Admiral Colt

"Alright, then. I think I can agree to those terms. But to be fair, I'll let you pick where we go when I win." He gives a competitive smile to the mare. and then gazes at the nearest race track. Soon enough they head over to the track and Colt looks ahead at the length. "Hmm... Not too bad, I have a decent chance, I was hoping for more obstacles though. I'm great at dodging those... Then again I really don't know this mare's capabilities. Guess I'll find out soon enough." He looks around to see a crowd amassing around him. "That may effect my performance... I'm terrible with crowds. Don't worry Colt, you'll do fine, just focus on the track and you'll be fine." He stretches his wings along with the rest of his body. After that he takes his place at the starting line. Before getting in racing position he glances over at the rainbow mare he's about to race. "First one to 20 laps wins. I don't want to overwork your beautiful wings. But before we start I guess it's only polite I tell you my name. I'm Colt Fortune, but most ponies call me Colt. What's yours if I may ask?" He inquires at the unknown Pegasus before him. He thought she was one of the most beautiful, mares he'd ever seen.

"Yeah, sorry that was mostly for decoration, I don't use the sword that much. The grindstone and polish are out back on the balcony. I usually handle that stuff before bed, that way I can gaze and the sunset while I get the busy work done." He pauses for a moment and inspects the tomahawk. "I remember when I got that one. I had to sneak through a packed tribal camp. But it was such a beautiful weapon, I couldn't resist. In the end I was caught and talked my way out by challenging the chief to a battle of wits. To no true surprise I won, and was able to leave freely with the weapon. Lucky for me they weren't savages. Here follow me ill show you to the grindstone." I wave him over and lead him to the back balcony.

The young stallion just walks out of the train and stetches his wings for the first time in hours. "Ugh, that train ride took forever! Well now that I'm here I can explore the ruins of the Everfree Forest at will." After that he spreads his wings and takes off towards the city in the sky. After a bit he arrives on the clouds, looking around at the Pegasi there. He walks around for a bit before he see notices a large group of ponies watching something. "Hmm, is there an airshow or something? Might as well check it out." He flies over to and above the crowd to see what's going on. After a moment he sees a pony followed by a rainbow tail performing tricks of all sorts. "Who is that?" He pondered, "she's amazing. I wonder if she could show me some of those tricks." He looked quizzically at his saddlebag for a moment before setting it down... "Or maybe I could show her a few of mine." He smiles for a minute. "Let us see if dodging traps and navigating obstacles all these years have paid off." He tucks his saddlebag in a hidden area and starts to fly slowly in to the crowds sight. "Hey you! Doing all the tricks! How about a friendly race? Me against you."

It's over 9000! Well actually it's really only over 8000. Anywho I don't really know him so ill start him out high. 10/10

"I'm not so sure I'm ready to get rid of it quite yet. I haven't sold it, because anypony who wants to buy it either doesn't know anything about it, or are untrustworthy. And trust me in business, there's a lot of untrustworthy ponies. And to answer that second question, we're just about here."Colt look forwards to see his house in sight, it's just a medium small house with the canterlot design. They approach the door and Colt pulls out the key and opens the door, revealing a collection of opened books, maps hung on the wall, gems on pedastals, and a pair of hanging steel daggers on the wall. "Nice to be back in my sweet cluttered home." I walk over and grab the daggers. As he takes them in his grip, he points over to a rack filled with a walking staff, short sword, a bow coupled with some arrows, and a small tomahawk like weapon. "Take your pick, only one though. Also not the bow, that's a family heirloom so ill take that one." After that he walks over to the pedastals and grabs the large sapphire. He quickly puts it in his saddlebag. "Just in case I'm not coming back. The rules of this are easy, if I die you get this, if not, I can finally see what's really special about this, or at least sell it to a good enough buyer.

Creed. Not just because of Assassin's Creed, but because it unifies people who live by a similar code. A brotherhood of sorts, and a bond that can keep friendships and allies together for as long as you stick with each other.

He smiles at hearing the ignorance of the situation. "I'd be happy to. It's nothing quite like the mirror pool. It's a unnaturally large sapphire that was created from magically fusing a bunch of sapphires together. This was done to fit into a queen's crown as the main jewel. After it was finished though the sapphire attracted the attention of a dragon. The dragon was very young, only in his teens so he sneaked into the castle late at night and stole away with the queen and her crown. A mare who happened to be the daughter of this queen went to go find her. And after she found the dragon, her sentiment and love for her mother made the dragon shed tears onto the gem, which made it grow even larger. The dragon allowed them both to leave with the gem, but soon after they returned the queen felt different, it had turned out she had changed into an Alicorn the next day after sleeping with the crown on her head. This gem was then thrown away into the vault until the empire faded away. I led a 1 colt mission to retrieve it, and it turns out the place was hardly guarded. I'm a bit skeptical on the power however, as nothing has really happened for me. I'm assuming the Alicorn part may be legend. But the gem is very real."

"I was on a mission to find these old weapons, but it went wrong. I was lured into a trap by some kind of ancient tribe or something. I barely got out alive. That's why I'm walking with a limp. All I've really pulled in is a few gems, although I do have the ancient sapphire "The Dragon's Tear" ever hear about that one?" He looks at the fellow ancient scholar with inquiring eyes.

Colt chuckle a bit. "That's what treasure hunters do best. Well that, and I need something to compensate for in a fight if my charm doesn't work." He pulls out a of Canterlot from his bag. "Alright, if we're here, my house is over here... Shouldn't be too long before we get there, but I need you to watch my back, if there are any of the things coming our way, I'll try and fly you away. Now follow me Pondah." He motions him to follow and starts to walk towards the direction of his house.

"Names Colt Fortune. Just call me Colt though. That's a good idea. Now I we could try and head to my house, I have stuff there that could come in handy, such as weapons, tools, and such. They'd probably help if this becomes an outspread. But I'll leave the final decisions up to you. So uhh, I guess we should get going sir... whateverYOURname is." A grin crossed his face at the joke.

"Yeah, I'm talking to you, don't worry you're not crazy. Odds are there's not gonna be a way out of Canterlot until the fights over, but the ponies fighting are doing well. I made sure of that. I'm not much of a fighter though, I fight with words. Apparently it's effective too, look at the change in morale for the fighting ponies." Colt gains his attention and points towards the crowd.

Well there's 3 games that tie with each other for me on this list. Mass Effect Trilogy soundtrack. The emotion that it inspires is amazing. When the game wants to be sad, it's hard to hold in a tear, when it wants to be intense, you're on the edge of your seat and the secret behind it is all in the soundtrack. Radiata Stories. This game is a Japanese RPG from the PS2 that released in the U.S. at around 2004-2005 I think. The soundtrack was beautiful, between the traveling and the battle music it's just a great soundtrack that I listen to even in my spare time. Legend of Zelda. Look me straight in the eyes and tell me that this game doesn't have some of the most memorable songs in gaming. I love all of it, from the spooky dungeon music, to the cheery village music. This series has an absolutely fantastic sound track!

"Okay then. That was more effective than I thought it would be. And I'm still alive. I wonder if I could get a path to my house, I could grab my set of daggers and help the others. But it's on the far side of town..." He looks up at the sky and notices it's change in color for the first time. "Strange. Where are the princesses? What happened to the sky? I can't believe I'm saying this, but I miss the ruins in the Everfree forests. But honestly, what else to do, I gave them the fighting chance they need, and saved the one mare. Hey... Who's that over by the castle gates?" I fly over to the gates slowly watching the tide of the battle turn. "Good job Colt, you helped the poor sods." He thought to himself before arriving at the gates. "Uh... Sir, I'm not one of those crazies, I'm the one who just gave that battle speech. Just wanted to know if you knew what was going on."

No Dashie... Don't cry. I'm here to cheer you up, look at my funny fedora. I really like it. The hair's detail is a very nice addition, the wings seem a bit far back though but that might just be me. The body itself is good, if not a tad short, again might just be me. And I really like the background, it compliments the mood of the picture very well. Overall great work, a lot better than I could do

(As I said, I rolled a 20 for dexterity, so I should be dodging these hits.) I stare into the crowd of civilians slowly dying out. "Alright, time to make a difference. And most likely die after all this." I check my leg to make sure the wound is alright. Then nod and gallop into the crowd of possessed ponies doing small things to distract them like, tripping them up, tugging on their clothes, or generally being a nuisance to them. I dodge any attempts at them attacking me, causing them to lose focus and allow the civilians a short chance to retaliate against their enemies. "Now, strike now!"

I'm just glad to help, but I have a minimum set. Either way, it's a pleasure to help in any way I can. I'm young so I don't have too much, but I have enough to help in even the smallest bit. I won't be able to donate until the 9th or shortly after that though.

"Damn it, it's not good enough. I can't exactly fight in this state... What can I do? Maybe a distraction is in order. Run through the crowd, gain their attention, and leave them open for the civs to strike. It's a suicide mission, but it's their only chance." I brace my self and take a deep breath then run into the crowd of the possessed ponies. (Luck don't fail me now.)

Colt glances over at the crowd, nervously pacing. "Actually hold that thought miss, I'll be right back. I need to work my magic." I fly down onto the podium and yell into the microphone set up there. "Ponies, calm down! This chaos isn't going to help anypony! We need to stand together and face the threat. We need to root out the traitor guard, or whatever is possessing him! Don't go attacking innocents! If we do this, we're just letting that Discord creature from the history books win. Bear with me, and don't cause needless chaos." I stare at the crowd that's just staring back at me.
