Warrior Dark Void

(I really can't keep up with this XD so I'll play through Discord every now and again instead of trying to keep up through a player.) Discord laughs "Ooh they beat a boss, what am I going to do?!?" He cackles loudly. "Perhaps the next floor will be more... Fun!" He says with a dark gleam in his eye. (The next floor will have extra hard standard monsters, it'll take two ponies to knock one out. This also means EXP is earned faster, and better items will be gotten from said monsters)

I found a group of ponies heatedly discussing weapons and decided to stop and see. After deciding it wasn't anything really important, I continue out to the road outside of town. "Level 13... Might as well travel now." I murmur to no one in particular. I spit a shattered tooth to the ground and take a step back. The tall, furry creature in front of me rears up on it's hind legs and roars, stunning me. It rushes forward and plants a clawed paw straight into my head, throwing me sideways as I attempt to stand. "My turn..." My weapon appears, the blade rapidly collecting a blazing orange aura. The bear seems confused and steps back. My blade splits into two, and I race forward, and with 4 quick slashes, leave a burning star image through the bear. It explodes into a puff of code and I nearly collapse. "I better get something good from that!" I cough, stumbling over to the few loot drops. (Wow. I never expected the RP to get going this fast! XD it's great! I just can't post through 8 am to 5 pm cause of school where I am. anyways, you guys can start the boss fight for the first floor or the forest queen when you want. I may or may not be able to join XD )

I was making my way back into the town with a large haul of boar hides when I noticed a particular group of three ponies that seemed... Interesting. After selling all the hides I had collected, I work my way over to them, catching words about a big boss battle, which got me intrigued. "Hey, may I join in on this? I'm Void." One of the ponies just about jumps out of her skin while the other two turn to look at me. "Sooo..." I trail off as they think it over several times.

I couldn't care less what other people think about me, (except if it's positive) but what I do like to do is absolutely baffle people, for example: completely and utterly ruining someone's attempt at my level-headedness (yo mamma jokes, jokes at my expense, etc) by either returning better than they started or saying "your opinion is maximally irrelevenant, and you input was unnecessary and unrequested, so please remove your presence from the perimeter of my personal space." Essentially, confuse them with large words XD

I pull the dagger out of the lifeless body of a large boar and check my levels. "Ok, so I'm moving towards speed, strength, and health. Doing good so far..." I stop when I notice something. "Well then. I guess I have enough for a real weapon now!" I turn and start to gallop back towards the Town of Beginnings. I reach the town and see the gruesome remains of the panic earlier in the day, bloodstains on the ground from those who couldn't take it, some who just collapsed, and other things best not to be noted. I groan and trot up to a stall where an NPC is straightening various weapons. I drop a bag of bits onto the table and point. A clink of metal later, I find myself with a single, blood-red blade with a pale grey hilt, all with a single indent down the center. "I like the look of this!" I whisper to myself, hoisting the weapon up to catch the dwindling rays of the dusk sun. I smile darkly and walk out of the town. A boar growls loudly and charges at me. The long blade splits down the center, turning into two half-swords. I laugh and jump forward, bringing my weapons straight forward, then twisting in a complete circle, leaving the boar in pieces. "This will definetely work!" I laugh, ready for any challenge.

Sign ups: http://mlpforums.com/topic/112720-pony-art-online-ooc-discussion-sign-up/ Video games have reached the next level in Equestria. Far after the mane six have lived there life, we find a new technology: Virtual Reality gear. Everyone is buzzing with excitement about the new game, Pony Art Online, which is a virtual experience of living in a medieval type age. Those who just want to have a calming experience remain in the towns while the adventurous ones race out into the feild to level up their character, find new gear, and defeat monstrous bosses. As the servers open for the first time, millions of ponies log in to the new world. Mere minutes after the initial opening, everyone finds themselves in the main square. Confused, many try to log out, but find the option missing. Amidst a rising panic, a familiar voice cackles loudly as the name ripples through the crowd. "Discord." The familiar dragon appears and announces his success. "You are all trapped here in my... Game. You can all see that it has become impossible to log out, and this is for a good reason. Since the mane six have long since died, I've had no one to play with. Now that you all are trapped here, I can have all the fun I want. Feel free to continue playing the game in any way you want, but keep in mind that the rules have changed: if you die here, you die in the real world as well." Gasps rise quickly from the crowd, followed by screams of panic. "But there is some hope for you ponies yet! If you can reach the hundredth floor and defeat me there, then I will let you all leave on your own time. Farewell, and let the games begin!" I cast my eyes down to my hooves, trying to comprehend what just happened. Some dark part of me seems almost pleased, being forced to battle to live. I swallow once hard and breath out, slowing my heartbeat. "Let's get this started." I mutter to myself, heading out to the Fields of outside the Town of Beginnings, leaving the mass of panic and disharmony. I pull out the tiny dagger given to starters and sigh. This wouldn't work. As soon as possible, I'm getting something bigger. I see a young boar turn to me and snort. "And so the fighting begins." I say out loud as the boar charges. I shout and race forward, blade glinting maliciously in the noon sun.

I focus on the ballista shots. More specifically the path they had left. I cast a spell over my vision so the paths become visible, and follow them with my eyes to where I think they had been shot from. With a quick teleport, I find myself several meters away from a pony next to a ballista, and a pony hovering above, sparking with power. This was going to get crazy... "Ooh! I need some popcorn!" The voice comes from next to me, and I see Discord smiling viciously. I roll my eyes and hit him hard with my hind legs, knocking over. "Fine. Fine. Jeez." "I still have not forgiven you, so you'd best be on your way." I growl at him. He disappears in a puff of smoke and I turn back to the standoff.

No clue, but I'll probably end up dressing as a (get this) brony. I'll probably wear my doctor whooves shirt and some sort of mlp jacket. I'm getting close to the age that it would be odd for me to go trick or treating, but that year is NOT THIS YEAR >

This is the prologue to a story I'm writing. If all goes well in editing, then this book will most likely end up getting published on Kindle. After that, it may move on up the food chain. I just wanted to post it here so I could get some feedback and suggestions. Don't be afraid to leave criticism, I appreciate it PROLOGUE A flash. Resonating screeches pound through my head, following the rapid beating of my heart. My eyes whip open, frantically darting left and right. I catch a glimpse of a mysterious figure, holding something. Something small, almost like a handle of some sort. He tosses it up once, catching it again. He then casually tosses it at me. Whatever he threw disappears as soon as it leaves his hand, so I'm left with my growing headache and the question of what it could have been. There is some sort of semi-clear layer between us, easily ten feet wide and seven tall. I blink and in the place of the one figure, many appear, rapidly typing on a large control panel. Were they studying me? No. Testing me. I feel a sudden rush of fatigue, but I will for my eyes to stay open, something in me desperately wanted to escape, and I feel myself begin to strain against leather bindings holding me to some flat, dentist-like chair. One of them says words that I can't make out and points at me, finger waving inches from the glass, probably recognizing that I had woken up. I feel a rush of anger and shout, pushing against the bindings again, but to no avail. One of them points at monitors rested on the control panel and turns back to face another man that had somehow entered the room. He hadn't been there before, for I would have remembered him. He was a large man, almost round, and I swear I could almost smell his stench. How had he gotten in? I then see something slowly making its way into my vision, descending, always pointed at me, a vicious-looking needle protruding far out of a large cylindrical body, several times larger than a football. I strain again at the bindings, now panic and adrenaline aiding me. I need to get free! The people spring up from their seats and start shouting, frantically pressing buttons on the large panel. More pulses of fatigue; it feels like my eyelids are being forced closed by some monstrous beast. I try to cry out, but all I can muster is a soft exhale. I feel everything drain from my body, and I lie still, breathing. I can't move, nor open my eyes. I feel... Peaceful. As if my problems were gone, and I was free... Free to live how I wanted... Suddenly shrieks shred the silence in my brain. I scream, fire blazing intensely through my veins as I writhe, trying to escape the pain. Memories flash quickly, faces I recognized, some that I didn't. Small landscapes with houses, and me. Myself standing still, staring. "THIS..." I shout, tugging one last time. "ISN'T..." But I can't finish the sentence as a black abyss overtakes my vision and I lie still.

Without waiting for a response from the odd pony, I cast a quick spell and fall back into my void. "Tsk. Challenging my strength of the void, and then asking for a fight. The fool." I drift for a few seconds in the void, just thinking, before a small orb drifts in front of me. In it is a picture of Ponyville. "Yeah, why not?" I swipe downwards with my horn and step out into the main square of Ponyville. As my hooves touch the ground, my vision pulses and a headache hits me hard. 'Something is wrong in the void.' I think quickly. And yet I could feel an aura similar to mine moving towards something... Different. 'Perhaps that Disruptis fellow is doing something.' I decide to let Disruptis run his course and turn my eyes to the sky, just in time to see some stray ballista shots falling at an angle towards Ponyville. I race towards where I assume they would land and do my best to catch the shots. After realizing I couldn't slow them, I open two portals to the void, and watch in satisfaction as they fall through. "Guess that's one way to handle that. Now, who fired those shots?"

Yeah I'm not sure why it flipped the picture. It keeps doing it, and I can't fix it. The phone camera is sorta buggy :/

Not quite sure what this falls under, but I thought it looked good. I guess this could be my OC as a human, even though my OC is a unicorn, not a pegasus. Anyway, hope you like it Why must this thing keep flipping my pictures?!
