CarnelianClout

Species: Crystal Pony Age: 24 Gender: Female Residence: Ponyville Hometown: Crystal Empire Cutie Mark: None Physical Description: Lazulia is a crystal mare with a dark blue mane and lighter blue coat that leads to lighter grey at her hooves. She has no cutie mark. Image: Backstory: Born before the reign of King Sombra, she traversed a landscape of adversity, enduring the unforgiving rule of her mother's family and the formidable Royal House of Onyx. From her earliest days, Lazulia's destiny seemed predetermined, as her mother, Carnelian Clout, fervently dedicated herself to shaping her daughter into a formidable leader. With unwavering determination, the viscountess placed great emphasis on Lazulia's education, ensuring that she received a comprehensive and rigorous upbringing. It was through this meticulous upbringing that Lazulia was imbued with knowledge and discipline, honing her mind and fortifying her character. Yet, despite the benefits of a structured education, Lazulia's path was not without its challenges. The weight of her mother's expectations often left her feeling isolated and detached from her peers. While her contemporaries reveled in carefree camaraderie, Lazulia found solace in her studies and introspection, seeking refuge in the vast expanse of her own thoughts. As Lazulia matured, the oppressive shadow cast by her mother's ambitions became increasingly suffocating. At the age of twenty-three, her spirit yearning for freedom and self-discovery, she made the courageous decision to break free from the chains of her predetermined fate. Escaping the clutches of her mother's control, Lazulia embarked on a journey of self-discovery, embracing the unknown with open arms, and leaving behind the familiar confines of the Crystal Empire. Her newfound freedom came at a price. Carnelian Clout, driven by a desperate desire to regain her daughter and reclaim her rightful place within the Crystal Empire, deployed all available resources to track down Lazulia. The viscountess's relentless pursuit only intensified Lazulia's resolve to forge her own path, away from the oppressive grip of her past. Lazulia remains steadfast in her quest for autonomy, determined to chart her own destiny and find her place in a world that exists beyond the borders of the Crystal Empire. Personality: Lazulia's personality is characterized by a delicate blend of shyness, anxiety, and a lack of self-assurance. Her inner world is often plagued by doubts and insecurities, causing her to question her own abilities and worth. This low confidence seeps into every aspect of her life, leaving her unsure of her own potential and struggling to find her place in the world. When faced with challenging situations, Lazulia's natural inclination is to retreat rather than confront them head-on. The overwhelming pressure of confrontation often leaves her feeling overwhelmed and ill-equipped to handle the complexities of social interactions. As a result, she tends to shy away from conflict, opting for a quieter, more passive approach. This tendency to run away from difficult situations is not a sign of weakness, but rather a coping mechanism born out of her anxiety and uncertainty. Lazulia's social awkwardness further compounds her struggles. Interacting with others can be an intimidating and bewildering experience for her. She often finds herself at a loss for words, unsure of how to navigate social cues and norms. This leads to a sense of isolation and detachment, as she struggles to forge meaningful connections with those around her. Her lack of social confidence reinforces her belief that she doesn't quite fit in or belong. One of Lazulia's greatest challenges lies in uncovering her special talent or purpose in life. Her uncertainty and self-doubt make it difficult for her to recognize her own strengths and interests. This lack of direction leaves her feeling adrift, searching for a sense of purpose and meaning. It is not uncommon for her to question her own abilities and potentials, often underestimating herself and overlooking the unique qualities that make her who she is. Despite these challenges, Lazulia possesses a quiet resilience and a hidden potential waiting to be discovered. With the right support and encouragement, she has the capacity to overcome her anxieties and find her own voice. It is through self-exploration and gentle guidance that Lazulia can gradually build her confidence, navigate her social interactions, and unearth her true passions and talents. Likes: Friends, Ponyville, peace, calm, reading. Dislikes: Her mother, conflict, violent situations, negative and dark contexts.

@KaityKat You still around to do requests?

Species: Crystal Pony Age: 55 (Though depends on RP) Gender: Female Residence: Crystal Empire Hometown: Crystal Empire Occupation: Viscountess (Though Depends on RP) Cutiemark: Sparkling Diamond Appearance: Carnelian is a regal-looking mare with a good looking build and striking blue eyes which are often described as intense and piercing. Her ruby mane is styled into an elaborate coiffure and adorned with a silver laurel crown. Her coat shimmers with a subtle iridescence and looks like polished marble. She carries herself with a confident and elegant posture, and when she moves, there's a fluidity to her motions that's almost hypnotic. Despite her beautiful appearance, there's an air of danger about her. Despite her elegant appearance, there is a piercing quality to her gaze that makes others feel judged in her presence. Backstory: Born into the noble House Onyx in the Crystal Empire, Carnelian was the eldest of two siblings. Her family had a dark secret - they were involved in a pact with an ancient shadow being called an umbrum named Malzorath. Malzorath granted them power and longevity in exchange for souls, and when Carnelian was born, her parents marked her soul with the Malzorath's power. Carnelian's childhood was a traumatic one. As the firstborn daughter of the House Onyx, she was marked from birth as a vessel for Malzorath's power. Her parents subjected her to grueling physical and psychological training that left her emotionally scarred and detached from others. She was taught to view herself as superior to others and was encouraged to be ruthless in her pursuit of power. Carnelian's sister Lapis was the only source of comfort and affection in her early years. However, Lapis tragically passed away during a plague outbreak in the Crystal Empire, leaving Carnelian alone and adrift. After years of conditioning, Carnelian rebelled against her parents and became the Malzorath's champion. She married a stallion named Flourite Jade and had a foal with him. She had planned to offer her daughter, Lazulia, to the Malzorath but her plan was foiled by her husband. In a reckless move, she murdered him and proceeded to indoctrinate Lazulia much like her own parents had done to her. Years later, during King Sombra's reign, Carnelian attempted to seduce him to gain power. However, she was humiliated by the king and retreated into the shadows, waiting for an opportunity to strike. She eventually got her chance when Sombra was defeated by the royal sisters, but her daughter fled the empire, leaving her in a vulnerable position. Despite this setback, Carnelian is still a formidable figure. Malzorath, the Shadow Umbrum: Malzorath is an ancient and malevolent entity that hails from a realm beyond the Crystal Empire. He is a towering figure of darkness and corruption, with hooves dripping with shadow energy and eyes that glow like molten lava. His power is immeasurable, and his influence over the House Onyx runs deep. He is a being of chaos and destruction, always seeking to sow discord, fear, and despair wherever he goes. His ultimate goal is to corrupt the Crystal Empire from within and spread his influence across all realms. However, unlike most Umbrum, Malzorath is capable of shape-shifting into several forms, which he uses to masquerade as a trusted advisor and ally to the Onyx family. His deal with them grants him a powerful anchor to the mortal realm, allowing him to manifest his power and influence with ease. Personality: Carnelian has deep insecurities stemming from a traumatic upbringing. She is highly narcissistic, which often leads to her behaving shamelessly. Despite her cunning and intelligence, she struggles with genuine empathy and compassion. Carnelian Clout harbors a strong hatred for Equestria and their leadership. Though usually she prefers to manipulate situations, rather than instigate direct confrontation. Despite her harsh upbringing and her years of acting as she has, somewhere deep down inside is someone who cares deeply for the life of her daughter and wants the best for her - and the Crystal Empire as a whole. Depending on who she is surrounded with, she could either turn further to darkness or towards a better path that accepts friendship.

@SteelEagle Understood, will begin posting the sheets there.

@SteelEagle I have quite a few character sheets already completed, which section would I post them in?

How do I get started on character sheet applications and how do I apply for RP?

The songs are good, but overall it is not very memorable. Some episodes are gold, though. Such as the one where Misty Moves in.

They are very cute ponies for sure, I love them!

Loved the movie for sure! It was really well done and it worked well for a a new cast of characters. Pipp and Zipp are my favorite, as well as Haven.

I have seen all of it so far. Some episodes are better than others, however the short format of the show doesn't particularly appeal to me.

I have a slight interest in it, haven't looked too far into it.

Hello everyone! I have been looking for MLP forums and alternative sites to join, I am looking to get to know some folks, maybe find some new people to RP with if my interest is there.
