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

[Evil Pink One 13,507]

Light's Goal.

to defeat the bad writers!

 

[Blitz Boom 4,655]

I will respond to things in here tomorrow. Including what you wrote, @Starforce, about new characters. Sorry for not doing so before. Real life's been distracting the last week or so.

 

[Blitz Boom 4,655]

Alright, that was the posts sorted. Now on to the OOC stuff. Starting with-

@Kujamih

Still not going to force a link between threads. If anyone would like for Light to be involved in something, please do ping it here, and we can work on something, However, please don't push into another posting going without consent. If you have a particular one in sight, poke the ones involved here in the OOC, and see what responses you may get from them.

Also, I have some plans involving his new companion, that can serve as links to a few things here and there, just in case. You'll see.

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

 

@Starforce

Looking them over, Collapse would likely work better with the current setting, as she is a fellow inventor, who also have made flight possible. She may end up having a lot to speak about with Molotov, even if he works in more pure machinery and robotics, rather than mixing magic and machinery all that much. Yet in that case, the two of them could learn much from one another, if it were. Imagine the utterly weird things they'd end up crafting, or even speak about. Hey, they could see one another as rivals, or have a friendly competition to see who could make something fitting a particular need the best.

That being said, I do think that perhaps, there could be a place for Magloria somewhere else, although she seems to be rather... How do I put it... Similar to Magnolia, in many ways? Daughter of cannon characters, stealing magic, dabbling in dark arts, and wandering on the path of a villain. Even though she seem to have gone a good deal past that, thus far.

Are Magloria and Magnolia in some way inspired of one another?

[Evil Pink One 13,507]

@Blitz Boom

hmmm. IF... if Light did meet another pony.... who is the nearest one in the vicinity?... I mean the zebra's are sure to be the farthest and weirdest for Light to end up meeting with right?....

@Kujamih

My real world geography is pretty bad, and sadly that counts for fictional map reading too, so I have no idea who the closest are, to be honest. No active zebra chars used right now though. Zeehva's not a real zebra. She moved to Zebrica, and to appease the traditionalists there, underwent proper alchemist training and trials, to gain their approval at her plan to marry a zebra. The stripes she have, are painted on, and will remain, even if her fur grows out. It's an honorary sort of thing, to mark her willingness to embrace, and live by, their traditions and culture..

I do have a zebra, but he's not currently used.

@FanOfManyShows also have one, but he is here very infrequently.

Transport can be handled, just try and focus on something, and then ask around, aight?

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

 

@Starforce

She can still drain magic in my opinion. Just have to be done towards creatures who'd wish to cause harm. Or to clear some cursed items around. That sorta thing. I like the thinking that there are two sides to everything, and then explore how one might turn that around.

Necromancy as an example. Primarily seen ass raiding the dead, and causing disease. Yet if they can raise the dead, couldn't they also lay the dead to rest? And there's not far from cursing disease, to then know exactly how to deal with it, to make it go away again.

Same with sacrificial magic. Dark stuff, that takes life to fuel various dark crafts, yet could also be used to offer a portion of yourself, to save another.

To get back on track though, perhaps I should have another of my chars run into Magnolia at some point. He works with a kind of shadow magic, though not similar to her own. Yet they may be able to find some common ground, and talk about how to efficiently embrace the darkness, whilst still being technically on the good side. He travels in shadows (literally) so he can find someone, at any time. Maybe when they're selling potions he'd come around, checking to see if there's something unlicensed, and she feels him lurking around? Just trying to think of a way to let you flaunt off your shadows a little more, if that in some way, would help you feel more comfy around things.

Just a thought though. What might yours be, as right now, I'm just tossing us about, and see what happens.

[Blitz Boom 4,655]

@Starforce

Early shift tomorrow, so will think on this. But generally, gave my thoughts on your other chars earlier. I like Collapse more. She's more grounded... Kind of. xD You know, if you ignore the flying. Anyway, more inventor types are interesting, as it opens up a lot of avenues for creativity. Magic drain does have some sort of limitations on where it can lead.

I can speak more on some ideas regarding that, and Magnolia, another time, though just know that I think if she can only now drain from guilty ones, that should mean that her magic ion that area, are driven by her own sense of morality. If she thinks of herself as good, she cannot harm innocents. A little magical weirdness.

Only seen the first version of Magloria really, but she seemed fine. Potential certainly, and if you'd want her used, I think I may have one she could face against, using a kind of magic that I don't think she'd enjoy taking for herself. But that's for another time, and I still have toc heck the other versions tomorrow.

Also, this is the one I spoke of, that have shadow of a sort, from my side.

Shade Stealer. Or as he were named when born, Soul Prison. And no, he is definitely not a happy bunny. xD Him sneering at others, are generally in character.

[Evil Pink One 13,507]

@Starforce

Well, Molotov and the others are in Manehattan, so that's some way from Ponyville.  Or do you mean further away? Like, outside of Equestria? IN the cold north? Something like that?

And having checked further on Magloria, I have a little to say of version 2 and 3.

2: Alicorn father is unusual, but nothing really major there, except for a way to explain some oddities, and ties in well with her hatred of alicorns in general, if it have not gone well with her and him. Her ability as essentially a Blue mage is interesting. Have to experience the magic cast, to do it herself, but then have access to it. Gives variety, yet should also be rather dangerous for her. Intriguing idea to run with. Being half zebra, I can imagine she may also have an affinity for randomly starting to rhyme her words, and potentially some skills in potion-making? I have a half zebra, half pegasus that might get along with her then, though she'd all sunshine and flowers. A sharp contrast to the darkness Magloria seems to be harboring in herself.

3:  Sounds like an interesting, ongoing story. I hope they'll make it out of there alive.

I think I mentioned version one earlier, but if you want me to read that some more clearly, lemme know, and I'll look into it.

Also, the two I spoke of in regards to her.

Zegasus, Zingola. Or Doc Zinger, as she called herself after getting her medical license. Most just calls her Ziggy. Nearly as tall as an alicorn due to abnormal growth hormones when she were little, and bursting with too much energy from the imbalance her mixed legacy caused. She is seen here, about to tacklehug some poor sap, as she so often tend to do. The glasses are just frames, but they were gifts from a friend, so she keeps them on, despite her eyesight being perfect.

Vivid Loss. Demon mare, or to be specific, demonic magic-infused pony. Though that hardly matters much anymore. Sold her soul her youth and power, and became a pawn, until she were sent to demand Discord - back when he ruled Equestria the first time - prepared the Equestrian climate for the demonic host. He easily defeated her, and trapped her in crystal, beneath the crystal empire, for her hubris. She were eventually released when Shining Armor and Cadence had parts of the crystals excavated, and freed her. As her former masters had ended up dying to stronger demons in her absence, her soul were hers again, and she signed a new contract with the royal couple, in exchange for a chance to become a regular part of society again. She made sure to vigorously have the contract written, and rewritten over the next four days, to ensure there were no loopholes for her to take advantage of, and as it is binding, she is literally incapable of murdering, or severely harming others. She is enough demon at this point, to where she is bound to the words.

She's been out and about for a few months now, and when not answering the call of the royals - sometimes for errands to run, issues to solve, Cadence trying to get her cultured, or questions towards raising foals, as Vivid had three of her own once - wanders Equestria, trying to find her place in this new world, that she have been torn from so long. It is not going well, with the few who welcomed her, abandoning her shortly thereafter. Which isn't helping her occasional mood swings, and feelings of being an eternal outsider.

The clothes she wears are cold tot he touch for others, but burns her with hundreds of degrees of heat. The demons cannot openly enter Equestria, as it is not warm enough for them, and they'd freeze in the spot, lest they arrived in a volcano. She isn't completely like them, yet even the summer heat, feels like ice to her, if she does not wear the demonic threads. She longs for a spell, or object, that can help her, so that she can enjoy the feeling of the sun basking on her skin again.

You'd have to find the real one first. Shade likes to use decoys, akin to magic-infused scarecrows, wrapped in darkness, rather than go take things head on all the time. And even then, he travels in shadows, so it's not easy to hit him.

He's not a bad guy though. He's the head of General Midnight Screecher's black ops group. Her being the leader of the Night Guard, whom he is completely loyal to, as she were the only one giving him a chance, after he had a falling out with his family, over the forbidden magic he stole. He did so for a good cause though. He needed it to save his cousins lives, and he succeeded. Yet the magic had a price, and he sacrificed his wings for it. They can still move, yet he cannot fly with them, lest he infuses them with a fair bit of magic. Even then, it isn't the same, and he lost the ability to stand on clouds.

He's generally not well liked, due to his squad handling the unpleasant, yet necessary stuff, and it makes him irritated and lonely. And the more they make up stuff about him, and reject him, the more spiteful and willing to play up to their expectations he gets, which nets him even less of a chance at making friends, and so on. There's a good pony buried beneath it all, but since he can't even find anyone that is willing to talk to him properly, much less listen to his reasons for what he did, it can be hard to find it.

If you set fire to him, I'm turning Kujamih into a magic-less pineapple.

The picture's good, and I like the details of how a pony would have magical fingers. However, the squirrel isn't quite right. Let me show you the reference picture, I found on Googlle.

You see here more what I meant about the ears. A predator species, that usually feed on fish and shellfish, along with regular squirrel things like nuts and such, the mimics are curious, mischievous little things. An endangered species, only barely seeming to start repopulating properly now, and with varied small riverside *villages* around Equestria. They can do a fun thing, that earned them the title of mimic, over their respective scientific one, but you'll see that soon enough in the RP.

The one Kujamih met, have the third eye though, as mentioned. As well as being again, mostly charcoal dark, with grey tones to him. That is because he's technically more of a construct of sorts, formed into one of these things by a third party. Couldn't change his coloration, or the three eyes however. If you wanna see where he's actually from, just ask him. He'd be happy to show you. :3

He's also utterly harmless. Literally. He's just following Light because he's curious. He wouldn't even know how to start hurting another creature on purpose.

[Evil Pink One 13,507]

@Blitz Boom

okay...... Light will wait for a reply.... THEN maybe burn it to ash... 

[Catpone Cerberus 23,652]

@Blitz Boom
Not a big deal but you seemed to mix up the names a bit (you called Solar -> light) again, not a big deal, just mentioning  

[Evil Pink One 13,507]

@Zombie Breeze why you ain't role-playing no more

[Evil Pink One 13,507]

@Zombie Breeze

light is already far from the hospital whenna squirrel appeared. so maybe we edit it that you followed light from afar and once you cought up you sneaked in and cought Light by surprise because he was busy being distracted by the squirrel.

[Blitz Boom 4,655]

Letting all know that I will be away from the PC this weekend, so no posts until next week. have a good weekend.

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

 

@Imperium

You there mate? Bit more than the day after your last message.

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

 

@Loud Opinion

Having issues figuring out the shark one again? I can try and get another char in too if that'd help?

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

 

@Widdershins

You there lad? You4r dragon's being set up for some mighty awkward shenanigans.

[Evil Pink One 13,507]

uuuu UUUUhhhh uuuuuuu Light is ready @Blitz Boom 

light is ready to cause shenanigans and assistance

[Evil Pink One 13,507]

btw there's cellphones..... you can always go to the forums through cellphones @Blitz Boom.... your excuse is not acceptable 

[Loud Opinion 602]

@Blitz Boom

I'm thinking of responses, but I'm not finding enough to sink my teeth into. Nothing about your response changed my character's situation, so there's nothing for me to describe. Also, --perhaps I should have expected as much with a casual stroll-- but without tension I find it very easy to ignore this RP.

Another character might fix this, but I'm not sure. If you think its worth a try than I'll meet you half way.

[Skylight Scintillate 2,064]

@Blitz Boom

Hello, I'm kinda interested in joining this RP, however, I would like to know what is going on so far. I think I might be able to come up with something...

[Blitz Boom 4,655]

@Zoom Jump-Scare

Hello there.  Nice to see you're interested in the RP, and good news here, in that there is not a lot of story you'd need to know. Depends on the area, but there's no big, overarching plot. We just goof around, and have fun with various stories. Some connected, some not.  You have an area you'd like to RP in, within Equestria, and then I can perhaps fill you in on the happenings in that area?

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

 

@Loud Opinion

Tension? So you mean like... Conflict and stuff? Huh... I don't do a lot of that, but I can work something out. Maybe what we need, is less of a character, and more of a situation where things goes towards being somewhat bad. I'll think on this for a bit, then put something in. :3

I don't do a lot of those sorts of things, so gonna wring my head a bit. Maybe I can finally get some use out of one I were supposed to use earlier in the year, with another that then vanished... Yeah. Lemme think on this again, and get back to ya.

Alternatively... @Kujamih is looking for something to crash, and he have a pretty weird char to roll with. I could drag him into something too if it were? Maybe it would help with another person along, to spice it up?

IDK, I just feel like doing a casual RP. Sometimes I get inspiration from what is currently going on.

We could do a random SoL with one of the characters I have so far. There is Peppermint the botanist, and Plum Blossom, a filly from the Plum Family. The others won't work well in a casual RP. I do have a list of random RP ideas, though, but they are very rough...

• Something to do with Spike?
• Something to do with the student six?
• Something to do with the canterlot six?
• Why is Cozy Glow evil?
• Dash-Dust RP? (Not in a romantic way.)
• Whats up with the Kirins?

[Evil Pink One 13,507]

yes I has been summoned! @Loud Opinion  you want chaos?...... well my character is trying to fix this world... it's full of different fates created by writers and light is trying to connect everyone..... I guess that's chaotic.... for @Blitz Boom muhahahahaha @Zoom Jump-Scare you can join our story arc so @Blitz Boom will have a hard time..... I mean have a more livelier and fun world...... 

Edited October 25, 2021 by Kujamih

[Skylight Scintillate 2,064]

@Kujamih, Tell me more about this story arc idea of yours. I'm interested.

[Blitz Boom 4,655]

@Kujamih @Zoom Jump-Scare

I don't use cannon characters, if I can avoid it, so I would prefer there not to be adventures with some like Spike or the like. Other folks can take over them if they want, but I prefer using OC's. No established lore, or character, that can be messed up that way.

So looking over your list, that'd narrow it down to... Chasing after Kirin, and figuring out something related to them? And the casual part of this RP, is more in the fact that I'm not forcing a grand narrative, even if the setting is the same. There's room for most sorts of stories here.

Which is why, once again, I need to remind Kujamih, that I will not force a big narrative here, nor have everyone interact. Some will never end up meeting, by design, and I will not at any point change policy on that. People can interact with those who allow it, and otherwise be allowed to be left alone, in their *bubbles*.

That being said, the idea can come in for those who would be interested. So go ahead and present it.

[Loud Opinion 602]

@Kujamih

I second this curiosity.

Here here, I say.

Though I require no further explanation, if there is more to give, then I shall not scorn it.

Let it be known, @Blitz Boom, that I am in favor of this merging

[Blitz Boom 4,655]

Aight, seems like there is some who'd like a collaboration. @Kujamih, set forth the proposal then for @Zoom Jump-Scare and @Loud Opinion, and let's see what happens.
