I finally saw the movie, and it was amazing!! 

Dang, Pinkie Pie is seriously nuts XD. The expression on her eyes sometimes has me really concerned XD.

Anyway guys, now that I have seen the movie I finally have a complete picture of Equestrian history. Prepare yourself for idea's, concepts and references to stuff from every season and the film .

The journey has only just begun....

Not all ponies were in the large crowds that where at Canterlot, There were a few who would hang around the party but mostly avoid the large groups, The smaller groups were chatting amongst themselves and having a good time. Four ponies were in a small group all on their own these ponies were the Family of Kindness and Chaos, Fluttershy, and Discord. Who had gotten married many years before secretly inside the Chaos realm.

The two had had two children as well: Maple Bat, The loyal Vampire-Fruit Bat-Pony who severed valiantly under Luna. Maple excelled in combat and in-battle leadership plus she was an especially good shot with a bow, The talent that earned her the cutie mark she proudly bears today. Maple was shy normally but as a guard, she couldn't be, Thankfully this festival was during the day

The other sibling was Woodland Orchestra: The young dragonequus son of Discord. "Woody" was a natural at magic and could learn new spells extremely quickly. His talent in magic came from his voice: Singing caused Woody to be able to use magic far beyond that of which a normal unicorn could perform. He, however, was very shy about his own voice thinking that his singing wasn't that good. Despite that Woody had made plans to perform on stage for the audience. Needless to say, he was scared.

"I don't know mom... What if they don't like it... What if I can't control my magic and some pony gets hurt because of me..." Woody said to Fluttershy not meeting her soft gaze due to his own fear "Then I'll have ruined everything..."

Fluttershy, who was the main reason the other 3 were avoiding the crowds, smiled at her son "You'll do great Woody. I know you think something's going to go bad but I have faith you can do it." She reassured

"Remember, We talked about it. If your magic starts to build up and gets uncontrollable then start up a light show or expel it in a way that will 'impress' the other ponies, which is much easier than you think." Discord added before stating "Even if you do something that could get somepony hurt I'll make sure no one does."

Woody smiled at the two "I'll do my best. It's going to be a little before I preform... I think I'll be ready by then."

Unknown pony: "This is getting interesting" a nearby pony says to them self quietly.

Unbeknownst to the family of Chaos and Kindness, a certain pony had been following them ever since they arrived in the city.

Hiding behind pot plant after pot plant, in bush after bush, and in every chimney down the street, this very nosy pony was trying to listen to their conversations without their knowing.

As time went by there was unfortunately nothing left to hide in or behind so this pony decided to buy a massive cone of cotton candy from a nearby stand, and ominously followed them at every turn.

Due to a lack of sight, they accidentally step on Discords tail and trip over causing themselves to be completely engulfed in an avalanche of delicious strawberry flavored sugaryness.

Napier Flight stood on the deck of the Eurus as it moored to the Canterlot skyport. The ship was bedecked with Equestrian banners, with a huge flag was suspended beneath the hull, whilst Napier himself was wearing his dress uniform complete with medals and a rapier surrendered to him by a Gryphon officer.

"General Flight, you're wanted in the palace at your earliest convenience," Captain Sentry said, a messenger in a royal tabard standing next to him with an expectant expression.  

"Thank you captain, I shall be along directly," General Flight answered, spending a moment longer watching the fireworks explode over the city, "Keep things in order, I'll have the Eurus relieved as soon as I've briefed Nimbus," he continued. Captain Sentry gave a quick smile of thanks along with his official acknowledgement - they'd been patrolling the boarder of what had once been the Gryphon Kingdom for the past six months, and the crew was eager for shore leave during Equestria's biggest party.

Flash Sentry was a fellow Boarder Campaign veteran, and one of Flight's most reliable officers, whilst Emerald Nimbus was Flight's new second in command - he hadn't served with her before, but she had distinguished herself during anti-piracy operations in the Badlands and had served nearly as long as he had. Her ship, the Phoenix, would be taking over from the Eurus whilst she underwent maintenance and her crew was on leave. But before Flight could rubber stamp the handover, he apparently had an appointment at the palace at his 'earliest convenience'. He set off at a brisk walk.

The Canterlot Skyport was especially full of ships today most of which being military vessels and citizens transport vessel for those ponies seeking joy in the Friendship Festival.

Another ship bearing the official emblem of Las Pegasus had just arrived. Two very highly distinguished ponies walked of the ship as it docked. No other two ponies could have quite a concerning grin like the ones those two have always carried on their faces. It was none of other than the Co-majors and the highly accomplished and dominating entrepreneurs of the city, the Flim-Flam brothers.

They noticed upon the deck of their parking neighbor a very well decorated Equestrian General, and without hesitation they lifted their hats in greeting.

Flim: "Why hello there General. If I am not mistaken, you are the pony that has been leading Equestria in the recent conflicts against the Griffon Kingdom".

Flam: "Indeed. I believe your name is Napier Flight, yes? You must tell us of you exploits."

While they speak, four more ships from Las Pegasus dock adjacent to theirs and begin unloading hundreds of crates of all shapes and sizes. It's no doubt that those two opportunists are planning on using the festival to expand their famous economic empire.

@Star48955

Techno was having fun talking a day off his job that day. He was wearing his massive five meter long cape that had magical properties. He was even doing neon object shows above him to test the spells for it and to entertain the others. He then accidentally toggled a spell that spawned a massive five meter long hooded cape on Moon who was nearby. Moon's new cape had magical properties like Techno's cape plus it was black with a purple boarder outline. Techno then looked in her direction with a startled face... 

@Star48955

At the South of the city, there were a few thousand ponies finding their way to the city. What was only imagined as a visit of an added audience, became what could only be compared to a migration.

To the East of this area was a smaller group of ponies from Baltimare travelling Westward alongside the side the river to reach the city gates

A family of 4 ponies among the travelling group of a few hundred notices Techno's magic drawing a small crowd on their path. The family walks up to him and the father of the family comes asks: "Hi there, are you planning on entering the Magic competition at the Festival? You seem to be really good."

The wife then says to her husband: "Honey, we're already late. We have to get to the city before Princess Celestia starts the opening ceremony."

@Der Kerzenwaechter

A few kilometers down stream the coming Seaponies with their Leader and Equestrian military escort.

Two large contingents of 3000 troops each were marching on either side of the river in column formation, while roughly a thousand Seaponies were swimming up the river in between them. The Seaponies have with them an underwater convoy made of minerals exclusive to the Seaquestrian ocean floor containing their gift to the Capitol State.

At the front of the Seaponies was a royal submersible water chariot upon which the current king of Seaquestria sat. His name is Rip Tide, the stepson of the ex-queen Novo and stepbrother to princess Skystar. His reputation as an accomplished reformist and to some extend a military leader in a few recent conflicts against the Dragonlands, have earned him the reputation of a King who won't be stopped when protecting and growing his world.

Alright guys. I've got some updates for you.

1) The boss Bright Shinning is now live in the Arena of Champions and is ready for challengers (now that her picture and character song have been added).

2) I will be adding a map of Equestria to the OOC threads main post with your OC's locations on it, along with other locations of interest in the play.

3) All role players have been updated with their activity tags in the main OOC post.

4) If you guys have theme songs/tunes for your characters yet, could you please post links to them so that when encounters happen IC to your  OC's I can set it up nicely with your opponent and their song as well?

5) For convenience for all of us, I will be adding to the OOC main post certain days of the week that I will be responding to posts IC that need responses from me. Before I do however, I would like to ask  you guys on what days of the week (pick 2-3 days) that you would like for me to be doing my weekly responses? I will setup the times when all of you have made your suggestions so that I can make it work for every pony as much as possible.

No no. I'll set it up. I'll make a new one, and anyway that's if he wants to do it.

@General Solar Magus

I've finished the magic theory, I have it on my about me page. If you got any questions just pm me and I'll answer as well as edit it to make it clearer.

And just to be certain, Heathlife is starting in his tower... prison, and then he gets to go out as they want to see if it helps him be more... friendly to others. Sounds about right, yea?

Hi rolle.

I read the magic theory you came up with.

I like some of the concepts you put into it, but the thing is that I had already an idea on how magic works and was going to mention that in a soon to come post. 

I do have a resolution though. How about I send you my concepts in a PM, and we can discuss more details from there after you've read mine? 

Are you only going to post once this stuff is sorted?

13 hours ago, Techno Universal said:

Now this could be very interesting between your OC and my OC Techno as Techno has his own theories of magic plus he had a theory about all magic being different values of a universal type of magic called digital magic. So later in the RP he will try to create forms of AI with digital magic so he's also at some point going to come up with digital magic computers. But the computers are very far off from now and Techno of course will return to his lab in the tower when he's done at the major event in Cantralot!

@rolle

How about I add you to that PM chat too Techno?

@Star48955 @Techno Universal @Der Kerzenwaechter

I am detecting a minor disturbance within the near future in your area.... 

I have not pinpointed what it is, but I would recommend that you three make your OC's tread with caution. I will tell you if I find anything more.

Signing off to resume scanning........

Alright everypony, the launch is officially live!!!!

The War for Equestria has launched and the greatest story in Equestrian history has begun!!

Enjoy the play, and enjoy having fun with your fellow roleplayers .

I have plenty fun for you and challenges for your OC's planned, so get a move on because you've got exploring to do .

Welcome........ to the WAR FOR EQUESTRIA!!!!

And of course no launch for anything mlp based is complete without the famous mlp intro :

The time is now at 25 years after the first friendship festival, and the 26^th annual friendship festival is about to begin.

The annual friendship festival is a big day of celebration for Equestria as it signifies the unity of all of the states of the enormous nation. Every friendship festival celebrates a different state, and this year the state of Seaquestria is finally getting its turn after the last 24 years since joining Equestria.

Once arrived, thousands of Seaponies will join the residents of Canterlot and other guests in a grand and glorious day. The leader of Seaquestria will also be giving a speech in honour of the occasion, and the Seaponies are bringing with them a secret gift to bestow upon their fellow capital state.

On this day, the hustle and bustle of Canterlot has never been so joyous. The excitement is in the air and everypony is talking about all of the things that they plan to do that the event has to offer. From the pools in the streets and in the air, to the grant concert of singers, to the grant magic research reveal by the Tower of Sorcery, to the party games, to the sales stands of all kinds, and much more.

It is now morning, and Princess Celestia has recently raised the sun to spark this fine day. Canterlot is ready for the big celebration and all is about to begin.

Ponies who have been travelling from other parts of Equestria for the event are beginning to arrive at the gates of the city, but only beginning to as many are still to come including the Seaponies of Seaquestria from the river connected to Horseshoe Bay alongside their Equestrian military escort marching at the rivers side’s.

The residents of Cantelot are already enjoying themselves in the pools, and other activities are ready to begin at their given times during the day.

For the current time, the city is a little bit quiet aside from the occasional cannonball splash, as the day is still opening up. However, that is just about to change.

Twighlight Sparkle, the founder and manager of the event since its founding walks up onto the stage setup in town square.

She speaks through the microphone and is broadcast to all the corners of the city:

“Hello everypony. It is I your princess of friendship Twighlight Sparkle, your proud host of this 25^th annual friendship festival that is about to take place. The event will officially start with a speech provided by our very own Princess Celestia later this morning. Until then, I hope that you all enjoy yourselves and have lots of fun. Thank you.”

She walks off. 

A pony in a brown cloak is seen arriving on the DJ perch placed atop the stage roof with a lot of equipment.

They put everything in its place.

They plug in their equipment.

They put on their headphones.

.

.

The pony suddenly pulls their cloak off to be revealed at the legendary Equestrian DJ Vinyl Scratch.

Without hesitation, she’s begins the first song and kickstarts what is about to be the biggest party in Equestrian history.

A roar of cheer surges through the city and the fun truly begins.

IC:

OOC:

Arena of champions Mini-game: 

Twighlight 2.0: "Hello role players, and welcome to my laboratory. My name is Twighlight 2.0."

"I am a robot sent from Equestria's future designed to assist you role players on your journey throughout the "The War for Equestria: The Musical!!" role play story ."

"I will be assisting you all by giving you information on bosses and other threats that your OC's may encounter during their adventure, hopefully before the threats arrive. I am designated to continuously scan for threats and relay my findings to you as soon as I receive them."

"I will also be providing you reports on any other important information that I can find that you may need before guiding your OC's further."

List of role players with access to my laboratory:

1) @Star48955

2) @Maple Bat

3) @Techno Universal

4) @Der Kerzenwaechter

5) @rolle

6) @)o( Dream Walker )o(

7) @Once In A Blue Moon

8) @C. Thunder Dash

"Note: I have denied access to the DM @General Solar Magus. I don't like him because he control's the threats that I scan for and that you fight" ().

Here is an example of how I shall assist you role players:

I have now saved within my database a copy of the invitation that your OC's received for an up and coming event in the story.

"Do no forget role players, that while my primary function is to support you in your OC's journey's, I am capable of multi-tasking and would gladly have you come visit my lab for a chat, experiments, or any other reason you desire."

I wake up.

I am in an empty universe. There is nothing in it but me.

I see only a white floor, and a white sky that goes on into infinity.

I stand up, I look around, and I feel.... something, some kind of magic.

I instinctively lift my hoof into the air.

Suddenly, a small rift opens where I waved my hoof.

“Did I do that?” I say with my calm voice.

Seconds later, another spirit pony comes out of that rift. They look different to how I look.

“Hello, what is your name?”

They told me their name.

I instinctively say: “Let’s make you a home.”

I wave my hoof again, and a small house appears.

“I think I’m getting the hang of this.”

I wave my hoof a third time, and many more rifts open, followed by many new ponies with varying faces.

I smile and continue.

My magic begins to conjure more buildings, hills with grass and flowers, lakes and mountains with snow tops.

After time, a small group of ponies including you come to me from the city and you ask:

“What is all this?”

I reply:  ”I am making a whole new world, just for you” and I smile at you.

“By the way, I am happy that you came to me. I have something that I would like you to do”.

“This new world will face many trials, and I need a brave group of spirits to help me protect it.”

Another asks: “Protect from what?”

I reply: “To protect it from uninteresting things. This world is made of many things from beautiful to scary. Everything here is made of something special, and I need all of you to make sure that everything stays special. Make sure that nothing becomes dull or grey.”

I smile at you and the group.

I raise my voice so the whole group:

“I am going to make this world a physical form, and when I do, I am going to send all of you to it”.

“You are the guardians. Find a way to protect the world from the grey if it ever shows up”.

I finish creating the physical realm.

“I have finished creating the physical realm, and I have conjured physical bodies for each of you within it..

I pause for a second.

“My friends”.

“Now you must go”.

“I will help you as much as I can, but the grey will come for me first.”

“Until we meet again. Stay safe.”

I open a portal that can take you and the rest of the group to the physical realm.

Suddenly.....  a massive surge of magical energy rips through the nearby mountains.

The white sky turns grey, and the buildings start to become flimsy, and fall.

“You must go now. Protect the physical realm from the grey, and I will protect the spirit realm form it. GO!” I shout.

The others jump through the portal, and before you do, you notice the ground turning grey and it spreads from the ground to my hoofs, ...... and it begins to cover my body.

.

.

Before it covers my head, I turn my head and smile at you before you go through.

You go through to begin your story....

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

You find yourself and the others in a magical tunnel surging through a black realm. at rapid speed.

The tunnel splits up and you watch it take you and the others in different directions.

Everyponies tunnels begin to travel down and make you feels like you are dropping fomr the sky.

You fall....

....

You fall faster.....

....

Faster!....

....

And faster!!....

....

Suddenly you hit the end of the tunnel before you notice it....

You feel a little bit weak from the journey. You then notice that you are now in your promised body and that it is already living a life that you don’t know about.

The spirit @Star48955 is inhabiting the body of Crystal Moonlight.

The spirit @Maple Bat is inhabiting the bodies of both Maple Bat and Woodland Orchestra.

The spirit @Techno Universal is inhabiting the body of Techno Universal.

The spirit @Der Kerzenwaechter is inhabiting the bodies of both Wavecrash Trifold and Morph Objective.

The spirit @rolle is inhabiting the body of Heathlife.

The spirit @)o( Dream Walker )o( is inhabiting the body of Alexandria Charge.

The spirit @Once In A Blue Moon is inhabiting the body of General Napier Flight.

The spirit @C. Thunder Dash is inhabiting both the bodies of Thundy and Chelsea

 The grey spirit @General Solar Magus is inhabiting both the bodies of General Solar Magus and Comet Dust.

“Hello....”

A disembodied voice speaks to you.

“You are now in a realm called Equestria. You must learn of the lives of the bodies that you inhabit.”

“Watch what they do, learn what they learn.”

“Keep them safe by guiding them in their story, and they will keep you safe by staying strong.”

“One day, you and your bodies might face the grey.”

“Good luck.....” the voice trails into quiet.

.

.

.

For the first time you try to look through the eyes of your body. You see the sky, and the ground. You smell the air, and you notice that your body is already going on with it’s life. You look into the bodies memories, and learn of their life until now.

You are now ready to stand with your host against the great trials ahead....

Good luck and don’t forget.

Don’t forget.

Ahh, I see.

Well, I'm still crunching things together as we speak, so I don't think it'll be ready in the next hour. However, I am working on it till it gets posted now (I'm currently sitting on top of my bunk bed at 9:45PM typing out the big intro XD, as well as getting other stuff ready).

@Techno Universal Before school in the morning. What time is it for you Techno? XD

@Star48955 @Maple Bat @Techno Universal @Der Kerzenwaechter @rolle @Celestial Flight @Once In A Blue Moon @C. Thunder Dash.

Alright guys, hold on to your hay. The launch will occur in a few hours .

The universe has yet to be created, please wait........

I'm straight as well.

If love was something you could carry, I would break my back trying to bring it all to you .

On 13/10/2017 at 5:34 PM, Der Kerzenwaechter said:

Given the great amount of water in Canterlot for the event, Wavecrash Trifold would be in one of the pools, relaxing.

Morph Objective would be wherever the main party is. I'd like to know if any of the other players would like to have Morph stick around them - he isn't much of a dynamic character alone, only when he's with somepony else. If nobody's up for Morph being with them, then perhaps he could be near one of the canon characters?

Sounds like a plan .

On 13/10/2017 at 5:53 PM, Techno Universal said:

Yeah more specifically Techno was actually going to start in the castle gardens!

On 13/10/2017 at 6:00 PM, Star48955 said:

And Moon is going to start walking along the outside of Canterlot.

And if your okay with it, then I also had an idea in the PM for her to start talking to Techno.

'A crowd of ponies pass by, and she asks what is going on. After being told, she decides to follow them to the festival. She passes by the gardens, and Techno accidently spawns a cape on bher. She is confused, and her and Techno start talking.'

On 13/10/2017 at 6:16 PM, Techno Universal said:

Yes there's the idea I would actually really like to go with! Like when Techno spawns the cape he will be waking up from a nap as he would probably start the RP by waking up from sleeping on a bench in the Cantralot gardens!

Nice to see you guys making some interaction plans for you OC's. That's gonna be really cool.

On 13/10/2017 at 7:32 PM, Maple Bat said:

Alright so for the performance I was going to post a song. (Course I could do something else.) It'll be something with no lyrics since Woody doesn't like to sing lyrics only melodies. I haven't decided what song I was gonna use yet as well 

It was intended to be a family thing. The 4 of them usually don't 'go out' to do things Because A: Maple's Appearance B: 2 Dragonequus (Dragonequi?) C: Fluttershy's Shyness. At least that's the way I see thins anyhow. I'd imagine Discord would have convinced Fluttershy to by saying Woody was going to perform. (OR something I've got a while before it starts to settle most of the finer details)

Posting a song. That would be epic. If you want to do that then go for it. Im keen . Whatever your other idea, I'm also open to it.

Perhaps there could be performances of other kinds as well like acting, or tricks etc. Any pony interested, just lete know and I'll male it happen for you .

Nice to see that you've put thought into their family outing. A little extra detail goes a long way .

Not forgetting though that Fluttershy is comfortable in crowds, just not just with brash interactions with others. Also, Fluttershy always goes where her friends go. However, it will be a party so perhaps she won't be too comfortable with that either XD.

Whatever before hand plans you got, let me know if you wanna use them .

On 13/10/2017 at 9:26 PM, Once In A Blue Moon said:

I was planning for General Flight to start in the castle.

@Techno Universal, Flight has some fairly new airships to play with - I'm not entirely clear if technology is Techno's thing or not, but if so technical support and impromptu upgrades would be appreciated for them and would be a link between the two characters. This goes for any other character with a tech background as well. Likewise anyone with a rank who is part of the command structure has reason to interact with him.

On 13/10/2017 at 9:32 PM, Techno Universal said:

Well yeah I am planning to have Techno doing work on digital magic technology and that's basically computers that are super powerful that are powered by magic. Anyways Techno would probably be working with Flight later in the RP after the opening scene!

On 13/10/2017 at 9:37 PM, Once In A Blue Moon said:

@Techno Universal Got it. I was thinking more of an excuse for them to know each other prior to the events of the RP, and as someone Flight would turn to if he had a tech problem.

On 13/10/2017 at 9:41 PM, Techno Universal said:

Plus also in the RP Techno would of been using Flight's airships as test subjects for testing his digital magic technologies prior to the RP so they would very well know each other.

More OC character links. Very nice . Let me know if you need any help setting it up .

I dont have a name, but ive got a bunch of words that may help you in making the name.

Dynamo, Express, Flex, Flow, Gust, and Rust (dont know why I said the last one, it just felt cool XD).

My party will be at the psychiatric ward. Dont be late because Ghandi, the delivery man, and Mona Lisa are coming too.

Oh my. lol XD

Its because I saw the Hercules animated movie recently .

4 hours ago, Techno Universal said:

Okay so Techno would basically be the same to the original RP! Anyways this time he would have his slight quirk with being interested in massive capes plus he would also be starting in Cantralot taking a day off from his job plus I was thinking that he might be with @Celestial Flight's OC Alexandra in the RP and that's if my friend thinks it's a good idea!   

Awesome stuff. Sounds like a plan. You said you were starting in the Castle gardens correct? The castle itself is away from the event (which is happening in the city). rolle, one of my 2 OC's, and maybe Once will be starting in the castle as well, so you have potential interactions if you'd like to start there.

59 minutes ago, Maple Bat said:

@General Solar Magus

Actually, I said before that the sibling would be together, well they would still be around each other but I had another Idea.

Woody could be there to perform as a singer since there's a stage set up, He has wanted to sing for an audience for a long time but he's nervous about doing so since he could accidentally start using his magic and cause something

 Maple could just be there for recreation since it's during the day so there'd be no reason for her to be on duty. (Unless the festival laster into the night) So maple could be encouraging Woody to sing for the others

Thoughts?

I do remember you saying that they would be together, I'm just looking to see if there was maybe anything you wanted ontop of that.

I like the idea of Woody performing. How would you like to go about doing this? Another roleplayer is also planning on performing, and I'm thinking of throwing in some of the cannons as well for some fun in between performances.

My only other thoughts on it is what will you be having Fluttershy and Discord do? I remember you saying it was a family outing type thing? If you want, I can also have my OC Comet Dust start near you like in the original boot?
