Sir Xarthas VI

It's just... But it's... I don't... Why doesn't it.... *slaps self in face* WTF?!

If you're taking more requests, I'd like one of my OC's drawn! Reference image can be found here. Would be awesome if I could colour it myself. I'd just like you to draw her, with markings and all, just no colour, of course. As for pose... One kinda like the 2nd image in the OP (laying down). Thanks!

@@Missklang, @@LonnaKitty, @@CharChar, Shining continued walking, almost at the edge of the forest "My name? It's Shining Midnight. Royal Watcher of Equestria, and General of the Royal Guard. The only higher ranking ponies than me are the princesses. Now please, if you don't mind, I'm trying to focus on how far we have to go exactly." He says as he stops walking. He closes his glowing blue eyes for a moment, and measures out where their destination is in his head. Moments later his horn starts glowing, and a circle of light forms on the ground, about 4 hooves diameter. "Everyone step in. We're taking the express way to Canterlot."

Scariest experience? Hmm... I've been hit by cars quite a few times.... Never injured, though. First two times were scary, until I got back up, kicked off the bumper of the car that hit me (because they weren't paying attention to where they were going), and continued on my way. This happened while I was cycling, by the way. And that wasn't really fear, just an adrenaline rush. I guess for my real fear experience... Hmm... Guns have been pointed at me, but I've always kept cool... Mostly because I know that the person pointing the gun doesn't have the balls to pull the trigger, or that the safety is on, in which case I just walk up to them and grab then gun (this has happened like 5 times... my luck kinda sucks. But hey! Free gun!). Hmm... I've never been truly scared before. At least not that I remember. And judging by other peoples' experiences, I think I'd probably remember anything that was truly fearful. Meh...

Buck this heat. It's overcast right now, and still it's 90 degrees and as humid as a rainforest. In Wisconsin. Like WTF. Haven't gone outside all day today. Or yesterday. Not going out tomorrow either. Buck that. NOTE: According to Wunderground.com, the outside temperature is 88.6, feels like 102, and humidity is 70%. F*CK.

Is that their slogan? Sounds like it.

Are the rear legs longer on purpose (weight distribution, oc figure, etc), or was that accidental? If they were a little shorter, it'd make it slightly better. Or longer front legs. Either way. Oh, and I say slightly because it already looks great! Keep up the good work!

They all have their thing. Barq's is good because everytime I go to Burger King they have what I call the 'Ambrosia Machine' because it has an option for Vallina Root Beer... And it is, well Ambrosia. Sprecher's is good straight out the bottle. Plus they add a bit of vanilla to their flavoring anyway, so that makes it even better. They also got REALLY good Cream Soda...

Dark stepped out onto the other side of the thicket, and sniffed the open air. He then stretched his legs and stood completely upright. "Tree Heaven? I think I've heard of this place before. Was a long time ago, though. About... what was it... 1600 years ago? That seems right..." He says looking around the town. "You said something about a comfy chair?" He asks with a grin.

@@Missklang, @@LonnaKitty, Shining hears Missklang and Argante start to follow him. He sighs, and continues walking. "No, actually. They haven't bothered my about the whole 'friendship is magic' thing. Mostly because they know I believe that Honour is Magic. They have their ideals, I have mine."

@@Missklang, @@LonnaKitty, Shining nods towards Argante, agreeing to her proposition. He then turned to Missklang "Do not think lightly of me. I am the most powerful Unicorn in Canterlot. I have created more spells than Starswirl the Bearded, and I've only ever had 2 of them backfire. Granted, those were major explosions and we had to rebuild quite a bit, but it was only twice. And that was years ago. I was not given my position just because of my goggles." He says as he shows her his goggles, which have over 100 filters. "And to comment on your thoughts, I had altered the spell for chaos magic before Discord had cast it. It still didn't work. The magic required to cast it can't be random and sporadic, otherwise the form in which the spell is used changes rapidly, and is very unstable." He said as he looks to his left, think he saw another shadow. Suddenly, a very tall figure appears just inside the tree wall. It slowly makes it's way towards Shining until it stops right in front of him. The figure is covered in a black fog, hiding all of it's features. "Would you turn off the mist? They're no threat to you. As long as you're peaceful, anyway." He says to the figure. The figure then disables his spell, allowing everypony to see his form. Standing almost 10 hooves (feet) high, the alicorn dwarves Shining. He is covered in black fur, with dark red swirling patterns all across his torso, legs, and head. "Yet again, you use that spell to get my attention. What is it this time? Find something fun to do?" The alicorn says with a sneer. Shining just chuckles lightly "Fun? You should know me by now." He says as he turns to face Argante and Missklang "Just to clarify, this is Dark Blood." He turns back to face Dark Blood "The alicorn is Argante. The unicorn is Missklang. And to answer the question you're going to ask, no we do not know each other intimately. You should know I'll never find anypony to fill that position." He says. Dark Blood walks around him to look at the other two ponies. "I can sense chaos magic from you, Missklang. Enough power to rival Discord. Though he is naturally born to it, being a chaos creature... And I see you have formidable magic power as well, Argante. Though you hide it. Must be those bracelets. I think I've seen those before... Anyways. Shining! What do you want of me this time?" Shining just pulls out the book and shows it to Dark "You've finally found it, eh? And you think I can alter it so only you and the princesses can cast it... Right? Luckily for you, I'm in a good mood. I think I'll help you out. But for a price." He chuckles, and points north "About 59,550 hooves that way, there's a... Let's just say she's a friend. I want you to go to her, and tell her I sent you. She'll give you something, and you must bring it back to me. I'll wait here. Oh, and those two must go with you." Dark points to Argante and Missklang. "Good luck!" And he disappears. Shining curses to himself "Should've known this would go this way... Guess I'm goin' over there." He says to himself as he starts walking north.

Dark got up and started following her "I could use a comfy seat right about now... Been so long since I've been home..." He says as his voice trails off. Thinking of his homeland in his mind, he accidentally hits his head on a thick branch. The branch snaps loudly and falls to the ground as he just continues walking. "I would also care for some space... I don't like to have to duck when I walk.." He says with an irritated look on his face.

@@Missklang, @@LonnaKitty, Shining stood there with his eyes shut to enhance his hearing, and he listened to his surroundings "Yes, I am the one who created that spell. And you're partly right. It's not 100% magic. About 15% of it is Dark Matter. The outer shell of it to be specific. Otherwise the ball would be coloured." He says as his left ear twitches slightly. "And I've already tested the spell using chaos magic. Well, I've had Discord test it before. It didn't turn out so well. Luckily I had the memory erase spell handy and deleted the spell from his mind, so he can't cast it again. So that would be a no to giving you the formula." He states rather plainly. He quickly turns around to see a glimpse of a tall shadow, before it disappears. "He's here. Argante, if you wish your people to remain safe, I suggest ordering them to get indoors. I don't know what kind of mood he's in."

@@Missklang, @@LonnaKitty, Shining quickly looks over at Missklang "That's exactly what it is. A Black Hole. Though not a normal one. This one doesn't effect gravity, but instead attracts strong magic. And with slight alterations to the spell, you can control how powerful the magic has to be before the black hole starts to attract it. You can also change the radius in which it's effects don't work, like I have for this occasion." He says somewhat triumphantly, and then the black hole disappears. "Ah, it's wore off. Now we wait."

Dark just sighs again "There's nothing to be said then. I could explain my past, but I don't want you to run in fear either. I'd like to have at least one pony to talk to occasionally. That damned watcher only comes around when he needs help with something, and bass... Well me and her have our differences..." He explains.

I've gotten a few warnings on this forum, but for minor stuff. Three warnings for 'circumventing the character minimum'. One for telling someone that they should've created the post in a different place, rather than telling a mod about it. And another one for 'excessive vulgarity' because I was makin fun of someone with a video, which I'm not 100% sure I was really making fun of anyone with it, I just posted it and the mod automatically thought 'troll!'. As for other places... I do wield the ban-hammer on a WoW P-Server, and have used it a couple times. As well as a couple forums (non-mlp). Haven't really been banned from anywhere, though. At least, not that I remember.

SAO would be a good one. Soul Eater as well. Maybe Death Note, as I'd probably replace Light as the holder of the book, but I would use it for other purpose, and not so obviously. Hmm... Maybe Assassination Classroom. Noragami... Too many to choose. Can I just go to a universe/dimension where there's a shit ton of planets I can visit, and each planet has a different anime world? Like one planet is Bleach, a different planet is Fairy Tail, and tons more? That'd be awesome.

He looked at her with a troubled look on his face. "You don't know Equestrian history? Even from before you were imprisoned? I've lived here for at least eight thousand years now. I've changed my name a few times, but I still look the same. That's why every time the princesses see me, they usually keep their distance... They know who I am, but not whose side I'm on..." He says with another sigh. "Just to make sure you really don't know who I am... Let me ask you this: Does the name Demonic Shadow sound familiar?"

I choose zombie apocalypse. Mostly because I feel I'd have the highest chance of survival in a zombie virus outbreak. And when you describe zombies like that, I picture the different kinds of zombies from Left 4 Dead 2, and The Last of Us. When you describe the robots, I picture a Terminator-esque world, in which case we'd all die, because humans aren't actually that smart. When you describe aliens, well there's just no chance.

"You don't like fighting? That's too bad. Judging by those bracelets you're wearing, I'd say you're quite powerful. Nothing like me, of course, but compared to other alicorns, you're above Celestia when it comes to total power." He says as he sees the expression on her face, flushed with embarrassment. "Oh, and don't worry. Most ponies who see me end up tripping on something because they run away from me. You're... the eight pony who hasn't run from the sight of me." He says with a deep sigh. "Honestly, I'm quite sick of them running away. I'm not evil anymore! I'm the one who stopped the Kaitan invasion, for Celestia's sake! If doing that doesn't make up for my evil past, I don't know what will..." He says, sitting down with a loud thump.

Dark let out a quiet chuckle, and looked at the alicorn "You should really watch where you're going. Oh, and by the way, the name's Dark Blood. I figured I should at least tell you it now, so in case you feel you have to fight me later on, you know what to call me." He says as he lends out a hoof to help the alicorn up.

Dark's grin faded away slowly "Me? Bad? I may have been somewhat devilish last time I had entered the Everfree, I am all but evil this time around. I had grown bored as well, rotting away between the pages of ancient books. So I figured I'd have a bit of outside time, so I started walking through the forest." He says as he moves his right hoof to exclaim the vastness of the forest. (OOC: Just to clarify. A standard pony is about 4' 0" - 4' 8" tall. Alicorn's are usally 5' 5" - 6' 2" tall. I just felt I needed to clarify that since Dark is substantially taller than most ponies, being 10' 3", and almost having to duck to walk through the forest...)
