Ok, if this one is not replied to I will feel obligated to send a PM.

Is my OC good to go?

I bet the Dancer would be somepony that not only has an exquisite figure, but also one with lots of charm and cares a lot about their appearance, not just because of their vanity but also because it can double as a weapon. Plus, a weakness to lustrous items and objects of extravagance. I imagine the Dancer would be quite shallow as well.

 

Also, I agree that the Musician would use sounds and melodies to enchant his/her victims to do as he/she wishes, but what about other afflictions other than control? I think the Musician would be constantly talking in rhyme as well.

 

To be honest, I'm kind of hoping to face the Artist at some point in the RP. Star Rain is an artist as well(it makes up half of her special talent, represented by the cyan star), so art contest commence!

I believe the horn changing color based on mood is too much, no only unicorn has this trait and it is not the sort of thing that makes sense. Also I need to ask how you would use Lila's magic, you show her at being able to use both fire and necromancy based magic but to what extent?

[AnonBrony 1,468]

Remember he is the scenery expert and can 'paint' areas to be very dangerous places, we have someone else to make the characters though perhaps the Artist would help the Storyteller with such.

...I-I suppose so. Did have i different idea in mind still. But perhaps the Artist can make the Characters and the Story teller, well Tells there story. I was thinking for the Storyteller that well, he tells the story. Whatever he says happens. The catch is he has to say it. So Ponys are going to know what happens. Though hes not going to be able to directly influence a pony unless they are willing. Like he just can't make 'em do something or just tell them to die.

 

Oh but wait... I forgot your not the Composer you're the Storyteller! Oh thast right Mythos Gray. Thats his ability. He becomes the Characters in his tales. But. Thing is thats totally different then what i had in mind for the Artist. What he draws comes to reality yes but whatever he draws looks nothing like a real thing. It comes out of the paper as a black and white ink... thing. And most of his drawings are abstract looking and quick sketches. Not detailed in the least. If he were to draw a Pony it looks nothing like a pony. If eh wer eto draw one though its would probably be like a zombie. Similar to a necromancer. He can "summon" things that are't just the dead. I believe you just becomes his Characters. Like you just become another pony. Become whoever you want really. The perfect assassin. Always incognito. I believe thsoe are different enough yes? You can still make your characters.

Alright I can remove the color changing (but I did have a logic behind it). As far as magic the only necromancy spell she knows are the ghost/zombie ponies (laughing dead of course). The fire spells are all defensive like a shield dome made of fire and such but the fire wont burn unless she wants it too. Along with that the shield dome has a slight "offensive" where she can heat the inside but it wont kill anyone, maybe (slightly)disorient them at the most, but nothing OP. (If you want I make a limit to the amount of times she can make the fire actually set stuff on fire as a buffer so she wont become OP. I also am going here in a few so ill reply to anything else later)

No, because of his status as a Gifted his drawings can take on a reality all their own that will not just be simple drawings. Remember that he is the Artist, and artist does not make mere doodles. Not only that but remember I said 'characters'... that would not count the animals and monsters that a story makes, which is why the Storyteller will need the Artist's help to truly bring a story to life. The Storyteller does not just change is appearance and become a character; he can use his magic to create characters separate from himself.

Well magic takes energy, as has been shown with Twilight, as such just keep it within reason. If you ponies takes being able to take on ponies all by herself over an extended period of time then we have a problem. Edit your bio and I will have it looked over by the one that will be your Moderator.

[Nightfall 3,950]

I just had a thought: one of my OCs could fit the point of The Dancer.

 

But I'd have to write a whole good backstory for her, and that was if applications were still being accepted.

Perhaps the Musician can sprinkle some music into it as well? If they get the right music to go along with the art and the story, it would deal some nasty damage for sure!

Well it wouldn't hurt to try, if you make it good I am willing to consider adding you in.

That is the plan, though at first the players will meet the Gifted individually, with some pairing up as time goes on, before finally all of them together.

Two OCs in this RP...

Why not try?

I'll be back soon with a backstory for my OC. I'll post her page once I'm done, but her name is Greylight, and she's a pegasus.

[Archi the Atmomancer 564]

Doesn't a chap from a few pages back already have dibs on The Composer, or did he withdraw from the RP? If not I would like to request a position as him/her after we get started, I could start writing my app now and have it in by the beginning of the RP.

I know, making mere doodles seems weak. Oh but trust me hes not. Or at least the way i currently see. He has other abilitys. Andd he can make his pictures come actually alive. They just have to be like actual detailed paintings. And in combat he usualyy doesn't have time to sit down and paint. Oh and the Artist can certainly make aniamls and otehr things besides ponies Yes. I just don't knwo how iw oudl do an entire scenery. I guess i could. But really i would want to be able to draw anything. But he doesn't normally draw ponies or anything inteligent. Give something smarts and it will be able to turn is back on you.

Yes and I am still waiting after all this time for them to make a bio.

No, characters would be the forte of the Storyteller not the Artist. Keep in mind the show and what has already been done, also the Artist is a Gifted meaning creating the setting and background will not be as hard as you think. These will not be normal ponies and for as long as they are antagonists they will have what is called a 'villain upgrade'.

 

Each of the Gifted will have a purpose, and their focus will be that will be as tehy are named. Actually the Artist will already be very powerful without being able to bring characters to life. You need to create a challenge? Take a normal forest and make it another Everfree, at least for the area that the Artist paints... and yes he would be able to do such.

The Artist is very powerfull. I don't want him to be weak ofcourse. I just don't want him to be limited to just scenery. And his forte aint Characters or Ponies. And like i said he wouldn't even want to draw an inteligent sentient being capable of stabbing him with a knife. I'm Ok with the scenery thing. i even got an idea for it now. But i would like to be able to draw other stuff too.

You have all manner of beasts, animals, and monsters the Artist could draw... that is a lot of other things.

Whatever. When it comes down to the bios, if we have to create bios. we'll talk about this. As for now I'll just keep comming up with ideas

[The-Master 1,176]

If I was the artist, I would spend all day drawing lots of Stick Figures with guns. Then send them to take over the land and create my own empire.

 

I was away all day so I just had to comment. You guys made me.

Whoa. There are so many things to read. I was busy with many things this week. Seriously, many things.

 

By the way, what are we waiting for? Sorry if this has been mentioned before. My memory is pretty bad since...I don't even remember since when.

 

Also, I wonder if we can, just wondering, make an MMORPG game based on Equestria Divided settings. It's really interesting, thrilling, detailed, medieval, and dark. I think Hasbro may reject it since it contains gore, violence, etc. Hold on! This doesn't mean that I'm going to make one...I didn't say "I'm not going to make one" though.

Can we? I'm not so good at law, especially cyber law.

The Mods are currently doing something to get this started. And Scholar ahs to review some stuff. But as soon as thats done we should be ready.

 

A game? hmm... not an official game. hasbro would never do something like tha. But I'm sure some Bronies migth be willing to make a game.

[GreyScholar 1,584]

I apologize for not being on, I have a few things I need to look over for my moderators and I will be linking Marathon's bio to TheSonicAlicorn to be looked over before approving.

One thing I will say right now is we will not be starting this week but perhaps Tuesday as there is something I would like to go over that could possibly make this roleplay go a lot smoother. You see I have been invited by Key Gear, Tech Administrator of MLP Forums, to help with the PonyRoleplay.com project. I have accepted but since I do not have computer tech skills I have offered to use my roleplay as a means of testing out the site which it seem those of the project are okay with based on all the brohoofs I got with my post in the Introduction thread. If all goes well and it seems that it will work I will be having the Equestria Divided roleplay done on the PonyRoleplay.com.

For all those interested in taking a look and see what I am getting into: http://mlpforums.com/forum/68-ponyroleplaycom-lab/

See there are perks to having 1000 comments on a roleplay that hasn't even started. one of 'em being you get to have your roleplay be the test dummy for a roleplain' website. But seriously woah... like woah. I did not expect this back in september...

 

Also link no work for me =/

Don't think so it brings me to thsi weird searcg engine (that surprisingly wasn't bing) because aparently that URL doesn't work... maybe you typed the link wrong or copy and posted it wrong or something? Try repastin' it. If it was the site it would of still brought us to the MLP forums.
