Casual Stroll - An Introductionary RP mainly around Equestria OOC [Open Entry For All]

[Blitz Boom 4,627]

@Battenberg

Hello there, and thank you for the interest. ^^

I'll address something quickly before going to the bio: I know it can be difficult to just slide into an ongoing RP, which is why I'm more than willing to just begin with your char on easier grounds to the side, then eventually direct you towards the rest of thing. It tends to help the more unsure ones and those who doesn't want to read a 100 pages of RP.

Anyway, the character looks good. ^^ You're in.

It says she's in a baking shop in Mahehattan, yes? Would you prefer for it to start there then by chance? I have somepony I might be able to use for that called Circle Pop. She haves a candy store in Ponyville, but travels around to try new tastes and see what's what. Could easily be she had been in Manehattan for something and passed by a particularly intriguing baking shop. :3

=====================================================================

 

@Little Snowdrop

Hey, forgot to mention, I kinda need your confirmation on if I should proceed as suggested before I do so. I'll make some time to make one tomorrow for you if that is.

My posts may be a bit delayed.  I'm leaving for Bronycon in the morning and won't be back until Monday.  There is the slight chance I'll find time to post from my phone while I'm there though.

That could work quite nicely, two sweet store owners could get on well.

[Little Snowdrop 296]

Has anyone here a suggestion how to name a village full of scientists who want to find out how the world and especially magic works? 'Cause I still need a name for the village Steampunk Gear and Floating Matter live in...

[Blitz Boom 4,627]

@Little Snowdrop

I don't know. Plenty of names you can think about if it is, I'm sure. Vision Village or something focusing on their ideals to look forward?

An issue though we need to address. Since you said it was fine if I started in the city, that is exactly where I began everything, not in a forest on the way there. I can correct it easily so they are in a fitting place, but please, remember where others are the next time, okay?

Also, wanting to ask. Since you have a town of scientists as well, what's your thoughts on that one, and Center Zero knowing eachother? Might be in a rivalry sort of way, or in somewhat friendly terms, but I can imagine the findings both towns make and publish would catch the sight of at least some from the other eventually.

=================================================================================

 

@Battenberg

Nice. ^^ Word of warning though, I may have her significant other run along with as well. Depends on what mood strikes me when I start writing, since I don't usually plan too much in advance. A few pointers at best,t hen see where things go. ^^

===================================================================

 

@Seamore Sandwich

Have fun out there Seamore. ^^ I hope you have a truly awesome time, and that you remember to take pictures. Would be cool to see a few snippets of how it were for ya.

Sry, I thought you meant that they were on the way towards the village, but not yet there... D:

Well, that's a great idea... maybe they can cooperate with each other and exchange informations about their research projects and results or something like that... I think that a rival sort of way wouldn't make much sence, since Molotov wouldn't come to Vision Village (I actually like this name ) then, would he? They also could use some communication technology a few scientists of the two towns could habe invented... I think there is indeed some potential!

 

Well, back to the "spot issue": I have seen a RP forum where at the beginning of every post they write down a short mark where they begin their post (or where their last one ended), and at the end of it they write down the name (or a little description) of the place where the scene ends. Maybe that could be helpfull to avoid such problems in the future...

[Midnight_Aurora 571]

@Blitz Boom, @Amys-pmvs, @Widdershins,

Actually @Widdershins, Delta's strengths is also her limiting factor. And not really. Normally, her sight is magical and Daredevilish in nature. It's her go to sight type. However, there is normally too much magic for her to see properly with it.

@Blitz Boom, as for the experiment thing, Delta's personality world of had her turn him over to the guard at first chance.

@Amys-pmvs, I thank you on that. I love to flesh out all aspects of my OCs to a basics and then go from there.

 

@Blitz Boom, as for the AU thing. That's actually how she would have ended up on cannon Equestria. One of her mom's newest inventions backfire while they were working on it and sends Delta into another dimension.

[Blitz Boom 4,627]

@Midnight_Aurora

I'm gonna have to ask you to say that first sentence towards me again, because I have no idea what you were trying to say mate. Best bet I have is *Delta's personality would have caused her to be turned over to the guards at first sight* but I can't say for sure. Sorry. :/

Also, if that is the case, I haev really lost track of something. What about her personality would get her locked up?

And to finish it off: Accidentally being torn away and into another dimension. Works like a charm. :3

[Amys-pmvs 432]

@Blitz Boom Admin: ok i finally came up with a character with a backstory.

 

Princess Moonlit Midnight: (in royal voice) GREETINGS!!! 

I AM A ZEBRA/CHANGELING HYBRID HENTS WHY I HAVE NO HOLES.

MY DADDY WAS A ZEBRA WHO MADE LOVE TO THE QUEEN OF THE HIVE.

QUEEN MOMMY SAID I WAS A ABOMINATION BEING PART ZEBRA AND BANISHED ME TO THIS SPOOKY FOREST.   

NO PONY RECENTLY WAS USING THE CASTLE OF THE TWO SISTERS SO I MOVED RIGHT IN. I PUT ON ONE OF THE CROWNS LAYING AROUND AND A PAIR OF CELESTA'S SHOES, AND NIGHTMARE MOONS NECKLACE, AND CALLED MY SELF PRINCESS SINCE NO ONE WOULD DARE TO COME IN TO THE FOREST. NOW I RULE OVER THE SPOOKY FOREST!!!!! I AM THE PRINCESS OF THE EVERFREE FOREST.

[Widdershins 9,959]

@Amys-pmvs    Seems kind of arbitrarily cruel to label somebeing else as a monstrosity when you yourself are already a giant, parasitic insectoid ungulate. Like, gosh golly darn there Queenie, your already muckin' about with another species, most likely unwillingly on their part, so what did ya think would happen?

  The self-proclamation of title is absolutely delicious though. Would imagine that anybeing organised enough to build a castle would think not to leave gold baubles behind, buuut they DID leave behind an entire castle so that neligence is totally on them, after all!

 She's hideous. I ADORE it! Love it! So what's her actual personality?

[Widdershins 9,959]

  In the realm of conjecture & theory, Dear @Blitz Boom, I'd be interested in piping up for that too.

  For one, it's always bothered me when OC makers attempt to instill a bit of ostracizing into the realm of Equestria. That's why its so popular, you know? That it's such a happy, euphoric utopia, after all. Sure, granted, every world has its dark corners but...               Anyway, there IS some precedent for the dragon-hate you've brought up too!

  I remember hearing of a MLP comic set in whatever parallel they have to New York. Where they have a whole Dragon District where all the local dragons hang out (and we get introduced into another female parallel to Spike!) and if that's not enough, there's a spat of arson going around town where the local pony police force immediately jumps to accusing the local dragons for and Spike and... think it was Luna? Have to clear up the confusion there for! Stands to reason too, that if you have 20-foot fire-breathing lizards around your town that the local law enforcers might give them the eye more than a few times!

 Despite what I said in my most recent post, I do doubt its hostilities bad enough where anypony would raise objections. I mean... granted, Spike DID go all Godzilla on Ponyville once but... uhh... that's in the past?

 

  Oh, but more importantly: I don't know how you plan to do Ambie's parents. I kind of have this feeling that I want them to show up unannounced. He sends the letter and they immediately get there the next morning. Buuut... that would then mean that nopony would be there to pick them up  and then I don't see how then we could connect that back around to your Happy Hour. I feel the important part is for Ambie to be as caught as off guard as anypony else would. That sort of "The Relatives Showing Up Unnanounced" trope you see in family drama movies, you know?

   Heh...  I forget if I've brought this up before...

Ambie's important to me too. He's kind of my ponysona. You do let me know if it ever seems like Widdershins's story starts holding import over his. Kind of see him as an antithesis to my Mr. Wild n' Crazy Guyses. He's kind of my own take on a male Fluttershy!

 

  Oh! And speaking of species theory!...  I think Trolls are totally a thing in Equestria too! Despite being humanoid! Had one show up in a comic book, and we do have the Grundles after all...             Come to think about the world expanding in the movie what with Abyssina, the land of cats, I'm surprised I'm not seeing more Sphinx Ocs too!

[Blitz Boom 4,627]

@Amys-pmvs

Functional, but tone down the caps lock a bit please. You can just go with her having a generally booming voice since caps lock text doesn't look too good in the long run.

Like were said by @Widdershins, I think there wouldn't be much around, but perhaps if you rummaged around the place in particularly dangerous and rocky places, there might be some rubble where you could find a somewhat dinged up and old pair of shoes and a crown. The Nightmare Moon stuff is pretty much impossible though, considering she were sent to the moon a little after transforming, but you could just go with her proclaiming that one of Luna's old necklaces were that, since it'd be mauled up a bit by time and potentially several pieces of the castle falling on top of it.

I'm going to have to need to know what sort of power you see her having though. With hybrids, it's one of those things I wanna make sure of before I accidentally allow somepony int hat will write their characters as a flawless god more or less. Trying to veer away from that.

==============================================================

 

@Widdershins

I consider Ponyville to have mixed feelings about dragons, considering the amount of weird stuff they have around there, and Spike. Would make it a little bit of a jaded situation, depending on the dragon, but in Kaltrop's case, I get the feeling that he's going to get some scattered greetings, act like a meanie about it, and then get ignore and/or questioned by a guard to what the issue is. They're unlikely to outright fear him. Not like he's a zebra after all. And I think the whole *Spike going bonkers* thing will make them more weary of larger dragons, but we'll see what happens when we get into town. I also got half a mind having Spicy introduce him as her pet, and ask somepony to point her towards a place where she can buy doggy treats.

As for the Ambie angle, I think he can wake up in the morning, then go and look at a letter he have written to send, then open the door to go towards the post office, and then get a massive shock as his mother stands outside, about to knock on his door. His father could be goofing off somewhere nearby, since it sounds like his way of doing things, or get distracted.

And in regards to how Happy would try to mingle into things, there's two ways he'll play it off. The first being that he's somepony who saw the weirdness going on with Ambie and figured he'd try to help him get to the bottom of things. The second being that he could also use his tried and true method of bonding with others: Booze. He is a traveling alcohol (and assorted beverages) salespony after all, and if Ambie's mother is high up, then some fine bourbon or whatnot would perhaps be a good ice breaker.

Happy is certainly not going to spit out that he's a changeling right off the bat, I can guarantee that. Not until he knows about Ambie's dad, and then only when it seems appropriate. He isn't the best as singling out changelings too, so if daddyling doesn't have anything obvious like, a lack of love energy around him (could be masked by being close enough to those who haves it I'd assume) Happy wouldn't know for sure. Happy himself should be easy enough to spot for him, if daddyling haves any experience with feeling out changelings that is.

Spoiler

  She is apart of the elite team for the princess.  The team keeps King Sombra suppressed,  makes it so nopony knows of a plan for a crime.  There is no fail and they will find you.

Nopony read that part it'll ruin the fun (except the people that add me to the role play, of course). Hello and I'd like to introduce my OC: Venus Bright.  Her main job is a theater actor.  I was gonna ask to play Pinkie Pie but it seems that somepony else took that role.  I am exceptional at writing in country, so AJ Would be a good role for me too.  If you'd like any more info on Venus Bright then message me.

  /Pout    But I want my Train Station Setting!  Lol!

 I suppose, the matter foremost is placement. Happy is a travelling salestallion after all. Putting aside his wishes to ditch town as fast as can be before trouble hits the fan about his reveal, at the least his cart would be parked some random, unassuming place in ponyville and he wouldn't have any need to be stalking around Sweet Apple Acres, right? 

  Getting them acquainted oughten't be too much of an issue. Parents be all like "I'm hunting down my errant child!" then all "Oh, I see you're also a changermaling too!" that whole shebang.

 And then Blitz Boom was ALL.

                           I've forgotten my topic. Again.

@Sun Ray

I just wanted to know that I noticed you there, and I have something to write in response, but I have been writing most of the day, it's night,a nd I need to work tomorrow, so I'll see if I can't make a response on the way to work, and we can get you sorted. (I like the AJ part though, just in advance. @Widdershins might be a link with the Apple family if it came to that)

[cwhip9 1,078]

Finaly  kicks open the coffen door,a batpony with a red and white mane yawns and trots out "so, whats a bat to do today?"

want to get back into the rp thought id post here o let others know of cresent the batpony a batpony living in the evefree woods, was on here last year. Game to get back into writing with others again  

[Blitz Boom 4,627]

@Sun Ray

Sorry for the delay. Few people were sick at work so I was busy keeping up.

Anyway, it's nice to meet you, and welcome to our little slice of Equestria. ^^ If you could tell more about your OC that would be good, but I like that she's a theater pony. Only had a few of those before, and they just seemed to vanish into thin air after a few weeks for some reason. Here's hoping we can keep your interest.

I would prefer if you would write info on your OC here, instead of in a PM if possible, since it allows everypony to see who you are, and perhaps pop in with ideas and invitations to join them in some mayhem/talk/whatever in the RP. I am ready to step if it is, but anypony who'll join in on it or say that another would fit well in their part of the RP is even better. Can get interesting that way. ^^

Anyway, moving ahead a little too much. Some OC information, pretty please? Oh, and if you could give an example of talking country if you wanted to pick up AJ that would be nice too. It's been a while since I saw anyone write in that style, and I get curious. :3

Welcome back mate, it's been awhile.

Venus is a little goofy and cleaver with her actions and she can compleatly shift her personality at will with ease.  Her true personality is (as I said) goofy but not random. Sorta like spider man.  She has a peach red mane and yellowish brown coat.

Also Pinkie Pie has agreed to give up her space in my head and let AJ give it a shot.  So Apple Jack, how do you feel. Uhh, I'm feelin like Pinkie Paie made yer mind a lill too ... how should I say it ... a little to Pinkie Paie.  Really? Hmm, I like it *giant candy cane flys bye*  Anyways, hiya Blitz!  I hope I'm a talkin like I'm s'post too, and I'm hopin that you pick Sun Ray to do me.  Have a nace day now!

[cwhip9 1,078]

@Blitz Boom thanks bro  (cue distant explosion)

well getting past that was fun I was half expecting discord to show up during that.

im thinking of starting him in the forrest like usual for cresent to see if anypony is near their sound good?  

[Blitz Boom 4,627]

@cwhip9

Awh, and here I thought you were gonna pick up where we left. Oh well, start it when ready and we'll see who may bite. I'll leave it to the whim of the moment. ^^

===============================================================================

 

@Sun Ray

Looks good with AJ. ^^ Consider her yours.

As for Venus, do you have a visual perhaps? A description will suffice if a creator program couldn't do her justice. Rest looks good, and I think I know how to involve the theater if nopony else takes you up on this.

I got two higher ranking ones in Canterlot that might go there, but is currently without a bios. I'm waiting until they solve the issues with the formatting on those before I make more.

Clayton Quartz, owner of a rather large building company, and a known face in the Equestrian gem trade at times. He's not a noble, just pretty well off, and he gets nervous when there's enough stress. Might be enough reason for him to go to the theater, where he could meet your char if it were.

This here is Scarcity. Owner of a prestigious antique store in Canterlot, and legally that is where her income and wealth comes from. She also haves more shady dealings on the black market, but she makes sure that doesn't affect her daily life. She would be around the theater now and again for some light entertainment, and she occasionally finds interest in a pony, that she will engage in conversation. A lovely mare to speak with by all accounts, and influential if that's needed eventually. She will also be accompanied by her body guard at times. A former Royal Guard pegasus called Brick Wall.

Also, I try to show her shoes and necklace as being silver, but I'm not always good with colors. So sorry in advance if it isn't that. The gem is a Sapphire.

Well she lives in canterlot mainly and if you read the secret description you would understand why.  She often travels around Equestria, for the Princess investigating crimes.  Whenever the Princess calls, Venus takes action.  She is an earth pony so pegasie and unicorns often under estimate her at first, but distraction and acting are her close friends.  When she's off call she usually works in the theatre business.  I can see Scarcity not getting along very well with her being that she has interactions with the black market. 

I can't believe I forgot to put in her race.

She has many friends but most are in other towns.  Her other hobbys are archery and eating different kinds of food.  

Is that good because if you need more I'll just message you I feel like I'm spamming.

[Blitz Boom 4,627]

@Sun Ray

I honestly didn't know what to think of the hidden part, so I sort of forgot it. Whoops?

Anyway, you would be amazed how little Scarcity cared about being around law enforcement or investigators of any kind. She knows she can't be linked with the black market through any kind of evidence, as she is careful how she does thing, and she keeps her wares for that market incredibly well hidden. As far as can be proven, she is simply an antique dealer with a few rumors here and there among the more paranoid. Still, if Venus subscribe to the few who thinks there is something without being able to prove it, I can see there being some friction. Likely not lessened by Scarcity taking stabs about the lack of evidence.

Sounds like Clayton and his assistant is the better fit then. They're all over Equestria at times, as some he needs to work with requires that he is there personally, he finds some news about a particular kind of gem that have surfaced that might rise in value soon, or he's being forced to try and relax by his assistant, under the logic that he is stressing too much about things. Same reason he might be in a theater.

Is that sounding more lik the thing you had in mind? Oh right, and I should likely post his assistant here too.

Belladonna Venin. She is a good pony at heart, but she can be overly analytical of things. She haves a monocle on because she haves a problem with her right eye, and because I wanted to give her one.

The bag she carries holds different kind of things, including small, needle.like glass containers, holding a few drops of home-made toxin each. Nothing deadly, but enough to incapacitate in a few ways, depending on the concoction.

What can I say, she's protective. And perhaps a bit paranoid, but she doesn't attack first. Long as you don't attempt to like, toss a boulder at Clayton, she is unlikely to use these.
