It was about 5 hours after sunset. I sat awake in bed, trying to keep my brain active as much as I could. It wasn't a particularly bad day. I got to see my friends today, in a way I felt at peace then, but I was too idle now. I needed to do something. I couldn't sit here and waste any more of my life while everypony else was having fun or working productively.

 

I was tired. I felt my own body becoming heavy. I slouched down on my legs and crawled into bed, but I couldn't sleep. I was tired, but I was restless.

 

I heard this voice coming from within me. I had never heard a voice speaking to me before...every negative thought I ever had manifested in emotion. Every breakdown was visible, as much as I try in my right mind to distance myself from these negative thoughts and become confident, everything inadequate and useless about me had come back hard and there was nothing I could do to stop it.

 

"You were talented once...you had a gift to share with the world..."

 

It went on deeply, smoothly, telling me what it wanted me to think, exactly as I think when I get down and mull in my lack of a foreseeable future.

 

"...but they refused it. The're trying to control you. Equestria picks and chooses who it wants to be successful, and you deserve better than what they're giving for you."

 

"Face it, you have something you could share with them! You could've helped ponies, but look what they're doing to you! They tell you what you're good at but then they act as if they have no need for it. Then, after you're down, there are others just like you who get so much more success, they get lots of friends and support! Better friends that will actually do so much more for them, connections that will do so much more for their lives!"

 

I felt my psyche begin to crack, and my sanity and my rational mind begin to slip away...

 

"They get more money, more popularity than you! And they're just the same! Really, are you going to take it anymore?"

 

Now, there was only urge, this sense of urgency, like it was in school, like it was when I failed at my job at Pegasus Express...

 

"NO! I WON'T! I WON'T LET THEM HAVE IT! I WON'T LET THEM CONTROL MY LIFE!"

 

I felt the pent up anger and rage escape my mind, all at once, as I jumped to the floor and stood tall. The emotions were out, but the thoughts remained...and then I felt it physically, for real this time.

 

My head ached...my legs felt clammy and tingled. They stretched out as my coat turned from cloud white to charcoal gray from the base of the hoof on upwards until it consumed my entire body. I felt my wings crumple, and I saw nothing but green lights that blazed from my eyes. Everything in my room reflected with a green tint, and my teeth grew and stretched until they all had sharper crowns.

 

A sudden gust of wind rushed over me like nothing I had ever experienced before. I felt taller, stronger, and more physically adept than ever before, like I was finally finding the strength within me to stand up and take on the world.

 

Hanging on the back of my bed was a dark trench coat. On the floor in the corner were four black boots with steel toes and metal spikes on the soles. I know for sure I never bought such accessories from Vested Interest or any other clothing seller around here, ever. But they had to be mine. I slipped into the trench coat, and it fit snugly. It gave me a sense of satisfaction to know that this was mine. I slipped into the boots, and they fit comfortably. I felt confident. I finally felt that I was physically imposing, I felt a sense of spiritual peace that now I had the power to take control of my life and my abilities. I was able to do things I never knew I could. I was better at Pegasus things like changing the weather than I ever thought I was! I no longer care what anypony else says. I don't respect the authority of Equestria, Manehattan, or the Princesses anymore for allowing me to become this.

 

I felt like I no longer needed to sleep. I left the room and took to the skies with strength and endurance like I never had before. I dragged the power of the bitter, freezing North Wind behind me as I flew through the cloudy urban night into the hostile outside world with whom I had an open feud.

 

It is me against the world. Now I've found the power within me to stand up for myself. I'm done watching. I'm done standing by and existing while others get to live.

 

I had a gift. I could have improved the world. I could have helped ponies. But instead, you tried to get rid of it. You tried to focus me on other things so I wouldn't be able to think for myself, discover myself, or be an asset to anypony. You gave others my gifts and respected them, and yet you seemed to have a problem with me having them.

 

You rejected all I had to offer you. Know this now. I don't do exchanges.

 

I'm not Wind Chaser anymore. That moniker was a relic of a past, meaningless existence. I don't chase the winds anymore. I control them. The North Wind inspires me as I flow with it.

 

I am one with the North Wind now. I am NIGHTWIND BOREAS.

Wind Chaser becomes overcome by jealousy and anger towards his position in life and corrupts into Nightwind Boreas, a dark creature with the ability to control the North Wind.

 

In an attempt to bring meaning and purpose to his life, he sets out to steal the Rainbow Power box and force Equestria to respect and honor him as its new savior. Who knows if the same power he seeks would become his undoing...?

 

Rules:

• Usual ground rules apply; no godmodding, no OP, no Mary Sues, etc.
• OCs only, except for the Princesses. I will need someone to offer to play Celestia, Luna, or both. I will play both Celestia and Luna, their roles will be relatively minor.
• Try to make this in a format as faithful to the show's two-parters as possible. I don't want an overly long or overly complex RP, those have a tendency to die out quickly. In addition, no overt death or gore, after all, the show never did that!
• Your OC must have either a Rainbow Power form or an evil/villain form.

Heroes:

• You will start normal, and then as you come together you will be called to find the Rainbow Power box. Backstory on what your key is and how you found it will be a plus.

Villains:

• You have the option of either starting normal or in your villain form. Nightwind Boreas will make an offer to ally with you. You may choose to accept or decline. As with the heroes, references to a backstory on how you became a villain would be a plus.

Rainbow Power/Heroes:

• Vested Interest ()
• Alamo ()
• Comet Streak ()
• Sunmane (@The Shadow Stallion)
• Steelhide (@The Shadow Stallion)
• @Nerd-Letter

this sounds interesting I have never seen a rp where the users can be antagonists I will join you only if you will accept me. My OC is in description we can nerf him down a bit if you think he is overpowered

I'm going to need a bit more clear description of his powers. What exactly makes you think he would seem overpowered?

[Snow Frostflame 3,568]

Snowflake Frostflame has mastery over Ice magic he can summon an army of Ice elemental ponies to do his bidding and anything involving cold magic he can do, he is also a ghost so he cannot die but we can fix that

The ice magic is good, will he be able to do without the army?

[Snow Frostflame 3,568]

yes he only uses the army when he is battling someone stronger then him or against other armies but he is a great spell caster he doesn't need an army

[Wind Chaser 4,768]

All right, I'll add him. We'll do without the army.

 

Just waiting for any others to join. I need a few more.

gottcha I will return when we are ready unless you need additional information or want to make a few tweaks to him

[Rainbow Eclipse 3,927]

@,

 

I'd like to enter with Riley as a *sincere gasp* villain.

 

To this day, he still can't confess his love for Anala. He becomes insane and convinced that Anala is a witch who cast a spell on him. He seeks to make her his, or destroy her.

 

Can't wait to have him sing Hellfire...

That's crazy! I like it!

 

Would you find a place for Anala as well or are you just fine mentioning her?

[Rainbow Eclipse 3,927]

@,

 

Now that you mention it, I'd like to bring her up. She is aware of Riley's feelings, and is trying to get him to snap out of his deranged state.

 

Perhaps I could have Riley shift between good and evil?

However you run Riley's character arc would be fine by me. Anala would be great as well as an accessory to Riley's backstory.

 

I'd like to see somepony else enter with Rainbow Power OCs...

[Princess Pinny 6,099]

I would like to enter Pin Point as a villain.

 

No pony at school takes her seriously. They always laugh at her, and they call her names. Then one day she became insanely furious and started to transform to the creature she is now.

 

(Did I do that right? Hope I did that right)

That's great! We can expand on that when we start.

 

We just need some ponies on the good side as well, I'll consider putting my other OC, Vested Interest on the good side for now.

[Storm Shine 1,196]

@, 

 

Oh Oh! If you don't have too many villains, I just thought up a reason for Storm Shine to become a villain! Maybe have him call himself: Storm Shade!

 

Backstory: Storm always saw the happiness and light in everything, never getting down in the dumps when somepony insulted him or something went bad. But what if, unknown to everypony even himself, Storm was unconsciously pushing everything bad down, so as to always be happy.

One day something happened, something that caused him to retreat into his mind lest he lose hold on his sanity. When this happened, he subconsciously created a survival reflex so that he didn't go into a coma (Or something...). Instead the darkness and anger within him was given conscious thought, becoming a seperate personality known as Storm Shade!

 

(I know it may seem kind of cliche or something, but it just popped into my head as I read this topic.... Also, if you do have too many villains I think I might be able to imagine up something for a hero backstory...)

Consider both and pick whichever one you like better.

 

I wouldn't rule out a Heel-Face Turn or a Face-Heel Turn happening anywhere along the line. You could start good and become evil or start evil and become good. Whatever you choose.

I will take that into consideration much later in the RP

[Storm Shine 1,196]

@, 

 

Oh! I think he could start in the story as Storm Shade, as an introduction I guess (I'm saying this mostly so I don't have to come up with the event that forces Storm (Shine) into his mind yet. lazy me... ). But during the storyline he might have times where Storm Shine'll shine through (). So he'll have to coerce, convince, and occasionally overpower Storm (Shine) If he wants to remain in control.

 

Even if Storm (Shade) is forced back, he can never truly be destroyed, due to his very nature within their mind. So both will have to keep an eye aware at all times once Storm (Shine) gets out of his mind overpowering funk.

 

(Whaddaya think? Sorry if this seems overpoweringly cliche-ish)

I don't see it as overly cliche at all. It has the makings of a compelling and interesting story. I'll add you in.

[Storm Shine 1,196]

@, 

 

YAY! Glad to see I'm not being cliche... And thanks for the complement for the story! (I literally thought it up while I was reading the post... the second post I thought up about a minute after I read the whole 'heel-face face-heel' thing you wrote...

[Princess Pinny 6,099]

Oh thank god. I was worried for a second that you wouldn't accept it.

[Wind Chaser 4,768]

There's no need to worry, I'm open to guiding you on helping to make your character better as we go on.

 

We still need some heroes, though, this RP is getting full of villains. If only I could get my DeviantArt friends onto here...

[Catsle 604]

Hey I saw the rp looks cool, got my oc in signature and I would like to be a hero

Finally, somepony on the good side! You're on!

 

You're fully okay with the use of Rainbow Power in here?
