  1. Hello, everypony.  MasterMustang here to get a breath of fresh nostalgia.  Wow... it's been a long time.  Lots of memories.  Most good... some bad...  This place was such a great experience for me.  Roleplaying here was the most fun I had.  Contributing to and feeding off the great aura of creativity is still something I cannot describe.  I can say with a full heart that I miss you all.  Sadly, I have fallen out of the fandom as a whole and moved on but that doesn't mean I don't like MLP anymore.  I still and always will appreciate it for the art and subtle philosophical wonder that is a great show.  I may be a former brony officially but I guess that stuff never truly leaves you... just like the memories I had with you all.

    Catching up:

    Since my absence I have been quite busy with life.  Lots of bad with lots of good.  Faced several emotionally traumatic events as well as some heart warming fun moments.  Lots of stories to share.  I changed my major of study from Secondary Education to Chemical Processing.  Turns out teaching in the normal sense was not the path meant for me.  I then chose a career path that rewarded my father greatly and am now following his example.  I just have one year left of school!  HURRAY!!!  After that it will be off to my career and maybe some more time for other things with it (perhaps this place).  I've gotten into cosplaying since my absence.  I attended Youmacon in Detroit, MI, which was my first con ever.  It was fanastic!!! (I HAVE PICTURES!!! lol)  I am attending this year again.  I am currently making a genderbent cosplay of Yang Xiao Long from RWBY.  It is going to be my pride and joy.  I'm so excited!  I've gotten a lot better at playing Magic: the Gathering too.  I've made 15 EDH decks and have several more projects on the way to being built.  On a sour note, some of my companions have created quite a bit of drama in our MTG group so I sadly had to leave.  I've learn to distance myself from poisonous environments even if the people themselves are not.  It's a shame but something I think may fix itself eventually.

    I apologize if this seems rather scatter-brained.  I'm just writing down my thoughts as they unfold themselves onto this keyboard.  I just really wanted to pop in this summer and say hello to all my old friends like StarStorm, Scythe, Valencetiger, and BrainedBySaucepans (thanks so much for my avatar again!  you are great!).

    I also would like to take the time to pay my respects to a friend that I/we lost.  Dusk was such a good friend and RP'er.  She was so sweet and listened to me when I was going through my rough patch.  I'm sure she is happy with you all right now.  I can feel it.  Dusk, I miss you, mate.

    Well, that is it!  Hope I get to interacting with you all again.  Feel free to message me as I am going to try and check this often.  I have some gamertags too if you want to game with me: ChaseUFC79(XBoxLive) and FootlongHammer (League of Legends).  Farewell! ^__^

      Hi there, welcome back! I actually -do- remember you, and yes, it has been quite a while. Also I am sorry to hear about Dusk, I don't remember if that was a thing that was going on back then or if it's more recent. I know someone passed several years ago and that might have been her? Anyway, I think the fandom as a whole has died down a bit. We have a tight community here that still appreciates the ponies. I've personally felt my fervor for the franchise dim, but I still watch FiM and appreciate the characters and friends I've made because of it. If you want to roleplay again, you'll see a lot has changed, and characters you may want to play are more accessible than ever. Have fun!

      Hello, Rosewind!

      I remember you as well.  I believe we roleplayed a couple years back.  I think it was the Revolution RP.  That was my favorite one.  All the action, drama, and gritty dark atmosphere... so cool!  About Dusk, yeah, it was a couple years ago as well.  It was such a shame.  I'm glad to see someone familiar still here.  I have notice that the fandom has declined over the years but some have kept strong.  I cosplay with this Halo group based in the Midwest, The Misfits.  There group within us that actually made MLP themed Spartan armor.  You may have heard of them, Fire Team Harmony.  They are super talented cosplayers, look them up!  Anyways, yeah!  I would like to get back into RP'ing but I have no idea where to start again.  It's like having to learn how to ride a bick again. lol

      Howdy! You may not remember my name, but I can recall yours, hehe. I also remember BBS, he was definitely a fun guy. Shame we haven't seen him around in years. Anywho, since Open RP threads can be rather hard to come by, I suggest the best way to start again is by asking us to add you to our Roleplay Chat on Skype, and then take things from there. :)

  2. Hey all, its been nearly 2 years since I set hoof in Canterlot. Lots of things came up and I have been busy ever since. However, I am looking to possibly getting back into casual roleplay again with people, maybe see some old friends again. Drop me a line. ^_^

  3. The young humble martial artist blushes slightly from the flattery. He shyly rubs his neck with an embarrassed closed-eyed smil and then bows slightly. "You honor me greatly, good sir and I'm happy to meet you as well. I never realized how well known I was." Brew face softens to and his heart warms to know that some of his techniques have helped another so greatly. However, the young master became a little overwhelmed by the bombardment of questions from the stallion. "Well, sir... I'm not much older than yourself and I have been training ever since I can remember. If you would like, later on I could endulge your curiosity. I'm sure you are just as eager as I am to have the expedition underway." He then remembers Quilhart's comment about his pontential match with Fire Walker. "As for me and Ms.---- pardon me... Lt. Fire Walker, I sure that she will be quite the test for my abilities. I also would be honored for you to view such a specticle."
  4. Hearing Lt. Fire Walker address him, Brew turns to face her. Her words flatter him to the point of a slight blush. His modesty in such situations tend to get the best of him. [colour=#FF8C00]"Thank you kindly Lt. Fire Walker for such flattering words. I only try to do my best for my fellow ponies, my Princesses, and those who serve and protect us all. Just doing my best like my father."[/colour] Brew's eyes wander to the mare's hoof to then which a small hidden blade pops out as she makes a comment about her own abilities. Interesting little device but not his speed. Brew like to fight with no tricks or cheating. Just body and mind but he understands that war is vastly different. Fire Walker then comments that she and Brew should spar sometime and that she could learn much from him. Brew blushes slightly again. [colour=#FF8C00]"I would be honored, Lt. Fire Walker-san. I expect you to be a well skilled opponent. I may learn just as much from you---"[/colour] Brew says as he is interupted by a strange mare that arrived and plopped down with great exhaustion. As she interduced herself Brew could tell before she revealed such that she was from Germaney. He never been there but would like to one day. He glances at her and tilts his head in curiosity and concern. [colour=#FF8C00]"Are you ok miss?"[/colour]
  5. The shop is starting to get packed with his fellow adventure seekers. Before he could even speak a word to anypony, a brown earthpony, looks to be slightly younger than himself, stumbles through the door. It was slightly amusing however, something seemed familiar about this stallion. Brew sits quietly allowing him to make his introduction. The pony revealed himself as Quillhart, an author from his hometown of Filly. The name instantly kickstarted his memory. He has heard much about Quillhart from his fellow Fillydelphians but personally never met him. Before he could atempt to introduce himself again to the group, Quillhart begins to converse with the crimson mare, Fire Walker. Apparently they are already aquianted. Master Mustang stands and walks up to Aureate Compass and bows. [colour=#FF8C00]"It's a pleasure and honor to meet you, Aureate Compass."[/colour] he smiles. [colour=#FF8C00]"I am Brew Highkick, but most know me as Master Mustang." [/colour] Brew takes a quick look around the shop and then return his eyes back to Aureate.
  6. *A few days eariler....* [colour=#FF8C00]"Very well done today, everypony. Remember to practice today's techniques as I will looking for them during our next sparring session next class."[/colour] [colour=#800080]"Yes, sir!"[/colour] Master Mustang smiles and bows as his last martial arts class wraps up for the day. Young Brew throws on his casual kimono and makes his way to Fillydelphia. Another day of paradise in his home town. He takes a deep breath as the afternoon sun shines on his long black mane. It shines like polished onyx. As he walks the streets, making his way to the city center, Brew notices a lone poster. It hangs on the corner lamppost in front of his mother's shop and cafe'. His head tilts in curiosity as the young master reads on. Apparently this is an add for a trans-Equestian expedition. The mention of such a journey reminds Brew of when he left to find his traning as a young colt. However, he can't possibly leave his students again so soon. Last week he just got back from a 2-day vacation to Ponyville. Just as he turns away. He is startled by his mother standing before him. [colour=#FF8C00]"Gahhh!!!" [/colour]he jumps. [colour=#FF8C00] "Mother! Don't sneak up on me like that!" [/colour]he says in an embarassed tone of voice. [colour=#008000]"Sorry, Brew." [/colour][colour=#000000]Tea'na [/colour]giggles. The stunning green mare smiles and a curious look crosses her as she notices the flyer. [colour=#008000]"What's that?"[/colour][colour=#000000] she [/colour]asks. [colour=#FF8C00]"It's an ad for a Trans'Equestrian expedition. I'm guessing to map the main travel routes of Equestria. It seems that a one 'Aureate Compass' is looking for travel companions." [/colour][colour=#000000]he[/colour] replies. [colour=#008000]"Why that sounds lovely! You should go, sweetie."[/colour] [colour=#FF8C00]"I just returned from Ponyville not too long ago. I can't just go trotting off into the sunset again." [/colour][colour=#000000] H[/colour]e says with a look of disapointment. In truth he would like to go but he doesn't want to seem selfish. Tea'na looks at him and shakes her head. [colour=#008000]"Brew, you think too much of others sometimes. You're still young. Go out and have fun. You got plenty of help there otherwise you wouldn't have gone in the first place."[/colour] Brew stands corrected by his mother. Before he can say anything, Tea'na bops him on his muzzle with her hoof and hands him the flyer. [colour=#008000]"Go have fun, Brewsky. I'll have your father take care of the gym while you are absent. I think a suprise mentorship from the renowned Ironflank would be a great gift from Master Mustang, right?" [/colour]she winks. A blushing Brew laughs, rubs his neck, and then looks down to the flyer. He looks back to his mother. [colour=#FF8C00]"I suppose your right, mother."[/colour] he smiles as he goes to hug her. The young martial artist then turns away to start on his journey. [colour=#008000]"Have fun, Brewsky! Be a good boy for mama!"[/colour] she calls out her teasing goodbye to her son. Brew stops and blushes from embarassment. He looks back at her with a playful glare and then trots away with a smile. [colour=#FF8C00]"Better get packing..."[/colour] *Today - Canterlot* Dressed again in his casual kimono with two cloth sacks slung over his back, Master Mustang aimlessly wanders the streets of Canterlot searching for the address listed on the flyer. Eventually he stumbles upon this lone cartography shop. He peeks through the window to see a small group of poines coversing among one another, a couple stallions and a mare... a rather stunning one to be honest. She looks to be a military type, must be REA. Brew's father was hired by Shining Armor on a few occasions to help train several small platoons of soldiers. Her crimson coat and mane make him blush a little. Thank goodness she didn't notice him. Shaking his awkardness away. He calms his nerves and quietly enters the shop. He looks around at the group and bows polietly towards the center of the gathering. [colour=#FF8C00] "Greetings, is this the meeting place for the expedition I read about in the flyer?"[/colour] Brew asks as he holds up the slip of paper.
  7. I can find him a reason to be in Dodge Junction but I was thinking about being in the starting group now. What would you rather me do?
  8. I was told she was going to be absent for personal reasons, not full blown quit. That sux.
  9. I will use my OC, Master Mustang. As for his role in the group... I don't know what his role will be; maybe a peacekeeper? Perhaps he believes he is overdue for a vacation? As for him joining the group, I think he would have to be picked up. I like to think his martial arts gym (which has no name since its ran out of his home) is quite well known in the lower Heartland; perhaps his name reaches Aureate Compass' ears, and thus wishes to invite him on the journey (for reasons I'll leave up to you.) Sound good? Thoughts?
  10. No RP's really active right now... anyone looking for another RP'er?

Likes: Martial arts training, competing against stronger and stronger opponents, reading, tea, doing the right thing, and good company. Dislikes: Guns, arrogance, drama, those who take advantage of the weak. Personality: He's a very caring and passionate individual, putting his all into everything he does. He's not one to deny someone help when they ask and will always lend a hoof. Kaioken likes to fight for sport but he truely is passive at heart. He tries to avoid confrontation and violence if possible but will not hesitate defend himself or others if threatened. This pony has a massive appatite. He can eat as much as two stallion's his size. Other ponies find this rather... shocking. He has one querk though... Kaioken is awkward around beautiful mares resulting in more of a shy'er demeanor than that of his usual upbeat positive self. However child-like or happy he is, if a serious matter is at hoof, Kai will treat the situation with a fierce seriousness. Life and death are no laughing matters. Also, he may not be the brightest of stars in the skies above but the glow in his heart burns brighter than the sun. History: Kaioken grew up in the remains of the great metropolis of Las Pegasis. His family was one of the few Zebras alive in mainland Equestria. As such, he was picked on a lot as a young colt. This was until one day he stumbled upon an old library and found a whole section intact about martial arts. The collection was full of books, videos, holotapes, and audio tapes from legendary martial artists like Hooves Lee, Steel Eagal, and Rush St.Pier. The young zebra would spend hours in that library dragging home as much of this knowledge as he could. Soon after he retrieved all that literary gold, Kaioken found the remains of an old Prize Fighting boxing gym near downtown, best part was that is wasn’t irratiaded and thus still safe from the dangerous radioactive core of the city. There he spent days if not weeks on end on not stop training. After a winning several fights against those who picked on him, bullies began to leave him alone. However, they just shifted their targets. This infuriated him. As he watched them go to bully another. Never again… not to anyone. Kai then would stand against anyone who would harm those weaker than themselves. He took many beatings and dished out just as many for the sake of others, but they were worth it. They made him who he is today. Today, Kai wonders the wastes. He felt stuck at home… as if his skills were beginning to wither… He decided that there is more out there than just death and sand. There are more good people who need help and more bad people trying to take advantage of them… even more so… there is so much more to see and learn. So he wanders… learning… helping… protecting… and smiling.
