Ashbad 968 Posted March 27, 2012 Share Posted March 27, 2012 (edited) Quest for the Dragon's Treasure Roleplay About: Hello, everypony, I'm here today to show to you a quest at hand, in which 5 ponies and myself (I will be playing as DM and as a player), will risk everything we hold dear to partake in an adventure unparelleled. I introduce to you... the Quest for the Dragon's Treasure! 6 friends have heard stories of a treasure in a far away land, that is so magnificient that it cannot be described in words. They decide one day to set out and retrieve it for themselves and Ponyville, against the direct orders of Princess Celestia to not seek it out. They soon hear that this treasure is located in the land of darkness and evil outside of Equestria, inhabited by horrible creatures, dark beings, and above all a huge, fiercesome dragon that guards the treasure keep personally. The 6 will adventure throughout Equestria and the lands beyond, putting everything they hold dear at risk, being ambushed by baddies and chased down by Celestia's special forces team. The journey is perlious ahead of these 6 ponies, filled with danger, learning, and fun... the only question is, are you up to the challenge? This roleplay is unlike others in that it has a midway and final set of goals, that being, 1. Survive, 2. Retrieve the treasure, 3. return to Ponyville with it and prosper. While I assure that these goals are very far ahead into the roleplay to complete, once they are fulfilled, the roleplay is considered "won", or "ended". As I noted above, I will be playing as both Dungeon Master and as a player, specifically my database character "Ashjack". I am going to make sure that being both roles in this game will not affect how well my character turns out through this, nor the type of obstacles to affect the team. I'll be doing all DM playing in BOLD, BLUE text, and playing as Ashjack in normal text, to avoid confusion. As I said above, there are 6 ponies total, but since I'm already signed up, I'm looking for 5 more. I'll make sure you qualify for this game by checking your character's database entry personally, but you can guess your eligibility pretty easily by looking at the drafted rules below [subject to change before roleplay actually begins] Rules: - All characters must be of Unicorn, Pegasus, or Earth Pony species -- no Alicorns, unless I give an exception at request. - No "Mary Sue" characters; only characters with virtues *and* vices and a rich, dimensional history and profile can participate. - I'm not planning on allowing "Mane 6" characters to participate, but if you can make a good argument for it, I may allow one or two. - Any breaking of obstacles without the action of the DM, or trolling the game, will lead to immediate ejection and replacement with another signup. - No OOC discussion in the roleplay thread. - Please make all posts at least 3 sentences long; longer would be preferred, but I would like detailed gameplay. Also, don't make more than 8 posts a day, to keep the game from going too fast. - Have fun, of course. Current Players: 1. Ashjack -- http://mlpforums.com.../10454-ashjack/ -- ATTENDING 2.

Strafe 593 Posted March 27, 2012 Share Posted March 27, 2012 I'll join but you should probably set the tag to OOC instead of searching because you have a good idea of what you want to do.

Arylett Charnoa 4,916 Posted March 27, 2012 Share Posted March 27, 2012 If a thread is accepting sign-ups at any point, it's an OOC thread. I've changed the prefix according. Searching threads are only for vague concepts, not fully-fleshed out RPs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coal 26 Posted March 27, 2012 Share Posted March 27, 2012 This seems interesting, if I can think of a decent character I'll get it written up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashbad 968 Posted March 28, 2012 Author Share Posted March 28, 2012 This seems interesting, if I can think of a decent character I'll get it written up. Sure! I'd love to have a full game roster. I'll join but you should probably set the tag to OOC instead of searching because you have a good idea of what you want to do. My OC: http://mlpforums.com...__fromsearch__1 If you want me to flesh out this character more I'll do it. Actually, that character seems fine; maybe expand upon the background a little, but it's pretty close to my expectations. Anyone else thinking of joining in?

OC-http://mlpforums.com...__fromsearch__1 Not bad at all! I'll add him to the roster, but since I'm slightly picky about that one-sentence background story, I'll ask you to lengthen it just a little bit if possible. If not, it'll be fine, he can develop his background throughout the game then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ashbad 968 Posted April 4, 2012 Author Share Posted April 4, 2012 So if he was as tall as Big Mac, that would be cool? Indeed! I'll add your character to the list in anticipation. hmm, I think this would be right up Ice Storm's Alley http://mlpforums.com/page/roleplay-characters/_/ice-storm-r68 Let me know what you think, and if anything needs to be altered slightly No edits needed, that is an excellent Roleplaying character. I shall add her to the list immeditately. And, I think we might be up to the 6 person list now! I will wait and make sure everyone who signed up still wants to participate, though.

Ice Storm 1,020 Posted April 4, 2012 Share Posted April 4, 2012 Okay, I have to ask. I know there is a posting minimum, but it's there a maximum post size? I have a habit of making very large, detailed posts. So I do have to ask this question. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a habit of making very large, detailed posts. So I do have to ask this question. Well, as long as it's split evenly (not a huge, 20-line paragraph), then yes, that's actually excellent. All right then let's have a roll call for those attending: All attending say I. Good idea. I'll multiquote all signed up brony's posts, to get their attention. They have a day to respond, or I'll shift them out and look for someone else. hmm, I think this would be right up Ice Storm's Alley http://mlpforums.com/page/roleplay-characters/_/ice-storm-r68 Let me know what you think, and if anything needs to be altered slightly http://mlpforums.com/page/roleplay-characters/_/nighttime-bliss-r45 Probably going to be rejected, but eh...

Ashbad 968 Posted April 5, 2012 Author Share Posted April 5, 2012 I say we start this RP on the coming Friday which is tomorrow. I'd love to do that, but first I must make sure that we do indeed still have a full roster of players who will be dedicated towards playing Let's hope we can meet the deadline of tomorrow, though.

Ashbad 968 Posted April 6, 2012 Author Share Posted April 6, 2012 Everyone who has already committed to still playing, what do you suggest I do with the two players that haven't say 'I' yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ice Storm 1,020 Posted April 6, 2012 Share Posted April 6, 2012 Send them a PM reminding them of the topic and asking if they are still interested or not. That we have enough to start as soon as they confirm they are still in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
