No offense Jester, but you really shouldn't use the same post in every intro thread when the person has clearly stated that they are interested in the RP. Anyways, welcome to Canterlot Bladerock! Trust me, I know that feeling, as do many others here. Hopefully you'll love this place as much as the rest of us ^^ It's mostly to keep out spam bots Feel free to go introduce yourself to the other newbies to get your 5 posts. That's what you think! Muhahahahaha! 1. Locations are mostly for organisation. You wanna move somewhere? You're there. RPs aren't always in chronological order, so if your characters says that they recently went to Canterlot, you can then start an RP about what happened. Just don't cause any time paradoxes! 2. What do you mean? The cast characters? 3. I don't usually see updated tags, we generally just bump an app when it's been updated and remove the WIP tag when it's done. Hope that helps ^^

A perfect way to go through life really. Welcome aboard!

OHGODNO You think that's bad? I haven't read the fic myself (might just do so one day) but as I understand it, Luna is actually the third mother. Work that one out!

I don't know Pony Central. Tell me more Also: Welcome to Canterlot!

Aww, she's adorable! I love her design! Good luck with the app!

Art of the Dress. Before it, Rarity was okay as a character, but nothing interesting to me. Afterwards she was my favourite character for a good three weeks, which for me is a pretty long time. It made me like her as a character and sympathise with her plight. And the way the song was sung too, especially in the second part when you can feel the frustration in her voice, is incredible. Compare how she sang the line "dress-making's easy" in each half and you'll know what I mean. The second time round she sounds so... defeated. Plus it has a good tune, so that helps. Also special mention to Cupcakes, for making me randomly hum/sing it when I'm alone. So catchy

Hey all, Found this article on ED (buried in one of the nightly round-up posts where most folk won't see it) and found it pretty interesting. A discussion on how Lauren Faust leaving the team is not nessesarily a bad thing (yeah, I know we discussed it way back, but still interesting) plus a little bit about the effect the fans are having on the show. Interesting stuff. I apologise for any spelling mistakes I made with this post. I think I fixed em all but I'm very tired and RSI is affecting my fingers >_<

Well, crud. Okay, well... That's a pity. Maybe I can retool him into another creature later. I suppose he could work as a diamond dog or something. Okay then, if you could move this into the crossover section I'd be grateful.

[ Creature - Cactus Cat ] Name: Saguaro Sex: Male Age: Adult Species: Cactus Cat Eye Color: Amber Physique & Colors: Saguaro appears to be a large cat (slightly small than the average adult pony), covered in long, red spines. His coat is a greyish brown, with dark brown spots Residence: Painted Pinto Desert Occupation: None. Saguaro mostly lives off the land, when not taking hand-outs from ponies. Likes: Friendly ponies, anything pony-made; especially hats, cactus juice, balls of twine (he is a cat after all) Dislikes: Diamond Dogs, Vultures, Thunder and Lightning Character Summary: Born and raised in the Painted Pinto Desert like most cactus cats, Saguaro lived a simple life of hunting and drinking cactus juice. The eldest of a litter of four, Saguaro was the first to leave his family to strike out on his own. Simple survival in the wastelands was not enough for him though. Running from wild dogs was no fun. He felt like he needed a true purpose in life. He found that purpose when not too long ago the Appleoosans began making their settlement. Intrigued by the sudden influx of colourful creatures he had never seen before, Saguaro began watching the ponies from afar. He loved their brightly coloured coats and manes, the designs of their clothes, the architechture of the buildings, and when he got in close even the way they spoke. They weren't anything like the boring old buffello tribes, or those smelly diamond dogs. They were fascinating. He debated whether or not to introduce himself to the settler ponies. He had already seen how poorly they got on with the nearby buffello, though he suspected that probably not the fault of the ponies themselves, who seemed friendly enough with each other. The descision was made for him, however, when he noticed a small group of foals out in the middle of the desert. He didn't know what they were doing but it was clear that they had been out in the sun too long and had not come prepared. He knew he had to help them, so he pulled them into the shade and found them some water. They were incredible grateful to him (though he had to refuse the hugs. Impaling those you have just rescued is bad form). Aparantly they had decided to explore the desert in the hopes of finding their "cutie marks" which would give them their purposes in life. Saguaro was amazed that such a thing was possible, but he certainly sympathised with the young ones. A purpose in life was important. He helped them get back to town and to their parents, who had been worried sick. When the foals told their parents about the "friendly spikey kitty" that saved them he was given several gifts: some food, a genuine "cowpony" hat, and a declaration that he was an honourary citizen of Appleoosa, welcome to stay and go as he pleased. He had never been so happy. Nowadays he still lives just outside of town, never really feeling comfortable living inside buildings, but often joins the ponies for town events, and he always keeps an eye open for ponies who would attempt to brave the desert unprepared, just in case. He helps out in various ways about the town, mostly lending his survival skills to explorers, prospectors, or cartographers in the area. As a hobby, he collects pony-made objects; horseshoes, tools, furniture, and so on. He loves Appleoosan fashion, though due to his spines he can only wear hats, of which he has quite a collection. He generally wears a different one each day, though he wears his "hero hat" (as the local foals have dubbed it) more often than most. He frequently wears a pair of round, dark glasses too, more due to liking the style than any need to keep the sun out of his eyes. Saguaro is a very friendly cat, loves to chat with anyone about anything, and will always lend a helping paw to anyone in need. Notes: Cactus Cats have been on the approved species list for a while, but no one had apped one before. Seeing a chance to do something unique (Hipster points! Lol) as well as get myself a character for adventure-type RPs I figured I'd put this together. I wasn't too sure what to do for Cactus Cat culture (something I guess we could discuss in the Suggestions section) so I kinda made them... I dunno, wilder, than other creatures? Griffins have cities, buffello have tribes, Cactus Cats are nomadic I guess. They hunt for food and drink cactus juice (and acording to Wikipedia get drunk off it) and... I dunno what else. Hence the [WIP] tag. If anyone has any ideas feel free to post.

Woah. I wasn't expecting that Wish my Maid rpg had gotten that much interest I'll start off somewhere else then. Also I'll have to actually get into the chat one of these days o_o

Ohhh, all over Equestria eh? I thought we were all gonna be in the Everfree Forest XD Or was that the case before we all decided to jump in?

I'm liking this idea! But.... sooooo many good episodes in the Manehatten bracket. I can't decide!

In all honesty, I'm not sure it works like that for ponies. It seems that for them a cutie mark is a destiny of sorts. It always relates to what they like/want in life. Consider: 1) A cutie mark always seems to relate to a special talent that the pony is good at, even if it doesn't seem like it at first. Consider Twlight, who could barely do magic when she was young, until that fateful day at the entrance exam. Pinkie Pie didn't even know what a party was until she threw one for her family etc. So even if you really loved cats, if it wasn't your destiny, you wouldn't have gotten a cat cutie mark (a kitty mark? ) 2) A cutie mark doesn't stop a pony from doing anything else they want to do. Pinkie is good at throwing parties (hence the ) but she also works as a baker. Applejack works on the apple farm, but she is also an athelete who enters rodeos. 3) Thus far we have never seen a pony complain about his/her cutie mark. I think it's safe to say that ponies probably view cutie marks as something that tells them who they are and what they can be, rather than any kind of constraint. Humans change throughout life, but perhaps ponies just always find their true path early in life. Hence why I say it's destiny. My personal theory is that the Princesses created the cutie marks all those centuries ago as a way of making sure that every pony felt special, no matter what.

For the Canterlot RP: The Movie thread. Should be fun Name: Diego Havoc Sex: Male Age: Stallion Species: Unicorn Pelt Color: Pale Blue Mane/Tail Color & Style: Green, with white streaks, shoulder length and straight, but slightly messy Eye Color: Turquoise Cutie Mark: A film strip with a musical note ♫ on it Physique: Tall and Thin Residence: The UK Occupation: Publisher Motivation: To live an easy life, to be internet famous, to one day have superpowers (no, really) Likes: Food (especially free food), games (of many types), music (of many types), being creative, the internet Dislikes: Mushrooms (seriously, ew), being laughed at, being kept up at night by loud noise, crazy people Character Summary: "Now this is a story of all about how my life got flipped, turned upside down, and I'd like to take a minute, sit down, you'll see, I'll tell you how I became a My Little Pony..." Diego never wanted much out of life. Enough money to live comfortably, enough free time to pursue his hobbies, someone to love and to love him back, and of course, complete and total magical supremecy. Living in a world without magic, that last one was always going to be out of reach. Until one fateful day when he woke up with a unicorn horn...

Hmm. Why not? I do hate asking for freebies... But I do love receiving then How about Creepy Crawly, my bug collector pony? No pics of my own so here's as best a description as I can do. Earth pony colt. Average height, maybe a little on the skinny side. Think similar to Caramel's body type. His pelt is charcoal (very dark grey) and his mane is mostly dark brown with some dark green streaks in (two in his mane, one in his tail). Got an earthy theme going with him. His mane is kinda scruffy and spiky, short but sticking out at all angles. His cutie mark is a gold spider in the middle of a spiderweb. If you need more details let me know ^^

Awesome stuff! Can't wait to see those pictures! ^^ Shame to see the gala go, but all good things must come to an end. I followed a few of the RPs and saw some really great stuff. I'm glad that Dark Side of the Gala and Tango to Terror were picked for top 3, those were probably my favs Grats and thanks all around I think. Already looking forward to the next event

Yeah, I played that one the other day. Really creepy, but very cool. Honestly, considering how linear it is it's almost like an interactive fanfic, but it works really well.

Haha, oh wow! That would be perfect. The fans would eat that up Yeah, this. Something to help alleviate the problem of cloning. Enough background ponies that there aren't dupes in a scene.

I would record it, but.... Mum: "Um... Did you accidently record My Little Pony on the sky box?" Me: "Accidently...Yes. Let's go with that ¬_¬" And yet, I've seen every episode twice anyway XD Perhaps I'll wait until Hasbro releases the DVD as they are totally gonna do *_*

Mmm, I think it's unlikely that we'd get it at the same time as the US. Which is a shame. 'Cos if we did I would totally skip work and endure the humiliation from my family to watch it XD

Welcome to Canterlot!

Welcome to the boards!

Just a quick heads up; my internet connections been real sketchy this weekend. Hopefully its just a minor glitch but it could mean less activity for me for a while. Ill try to keep you posted.

or cinnamon rolls, for that matter Fussy, fussy, fussy. XD

This is a good thing. We need more British bronies! Alas, it will air at 3pm while I am at work, so no full screen for me. I'm not fussed though. As long as I have youtube I'll be happy.
