Spooky adventures? Sounds cool. Mind if I join in with Dawn Sunrise? And ideas?...Hmm, perhaps they all somehow end up somewhere and somepony is doing something to scare them all. Seriously though, they all end up, as someone already mentioned, in the Everfree or a "haunted" mansion and have to find a way out or something of the like. But what the children don't know is that their all being pranked by somepony. Somepony who really enjoys hearing the terrified screams of children!! Or, they claim they're not scared of anything or something, and in an attempt to prove their mettle, they decide to spend a night in a supposedly haunted house. Only to be locked inside with what ever spooky terrors dwell within the building. Any of these sound good?

I believe this question should have been posted in the Questions and Suggestions Section. As for your question, you should contact a moderator and they should happily move your character from the accepted app section back into the Character Applications area. Where you can then update it and have it reevaluated.

Sounds awesome. I'd love to be a part of this. But, I'm in the same boat as Derpyy and TemplarFrost. However, getting a character I've worked so long on shouldn't take too long to get an approval stamp. Or at least, I sure hope so.

Oh no no no!! AFB (if I may call you that), you're fine. When I was refering to people not posting, I meant people who haven't posted for extended periods of time and they really should because another character was interacting with them. Speaking of which, I should get to posting now.

Ok, so here's my app for Poof. (obviously) Any and all feedback from anyone is always welcome!! EDIT Honestly, I forget I had app for this character already. However, I believe starswirlthebearded is the one who informed that it was closed down due to inactivity. So I'm unsure whether or not I should have this taken down and replaced to the old app I made. But, I think that would be silly because it would look excatly like this when I'm through editing it. Does anyone know what I should do? Well, besides overreact to this. Oh, and on another note, there are images I shall be uploading into this app, but as you can see, I haven't yet put them up.

Roleplay Type: World of Equestria RP Name: Hocus Pocus, however, he occasionally prefers to be called by his stage name, Shzaam. Sex: Male Age: Older Colt Species: Unicorn Eye colour: Dark lime green Coat: Lavender Mane/Tail: His medium length mane and tail share the same colour of lime green. His mane is usually kept up in this weird bun thingy (hard to explain, so here's a pic: ) though he tends to change it often. Usually just letting it fall naturally or putting it up in a ponytail. Physique: He has a feminine body, rivaling that of even some mares and with a voice to match. Other than that, he is a healthy and normal weight. Residence: His home lies within lower Manehatten however, he is often traveling and seldom stays home very long. Occupation: Traveling Show Pony Cutie Mark: A cloud matching his coat colour, outlined with dark purple with a dark purple question mark in the center. Resembling the art of general show magic (illusions, mystery, etc) . Also for his mind set, as he can tend to keep his head in the clouds and his ideas tend to be strange. However, this is a trait that has decreased slightly since first obtaining his cutiemark. CutieMark Story When Shzaam was still a fairly young colt, his parents took him to Las Pegasus as there was a magic and performance festival going on. They had been invited to perform in one of the actual establishments, as their sizable traveling show had attracted raving reviews via word of mouth last year, not to mention plenty of attention. Shzaam found it funny how excited he was to see an act he'd seen his folks go over a million times before, but sitting in that velvety seat, he knew it'd be more exciting than ever. The crowd was big! At least, larger than what he was used to seeing. He awaited eagerly for the curtains to draw. Sure enough, after awhile they did!! His father came out, devilishly handsome and mysterious as always. He greeted the audience, already drawing in applause. The first part of his act went as usual, Shzaam feeling proud of his father. Soon enough, the time came for his lovely assistant, Shzaam's mother , to come out for the second half of the act. Little did he know that security had mistaken her for a backstage invader, and she was having troubles even re-entering! The auditorium grew so quite after he called for the assistant, who hadn't made her way to the stage, that the sipping of a cider could be heard, suspenseful at first but later awkward. Shzaam and his father locked eyes for a moment. He could feel the heart-wrenching disappointment, but had no idea of what to do. "Shzaam! There you are, my silly assistant! What are you doing down there?" His father called publiclly over the mic, gesturing for his son to come up. Shzaam's heart sank, nervous instantaneously rushing to his head. He sat still as a statue. "Get your flank up here, dont be shy! Isn't she precious every pony? Give her some encouragement!" Whistles and applause seemed louder than Shzaam's own thoughts as he climbed up on stage, giving a shy half-smile and meager wave. He looked the part and knew the routine well, but looking at everypony's faces shattered his confidence in a heartbeat. Plus, he was supposed to be a mare!! Many ponies mistook him for one anyways, seeing as he has quite the figure, but he was far from ready to play the part of one on stage!! He'd taken his mother's place as his father's assistant before just for fun and practice, but had never actually performed before!! Not in front of other ponies!! Not at a small show and certainly never at something this big, this important!!! His father was swift and smooth, guiding the act as usual. Shzaam got into the flow of things much quicker than he expected, and found himself to be having the time of his life up there!!! The roaring crowd, the sounds of everyponys hoofs colliding in joy, the flowers that were thrown.. He didn't even feel stage fright at all by the end of the performance! Taking a bow alongside his father, a mark appeared at the side of his flank for every pony to see. History: As foal and in his early colt-hood, Shzaam often lived with his aunt and uncle, Chroma Canvas and White Noise, for a number of years. This being as his own parents couldn't find the time to manage their, at the moment, small caravan and take proper care of their child. Though the boy was more than ok with this, as he got to spend a lot of time with his cousins Bass Drop and Fresco!! This trio of unicorns were inseparable!! Always having tons of fun. Sure enough, there were times when they would fight, but it was nothing too serious to destroy the bonds of friendship they've made. And when Shzaam wasn't goofing around with his cousins, he could normally be found attempting feeble show magic. Hoping that when he's older he'd be able to travel with his parents. Now, as for adult supervision, Poof's aunt did most of that. As White Noise's job doesn't allow him much free time. In fact, the only time the three kids got to see him was on his days off and occasionally at family dinners. And Chroma's occupation allowed her to be stationed at home, allowing her to watch over her kin. Now, Shzaam was able to see his parents, just not very often. So he spent a great deal of time in Manehatten, even going to school there. Eventually, his parents thought it was time for him to join the family business. This idea appealed highly to him too, he was finally able to join his parents on their quest to share their skills with everypony across Equestria!! So from then on he lived with, the now much, much larger, showpony caravan consisting of his parents, family, and close friends. And filled with ponies with various skill sets. Such as elemental magic or tricks and spells. "Sorcery" and "witchcraft". Actors and singers. Even lion tamers!!! Just about every form of Equestrian performing art. However, still being fairly to the group, Shzaam just wasn't the performing type. He was a well trained magician's apprentice at the time, as he is a fast learner, and even though many ponies within the caravan believed him to be ready to perform, he refused. The colt had a major dose of stage fright that nopony knew about until he just about cried when first put up on a stage to perform in front of a few friends. The sheer thought of performing infront of somepony, let alone an entire crowd, was enough to occasionally send the child into shock. Where he would either faint or sputter complete nonsense until he could be calmed. (Insert cutie mark story here) However, since his first performance and obtaining his cutie mark, he has no problem performing in front of crowds. Nowadays, Shzaam is almost always performing. Whether it be a magic act or a random act of kindness. Character Summary: Family Shzaam is a cousin to siblings Bass Drop and Fresco. Personality Shzaam is very kind, regarding himself to be simply splendid. He's not one to take things very seriously, taking many situations lightly as if they were everyday affairs. Though he still thinks ahead and prepares. Solving problems in a slightly comical, yet useful, way. Also, when confronted by groups of ponies, he can tend to be very social. Always trying to do his very best to meet and greet everyone. And he's very playful, occasionally attempting to confuse ponies. Flaws He can act a little strange at times. Tending to drift off into his own little world and not even listen to himself talk. But still talking, nonetheless. Usually he talks about what ever he's currently thinking about or rambling on about unlikely situations and how to overcome them. Also, he is susceptible to go into shock when ever he's completely unprepared for something. In which case he most likely faint or start talking quickly and randomly while vaguely staying on topic. Pets Squiggles: Squiggles is a bird that sends messages to ponies that are really far away. Only because it's really hard to talk to somepony when you're constantly moving across Equestria. Shzaam uses this bird to keep in contact with his family in Manehatten and his friends who are inconveniently scattered across Equestria due to him becoming friends with just about everypony he meets.

Good for you!! Procrastination is a virtue!! For good things come to those who wait!! Plus, haste makes waste, so why rush!? Jk, get to it, it's dying lol

Is this thread officially dead? Or have people just been too "busy" to post?

<<"Okay, Dawn! We can go now.">> The filly's eyes lit up as Violet finally confirmed it was time to leave. [colour=#F62817]<<"Yay!!">>[/colour] Dawn jumped with glee, bounding around the group as they headed towards what they thought was the way to the cabins. The group marched on through the dank, dark forest. Passing many, MANY trees. And more trees, and even more trees? Then a cute little bunch of flowers, followed by much, MUCH more trees! Now, Dawn was no navigator, but she was sure they should've reached the cabins sooner than this. They've been walking for what she thought to be FOREVER!! [colour=#F62817]<<"Umm, hey guys? Does anypony know where we are?">>[/colour]

Wait...Gilda's a pony!? And also, how could you rate The Great and Powerful Trixie lower than Twilight Sparkle?

Tape? What tape? Why was I not aware of this!? Oh what? Yeah sure!! I'll send you what I have later today. Also, I kind of forgot about Fresco..

I'm actually sort of happy for the slow pace. I can spend much, much more time for an app for Poof. I started months ago on him and never finished!! Cutie Mark story is holding me back...

((I sense a disturbance in the activity of this thread...)) [colour=#006400]<<"Hey there! I'm Slick! Slick Pelt... you lost little filly? I can help you get home with these two if you want!">>[/colour] [colour=#F62817]<<"Thank you, but, uhh, no...">>[/colour] -she mumbled under her breath. Dawn backed away slightly from the hyper, gray coated colt who stood before her. [colour=#006400]<<"What's your name?">>[/colour] [colour=#F62817]<<"I-, I'm Dawn. And no, I'm not lost. I'm just waiting to head back to cabins with my friend, Violet.">>[/colour] She pointed to Violet with a hoof. [colour=#F62817]<<"In fact, we were just leaving, weren't we Vi? Sorry Slick, maybe some other time?">>[/colour] Dawn, for what seemed to be the hundredth time, attempted to push Violet towards the campsite.

(( I hope no one is getting mad over Pocket's drunken rage. It's nothing but harmless fun!! "Then the short pony who came out of Shade's bags. [colour=#800080]"Oh someone save me I'm so small and Can't do anything."[/colour]" I'll destroy you!!)) "<<Dawn! Are you alright? Did you hurt?>>" Dawn found herself being lifted to her hooves. "<<Oh...we left you there...please don't be angry, we were just so excited about going to the forest, we didn't notice that you wasn't there>>" [colour=#FF0000]"<<Y- yes, I'm fine. A bit frightened, yes, but I'm ok. Thank you Violet.>>"[/colour] She stood there, trembling slightly. The forest? Are these ponies crazy? Why in Equestria would they ever want to go there, let alone, be excited by it? Older ponies never make any sense... "<<It's so late yet, so I think...I will go back to the cabins and Dawn, well, you should go with me. Also, I don't think that the others will stay so long. Knight? Would you like to come with us or you will stay for a while.>>" [colour=#FF0000]"<<What are we waiting for!?>>"[/colour] Dawn bounced up and smiled. A choice of staying in the forest or heading back to the cabins? No contest!! The filly was ready to get the hay out of there!! She attempted nudging, tugging, pulling, and pushing Violet in the direction that she believed to be the exit. Though her efforts were futile, as Violet seemed not to budge, waiting for a response from the colt who appeared to be named Knight. Growing frustrated, Dawn spoke up. [colour=#FF0000]"<<He'd love to come with us, Vi. Now let's goooo!...>>"[/colour]

((Kinda forgot about this and my posting has become slightly limited sorry!! )) Dawn, who had unknowingly been in the process of being Left Behind, stood in the cabin, watching as the older fillies made their way out of a window. And once everypony had left, she tried to follow suit. Unfortunatly, the littler pony was too small to reach the window. Leaving her in a bit of a pickle... She stared at the window, devising an escape plan. Though turning her head, she noticed a perfectly functional door... [colour=#F62817]<<"Oh, duhh...">>[/colour] She exited the structure and circled around to where the window was. But upon her arrival, she found that everypony was headed into the forest. Dawn, scared out her wits, took a few steps in the opposite direction from the tree filled place that may or may not be filled with potentially dangerous creatures. She continued to shy away from the forest until a flower gently brushed against her flank. Sending the filly into a panic and dashing straight into the forest, hoping that she would run into a bigger pony that could protect her. [colour=#F62817]<<"Somepony save meeee!!">>[/colour] And through the brush, somewhere a bit farther ahead, music could be heard. Along with the sounds of splashing water and other ponies!! Dawn beamed and tried to run faster. However this only resulted in her tripping on her own hooves and rolling into somepony (Violet) who appeared to be leaving.

<<"Is this yours?">> [colour=#F62817]"Well, -"[/colour] <<"It's so beautiful...I wish it would be mine.">> [colour=#F62817]"It's not-"[/colour] <<"Would you be nice, and take care of it?">> [colour=#F62817]"Ok, but it's-!!"[/colour] -Dawn fumbled as Violet practically shoved the pearl in her hooves. <<"I need to do something...">> [colour=#F62817]"This conversation is feeling very one sided..."[/colour] -she spoke as Violet exited the cabin. The filly let out a sigh of frustration and looked at the pearl. She placed the jewel in her tail as a substitute for the lack of a saddle bag. (I hate how ponies don't have pockets sometimes!!) Dawn was heading over to a bed (any bed not taken?) to retire. She hadn't a reason to stay up, plus it was quite dark outside, so sleep seemed reasonable. She had only begun to climb up the bed when Shade burst in the room. [colour=#800080]<<"Okay, okay, so I'm sorry but Dawn, Bluemoon, I really gotta tell you what just happened!! And you too cuz you're here!!">>[/colour] Dawn groaned silently and retreated from the bed, now walking over to Shade. [colour=#F62817]"What is it, Shade?"[/colour] The older pony burst into giggle fit. Never getting a chance to tell everypony what had her so giddy. But slowly regaining her composure, she resumed. [colour=#800080]"Okay, okay. So, what happened was.."[/colour] Once more, Shade had stopped her story short. This time interrupted by the sudden appearance of Miss Licorice. And Dawn, who wasn't supposed to be seen, quickly hid in Shade's tail, having not many more options.

Kid, you're borderline tough, so go on in. How tough am I? I posted in a dead thread. -Yea so? It's been dead for years!! AND I REVIVED IT!!!!

((is anyone else thinking about seabears now? Srsly, I'm just waiting for a bear to come charging through the clearing and attacking everypony whose not in a circle ))

Dear Princess Celestia, Today I learned that when you go on the Internet to do one thing, you should do that one thing before anything else. Because you will forget, and nothing productive will happen all day. Your kindest subject, ~SilverWisp

Question!! Who exactly is getting left behind at RedRock? I cast my vote for who ever has started a love triangle, because that's always fun!! Also, for my OC only because she's a natural leader and maybe she could get her cutie mark? You don't want her to stay a blank flank, would you? Idk, but seriously, who are we going to ditch accidentally leave behind?

((The feels...This strangely makes me smile. Also, I literally had no idea what to say, so behold one of my terrible, poorly thought out posts )) <<"Excuse me?">> The little filly angled her head to face the pony who had just entered. <<"Is everything alright? Your mane is a bit...sooty? I didn't see you on the bus...Who are you?">> Dawn turned her body to completely face to face the older filly. [colour=#F62817]"Oh, I'm Dawn! It's a pleasure to meet you. Oh, and the reason you didn't see me earlier was because I was hiding. See, I'm actually not supposed to be here with you older ponies. I kind of snuck here with the help of my friend, Shade.[/colour] She smiled nervously at Violet [colour=#F62817]"Oh! I didn't learn your na-"[/colour] THUMP From one of the beds, the blue box fell to the floor, bursting open and revealing a pearl that rolled over to Violet.

How is one born with a rainbow coloured mane? Is it a genetic mutation? Or just by pure luck, chance, and awesomeness?

^...Watch out, we got a bad flank over here. Go get over to Super-MEGA Weenie Hut Jr's How tough am I? How tough am I!? I put fish and eggs in a blender and drank it. Without going to the hospital -Yea, so? I'm allergic to fish AND eggs.
