  1. Alright, I'll work on those and edit them into this application. EDIT: I went ahead and made some quick little changes that I hope will work better in the parameters of FiM. If there are any other things that I need to change, let me know.
  2. Alright, that's a pretty simple fix to be honest. Engineering is all about finding work arounds like that. I actually look forward to it
  3. Goodie! I shall hop into the rp as soon as time permits. I promise to put forth my utmost effort to contribute to the story.
  4. Well if it's not too late, I suppose I'll leave an application here. Hope you like her :3 Name: Whirley Gig Gender: Girl Race: Earth Pony Brief History: Lived with her family in a workshop on the cliff side opposite Canterlot. Her father being one of the royal engineers for Princess Celestia, and her grandfather who helped in building the Friendship Express, her family is well known among nobles. Tired of not being able to go to the city without being recognized, she and one of her older brothers (Thingamajig) moved to Ponyville. Looks: Slightly taller than most fillies, but not much. Her coat is a dull bronze color, and her mane/tail are colored gold and silver. Her mane is jagged and short, resembling a circular saw. Her tail however is long and groomed, and twirls to give the appearance of a drill. She wears a silver watch that her father made her, and her cutie mark is a single gear. She also has a pair of gold lense goggles, but she only wears them for working. Cutie Mark: As mentioned, a single gear. When she was young she had a music box that her grandfather had made for her to help her sleep. She became reliant on it to be able to get any rest, but when she reached the age of 7 she accidentally knocked it off of her night stand. It broke upon impact with the floor and she of course began crying. Her father heard her and rushed in to see what the problem was. Rather than sugar coating it and fixing the box by himself, he decided that it would be a good time to start introducing her to the family occupation. He takes the broken box to his workshop and brings Whirley with him, overseeing her as she fixes the broken music machine herself. Once the casing was put back on, she turned the crank and it bagan making music. Her eyes filled with wonder as her prized music box came to life, elated that she had brought it back to life herself. Her mark appeared as the soft hymn of the box lulled her to sleep on the work table. Her father carried her back to her bed room and placed the music box back on the night stand. She didn't notice her cutie mark until the next morning. Personality: Whirley isn't particularly shy. She can be outgoing, and will mostly just go along with whatever somepony else says. She prefers to avoid conflict, but when conflict arises she tends to fly off the handle. Being raised by mechanics, she isn't very girly, but she tries at times to be more feminine so as to not seem weird. Likes: Numbers, anything electronic, privacy Dislikes: Being the center of attention, rust, Random fact: Her first babysitters were Flim and Flam In case it isn't clear, my avatar is said character. Though as a younger pony she wouldn't be wearing her goggles
  5. Indeed I am. As I mentioned, I'm just a student atm, but I shall be an Engineer once I graduate.
  6. Roleplay Type: Mane RP Name: Whirley Gig Sex: Mare Age: Filly (Mane 6 age) Species: Earth Pony Eye Colour: Yellow Coat Colour: Bronze Mane/tail colour/style: Mane and tail are a mix of gold and silver. Her mane is short and looks similar to a circular saw. Her tail is longer and groomed to spiral like a drill Physique: Average, slightly taller than most fillies Cutie Mark: A single gear Origin/Residence: Born/raised in a workshop on a cliff face outside of Canterlot Occupation: Engineer/Inventor Motivation: Wants to fly (without magic) yet has no idea where to begin. Strives to be like her father. Flaws: Insecure about her lack of femininity. Also has a short temper in confrontation. Has a tendency to set her goals a little too high at times. Personality: Not particularly shy, though not particularly attention seeking. She can be very outgoing, and likes to avoid conflict. Not only does she dislike yelling, she knows that she has anger issues when confronted in a malicious way. Being raised by a family of mechanics, she isn't the girliest of all fillies, and tries to force herself to be feminine. Of course that slips every now and then and her true, tomboyish nature will peak through. Whirley Gig also has a tendency to go with whatever anypony else says rather than speaking her own mind. Ergo, if somepony brings up a controversial topic, she will most likely nod in empty agreement. History: Whirley Gig was born in the work shop of her parents on the outskirts of Canterlot. She was born into a rather well known family, as they have been contracted for high profile jobs all over Equestria. Her grandfather for instance helped in the construction of the Friendship Express. It's specualted that when she reaches Marehood, she will join her father as a traveling engineer. Her life overall hasn't been that different than any other pony, but her thirst for knowledge and research on her flying machine has driven her to wander to different towns for days at a time. She has also been known to set her goals a little too high, causing damage to property and funds of her family. This of course isn't due to a lack of ability to build, but more so on trying to achieve the impossible. The watch that she wears was made for her by her father. Parents: Her father, Turn Crank, runs a work shop on the outskirts of the city. He sells machine parts and devices to help in every day life, as well as overseeing many projects in Canterlot. Her mother, Coil Spark, maintains the machinery and was Whirley's only female figure. Her relationship with her parents is good, and she is especially close with her father. Cutie Mark Story:When Whirley Gig was young she had a music box that her grandfather had made for her to help her sleep. She became reliant on it to be able to get any rest, but when she reached the age to go to school, she accidentally knocked it off of her night stand. It broke upon impact with the floor and she of course began crying. Her father heard her and rushed in to see what the problem was. Rather than sugar coating it and fixing the box by himself, he decided that it would be a good time to start introducing her to the family occupation. He takes the broken box to his workshop and brings Whirley with him, overseeing her as she fixes the broken music machine herself. Once the casing was put back on, she turned the crank and it bagan making music. Her eyes filled with wonder as her prized music box came to life, elated that she had brought it back to life herself. Her mark appeared as the soft hymn of the box lulled her to sleep on the work table. Her father carried her back to her bed room and placed the music box back on the night stand. She didn't notice her cutie mark until the next morning. Likes: Machines, Mechanisms, Privacy, Numbers Dislikes: Standing out, Nature, Conflict, Water
  7. I agree that I am bored and would like some rp. I'm in if'n that's alright.
  8. So I'm going to be that guy that asks the obvious question out of my own irrational fear of being intrusive. Are applications still being accepted for this shindig?
  9. Thank you all for your welcomes! And yes I am in fact a boy. Also HOMESTUCK!
  10. About Myself: Student of Engineering, musician, gamer, etc etc How I found Canterlot.com: Google search for a pony rp How I became a fan of MLP:FiM: Older brother got me into it My favourite main cast pony/s: Fluttershy,Pinkamina Diane Pie Hey there everypony, as my username would suggest I am a dude, a man, and a guy. I've written a few things on FiMfiction under the same username, and I thought I'd try out the whole rp thing. I'm an experienced roleplayer, just not with ponies. I cosplay in the New England area, though so far only things from Homestuck and Scott Pilgrim. I'm thinking about an MLP cosplay in the near future. Anyhow, I look forward to getting to know any/all of you!
