  1. Moved thread. Fan threads like this are better suited for Pony Chatter than FiM Series, which is more for actual show discussion.

    On topic, I actually like Discord/Fluttershy. Other than that, I like her shipped with Applejack. She's far from my favorite pony, but I can't deny that she is quite cute.

  2. Music: 8/10 - the song has a great, memorable riff and a slick, cool sound that is hard to ignore. The lyrics are pretty mangled and forgettable, however. It's a good song, but hardly something I'd consider a favorite.

    Video: 10/10 - Yeah. Really revolutionary video that got pretty much everything right. Suits the song, tells a story, is evocative and memorable to the point where decades later it's still why people know the song.

    When it comes to great music videos though, I think we can all agree that this one is hard to top though:

  3. This was fun. I think mine turned out quite nicely.

    1) Noun, Abstract - devotion

    2) Adjective - blood-splattered

    3) Noun, plural, things - razors

    4) Unit of Time, Plural - femtoseconds

    5) Noun, plural, things - party hats

    6) Verb, future - kiss

    7) Noun, plural - changelings

    8) Noun, abstract - apathy

    9) Verb, future - cook

    10) Animal - dinosaur

    11) Noun, thing - sandwich

    12) Emoticon/Smilie - /人 ‿‿ ◕人\

    It all started when the cutie mark crusaders started arguing over a sandwich. This allowed a dinosaur-equis named Devotion to cook his bonds and spread apathy over Equestria. Celestia rallied the Mane 6, but the Changelings of Harmony were Missing!

    When they went on a mission to kiss them, Devotion separated the ponies with party hats and pitted each against themselves. The ponies were disunified for a few femtoseconds, but Celestia Sent Twilight dozens of razors to remind them of the blood-splattered adventures they'd shared. With relationships restored, they defeat Devotion and returned peace to Equestria.

    And thus opens season 4. /人 ‿‿ ◕人\

    (if this is how season 4 started, I'd be strangely satisfied. :D)

  4. RPs still seem to be moving at a fairly usual pace from my observations. As for other parts of the board, if things are a little slower I'd say it's probably just a matter of it being a busy part of the year for a lot of people coupled with new relevant content to discuss being rather limited at the moment. I would imagine that next month when the new episodes start, people will get a little more energized about ponies again which should generate more activity.

  5. If it's just the age, I'd say that's probably fine. Unless the character doesn't have a cutie mark, change in age isn't going to generally create issues for us. If it's from older colt to young stallion it's especially reasonable, as that change could have reasonably happened over the course of RP's progressing.

  6. Hmm, the "almost" in "almost identical" gives some pause as it implies there would be more changes which might need review. If it was just the age and nothing else, I'd say that's probably acceptable, but if there are things being changed or added it's probably better that we know.

  7. “I’m… I-I’m.....I can get a doctor! I’ll be back in a jiffy!”

    Derpy, unsurprisingly, rather than answering for what she had done, turned and fled like a big ol' coward. At least she seemed to recognize her guilt, speeding off to get a doctor. Lyra just huffed as she rushed off. Seriously, that silly mare really did push it too far sometimes.

    "Lyra- take the key and open up the storage shed marked 'emergency'. After the toast salad pfftttt....AFTER you've unlocked it, use our super special secret scroll code. There should be some emergency bonbons in a carrying tray. Might be enough to help- UGGH- for a while, Good luck,"

    The unicorn gave a small smile as her disoriented fillyfriend placed a kiss on her horn and gave her some instructions. Lyra gave a firm nod and a salute.

    "At once, my love!" she started stiffly before skipping in the direction from which she had come. "Just you wait. I'll be back quicker than something really quick!"

    With that, Lyra sped off. She wanted to do her best by her Bonnie. She knew exactly where the emergency bonbons were--she had accidentally snuck into the storage shed and eaten them once before. She could still recall how Bonnie had scolded her for that! It was the kind of mistake, that as tasty as it was, only needed to be made once. Because of that, there were currently perfectly good bonbons waiting in that shed for them. She just needed to retrieve them!

  8. What you put on your character log is entirely up to you. If you're not interested in using a character anymore, you're free to remove them from the log if you want or otherwise mark them as inactive.

    As for editing characters, however, we do insist you stick to procedures there. If you wish to make change a character in notable ways, please contact a moderator so that they might move the character back into the applications forum. Once there, an RP Helper will review the character as it is after the changes to see if everything is okay for the RP game selected.

  9. Roleplay Type: World of Equestria

    Name: Diamond Dazzle Tiara

    Sex: Female

    Age: Young filly

    Species: Earth pony

    Eye colour: Bright blue

    Coat: Her coat is a light purple color

    Mane/Tail: Her mane and tail are two-toned, white striped with violet. They are styled loosely into a gentle curl. She almost invariably is found with a wire tiara, similar in shape to her cutie mark atop her head.

    Physique: About average for a filly her age.

    Residence: Ponyville

    Occupation: Student

    Cutie Mark: Her cutie mark is a blue wire tiara with circular ends. It represents her domineering nature and concern for appearances.

    Prior to getting her cutie mark, if one would have asked her if she was concerned with getting it, she would have denied as much adamantly. In truth, not having her cutie mark left the young Diamond feeling quite anxious and distraught, especially once her best friend Silver Spoon acquired hers. To everyone at school she either played cool or offered the odd offhand snide comment when her blank flank was pointed out, but there was no denying that more than anything else she wanted it to appear and appear soon. The problem was that she had no idea where to even start.

    Diamond Tiara's parents tended to buy her pretty much whatever she wanted, but she was a fickle child; passionate about something one moment, but then done with it the next. As this was the case, she didn't really have many hobbies or interests to explore. At a loss on her own and unable to face her friends on the matter, she decided to go to her parents with her concerns. Understanding what she was facing and seeing how it troubled her, Diamond's parents did their very best to guide the filly toward a cutie mark, encouraging her toward a number of different hobbies and activities, but nothing stuck.

    One day, as her parents found themselves running distressingly low on viable, not lame suggestions, Diamond found herself wrought with frustration. In a pout, she went off and shut herself in her room to cry. Her parents tried their best to console her, but Diamond refused to show her face or listen. It wasn't until her parents offered to do whatever she wanted if she'd just be reasonable that she started to listen. To test them, Diamond Tiara decided to ask for something big and requested to be taken to the most expensive boutiques in Manehattan and allowed to buy whatever she pleased. Somewhat to her surprise, her parents agreed.

    The family soon took a vacation to Manehattan, and while there her parents agreed to buy for her anything she wanted from any of the boutiques there. Diamond spent hours in the shops, trying on all sorts of dresses and accessories, but, fickle as ever, nothing called out to her. Many of the things were lovely, but as the one thing she would be taking home with her to Ponyville, none of the things seemed like they would do. Just like in finding her calling and her cutie mark, it seemed as if nothing would stick and she was tempted to give up until she saw something out of the corner of her eye.

    It was a painted wire tiara with a few rounded semi-precious gemstones fixed to it. An inexpensive piece of jewelry, it sat in a display window of a small, out of the way lower end boutique. Diamond wasn't sure why, but it was what was she was looking for and she demanded her parents buy it for her, which they did gladly. A confidence swelled in Diamond Tiara as she put it on her head. She wasn't sure why, but she felt good, like she had control. It was in that moment that her cutie mark finally did appear.

    History: Diamond Tiara was born in Ponyville, daughter of local entrepreneurial tycoon Filthy Rich, owner of Rich's Barnyard Bargains, a chain of highly successful bulk retail shops. Due to her father's success, the family was quite well off and as such Diamond lived a fairly privileged life for a foal in Ponyville. In their efforts to do well for their daughter, her parents did on occasion spoil their daughter who did not shy away from making demands.

    As the filly grew she in turn became something of a bully and a snob. She was a child who enjoyed having things her way, and she was not quiet when it came to making this known. As such, most of the other foals kept their distance. Eventually she would find one good friend in Silver Spoon, but her often bratty and commanding attitude meant most of the other foals who got close only did because they felt threatened. This sentiment only increased when Diamond Tiara found her cutie mark. In the wake of hercute-ceañera, Diamond and Silver began to openly mock the remaining blank flanks in their class at school, something she continues to enjoy.

    Diamond Tiara goes to school in Ponyville where she is taught by Miss Cheerilee. A good student, she studies hard so as she can show up the other students and suck up to her teacher. Perhaps because of this, she was chosen at one point to be editor-in-chief of the school paper, the Foal Free Press, a position she enjoyed fervently until her editorial decisions lead to controversy and Cheerilee ultimately concluded she had allowed too much power to a new editor and demoted her to printing press. Unsatisfied with this turn of events, Diamond Tiara quit the paper shortly after this.

    Character Summary: Diamond Tiara is a very particular foal. She has a very strong, assertive personality. She is quite bold and opinionated for her age and never afraid to take charge or speak her mind. She also has a lot of fervent passion for what she does; when she sets herself to a task, she feels compelled to put her very all into and do it well. She is willful and relatively clever when she puts her mind to it.

    She is, however, very much self-absorbed. She is vain and often controlling or manipulative. She is exceedingly stubborn and detests not getting her way, and can get temperamental or even form grudges when she doesn't. She is a relatively callous filly, not so concerned with the feelings of others but prone to more than occasional jealousy. Moreover, she is very fickle; while she puts a lot of passion behind the things she does do, she can just as easily get bored of them and move on at a moment's notice, especially if it seems poised not to go her way or be worth her time. She is also, on occasion, somewhat short sighted.

    As she enjoys feeling superior to others, she is known to tease others or make trouble for them and amuses herself by laughing at the results with Silver Spoon. Diamond Tiara doesn't have too many hobbies in addition to her mischief, as she's not prone to stay with anything very long. She has some interest in fashion and for shopping for nice things, but actually puts more of her free time at home toward studying than anything else.

    In terms of important relationships, Diamond Tiara values her best friend Silver Spoon more than she'd likely admit. Though at first considering her something of a follower, she is now thankful to have her along for her mischief, as none of it would be very much fun without her. When it comes to her other classmates, the Cutie Mark Crusaders, her behavior toward them does not stem from hatred or spite as much as a need to express her dominance and how she herself is beyond that hard part in her life. She does think some of the stuff they do is genuinely lame though, but on occasion a small and always silent part of her thinks it looks fun. Meanwhile, with her teacher, Diamond tries to leave good impressions as much as she is able and toward her father she has nothing but the deepest pride, even when he forces her to do something she perceives as lame.

  10. Good question. Looking down our list of roleplay locations, I would say the following would probably be the biggest hotbeds of airship activity in Greater Equestria:

    Beakbreak City - probably our most directly airship driven location; not a super nice place to live though.

    Stalliongrad - a large, diverse and modern city with a fair amount of focus on airships.

    Manehattan - Equestria's biggest economic center. would definitely have airships.

    Canterlot - it's the capital and we see an airship leave it in canon, so it could work too.

    Other towns and cities might have some minor airship presence too, of course, so if you find a location that better suits your character, don't be afraid to use that instead. ;)

  11. Well, we're currently still working on up to date species lore for WoE. As it stands right now, there isn't much I can point you toward in regards to deer as they should appear in the game. That said, I would say you are safe to have a deer character do most any of the same things an earth pony character can. The only key differences that occur to me, aside from the obvious physical ones, are that deer would likely be more commonly seen in wooded areas (peaceful ones; not Everfree) as opposed to pony towns and cities.

    I wish I could tell you more, and full lore write ups for deer and other species are coming, but for now I would suggest just creating the character. If you do anything that doesn't work with our game lore, an RP Helper should let you know. :)
