Forget subtlety, I have bells!

It's never a bad time for a sandwich! Someone who has too much to do and not enough time to do it.

Unfortunately I'm a bit of a daydreamer at times. I like to think I have attention to detail, but... Well, nobody's perfect. Someone who has no idea how they got frosting on their ear that one time.

Oh spider tea, you're so charming!

After seeing the amount of players around that are interested in roleplaying as Equestrian military personnel, it's only fitting that we have a master topic within the cast & lore section itself to serve as a guide for those who want to know what other players are out there, what topics exist for your character to be involved in, and to look at reference material for other guards to draw inspiration from and/or learn how to improve your character! -This is an OOC thread where players can find any information they may need regarding the Royal Equestrian Guard (REG), it's members, subgroups, operations, and special units, as well as a place to discuss upcoming/potential roleplays or ideas. -Please do NOT promote ideas for new lore to the Army, or modifications to existing lore, as that is not what this section of the forum is for. The hope is that with time, we can build up a comprehensive list of all the material a new or inexperienced player could ask for in order to fill a guard's role more comfortably. -For guard characters to be added to this list, they must be apped and approved in accordance with Canterlot's character creation standards, IE, the application must be stamped! -In the case of cast characters, if a certain cast character with military affiliation has multiple players (due to the new system), all applications will be posted in the following format: Example: Rank Soandso (App 1) (App 2) (App 3) IF YOU HAVE A CHARACTER OR AN RP TOPIC INVOLVING GUARDPONIES, PM ME AND I'LL BE SURE TO ADD IT!

Past OOC Material:

Yes! A special entry in the book! This time it's not a recipe I have to recite from memory and tell about my past experience! This time, I have pictures! Also, this pie is made entirely from scratch. Another pure creation (the other being my Adult Disfigured Samurai Shrimp). This was a labor of love, as this pie is very sentimental. A very special thanks to Quicklime for this determined suggestion! Today we'll make a Cinnamon Butterscotch pie! Or Butts Pie in layman's terms. Just like mom used to make! I would also suggesting listening to the Ruins OST from Undertale while baking this. Okay, so I actually had to go digging for a recipe for this, because never in my life have I made butterscotch. Here I was making butterscotch AND putting it in a pie! So I was way out of my element. But it came out fantastic. Yes, I broke my rule and used measurements this time, but again, I was out of my element and didn't want to screw it up. Not that I can screw it up anyway, because I'm perfect. Oh, I also had my girlfriend to help me on this. Cuz she's awesome and perfect too. I made a couple of tweaks to the recipe I found that I think worked out okay. So, what you'll need: Pie crust: All-Purpose flour Salt Confectioner's sugar Cold butter Egg (1 yolk and a whole egg) Water Cinnamon Butterscotch filling Butter Brown sugar Water Whole milk Heavy cream brown sugar (yes I know it's listed twice shhhh) egg yolks (9 of them) corn starch Cinnamon So first for the pie crust, we need to add the first three ingredients together. Your dry ingredients! You should also cut up your cold butter (I cheated and left it out to soften) and mix it into your dry ingredients. I used my hands cuz I don't have a whisk and a fork was a pain in the butt. Mix em up til it looks like this Should kinda look like Parmesan cheese, which gives me a great prank idea if the opportunity ever presents itself. At this point you need to add the egg yolk and mix it in. Oh, if you can, have a local lesser dog inspect it for you to make sure you did it right. At this point you're gonna add your cinnamon (for the crust, don't jump the gun) and water. Carefully add water and mix everything together until it looks like playdoh. Also make sure it isn't actually playdoh. I tried to make a goatmom face. It didn't work. Once you do that, you're going to want to refrigerate it for awhile. Again, I cheated and put it in the freeze for a couple minutes. Then put it in the pie tin! If you have extra dough, do something fun with it. Like make mom cookies! Your lesser dog will confirm if it's good. You know you want to. ANYWAY, once that's done, pop that sucker in the oven. To start on the filling while that's going, you want to cook some brown sugar and water, your butter, and your milk and cream all in seperate pots on medium heat. You want the brown sugar to bubble showly, the butter to brown, and the liquid stuff to steam. Once either of those meet their requirement, shut off the heat or switch it to low. The rest of the stuff, your 9 yolks, brown sugar, cinnamon and corn starch you'll want to mix is a bowl separate from everything else. It should look like barf, which makes me wanna... Well, barf. After that's all taken care of, add the browned butter to the brown sugar on the stove and mix them. Then do the same with the liquid stuff but SLOWLY. Once that's done, stir it constantly. Once it's mixed, mix the barf in with that and mix them together. Also turn the heat back on. Stir constantly, or else stuff will stick. It'll thicken quickly, and once it does, it should look like light brown-colored barf. At this point, take your crust out of the oven and put the barf in it. Then put it in the oven. I did it at about 400 degrees but the recipe calls for lower. Then after about 20 minutes, turn the heat off and let it sit for another 20 minutes in the oven. After that, you're done! True to life, it has to sit for a couple hours to be cutable. It should make a cheesecakey kind of texture when all's said and done. I put the mom cookie on top because that's fun. Analysis: I would never turn my nose up at this if it were on my plate. It's surprisingly delicious and it fills me with determination. Also it's perfect with a little whipped cream or ice cream. I'm not crying you're crying shut up EDIT: The recipe I followed can be found here: http://lvl1-chef.tumblr.com/post/130137142073/undertale-butterscotch-cinnamon-pie

It might be! I'll make sure to inform everyone once I complete this creation.

Granted, but you're deported to the moon for your clear support of an otherworldly being (Lyra Heartstrings) usurping the government. You don't get to enjoy the election results. I wish the new Star Wars game wasn't terrible in every conceivable way.

Granted, but you need a fusion battery to operate it, and those haven't been invented yet. Batteries not included. I wish my controller wasn't broken.

Are you ready Canterlot? Are you ready to be enlightened? This is the shepherd that will lead your flock to true delicious. It will protect you and watch over you as you graze on cheese, crust, and hotdogs. It will fight off the wolves of healthy diets and tofu. This is the pizza That will love you back. UNCONDITIONALLY. It's been far too long since I've given you all something to seize over. This little idea actually came to me in a skype conversation with our own Robikku Pegasus (Thaaaank yooooouuu ). I've worked it all out in the pink brain-meats in my skullbucket. Now, I have to caution you all: THIS IS STRICTLY A CONCEPT. I HAVE NOT YET CONSTRUCTED THIS. ATTEMPT AT YOUR OWN RISK. Now, as for what you'll need: -Pizza Crust -Mashed potatoes -Corn (frozen will do) -Hamburger -Canned chili beans (preferably with spicy sauce) -Kidney beans -chili powder -shredded cheese -hot dogs OPTIONAL: -Jalapenos -Minced garlic -Oregano -Italian sausage So the concept here is to construct the illegitimate child of a shepherd's pie and a chili dog. In a pizza. The pizza is like the cradle I guess. OKAY! So, obviously the first thing you're going to want to do is get started on the pizza itself. This will probably work best if we just bake the crust first, leaving it empty. So do that! Make sure it's in a decent bowl-y shape to hold the other components. Then, the interior stuffing of the pizza. To do this, we're going to use the groundwork for a basic shepherd's pie. Cook your mashed potatoes, add your corn and ground beef, and MIX. Oh, and make sure you cook the beef and corn too. Yeah. Do that. Make sure you save some of the ground beef for the second portion. What good chili doesn't have ground beef? Don't answer that, because it's entirely possible to have a phenomenal chili without ground beef but that doesn't matter right now. So what you want to do now is make some chili! This is where the rest of the hamburger, beans and sauce come in. SAVE THE CHILI POWDER. It will all make sense soon, shhhhhhhhhhhh... This is also where you can throw in your optional ingredients. Personally, the garlic and sausage appeal to me most, but you can really add anything. Celary, onions, more meat, additional seasoning, whatever suits your fancy for a wonderful chili. While the chili is cooking, it may also be a good idea to boil some hotdogs. You're gonna make a lot of dishes for the sake of this lovely being. Once it's made, you'll want to drain it a bit. Excess sauce will just make this more difficult than it has to be. Pour some of this chili on top of the pie mix and make kindof a bullseye. Spread it out from there so that it covers the surface. Now, the tricky part. ADD CHEESE. Spread it over this pizza as much as you like, and then throw it back in the oven until it melts. Everything else is already cooked, so you're golden! Once the cheese is melted, cut up some of your boiled hotdogs into slivers, top the pizza with it, and THEN give it all a dusting of chili powder. You're done! WHAT HAVE YOU DONE?!?! Analysis: I don't know, as I said I haven't made this yet. It's strictly in it's concept phase. However, I'm weak in the knees just thinking about it. I'll make sure to update this entry once I've actually cooked it.
