  1. Thanks for the links. Its actually really good to. Also as a cool little piece of Info, That picture I drew of Arik got added to the fallout equestria group on Deviant Art.
  2. The raider attack was ended not long ago, the new head of Arbu, a griffon by the name of Arik BlackFeather, lead his town's defensive efforts.He almost lost several good ponies in that attack, but he wouldn't have let that happen if he could do anything to stop it and for his efforts Arbu stands for another day, and he got riddled with bullets. Arik sat on the bed in Dr. Silver Heart's office, seemed like he spent a lot of time there lately. Silver Heart was a butterscotch colored unicorn mare with blue eyes and a blonde and tail, definitely easy on the eyes for a pony in Arik's book. The moment Silver stepped into the room it was as if the temperature dropped several degree's, but it was just her glaring icily at the griffin, who despite being one individual seemed to eat through more medical supplies then all of New Arbu. He stared her in the face, she stared back; Arik buckled...yes a full grown griffin buckled to a mare that was at most three fifths his size. "Hi." he said awkwardly trying to avoid the verbal lashing that he knew was coming. She said nothing, for a few moments until she finally let out a loud sign. "Take your jacket off." Silver trotted over to a cabinet and pulled out bandages, gauze, salve tweezers, and purified water. The Griffon removed his black leather jacket, the memento of his now dead wife, off and sat it to the side. Arik's white head feathers were stained rusty brown and his burgundy fur and feathers were matted and moist with life fluids. Silver slid a stool up to him to that she could sit at chest level to the griffon. She levitated the tweezers and the water near her and began her work. She started to dig into his flesh in pursuit of each bullet, she started to talk out loud calling out each bullet she plucked; Arik didn't know if it was intentional or if she was losing herself. "10mm." *Clink* "10mm." *Clank* "10mm." *Clink* ".45 acp." Silver telekinetically dropped the bullets into a metal tray, with each round removed a loud clink clank reverberated through the air as metal struck metal. "5.56." *Clank* "5.56." *Clink* "5.56." Her voice began to crack and her mouth started to scrunch up. "7.62." *Clank* ".308." That one almost pierced through his muscle. "Second degree burns." "Shrapnel...." She couldn't take it anymore and collapsed into Arik's arms crying. He ran his metal talons through her mane in an attempt to comfort her. She was like a daughter to him, and he hated to see her like this. He blamed himself for letting her see him like this, he could easily take care of wounds like this himself, but she had insisted on him letting her handle his wounds. "It's okay little one." His voice was like a soul soothing medicine for her, she had stopped shaking now and seem to gain some composure from the sound of his voice. "Why...why do you do this to yourself? You can't save everypony!" "I'm not trying to, but this town, it's my home...and everyone in it, my family. And be damned if I let anyone take my family. My ambition is going to make Arbu a target, and you all are my responsibility." He leaned down and rested his head atop hers. They don't know how long they stayed like that, the hours seemed to just melt away. It' was night time before he left Silvers home. Arik told her everything knew about himself, everything Arbu was before, and his plans for what he wanted Arbu to be in the future. His wounds where all dressed, and his jacket was stitched up and repaired (she took such great care of him) so he took his leave of her. They exchanged hugs and deep looks at her door. "You do too much." She nuzzled his neck feathers. "I don't do enough." He wouldn't let the town meet an end like it's previous incarnation did. Though they deserved it, he still didn't agree with the fact that it happened. He still loved them. He felt like the entire town saw. He took to the sky, nothing fancy just a low glide so that he could see around the town. The night air in his feathers helped to clear his head as he thought about His relationship with Silver. He knew how she felt towards him and he'd lying through his beak if he said he didn't have feeling for her as well, but damn it she deserved better than him. She didn't need some bullet ridden, trader slash mercenary as her special someone. All he would do is bring her grief as she worried for him during his wasteland excursions, and tears as she licked his wounds clean. Plus he was probably old enough to be her father or grandfather even though he didn't look it (being a cyborg has its advantages). Yet he had these feelings, and he knew those weren't the reasons he wasn't letting them out. No his reason was simple, he couldn't be tied down, at least not yet, not until Arbu was on the map as a prospering trade town. He landed on his house and went in through his rooftop entrance, once in his room he removed the rechargeable powercells from both of his arms and laid down on his bed. For now he'd rest, but tomorrow he would sun bathe and recharge all his powercells then head out for adventure. He had brought ponies back to Arbu, now it was time to revive the commerce. "Maybe I'll head to Tenpony Tower, it's close, and i haven't been there yet." Arik said as he drifted off to sleep.

Stealthbuck Likes: Radgator meat, scavenging, and exploring. Dislikes: being shot at and being given either or decisions. Character Summary: Arik doesn't remember much from his old life; he doesn't remember how old he is, where he's from or even what his parents were like. All he does remember are his name and the words "grievous injuries" and "five point seven three chance of survival". Everything after that is a haze, until he found himself floating in a tank started awake by sirens (some sort of power failure maybe). He had no idea where he was but he definitely didn't feel comfortable in there so he broke out of the tank. His claws landed on the floor first with a metallic clank, he didnt remember if this was normal so he paid it no mind. He wandered around the facility which he learned was called stable 101 from the markings on the walls and the signs above the doors. The place was full of ponies, some with metal parts like him others without. During his wondering he stumbled across some ponies dressed differently with the word "security" written across their clothing. When they saw him the called for a "Doc Slaughter" over a wall intercom, he wasnt close enough to hear the entire context of the statement but he did hear "subdue" come out of the voice box. They tried and failed horribly, before one of the security ponies passed out he pressed an alarm and called out berserker through the intercom. Before Arik knew it he was surrounded by ponies with pistol and small caliber smgs. He barely flinch, but it was enough for them to open fire on him. He got down and covered himself with his wings and stayed like that for a a brief second. The pain was intense but not what he expected, actually the fact that he survived to the salvo to think about surprised him as well as the security ponies. After a few moments of confusion, one of the ponies screamed "sub dermal weave, grenade now!" Arik snapped out of his slack jawed stated and dashed straight at the ponies infront of him crashing through their line, somehow he knew he was headed in the right direction, how he knew didnt matter he just wanted out. He plowed through several other groups of ponies on his way until after several minutes of sprinting he found his exit, and when he got there it just opened for him. "Too easy he thought." But there was his way out and he'd at least try to see where it took him. Several days of wandering and he had finally come to the conclusion that this place was a freaking wasteland (yea i know right?). He decided that he'd take a rest on a small rock, he took up the position and began to drift off to sleep. Before he could even close his eyes fully he was awoken by screeches. A band of griffons must have followed followed him from the stable. They all could fly so fleeing wasn't an option. Arik took to the skies and met his attackers head on, their small arms fire did nothing but break skin and make him feel uncomfortable, whereas the energy weapons burned his flesh and made his underlying muscle warm up. He lashed out at the first griffon and slashed at his armor cause little damage. symbols flared up in his face as he battle with the griffon, the one that caught his attention though was a small picture of talons with the words "super heat" written over them, he focused on the word and symbol until he was pulled out of his pseudo - trance by a slight humming in his left arm. He looked down and saw that his Left talon had began to glow white hot, so he lash out with it again, this time easily cleaving armor, flesh and bone instantly killing his foe. The other griffons flew back a little at the sight, but not to flee. They brought their weapons to bare on Arik and opened fire, he avoided alot of it by flying but he was still getting hit to often by energy guns and i was starting to heat up his muscle causing sever aches through his side. He couldnt get close enough to fight, but he couldnt see where the fallen griffon dropped his weapon either. Two symbols flashed in his eyes, this time one was the an image of a cannon with a coil around it label Gauss rifle the other was a square with a small rectangular barrel coming out of it labelled gatling laser. Unsure of what gauss meant he focused on gatling laser and right before his eyes his right arm began to rearrange itself into a small gatling laser. He pointed his arm at the group of griffons and unloaded his laser payload, they began to drop like flies. Four were left, when their leader called the retreat, they took off in the direction of the stable as fast as they could. An out of range warning flashed in Arik's eyes so he figured he'd see what this gauss rifle was. His arm transformed again and this time into a more slim weapon with a presicion scope on top. He looked through and locked on to one of the fleeing griffons, he pulled the trigger and his arm let out an audible hum as the slug was fired from his arm. He took out one of the fleeing griffons as he readied his next shot he noticed one of the griffons turn around and ready a rocket launcher. He wasn't ready, the griffon launched his missile. Arik fired straight through the missile when it was only a few feet away from him, he took out the griffon but the explosion knocked him out causing him to plummet to the ground. He woke up in a bed, with bloody bandages around his head and torso. He asked where he was out loud, but he didnt expect an answer. A female voice answered by saying Arbu. He tried to sit up but was stopped by a lime green earth pony mare, who suggested that he stay still because of his injuries. Arik ripped off the bandages and declared that he was fine (he didnt trust this mare), when he lean up further a sudden sharp pain shot through him and he coughed up a small amount of blood (internal bleeding from hydrostatic shock). She offered him some "radgator soup", and he reluctantly agreed. He spent the next few days healing his internal injuries. Once he was healed up he participated in radgator hunt and easily slew many of the creatures. They feasted in his honor that night. He continued to live with the mare (Peach Fields), over the next few months they became close friends and eventually lovers. Upon their marriage the town revealed to Arik that they were cannibals. They attempted to get him to perform their rite of passage and earn an Arbu mark so they he could vote on the council, but he declined and simply said that his defense of the town and the love of his wife was enough for him. Years pased and eventually his wife died to illness, with nothing in town to really occupy him he took to flying around the wastelands and taking odd jobs to fill his time. One day he left on one of these odd jobs only to return to a village of slaughtered corpses. He was sad and enraged all at the same time yet, he knew something like this would happen one day. It was only a matter of time until their cannabilism brought the wrath of somepony with the friends and firepower to wipe them out. He cleaned out the town and buried the bodies. Sadly he began a new chapter of his life...rebuild Arbu into something. Personality: A little paranoid because of his amnesia and the fact that those griffons who attacked him after his escape never showed up again, other then that he's level headed most of the time and very ambitious. He puts everything he can into his whatever he's doing and respects everyone he meets until given a reason not to. He has a heart of gold and tends to help anyone he finds struggling in the wastes, often times offering them stable living in Arbu. Even though he is probably just trying to fill the hole in his heart left by his deceased wife and missing memories.
  10. Well work is work, standard stuff. And the day i consider my writing essential is likely the day it stops being fun. I'm saying i'll give it a try, it was already on my reading list just not next up. Not like it'll be more effort to read that instead of whatever i was going to read originally. Oh...little late night research has given me an idea i can use. might make an app tomorrow.
  11. I actually have one on my read later list, but im pressed for time between my writing and work..I'll try to get around to it.
  12. So I feel obligated to ask. I've never read the FoE series, but i have played FO3 and New Vegas and i know some mythos from other FO games. Are there crazy mutated creatures like deathclaws and super mutants, and rad scorpions arounds. I ask because I want to be a part of this, but i don't want to be a run of the mill of a kind creature that escaped from an abandoned stable that was genetically engineered. Kinda like a super mutant. Nothing crazy, just different. Because im different.
  13. Engineer's are usually kindred souls and she has problems with meeting ponies because of her tech talk. I can probably brainstorm some kinda tie into GearShifts bio, shouldn't be to hard. Though that is if it's absolutely necessary, it's kinda out of my comfort zone to write history with OCs im not to familiar with. Beside's you never stop gaining new friends and family members. The fact that he helped make it supports that he could've been maintaining it himself up until he meets a dedicated engineer (unless an engineer that he already knows comes along).
  14. One question. Does the app have to be made specifically for the Freewing Pirates or can anypony within reason join? My OC isn't tied down to anyone position and her goal actually involves travelling around. If you aren't up to taking on unknown ponies, no problem since what she actually did after she got her business set up and she left there's a big blank and can easily be edited to have her meet up with the crew sometime afterwards. GearShift - Chief Engineer GearShift had gotten word from the ponies of the port town that an airship was dry docked for engine repairs earlier today. The unicorn mare squeed joyfully to herself, she'd read much about fantastic flying transports in books she rented while residing in Ponyville. The mare proceeded towards the docks where the ship was said to be awaiting inspection; she could barely keep a straight face as she attempted to control the furious red blush of arousal painted on her face. "Oh, I can't wait to lay eyes on this masterpiece, steam and magic powered generator's, valves of all sorts, solenoid, pneumatic, hydraulic...oh so many ways of harnessing the forces of potential and kinetic energy through fluid compression." She swooned over the idea as calculations of how such a ship could remain a drift in the air.So much to account for. She had been so caught up in her mental ravings that she failed to realize she had not only found the ship but teleported on-board and navigated herself to the engine room. She had left her tool cart outside of the ship out of habit, the last time she teleported with it they ended up of opposite sides of the town. "Hmm..." she said as she rubbed her chin with a hoof. "Looks like I've let my passion unwillingly trick me into trespassing, I'm surprised no one stopped me though." The ship was strangely deserted, but she when she thought about it it made sense. The ship was dry docked, meaning registered; it was damaged, meaning not in any shape to fly currently; She just lucked out, most the crew was probably enjoying shore leave somewhere in town. "Well since im here, lets see what her problem is....shall we?" GearShift gave the ships many generators, pipes, motors, and converters a bow as she began using her telekinesis to remove several bolts that held their face plates on. A young greenish colored unicorn stallion trotted past the threshold of the engine room and took a fleeting look in and continued past without a care in the world. "How thoughtful, a complete stranger is fiddling with the engine of my air ship......huh?" He stopped in his tracks once the thought fully registered in his head. He quickly backpedaled to the door of the engine room so that he could take a look, and sure enough some strange mare was in fact practically crawling into his ships engines. He ran in as quick as he could to confront the trespasser. "Hey." "These O-rings are completely trashed, ozone cracking....what a hoof to the face." she said as she telekinetically flung the elastomer discs over her back and teleport away in a dull flash and returned shortly with a set of replacements. "What?" He said momentarily confused. "Doesn't matter, how'd you get on my ship?" "Look at this! The pressure damage on these hydraulic pistons is crazy, who's the amateur who hasn't been unlocking them so the the natural fluid pressure would return them to neutral positioning." Using her magic she she released all the locks on the hydraulics then carefully removed all the pistons. She drained the fluid from all the pumps once that was done she disassembled the pumps began to heat the area around the cracks on the pistons, they began to drip molten metal, all of which was caught. GearShift applied pressure to each pistol to seal the cracks, satisfied with the results she flash cooled metal pieces. "There, good as new." She said as she began reassembling and replacing the hydraulic system. "WHO THE HAY ARE YOU?!" GearShift pulled her head out out the engine compartment and stared at the stallion for a moment, her mind was still ablaze with possible modifications and memorized blueprints. Finally the situation her body was in caught up with her mind. "Um, I take it you're this ships captain..." "Yep that's what I said." "And I take it that 'Im somewhere i shouldn't be." she said playing the foal. "Yep." the stallion nodded. "This isn't what it...looks like?'" GearShift deadpanned. The young captian's face instantly migrated into his hoof. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Enjoy.
  15. Two things. 1) Future Scootaloo looks like Casshern 2) He would if goku's voice came out of a pony i might die. There should also be a new pony voiced by liam o'brien. Now my things 1) A far a way land type quest thats perhaps a 2-4 episode long arc. Where we get to see more of the world and more technology. 2) A villain thats can even top Discord. How about somepony who was once a pony but through something became and elderitch abomination (same backstory as galactus). 3) A male griffin main character 4) An episode where the main sixes personality flaws are manifest into reality. 5) More more creatures from Tartarus
  16. Fair points. Oh and i watched that review and i do agree with him. I took a personality test awhile back and the three ponies a was most like were Dash, Twilight, and Rarity. It was a little awkward to see Dash get dogged on by the writing (in fact it seem like my entire best pony list gets dogged on the most. i wonder whats up with that?). I honestly feel bad for the mane 6 only when certain things are revealed about em like pinkie little need to be validated (honestly thats the darkest and saddest thing in the entire show i can't even take Pinkie the same way anymore). Me and a friend actually talked about how the town instantly turned into a death trap. My only opinion on that was "Since Twilight got there bad things kind of just happen, the town was probably happy that it wasn't some elderitch abomination this time." I can't really say why i like the episode, i just do...
  17. [unicorns] GearShift World of Equestria (Mad scientist technomage with an urge to show-off.) Astral "Siren" Romance World of Equestria (Drama queen, orchestral rock diva with a royalty complex) [Griffons] Arik BlackFeather FoE Crossover (Bad Flank cybergriffon Mercenary) Pound "Freeflight" Sterling World of Equestria (Loudmouth griffon rapper from the dirty gulch) [Diamond Dogs] Kasimir FoE Crossover (Genius doggy scientist and energy weapon enthusiast) [Dragons] Lyn World of Equestria (Headstrong, adventurous dragon curator with a heart of gold)
  18. Honestly i didn't find it a terrible or even bad. Most ponies say the mane 6 were OOC, not really to me....they really are quite jerkish each in their own way, just enough to make them fun. Only difference here was they all did it in one episode instead of having their own little 20 min block to themselves. That scene were they bragged.....priceless i thought it was hilarious one of the most human scenes in the entire show. Ponyville being a disaster area didn't affect me at all because a majority of the show is in or near ponyville its basically Equestria's equivalent of new york or japan. when something happens it most likely happens in ponyville. But everything that did happen are all plausible problems that couldve occured. The entire episode was a mish mash....Im just weird i like it for the reason it gets hate.
  19. Sitting back in Bio 102 we start talking about horses and crap, im with terms like haunches, docks, croup, and fretlock. Teacher asks how the heck do i know this (since i never freaking read.) I say art of the dress, she cocks an eyebrow and says in a sing song tone "Even though it rides high on the flank......." and I calmly reply in sing song "....Rainbow wont look like a tank" and we finish it together. The class looks at us completely lost and then my phone rings and i cant find the thing. My ringtone http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2R677MV--WI
  20. Roleplay Type: World of Equestria Name: Gear Shift (original name was Morning Dew) Sex: Female Age: Mare Species: Unicorn Eye colour: Amber Coat colour: Salmon Mane/Tail/Markings colour & Style:the Left side of her mane is dull red and the right side is black. The black and red on her tail make sort of a swirl pattern. The tip of her left ear is nicked off. Physique: Tone, but not overtly muscular Cutie Mark: Two intersecting gears with an open book in the overlap space. Origin/Residence: Born in Stalliongrad, currently residing in Manehattan Occupation: Inventor Motivation: She wants to pioneer a new age of technology (the combination of magic, clockwork and steam), and become a well respected member mechanical engineering field. Likes: Studying/practicing magic and machinery, potatoes, chaos (as in paper work and schematics being everywhere, and sound dissonance like in a workshop), showing off inventions, lecturing, relaxing. Dislikes: Peace and quiet, close mindedness, empty spaces, being called pink Character Summary: Gear Shift lived with her parents Red Comet (a pegasus) and Honeydew (a unicorn) in Stalliongrad. Her parents ran a catering business out of stalliongrad for a living, Honeydew specializing in foods that included or was centered around honeydew and Red Comet (self taught stunt flier) providing aerial shows for entertainment. Both her parents tried to get their little filly interested in the business but she'd always run off to her room to tinker. Gear Shift was always taking things apart and analyzing them, she was fascinated with technology for as long as she could remember. As she continued to feed her interest the years cultivated her mind allowing her to think with a level of clarity and critical thinking that most ponies lacked. Pretty soon her skill and knowledge of mechanics and basic engineering reached the point where mundane, day to day problem were an easy fix to her, whether it was a something simple like a burst pipe or something complicated like shorted out magitech. Gear Shift was the filly to call. Once she was secure in her ability to repair, modify, and build one thing at a time she decided to attempt to increase her productivity by multitasking. She found she had a natural talent for telekinesis, scanning, diagnostic, and temperature altering spells. At this realization she understood just how much magic could compliment her skills, she turned her eyes to the practice of magic and how to apply magic to technology. Within no time Gear Shift had mastered her magic to the point where she could telekinetically assemble a watch, scan the piece for flaws,and cut and weld metal for continued construction of the watch all simultaneously. On day there was a emergency at the Stalliongrad water treatment plant, the system was overloaded because a freeze backed up the piping. No one had the skill or know how to fix the problem fast enough and if left alone the pipes would burst and leave the Gear Shift's section of the city without running water. Gear Shift was on the scene within the hour, she skillfully cut and welded pipes where necessary while replacing, reshaping, reconstructing, and modifying the entire system. At the end of the day the system had been remade to use a valve system to shift pressure to a secondary pipe system in case this happens again. After the entire ordeal the young the filly got her cutie mark. Because she always tinkered with machines at all hours of the day for practice her father took to calling her Gear Shift as a joke, a name she took to heart. Once she was old enough to leave home she went to Canterlot for schooling in mechanical and magical engineering. She excelled in most fields, but never graduated because of her off the wall, radical thinking and "impractical" theories. The professors were sad to see an Alpha Class unicorn simply drop out because of a few spats. "Wasted potential they said." But it wasn't just a spat or an argument. They insulted her creed, her way of doing things. Upon returning home, she told her family of her failure. Her parents offered her a place at home and in her the family business. She politely refused and opted to move to Manehattan where she would try and set up base for a repair business (The business sole purpose is to fund her while she travels across Equestria gathering inspiration for her inventions). One day she plans on returning to her professors in Canterlot with a million inventions that will change the world, all made from her impractical ideas. Personality: Gear Shift, was never a pony to have many friends but she was far from anti social the opposite actually. The problem was that most ponies didnt understand half of what came out of her mouth and were somewhat intimidated by her intellect. Because of this she's become somewhat with drawn finding comfort and companionship in machines. Quirky, a bit arrogant, somewhat over eccentric Gear Shift is one of the best at what she does and she neither hides it nor tries to downplay it. She lives by the creed: Anything is possible with proper understanding. Special Talent: Methodology
  21. Both Art of the Dress and Becoming Popular are high on my list because Rarity is my favorite pony. Find a pet, smile smile smile, and winter wrap up are favs of mine as well. This Day Aria is going to make me sick, its so catchy that i cant get it out of my head....anytime there is a significant stretch of silence my mind goes straight back too. "....This day is going to be perfect...."
  22. Seems like everyone i know whose into the show found it because 1) all TV sucks at the moment, or 2) because It's everywhere
