No worries, things went along fine enough. Figured you read the post before that though, as it explained some things.

Short of the long: Angry sphinx in the desert, dragon came to seek help dealing with it, party being formed to go all Final Fantasy on the large feline.

@BloodDrops

Why would you look at that, a large piece of glass. So lucky that there's no sort of creature in Ponyville that can just magic up a large hammer and crack it open like a pinata. That would just be mighty annoying. Muahahahahaha!!!

*just makes another one instead*

Its a catch 22 scenario 

[Blitz Boom 4,724]

@BloodDrops

No idea what the catch reference is in regards to, but hey, bring on more glass. Not like it will make it any less entertaining for potential wackos with large hammers.

[Blitz Boom 4,724]

Everypony, heed my call! *blows a whistle*

Just a small message: I will have to be gone for the weekend for a family gathering. As such, I can't guarantee that I'll be able to get posts out tomorrow, and it might in fact have to stretch as far as to Sunday or Monday before I can get something down. I'll try to get something done though, Sunday latest, unless something happens.

[Blitz Boom 4,724]

@EQ_Theta

Just to be clear: None of the characters will have seen any kind of riddle from @BloodDrops Sphinx character, as they are all still at the castle. Twilight (played by @Dji) will likely be the first to move, and the rest follows troop. We'll see soon enough though.

Also, Angel owes Lotus a fight now.

[EQ_Theta 477]

@Blitz Boom

Whoops. My mistake. I'll wait it out and see what happens next. You can disregard the content of my previous post regarding my blunder. 

And Angel knows. Acknowledged and waiting...

I only just realized after making my last post that the banner had changed... What made me do a double take is that I mentioned a bag-pipe in my post, and then a moment later I see the current banner for the first time and notice that the bag-thing Pinkie is poking kind of reminds me of a bag-pipe, lol.  

[Blitz Boom 4,724]

@Storm Shine

It does kind of, yeah. Strange tides.

[BloodDrops 762]

Just making my big sphinx post now

[Blitz Boom 4,724]

Message for everypony!

There won't be posts from me today, sorry. Massive heat wave in over Denmark right now, and it's frankly too warm to think. I'll be back at this as soon as the temperatures becomes bearable. Hopefully tomorrow, or the day after.

[CandyCorn 430]

Is it okay if I give this try? Keep in mind, I haven't RPed since 2004... so I might be really rusty until I get the hang of it. I only have one OC, and that's Fangirl Mode. If I realize I can't do it, I'll have to drop out. ;w; I changed my mind. I don't have a clue on how to RP a pony. ><

Just a quick question for those of you I be playing as Disco with... Anypony see the hidden message in that knowledge 'don't know everything' post? Thought I'd be silly and sneak that in there.    (It's a little easier to see against the quoting background   )

Discord shrugged, "I don't really know.." he tapped a talon to his chin, "Or perhaps I simply don't remember? Keep in mind, I am as old as Chaos itself. Occasionally I make sure things happen that even I don't know all of the details of to keep things interesting. Perhaps I made myself forget. Perhaps these are things I truly didn't know. Or perhaps I've yet to even give you a stick and it was a future version of myself that traveled to the past." He shrugged again, "Even as old and powerful as I am Lucid - even with as much as I do know - I don't know everything.. At least, not all at once. Oh, the headache that would give you..."

@Fangirl Mode

Don't be shy, I'm sure you could join too. All you gotta do is respect other ponies (Don't god-mode stuffs and whatnot :P) and have fun!    

It's a happy and fun place here with plenty of helpful ponies who would be more than happy to give you tips and advice if you feel a little lost or unsure.

Not sure, any hints?

[Storm Shine 1,196]

@Lucid_Nightlight

 

Check the long space between the word 'everything...' and the quotes. Try highlighting it. Just thought it would be a little funny to add for anyone who might catch it.

Oh, you sneaky... I gave myself one trying to figure out what you meant

@EQ_Theta

Whoops, forgot the Angel part. I'll get that sorted right away.

[BloodDrops 762]

Just posting now everyone

[FanOfManyShows 399]

@Blitz Boom

I'm kinda losing my drive for the roleplay, so it'd be nice to guide these characters to a proper conclusion soon so I can move on from it, or it's made more engaging for me by others here joining, so it's less of a one on one roleplay nested inside this huge world. There's not much else other than a loss of drive to prevent me from continuing this rp though.

[Sekel 696]

@FanOfManyShows

Aww, that sucks.

[BloodDrops 762]

@FanOfManyShows

Sounds like you need a group journey on a quest from a Sphinx to get your motivation back

 

I accept your deal

[FanOfManyShows 399]

@Blitz Boom

Did you accidentally ping me in the last post?

[Blitz Boom 4,724]

@FanOfManyShows

Yep, mistake there, sorry.

As for the other characters, I am trying to push it along, but you're honestly not making it too easy. :/ You are the only one who knows what it says in Warlock's file, which is why I said that Wing should say what was in it. He didn't, so now I'd have to use a post to stern-talking him into saying it so we can move along. As for the Warlock and Hogweed scene, it can easily just be left for a time. Warlock is going nowhere, and I'm just putting filler right now until the rest have gotten anywhere.

Regarding the scene with the sisters, I thought you would describe the state their old home were in, so we could move along, but that didn't happen either. I'll make something up, no worries there, but I do require some input from you once in awhile on the lore that popped up out of nowhere when the sibling thing rose up.

And no worries about the group with Astral ni it. We're getting back into the castle now. There should be some characters to work with there, for example Dji outside with Enzo if you so wish.

I'd like to try and increase your enjoyment of this, and include more cross-group play, so let's see... Thinking on what groups we might be able to put together here...

Well, the major group that is heading for the sphinx in the forest could work. It was only a few that saw Sapphire and Emerald, and none of those are currently with them far as I know (Perhaps Aurora, but still). Even if they were though, Emerald got a new body, and Sapphire wasn't seen before the castle. They could mingle in with the intent of trying to gain some support in gaining the materials they need for Sapphire's proper resurrection, though that wouldn't be explicitly said so of course. It might also be that one of the materials include something from a sphinx of some might, and they take the chance to gather it now. A lose feather or something, perhaps?

Everypony else too from here on out.

If anypony wants to mingle too, I would welcome them,. Got a guard? Prison with Warlock could be an insightful thing if you wished so. High ranking official. or somepony else who'd have a reason to interrupt the generals? The meeting might just be for you (There's also a large dragon there. Could be a hunter, weirdly obsessed dragon-lover, etc.)

Emerald and Sapphire group isn't specified to be anywhere right now, so anypony who's in the wild could stumble over them with ease. Perhaps somepony raiding the old hovel for magic books? Could be many things.

As for the bigger group, with Misty, Iron, Chow, Karmic, Zhu, Astral and Tidal Wave, they just appeared out of nowhere, in Canterlot. Who knows who thy could stumble upon?

I make it open for anypony to join in on this, and help @FanOfManyShows get a bit more into this once again. Be it with their current chars or new ones, I'll welcome 'em all.:)

If there's somepony specific you have in mind @FanOfManyShows tag them here, and see if they're game that way as well.  I'll support you in what fashion I can.

@BloodDrops seemed willing to mingle for example. Anypony in particular you want to mingle with a sphinx? Doesn't have to be Sapphire and Emerald you know, could even be Warlock, who gets teleported there through a small weakness in his confinement, potentially along with Hogweed, for one reason or another. Or some of Iron's group didn't make it to Canterlot, but got muddled with the other magic rising in the forest, and ended up in or near the sphinx's desert area instead.

@Moonlit

Hey, Moonie? Is everything okay? You've been awfully absent from the thread for a while. Did I forget to reply to you somewhere again? I hope that's not it.

@Blitz Boom @FanOfManyShows

Could come join my Sphinx party, or be put into a village with a old oc of mine.

Wouldn't get bored either way. Though my posts are babysat by @Jeric to make sure I don't post no crazy stuff  just takes a bit longer till you can see them.

@Blitz Boom

Oh sorry that's totally my fault,I tend to be overly cautious when it comes to my characters explaining stuff, especially if your character handed the-thing-that-needs-explaining to mine, And somehow I managed to think you know what'd be written on Warlock, but I can definitely describe what's on it if the other characters read the file, or they can ask Iron Wing what he read on the file or for more info like you're suggesting.

And for more room of suggestions, Warlock may be easily susceptible for turning evil even if he was fully reformed anyway.

[Lucid_Nightlight 929]

@Blitz Boom

There's a chance that I will be gone for a few weeks, just letting you know

Never mind, crisis averted!
