ooc Guard training montages - The new recruits!

[Icicle Frost 8]

I would like Icicle to become a guard, a lunar guard specifically and I thought it'd be fun to do it in the form of a rp rather than just typing something up. I was considering making this a small group rp but I'm not particularly great at group rps so I'm not sure about it but as far as what the rp will entail, some slice of life, sparring, maybe some adventure and action. What sort of ponies would I be looking for to do this with? Well, some lunar guards/night watch guards, regular guards, perhaps a Shining Armor since he is guard captain of the royal guard though I think he'd just be a cameo if this is a group rp. Another would be Princess Luna though again, if this turn into a group rp, she'll probably just make cameo appearances as needed.

 

Players-

Snow Frost: Icicle Frost (Recruit)

Dapper Charmer: Mist Twister (Private)

ENNebula: Eternal Night (Warrant officer and trainer)

The Lonesome Spectre: Dark Star (Squad Captain/Sergeant)

Emerald Bolt: Emerald Bolt (Private First Class)

 

Cameos-

Shining Armor: Snow Frost

Princess Luna: (unassigned)

it sounds interesting, do you have the rules figured out, o ya need help with it

[Icicle Frost 8]

Uhm... I haven't really thought that far into it so none at the moment aside use commonsense and no godmodding/etc.

[Dapper Charmer 591]

Could I join with my OC Mist Twister (link in SIG) as a Luna royal guard?

[Mentis Soliloquy 3,025]

@,

 

I can certainly help and would like to join either Sapphire and Emerald are guards so either of them can join to help you and your OC.

I'm interested in this. I have two character that works for the Royal Guard. One is a pegasus, by the name of Virtus Vermillion, working in the Solar Guards, while the second is a threstal, Eternal Night, who is a Lunar Guard. My threstal will most likely be the one joining since I'm guessing that the setting will mainly be during the night.

Twist is a-okay to join, threstal are kinda sorta appropriate since all we really know about the lunar guard is that they work directly under Luna and that they're 'all' threstals though its only an assumption since all known lunar guards kind of are threstal.

Go with whichever you'd prefer, I will be limiting it to one character per per player, with the exception of cameos of other characters.

Like I said for Emerald, either will work but Eternal will be more appropriate.

Sorry to say but I'm not very keen on hybridized ponies. :c

Dark Star recently became a Captain within the Guard, but just average Captain, maybe you could have him of some use in the RP?

Perhaps but the ranking would be lower since Shining Armor is captain of the royal guard. Your character may be captain of a group/squad of other guards but his rank in the system will be lower.

Canon wise, its post season 5.

Alright, I think that enough players for the moment. Also, tonight and most of tomorrow I'll be having trouble staying connected to the internet so please do try to bare with me.

Its alright with as long as your careful about who you bite.

[Mentis Soliloquy 3,025]

@, 

 

I tend to play the vampirism down a lot it's really more scope for me to write with no, biting sprees I promise.

Fair enough~

 

As for everyone in general, I think I have a good read on who is who but if you want to place something specific, do let me know. I'll go ahead and post what positions I think each pony would play. If you have any questions or want something different, feel free to say so! ^-^

[Your Nightly Spectre 1,061]

@, @,

 

Plot twist: What if there is no Lunar Guard, and those were only dressed up soldiers on the Nightmare Night episode!

 

Oh and, I am sure Captain isn't the highest rank within any sort of nation, is why I ranked Star to that rank. I mean, do we really know the Equestrian rank grades? If they do have Captains that would probably mean there are superior ranks such as Commander and such.

[LMercury 40]

@

 

That plot twist would make me sad, lol.

 

Anyways, from my viewpoint, I think the ranking could go like this:

 

Private

Lance Corporal

Corporal

Sergeant

Staff Sergeant

Second Lieutenant

First Lieutenant

Captain

Major

General

Captain General

Master General

[Icicle Frost 8]

Its hard to say either of you are right or wrong. There's very little of the Lunar guard shown and just as little shown about how the guard's ranking system would work. Though, the lunar guard does have somethings in-common with Flutterbat so there may be something to it.

 

Anyways, what do you guys think of the positions?

[Your Nightly Spectre 1,061]

What got me thinking about the plot-twist is the fact that we actually see Canterlot Nightguards of some sort...

 

 

Doesn't look too bat-pony, now does it? Which just really gets me thinking if the batponies were more of a nightmare night thing.

 

Private

Lance Corporal

Corporal

Sergeant

Staff Sergeant

Second Lieutenant

First Lieutenant

Captain

Major

General

Captain General

Master General

 

And yeah, I'd agree with this.

My personal theory that they are Luna's personal guards.

We should combine our necromancy powers and revive this.
