  1. Since I have assumed the role of Futtershy, I wanted to know if there were any ongoing RPs that Willow Wisp was involved that that anypony wants to continue. If not, if there are any RPs that anypony would like to see Fluttershy in. PM me or just respond to this post.... um, if you don't mind that is...
  2. Updated the "Occupation" section on Brian's reccomendation.
  3. Name: Fluttershy Sex: F Age: Young Mare (1 year older than Pinkie Pie) Species: Pegasus Pelt Color: Pale Yellow Mane/Tail/Markings Color & Style: Long pink mane and tail with a bit of natural curl Eye Color: Teal Cutie Mark: Fluttershy's cutie mark is three pink butterflies. It represents her love of animals and creatures of all kinds, and her ability to communicate with them. After she fell off a cloud during a race in flight camp, Fluttershy was saved by a flock of butterflies. It was the first time she had been that close to the ground, and she quickly fell in love with all the animals and birds that she had never seen from her home in the clouds. Just as she was getting to know the animals around her, a sonic rainboom from the ongoing race scared away all of her new friends. Fluttershy began to calm the animals down, and discovered that she could communicate with them as well! As she settled in with her new animal friends, her cutie mark appeared. Physique: Fluttershy is perhaps a little heavier than a typical pegasus, due the fact that she spends most of her time on the ground. Her wings are not very muscular, though she is able to pull a cart through the air if necessary. Origin: Cloudsdale Roleplay Type: Mane RP Occupation: Animal Caretaker. The area around Fluttershy's cottage is essentialy a large, open-air animal shelter. Though not a veterinarian, Fluttershy works closely with the vet in Ponyville, and will take in animals that need long term care and rehab. She also allows ponies to adopt pets from the shelter. She feels bad when she has to ask ponies for bits when they adopt animals, most ponies are more than happy to donate. Motivation: Fluttershy personifies the Element of Kindness. She loves and understands almost any animal, even the strange creatures from the Everfree Forest. She can't stand to see an animal hurt or sick, and will go out of her way to care for then, even if that means taking them from their owners. Though normally very quiet and shy, if her friends or her animals are threatened, she will defend them fiercely... with a strong lecture and use of "The Stare." Likes: Animals, spa visits with Rarity, her five mare friends, sewing (but just as a hobby), music, (she directs choirs of birds), finding ponies their perfect pet. Dislikes: Loud noises or surprises, too much attention, fashion modeling, mean ponies (or griffons, or draconequis), Nightmare Night, huge, gigantic, terrifying, enormous, teeth gnashing, sharp scale having, horn wearing, smoke snoring, could-totally-eat-a-pony-in-one-bite, totally all-grown-up dragons. Character Summary: Um... Do I really have to talk about myself? Please Fluttershy? It's for the application. Ok... my name is... Fluttershy and, um... I ... *squeak*! *Sigh* It's OK Fluttershy, at least you tried. Fluttershy grew up in Cloudsdale, but she never really felt like she fit in there. She was never a great flier, and felt more comfortable on her hooves. Her bashfulness also left her rather lonely among the other pegusi who tended to be more out-going. It wasn't until her parents made her go to summer flight camp that she found a friend, Rainbow Dash. Though Dash was brash and impulsive, she always stuck up for Fluttershy against the bullies that would tease her. In fact, Rainbow Dash was doing just that on the day they both got their cutie marks, racing to defend Fluttershy's honor. After that day, Fluttershy began spending more and more time on the ground. She became particularly close to a rabbit she called Angel Bunny, after she rescued him and nursed him back to health. Though Angel tends rather bossy and mean at times, he would do anything for Fluttershy. Fluttershy eventually left Cloudsdale and moved into an old cottage on the edge of the Everfree Forest, outside Ponyville, where she could better care for her animal friends. Fluttershy struck up a close friendship with Rarity, the local fashionista in Ponyville. Rarity's out-going generosity made a good balance with Fluttershy's quiet shyness. She met and befriended Applejack while getting supplies for her animals, and Pinkie... Well, Pinkie Pie introduced herself of course, before throwing Fluttershy a big party. (Fluttershy spent most of the party hiding in a corner.) It wasn't until Twilight Sparkle came to Ponyville on the eve of the Summer Sun Celebration that Fluttershy found more friends she could open herself up to. Oh yes! When I met Twilight, I was scared to talk to her, but then I met Spike, and I had never met a baby dragon before, and he was SO cute, and I started talking to him and then... Oh, I'm so sorry, was I interrupting? No, no, Fluttershy, go ahead, this is your story after all. Ok, um... Well anyway, after, um Nightmare Moon... I had five of the best friends in the world! We've done so much together, and they've all helped me to be... um, not quite as shy. I've gotten to know Zecora, the Cutie Mark Crusaders, and even Princess Celestia and her phoenix, Philomena! Oh, and, um, Princess Luna. She was kind of scary at first, but she’s really a very nice pony. You were briefly a fashion model, were you not? What was that experience like? *Blush* Oh, I didn't like being a model at all. All those cameras and all the publicity! I was so so glad to get back to my friends and my animals. Princess Celestia recently held a large public ceremony to thank you and your friends for your defeat of Discord. Has your life changed any since then? Well, no, not really. I mean, I had to hide from some photographers for a few weeks… but they didn't stay in Ponyville for long. Everything is pretty much back to normal. Oh, but now, Princess Celestia wants all of us to write her letters, and she had us all act in the big Canterlot Hearth’s Warming Eve pageant! There were some rumors going around that Discord somehow affected all of your personalities. If that's true, how did it affect you? OH! Oh... I.. um... don't want to talk about that... Big dumb meany Discord... ((Note: I will place Prince Blueblood back up for adoption if I'm selected to play Fluttershy))
  4. Well, I'm 36, and this bookcase is in my bedroom: http://i187.photobuc...06-07170925.jpg Does that answer your question?
  5. I got to play one weekend in the Beta, and got early access last Thursday. Every quest in this game has full voice acting and interactive responses with the NPCs. It's really impressive. I'm in a Brony guild on the Vronskyr server if anypony wants to make a character / alt on there.
  6. A few ponies looked up in curiosity as Blueblood stepped out onto the carpet. He put on his most charming smile. “GREETINGS CITZENS OF PONYBERG!” he yelled out, using the Royal Canterlot Voice. (In Blueblood’s opinion, the Royal Voice was the ONLY good thing that had come from Princess Luna’s return.) “YOU MAY ALL RISE!” he continued, failing to notice that nopony had bowed to begin with. Only after his introduction did Blueblood notice the two pegusii that had landed on the carpet. They didn't appear to be a welcoming committee, and they were both getting DIRT on the red carpet! Blueblood tried to ignore this. This was a little hick town after all. From the mud, perhaps they were laborers? That must be it! In a town like this, he couldn't expect a proper valets, so they must have brought in a pair of peasants to carry his things! With a brief flicker of magic from his horn, Blueblood deposited all of his numerous bags and suitcases at the hooves of the pegasus stallions. "Thank you... gentlecolts," he said, a bit uncertainly, not sure how to address the stallions. He floated two bits out of his purse, one for each of them. "I'm staying at the village inn... wherever that is..." He then stepped around the pegusii and continued down the carpet. As Blue blood trotted toward the Mayor's office, his first destination, he noticed that somepony had set a table off to the side of his route. He glanced at it curiously, before noticing what was placed on the table. The big unicorn stallion shied away with an inarticulate shout. "EWWWW! What IS that?!" he cried out. Starched Collar spared a glance at the offending baked good. "It appears to be... a pie, sire," The stallion said, dryly. Blueblood hid behind his butler, peeking out at the table. "Take it away, Collar! You know how I feel about those... things!" Starched Collar struggled to maintain his proper demeanor. The Prince's irrational fear of cakes and pies stemmed from an incident at a previous Galla. He seemed to think that the baked treats were out to get him. "Sire, I'm certain that the pie is harmless... perhaps we should continue to the mayor's office?" he offered to the royal stallion. "I shall ask that it be removed before we return." Blueblood shook his head to regain his composure. "Yes... yes, of course. The Mayor will be expecting me," he offered before moving away. Starched Collar hung his head in shame before following. The Prince quickly regained his royal poise. These county rubes would be so awed by his presence they would not even notice his slip. "Prince Blueblood, your majesty! Please spare a moment of your time!" Blueblood looked down as an orange earth pony dashed up to him. She appeared to be carrying a large scroll. The Prince was confused for just a moment, but then realized just what she wanted. A pony in this town stood very little chance at seeing one of the Royal Family, so an autograph would be quite a momento! Thankfully, he was prepared for this. He levitated a quill and ink from Collar's bags, before taking the scroll from the pony. He unrolled it a bit, ignoring the fact that there was already writing on the scroll. He signed the scroll in large letters before re-rolling it and passing it back to the mare with a winning smile. He passed by the earth pony, keeping the quill ready should anypony else desire his royal signature.
  7. Lets see: I've probably spent about $30 on the molded pony sets, $10 to order a molded AJ from Ebay, another $15 to get the set with Luna, crystal Dash keychain, Pinkie Christmas ornament, probably $20 in Second Life for pony stuff, plus $5 to some place called Canterlot.com... So maybe $100 in total on pony stuff since I started watching back in March. That doesn't include the gas money I spent driving to different Big Lots, Target, and Toys R Us locations to find the specific stuff I wanted... My next pony purchase might be a T-shirt, but like others have stated I'd want something subtle. There are a couple I've seen that just advertise the "Pie Family Rock Farm" that no one but another brony would understand.
  8. This has happened before in dubs of cartoons. In "Beast Wars", the Japanese dub turned Airrazor into a guy to boost toy sales to little boys. Since Airrazor has a romantic relationship with Tigatron, it made for some awkward moments for a kid's show. But still, we have at least two bronies on this site are in Poland, you guys need to be complaining about this!
  9. It really depends upon what you want to do with the story. You might have a plot or a goal in mind, or you might just give a story a starting point. The individual personalities of the other RPers and their characters can sometimes take a story in a direction you hadn't anticipated. If you have firm goal, you can communicate that in the RP or in PMs to the other players. If you don't have a firm goal, you can just react to what the other characters say and go along. Anticipating what another player might write next is part of the fun of this .
  10. There has been dicussion on the board in the past about what weapons a military pony could use. Lances strapped to the side were discussed as a weapon for fighting dragons. I can definately see a version of jousting as a sporting event and training for Knights. As for sword use, we did kinda see a pony mouth-wielding a sword in the show. Ok, so it was Pipsqueak and the sword was rubber, but it it was still a sword in the mouth.
  11. I thought of this tonight, and want to see if I can get it to catch on: Rarity's Dad. Football cutie mark. Mid-western accent, possibly Wisconsin. His name needs to be "Packer."
  12. Normally in this RP, to be related to another character, you put that relationship into your character application. Then, the person that owns the character you want to be related to makes a post under your application approving the relationship. Keep in mind that under normal circumstances you are not supposed to make a relationship with any of the cast ponies, but creating relationships with other original characters is fine. Also, our board has a large OC pony family called the Nut family, who own nut farms across Equestria. For info on the Nut family, refer to this post: The Nut Family
  13. And here I was sure that the S&S curse would hit Diamond Tiara too. Diego really must have Lady Luck in his pocket...
  14. Snips was starting to loose his concentration. His magic was still not very strong, and he couldn't levitate anything for more than a couple of mintues. He gritted his teeth as his horn began to sputter, a sure sign he was about to loose his grip on the poison joke flowers. Then, Princess Luna herself appeared in the forest, and her booming introduction made him loose his focus all together. The flowers fell by the wayside as he stared up at the Princess of the Night in awe. Most all of the ponies in Ponyville had seen Princess Luna at the celebration when she had been rescued by the town's six famous mares, but she had appeared much differently then. Snips stumbled out of cover, and bowed before the regal Princess. After giving all the assembled ponies two peices of candy, she left to rejoin the festivities. Snips realized that this time, the poison joke still seemed to be in effect, but he barely noticed as he bounced up to Snails and Aloe. "Wow! Both the princesses were here!" he chimed happily. Luckily, Aloe seemed to have given up on her plans to try and capture Discord, if he ever showed up that is. She still offered the colts a dose of the remedy to get rid of the effects of the poison joke. "Oh please please PLEASE, Miss Aloe! After tonight, I just want to be normal again. Then, I'll go home with this candy. Nightmare Night is supposed to be scary and fun, but I've had enough scary for one year."
  15. Snips hobbled over to the branches Aloe had pointed to, still levitating the poison joke flowers. He still wasn't sure this was a good idea, but after the night he'd had he was a nervous wreck. The idea that maybe they could get back at Discord for all the misery he had caused was the only thing that got him to go along with it. He crouched down... or tried to. His balance was still way off. He looked and saw Aloe and Snails getting into position, and began to wait tensely. after only a moment, his horn started to spark and sputter... Uh oh...
  16. From his position on his belly, Snips could look Aloe in the eye. "Are you sure about this, Miss Aloe?" he said, uncertainly. "I mean, yeah, I'd like to get back at Discord, but..." He eyed the blue flowers in her pocket nervously. "I don't even wanna think what a third dose of that stuff would do." Seeing Aloe's determination, Snips sat up and began focusing his magic. He squinted his eyes, staring at the poison joke flowers. Two of the blooms began to glow, and then floated toward him. "Ok, Miss Aloe," he said. He concentrated on keeping the flowers floating and keeping them away from anypony. "We can try this, but, um, I'm not so good with magic yet. This will have to be quick, I can't hold these for long."
  17. We're cursed ponies, Miss Tiara. CURSED I tell you! You'll end this event candyless, poison joked, or both! Seriously, Hoss and I have crumby luck, 3 Discords, so 3 times poison joked.
  18. Snips and Snails entered the forest like a two-headed pony. Snails was holding up Snips' right side, while Snips had to act as eyes for them both. At least with Snails' longer legs, was wasn't tripping on his long mane as much as Snips had. Both of their costumes were in tatters though from the repeated effects of poison joke. "Slow down Miss Aloe! You don't know what's in there this time!" he shouted ahead to the tiny mare. Aloe had run ahead, saying she was going to try to catch Discord this time. The last time they'd been in the forest, there has been some strange red eyes off the path, and maybe an ursa. Snips and Snails were worried at what might happen to the masseuse pony. When the colts finally caught up to the tiny jester, she had stopped to talk to somepony. A filly in what looked like an expensive witch costume, with a tiara over her hat... Oh, no. Why did it have to be her. Snips pointed a hoof at Diamond Tiara. "What are you doing out here Tiara..." he said, angrily, then immediately fell over on his side again as he lost balance on his mismatched hooves. Ugh.. He and Snails were NEVER going to live this down. To add insult to injury, Tiara's candy pail was full to over-flowing. Maybe if he was lucky, that ursa would come back and squash him...
  19. The unicorn filly talked strangely, almost like she wasn't used to talking to ponies. With the tactlessness of a foal, Snips started to ask her "Why do you talk so fun..." but then Discord appeared. AGAIN. Snips just dropped to the ground, and put his hooves over his head. "Aww come ON!" he said to himself. "How could this get any worse?!" This time it was strange though. The long hair suddenly vanished from his mane and tail. Wait, did Discord actually HELP them? Well, he was the embodiment of Chaos, who knew what he would do? Snips jumped to his hooves, and immediately fell over onto his right side. He brought his from hooves back up to his face, and saw the problem. He now had 4 left hooves, just like Miss Aloe had earlier. Looking around, Aloe had shrunk dramatically, and Snails had grown a super-long mane and tail. "Now this is just weird..." he complained. The colt struggled back to his hooves, and hobbled strangely over to the statue of Nightmare Moon. He started scooping the candy back into his bucket with his right-left hoof, and fell over again. He glared up at the statue. "Thanks for nothing Nightmare Moon!" he growled up at the stone alicorn. That's when he noticed a strange sound coming from the unicorn filly. He wasn't sure what joke the poison joke had played on her, but that noise was really annoying. Over the sound, he heard Aloe's plans. "You want to go BACK in the forest??" he said in shock, but the foal-sized mare had already run off. He looked up at Snails. "Yeah, we better go after her," he said, "Somepony could step on her.... or worse." He didn't want to think about the 'worse.'
  20. Snips perked up. Wait, that was right! Miss Aloe ran the spa in town, she knew the cure for poison joke! He jumped to his hooves, fell, then got up again. "Oh my gosh, that would be great Miss Aloe!" he told the mare. The colt finally took notice of the other unicorn that Snails and Aloe had been speaking to. She actually had flames floating around her! He moved some of his hair to one side to get a better view. "Whoa, that's really cool!" he said, his eyes going wide. "How'd you make the fire white? How d'you keep it from burning you?" Snips loved showy magic like this. Even though The Great and Powerful Trixie had turned out to be not-so-great and powerful, he still loved flashy, eyecatching magic after watching her show.
  21. Snips stumbled into the clearing. He was managing to walk a little better this time. Unfortunately, while walking out of the forest, he'd collected numerous twigs and branches and leaves that were all now tangled into his over-long mane and tail. "Maybe I should get a job as a rake." he mumbled to himself as he approached the big Nightmare Moon statue. The colt quickly up-ended his candy bucket in front of the statue, only holding back the two candies he had gotten from the Princess. "There, Nightmare Moon!" he shouted up at the statue. "You can have the candy, just keep Discord away from us!" Snips flopped back on the ground, exhausted. He barely noticed the ghostly pony that Snails was talking too, and he normally would have loved to see such a detailed costume.
  22. Snips ran blindly for a moment after the roar that had sounded suspiciously like an ursa. Only to run into something WORSE! "No! Not you again!" he yelled at Discord. The chaos creature laughed at the ponies on the path, then, Snips suddenly found himself on his back.. surrounded by familiar blue plants. "Awwww! Not again!!" he cried out. This time, the hair didn't grow out from his mane and tail, it just appeared, exactly as long as it had been before. Well, at least he was dry this time.. The colt struggled to turn over, then sat down to part the hair around his face. Sure enough, the rest of the group has gotten joked too. Snails was a tiny foal again, and Miss Lotus seemed like she had something wrong with her hooves; she kept falling over on to one side. Snips just flopped to the ground, feeling defeated. "Snails, I think I'm going to just let the forest eat me..." Then, he got an idea. "Maybe, if we give all our candy to Nightmare Moon, she'll stop sending Discord after us?" he said to the pair. He struggled to his hooves. "I'm going back to the statue! Err, I mean I'll try to follow you to the statue... stupid hair."
  23. Snips followed behind Snails a little more cautiously. It wasn't that he was scared of the forest... I mean not really... err... Ok, the Everfree Forest could be pretty scary, especially at night. But he was more afraid he getting in trouble from his dad. After the incident with the Ursa, he'd sworn never to go into the forest again. Snips hoped that during this special event it wouldn't count, but it still made him nervous. The sign at the beginning of the path proclaiming "Discord's Everfree Adventure" didn't help after his run-in with Discord himself earlier. He caught up to Snails as the bigger colt was talking to another jester pony. Or was she the same jester he'd seen earlier? The costume was different, but the coat was the same... maybe it was the gloom in the forest confusing him. He watched Snails bouncing around, and smiled, but said nervously "Snails, make sure you you don't get off the pa..." All three ponies noticed the glowing red eyes in the darkness off the edge of the path. "Gah!!" the colt yelled as he backpedaled away. He bumped into the pink stallion that had been with them at the statue. After a moment of panic, Snips realized that the... whatever-it-was, couldn't get at them on the path. He looked up at Snails' yelling, and couldn't help but laugh a little. "Heh, good thing nothing eats hydras. At least I don't think anything eats hydras..." As the group moved forward, the pink stallion caught up. He seemed even more scared than Snips was. A unicorn mare joined them as well, and the group moved in a tight huddle along the path. "Twi...Twilight Sparkle says there n-n-no such thing as z-z-zomponies," he answered Snails, nervously. That's when he heard an all too familiar sounding roar. "URSA!!!" he yelled, and began galloping down the path.
  24. As much as I'd like to see the CMC grow up some, I just don't know if it will ever happen. Kids in TV cartoons are generally doomed to be kids FOREVERRRRRR. (Look at Bart, Lisa, and Maggie Simpson.) The only exception I can think of for that is Pebbles and Bambam from The Flintstones who suddenly went from babies to teenagers. I will say, though that IF the CMC ever get their cutie marks, it will all be in one episode.
  25. Snips was all set to jump out and scare the other ponies in the maze like Snails and Haywire had done, when suddenly Discord appeared! "AHHHH!" Snips shouted incoherently as he turned and ran from the crazy chaotic being. He remembered all too well when Discord had taken over Ponyville, and made it his "Capitol of Chaos." He didn't even notice as his escape route took him through the patch of strange blue plants. As he continued to flee, his mane and tail hairs began to grow rapidly. His mane pushed back the hood of his costume and began to cover his face, while his tail burst free of the pointed hydra tail and began to trail behind him. Soon, he couldn't see a thing, and he was tripping over his own mane while still trying to flee. The colt finally slowed to a stop after falling on his face several times. He could just barely make out Snails' voice somewhere nearby. He sounded strange, but he couldn't see why through all the hair. "Um... er... Snips? I think we'd better get to the Nightmare Moon Monument ta find Zecora!" "That's probably a good idea, buddy," he managed to get out. "I'll follow you, but I can't see a thing!"
