  1. Roleplay Type: World of Equestria (Mane RP) Name: Celia "Wrong Note" Andantino Gender: Female Age: Mare (20) Species: Earth Pony Eye Color: Light yellow Coat Color: Dark Purple Mane/Tail Color and Style: Her mane is dual coloured, light green and a darkened blue. She wears it loosely, but she tucks one side behind her left ear. Physique: Average, though a bit thinner than many of her peers Cutie Mark: Three black music notes Origin/Residence: Manehatten/Hoofington Occupation: Works part-time at a fish bait shop "Hook, Line, and Sinker" Motivation: She sings every night in an attempt to regain her previous vocal talents. Likes: The wind in the trees, silence, music, the colour purple Dislikes: Unicorns (or is at least distrustful of them), anything that reminds her of home, her terrible singing voice Character Summary: The Andantino family is a family of musicians who are renowned in Manehatten. Celia was one of the most promising members of the family with her singing talent. She was very selfish and uncaring, all the things that rich fillies tended to be. It seemed that she was going to be the next rising star of the Andantino family and everyone around her knew it. Celia earned her cutie mark young, as one of the first in her class. At the first concert she appeared in, despite taking a small role as a backup singer, Celia's talent for singing was revealed. Her mother and father -Vivace and Larg- had expected nothing less from an Earth Pony of their family. However, on the night of the big concert that was certain to cement her place in the world of music, a unicorn who had been scorned by the Andantino family cursed Celia to have a terrible singing voice. The curse made it so that she would be forced to sing rather than talk from that day forth. The concert was a disaster, with Celia being laughed off the stage. As a result, Celia decided to leave Manehatten to avoid the shame of her curse. She abandoned the Andantino name and became known by the name Wrong Note. It humbled her greatly, resulting in her casting away her old ways and starting to appreciate others. She travelled for several years before settling into Hoofington. She ended up working at the bait shop merely as a way to make ends meet, but she has developed more of an interest in the ways of Hoofington and appreciates its importance to the residents of the town.. Her personality has done a huge turn around since leaving Manehatten. The curse has remained, but she has come to appreciate strength of character and attributes such as kindness and generousity rather than beauty or wealth. She still tries to discover a way to break her curse, though her grudge against the unicorn who cursed her has faded away. Wrong Note sees that without that event, she would have never been able to mature like she has, but she still wants to regain a normal method of communication with other ponies. For this purpose, she goes out to the docks of Hoofington to sing each night, hoping that it may break her curse. Wrong Note's socialite tendencies have mostly disappeared from her life, though they appear in burst, causing her to be cold and callous at times. She is also very self-conscious due to her past experiences and often stays away from friendships until she knows the pony in question very well. Overall, her experiences ended up transforming her into a determined, capable, and ultimately very different mare from the stuck up, privileged Celia Andantino.
  2. Dear Princess Celestia, Today I learned that friends can be some of the most awesome and trustworthy people ever. Also, they will occassionally make TvTropes pages about you for your birthday. Your faithful student, Neoniie
  3. Okie-dokie-lokie! So, this is just a quick and dirty (literally) series of drabbles that I wrote last night. They're not my best, but I wanted some practice with Flux's character. Despite being in her Madness Place for most of these, I don't think I have her quite "mad scientists-y" enough yet. Basically, I don't think I have her final, stable characterization yet. However, that's what practice is for, no? Also, for the curious, Chiptune is an OC from a different board who is friends with Flux. I may actually bring her over here after some revision... Anyway, without further ado, onto the drabbles! 4 Signs that Somepony Needs a Bath 1. When Even Your Muddy Ferret Doesn't Want To Be Around You Quantum Flux paced back and forth across the rugged and stained floor of the room. Such architecture was to be expected, due to both the age and purposes of the basement that the scientist pony called home. Levitating a battered and dog-earred leather bound notebook toward her, Flux began to look over the hypotheses and previous experiments. A quiet tapping sound emanated from the tiny door that Flux had requested for her ferret, Tesla. Dropping the notebook, Flux dashed over to the door and directed some magic toward the handle, opening it for her brown furred companion. Tesla yawned as he entered, seeming tired but generally normal. However, Flux noted that he seemed to be a much darker brown than usual and that a strange dripping sound accompanied his steps. Lowering her head to eye level with the small creature, Flux asked, "Is that mud?". The tiny creature nodded, shaking his fur to force out the wetter pieces of mud. Most of the wet dirt clung to his coat, already dried enough that a simple shake of the body would not dislodge them. Raising her head again, Flux turned to her fallen notebook and began to read it aloud. "Alright Tesla, you're late and there fore we have lots to catch up on. I need you to fetch me some..." Turning around, Flux stopped abruptly, staring at Tesla. The ferret had backed away, covering his nose and waving a tiny paw in front of him to bat away some invisible odour. Staring at him in confusion, Flux did a quick inventory of the room. I did just have a minor explosion, but it was most odourless, so it can't be that. Torvus isn't cooking, thank Celestia. I haven't left the steam tubes open again. What could it possibly be? The unicorn's puzzled expression made her question clear to the ferret, who pointed to the dusty calender in the corner of the room. Flux never used it, but Torvus flipped it to the correct month when he bothered to enter the basement. She remembered that her experiments had begun on a Thursday and consulting the calender, she saw that a whole week had gone by. “Oh,” mumbled the unicorn. “I suppose you won't help me until I've taken a bath then?” Tesla nodded exuberantly. “Very well, but you'd better have the supplies out when I'm back.” 2. When Your Friend Buys You Some Soap and Insists That You Have a Pool Party “Look, Flux,” began the lime green Pegasus, flapping her wings gently as she spoke. “I know that you're on the edge of an important breakthrough or something, but I haven't seen you for a week and a half! I'm just worried about you, Flux.” The white unicorn scoffed, shifting the goggles off her face and turning away from her bubbling concoction. “I'm perfectly fine! Nothing to worry about,” Flux smiled at her friend, but based on the Pegasus' expression, it was not very convincing. “Just this one time, please? I even got you a present!” The Pegasus fully grounded herself and produced a wrapped up bar from her flankpack. Flux sighed, but levitated the object toward her, unwrapping it with some magic. Under the wrapping paper, a bar of pink soap could be seen. Flux raised her eyebrow, "Soap? Odd. When someone like you, Chiptune, announces that they have a gift, its generally a bit more extravagant." Flux immediately began to examine the bar, complete with an internal inspection. "However, I'm certain I can make use of its fizzing properties in my experiments." "Actually, I was thinking that we should have a pool party! With soap!" Chiptune declared, faux excitement on her face. Even Flux, who was not very familiar with many social practices, found this to be a rather odd suggestion. "With soap? Forgive me, but I wasn't aware that soap was usually involved in such exercises." "To be honest, it isn't, but Torvus has started complaining about the smell down here and we've got to get rid of it. Now come on, we've got a soap pool party to go to!" 3. When You Finally Notice That the Smell Isn't Torvus' Bad Cooking Flux was on a mission. Taking time away from her precious experiments wasn't something Flux did lightly, but the matter at hand was immensely pressing. Tesla watched Flux patch back and forth, yawning slightly as the rhythm began to lull him into sleep. "Tesla! This is no time for sleep! This stench has gotten so bad that I can't work through it any longer. We must confront Torvus. I know he means well, but if his cooking is interfering with my work, something must be done!" The ferret mewed in annoyance and lay his head down on his paws. "Fine, I shall go and do it myself," Flux declared, trotting up the stairs. With a dramatic bang, Flux opened the door and began to speak. "Torvus! I apologize, but I think I must be blunt with you. Your cooking is terrible. I didn't mind it as much before, but now the stench is interrupting my work. I'm sure something can be worked out, but I need at least a temporary solution in order to return to my work!" Torvus chuckled, "I'll say! I was wondering when you'd notice. That smell ain't me, Quantum, it's you." Flux looked puzzled for a moment before seeing the date once more. With a small "oh" of realization, she bowed out of the room as respectfully as she could, closing the door softly behind her. "Also, my cooking is divine!" The old Earth Pony called after her, causing Tesla to s****** slightly. 4. When You Just Blew Up Something...Again It seems that soap is not the best thing to use in one's experiments. It's combination with one of Flux's various chemicals had resulting in the ball of smoke that now engulfed the basement level of the Clock Tower. Coughing loudly, Flux cleared away some of the smoke with her magic, depositing it into a disused corner. Tesla, who could be identified by his smaller coughs, scurried over to the magically cleared corner of the room. "Note to self, never use soap with chemicals that contain more volatile components." Bring forth a notebook labelled Unwise Combinations Volume II, Flux scribbled down this information and began to take inventory of the room. It seemed intact, with minimal damage to any equipment or surfaces. However, Flux and Tesla were completely covered in soot and smoke. Tesla looked pointedly at her, his meaning clear. "This is the third time this month. It seems to be turning into some strange pattern." With a slight shake of his head in incredulity, Tesla climbed up the stairs quickly. Flux followed, bringing the remnants of the soap bar with her and preparing to sort of explanation to a no doubt impatient Torvus.
  4. As many of my pony knowledgeable friends have said, Twilight is almost a carbon copy of my in the body of a purple unicorn. The diligence, commitment to learning, having only a few friends, and the more logical approach to thinking are definately core qualities to who I am (In my opinion). I even can go a bit Psycho!Sparkle when I think something really important is going to be late. If that was a bit TL;DR, basically: Twilight Sparkle.
  5. Hi! I do (at least attempt ) to write fanfics once in a while, with rather mixed results. it generally depends on how late at night I'm writing it. As for my OC, I definately hope to get her charging through the Accepted Apps Stables soon and into the RPing action, so I'm totally looking forward to meeting everyone's OCs.
  6. First off, happy first entry! Woo! Alright, now onto the main topic. I am just swamped with stuff this weekend. Homework, tests, original fiction, Pony fic, trying to get my scanner to work; you name it, I've probably got to do it. However, it seems that I tend to work best under pressure and I don't get very motivated without the weight of a deadline over my head. So, I suppose I'll just attempt to enjoy it and moderate my work time and pony time. As a side note, if anyone has ideas or OCs that they would like to suggest to me for my story, feel free to put them in a comment. The storyline is not quite set up, but I think it will probably be an epic adventure-questie thing, so ideas are definately both needed and appreciated. That's about it, so 'till next time! Keep calm and pony on, ~ Neoniie
  7. Good to know and thanks for the support!
  8. Not to be a bother or rush anypony, but are there any more suggestions for tweaks or should I just wait for the approval stamps?
  9. I have 173 songs on my iPod. 103 of them are about ponies.

  10. Haha, so now we know why Rainbow's "official" pet was a turtle. First song of the season! Yay! Overall, I enjoyed it. I've missed Rainbow Dash in these past few episodes.
  11. Okie-dokie-lokie! The Original Post is now updated with Cutie Mark Story details.
  12. Alright. *crackes knuckles* Let's write this cutie mark story!
  13. Ah! I hadn't thought of that! It's an excellent idea and I shall definately add it in. Why thank you, I've been looking for an excuse to use all my weird scientist-name knowledge. Even though Tesla doesn't exist in MLP, I thought it would be fun. It was either that or Einstein.
  14. I, for one, am quite interesting in this. I believe I saw a similar idea on another roleplay board (though the name has slipped my mind at the moment) and it turned out fantastically. I really enjoy the whole Matrix-virtual reality idea. Either way, I know that I would definately end up participating if it takes off.
  15. Roleplay Type: World of Equestria RP (Mane RP) Name: Quantum Flux, though she generally goes by Flux Sex: Female Age: Older Filly (17) Species: Unicorn Eye Color: Bright green, though she occasionally wears goggles during her experiments Coat Color: White Mane/Tail/Markings Color & Style: She generally lets her mane and tail fly free, except when she is experimenting to avoid the obvious dangers of volatile chemicals . The edges are a bit raggedy from her insistence to cut it herself and both her mane and tail are red. Physique: Average Cutie Mark: Three Erlenmeyer Flasks inside a diagram of an atom. It's story proper goes a little like this: Quantum Flux had to think of it quickly. She had one night left before the project was due and she still had no idea what to write. Slamming down her pen angrily, she paced back and forth. She was supposed to be writing about “a topic that interests” her. The only problem was that she had no idea what she was interested in! Being one of the few blank flanks remaining, Flux was still attempting to find her talents. Her relatively weak magic gave her some interest in magic's inner workings, but Flux knew she could never finish it in one night. When all seemed lost, a spark of inspiration came to Flux. That's it! Now if I can just find some of those glass things that my dad had lying around... With renewed vigour, Flux dashed around her house, gathering all of her necessary materials. As she poured some liquids into a strangely shaped glass, Flux went over the steps in her head. Magic without magic! Genius! Changing the colours of liquids using this chemical should be unique enough. Now, pour the lemon juice into the chemical and stir slightly... Flux worked through the night, not stopping until her essay had been completed. Grabbing some extra supplies for her live performance, Flux dashed out the door and arrived just in time for the beginning of classes. Unfortunately, Flux had grabbed a rather volatile chemical rather than the one she had meant to use. The result was a minor explosion that managed to turn the blackboard even blacker and the singeing of Flux's mane. However, when the dust and soot cleared, Flux saw that her very own cutie mark had appeared. This sign of her talent, combined with the energy that her experiment had filled her with, set Flux's hooves on her current path. Origin/Residence: Originally hails from Fillydelphia, moved to Canterlot. Occupation: She works as Torvus' aide. Torvus is an elderly Earth Pony who works with gears and lives in the abandoned clock tower near the outskirts of Canterlot. In return for her assistance, he allows her to stay in the basement of the clock tower and lets her do as many experiments as she wants. Motivation: She wants to learn as much as she can about the universe. At the moment, she is trying to find some correlation between Unicorn magic and pony biology, basically trying to see why and how magic develops and is used. Likes: Science, cookies, dusk, being with her friends Dislikes: Loud noise, interruptions, mornings Character Summary: Born in Fillydelphia, Flux moved to Canterlot early in her foalhood, long before any concrete memory set in. Therefore, her mannerism have been completely shaped by Canterlot society. Her mother is an earth pony astronomer named Comet Flare. Her father is a doctor in Canterlot named Dr. Scalpel "Flux". Flux is definitely not quiet or shy, but is in fact very vocal of her opinions and will defend them to the bitter end. She is a very serious worker and can go completely silent or disappear for days when she's trying to figure something out. Flux is almost a complete opposite of her bubbly, very expressive friend from Cloudsdale who she finds annoying at times, but their friendship remains quite an important part of her life. She is much more reserved and tends to be subtle in expressing her feelings. She isn't a big fan of her boss, Torvus, but he allows her to be as crazy as she wants with experiments as long as she helps him out. For that, she is grateful and leaves complaining to a minimum. The only thing that really gets Flux excited is a new breakthrough in her experiments or theories. However, being around her friends has rubbed off on her and she can get excited about “normal” things such as a party or competition at times. Flux has the strengths of being a good debater and rather good organization, other than during her experiments. She's also good working things out quickly and logically. However, her magic is not very powerful, but it is functional (ie. Gamma Class Unicorn as per the U.M.A.T. ). She can be quite uncaring and brutally honest when she's in a bad mood. She finds it hard to admit that she was wrong and is stubborn on her opinions. Additional Information: Flux has a pet ferret named Tesla who lives with her in the clock tower’s basement floor. Tesla has a brown body with black bands around his belly and across his eyes. He tends to go out during the day by himself, unless Flux requests his assistance with an experiment. Also, a note about the advanced-ness of her science. I know that Ponyville is only steam based technology and whatnot, so I thought I would be best to clear this up. Flux partakes in the generally timeless ideals of "mad science" type technology. It's that archetypal "flask and bubbly concoctions" type of science. This amazing picture comes from the equally amazing crp_dude!
  16. Though I'm actually new myself, I stilll thought I should pop in and say hello. Based on what I've seen, Canterlot is really awesome and everypony is friendly and helpful. So, don't hesitate to be yourself!
  17. Thanks for the warm welcome everypony! To answer your question, Davoth, I do intend to spend most of my time here participating in Role Play. I've been going over the rules and application format and have found it seems to be similar to most other RP forums I've been on. I suppose it makes sense, as the same standards and etiquette are generally expected everywhere.
  18. About myself.: I'm rather boring honestly. My hobbies include dance, reading, and writing. I'm from the cool land of Canada (bad pun, I know). I'm rather nerdy and absolutely love referencing geeky internet things. I'm very passionate about learning and getting what I need to do done. I enjoy video games and music, among other media, and am always willing to try my hand at something new. How did you hear about Canterlot.com?: I googled "Canterlot" looking for the wiki entry on it and found this as the first link. Intrigued, I took a look. How did you became a fan of FiM?: I stumbled across a link to Equestria Daily and searched up the first episode on Youtube. After the first arc (S1E1 and S1E2), I was hooked My one favourite main cast pony?: Twilight Sparkle Since all of my post stuff is above, I haven't got much else to say. So, in conclusion, nice to meet you all. Hopefully, I'll be seeing you around the forums.
