Thrylos

Nexi listened closely and nodded. "Come this way. Bring your friends, too." The blind zebra turned and trotted slowly, tracing her way back, super sensitive hooves feeling every grain of sand. "I have seen much, and I will tell you more once we have made it back..."

Your guys idea on the power probably fits, but I'm thinking the power of any weapon or mount adds to your base power, so if you have an awesome weapon with an awesome mount it'll help a lot.

Also, can I add in Amy Ironhooves on my next post? I feel like adding a more lighthearted character into this sad world.

Of course!

why dont we list our skills, experience, equipment, and any other additional factors and let thrylos decide.

Crescent Blaze

Experience and Skill:

-Special talent is incredible levels of focus, determination, and confidence achieved through skill in swordplay and flight.

- Former resistance member, defensive and offensive military tactics, advanced leadership role.

-Trained in multiple forms of combat since early childhood (hoof to hoof, swordplay, improvised assault .etc)

-as a colt attended advanced flight camp, dropped out and trained himself as a self taught flight expert, became captain of his own team the AeroBlades.

Equipment/Weaponry:

-NightFire, Ancient magically resistant (not impervious) Falchion sword, Forged from steel smelted from a meteor's Iron, incredibly sharp and durable, never needs to be sharpened.

Probably a good idea!

Storm Dragon

Experience and Skill:

-Deeply experienced with fighting tactics, and a master of beast control and creation, so most not as smart animals like Wilden, who can speak to ponies, is easily willed into Storm's control, where he can mix them with another animal using a tool kit he always carries with him.

-Trained in many survival skills, and proficient with almost all weapons, even weaponless.

-To the point, Storm was trained deeply with a wonderbolt, and now flies twice as well, faster than almost any living beast, but still cannot beat the flight of a lightning pheonix-this is one of his dreams.

-Will do anything for the good of his country-inside he really believes what he is doing is good for Equestria. But some of the things he does aren't quite what should be done, basing much of his choices, due to being just a prince, on the suggestion of a much eviler advisor, Hell Razor, who Storm Dragon is not old enough to understand he shouldn't trust his advisor.

Equipment/Weaponry:

-Usually has a mount, since he is much more comfortable with a beast by his side.

-A small dragon necklace.

-He also usually carries with him two curved swords at his waist that he can kick out and grab in his mouth.

I'd make a character for this!

Dark Bolt just looked at the filly, not in the slightest amused. Being called a bully...this filly hadn't known his life. He wasn't a bully, just plain evil. He laughed slightly, but that was just to hide the dark shroud that covered his eyes when he wanted to hurt somebody.

"You think that wooden sword will save you from my powers? If I had any mind at all, I'd send you to the dungeons. But I'd rather kill you quickly." Dark Bolt tried to make it sound all like a joke, but his mouth formed a sneer, and he couldn't stop the cold stare he gave everyone.

The blind zebra felt the pony from before, along with another, trying to help her, and Nexi growled, pushing them away with annoyance. Standing up, Nexi dusted her striped pelt and sniffed a little, ears twitching, so she could tell some more about these ponies. The first was a pegasus, of unknown appearance built a strong build. She also smelled sweat, so probably both were tired and hungry. Feeling the other ponies movements, he was probably just an earth pony, and with a speedy build. But another, in the back, a youngster, spoke to her, and to the battle scarred zebra his question was a surprise. Very few looked to her eyes to first think of her, though they usually did later. What most saw first was the hardships of her whole life, from the scratches covering every inch of her body, and her destroyed eye.

"I am, if you wanted to know."

Dark Bolt laughed darkly when the little pegasus attacked, but slowly lost interest and pushed his hoof into the fillies head.

"Hey, kid. Quiet down. If you want a monster, try smiting me."

CrescentBlaze: I think making it so anyone can win randomly with a random uber attack is unfair. My thought is that everyone is a certain level of power, and the more ponies fighting the better chance of winning. I made an exception with the Wilden/Beast fight, but I don't plan on doing that again. Either die or run if you don't have enough fighting power on your side.

tyler008bon: Probably just PM me. I would be happy if you could "suggest" the thread, but make sure they know to PM me if they want to join.

Thanks!))

A heavy had begun on the plain. The patter of rain on and left puddles of slushy mud underhoof. Tears hit the ground as Storm Dragon looked down at the mangled body, the work of his mother and him. All he had strived for...left to rot to bits. He had trained the dragon that had been stitched with the life force of a unicorn had been his only friend all his life, even after being turned to a beast. From filly to prince, that red dragon had been beside his side, only to be covered in its own blood. That night, Storm Dragon swore on his life to kill that wolf...he would die!

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The blind zebra Nexi heard a voice, and jumped when she felt, though deeply muted by the sandy grains of the ground, a far of pony take a fighting. Quickly, the resistance zebra replied in Pro's general direction.

"I am Nexilii Zecenda of the Rebellion! Please don't hurt me, I'm no more than a mere scout." From here, Nexi couldn't feel, smell, or hear anything that could tell which side this pony was on, so she took the best looking defensive stance she could muster, just causing her badly injured young legs to collapse, and Nexi groaned, not with pain but annoyance.

Yeeup!

Will try for both!

((okay if I make what comes out of the bushes?))

Dark Bolt sighed. "Thats your secret? Yeah, people would think you evil, but its not that bad...for me, that is." Carefully, Dark Bolt removed the concealment spell and stretched into his full height and majesty before stepping out only to Draco and looking down at him carelessly.

((A Continuation of the first chapter of No Lands End I may turn this thing into a fan fic, I'm so glad my idea has gone so far!))

I'm glad Crescent actually ASKED me to join him. This plot seems wonderful, and I'd love to join.

Dark Bolt laughed coldly. "Your not much of a pegaus, are you." The alicorn smirked at the cloaked pony.

Dark Bolt smirked. "Fine with me." Fluttering down, Dark Bolt slithered into the alleyway, out of sight. "You really want to know my secret?"

Ink Soul listened as Spirit spoke to her, then turned quickly to Gray. "Oh, this?" Slowly, Ink levitated it out. "I would love to read it..." As Ink watched Gray, he had a bad feeling for why the light had faded in his eyes, and started to count the few bits he had.

The work got hard and frustrating, not that Dusk Sky had tired. It was the nicey-nice attitude to even the bossiest ponies that was required that drove the earth pony insane. Turning this way and that, Dusk had just barely escaped a fight with one of the costumers. Thinking it would never end, Dusk prepared for it to go on until closing...but turned to see the crowds filtering out. Grabbing the random entering pony, it was pretty much empty. Smiling a little, Dusk Sky felt the navy stripe in her hair, and combed it down to its silky norm. Then, sitting herself down next to Stormsong, Dusk sighed, and offered Stormsong a sunset yellow hoof to shake.

"Sorry for pulling a rush in. Let me introduce myself." Dusk Sky began. "I'm Dusk Sky, captain of the airship, Star Wing."

Dark Bolt turned to a sound and had only a second to think. If he hit the rock or if it hit him, it might just make his concealment spell wobble give for a few seconds-not good. If he used magic, then it would be even more obvious. But already he reacted, using a spell just long enough to slow it enough to make it drop right before hitting. Getting angrily to his hooves, the striped black alicorn(disguised as a small, pegasus with Pinkie-style purple and pink mane) growled at Draco.

"I guess your just as curious and suspicious as I am." Dark Bolt wiped the edge of his mouth with his hoof and set it back down. "You want a mystery? Come get it!" Dark shot up over the streets and laughed. "I dare you."

Slowly, the foggy rainbow on his vision cleared slowly, and the pegasus heard only the ending of Crescent Blaze's words

"You are okay, aren't you sir?"

Hops slowly got to his hooves and saw Fleetfoot upset expression. The older pegasus sighed and cheerily layed a wing on her back. "I'm fine, sweety. Don't get angry at yourself." Hops patted her on the back, then the beer brown pegasus brought his wing back to his pelt and grinned lightly. "I'm sorry for complicating both of your days. I was just hoping for a nice vacation..." He shrugged, but inside Hops was deeply annoyed with himself.

Ink Soul turned from the wind whipping across he face and throwing his silver mane about, and the young stallion looked at the pony in surprise. "Well, I guess you could say that..." Not being used to being social like this, Ink Soul didn't know how to react. Look the gray unicorn in front of him up and down, Ink turned back to the wind. "There are lots of wonderful things you don't see when your sitting about your house making your life dream live on..."

((Okay, okay! ))

Dark went around the corner to see the pony had gone...poof! But, being the sly alicorn he was, looked about. The pony couldn't have gone that fast unless he had teleported...or flew up. Though his thoughts were on magic, what sort of pony hid they were a unicorn? Being a unicorn meant royalty...mostly lords, after the alicorns. The two alicorn leaders were Astria and Maximus, both powerful, wise, and...most importantly...his own parents. His way of going for more evil ways. But the concealment spell he now used kept him under cover. The hidden pony couldn't be an earth pony, unless their big, burly peasant workhorse life had made the pony the speed of lightning. That left only flight...but why hide wings. Dark Bolt sat down, contemplating and looking at himself. Only ponies affected by concealment could see his true form...a tall, lithe, black striped pony with big feathery wings and a broken horn protruding from his dark purple and blue hair.

Whitetail Woods...calm, quiet, and mysterious...the perfect place for stress relief, and even as a cousin to Everfree, this wood held a much more peaceful feel within. The dawning light hit the late spring petals falling of the blooms, filling the air with a rainbow rain of glowing blossoms. Peryton lay within this twinkling forest, heads bent the grasses and plants beneath the trees, tranquil but still watchful. A cracking sound reached the winged deer, who turned their heads and stayed alert. Knowing the danger was gone after a long wait, the went back to nibbling, but being watchful slowly moved on to the next feeding ground.

This was where a young writer went on his own, tired from his works in the cafe and his writing career...all he wanted right now was a rest in the wilderness, with no bothers, just himself. Using some of the money he had left, the black unicorn levitated some clothes, a notepad incase his writing nature made him antsy, onto the airship and hopped on, riding down to a small group of lodges near Whitetail Woods...

Ink Soul was the unicorn's name...stepping into the ship, he looked about the small ship, led by the infamous Captain Dusk, an old mare who was experienced in such things, and Ink sighed at the instant blast of clear mountain air out on the unprotected deck of the ship. putting his stuff down below, the unicorn set himself looking out from the side of the ship's deck, on the glorious day ahead...

Thrylos thought about it for a second, then her eyes lit. "You guys! I know all of those names from the forums too, SilverSwirl!" The teal pegasus filly twirled about and flew a little into the air before her wings shuttered, and her nerves got the better as she set her hooves back on the ground, teeth rattling a bit. "Umm...best I not fly until I know how to..." Thrylos looked about the group, and instantly knew the names now.
