DantonDamnark

Chapter 3 released! I don't plan on making this like Harry Potter where the texts get longer and longer.

I was thinks: "Would it be a good idea to have NPCs in Pony RPs?" It got me to thinking of how they would work and what their basics would be and I think I've got some. RP NPC Attributes Used as minor/comic roles Example: Character gives RPers a quest/is the one who "starts" the RP [*]For use by (almost) anypony By "almost", I mean the creator can allow for anypony to use them or require them to ask permission. [*]Character is (mostly) open ended, allowing for adaption for others. I've also got a slightly modified version of the RP Application to possibly be used as an NPC Application Template. [b]Name:[/b] [b]Sex:[/b] [b]Age:[/b] [b]Species:[/b] [b]Pelt Color:[/b] [b]Mane/Tail/Markings Color & Style:[/b] [b]Eye Color:[/b] [b]Cutie Mark:[/b] [b]Physique:[/b] [b]NPC Type:[/b] - Types: FiM Character, OC [b]Occupation:[/b] (optional) [b]Description of Character:[/b] - A very short version of Character Summary. Very simple, no story. [b]Permission Type:[/b] - Types: FfA(Free for All), PM(PM the creator) This is very basic right now, I'm hoping to get more input before adding anything else.

Well after reading Arcana's Character summary, I reminded me of an aspect I forgot to add about Danton. His love for shadows and the Darkness, but not in an evil way. What I was asking was something like: "Does/Can she draw power from the dark?" or "Does she feel better in the dark than in the light?"

Minor edit on his Like for Shadows/Darkness. There will likely be no more addition edits.

I think she is a very interesting Pony, I just a few questions. Where is she now/Where does she live? Has she made any progress on her goal? How does she feel about "shadows"?(You can ask what I mean if you don't understand) And "Danton" would like to say that "She sounds interesting."

Minor Noble Family? Yet he is Royalty?

I agree that Invisability is a little too powerful. I was debating on whether add it or not and now I also see there is no true practical purpose for Danton to need it. I have removed it, and also clearified that Danton uses his minor Flame Control for Alchemy.

I'd like to add that the Topic name should Match the Character's name, and not the User/Submitter. Just as well, I think you should try to be more concise when it comes to everything that isn't the Character Summary, which I think you need to make a little more detailed.

I might be able to voice act, it depends on the Part/what I need to sound like. Also I could be part of the writing/storyboard team. One more thing, what kind of "animation" exactly? Flash? Traditional? Because for Flash I might be able to create object the animators can uses. I also could ask the Vector Community to provide PSD/SVGs of actual Characters and Props from the show.

I'm starting to think no pony read this

You can use my Character Jiktin (Still in WIP but basically Final). But it would probably make more sense for them to be aquatences/Friends rather than a relative. (You DO NOT want to be part of Jiktin's Family)

Oh, sorry. I changed the other back. I'm sorry.

Awesome! I've had some thoughts about the Everfree Forest for awhile now.

I don't have a background "image", it's more of a video... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=umyjGBEc0E0 Imagine it being looped.

Released from WIP and is now Final.

Thank you! I decided to release them by chapter because I know, personally, that people hate to read long Internet text. But what I am really thankful for is people, like you, pointing out grammatical, spelling, punctuation and other errors. This is the price you pay for using Notepad over Microsoft Word. I prefer the basic/infancy display of Notepad as well as it's quick startup, saving, identifying and comparability. As apposed to Word's start-up time(on my Laptop) as well as the evil squiggles that change the focus of my attention to spelling and such rather than writing(Typing) my story. In more regards to "release by chapter", I've found that when I type "books" I may change my mind about one thing- "Ooo! That would be cool to add!" - and then end up having to change everything only to have to Re-Rewrite it.

Okay, I've organized his Magical Abilities and added more information on why he Meditates. I think I may be getting close to taking him out of WIP.

What you are saying can be expressed in the following statement I came up with moments ago: You find a dog on the street, He has a nametag telling where he lives. You decided to put a hat on the dog. Now, is the dog yours?

Ironically, this story does fit the Theme of the Month as Chapter 1 mentions a coffee shop and Chapter 2 (& Chapter 3 will) takes place at said Coffee Shop. The Irony is I wrote both Chapter 1 & 2 before I found this site. So I've been working on a Short Stories series about my OC Characters. The name of the series, "Awkward Moments", was a name my brother came up with for a Comic series for Neopets many years ago. I am releasing the series in Chapters of Books. Links provided direct to deviantArt. The series follows the lives and adventures of 3 Best Friend Ponies. Mane Characters Danton - the mysterious, stoic Unicorn Alchemist Jiktin E. McRange - the clumsy, sharpshooting Pegasus Archer Yulin Stalwart - the fiery-spirited, parkour-loving Earth Pony Peace Keeper ~Book 1 - It Begins!~ Chapter 1 - Meeting Like This... - Less than 600 words Chapter 2 - In the Meantime... - 790 words Chapter 3 - The Third Stooge - Just over 800 words Epilogue - Under 400 words. ~Book 2 - With a Twist of Olives~ Chapter 1 - Chooing the Fat Chapter 2 - The City Chapter 3 - The Street Urchins Epilogue ~Book 3 - How the Clown met the Hermit~ - On Canterlot Chapter 1 - At the Cafe Chapter 2 - A Debt Owed Chapter 3 - Misery Epilogue ~Book 4 - Jiktin & Jadvald~ Chapter 1 - Goin' Outta Town Chapter 2 - A Promise Not Kept Chapter 3 - Jikvald Epilogue ~Book 5 - Negative 63~ Chapter 1 - Meanwhile in Trottingham Chapter 2 - The Candy Twins Chapter 3 - Epilogue ~Book 6 - Tick-Tock-Mock~ I am not going to keep resizing the images just to put them in this thread anymore. Instead I will recolor the Title's Text. I may also remove the Old Images. Chapter 1 - An Old Fiend Chapter 2 - The Auction Chapter 3 - Clockwork's Home Epilogue Future Content Books that I plan to make but have not yet. ~Hector the Fallen~ Description: It is Nightmare Night and Danton is telling his annual tale to the ponies of Ponyville. This year's story: Hector the Fallen. This is more of a Lore-ish book, but it does get interrupted by Jiktin every now and then. Notes on the Series: Each Book will have their own "Cover Artwork" Stories take place at around the same time as the show. Series Rating: PG - Mild Language(though none yet) Feedback is appreciated. On both this thread and deviantArt.

What is the size of the file?

I don't hate them, I just mentioned I don't like them because usually why I say "I love Power Metal" the next thing I hear is "Dragonforce sucks!"

Yeah, I know what you mean. It seems it goes directly to 100% no matter what. Just wait while the real loading happens.
