We're always welcoming newcomers! 
Just fill out the character forum, and I'll review it ASAP.

Would you like a summary of things that have happened so far, or do you want to read all the pages in the RP?

[Jack Baker 698]

If you could summarize, I'd be ok with that.

I'm using a character called Raze, a traveling mercenary for hire with a guardian spirit.

I like the character! His origins are actually quite similar to my main character's origins (Samurai Equine).  I could see the two of them becoming close friends and perhaps partners in battle.
But remember, this RP is trying to stay close to the tone of the show (with some slight embellishing here and there). So if you are okay with that, then... Welcome aboard! Feel free to start RPing any time! 

[Jack Baker 698]

Alright then, thanks for letting me join!

Oh btw, would you mind giving me a summary of all the events happening so far?

[Samurai Equine 45,829]

@ExplosionMare, @Pastel-chan

By the way, your music choices? LOVED THEM!  I'm definitely adding them to my music collection.
Hope my music choices weren't too weeby for ya. He is a 'Japanese' pony after all, so it made sense to me that he would sing in that language.

This guys sounds like my character. I think if we encounter one another, we might get along. That or we might get into a stare down and fight Jojo style. 

 

@Samurai Equine

Also, who’s next to perform?

There's no set order or anything. Anyone can jump in and perform whenever they want. Feel free to go next, if you like.

I actually really like songs in other languages cause sometimes the voices are just better.

And I’m glad I could add to your music collection! Personally I’d recommend the whole Flashdrive album that “Purple” is from. You might want to skip “Black” and “Red” though if you don’t like cursing or heavy metal.

Sorry to cut you a little short there. My character would have loved to meet yours, but I'm balancing two stories at once.

BTW, I'm not familiar with that song. Who sings it? 

[Dynamo Pad 10,777]

@Samurai Equine @Astral Vision

I saw the response of Dynamo and Astral were to keep watch in case something had happened. Would Dynamo still be able to sing, or would he be skipped as he has to keep watch? If it’s the latter, then maybe it could help his character development as he would feel left out on having fun. Maybe he has trouble saying how he truly feels. Since he still feels sad that he couldn’t work together with looking through the book on his family history, while trying to to seem selfish or something along those lines.

It’s really an original song i wrote myself.

I don't see why he couldn't do both, if he wanted. The majority of the population is attending the concert, so he could keep an eye on everyone while taking part in the festivities at the same time.

Ah, I see now. Well, if you've got any musical talent IRL, you should record it some time! I'm sure there are people that would love to hear it.

[Pastel Heart 6,463]

@Samurai Equine I'm glad you liked it! I was looking forward to making that post for awhile haha. I love that song too~

I also considered Phone Call by 2DCat as it's also a Pastel worthy song and actually sounds close to how I'd imagine her singing voice, but maybe I'll save that for the end of the RP plot; like, give it a Love Is In Bloom vibe :3

That's true and I didn't really think about that. Also, is there a limit on how many songs one can sing?

@Dynamo Pad

I think it's just one song per customer, but if Samurai says otherwise you could sing more?

@Pastel-chan

If you're using this RP to build up your character, do you think Pastel might get her cutie mark in this story? If so, probably not until towards the end I'd imagine.

I remember Samurai had sung two songs, so I wasn't sure if there was a limit on songs. Now I have to think on what song to use. I had two to three songs in mind, but I wasn't sure.

The only limit is your own personal limit.

I did two, but if anyone else wants to "sing" two or more, feel free! You can marathon some songs back-to-back. You can "sing" a few, let someone else perform, then take the stage again. Whatever you like!
The RP is fun, so just have fun with it!

I didn't join the RP with that in mind specifically, so that depends on what happens I guess owo Pastel is a wild card and doesn't operate on a timeline. Also if she got her cutie mark as she is now then I'd have a harder time requesting art haha

@Windy Breeze I think you misunderstood my post, I was helping the mare in the coffin, not your other OC.

@Astral Vision, @Dynamo Pad

So, I'm not really sure what kind of plot is unfolding right now, but would it be okay if it turns out that whatever Astral is detecting is actually a false alarm or something? I think we should hold off until later. Not saying abandon it, just save it for another time. I think, story wise, everyone is ready for Day 2 to be over so we can move on to Day 3. We all ready covered two big stories, and I was only planning on doing one story line for Day 2.

I just want to make sure we're all on the same page in terms of pacing. 
Trust me, I understand. We all have great stories we want to tell. And we'll get to it, in due time. Even I am holding back story lines I want to explore. But I think it's best, no matter what event is happening, that anyone else has the option to be pure slice-of-life in case the current stories don't interest them. We don't have to fill every slow moment with a major event/crisis.

@Samurai Equine

No worries, it wasn't going to be a large threat, but I understand your concern. Astral realized it was a false alarm as you guessed, and is currently on the stage. The pacing seems good for now, but let me know if you have any specific plot in mind.
