He doesn't know what he's getting into beforehand and it's up to him, so yeah.

Re: [FWM] OOC 3: Eccentric Cheerilee
Yes but this is the OOC thread, not the IC thread
Also, Blaze, who's father was a weather Pegasus for his entire life, would probably be able to recongize when a lightning storm is natural or Pegasus made.Busy with Life

Re: [FWM] OOC 3: Eccentric Cheerilee
Then maybe he should make that comment, inform the others. Its not like *that* much time has passed. Its not that difficult to tell that its not naturally made anyway, because really, a lightening storm situated purely above the Cirrus and nowhere else, right.

Re: [FWM] OOC 3: Eccentric Cheerilee
I'd wait until after the arc before making a final decision. I know I have times where I lose all my motivation for this RP, only to have it spring back once something interesting starts happening. Who knows? Maybe the Misc Adventure thing, maybe Hay Bale getting some actual work to do, something might spark your interest again. But if it doesn't, it was great having you here. You've got such a great style of crazy going with all your characters, it'll be sad to see them gone.
I mean, seriously. You punched out an eldritch abomination by singing until your hooves turned into lightning. I can try to make up stuff like that, but it just wouldn't be the same.
Sure, sure. 'Twill be a nice breather from the actiony stuff.Last edited by TheAmishPirate; 2012-09-01 at 08:13 AM.

Re: [FWM] OOC 3: Eccentric Cheerilee
Though, if you want two want to, we can skip ahead of this scene to them preparing to board the train. There's plenty of time *is lying* for them to create a good "guideline" in which to assist them, because frankly, plans are made with half actual planning and half winging it.
