The cheapest quality microphones I can recommend are still upwards of 70+. Audacity is fine for recording, but if you want accompaniment you'll need something better. Yeah, you can just save up for a bit. Focus on honing your skills, join a choir or the like.

You have a method of recording yourself, I assume? What manner of instrument do you play? Do you know anything about composition? Depending on what you have I could always offer myself as a mixer or what have you. Also, check out mylittleremix if you haven't already. it's a hub for most brony musicians.

Ooh, you write stories? Cool, I read stories, I'll be sure to check yours out my friend. Welcome to le Canterlot!

Roleplay Type: World of Equestria Name: Thomi, alias Facette. Sex: Female Age: Young Adult Species: Griffon Eye colour: A stark gold. Coat: A dusky chocolate brown bottom half, with a lighter brown plumage around her face. Mane/Tail: Her dull white crown feathers are fairly short and styled into choppy bangs and ends. Her tail is typical, though the tuft of hair at the end is the same white her mane is. Physique: She's the usual half-eagle half-lion griffon size, equal height to a pony of similar gender and build but slightly larger and bulkier in body. She's strong and lean in her musculature, sculpted by years of hard physical labor. Residence: Currently lives in Manehattan. Occupation: Mechanist and drummer. History: Thomi was the smart one in her litter of peers in Talonpolis, the one who would always be tinkering around with things though she was no slouch when it came to horsing around. She was busy and active even as a child, always flying around from her own crude little inventions to sports and roughhousing with her friends, and she was usually looked up to by her peers as the 'cool' one, as her personality was quite solidly developed from a young age into what it is now, minus a few quirks and odd ends. Due to this fairly early maturity she was very quickly assured of her path in life being machine construction. She spent her teenage years in between schooling and apprenticeships with various griffons, becoming strong of body on top of being strong in mind as she was called on to do apprentice work like hauling around crates of spare parts and various other bits of hard work. She maintained her easy personality and open mind throughout, and was thus intrigued by the idea one of her final griffon employers gave her of traveling to Equestria and offering her now well developed mechanical services there. She had developed in the interim into an excellent technician, capable of working with all manner of basic machines like pulleys and windmills. In addition she also continued to casually tinker around, fascinated by the idea of automatons that could make daily chores easier. After she was out of school, she moved into Equestria and began to seek out employment. For a few years she worked in the industrial hub of Stalliongrad, where her services were well in demand. She became fairly well known among a generation of business owners in that city, for she was a reliable hard worker who was also easy to get along with. But she was a griffon, and eventually she determined that a change of location would be good for her health, as the cold and her did not agree very well. She moved out south, worked odd jobs in frontier cities for a while. It was here, during a stopover in Appaloosa where she would meet the mare who would change her up-to then fairly simple life forever. Thomi had never seen a crystal pony before, so she was wont to strike up conversation with a certain Blank Stone. She learned of the mare's great artistry, and as much as she inspired the mare she was also duly impressed and a little inspired herself. Some of her friends in both Aquellia and Stalliongrad had been musicians, but she had lived a fairly simple life, and before hadn't really considered the idea of trying out a new career. Blank Stone needed her, wanted her; and Thomi felt the same in response. So the two struck up a partnership. Thomi would now be 'Facette', her partner's fellow in experimental music. Now the duo travel Equestria while experimenting sonically, and while they do not always get along, they are both smart and inventive and as a result have great potential. Character Summary: Facette is cool incarnate, a nice and polite griffon who is almost impossible to anger or rub the wrong way. She's very relaxed in demeanor, it is difficult to find her in a hurry for any reason even if she realistically should be worrying about the time. This can be both a good and bad thing, while it's of course nice to always be the calm and collected one sometimes she can be too lax and not give events the importance they deserve. She's quite cheeky, and with her intelligence wit and humor are not far from her grasp at any given moment. Facette prides herself on maintaining an open mind, using her natural intellect to quickly learn things that friends introduce to her. She as a result has a variety of odd hobbies, she's a good dancer and drummer and she has an ear for music, not genius level by any means but certainly passable. She's not particularly stubborn, and sometimes she can be a bit of a doormat as she accepts things she should be rejecting simply because it's too easy for her to say yes. She's not dumb though, she'll normally be at the very least reluctant when roped into something she's not sure about being a good idea. Facette can also come off as a bit cold sometimes, because of her cool demeanor she doesn't often get mad or unhappy on a friend's behalf. However she's not by any means a bad friend, and she'll be a shoulder to cry on, though not really the best. She's just awkward overall when it comes to dealing with difficult times.

Fair enough. Do we know when he'll be returning?

That's what I was going to ask about, actually, but the IC doesn't seem to have updated in a while though.

So... I'm back from the dead, if anybody remembers me. Is this still active?

Lightning smirked, having been caught by the students entering from any further exchange with her students. Luckily she could always count on arriving late to class, since she'd have to wait for students to finish changing into their gym clothes anyways; it annoyed her anyways though, since she hated being late. She gave Mrs Black a curt wave, mouthed [colour=#00ffff]"Good luck" [/colour][colour=#000000]and briskly exited.[/colour] .

Lightning smirked slightly when Mrs. Black relaxed in her presence. An evil expression, to the untrained eye, as her smile was a sharp and cruel one. [colour=#33ffff]"They were frightened. We started out with a mile, points docked if you didn't finish in at least 8 minutes. Amazing how many kids think they're in shape when they're really not." [/colour][colour=#000000]Mrs. Dust pulled a s**** of paper out of the pocket of her hoodie, unfurled it and looked at it idly. [/colour][colour=#00ffff]"Mmm, the whole class. It was a good class, in short. A couple of them had the determined look. Lets you know that they're ready to put in the effort needed to improve. The rest of them aren't going to have a good year with me. Anyways..." [/colour][colour=#000000]Lightning sat herself on one of the desks, casually hunched over, looking right at Licorice. [/colour][colour=#00ffff]"What're you going to do with the second? Expecting anyone good?" [/colour]

A lonely figure strode through the halls of the school, not too quickly but with intent in her step. She seemed to be a student, her wear included a hoodie that was currently up, hardly appropriate for a teacher. And yet she seemed too worn, too serious to be a true student. Her eyes were already old with experience, young her body might have been. She approached the door of an English class, one taught by a Licorice Black; knocked.

I can do both these things. But information would help.

Excellent, I can make a character like canon no matter how much I twist them otherwise. Guess I am the best of the best, ain't I? /haughty laugh /go to post Wait, whos gonna be the 1st period teacher?

I'll probably have her teach several types (weights, fitness, possibly even a sport or two), on top of the health class, so that no one has an excuse not to have me in their schedule.

YOU WILL ALL SUFFFER

Yes, I am back and worse than ever. [colour=#FF0000]Name: Lightning Dust[/colour] [colour=#FF8C00]Sex: Female[/colour] [colour=#008000]Age: Mare[/colour] [colour=#008080]Species: Pegasus[/colour] [colour=#800080]Appearance: Average in body with a slightly extended wingspan, sea-foam green in coat with a neat and slightly butch mane of alternating colours of orange. Her standing posture is strong, her trotting gait powerful. Her countenance is perpetually aggressive even when not moved, in the energy that naturally burns in her eye and the fact that her nostrils are always slightly flared. In recent months following her expulsion from the Wonderbolts she took to wearing a hooded brown burlap cloak at all times, to obscure herself from other's eyes while she reflects on her lot in life.[/colour] [colour=#808080]Origins/Residence: Born in Cloudsdale, now a vagabond that wanders Equestria. [/colour] [colour=#8B4513]Bio/Background: Lightning Dust was from birth a powerful immovable object of a filly, hard to dissuade from her conceptions of what was right in this world. Ponies did not easily earn her respect, and eventually Lightning lost her respect for others entirely, simply treating them fairly when it was convenient to do so and ignoring them otherwise, so difficult was it for others to get through to her. She grew up with the insatiable drive to achieve, to conquer, and she made a point of trying many things as a child to find her talent. She gained many friends- lost almost all of them eventually- and tried a great many things to find her talent, weather shaping, rainbow making, baking, and so on. She ultimately found her talent in high speed flight, and became a courier between Equestrian cities.[/colour] [colour=#8B4513]She was offered a chance to join what she thought was the pinnacle of glory, the Wonderbolts. Lightning was impressed by only the Wonderbolts, and was sure that if she joined them she would indeed be the best of the best as her ambition demanded her to be. We of course all know the story from there; Lightning's personality was simply too twisted and she was deemed a disgrace to the Wonderbolts. The best had denied her. Suddenly without direction, Lightning fled into isolation. She quit her job, severed ties with family and the few friends who kept her contact, and went into wandering the lonely corners of Equestria.[/colour] [colour=#8B4513]Lightning's personality was such that she couldn't properly reflect on her fate and mistakes in life. Instead she vowed to better herself anyways, to prove to her monster of an ambition that she could still claim the title of 'best'. Reinforced in her twisted self, she set about on a quest to improve herself beyond what most ordinary ponies could ever hope to accomplish. Lightning herself knew that Spitfire, the mare she had once aimed to please, was privy to a little known technique.[/colour] [colour=#8B4513]The Phoenix Flame, the ability to cast blinding light and fly wreathed in fire as the legendary birds did themselves. Spitfire was perhaps well known for it, but Lightning intended to learn it all the same. She travelled to phoenix lands, impressed the beasts into letting her live among them as a young Spitfire had many years before. It was here, on the edge of Equestrian civilization, where Lightning heard whispers of things beyond this world, where magic and even ponies themselves were different. She heard, but she didn't believe. Instead, she learned. She learned slower than Spitfire had, but year through painful year drive carried her through and made her one of the few Equestrain ponies ever to gain such a rare power.[/colour] [colour=#8B4513]Lightning was now convinced, that to be the best as she demanded so terribly of herself, she would have to tease out and seize all the secrets and powers Equestria had to offer. So she returned to society, donned her cloak, and became a seeker of the hidden. With infinite drive, quick body, and burning will she will surely wrest out the secrets of Equestria... and perhaps beyond.[/colour] [colour=#B22222]Cutie Mark: A white lightning bolt being driven into three yellow stars.
