ooc Crystal Requiem: The Rise of King Sombra OOC

@,

 

Agreed. And now you see why she should have read Aegis' file.

 

 

 

Aegis is more like a prick . He hit Gloom all cause he didn't like what he was saying. Only thing Gloom did was pull a knife, but he didn't use it. Aegis punched Gloom many times and put a hoof to his throat. So tell me, who is the real dick in this situation?

 

You did say 'we all have our characteristics'. Anyway, arguing isn't going to get us anywhere. Point is, Gloom has been quite rude and disrespectful. Aegis underwent military training, and in his mind, Gloom's behaviour shouldn't be tolerated. He did go overboard, but it's intentional.

[Gloomfury 243]

Yeah, intentionally being a dick. But I see your point.

[SilverHeart 741]

Can we watch the language guys? This is still a forum for fans of a kids show. Thank you.

[Gloomfury 243]

Dude, we all know kids cuss. It starts in elementary school and all the way to adulthood. Fact. But I don't like to cuss a lot. I think people who cuss a lot just dose it cause they cant think of anything good to say. So They just say f f f f mother f thinking it with make a there point clear or something. So I will cut it down.

Seconded.

 

Also, I'd describe Eclipse as lawful neutral, bordering on lawful stupid, since alignment was brought up. Sure he's smart, not stupid in that way, but his duty always comes first.

[SilverHeart 741]

Indeed. I know children swear like no tomorrow but I find it to be bad form after a certain age. Thank you very much for toning it down.

 

Since we are all talking about alignments Snowy is actually supposed to be lawful neutral, although in this he probably has come off as lawful evil. He puts Equestria's welfare above all else. You could even make an argument for him being lawful good (if only you're Equestrian.

 

Silver Heart is Neutral good leaning towards lawful good.

[Gloomfury 243]

He's still a butt-hole.

[EcstaticWind 572]

I've tried to resist, but I can't. Alignments.

 

Aegis is either Chaotic Good, Chaotic Neutral or Lawful Neutral, depending on how you look at it.

 

Poppy is Lawful Neutral. And despite having the clearest character, I'm not quite sure what to do with her.

 

Kine is Unaligned. Because he really doesn't care enough to choose a side

[SilverHeart 741]

So I know it's a bit into the RP but this is how combat is going to work. Basically this is like any other RP when it comes to combat, evading or hiding from the enemies. I personally recommend the latter two as you have a lower chance of getting killed. Windbreaker and I will decide on it. I can't speak for Windbreaker but I try to be fair (and often lean towards being "too kind" or "lenient"). If you dislike this idea we are open to suggestions like rolling dice or something entirely 

 

Anyway in case it isn't clear what I mean I'll provide a few examples below.

 

I'm going to combine the combat and evasion examples into one example because I'm short on time and rather lazy.

 

Example below:

 

The forest opened up to a large clearing. A flood of relief hit Twilight as she took in the wonderful sight. There were beautiful lilies and lilacs, a crystal clear pond, even the sun and sky were clearly visible. This truly was a piece of paradise in Tartarus. The sun radiated a warmth that could only be matched by the kindness radiated by Celestia herself. She walked over to the water as she slid the saddlebags off her back. The mare closed her eyes and lowered her head into the pool. The coolness of the water felt wonderful as she greedily swallowed mouthful after mouthful until she could no longer hold her breath. The serene ripples of the pond hosted the reflection of a unicorn, one she hardly recognized. Twilight's pristine lavender coat had been marred by the sap, mud and other detritus of the Everfree Forest. Her once kempt mane now perfectly mirrored the wild and untamable state of the forest surrounding her.  

 

The sound of breaking branches awakened her from her stupor. How could she have been so foolish? This clearing was no piece of paradise, it was a terrifying trap. It seemed as if it were made for tricking ponies by lulling them into a false sense of security. Twilight scanned the forest around her hoping that being in the center of the clearing would give her an advantage over her would be predator. All of the trees and bushes all looked so sinister to her now. Even the flowers that seemed so wonderful mere moments ago looked dead and lifeless now.

 

Across the pond appeared a timberwolf, a terrifying creature composed of a series of branches, sticks, and wood held together by ancient magic. The wooden creature stared her down. She knew there was no getting away from it this time. She was too exhausted to run any further, she knew that her only chance was to try and defeat it. I'll only have one chance at this...I've got to get this right. Her reservoir of magic was nearly empty. The timberwolf lunged at Twilight, jaws opened wide, ready to tear at her throat. Twilight rolled to the side hoping she was fast enough to dodge and that she'd be able to follow it up with a magic attack...

 

(Success)

 

Twilight successfully dodged the timberwolf's lunge. She immediately turned around and poured all of her magic into a series of concussive blasts. Every single spell hit their mark shattering the timber wolf into a series of splinters. (End of example)

 

 

Okay well I went a bit overboard there. Anyway...um...is it clear how this works? Because I'm somewhat unsure if I did a good job. Also I really apologize that I am rarely ever able to write that well for RP's...I'm unsure of why.

@@Gloomfury,

 

Your latest post intrigues me somewhat. You say that Selune is the only one who knows what respect is. Could you please clairfy what exactly your definition of the word 'respect' is? 

[Gloomfury 243]

@@Windbreaker, 

 

I use it is as a term for someone who treats others as equals, or to treat someone with well regard.

Edited October 18, 2013 by Gloomfury

[EcstaticWind 572]

Interesting. That somehow makes sense.

 

Personally, I get my definition of 'respect' from the Oxford Dictionary.

Just a head's up to everyone. I'll be away for two days while I apply to the Australian Military Reserves, so I probably won't be online tomorrow or Friday.

I have no idea. If he's dropped out, I wish he'd tell us.

So sorry it took me so long to reply: I thought I had done already!

[Gloomfury 243]

And I'm waiting to come back in again.

[SilverHeart 741]

And I'm waiting to come back in again.

Uh...is there some reason preventing your OC from talking to others? I'm genuinely curious, I can't remember.

[Gloomfury 243]

@@SilverHeart, 

Well sense I'm pretty sure most of the others don't like him, and he hatss two of them with a great passion now. It would make it hard for him to stat a conversation. And the only one he likes nor is Darkeye and that's cause she was the first  pony to be nice to him. What would you do in his hooves?

If I was in his posiion in real life I would probably just stew and hate them or try and make a better impression over time. Since this is just a RP I would suggest trying to talk to the others he hasn't directly angered. So pretty much anyone other than Snowy and Aegis...and possibly Eclipse. Possibly talk to Kinetic, I'm not sure if Windbreaker will make him to hold a grudge or not.

[Gloomfury 243]

Alright, I'll think something up.

[EcstaticWind 572]

Kinetic doesn't hold grudges. Well, not in this RP, anyway. But he'd be kind to Gloomfury unless he's given a reason to hate him. The rest depends Gloomfury the player.
