Rarity Share Posted January 13 Oh why hello darlings, why don't you come in and look around? As you can see, I have been hard at work creating the new accents and designs for the upcoming grand premier of some fantastic changes for the area of this place that puts on those adorable story driven plays .... Arr Pay Jee I believe Spikey Wikey calls them. Strange name if you ask me, but to each her own. Spike, Discord, and Big Mac seem hugely interested in the ability for ponies to be able to create custom characters that they can play as, so they came to me for inspiration and ideas. I'm not really a coder, but I do know a thing or two about managing a team to get something creative off the ground. So, pretty soon all the ponies here who love to dress up as somepony else will be able to do so in those areas of MLP Forums. Your old musty dusty database that just sat there on the shelf was barely any fun. Also, now I have an excuse to maybe break out some of my Shadow Spade collection.

raykv423 949 Share Posted January 13 (edited) What about OCs, especially mine's? Do I get to RP as my OC in this or not? Or do I go OOC and be myself in this? Edited January 13 by raykv423 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
PawelS 1266 Share Posted January 13 This is a great idea! However, sometimes I need to play as multiple characters in one post, so I'm not sure how it will work... 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites Badges

Character is character. If you want to user your OC, absolutely. If you want to use an official cannon character, you can do that too. 1 minute ago, Califorum said: I'd gladly take Maud Pie or some of my OCs! What if Maud doesn’t wanna go? I mean she could be busy analyzing some rare mineral. Oooooh, this is going to be fun rolling this out. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites Badges

The way I understand it as, its like profiles of characters you post as, but when you post as it has your name and the characters picture rather than that of your profile? 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites Badges

Jeric 44992 Author Share Posted January 13 Moments ago, Califorum said: Can't wait to use this! Will this replace character sheets? Yes and no. I’ll lock the old sheets to new entries but keep them visible. The system has all the same fields so it’s a simple copy and paste job to carry over. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites Badges

I was planning on creating new characters anyways so I will wait until they are locked. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites Badges

Thanks @Jeric Btw, it's probably new at this since I recently created my OC for the first time so maybe any tips, advice, rules, dos and don'ts or something? 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Will Guide 19242 Share Posted January 13 I'm still a little confused by the original topic. But if this will allow Will Guide (my Unicorn and Changeling Personas) a chance to do a little more interaction, I would like to get in on the action 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites Badges
