No, so far its pony but really once I have enough RPers, I may ask to see what everyone is more comfortable with.

 

Accepted but one problem: your experience = 48, can you subtract 1 from one of them.

[The Shadow Stallion 127]

It adds up to 47. I actually used a calculator ^.^"

I just realized theres no section on the character sheet for character appearance. .3.

[The Shadow Stallion 127]

The waiting is always the worst x.x Just an FYI I might be a bit slow if we start tomorrow. I have to go to a basketball game.... maybe.

You out finding more RPers to join the RP? I'd think this RP would have a lot more peeps by now showin up >.<

He is kind hearted and often helps those in need. Does not apply when paranoid.

He has a good sense of right and wrong.
He is also very stubborn. It has often gotten him in trouble and others hurt which he regrets.
He is very disorganized and often loses things not important to him at the time.
He has a yearning for knowledge and discovery. Many times he will drop everything and forget everything but what he is studying. This is an easy way for him to get himself in trouble.

The short barreled arquebus surprised me... I guess He likes to get up close and personal? (since Arquebuses usually have short ranges and cutting the barrel decreases it's range.)

@@The Shadow Stallion, @@Firehearted, @,

 

I will start it once we have one more

or

Sunday 

[The Shadow Stallion 127]

I could post up another OC if you'd like lol

If you're up to the task, then alright.

[The Shadow Stallion 127]

Heck I'll do it, but I'm debating on whether female or male .3. Preference?

[Nameless Knight 1,001]

female, we already have 4 males

Make it a long barrel Arquebuse then. I couldn't decide between a long rifle or short for him. He isn't carrying really any armor which is my excuse. If that's too big for a "secondary" then make it a normal size.

Oh no its fine, a greatsword or a battle axe/halberd are the only things I would consider too big to be a secondary weapon. 

 

Fact:

-Arquebusiers were feared among heavy infantry because of the fact that arquebuses were really good at piercing armor and causing fear among the ranks, so not even knights (who would usually just shake off arrows and bolts) were safe!-

 

you just probably learned something... maybe

[The Shadow Stallion 127]

I'll post the OC tomorrow if no one else joins. Just to give someone else a chance .3.

[Nameless Knight 1,001]

That's good, because if I started today, I would only post only once or twice, because it is 9:51 here in South Texas.

 

That reminds me, what is everyone's timezone?

[The Shadow Stallion 127]

Im 1 hour ahead of you and on School nights I usually hit the hay at 11:00 PM

HST... Hawaii... It's only 6 here so I will be posting a bit later than everyone else.

Currently until the 23rd I'll be central standard time U.S. After said date, Eastern Standard.

[Eternal Night 61]

Character Sheet:

Name: Elysian Cosmos

 

Gender: Male

 

Race: Unicorn

 

Homeland: Equestria

 

Occupation: Thief

 

Age: (22)

 

Cutie mark: Nebula, it's supposed to reflect his love of stargazing and has nothing really to do with his class.

 

Appearance: a bit shorter than the average stallion, with darker gray fur.

 

Best Attributes: Can be kind at times, a solid trader, sweet talker, level headed, can think on his feet, great at casting illusion magic

 

Worst Attributes: Cocky, Arrogant, Odd sense of humor, distrustful, untrustworthy, selfish, manipulative, greedy, a bit cowardly when things don't go his way.

 

Personality: Elysian Cosmos, (prefers to go by Cosmo) is a poor common petty thief with a love of stargazing, but cannot pursue his dreams of becoming an astronomer since he cannot afford schooling and results to crime to cover his life's expenses. Because of his overwhelming poverty he is rather ill traveled, barely leaving his neighborhood in Manehatten. After years of darting around in the shadows, he can practically make himself vanish and when he's in a pinch he can turn himself invisible using his magic. His magic also allows him to teleport short distances (only like 10 or 15 m) and cast illusion spells to strike fear into others hearts or help persuade others to do his bidding. In combat Cosmo likes to keep his distance if at all possible and use his crossbow to pick off targets, but when enemies begin to close he fights dirty, and uses his wits to either clear a path for his escape or to steer the fight in his favor. Though when things don't go his way he is not above running away instead, casting a cloud of smoke to distract his enemies.

 

Purpose: To escape law enforcement in Equestria after committing a large numbers of theft, money laundering, and other various criminal activities. Kind of throws himself on a random boat not knowing, or caring where it went.

 

Armor & Weapons:

Head: a leather hood (who needs helmets?)

Armor: Light Leather Suit

Main Weapon: Crossbow

Shield/extra weapon: Short sword or dagger (which ever the guy running this prefers I could do either, having both would be pretty cool too...)
