ooc Firestorm (OOC, still accepting)

[Torrent505 370]

Haha now now frozen don't be short changing yourself and the other players, you guys have stuck around and have let me be able to tell this story and given me so much to work with and plenty of twists and turns in the story. As the GM I have to try and guide the RP, it's the players that make it a story worth telling, I'd be nothing if you guys hadn't been so committed and wanted to be a part of the story. I can't thank you all enough for how active and committed you have been, it's the least I can do to make the story as interesting and fun as possible for each of you. And really thank you guys, I never thought I'd ba apart of a RP that broke 2000 posts and I really hope we can all stick around to see this epic to the end.

 

(Oh also you mentioned Embers following the group in the last post but Steel and all the fillies left and are now at the diamond dog lair. Though I think Grell and Sapphire are still close to where everyone was.

@, @, @@Waterfall,

FIRESTORM THE RP SUMMARY

 

The firestorm RP all begins with Celestia catching a mysterious illness, it is very severe and in a matter of hours she dies. Her death is not a gentle or quiet one, instead the sun rages out of control and a firestorm engulfs the planet. Only a lucky few survive, if you can call being plunged into an eternal night and a slowly freezing planet lucky.

 

In the northern boundaries of Equestria near the crystal empire something awakens, it merges with the remains of Sombra and overtakes a dying stallion fusing with him to create North Wind. He is a spirit of cold, darkness, fear and death. He wishes to see the world die slowly, for the world to freeze over as all life struggles in fear to survive. However something catches him off guard and delays his plans, a small filly with the power to control cold and so she is able to control him.

 

Ice Crystal however is not able to delay his plans for long, merely to change them. North Wind begins to manipulate her, convincing her that she can become a princess and rule the world, with his help of course. So North Wind sets out with the new goal not to kill the world but to enslave it for this filly which is now his puppet.

 

 

Our group of heroes began to form just outside of Ponyville several lucky survivors with various different backgrounds:

 

> Wanderlust: an earth pony stallion who has wandered beyond Equestria and all across the world, he is a herbalist with a deep hatred for diamond dogs and a past much darker than he lets on.

> Embers: A unicorn on the edge between being a colt and a stallion Embers was aspiring to be a warrior and learning to be a swordsman when the firestorm struck. He hasn't taken the end of the world very well and seems to have his sanity hanging by a thread or has it already snapped or is it all an act?

> Sapphire: she's in love with Grell. (Uh... Really that's all I can say for her right now, we really need to see her develop a bit more haha)

> Grell: like an undertaker the unicorn Grell has a deep knowledge and respect for death, though he fights it as much as he embraces it. He is the groups medic. He also fights with a scythe and has the ability to kill with a look, though to do so knocks himself unconscious. He can also revive someone who dies though if he does that he loses his magic forever.

> Steel: a moody and dark Pegasus stallion that keeps mostly to himself Steel was once an assassin for Luna. He has a strict honor code and his word is worth as much as his life to him. He also has a demon sealed within him, this demon know as spawn is very dangerous and Steel has no control over him only the ability to keep him suppressed.

> Runedawn: this earth pony stallion is a blacksmith and forger from an ancient order know as the Earthstikers. He has the ability to use and craft runes, symbols of great magic and power. He has a strong spirit, heart and mind. His ancestry gives him a deep connection to the planets core and the ability to magically interact with the earth itself.

> Willow: a Pegasus filly coming to age Willow is a heart healer meaning she can see into the hearts of other ponies and help work to heal the damages done to them. She was adopted by the princesses and considered both of them to be her mothers. When Celestia died it effected her greatly as she had been at Celestia's side trying to help heal her only to be teleported away as the end came. It was also found out that Celestia put some of her magic to control the sun into Willow.

 

This was the original group that set out together, (we gained a couple later and lost serval player who quit the RP) they decided to travel to Canterlot to see if they could find Luna or anything that would help them in this dark world.

 

During their travel they met a pack of diamond dogs that lived in the Everfree forest. These dogs attacked them, first wanting to use them as food or slaves and then realizing the power Willow had to steal that power for their own. The group fought the Packs Alpha a dog named Rex and their Seer named Mad Dog. In the end the group was able to defeat them but spared the dogs. It was later revealed Mad Dog had succeeded in stealing some of Willows power and contacted the other diamond dog packs alerting them to the group and the power they had.

 

(This concludes part 1 of the summary I am now creating for the RP. What do you guys think? I'm stopping here because I'm tired and will post the rest tomorrow)

I think it's great so far.

[Candela 18]

May I join? You can call me by Candela or Annika (my real life name), it does not matter.

 

Here is the link to my character, Candela. (It is quite of a read, though.)

http://mlpforums.com/page/roleplay-characters/_/candela-r6047

[Starbound 150]

Totally let Candela join!

 

She's my real life best friend (who just happens to be a girl), which I invited to the forums in the first place!

[Candela 18]

(who just happens to be a girl)

Emphasis on that.

[Torrent505 370]

Hahahaha well starbound putting in a good word for you defiantly helps make it easy to accept you into the RP and I was totally going to call attention to that as well Starbound haha got to say don't know what difference being a girl makes hahaha

 

@@Candela

 

I think your OC would fit in perfectly, I mean in a world without a sun a bright pony like that is want anyone would want with them. Would you want her to join us while we're in this big fight right now or after we finish it. I think either way would work, if you are in the fight you can just wake up where the root cage was or just find us while wandering after the fight. Also you might want to figure out how you survived the firestorm and I'm sure starbound can catch you up on all the story

[Candela 18]

I'm not sure, is it okay if my character is hiding from the battle, but staying close enough as to observe it?

[RunsWithSquirlz 274]

Hey,

 

  I'm not sure how you feel about Non-pony species but here I go:

 

Whisper Woods

 

-Everfree Forest Outskirts

 

Her power would be her ability to "communicate" with Nature. She has basic magic skills and is knowledgable about natural remedies.

 

Hope you like~

[CrimsonWeb 786]

Im starting to think....That embers is the least OP person here xD Anyways, Im sure you can join its up to wander tho

[Starbound 150]

Well, Candela can only glow. I would hardly call that OP.

 

Embers has a stinkin' sword made of the SUN!

[CrimsonWeb 786]

Yeah, But its not really yet a sword xD I guess that is true though Beat me there starbound xD

[Starbound 150]

XD

[CrimsonWeb 786]

Mmmmm.... It also kinda seemes like embers point is getting taken away Now we have so many ponys that can fight seers

[Starbound 150]

But Embers has that special commitment, and that makes him the best pony for the job!

[Sanctified Absence 126]

Nah. Shadow can't do crap besides distract and confuse. Besides, anypony who knows how to read auras can quickly find out that they're illusions.

[CrimsonWeb 786]

Yeah...He does really want his coat back, plus he is filled with rage for mad dog to die xD

[Starbound 150]

And Willow and Melody can read auras!

 

MuHAHAHAHAHAHAH

[CrimsonWeb 786]

Well, there also god kids xD so yeah, kinda OP :3

[Sanctified Absence 126]

Yeah, Shadow can read the very basics of auras, as in Light, Dark, Order, Chaos and magnitude, not feelings or any of the more advanced factors like exact location... Looks like I'll have to think of something more deceiving if Shadow ever wants to manipulate the group, because let's be honest he's not the kind to make friends.

[Starbound 150]

They are not gods!

 

Ever since their introduction I've been trying my best to balance out these characters, and I think I've done a good job, considering I had to listen to Dashian'ss complaints!

[CrimsonWeb 786]

Thats true, they are balanced, but we need KINDA OP ponys to help us with all the crazy stuff torrent is throwing at us xD Mostly is just insanely mad with the seers

[Starbound 150]

Fine! You can call them the kinda OP characters, but not anything more!

Edited March 16, 2014 by Starbound

[CrimsonWeb 786]

Well, thats fine. We DO need kinda OP ponys, plus we have grell and steel, so that kinda makes the fights hard for us not so OP ponys xD

[Torrent505 370]

Eh well we've only really had blissful chaos join so far and like he said distractions are more his thing, waterfall's character seemed able to fight but has been silent for a bit and we'll have to see when he comes back. Candela doesn't sound like a warrior and runswithsquirlz' OC whisper woods sounds like she'll be a lot like wanderlust.

 

@@Candela

That sounds perfect, unless anyone objects Candela is currently watching the battle just out of sight.

 

@@RunsWithSquirlz

I'd love to have a Deer in the party, I think it would be very cool. You'll have to send me a pm though so we can discuss her magic use, just because her magic is similar to my characters but will be very different too.

Edited March 16, 2014 by Torrent505

[Starbound 150]

I'm fine with Candela having her OC watching the great battle of all things awesome! but Candela would have to make sure not to get too close.

 

 

Also, are you giving her brohoofs because she is new?
