Doc Ginger

Just got back from the field and saw Nyx: I must say I rather like it! Apologies for causing you no end of issues in my posting of him: but thanks you for not just skipping me and it is appreciated!

I shalt watch you on DA!: I like your artwork and will say its pretty good! (Sorry for the delayed response and the random text of filler)

@ Nyx leaned foreword towards Cas, intrigued. If what this Cas said was indeed true he was more alike Nyx that he would have originally believed (not that he would admit it out loud- he had a fake pretense to keep up after all!) Maybe with time they could form an uneasy truce Nyx thought hopefully. Of course, the circumstances would be right, and they would have too trust each other.... Well, maybe Nyx didn't need an alliance that bad. Instead, he relented, knowing that he at least had proven himself not a coward he wanted to get to the real business at hand. "Not a one of us Cas, we have been discussing it and no one has the faintest idea. May I presume you will share your received instructions with us?"

.... Touche then my good mhuire! However if that's the case they must still exist in some substantial realm to be called a true OC, otherwise their just a background character you have for your own little take of Equestria!

4 is a Long shot from 50,000,000,000,000,000--(ya know what forget it) ;P However I can kinda see where your coming from there. But my only 2 is considerably easier to keep track of XD

How does one forget what pony-type their own OC is >.< lol that's rich. But I look foreword to seeing it again once you touch it up then!

O.o my apologies to the as of now recently deceased Mist Chaser! All in all very good, I would say if you took a little more time making the wording even it would look muhc better because most artwork can look only as good as its worst piece. Past that the only thing I really have stick out to me is the lack of texture in Pinkies hair. A nice digitization to a nice piece of art! Kudo's to you and your friend.

@@Motion Spark The design on the tarot card being that pic i just uploaded. Maybe I'm not speaking articulately so I'm going to dumb it down for myself, and you can tell me where i'm confusing yo: I want the cutie mark to be the back of a tarot card, so a black rectangle and the design on so said card being a red Bridget's Knot (which is the upside down triangle picture, just red coloured.) Does that make any more sense or are we reading from two different books here??? EDIT: Im really sorry I confuzed you, I didnt mean to be so cryptic and I hope I didnt cause any undue amount of stress or issues

Black background in the general shape of a tarot card, and that design except it being red coloured. space filler of doooom!

MY BAD: i got ahead of myself and did not explain properly. That image is an example of a 'Bridget's Knot'. So yes please if that could be the basis for the design of the CM >.< Apologies for being difficult

Damn O.o I made it into the list/????? ^.^ my day = made. Okay well If at all possible I would like the card itself to be black, with a red Bridgets Knot on it! Is that specific as you were thinking or am I mis-understanding you? ,

COUNT ME IN! Once again a phenomenal piece of work, and I must say to date it is my favorite But then again I always was a sucker for Luna in all her shapes and forms.

(OOC: Im still good for it... but when one drops out it makes the next likely too and so on... and other than the one or two poor RPer's I actually kinda enjoyed it so If people begin posting again Ill happily come back, but.... Im sorry to say Rainbow, but i think its already dead :'()

@ Nyx smiled confidently at the new arrival. Fairly standard for an Ahuizotl, that is to say, rather large and confident. Great for getting the job done and making sure it was done right. And very assertive and full of itself: excellent for making it easy to remain invisible and further his own agenda. The two other ponies that had joined the table.... less so. One couldnt even bother to speak properly and the obviously superior one seemed to be the brooding type, completely the wrong sort to be fighting this kind of war... Still Nyx thought, muscle was muscle. "So," Nyx began to the Ahuizotl, "What shall we call you and when will you calm down enough to un-puff youself and tell us what we have been called here for?" Nyx purposely baited theAhuizotl, wanting to see how in control of its baser instincts it really was, and to show the more nervous members of the team it was nothing to be feared.... As long as it thought they were useful in its own designs. However one thing irked him about it, "And what are you doing here leading this Op if your so skeptical of the princess's? I'm sure more than a few at this table would be willing to die for them... And yet you seem like you think of them as a ....... distraction. At best that is.. Nothing personal, it just could make some ponies question your loyalties. Professionally of course." Nyx half smiled, making himself appear fully in control of himself and the conversation, either he was going to die for this, he thought, or the brazen attitude would convince the Ahuizotl he was a worthy asset to keep around. Lance nodded and kept his seat, listening to the conversation flowing around him, and quickly became excited to begin the mission. This would be his first operation away from the main army and forces, and he was determined to make a good name for himself, though he questioned the wisdom of sending a bunch of un-tested ponies in a brand new unit to accomplish a mission of such importance. Ever loyal though, he locked him mouth tight, hoping the griffins would begin their journey before he became too nervous.

Nyx nodded, so everyone was as clueless as he it seemed. Nyx did not like that one bit at all and wondered if there even was a way to fix that issue. But he did promise himself that he would figure out what was going on before events of this little revolution began to pick up speed. "Call me Nyx." He replied to Addem simply, he appeared to be another pony of at least standard intelligence, just like the rest of this little party. A good omen Nyx thought, as intelligent ponies usually ended up thinking themselves above manipulation and we in fact much easier to fool into working alongside Nyx's schemes, albeit indirectly. What Nyx needed, was an idiot whom he could use as his instrument. Realizing he was silent for longer than he intended Nyx covered up his cognitive processing by speaking again to Addem, "My own skills are rather... administrative...in their application."

@ @ Lance studied the map with interest, it seemed to him that those surrounding him had confidence and skill, maybe even had seen plenty of fighting in the current rebellion. "I ah..... How big is this cash of weapons that only the few of us are acting as guides? I mean.... Im not questioning orders or anything," Lance eyed Aiden, confused as to how he would even think of questioning orders from their good king's heralds out loud. "but If were to be his.... chosen ones.... can the few weapons we are capable of delivering really change the fighting for the better?" @@@Civil Sunset@@Addem Up "Excellent then," Nyx began. "An armourer, a medic, and some muscle. We have quite the crew here," Nyx nodded at Addem, Civil, and Zeta each in turn, purposely leaving out his own position, still trying to maneuver himself into coming by some leverage over the others. "I am filled with anticipation and wonderment for the task we have ahead... Does anyone here know what that might be?"

@@@Civil Sunset@@Addem Up Nyx glanced at the new arrival. thankful that another pony had made it too the meeting, though worried that a pony he did not know would know of him. "Welcome Civil. I do oh so hope that you have only heard some of the better points about me." Nyx looked the new arrival over: a bookie, polite, civil, a healer.... Safe to assume also a scholar and maybe a bit naive on the social side of things Nyx thought. An easy acquisition if he were intelligent enough to operate undercover well. "What skillsets do we have present at this table then?" Nyx asked pointedly at Civil. As the new pony spoke to Civil Nyx replied, "Pleasure, who might you be?" @ Lance shifted nervously before taking a seat. "Nice to meet you all. Though ma'am... What are we doing here? Meeting in.... A place like this? Surely soldiers of..... you know, we should be free to meet openly?"

@ Lance nodded nervously. "M-my apologies." He produced the letter quickly, still feeling foolish and uneasy. He had never before had to operate in an area where Sombra had not held full dominion, and the thought that there even was enough revolutionaries to threaten true loyalists chilled him. "My orders sir.." Lance spoke softly, passing the paper to the Griffin who seemed more dominant. @ Nyx frowned, it was rather unusual for there to be pieces in play he did not know about. Information and knowledge were his strategems, and here he was talking to an operative of the princess's he had never heard of. Unacceptable he thought, vowing to dig up any more secrets the princess's had kept hidden from him. "It is good to meet you Zeta. I am Nyx, confidant and operative for the Moon." he paused, mostly for the dramatic effect. "Forgive me, but took you in? Apologies for digging into matters sensitive, but I must be sure that we can... trust each others loyalties." Nyx was uneasy, evidently this 'Zeta' was a confidant of the princess's as well so obviously skilled in some such aspect, but he seemed... honest... to Nyx. Honesty meant one of two things to Nyx, and he needed to figure out which this one was.

@ Nyx lifted the corner of his mouth in the parody of a smile, "I was always more partial to the dark of the moon myself." Nyx looked the pony before him up and down, silently judging his character. He appeared.... Taut, to Nyx, all the better for some skillful politicking. Though his eyes marked a determined aggression which made him dangerous. Nyx decided that he would have to learn more about this new 'friend' before marking him as an asset or not. Though there was something familiar about the whole pony, Nyx figured to himself that this one was one of Celestia's thugs since Nyx had not heard of him from Luna's employ. "It is good to see I am not the only who showed. Your name comrade?"

Lance shuffled nervously into the inn, he was late he knew, and recently being transferred from another arm of King Sombra's army he knew he had set a bad precedent for whomever he was supposed to meet here. Lance knew not the names, rank, or even unit of the griffons that he was told to meet here, though seeing a small group surrounding two griffins at their own table it was unmistakable that there was where he needed to go. Tentatively he approached the table, introducing himself to the two griffins, "Lance Minder, Combat Medic, ah.... reporting as ordered." Nyx Ul'han eyed the crowds of the tavern suspiciously, his gaze resting over every patron as he judged them, marking out which ones were dangerous to him currently and which were potential marks. He disliked being tasked to make contact with other supporters of the Alicorns, and preferred to work alone. But he had reached as high as he could go in Luna's favor whilst remaining hidden within his shadows, and she had tasked him with this herself: to make contact with others. No matter, he thought to himself. He was clever enough to mitigate any risks that he would have to take for himself, and still position himself to reap any rewards forthcoming. @ Spying what looked to be a potential candidate he slid out from the shadows, molding a glamour over himself so no one could see him from the corner of their eyes (No sense in being careless he thought) and slid into the seat opposite the Red and Grey pony he had staked as a 'comrade' and spoke, hoping to decipher whether this pony truly was privy to the same cause as he. "May the Sun light your path friend."

Honestly, I think most people aren't reading, they see the original post and then scroll straight down to the reply box and submit their info.... My bad was because I was trying to get my own request in and skipped half a page on my phone, letting me to believe I was number 16 not 23 or whatever I actually was. Regardless, it is rather stupid that you have to deal with this now considering you started this with noble intentions.

@@Motion Spark I was following the thread rather avidly to admire your artwork and saw how many people refused to read or think that you were still taking requests, needless to say I became a little aggravated as well that they don't even bother to read the thread before posting their info. I felt a little bit like exploding but then I re-counted the requests and found that MY OWN was beyond your 21 limit by a few people, so I wish to express apologies for all of us who mis-counted or just plain ole didn't bother to read and keep clogging your thread with requests you would rather not see.
