Midnight Glimmer

I fart in your general direction!

I'm going to have to drop out on this. It's too hard for me to read with all the grammatical and spelling mistakes and perspective changing and whatnot. It was a cool idea but I don't think I can run with it the way it's going. Good luck to the rest of you though.

Ponyville. It was a somewhat quiet town where exciting things only happened once in a while, usually by some comical mistake or a random happenstance. Glimmer didn't mind though; it was a calm place. A place that took things at its own pace, unlike the buzz and rush of the big cities. A strange little pony like her, with her fortune reading shop, was unusual enough to get her a decent flow of customers, but not unusual enough that people looked at her funny. She was sitting outside one of the shops, sipping on a glass of water as other ponies milled around and went about their days. Sometimes, when she had a day off, she liked to just watch everypony live their lives. There was a sense of contentment in this town that she enjoyed; a sense of peace. She took a bite of the daisy and cucumber sandwich she had ordered, her eyes turning to a slight commotion in one of the streets. One of the little fillies, Scootaloo, seemed to have had an accidental run in with an older looking pegasus. He had a white coat with an orange and red mane and tail. A red fez, knocked from his head, lay in the road as he righted himself and eventually retrieved it, sending the excitable little fillies on their way. She eased back into her seat; he seemed to be okay so it was no cause for alarm. The young ones disappeared as rapidly as they came and he disappeared from her sight as she went back to enjoying her sandwich. She contemplated what she wanted to get done that day. She had some spare bits; she might visit the dressmaker and see about ordering some new garments. When your made your living off telling fortunes and looking into the future, appearance played a big part. She had some grocery shopping to do, but after, perhaps. Finishing her sandwich, she slid from the seat, left her tip, and proceeded towards the boutique where she hoped the dressmaker, Rarity, would be in. When it came to clothes, nobody could top her. Glimmer would never forget the first garment she had ever ordered from her; a silky sheer wrap with silver stars and matching sleeves. The material was so light it practically floated; a trick she could manage with a little use of her magic. There was no comparison for quality; the stitchwork was superb, the color rich and inviting, and the feel of the fabric against her body was heavenly. It had guaranteed her patronage for the remainder of her residence in Ponyville.

By all rights, just because someone is a Cupcake or a Muffin doesn't mean they are a newbie roleplayer, so I hope you don't restrict anyone based on their rank here. I've been roleplaying since I was a kid (going on 13+ years now) and I've tried a variety of game structures and types. Forum based rps, like this one, are where I got my start though. ^-^ Would I be able to join with Midnight Glimmer if I play her as a unicorn instead of an alicorn? http://mlpforums.com/page/roleplay-characters/_/midnight-glimmer-r5510

Congrats you guys! Arylett, will you be posting the resulting art or just pming them to the winners? I don't know about anyone else, but I'd love to see your take on these guys. Thanks for hosting this; it was really generous of you to offer your time for free like that. I'll probably hang around and see how much your commissions are, once I get some money accrued again. Good luck with your selections!

What is the RNG? Sorry if this seems a silly question; I just joined day or two ago so I'm not familiar with all the terminology here. ^-^;;

I would love to see Glimmer done in your style! I don't have many pictures of her, but here's a link to her oc page: http://mlpforums.com/page/roleplay-characters/_/midnight-glimmer-r5510 I know you said you're not likely to do alicorns but you never know if you don't try so here is me trying! ^-^

I really dig the translucent wing; kind of took it as a "alluding to" sort of thing, like showing how she was a unicorn and became an alicorn later, very cool. Beautiful style.

Thanks so much, Kro;re, that was very useful! <3 Most of the rules are common sense but it was good to be sure on all of them just in case. Also, your avatar is adorable, is that your OC? What a cutie!

Hiiiiiiiiiiiii! Welcome back! That feels kind of funny, welcoming someone back to a place I just arrived at as well, but nevermind that! I hope I can be the start of many new friends for you! And I certainly hope your life starts going on an upside instead of a downside now!

I'll have to look them up when I get caught up! Thank you! Now I'll know where to go when I run out of delicious MLP episodes! ^-^ By the way, do you know if the rules are listed anywhere else? I tried to read them but they cut off before they even got into the rules either by some error with the site or with my computer. I just don't want to accidentally break a rule without knowing. I operate by a pretty good code of conduct that should help me avoid most of the big points but I know some websites, especially fandom websites, can have more particular or specific rules to keep things on topic and such. One website I go to forbids the discussion of certain dolls (It's a BJD website) because they are not on their "approved" list.
