SeaSkies

really cute ! I love Angel's expession like "Oh really . . .>"

Blue Lagoon yawned widely as he looked out at the coast. Sunset, his job was almost over, he watched happily as a few young fillies that were in his class splashed around in the shallows of the ocean. He felt very at peace with the world as he rested his head down on his hooves. smiling blissfully. At that moment he felt very content, soon he'd be walking home to house, and getting a good night's sleep. he used his magic to push some sand around a little piling it a few inches high to make a very lazy sand castle. He shook his head to stay awake, his eyes kept drooping shut. What he needed righ tnow was some exitment to wake him up properly.

Sea skies let her wings carry her lazily on the sea breeze and she glided shoreward on a beautiful sunny afternoon in her hometown. She took in a deep breath inhailing the salty sea breeze and lowering herself a foot or two so her hooves skimmed the top of the water. She peered down into the crystal clear waters and watched the tropical fish dart away from her shadow. looked towards the soft sands of the shore as she pulled in towards them, letting her wings drop her an inch or two so she landed on the beach, waves lapping at her ankles. She began to slowly trot towards to the town. Something speical was going to happen today. She could feel it in the warm breeze that played with her mane pulling her inland stil further.

Hello, sorry if i've been neglecting you, i've been sorting out a few of my own characters ! I think we're about ready to start !. So this is the end of all OOC chat ! RP starts now ! _______________________________________________

Maybe when her wings burt, it hurt the first time, but beacuse she knew so much about herbs and potions she could her herself back to health ?

Roleplay Type: Equstia RP Name: Vintage Value Sex: Female Age: Mare Species: Unicorn Eye Color: light lime green – misted over ( She's blind) Coat Color: Purple Mane/Tail/Markings Color & Style: black, quite long, but a lot longer when its wet or straight as its usually quite curly and puffy Physique; A little overweight but not by too much, moves very strangely, her love of long cloaks that hang over her legs combined with the fact she takes small steps giver her the appearance of floating everywhere. Cutie Mark: Pocketwatch with long chain coiled up beside it Origin/Residence: Born in Canterlot but she moved out to Appleoosa later for the quieter atmosphere. Occupation: Runs an antique/repair shop Motivation: Rescuing otherwise beautiful old objects, her favourites are pocket watches or most things with cogs. She also loves rebinding old scabby books that have fallen into disrepair. As long as she has all he pages given to her in correct order as she can't see the words on them Likes: Old things, Antiques, The smell of old books ( even though she cannot read ) pocket watches. Dislikes: Heights, over crowded places, people making fun of her eyes, Heavy rain ( it messes with her sonar), or being in very large empty spaces. She tries to go for built up areas with a few ponies in them, but no too many. Character Summary: Vintage is the youngest of five, being the youngest by quite a bit, the sibling above her being a filly. Consequently while she was growing up her parents were getting on in years and weren't quite as able as they used to be. This mean she was around a lot of older things seeing as her parents held on to them. Even though Vintage was born blind and so couldn't read, she loved books, her parents reading many from the extensive library they owned. Vintage, not being a stupid Pony was aware that her parents were very cautious around her, as she grew up she was not allowed the same freedoms as ponies her age did, and she knew, from asking them, that her siblings had not received the same treatment. This began to irritate her, but she didn't say anything. One day she was sitting in the library her father was reading to her from an old heavy book, about animals, she was only half listening, the summer sun was warming her coat, making her sleepy, but when her father mentioned bats she perked up. They were blind, like her, but used sonar to find out where objects were and were able to fly with ease, while Vintage obviously couldn't fly, it would definitely help her even just walking ! She began then and there to push out any kind of magic from her horn, and it worked ! A little, for the first time, she knew where the floor was in relation to the chair she was lying on. This relation made her jump up. It couldn't be very strong magic, as her father hadn't noticed anything, she tried again, pushing out the same relatively weak wave of magic to find her surroundings. While what she could see wasn't very far or detailed it was her first look at the real shape of the chair and of herself. She loved this new realization and began to practice with fervour, telling her parents what she was doing and having them help a great deal. However, she got most exited the first time she levitated something, while this wasn't any kind of special magic for a unicorn her age, something truly incredible happened to her, she saw real detail for the first time. She had picked up a book and could tell what the cover looked like, and what pages looked like, even though she could still not decipher words. This got her so worked up that she began to levitate everything, seeing the world in real detail for the first time, however, she never told her parents about this, leaving it as a surprise. Until the day she got her cutie mark ( see below). After that her father trained her up in the art of repairs, even though she didn't need much training, but the practice helped her speed incredibly. While she did like to repair things that ponies dropped off, she loved to rescue old objects more. To find an old dis guarded object that had been deemed broken for good or worthless by it's previous owner and fixing it up to its former glory and selling it on. Cutie mark story : Vintage's parents owned an old repair shop, had had long since given up training any of their children getting interested in the business before Vintage was born. Even after, they never trained Vintage into it as she was blind, and they thought she wouldn't be able to see any of the little cogs and things that it took to repair the things that they got in. Vintage however, could levitate the cogs and see them so clearly she could beat out her father for fitting them together, as she could focus so hard, being able to turn of any visual distractions from the outside world immediately, but this is what she kept secret, to surprise her family with. One day her father had been struggling with a particularity complex old pocket watch for a very rich client and had stormed out of his workshop in frustration, his wife followed him to give him comfort. It was then that little Vintage sneaked into the work shop and picked up all the cogs one by one, then the stopwatch. She could focus on all the particular little dips and rises in the cogs and fit them all together perfectly. It took her quite a while though, to push in each cog to where it was supposed to go. When she had finished she tested the watch by winding it up, the triumphant tick, tick tick, of the now functional pocket watch was one of the best sounds she had ever heard, letting loose a loud woop of exhilaration. The noise pulled her parents back through and her father, amazed at the now functional watch told his daughter that he'd never been prouder. It was then that she got her cutie mark, a pocket watch identical to the one she had just fixed.

She's so pretty ! i love that picture ! She'd be awesome friends with ZIggy ( my fortune telling Zebra ). If you're needing any help for her motivation maybe give her questions to ask ? like eg ( this is just off the top of my head you don't have to use this example at all !) she may not know who her parents are and so she tries to find answers in the night sky that she's always loved ? Just an idea, to have her be looking at the stars for answers ? As usual feel free to ignore anything i say if it wouldn't fit in with you're char

welcome welcome welcome !

Oh Ok, the pack thing makes more sence, i though she'd just stopped walkign and they hadn't turned aroud or something XP ok that's fine. I still find the voices thing a little confusing, but that's not to say it's not interesting or a good idea. I assume i'll see more of that if we RP and learn more about it as i see it being used !

" i love lollipops, anything sweet really, i'm so bad about it" laughed Sea Skies guiltily, "so what brings you to Hoofinton them ?" She sutrned to Klutz "WHeres your music school i didn't know there was one in town ! But then again, i'm preety tied to this beach, working in the lighthouse. Either of you got family here ?" Seaskies reeled around at the comotion behind her and laughed "seems everyone is taking a tumble today ! I'm Seaskies and this is Carousel and Kultz, and Kultz pet dove Sable" She said pointing to everypony ( and bird) in turn. " WHo are you ? yet another new face ! But is Kultz is anypony to go by, i'm not too great at knowing who lives in my own town" she laughed lightly.

Sea Skies aughed at the pair " I'm Sea Skies, I work here on this beach !, I've not seen either of you around, you both from here ?"

SeaSkies turned around tp see a very exited young filly who had just landed on top of her. "hello" she laughed at the little Filly's expression which was half exitement half paniced. "that was some landing !". She stood up using her muzzle to prop up the younger pony as well. " you got a name -" her smile widened as she remembered all the shouting from behind her. "- or should i simply refer to you as the queen of Equstia ?" flicking her wings alittle to shake off the sand.

Seaskies pulled herself away from the icecream shop, belly full untill she saw a white pegasus curled up on the beach. She lightly poked the stranger with her hoof "you ok ?" she asked in a soft voice.

Wow ! this is a lot diffrent ! You've made a lot of good changes to this ! - not that she wasn't good before but now she's more pony-cannon. Anyway just a couple of suggestion - a) her parents forgetting about her is unlikely so maybe something happened to get them separated ? Possibly they were both earth ponies and she was a pegasus ( like in the Cake family ) and when they were exploring she flew off for the first time andit could have looked like she died ? maybe it looked like she got cauht up in a waterfall and they tried to look for her but to no sucess ? She obviously survived though and was raised by the zebra ? Insanity would still not know anything about her parents so they could have just dumped her there for all she knows, but it would make her parents a bit more real too. I really like ther though and think the fact that she's a zebra raised pegasus is very interesting ! I think that could have also added to the times when she got frustrated and needed to fly off. Obviously when shefirst started learning she'd have a hard time and she'd have to work hard to get better. One more slight nitpick which is more of a tecnicallity then flaw in the characte, is you can't have her know Princess C. There are no previous relationships with canon chars allowed, i know it sucks but thets the rules. Maybe have Valkyrie push her into it ? he seems to have the ablility to push her to do things she'd otherwise struggle with. The other three voices in her head almost sound like possesion, which would be very interesing, if she could be like a spirit medium !

still working on her, been trying to hammer out a few details about her, will update soon !

Changing that now ! thanks !

Sea Skies heard a pony whisper beside her and almost lept out her skin, turning she saw a purple pegasus in goggles and a leather jacket. "uhm, yes" she said folding and unfolding her wings nervously. The wars, the rebellion, the assasionation, all of it had ripped the gentle pegasus so far out of her beach environment that she found herself at a complete loss. Her family either with unknown whereabouts or gone, she had fled Hoofington and reached No Lands End in hope of real ecsape, but so far she had not dared put a hoof over the boundry. The fear she could be leving behind family, friends, the life she has known and loved, stepping over that line meant nothing would evr be the same again. This other pegasus, who ever he was, was the other other living creature, let alone pony, she had seen since she got here a week ago. She shook her head nervously suddenly aware of how ragged she looked. A month of sleeping in ditched and hiding in bushes had not been kind to her once soft white and turquoise mane. She glanced up at the Pegasus again " whats your name ?" her voice comming out in a stange croak from lack of any real use in ages.

Sea Skies flew low over the beach, her hooves gently sweping through the soft sand. She smiled as she swurved lightly and hit the sea, flinching alittle at the cold water on her legs. She turned her head up towards the early morning sun and sighed happily. something good was in the air today she could feel it, she flew up higher to get a better look at the horizon, it was clear, not a cloud anywhere. A great day in Hoofington and a day of smooth sailing for anypony on the sea that day. A mild, wrm breeze picked up blowing the sweet smell of the ice cream shop over to her. 'never too early for a snack' she said to herself quietly as she let her wings take her over to the entarance of the ice cream shop.
