DustyCharm

"I suggest the Tangy Greenapple Cupcakes." The brown goggled pony pointed a hoof at the small group of cupcakes in the display covered in green frosting and glistening with sugar crystals. "Then again I have a weakness for sour and tangy treats." Dusty chuckled.

Hey thanks for the review! Removed any mention of a mushroom in paragraph 3 and changed the origin of his cutie mark story in paragraph 4.

(Critique like Fluttershy critiques a dress!) Roleplay Type: Crossover Name: Tomes Sex:Male Age: Stallion (dead) Species: Pegasus Eye Color: Right eye is white, left is black with blue gem puple Coat Color: dull straw yellow (like that of aged book pages) Mane/Tail/Markings Color & Style: Black with blue highlights Physique: Lean and decayed Cutie Mark: Closed Book Origin/Residence: Born in the Everfree forest centuries ago. Currently following DustyCharm around to familiarize himself with the new world. Occupation: None yet. He doesn't think he'll be able to get an actual job in the public eye. Motivation: Helping out where he can and try his hardest to keep any one he may meet from running, screaming, or getting sick. Likes: A good book, talking, learning something new, and enjoying fragrent smells. Dislikes: Being called a zombie pony, loosing his head, being looked at with disgust. Character Summary: Tomes is an undead pony recently discovered by DustyCharm somewhere under everfree forest. Tomes isn't sure why or how he's a zombie pony, though he is incredibly offended when called a "Zombie Pony". Being an undead pony from a time long past has made it rather difficult for him. However; Dusty has grown to be a close friend with Tomes, after the undead pony had managed to calm the startled digger. When ever the pair came near a town; Dusty would take books out of the local library for Tomes to read. Allowing him to get familiar with the new age without making his presence known. Familiar with the new world and eager to see it; Tomes is friendly and eager. Aware of his decaying appearance he goes to great lengths to keep himself clean and odor free. So you may see him cleaning up in a river. In his spare time, which is all he has, he's often keeping his mane and tail tidy, reading, writing in a journal, or making a new tail or mane (as he doesn't have a real tail or mane any more) vvv Tomes vvv (Blurry because I lack a scanner) Description: Undead pegasus many centuries old. Leaving his coat a dull straw yellow like those of the pages of an old book. Patches of black stitched on his right back hoof, right front leg, half his left front and back leg. His left eye is black with a blue gem as his puple and his right eye is milky white. Stitches run along his jaw on either side of his head from the edges of his lips. His mane and tail are both black with blue stripe highlights with a polished gold collar at the base of his tail. Both are fake as he no longer has natural hair. His left wing as been broken off and is missing while his right's feathers are tattered and ruffled. He can not actually fly any more. vvv His Cutie Mark vvv

I purposefully make mine unorthodox and unusual. Dusty is a prime example; I mean come on, a Canterlotian unicorn that loves dirt. XD

well it sure couldn't have been easy to make. Doesn't look very good in the anatomy department but damn. I bet I couldn't make it XD

Hmmm...Evil Luna makes it dark and a bit cold Evil Celestia burns everything *Weighs hooves* hmmmmm....

Oh age, the arrow-knee crippler of MLP Shipping XD hah. Though it WOULD be cute and heart warming for Rarity and Spike to get together as I think it would at least look legit. However looking into the actual age/general age factor it does seem like an impossibility. But who would want to ruin what the two have know? C'mon it's funny to see spike act as her pin cushion!

well I did what I did. Still fairly long though, not sure how I could best shorten it up XD but there!

unpossible! yeah I'm shortening it. I go a little over board with story telling some times.

IT'S LOOOOOONG....bleh I need to make a summary of my summary....summaryception?

Looooooads of digging. Working on the summary...it's gonna be big XD

(Be super-critical please! I'm ready ) Roleplay Type: World of Equestria Name: Dustycharm (Dusty or Duster for short) Sex: Male Age: Stallion Species: Unicorn Eye Color: Black Coat Color: Brown Mane/Tail/Markings Color & Style: Mane and tail are primarily black with dirty brown towards the ends. Both of which are messy and terribly unkept and while they are both covered in dirt they are not filthy. Physique: Average most ways around. Standing like most any other pony his age with perhaps a little bit more than average muscular build due to his line of work and passion. Cutie Mark: Wooden Mallet Origin/Residence: Origionally born in Canterlot into a prestigious family of jewlers. Later finding his passion and talent which lead him to roam over Equestria freely. He doesn't call any one place his home. He calls Equestria his home. Occupation: Miner and construction! Or destruction, depending on what the job calls for. He doesn't work for any one pony or group of ponies. Earning his bits as a pony for hire when ever somepony needs a massive amount of earth moved, excavated, or leveled. While also maintaining several supply lines of minerals, ores, and jewels to ponies whom need them. His prices are some of the best in Equestria because he looks only to make what he needs to live with and finds very little in monitary wealth. Motivation: Dusty's motivations can flucuate now and then. More often than anything it's the thought of discovery. What could be beyond this bit of dirt or behind that rock. Discovery is his passion and the depths of the ground make his home. Some times though life of course will get him down and not even discovering a pocket of fire rubies will make him smile. Those times he finds his drive and smile again in the smiles of his customers or conversation with fellow ponies. Likes: Digging! Thats his biggest like of course and is in the ground 90% of the time. He likes cloudless nights and a good pie. Meeting new ponies and having a good conversation. Dislikes: Mushrooms. He hates mushrooms but can make a mushroom stew which will knock your horse shoes off. He also doesn't like to be disturbed while he's working. Character Summary: (summarized) Dusty was born in Canterlot to the pair of prolific Jewelers: Mr. And Mrs. Charm. Dusty wasn't always the down to earth dirty pony he is now. Having been born into high society he was brought up to act like the high class pony of his parents and peers. He didn't care for it but while in the public eye he stood straight and proper with not a hair out of place through out his early Colthood. Training under his parents in the art and trade of fine jewelry craft; his father was the master of metal work where his mother was the fore most in gem cutting and location. Dusty found a niche in gem cutting as he couldn't shape metal into anything but a slightly more attractive lump. Dusty first got his hooves dirty during a gem hunt with his mother. They were looking for a particularly rare gem for an intricate and lavish tiara for their newest and most important customer. The piece had to be finished for the Grand Galloping Gala and it was fast approaching. Several days of searching up and down Ghastly Gorge yielded plenty of other gems but not the illusive Sun Drop they were looking for. A gem which is said to be touched by the sun and the magics of Princess Celestia herself. Glowing in the darkest of rooms a warm yellow light. It was rare and they had given up on finding the gem the night before the Gala. By some stroke of luck or magic; Dusty had an overwhelming urge to dig. Just dig where he stood and he couldn't stop himself. His horn glowing and aiding his rapid excavation into the ground. Dusty emerged, much to his mother's relief, covered in dirt and holding a bright glowing Sun Drop in his mouth. He passed out the moment he climbed from the hole. His mother carrying her young colt home and the treasure he dug up. Thanks to Dusy; Charm Jewelers were able to finish the tiara. The customer payed an extra fifty percent on top of the cost because she was so pleased with the piece. Thus the story of Dusty started. Over time his perfectly kept mane and spotless white coat would take on a rugged dirt covered look. He didn't get his Cutie Mark until a few years later after a chance encounter with wondrous cave. To this day he still dreams about the sight within that cave. Dusty accidently tunneled into a cave during his many hours of digging and underground exploration. Dropping down from the roof of the cave he looked up to see a magical sight; mica coated the walls in the dark cave, glittering and sparkling from the few rays of light leaking down his tunnel. He sat admiring the almost night sky like appearance for several hours. When he emerged from his hole he was astonished to see a Wooden Mallet upon his flank. It was his Cutie Mark! But a wooden mallet? That didn't make any sense, did it? He liked to dig so why not a shovel? That's his special talent after all. Was it? Or did it represent hard work or the basic tool of almost any job? He still loved to dig, and that's what he wanted to do! Later he came to realize the wooden mallet represented his crude appearance and the hard work that came with it. Dusty left his parents and Canterlot the year he entered his Stallionhood. Setting out to explore the deepest depths of Equestria and renaming himself; Dusty instead of his original birth name but keeping the second part. Dusty Charm gradually made a small reputation for him self. Starting at Ponyville as a construction pony for hire when ever a foundation needed to be excavated or a field rid of large stones and boulders. Later moving on and fanning out over Equestria, mostly through a slowly growing network of underground tunnels he bored out. Soon he started supplying ores and minerals to places like Appleloosa, gems and rare metals to Canterlot (primarily his parents) and Manehatten, and even marble and granite for the picky hotels of Las Pegasus. He was a small suppler but was known for providing the best to offer and the best of prices. Unfortunately he could never meet demand and is best known as a specialty dealer of fine earthly resources. To current date, Dusty is known in some circles; mostly artisans or construction ponies who would have found him for his unique talent to move massive quantities of earth or find the rarest of resources. This has formed him into a friendly social pony whom is eager to help any one asking for it. However he does spend most of his days under ground tunneling and digging out of pleasure or work. So he can be hard to find unless you feel rumbling under your hooves. Years of darkness has left his eyes hypersensitive to light which is why he's always seen with his tinted goggles. Of course underground can be dangerous and he's gotten into a few tight spots; marked by scars on him where he had healed and his coat took on a grayish tone. Not to mention his identifying ear which was injured from a sharp stalactite. Most recently he wised up and aquired steel shoes to both help him dig and protect his hooves which had constantly been chipped and damaged from all the wear and tear. Dusty isn't without his downfalls though. He may be a nice and friendly pony in person but if you interrupt him while he's digging he can get a little short tempered. If you ever manage to get to him while he's in the middle of digging a tunnel or excavating a bit of land it's best to leave him alone or wait till he notices you. Thats his big social downfall, the others are more physical. In the sense that he can't swim his way out of a puddle; sinking helplessly like a stone. Or paralizing fear of flying; he can easily do a forehoof stand on the edge of a cliff but if he's in the air and his hooves aren't touching the ground he's no more use than a pony shaped paper weight. Lastly he wouldn't call it a conn but he's always covered in dirt. His natural coat is a pure white but thanks to his favorite past time it's constantly browned by dirt. That doesn't make him filthy though, it's "a clean dirty" he calls it. He smells of fresh earthy soil all the time and may shed a little dirt here and there but for the most part he's not actually dusty like his name may imply. So in short: Dusty is a Canterlotian work horse whom specializes in digging digging digging! Friendly and hard working while constantly wearing the marks of his labor and love.

Another Dusty! Huzza! Well I'm no master blacksmith myself. I need to rebuild my forge though and make a better fire pot for it.

Danka Danka, glad to be here!

About Myself: Just another brony looking for a herd! How I found Canterlot.com: Google How I became a fan of MLP:FiM: Gave into curiosity. My favourite main cast pony/s: Fluttershy I meander about looking to make friends and a possible good RP now and then. I'm reasonably open and honest while easy to talk to. That's what I've been told so there may be a bit of truth there! Aspiring artist and blacksmith; I live in the northern US where it is VERY cold. Thankfully spring seems to be springing on us here. I'm done with the snow. (I wrote more but didn't choose a favorite mane 6 cause Luna is my favorite and all the above fields were emptied SO just going to add a little spit here instead of rewriting those.) (Attempt 2: So i decided to not re-fill in those introduction windows as I already lost alot of content and submit with this bit here and my selected mane 6 character. It denied me again; thats rather annoying and I THINK should be fixed. Just my opinion there.)
