[FwM] Recruitment/OOC/Character Thread

[HalfTangible]

Still, Scarlet is pretty dangorous if you think about it.

She makes fire, that don't need a lot of thinking about >.>

[Mystic Muse]

So, can I assume that Roy has told Soft about the Chief's conditions by now?

[Mindfreak]

yeah, I think you can.

[Mystic Muse]

yeah, I think you can.

No offense Mindfreak, but I'd prefer to hear it from the horse's mouth just to be sure.

Pun totally intended.

[Mindfreak]

Just voicing my opinion is all.

--------------------------------------

I'd like to remind people that Pegacorns are not just ridiculously rare, they are game changers in the current struggle.

Putting in a young pegacorn character is essentially painting a humongous target on their back. They may have immense godlike potential, but they have several centuries less practice with it, and Dark Forces may see them as a free ticket to the big time by corrupting them, possessing them, or outright draining them of their powers. Even most 'good' ponies are going to see them in a highly political light and pressure them to join either Luna or Celestia and bolster that Princess's position.

I have an alien pegacorn princess character that I'll be posting later (those who read the ruins adventure in the other RP probably know who I'm talking about), and she spends nearly all of her life under a disguise illusion to keep ponies from discovering this fact about her. She's much younger (technically), and thus less developed and experienced, than either Luna or Celestia and public knowledge of her status as a pegacorn would thus put her in mortal danger almost constantly.

There are currently four known pegacorns in Equestria. Luna, Celestia, Zoda (however twisted, he does fit this description), and the mysterious Alien Princess (for those who play a Space Pony or know of their existence and what it signifies).

[Mystic Muse]

Decided to just go ahead and post.

[Lix Lorn]

No argument there.

You ninja'd me. :P

[Orzel]

I dunno

Should I bring in Grills, a pony from the Fire Pony Civil War, or a descendent of a pony from the Fire Pony Civil War (Other than Grills)?

Brief Summary of the Fire Pony Civil War:

Spoiler

Show

Fire Pony Major House Right before Luna's Imprisonment in the Moon

Spoiler

Show

Twinkletoes(not fire pony) -Captain General Fiery Explosion (recently deceased)
|
Brigadier Wildfire & Brigadier Flashfire

Flashfire- Honey Bun (not fire pony)
|
Searing Clash, Hotspot, & Cocoa (still a foal)


Wildfire- (Unknown Pony)
|
Brimstone III

Fiery Explosion mysteriously fell ill and dies before naming a successor to head the Fire Pony Family. Siblings Wildfire and Flashfire challenge each other for control of the family. When Civil War between the sisters break out, Wildfire takes half the family (most of the lower ranked family) and joins Luna. Hotspot breaks with his parent, Flashfire and joins Wildfire, Brimstone, and Luna's side.

During the war, Wildfire sends a pony to poison Flashfire to prevent a sibling showdown. Searing Clash takes control of the main family troops and defends the lands north of Canterlot. Twinkletoes begs Searing to take a lesser role in the war but Searing ignore his mother's plea.

Wildfire's forces clashes with Searing's. Searing reluctantly accepts a champion duel with his uncle/aunt and wins. Searing banishes his/her uncle/aunt into a volcano (tradition punishment for losing a fire pony duel).

Hotspot duels Brimstone III for the right to challenge Searing. Hotspot wins the duel but does not banish Brimstone. Hotspot gather the Luna forces and rushes to Canterlot.

Twinkletoes again begs Searing not to duel a family member, this time Searing's sibling, Hotspot. Cocoa advises Searing to fight Hotspot to finally end the family civil war and unite the family.

Searing goes to her/his friend Celestia for advice as she is in the same predicament. Celestia decide she can't have the Fire Ponies banishing each other to volcanoes and decides to confront her sister.

Unable to resolve the conflict, Wildfire takes what is left of the Luna allied fire ponies and leaves Equeastria to live in the land of the camel.

Name: Grills (Flamestrong)
Title: Colonel (Though only known by militia and guard members)

Race: Unicorn

Appearance: As the normal RP, Brown coat with either a dark red or bright red mane. Heterorchromia of the iris. One grey, one brown.

Age: Mid to late 20s

Skills: Pyromancy and Controlling magical energy. He is also a excellent chef but he rarely cooks anymore.

Flamestrong family sword style C
Flamestrong family Unarmed Martial arts A
Flamestrong family Pyromancy B+
Strength C
Speed B
Toughness B
Magic Energy D
Diplomacy B
Leadership C
Cooking A++

Biography: A member of one of the highest noble Pyro Pony families, Grills dreamed of leaving the family military profession and becoming a world famous chef. After many bouts of betrayal and loss, he gave up on his dream and joined his family in their newly rekindled civil cold war.

Personality: Similar to the normal RP. He is still kind and friendly to regular ponies. To ponies he is attracted to, he uses manipulation and seduction and a defensive mechanism. Grills is this way because he has to combat his fear of loneliness brought on from seeing his family fight and banish each other. Grills is paranoid, fearing his own banishment into a volcano will come soon. The paranioa is what fuels his everchanging addictions which include alcohol, mares, and physical punishment.

Relationships: Most of the same ponies of the original RP. The Luna Celestia conflict is not a major issue to this unicorn. Fire Flowier Flamestrong is his mother.

Cutie Mark: A fork poking into a flame.

[Crisis21]

Either way, please tell us details of the Fire Pony Civil War. I would like to include it in an upcoming list of 'Major Events' timeline that will help more with the world's background.

Deadtiming for reals now. must do homework.

[Mindfreak]

I am back. I'm not having Zach make a completely formed thought that Foxtrot might be more then he seems. It is weird that a washed up broadway pony can move fast enough to dodge an adult griffin going 50 miles an hour in a divebomb. Plus, it is also weird for this same pony to jab another pony fast in the spots where stitches would be, lining a pony's stomach.

Soon, Zach will probably start wondering these things.

[Benson]

I lied to myself, Fox Trot ain't nothing like no bard. He's a Rogue with improved invasion and made used of his sneak attack xD

[Grif]

Seeing how grimdark our alternate version of our characters can be is... interesting.

Ah hell, I might as well write up a history of how Celestia razed the northern lands, who was one of the first to support the rebellion.

[Mindfreak]

What I'm wondering now is, what is Foxtrot going to do with Zach lying on the floor, out cold?

[Benson]

Fox Trot really can't do anything anymore, not with Zach on the otherside of the bars and guards supposedly watching from behind some one0way mirror. He was only able to sneakily jab Zach because Zach had him pulled up against the jail cell bars, however Fox Trot's hoof was free and well yea. And Fox Trot did want to hit him in his stitches for a while. xD



Yea...Alt. Fox Trot is not nice, he's essentially the other path softlight Fox Trot did not take. Complete 180 in who they became to be. It's fun.

[HalfTangible]

I should probably mention, Lone Star isn't actually a monk. He just fights like one: no weapons except conditioning.

You know who you are

[Mystic Muse]

Smoothie is probably going to be quite a bit different in this RP.

[Mindfreak]

Well, hopefully Foxtrot can figure out how to explain to the guards how Zach's stitching got broken.

[Benson]

Fox has his pretty good ranks up their in his Diplomacy and Bluff xD...that's what he's good at doing, really Smoothie is the only one who really who can discern his lies lol...unless of course he wants you to know somethings up with him, case in point, Zach.

[Mindfreak]

Eh, advanced time to Zach waking up for a second time with new stitches. This time, wanting to see Soft Serve, and is willing to walk to her bar in full chains if needed

[Grif]

I'm thinking whether I should get Icy to pop out and attempt to murder Zach. Ye lords, why am I RP-ing her like Miko now?

[Mystic Muse]

Eh, advanced time to Zach waking up for a second time with new stitches. This time, wanting to see Soft Serve, and is willing to walk to her bar in full chains if needed

Once Smoothie is done with him, I suspect he'll never want to go near Soft's bar again.

That is, if he doesn't do things the easy way.

[HalfTangible]

I'm pretty sure he won't want to anyway. Mind-reading isn't known for being a pleasant experience memory.

[Mindfreak]

Deadtiming.

Feel free to bring Zach over to Soft's in chains, I'll make a response in the morning

[Mystic Muse]

I'm pretty sure he won't want to anyway. Mind-reading isn't known for being a pleasant experience memory.

With Smoothie, the mind reading isn't the problem.

It's everything else she can do back there.

[HalfTangible]

It's never just the mind-reading. But the mind-reading is pretty bad too, when you think about it.

Yeah, it is.

[Orzel]

I am secretly inserting a pony in Mt. Trotia.

That OK with everypony?

@V: Guess not. Still don't know who's I put in there though.

Not much of a secret now, is it
