Welcome to the Exploring and Settling New Lands RP!  If the roleplay were to be defined, it would be "exploration/political/slice-of-life," but honestly, this is a completely open-world roleplay.  We are trying to build an incredibly large, busy, expansive world, so feel free to enter as many OCs as you want and please tell friends! The premise is this:


 


"Equestria has become overpopulated, and around 5,000 citizens (of course, most will be not part of the roleplay, but background ponies, if you will) have been selected to journey westward, where an incredibly large island has been found.  The goal is to populate this land and to create towns and cities on it."


 


So, you have been chosen to be a settler of this island.  Everything else is up to you!  Shall you become an adventurer, roaming this vast land in search of ancient treasures, or a leader of a town? Shall you be a VIP that everypony else knows of, or the happy farmer living by him/herself.  You can be anything that want to in this unfamiliar land.  Wherever you think your OC would be most at home, than that is what you can be!


NOTE: Natives of different species may be found on this island, which means that non-pony OCs are accepted!


 


Rules:


Minor romance and cursing is okay, but try to keep this PG-13 or under, m'kay guys?


No godmodding


Don't do anything that wouldn't fall under MLP canon.  For example, no guns; try to keep weaponry at medieval level.


Don't be too OP.  Having a special talent for something is okay, but your OC is not perfect at everything.


Please use correct grammar and spelling, or at least as well as you can.


Try to think of other RP'ers.  Don't post anything like "-such and such OC- runs into -such and such- town and kills everypony, taking over the town"


On that note, try not to kill any other RPers unless OKed by them first


You CAN have multiple OCs accepted!


Try to keep things civil.  I know that it's hard to get along with everyone, but do your best to love and tolerate :)


Not too important, but try to let us know here if you're gonna be gone for a long time (5+ days).


 


How to apply:


Link OC page or use this format:


Name:


Race (Unicorn, Pegasi, Earth Pony, or other):


Male/Female:


Looks:


Personality:


Cutie Mark:


Special Powers ("none" is okay, and nothing too OP)


Spouse/Children:


Why they were chosen to colonize this new land:


NOTE: Even if you link your OC, please state why they were chosen


 


Just an FYI, I plan on accepting most applicants.  We want this world to be as big, detailed, and interesting as mainland Equestria is!


Keep all OOC and applications here, but feel free to PM me at any time, I'll reply as soon as possible.

Name - Omar Ironhoof

 

Race - Unicorn

 

Gender - Male

 

Looks - Lighter grey fur with a dark blue mane. About the size of an average pony.

 

Personality - Friendly, polite, calm, tries to be honest most of the time. If he sees an argument he'll try to get the participants to calm down.

 

Cutie Mark - A book symbolizing his love for fiction

 

Special Powers - Knows a bit of dark magic. 

 

Spouse/Children - None

 

Why he was chosen to help colonize the new land - Not exactly sure why.

 

I'll probably make a better character page for this OC that will add a bit more (and probably make a reason for that last question) when I have some more time. And not exactly sure if I will keep that name.

Approved, of course.  Let's get this started!

My friend and I want to join! Our OCs are sisters. I'd like to apply with Star Blitz (link in sig).

 

Name: Star Blitz

 

Race (Unicorn, Pegasi, Earth Pony, or other): Unicorn

 

Male/Female: Female

 

Looks: Link in sig.

 

Personality: Link in sig.

 

Cutie Mark: Link in sig.

 

Special Powers ("none" is okay, and nothing too OP) Fire magic-- for slightly more information, link in sig. :D

 

Spouse/Children: None.

 

Why they were chosen to colonize this new land: Originally, Blitz's sister, Glider, was the only one chosen, though both sisters applied. Blitz was outraged and pulled on strings and demanded to be sent as well, eventually had a meeting with Princess Celestia (if that's okay with you, DM), and managed to get herself sent, as well. Her task is to educate any natives that may be found about magic, if they have none, and also teach the next generation about magic.

Name: Star Glider


Race: Pegasus


Male/Female: Female


Looks: She's somewhat tall and gangly, a little thin, with bony and sharply defined features (as ponies go, that is). She has blue fur with a diamond shaped darker marking on her forehead. She has a green-blue mane, with a grayish streak of hair that she allows to go past her jeweled headband that she is never seen without.


Personality: Her primary trait is her hatred of hurting other ponies. Because of this, she stays quiet around strangers, not wanting to say anything to offend them. However, she quickly warms up to ponies and grows to trust them, and when she does she's very friendly. In social situations, she does her best to make other ponies at ease and not have awkward pauses. She refuses to show off, and is often shy of even slightly exhibiting her abilities to her close friends. This is different with her sister, Blitz, who she enjoys practicing with. She has a sweet disposition, trying to never say anything to remotely offend another pony. She has trouble with humor because of this. She will try her best not to touch a stranger at all, but she will often affectionately headbutt and hug her friends.


Cutie Mark: A long cloud with a spiral at one end, making it look also like a gust of wind. Represents her affinity with wind.


Special Powers ("none" is okay, and nothing too OP) She's very good with wind. Her cutie mark represents the way she can easily get wind going through different kinds of flight techniques.


Spouse/Children: None. However, she has a sister--Blitz.


Why they were chosen to colonize this new land: Look at Red's. She was chosen because she's very good at weather magic, even if she's not strong, and can get boats going if they get stuck in dead water.

Both accepted!  Thanks for applying, can't wait to hear from both of you!  The RP is open, so feel free to go ahead and post, or wait 'till we get on land (We're still on the boat right now).

Link OC page or use this format: https://mlpforums.com/page/roleplay-characters/_/peregrine-r8352


Name: Peregrine


Race (Unicorn, Pegasi, Earth Pony, or other): Pegasus


Male/Female: Female


Looks: Mauve coat, blonde mane, blue eyes


Personality: Matronly and compassionate, she's quite used to draping her wing over somepony to hug them. She can act rather ditzy at times when dealing with anything that doesn't involve grooming.


Cutie Mark: Nail File and Clippers crossed over one another, with a silver horseshoe in the background.


Special Powers ("none" is okay, and nothing too OP): None


Spouse/Children: None.


Why they were chosen to colonize this new land: After several run-ins with various county sheriffs on charges of vagrancy, Peregrine was deemed an ideal candidate due to minimal family connections, a useful skill set, and otherwise orderly behaviour besides her tendency to wander.

Alright! Thanks for accepting me and Red! Unfortunately, we're going on a trip, and I have a personal thing about using my phone. Red may post, but I will not. For the next week or so, I will be posting on and off. I hope this doesn't inconvenience you guys too much! I'll make sure I keep up with the RP. :)

@@Little Red,

Yeah, Blitz and Glider have their own boat, as well as Sparkle Sword and White Wing having a separate one, too.  Everypony else is on the main 5 boats, right?

I think I'm on the front boat but I'm not sure. Yes, I'm a part of the original five boats.

No, Blitz and Glider are on the 5 main boats, just not the one your character is on. Sorry for the confusion.

Ah, thanks for the clarification.  I'm still trying to get everypony organized in my mind :)

Sure!  I'm sure that would fit into the RP well!

Gosh I make my posts lengthy.

I'm assuming everypony's ready to leave the boats?  Adventure awaits, matey!

Aiai, captain, let's get off this ship!

Aspen, I hope my post was okay. I can change something if you like. It's just that Blitz fully intends to create a bustling city. So that was all that. :)

If you have a problem with me a. Kinda making up the captain or b. Blitznstarting a new town, I can edit.
