Well... how do you explain Vinyl's set up in a Canterlot Wedding? Seriously? She has a DJ set and Subwoofers.... what the heck..... that bugs me a bit considering that fact but I digress. If vinyl scratch can have that type of stuff then why not beat burst? just seems odd... I'm not trying to be rude or anything. I'm just saying.

@@BeatBurst,

 

Here's moderator @Fhaolan's input:

 

"Vinyl's DJ setup is actually consistent with 1960's technology, both in equipment and appearance. Subwoofers, 'scratching tables' and the like were all in use at that time. In fact, the two turntable setup was introduced into the US in 1955, after having been used in Europe for about ten years before that.

 

Skullcandy, on the other hand, is a brandname that was established in 2003."

 

Let's use that as a reference and say Equestrian technology does not advance past that, as Vinyl Scratch's equipment is the most "modern" technology you'll see on the show.

 

That being said, humans are least 59 years ahead of Equestria in terms of technology in general. That's a universe of difference!

 

TL;DR version - In this RP, Human technology trumps Equestrian technology. Deal with it!

 

And going off of @Pripyat Pony, backchatting the DM is an excellent way of killing your chances of joining a RP--not to mention attract a mod's attention.

So I want to apologize for taking so long to get my opening post done. Whenever a RP starts everything seems to conspire against me being able to post for it. A lot has happened with school and work. I won't make any more excuses and sincerely apologize for taking so long,

[BeatBurst 4]

Ok thank you for the information.... hmm.... thank you... Im going to go do a bit of research now. thanks for the info tho.

Backstory (A little more about your character):

 

  Reveal hidden contents

Été (Summer as she goes by now) was born in Couleur Terrai, a small town in in France ((Or prance...I kinda hate all these pony puns...)). She grew up in a small town speaking only French but took an interest in Equestria when a young mare and her father came to her small town on vacation. The town itself was rather...boring, but the surrounding landscape was like none other. On one side of the town you had mountains...on another it was a massive lake...on the other hills spanned on for miles with fields of flowers all sorts of colors.

It just so happened Summer chose to stay home from school to "help" run her fathers shop...which consisted of making sure all the food was bug free...she liked to wear paper hats and run around with a stick. However...this day was a little different. It just so happened that Summer decided to wander around near the herbs and spices section of her fathers organic food store when she walked straight into a mare. The two fell over but instantly became best friends...sadly Summer didn't know English, and this mare didn't know French, but that didn't stop the two from playing and hugging and chasing each other around the store. The mare's name was Rhythm Runner though due to the fact that Summer couldn't speak english...Summer decided to call this mare "Music".
The mare's father got to know Summer's parents and they became close friends, Summer and Rhythm were closer. They did everything together. Rhythm taught Summer English, summer taught Rhythm french, they were the best of friends...Rhythm didn't care that Summer was different. Summer is a hippogriff, a rather rare cross between Pony and Griffin...and she often got teased by the other kids for it, but she did her best to stay positive and focus on other things.

It was a few months later that Rhythm had to go back to Equestria, her father was a musician and he'd just finished touring around France.
Summer was hearbroken, but her parents assured her that they'd one day go visit Rhythm...it took quite some time.

Throughout the next two years, Summer focused on learning and getting better at English. During this she'd often go out for a fly in the mountains, reciting poems from famous Equestrian ponies, which was how she took an interest in the stars.

It was when she turned 10 (Two years after meeting Rhythm) she discovered her special talent...which she was very excited for. She'd often been worried that she wouldn't have one...as her father was a griffin, she knew griffins didn't get cutiemarks but there it was, clear as day.

In celebration, her mother bought her a large telescope, which she set up on the small balcony outside her room in the hills outside the small town.

She spent every clear night looking at the sky and when there were clouds, she'd fly instead. This went on for another year, throughout which she made a few friends (Not many though she could have if she really tried)...but none she had the same connection as she did with Rhythm.

Then...it happened. She turned 11 and her parents surprised her with a train ride that'd take them to Canterlot. If there was one thing more exciting then getting her cutie mark, it was getting onto the train to visit Rhythm with her mother.

The following weeks were...well...one way to put it, AMAZING! She learned so much more about ponies in Equestria and learned even more about Rhythm since they could finally understand each other...though in the recent months they had been chatting through letters, but that wasn't the same.

However...time went by so fast and it was only a few weeks later that Rhythm had to head back to Couleur Terrai...though before leaving, she made Rhythm a promise...she would one day move to Equestria.

Which is exactly what she did the day she turned 17 she and Rhythm (Who was 18 at the time) managed to buy an old...rather grungy house together. The two of them worked every day on fixing it up and finally, after a months work...it was finished.

Rhythm had become quite good at writing music and was actually rather famous...the same couldn't be said for Summer. Astronomy is something that...well...its a little difficult to get famous when you're into Astronomy.

However she did make a little bit of money here and there. She taught workshops and did manage to work with some weather teams around Canterlot, though her main focus was the night sky and flying, every day she'd push herself to go higher and higher till her body just couldn't take it.

Its been a year since she and Rhythm moved in together and though Summer's life isn't totally in order...she loves it.

Description of your human form (hair and eye color will remain the same): She's about 5'1 in height and weighs 138 lbs. She's quite tone and has the body type that one would assume she acquired through running or dancing...in reality it was flying that gave her her build. She also has rather large hands (Though they're still quite thin and soft) and very dexterous feet.

Cutie Mark: A celtic knot in the shape of a crescent moon with a star in the center. This represents Summer's love for the night sky. She studies the stars and loves anything to do with space...she hopes to one day go higher then any other creature in Equestria.

I was gonna post last night, but was otherwise preoccupied. Let's see if I can post tonight!

 

Anyhow, for those who are either getting there, or are there already: now's the time to put that curiosity into play!

 

Humans: what is it that you have that the Equestrians can get their new found hands on? You all have SOMETHING! Smartphones, laptops or PCs, tablets, firearms-- hell, silverware! Describe or list their belongings to the best of your ability!

 

Equestrians: Go to town! Going off of what I said last night, these creatures have at least 60 years on Equestrians when it comes to technology. That's a HUGE difference! Turn that curiosity on!

 

I hafta get back to work now, but I'll have more later!

Also! Summer speaks french. Her english is really good but when she gets panicked or something she naturally kinda returns to the language she's most comfortable with. When she does speak french throughout the RP should I post a translation or let people just translate it on Google Translate?
