@@Batbrony Boy I am blind ;__; Thanks anyway.

@@Batbrony I'm assuming the deadline has been moved now, or I'll have to write the entirety of tomorrow to get it done in time :S

Guys I'm afraid I'm going to have to retire from this rp. I have somehow lost all motivation to post and I realize I'm keeping you from advancing more quickly. I hope you understand that this is absolutely not your fault, I loved roleplaying with you guys and hope we might meet again in the future Do with my characters what you want. If you want to kill them or play them I don't mind.

I'd be really glad with about 4-7 days I suppose. I'm halfway through my fanfic now but I'm struggling to find the time to finish it. :s 5 or 6 june would be prefect for me, but if others need more time than that I won't complain :3

@@Batbrony I'm working on something. Not sure if it's going to be any good yet, but there'll be at least one more entry by may 30

@@Chip Circuit, @@Midnight_Aurora Listening to Chip's story, Virtue smiled "You must be rather clever then. I've met plenty of lab-rats in my life, and they all amazed me with their ingenuity." Looking back at Dashia, she grinned. "They're often quite creative with their attempts at wooing mares, though they lack execution." Snickering to herself, she looked up to the sky a bit dreamily. "I have been to The Pitt, but I haven't taken any jobs from there." She squinted her eyes trying to remember what it was like. "It was very long ago, so I doubt they'd recognise me. I just stole one measily thing and then left..." Looking at the two of them with a glare of fake innocence, she giggled. "Ok maybe not one measily thing, but they didn't notice."

@@Windbreaker, @@Midnight Scribbler "If you say so. I was actually planning on..." Scribblegroove answered, interrupting himself as he looked 'over yonder' to see the beach. There wasn't much to do at all over there either. He sighed. "No, you're right, there's not much to do here." he concluded, agreeing with Poppy. He stepped back, and started making his way back up to the town, but he stopped one more time to look back. Taking in the impression of both the worn out docks, the clear water and the fields around them, with the mountains far in the background, he marvelled at the view. "As much as this ordeal is strange, the view is stunning." He said a bit melancholic, taking one last glance before looking at Poppy to see if she agreed. "As if it were a painting. At least that's one thing the ponies of Bloodwell can call themselves lucky with." With that, he turned around and made his way back up to the town.

Jade Beacon In the darkness of her cell, Jade was completely motionless. Her eyes were bloodshot and her face was swollen. She had stopped crying long ago, and now she simply gazed in front of her, empty and alone. From time to time she would adjust her seating, sometimes lie down to try to sleep, but that was it. Scratches and scorched spots on the door marked her attempts at escaping, which she had given up long ago. In anger she had torn down most of the fungus surrounding her, leaving her in near total darkness, with only small bits of the fungus all the way at the top of the cell remaining. She had lost any track of time, and she had no clue how lang she'd been here. All she knew is that she had to stay sane. "Do not let the darkness consume you..." With that thought, she fell asleep. Most of the time she was tormented with nightmares, but the few times that she had peaceful rest she dreamed of the world outside. The sun and the night sky, the sweet spring breeze or the harrowing storms of fall. Feeling and living again. She woke up a bit disgruntled. A set of voices had woken her up. Voices. She jumped up, immediately regretting it because her muscles had grown sore and had been diminished to even less than what they used to be. She grunted in pain, and leaned against the wall of her cell to recover. The voices were still there, and she could see light. Any light at all was blinding to her, and she had trouble to adjust to even the slightest change. "Hello?" She whispered, her voice raucous and timid. Almost stumbling with every step, she exited her cell. She gasped. Finally she was free. Then again, she had no clue what was going on. Had she been left alone? Still mostly blind, and very confused, Jade carefully stepped forward out of her cell. She blinked a few times trying to see if there was anypony nearby, but she couldn't make out anything. Helpless, she pleaded for help slightly louder. "Hello? Anyone?" She said. Her voice was shivering now, as if she was about to cry. Her muscles felt like they were burning, and she was sure she could collapse any moment. "Please help..." She managed to utter as she slowly dropped back to the ground, sitting against the door of her very own cell. She wasn't sure if she could ever see again at all, and this terrified her. She had to take her time to recover. Perhaps after a few minutes of trying to walk and adjusting to the situation she'd be able to continue, but right now all she wished for was someone to come and rescue her, perhaps even hold her tight... Cry with her.

Finally you put your foot down. It's done, tough still at the edge. I hope 19 is ok or it would defeat the entire point of the character.

Well, here's my app. Finally :3 Name: Jade Beacon Race: Unicorn Age: 16 Appearance: Gray-white coat, Light blue and green mane (I saturated it so that it doesn’t look absolutely horrendous, turned out quite nicely actually) Bright jade-green eyes. Backstory: Cutie Mark and what it means: An eye with two magic rays, representing her talent with analysing, researching and manipulating magic and magical energy. Any special Skills or Knowledge: Jade is very knowledgeable. Though it is only book-smarts, and she has very little experience in the world, she will know various aspects of the world’s lore which might help her solve the problems that she will be up against. These are usually specific details, since anything that would be regarded mundane would be lost upon her since she spent little of her time traversing the world. Jade knows a few basic combat spells, and can teleport short distances once every hour without completely exhausting herself. Of course she can levitate things and knows another few basic spells, but anything outside the realm of researching and analysing spells is not very powerful or amazing. Analysing and manipulating already-existing magical energy is something she is very good at however. If jade were to find her magic focus again, she would be able to use it as well. Not many ponies can use it, since it follows very specific instructions and handling with care to work properly. With it her analysing, researching and manipulation spells become far more powerful, and she can virtually see magic with the naked eye through it. Jade can craft certain pieces of magical equipment required for intricate research. She needs very specific components and a proper workplace for this however. Profession: Researcher and ‘magic scientist’. (I prefer to call it metaphysicist, but that’s not important ) Inventory: She is not proficient with any weapon, so anything telekinesis controlled would do. Magic: See Special skills or knowledge. Strength: 6 (Jade is still quite young, and has barely had any physical training whatsoever. That combined with her petite stature make her awfully weak) Dexterity: 8 (though she was awfully butterhooved to begin with, Jade had learned to be less of a screwup by working with het father, whose craft required a steady hoof and utmost delicacy. She still hasn't surpassed her clumsiness entirely however. Faith: 1 (Jade has had little to no interest in religion. She has read about it, but she never bothered to extend her knowledge much further beyond the basics) Intelligence: 19 (Jade is, quite simply put, brilliant. Her magic is mighty, and she will solve nearly any problem she is faced with) Charisma: 8 (being slightly introverted and not having much experience with social contacts, Jade doesn't make a very sweet talker. She makes up for it slightly in appearance, but she rarely speaks anyway) Vigor: 8 (same story as with strength. Small build, little exercise. She also lived quite a luxurious life, so she never really had to deal with pain. Even mentally she cannot take to much stress before collapsing) Luck : 10 (Jade doesn't believe in luck )

I will try to post with Virtue within the next 24 hours. If I don't then advance without her answering the question.

I'm not sure why but I lost most of my motivation for this RP. I'll try to make another post soon but I don't see how there is a reason to wait for me currently. Greshken will stay behind and Virtue is following Dashia.

@@SilverHeart You said you were going to PM me about my character? I've been waiting for a while now and I'm kind of stoked for this RP. How long do you think you'll need before I can join with my character?

I'm certainly joining this. I'll come with a character tomorrow. This is going to be awesome!

Greshken Looking down at Ezekiel and Crackshot. "Worry not. I'm with you. If any group of raiders is stupid enough to attack us after seeing me they're definitely too stupid to beat us." Grinning slightly and raising his cannon slightly higher. "If we must we can always fire up this bad girl while you hide behind me. Anything that survives will most likely run away after a blast like this." his expression changed suddendly. "But if it does come down to dimplomacy and friendlyness, I might have to stay out of sight, or at least at a considerable distance. Wastelanders tend to... run away at the sight of me. So any caravan with mercanaries wont be very happy to see the likes of me. If we're getting closer, I might go around a bit and wait for you guys up ahead." Virtue Sighing noticably at Dashia's question, she then smirked. "I guess I owe you that now. Well, I'd rather keep my youth to myself, but I've been a bounty hunter for the past couple of years. Well, quite specific one at that, but it doesn't matter. I killed for money." She didn't seem to be very fond of that. She slowed down slightly and a mellow expression appeared on her face. Softly whispered to herself. "they deserved it after all..." changing her pace slightly to catch up with the others again and trying to smile, she added "I've also kept some of the raiders entertained with my company, as well as making them feel safer. Some of them are really paranoid a bounty hunter is about to appear on their doorstep to collect their heads. I take this tension away." She scoffed slighly at the memories that popped up in her mind. "With expertise on several different levels."

@@SilverHeart I definitely do want to join I'm just a slacker and a very bad student that has to catch up als his work in his free time :c I'm going to make an application RIGHT NOW. BRB Not my best work. A repurposed old character. If by any chance runesmithing is allowed you can take a look at this as well and tell me what you think https://mlpforums.com/page/roleplay-characters/_/runedawn-earthstriker-r5492 Otherwise, here is my application.

Well I'm having trouble to find the time to post lately but I'm working on it. I am still interested, don't worry

Sorry guys but I'm not posting anymore tonight. Sorry to slow things down yet again :c

@@Unicorncob Virtue would touch anyone if she'd bored enough. Why do you think the raiders in ponyville knew her? :3

@@Chip Circuit It's just fun roleplay-wise. If you dont want me to do it I wont, but it's just a funny gimmick that we could throw in as we travel for a week. It's not like it's going to be anything serious.

Guys please start posting again, I'm sorry for taking so long. I don't want this roleplay to die just because I didn't post for two days :c I wouldn't be able to handle the guilt. @@Midnight_Aurora, @@Chip Circuit I had a funny idea which involved Virtue flirting with Chip, trying to make him fall in love with her just to pass the time since Virtue gets boring quite quickly. That would cause some drama, but I guess it would turn out alright in the end. It's not like Virtue is going to steal Dashia's coltfriend... Just borrow him for a while

Greshken As Aile, and eventually the rest of their group caught up with greshken, he looked down at the mare. He didn't really know who she was, or what she was like. Her beliefs and thoughts were unknown to him, and that bothered him slightly. He wanted to know about everyone he was fighting alongside with, so he decided to ask her question. A very personal one at that. "I may be wrong, but I had the feeling that you knew the strange newcomer. At least he seemed to know you." He was silent for a moment. Attempting not to intrude her past too much with greedy questioning, he decided to ask in a slightly more discreet manner. "If you do know him, what can you tell us about him that might give us an advantage?" Treading forward steadfastly, with the cannon uncomfortably hung from his hip, attached to his armour so he only had to use one arm to carry it, Greshken looked towards the horizon. Soon they would come across a road that would lead them straight towards Manehatten. But staying on roads also meant being vulnerable. Most raiders set up their traps and camps near roads where many travellers could be found. Perhaps they would have to find a more hidden, and thus safe route. But for now their current direction was good enough. Virtue Following Dashia, who seemed to grow more excited with every step, Virtue felt that the silence was dragging her down. Trying to strike up a little conversation, she looked up at the flying pegasus and asked. "What are your parents like Dashia? I've heard a thing or two in the last few hours but I'd love to hear more before we actually meet them." Glancing to chip, who was walking beside her, she raised a brow. "Might be good to learn a few things about your parents-in-law so you can get on their good side, you know."

You're not waiting for me right?

Virtue After Virtue had returned from opening the safe for Crackshot, she adressed Dashia. "I'm sorry to interrupt your conversation with Ezekiel. I'm certain it's very important, but I believe it is time to go. We cannot afford to lose any more time." Turning to the others as well, she tried to assume a slightly commanding, but mostly persuasive position. "If we go now, we might be able to meet up again in about a week, considering our travelling time will be lengthly. We do not have any way to communicate." She paused for a moment and glanced at Dashia's pip-buck. She wasn't familiar with the Vault-tech issued computer, so she didn't know its capabilities. "At least not in any way I can think of. We'll have to trust that we wait for eachother back at Junction town. Let's just aim for a week and hope for the best." Greshken Lifting the cannon back up, he grinned at it with great excitement. "Ah, mine at last. You'll never know how much this means to me Chip." He sighed, turning to look at the mechanic. Only then he realised that he wasn't going to come along with him. Slightly distressed, Greshken frowned. "Going with Dashia might pose to be a problem for me if the Cannon malfunctions. I wont be able to re-" He then stopped himself. Looking at the weapon again, he remembered. "I forgot about the spirit for a moment. It wont break on me..." It seemed as if a grand realisation dawned upon him, and his grin became even wider. "I have nothing to fear as long as I have enough ammunition. This weapon might be far more powerful than I imagined." Taking action and following Virtues words, he simply started moving in the general direction in which he knew he would find the road that lead to manehatten. He just assumed that the others would eventually follow him. "Let
