TheRedFox

A small grey mare paced back and forth backstage, her face hidden under a dark black hood, the only real aspect that could be seen in the dimly lit room were the crimson red shades, flashing quickly each time she looked up at the stage. After several minutes the mare would take a deep breath and sit down, closing her eyes behind those tinted lenses and speaking softly to herself "You can do it Ivory...its just another gig...don't worry about the massive crowd...and all the famous ponies....just do what you love."She said softly, a small red glow coming from the hood before engulfing it, pulling it tighter around her head, the mare just looking down and waiting. After several minutes, the current music would stop, and after a minute, the current DJ would exit the stage, walking past the mare who would give her a quick "Good job" before casually walking up the stairs, her face still closely hidden behind the hood of her cloak, and the crimson lenses of her glasses reflecting in the bright lights illuminating the stage. After a quick look across the audience, the mare would step up to her table, a quick flash of crimson light coming from her hood and touching the table, the whole system coming to life with the touch of the unicorns magic. With the sight of her creations coming to life the unicorn would give a quick grin, nodding her approval before another quick beam of magic would run across the rack of lights mounted under her desk, nodding about their performance before yelling into the crowd "Are you ponies ready to party!?" She would call out with a smirk, giving them a teasing bass beat before calling out again "I can't hear you!? I said are you ponies ready to party!?" she laughed, giving a soft rhythmic nodding as she started her bass line, the quick beats starting before she started on the synth, the quick, bass heavy rhythm and the flashing multicolor lights began to form her signature sound, with an extra touch. The dark black cloak covering her head began to radiate red light from the magic of her horn, the pure energy of her magic beginning to rip holes through the hood, beams of red light rushing out wherever it could a place to. The mare would begin to softly nod her head to the beat, her hooves moving to adjust the sliders for the balance, and volume of different parts of her setup, the mare obviously very good at what she did, and she knew it, even if she was terrified of messing up yet. The mare quickly began to relax as the beats flowed, the lights picking up their pace as the rhythm did the same, the pony yelling into the crowd again "Let me see you move!"she called out, the magic of her horn having now shred the hood of the cloak into non-existence, allowing the crowd to finally see the mare's face, if they could see past the strobes.

Roleplay Type: Mane RP Name: Ivory Stage name/ Alias: DJ-Ivy Sex: Female Age: Barely a Mare Species: Unicorn Eye Color: Purple if you ever get to see them behind her stunning crimson shades Coat Color: Dark Grey Mane/Tail/Markings Color & Style: Her mane is a dark black with a sharp white stripe down the middle, her tail following the same color scheme. Both have a matching messy look to them from the constant head banging and exposure to loud music. But how else are you supposed to party! Physique: Ivory is a small, slim built Unicorn that takes pride in keeping herself healthy. Cutie Mark: Two bass clef’s in the shape of a heart Her cutie mark comes from her love of music, in particular, her love of bass (Drop that Bass!) Origin/Residence: Ivory was born and grew up in Canterlot, where she still currently resides. Occupation: Ivory is currently working at a Music shop, but is an aspiring DJ and musician. Motivation: Ivory wants to continue her musical studies at a University level and become a famous DJ, like many of her idols. Likes: She loves music, it is her life and all she lives to do, and while she loves her techno beats, she has a secret love for the classical that started her passion for the arts. The unicorn is also an avid party goer, attending every dance, rave, and party she can get to. Dislikes: Ivory hates lazy days and any night she isn’t out and about. Because she is a sort of social addict, she also can’t stand ponies that are unfriendly for no reason. Character Summary: History: Ivory was born to a wealthy family in the social loop of Canterlot. At a very young age the unicorn discovered her uncanny talent for music and was placed in a private school for musically gifted Unicorns of a wealthy background. The Unicorn lived a fairly normal life from there, learning the social responsibilities of her family’s life style and learning all she could about music and magic from her teachers and priding herself on being in the top of her class. However, this all changed when the unicorn attended her first alternative concert with a friend from school as a young filly. At this concert the unicorn heard a new type of music from a very talented unicorn. This music followed none of the rules her usual classical music did, and the light displays and the loud bass beats intrigued the unicorn and excited her too this new music, until it was all she could think about. After the concert the unicorn began to play tirelessly on her piano, always trying to recreate the music she had heard that night, but never with any luck. After this the unicorn would sneak out of her house as often as she could, visiting as many clubs as she could to hear more and more of this music, the rhythm, the bass, it all engulfed her until she couldn’t stand being unable to make it. This is when the unicorn switched her method to one of a more ingenious nature. The unicorn began collecting old piano’s from her school and elsewhere, ripping the strings out of the insides and replacing them with different cables to recreate the sounds she wanted. After several months of experimentation it solution finally came to her. Through a mixture of specially crafted piano wire and direct access to the metal that held them, the unicorn could flow magic power through the strings, changing their frequency when hit, creating the sounds she wanted. This breakthrough only inspired the unicorn further. Her work became more precise each time she modified a piano to her new contraption, until she managed to make a model that was barely bigger than the actual keyboard itself, and even shortened it down to only the keys she really needed. The unicorn then began to work tirelessly on perfecting her music, and her set up. First the beginner DJ started by stacking 2 of her newly designed keyboards, learning to set each to a different sound, and control play both at the same time using her magic. Soon the unicorn developed a system to link her newly designed keyboards to the existing speaker units and mixing boards available to unicorns with magic strong enough to power them. After nearly a year of non-stop practice, the unicorn decided to step up her show, designing a stage table to mount everything on while she played in order to hide the equipment, and more importantly, cover the bottom in multi-colored lights in a random pattern, each pointing out to the crown and only activated when struck by the unicorns magic, creating an amazing light show for all of the audience to see. However, this also drains the unicorn’s magic and energy on a much faster scale, forcing her to build endurance, which still hasn’t totally come to her. At first, the unicorn kept her projects and late night club visits a closely guarded secret from her parents, knowing they wouldn’t approve of this new “riff raff” type of music. But as the unicorn’s passion for her new music grew deeper, it was harder for her to keep her grades in school up, as well as her studies in the classical music she was required to learn for school. This drop in her grades was quickly noticed by her parents, as were her numerous projects. After a fairly large fight, the unicorn’s parents threw her out, leaving the now young mare to fend for herself in the cold streets of Canterlot with only the money in her saddlebag and the contents of her room. The unicorn quickly found a cheap apartment on the other side of Canterlot, closer to the club district. After the original shell shock of being thrown out and having to move into such a small apartment, the unicorn quickly began looking for a job, finding a rather cozy employment at a piano shop helping customers pick out the perfect piano for them, and also gaining access to their workshop to continue her modifications and development of her skills. Through the music shop the DJ began to book small gigs, slowly working her way up to small clubs debuting some of her new music. The unicorn has now been living on her own for nearly 9 months, and while she is mostly adapted to her new life, she still experiences light shell shock from her now common and poor life in Canterlot. Personality: Ivory is a very smart unicorn, with a passion that drives her towards music of all kinds, however this new obsession with the progressive music known as techno has driven her into the unfamiliar club scene, that she has adapted to very well, partially from her past lifestyle in the social circles of Canterlot that were so important to her parents, but mostly from her overall friendly nature, making her very social and outgoing. This trait has served her very in making a lot of friends in the music scene, such as club owners, other musicians, and anyone else that crosses her path. The unicorn has quickly adapted to her new life as a common pony in Canterlot, and shows her stripes as a party pony at all of the clubs, however, she couldn’t dispose of every part of her old life, nor would she want to. The DJ often indulges herself with some of her old habits, especially playing the more classical music on her only unmodified piano that rests in the corner of her crowded apartment, a constant reminder to the mare that she gave up a life of luxury for the music she loves so much, AND HAS NO REGRETS!

After sleeping on it I am going to go through and change the spelling of her name to "Cinder" so the current spelling is open for a dragon =^.^=. (I kinda forgot that ISN'T how you spell Cinder.

I knew I would hear about that, but I did LOVE Cynder in that game.

Roleplay Type: Mane RP Name: Cinder Sex: Female Age: Young Mare Species: Pegasus Eye Color: Orange Coat Color: Black with a light grey marking on her upper flank. Mane/Tail/Markings Color & Style: She has a more wild and wind brushed mane and tail from her many hours spent flying each day. Her mane is a flame yellow with a red streak running down the entire length. Her tail is very much like her mane, and very much resembling an open flame as she flies. Physique: She is a small, slender Pegasus with a very sleek build. Her entire body says she was built to fly. Cutie Mark: Her cutie mark is a small ball of fire with a trail off the back. Origin/Residence: Cloudsdale Occupation: Works full time as a Weather Pegasus, but runs her own personal delivery service on the side. Motivation: Her current motivation is to make a new life outside of Cloudsdale, starting with new friends in her new home! Likes: Flying is one of her favorite things, enjoying both long, casual flights, and speed runs, however she has grown to be deeply obsessed with her speed, especially at high altitudes and in daring dives. She also enjoys learning about Equestria’s rich history and their pony heritage. She also very much loves to travel and see new things, will occasionally enjoy the more ‘girly’ luxuries of life. Dislikes: She dislikes showcasing her talents in any way, competition, and conflict of almost any nature. Character Summary: Cinder grew up like most other pegasi in Cloudsdale, attending flight school with the rest of the ponies her age. However; unlike the other pegasi in her class Cinder barely graduated from flight school, but not because she was a bad flier. In fact Cinder is a great flier, having taken the lessons they would teach at school and trying them on her own after class, she simply copied their exact routines and developed her flight skills alone, but when she was with the others, or in front of her teachers, the fiery Pegasus would refuse to fly her best, or race with the others. To this day she still doesn’t fully understand her strong disposition against competition and even showing off her impressive flight skills. She will in fact go out of her way to hide them from every other pony she knows, and keeps them as a highly guarded secret, which is why her fireball cutie mark confuses so many of the ponies she grew up with. This tightly guarded secret made Cinder a sort of outcast at her school, and the target of much ridicule from her peers, to which she never felt the desire to stand up for herself about, the Pegasus being more than content knowing the truth for herself and allowing her classmates to have their fun at her expense. As she matured into a young filly and gained more freedoms she began to take her private flight classes farther and farther from Cloudsdale, exploring in every direction one could imagine, including up. Soon she discovered that by flying up as high as her wings would carry her and then going into a sharp dive, she could gain more and more speed, until she could barely pull out of her daring dives, and soon this became a passion of hers. Each day after class she would fly away from cloudsdale to an empty stretch of land and perform dive after daring dive, the force of which would push her fiery mane and tail back in such a manner it made her appear as a flaming meteor, falling to Equestria from the heavens. It was this great passion for the speed and intensity that earned her the fireball cutie mark. After Cinder graduated Flight School with mediocre grades at best she began to work as a weather Pegasus, mostly traveling from Cloudsdale to the many other cities of Equestria with messages about upcoming weather and other information to the other pegasi weather crews. This meant that she had plenty of time to fly on her own from one place to the other, allowing her to work more and more on her flying abilities out of the eyes of everyone else she knew. Soon after Cinder discovered she could make a more money by running small packages for other pegasi from Cloudsdale to whatever city she happened to be traveling to that day, and any town or stop along the way. The Pegasus soon earned a name for herself as a reliable deliverypony and got more and more jobs on the side, many of which she does over her weekends as an excuse to get away from Cloudsdale and see the other wondrous corners of Equestria. It wasn’t long afterwords that Cinder had enough money to move out on her own, renting a small apartment in Cloudsdale and starting a life of her own. Cinder has always been a sort of odd pony, preferring to walk around alone, lost in her own thoughts, but she is never opposed to the company of another pony, she just doesn’t go out of her way to get it. The Pegasus is also notorious for enjoying her own little world, and can often been seen casually strolling about, or flying across the horizon without a care in the world, or an idea of what’s going on around her, which has landed her through more trees and windows than she would ever care to admit. Cinder does however have one major personality trait that dictates most of her life. She feels no need, and actually goes out of her way to hide any talent she has. She knows she is good at flying, and that many ponies would be impressed with her developed and well-honed skills, especially the risky dives she loves so much, but she has no desire to let others see these talents, and goes through great lengths to keep them concealed. The pony is also a bit of a doormat at times, not to concerned with the ponies that bullied her growing up, and in fact she was more than happy to allow the other ponies to have their fun at her expense because of her overly laid back nature. However, this type of social experiences when she was a filly has ultimately left the young mare with very few true social skills, she is an overall kind and caring pony, but she has never had any true friends to experience life with. This has left her in an odd situation now that she truly wants friends but has no idea how to make them. The Pegasus also has a small case of obsessive compulsive disorder when it comes to the order of things in her house, even if most can’t see the pattern of these things, she is very picky about them.
