CaptainMcDerp Posted July 10, 2014 Report Share Posted July 10, 2014 Sign up is closed.Winter's latest job requires the transportation of valuable gems and minerals from Bareback Gulch to Manehatten. However, not long after she arrived at Bareback Gulch, the railway was deemed shut down for emergency repair and showed no sign of resolving any time soon. Stranded and quickly running out of bits, she decided on hoofing it back to Manehatten instead.The trip will be a long one, and due to the risk, she'll need others to accompany her and help fend off anything looking to steal the precious cargo.Here's a list of roles your character can fill. Bodyguard is limited by five. Every other role has no limits at the moment but that's subject to change.Bodyguard (Full, no longer available) Doesn't have to be an official bodyguard but requires enough combat skill to fight off an attack and protect against a possible ambush.Non malicious random encounters It could be someone who noticed them and decided to tag along and such. Winter's magical ability is to feel the emotions of others so she has pretty good judge of character in regards to trustworthiness. However, her ability is not 100% accurate so a cunning enough character with ill intent could still pass into the group. ;DBandits and Thieves anyone looking to steal the cargo is welcome! ;DDiamond Dogs because GEMSSS!The list and the route isn't set in stone. This will be a very flexible RP so let me know if you have any ideas!Sign up list:Dunder - Dunder (Bodyguard)StaticPinks - Rusty Tones (Bodyguard)GhostGirl - Siiri Lionheart (Bodyguard)DerpRavener - Nai (Random encounter/Bodyguard)RainbowDaringDash - Blackwing (Bodyguard)Rarity - Lady Luck (Thief) Serendipity (Random Encounter)SteelEagle- Pathfinder (Random Encounter)Lumikou - Whimsy (Random Encounter)RazorWind - Razor Wind (Random Encounter)PyroBlaze - Xanmas (Theif)Zeig - Inkbrand (Thief)Quicklime - Kalime (DIAMOND DOGE)Thread is here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunder Posted July 10, 2014 Report Share Posted July 10, 2014 I sign Dunder up as a bodyguard! A cute Peryton needs some beefy stallions to protect her and her cargo? Dunder would be all over that! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zeig Posted July 10, 2014 Report Share Posted July 10, 2014 Oh man, I'm so into this idea. Not sure where to put Inkbrand though. Acting as a thief/brigand, maybe on somepony's order, would be interesting, since he hasn't really had a chance to show his morally ambiguous side in RPs yet. But what would that leave for interaction, if he's trailing along after the group? Unless he could pass himself off as a helper along the road, so that he can interact with other characters...but since Winter is good at reading emotions, she'd probably be able to detect his less than stellar intentions. Bodyguard or an encounter along the road might be good too, but I'm really into the idea of RPing Inkbrand's "bad" side, as it were. I'll have to think about this. *sits and brainstorms* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RarityDash Posted July 10, 2014 Report Share Posted July 10, 2014 Since you're heading through the western regions, might be a good place for outlaw mare, Lady Luck, to pop up and try and get her hooves on the cargo.You could also run into my casino mare Serendipity if you spend any time in Las Pegasus. She wouldn't really be after your stuff though, just something to interest her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll have to think about this. *sits and brainstorms*If he's got a thieving comrade with him, that would provide the interaction. But if he's cool headed enough, he would pass into the group. She usually detects ill intent by looking for unusual nervousness, anxiety, heightened awareness, or any other emotion a scheming thief would normally have. Her magical ability is to feel the emotions of others but it's not 100% accurate. If the emotion in question isn't strong enough, she won't even notice. Plus, the idea of Inkbrand unknowingly stealing from August's long lost sister is too good to pass up. ;D As for why he doesn't know it's her, August doesn't talk about it much but he did mention her name to him a couple times.DID SOMEONE SAY DIAMOND DOGE?RELEASE THE HOUNDS!Are you signing up with Kalime?Since you're heading through the western regions, might be a good place for outlaw mare, Lady Luck, to pop up and try and get her hooves on the cargo.You could also run into my casino mare Serendipity if you spend any time in Las Pegasus.

Zeig Posted July 10, 2014 Report Share Posted July 10, 2014 Yeah, I was thinking about that too. Would make for some interesting conversation. "Oh man Red, should've seen my haul the other day. That albino Peryton had no idea what happened to her load." "Oh hey that's cool - wait, what?"Rarity, would Lady Luck be interesting in teaming up for something like this? I think it's a good idea for the thieves to have at least one other character to interact with. So like, Inkbrand would work from within the group while the other character is working more from the shadows? Then Inkbrand could act as the "inside man", maybe sabotaging the group to force them to stop at certain places where ambushes are set up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PyroBlaze Posted July 10, 2014 Report Share Posted July 10, 2014 I'll put Xan up as a thief. It's his occupation after all. I'm also considering throwing in another character as a random encounter, just not sure which of my remaining three it should be. Xan and two of my other characters are in my log. Here's the bio for the final character, if you want to read it: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CaptainMcDerp Posted July 10, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 10, 2014 Whoops, double post. My bad I know I said there was no number limit but I think five bodyguards is plenty. (If DerpRavener and RainbowDaringDash decide on the bodyguard roles for their characters) Any more and she'd have an army at her disposal. Not to mention, she has to pay all of them at the end of this too. XD Every other role remains open though and feel free to suggest new roles too!

RainbowDaringDash Posted July 10, 2014 Report Share Posted July 10, 2014 Ummm i dont know, a griffon or a changeling, I really dont want to upset any one, so i am willing to say Derp can have it if he wants it and il just go as a random encounter.
