.............Seriously i hate my luck sometimes. (sigh) I was sooooo frikin close to finishing, i just had to finish "Parents:", and put her in a location. But i'm running out of houses. (Even factionless isn't an option anymore.)

I'm sure Everfree and/or Stormwing would love to have you.

 

Seriously. It's lonely over here.

 

 

My computer's misbehaving, so I may be a little inactive, depending on how long it takes me to figure out what's up with it.

I thought you were going to make a Everfree Char? They still have plenty of room lol. Or are you talking about a second OC? Wait did you even submit an OC? I forget... I don't even remember approving an OC of yours... I think I'm losing my mind.

Yorrick is back to finish off the uncovered lore behind each of the six factions.

He's looking for certain people to help assist with fleshing out these nations, which I've already put my hand up for. The more the merrier I suppose.

I'd totally hop on the bandwagon as well, but I don't have a fimfiction account. Probably should. I might make one once I fix my internet.

What faction is Crystal Fiire in? If she's not part of a faction but factionless I'm going to now say the Uncertain Boundaries (a.k.a. factionless) is now close to players.

 

Yesh, Crystal is factionless.

 

Cant wait to get started. Hope I didn't steal anyone's spots if they had asked for it before hand O.o

Sorry the thing about Snowy being Captain must have been a typo or a mistake. That was his goal for his career. He never reached it. He did have a fairly decent position for his age though. I you need me to explain more I will later. I only had enough time for a short explanation.

I suppose he felt some guilt after leaving a farewell entry of that tone and after seeing the comments left by some sympathetic, yet scolding people.

Yah i am but its a pair of siblings but the Everfree one, Shadow Hunter, isn't coming along as fast as his sister Twisted Gear. (Seriously Gear is nearly done) Thing is Gear could only really fit in with Moon & Star, Factionless, maybe Whitegold, and (even less possibly) The Cult.

 

Edit: (I was planning on Making her the researcher for Whitegold that made the first gem golem, or something like that)

Edit 2: @@AnonBrony,

Well i kinda did but again i didn't finish that char in time either, Earthborn filled up before i was done.

Are you having trouble writing the bio? I honestly wouldn't think it take you this long. I mean yeah it take you maybe an hour or more to think up everything from scratch and write it but it almost seems to me like you writing a book. Have you not thought of everything about your char yet or having trouble thinking of stuff? Or do you just not have the time to write it? Or maybe its that you have to keep changing it cuz of spots in Houses? heheh

 

No offense or anything but this is taking a while and you one of the only people who still need to submit a bio...

its more of a "I never do anything in half measures" kinda thing. I'm writing a hell of allot of stuff to be honest i could probably shorten it allot but well refer to previous statement. (It kinda is like a book by now..........wow maybe your right i shouldn't go overboard after all.(holy crap i just checked the word count and i have more than 6 thousand words. umm my bad?))

[GreyScholar 1,584]

I still feel you should capitalize on the "amoral scientist that uses pony souls to power her machines and inventions" idea and honestly consider the Cult of Laughter. I personally believe that is a really interesting idea.

 Well i could but id like to have one character that isn't a horrible psychopath, as is her brother is even worse, and writing psychopaths all the time might go to my head (id be concerned for my sanity(not really)). To be honest the idea interests me too but id like one character to have a possibility of having a good ending (cause right now both deserve to die).

 

Edit: (Actually i probably would have gone with it too but The Cult filled up........)

Edited October 22, 2013 by Tricksters Pride

[GreyScholar 1,584]

I wouldn't call all members of the Cult of Laughter psychopaths, sure many of them are broken and insane but at the same time you have mostly harmless ponies that simply want happiness and joy in their lives. The Cult of Laughter is complicated like that, not helped by the fact the Cult is made up of mostly mad ponies.

 

Of any case I checked and I do believe that there is one spot available left.

Edited October 22, 2013 by EquestrianScholar

[Tricksters Pride 100]

Yah i know that but my character..........make that characters  are psychopaths born and raised, and have done horrible things before the sisters even disappeared. Shadow has hunted ponies since he was 10, and Gear slaughtered her mother (admittedly for good reason but still) and put her parents into machines and even modified their souls. seriously my characters are both bad.

 

Edit: (.........(sigh) When i put it like that i see your point in being beyond redemption)

Edited October 22, 2013 by Tricksters Pride

[GreyScholar 1,584]

Hmm... you know that might actually be a problem, because before the royal sisters disappearance there weren't any psychopaths. At least none shown and murder I'd like to say was nearly completely unheard of.

 

It is expected for there to be evil among ponies in the Equestia Divided setting, yet that is the product of the war and the fact there was no one willing to stop the conflict from growing.

 

Your character's parents and brother being so horrible before the royal sisters disappearance... well that would have to be very much justified.

 Yah but remember that appearances are not always as they seem. Allot of ponies live in big cities some may disappear and it would not be noticed even by near omniscient beings (if they where). Even then Celestia could only watch throughout the day and that makes the night playtime for the ...... less kind elements of Equestria. But to be honest Luna's re-emergence would cause a big shift in the underworld of Equestria (because she is active in the night) and i plan to account for that.

 

Edit: (you know have the underworld elements run and hide because the new level of effectiveness in the night guard)

@Tricksters Pride @EquestrianScholar

 

I suppose that if these ponies in question that have always been so horrible were from somewhere other than Equestria, like @Marathon's Lila Fireheart is, then it might be acceptable for them to be... trigger-happy. We must remember that Equestria was a bastion of peace and happiness. Before the disappearance of the Celestial Sisters, killing was an entirely foreign concept to all ponykind.

 

We have witnessed a war in the series. Between the Appleloosans and the Buffalo. And we must remember that they used apple pies as weapons. Killing, even those of other species, is just something that doesn't happen pre-disappearance.

Don't be so sure as in this roleplay the good ending will actually involve the Mane Six being redeemed and working together to set things right.

 

This is MLP:FiM, no matter how dark and grim it gets there can always be a happy ending.

 

Edit: ... wait, I worded that wrong and seems foolish now that I look at it.

 

What I mean is that anything I create involving the Mane Six turning evil or everything becoming grimdark I will provide an opportunity for things to be made right. As such in my stories there always be at least a 'bittersweet' ending.

 

I mean realitically even if the Mane Six become good again and reforge their bond to save Equestria... they would still have to deal with the guilt of being the cause of death for so many ponies for the rest of their lives.

Yes but i was going to angle it as the killers where just that good, and where in the process of running and hiding after Luna's re-emergence. That and did we ever even see the big cities almost all shows where in Ponyville which could be an isolated place.

 

Tell yah what give me examples of why the underworld couldn't exist and i will try to counter them. (Cause honestly i don't want to argue with you Dez i like you too much for that)

Yah i highly doubt that my characters could be redeemed or really seen as anything but abominations. (I mean sure they have good reasons and aren't actually bad ponies at heart. But Shadow hunts ponies for fun and Gear plays with souls like toys.....)

 

Edit: Still they are really messed up characters.

I'm flattered.

 

I'm not denying there's a pony underworld, even before the Sisters disappear. Heck, I'd love to see an Earth Pony villain in S4 that's basically an Al Capone or a Boss Tweed or something. But if there is a pony underworld, it wouldn't be the same as ours. Equestria runs on different principles than Earth. It's not inherent to ponykind to kill. Never, in the show, do you see a pony using lethal force. If there was an underworld, they wouldn't kill. At worst, they'd lie and blackmail and sell drugs of some sort.

......Dammit you make a good point but i actually have a decent counter for that. Gears not really the killer of the pair, the only people she killed in the Pre-Divided State was her mother. (and she had a good reason (and it was an accident)) but her brother was kinda well he took allot of stuff before he lashed out and then he......broke. Also his first kill......you know what its just special circumstances, i'll PM you it cause i don't want to hog the topic.

Luna's re-emergence

 

What's all this about the re-emergence of Luna, though? Did I miss something while my computer was down? Or are you just talking about her canon redemption in the show?

oh just cannon redemption i just worded it funny sorry. I had them active before Luna was around, and when Luna appeared all of the underworld had to run and hide as the night was no longer as safe.

Wait a minute.......Wait a minute! "Changling Invasion Episode" come on they so used lethal force at least off screen and most likely on screen even if it dose not seem like death.
