@@Unicorncob,

 

If I may give one slight RP critique, I think Crackshot is being a little too forward with his past.

 

I mean, this is something he wishes to atone for, something that pains him inside. Why would he offer it up so readily after knowing these ponies for a relatively brief period of time?

 

I mean we don't find out that Steel hooves is [spoilerS IF YOU HAVEN'T READ FoE YET! AND IF NOT, WHY?!]

 

Is both basically an Elder within the Steel Rangers hierarchy in spirit if not official title, as well as Applejack's lover until quite a ways after we've met him. Even then, he doesn't talk about it, circumstance force him to pull rank and Littlepip just finds out about the latter.

The only reason for the deathgrip is because she had a wing wrapped around him. The wing clamped to him too.

Yeah I was thinking that myself, but I wasn't sure of how else to go about it

 

Any suggestions?

Maybe have him elaborate a bit less. Like he's considering spilling the beans but more in a reserved way. I mean, would an older, cynical, and taciturn German man be sitting with his friends after a good fishing trip around a campfire, they ask him about the war and he just says

 

"I use to be a Nazi."

 

Or would he say something like;

 

"Every man who goes to war has his moments of pride . . . and his sins to carry home with him."

well actually he has two ciders in him, alcohol makes everyone a bit more talkative

 

Plus I think he feels better around Chip who has revealed his past to Crackshot and the group already.

 

Plus one way to atone for something you have weighted on your heart is to get it out in the open. So for his lover whose pendant he keeps it would be a good way to help him feel better.

[Unicorncob 5,694]

That's a good way to put it

 

Thanks, I think I'll go edit that post

Damn, you both make good points

[Chip Circuit 1,842]

It's like Radiant in our other roleplay, he opened up after a few ciders with a past that only 3 other ponies knew. which is very few considering his rank in the guard

True, true, but still there are things that even the vine can't liberate from a person's lips. I just feel like this could be Crackshot's arc, the path of redemption. It should be properly set up.

 

Then again, this isn't one of my stories and you guys aren't my characters so just take my advice for what it is.

Well what good is it to study to become a writer if you can't help someone else try and tell a story?

So do we use this thread for our OOC stuff and not the actual OOC thread?

tru dat

 

Pretty much

[Chip Circuit 1,842]

yea it ended up our unofficial, official OOC thread

No no, this is good advice

Thanks man

But it is up to you how you want to progress your character, because different things come into consideration... like how long has he been holding onto this burden and how exactly does he feel he needs to atone for what he has done.

[Steel Accord 6,660]

Just waiting for Dashia and then I'll introduce myself properly.

That's also a good point

I think after meeting Ezekiel we'll learn a bit more about him

[Defender of Tomorrow 323]

I made the OOC thread a long time ago, but it never caught on with the rest of y'all. Also let's try to bring this day to a close, so the barn can be all burned out and everyone at the very least sorta rested, unless you're all okay with sleep deprivation.

[Chip Circuit 1,842]

If Crackshot were mine I may not reveal the truth behind the pendant unless he finds a friend in the group 

Sure we can do that soon

[Unicorncob 5,694]

Crackshot's pretty used to sleep deprivation

Very true, and it seems Chip is the closest thing he has to a friend right now

If both are supposed to be the case, was it really wise to introduce me now?

 

I mean, what if the barn literally caught fire the next day and that's when Ezekiel springs into action to save them from the flames?!

 

Plus, would Crackshot really be as open to talking about his past in front of someone that he literally just met?

[Chip Circuit 1,842]

Granted Chip opened up about his father easily but that was because it came up in conversation of how he was trained.

The edit function exists for reasons like this.

The barn has been burning for quite a while, its just on its last legs, and he could also have been looking for a place to rest. If not, then we can prolong the morning.

So what is your decree? Should we prolong or just continue?

 

My point is it seems odd that a group of post apocalyptic survivors would be keen on lying down for the night with a new stranger, especially when said stranger is a voodoo witch doctor who just walked up and saved them from a rage spirit.

[Chip Circuit 1,842]

Yea I say we figure out who he is first then our characters can call it a night. If they are to skeptical on the newcomer then they can alter night shifts.

I'm guessing if he wanted to kill them he would have let the fire spirit finish them off
