Starbuster

Silver! You can join my ship if you'd like

Starbuster eyed herself in the mirror and ran her eyes over herself as she inspected her costume.[colour=#4b0082] "I think this is quite possibly the best costume I've had."[/colour] She said to herself, turning around. Her costume was that of a vampony. Her wings were covered in silky cloth that was coloured the same as her own coat, and had been molded to look like bat wings that she could fully fold up at her side. She wore a set of contacts that changed the shape of her pupils, making them snakelike in appearance and red in colour. Her hooves had fake claws on them, and a black cape draped across her shoulders. Sharp, pointed teeth flashed when she smiled, giving her a slight malicious look. She smiled at how she looked, turned around, grabbed her candy bucket, and stepped outside. Looking around, she saw various groups of ponies walking around to different cloud houses.[colour=#4b0082] Seems like the fun's already begun here. [/colour]She thought to herself as she looked at various pegasi darting to and fro with their costumes, good and bad. She decided that this year she would hit up Ponyville, seeing as how she'd visited most of the cities and towns during Nightmare Night, but she'd had yet to visit Ponyville. Plus, they supposedly had some awesome Nightmare Night attractions this year too. Lifting off with her muscled wings, she flew away from the Observatory that she lived in towards Ponyville. Lucky for her that it wasn't far away, and she'd been there hundreds of times directing lost ponies back home and to taverns. Soaring through the sky, she looked down on Ponyville, seeing its various games and stalls set up. She descended rapidly, tucking her wings in as she dove towards the town. At the last second, she shot her wings out, catching the wind and turning her descent into a graceful landing. Looking around, she saw many things to do, and many groups of ponies trotting about. She thought to herself: [colour=#4b0082]I should have come with a group, it's more fun that way.[/colour] [colour=#4b0082]"Hm... Well, may as well get started!" [/colour]She said to herself, Trotting towards a nearby candied apple stand.

And my first post is up. I took advantage of fireraven posting about two mares in the bar. Why not? xD I'm sure this will be a fun RP. Thanks for the acceptance Stormy

(Alright guys, i'm a lot less busy now, and have more time for some fun RP's. however, i've decided to change my app, mostly because i had an idea in mind for some characters, but my previous app didn't quite cut it. So here's my newer app. I'm sure you'll notice some familiar elements from my previous app. [sorry for the lengthyness, apping 2 characters is a bit more detailed. xD]) Name: Stardust Shine Gender: Female Age: Young. Around 22 in human years. Species: Pegasi Looks: Lean muscle, shrouded in a deep cerulean coat. Her dark orchid and navy blue tail and mane are braided around a spiked cord, ending with silvery ribbons. She has a hard, confident stance, fit for leadership, and piercing teal eyes that some swear stare into your soul. A prominent scar has left its mark crossing her left eye, leaving her skin white where it was once wounded. Personality: A born leader, she was always worked hard by her father, helping him build his greatest achievement, the Crystalline Phoenix, a ship made almost completely of gems from a deceased dragon cave. Being worked hard as a younger mare, she developed a strong sense of discipline. She takes a great deal of pride in her achievements, and in turn, has a great deal of respect for those who have achieved great things. She respects everyone, unless they do not deserve her respect. She can be nice when she needs to be, and she can be comedic, and she usually only is if the situation permits. Loyal to her crew, she eats with them as an equal, rather than a superior. She often exchanges stories of her achievements with her crewmates, and even sleeps in the hold with the rest of them, rather than her private chamber. Quick witted and strong, she often engages in mind challenges and games, the more difficult, the better. She has a preference for mares, but occasionally hooks up with a stallion. Cutie Mark: Twin bolts of lightning cross her flank, acquired after building her fifth, and largest arclight thunder cannon, which she was building for her own ship, the Diamondback. Random Fact: When she was a younger mare, she was trained to have more endurance and resilience, making her as strong as a tough earth pony and making her need only 2 hours of sleep to be at her best. Ship: The Diamondback (Will be posted when seen in RP) Rank: Co-Captain Weapons/Fighting Style: Her weapon is a custom fit set of wing blades adorned with gems that control her ship. Only the wearer of the blades can move her ship, and they cannot be dismantled. She is adept at her own close combat style of fighting, often training against multiple ponies at the same time, and almost always winning. She can fight up to 5 ponies simultaneously, and is masterful at disarming her opponents. Lifelong Dream/General Goal: To reunite with her father and take revenge on the pirates who kidnapped him and his ship. History: Her father was a legendary airship builder, and thus was very affluent, granting the funds needed for them to build more and more airships. He had built thousands of airships, including his own masterpiece, the Crystalline Phoenix. However, in the final stage of development, a group of pirates came and kidnapped him, stealing his airship, the Crystalline Phoenix, while it was still in development. Upset over the loss of her father, she was outraged, and let her rage fuel her passion for building and inventing things. With help from a group of very close friends, and her own sister, she took the engine designed for the Crystalline Phoenix, and built her own ship, the Diamondback, around it. With her airship, she took to the skies in search of her father. These close friends of hers became her crew, and they recruited all over the eastern lands, growing their crew to higher numbers. Her crew, now roughly in the high thirties, is intent on treasure and adventure, and has mastered the use of the ship that they now call their home. Travelling around with her companions, new and old, the main thing on her mind is revenge. Name: Moondust Shine Gender: Female Age: Young, around 22 in human years. Species: Pegasi Looks: Identical to her twin sister Stardust, she is deep cerulean in colour with her two-toned dark orchid and navy mane and tail. However, she prefers the less rugged and more enchanting look of eastern pegasi, preferring to dress in sleek, slim attire that molds to her body, making her curvy feminine features more apparent. She's not as muscular as her twin, having not been worked as her sister was. She has an identical scar crossing her right eye, giving her a dangerously seductive look. Her emerald green eyes burn with intensity, leading to a more alluring and drawing look. Personality: Her silver tongue often gets her exactly what she wants, and often times more than she needed. However, occasionally she digs herself into a pit that her twin often is called on to pull her out of. Usually by violence. She is a very mysterious character, and often uses her looks and her charm to get information. She values feminine aesthetics, often decorating the Diamondback, making it less than fearsome. At one point, she had decided all of the cannons needed to be pink, and so pink they were. Her moods are a mystery, often times she will be persuading someone into getting what she wants, to turning very violent and forcing it from them. (Often times pinning them with a knife to their throat) She's not afraid of blackmail, and is typically the political figurehead for the Diamondback, making her more of the negotiator than her disciplined sister. She's more of the jolly type, mostly playing harmless pranks on the crew members and her sister. She's the motivator of the ship, often bringing optimism when times are tough, and strengthens morale to the crew when the ship is under attack. One could say she is the Diamondback's cheerleader. She's interested in both mares and stallions, though she has preference for stallions. Cutie Mark: Twin dice, both on the six side of it. She got her cutie mark after her encounter with the pirates, who allowed her and her sister to go free in return for them paying ransom for their father. Random Fact: She once talked an entire ship of pirates off of their own ship, looted their entire ship, thanked them for their business, and proceeded to fly off with all of their loot. Later they ran into these same pirates and her sister sunk their airship with a blast from a cannon. They wanted their stuff back. Ship: The Diamondback (Will be posted when seen in RP) Rank: Co-Captain Weapons/Fighting Style: More of a stealthy fighting style, she fights with blades attached to her hooves that slide out when she needs them. She has twin scoped clockwork pistols that she uses when the fighting is from afar, and often drops foes with a single shot, usually nonlethal. She prefers negotiation and conversation, because she holds the edge in a conversation. Lifelong Dream/General Goal: To get her father back from those nasty pirate kidnappers. History: More of her daddy's little girl, Moondust was always getting herself into trouble with other colts and fillies at a younger age. She didn't ever like stealing, so she talked other ponies into giving her things, which made it morally right to her. She was upset over the kidnapping of her father, and set about immediately recruiting ponies to help Stardust build her ship, the Diamondback. She did none of the building herself, but was constantly recruiting ponies to help build it, telling them that they could become a part of the crew. To this day, she's talking her way through, inside, outside, and around things, constantly getting exactly what she wants.

Wow! Talk about art! do you do requests by any chance? Your drawing style is adorable. :3 Welcome to Canterlot!

They saw the damage done to the fields below on the way to Ponyville, countless cracks and scars defaced the once beautiful countryside. Starbuster remembered just looking at it a few hours ago, the morning dew beautiful on the multicoloured canvas of grass far below. Now the canvas had been torn, and she was furious. The two ponies stopped, and Starbuster took the mare from Shadow. [colour=#4b0082]"Don't you worry, these babies are powerful from years of flying in dense snow."[/colour] she reassured Shadow as she took off carrying the mare. They arrived in Ponyville a short while later, and most of the streets were deserted. Dropping to the ground, she led Shadow through the town to her sister's house. She knocked, but nopony was there. She opened the door and went inside, laying the mare on the couch nearby. Looking around, she did a quick search of the house, but her sister wasn't there. Moondust always told her that she could come over whenever she wanted to, and that was precisely what she did. She sat on a recliner across from the mare, and looked at Shadow nearby. [colour=#4b0082]"You can go if you need to. I think we'll be safe here."[/colour] She trotted over to a cabinet nearby, and rummaged around for a bit. She pulled out an old guardsman's sword that used to belong to Switch. Moondust's husband, Switch, acquired medical leave after an accident left him handicapped. Seeing as how both Moondust and Switch were pegasi, they were probably safe up in Cloudsdale. She nodded at Shadow, and sat back in the chair, patiently awaiting either the awakening of the mare or the return of Shadow and Cross, sword across her lap.

Starbuster sat, thinking about what he said. There seemed to be uncertainty in his voice. She looked at the mare. [colour=#4b0082]"Oh! We can't go to my place... Unicorns can't walk on clouds."[/colour] She said, facehoofing herself.[colour=#4b0082] "We can either wait here or go to Ponyville. On one hoof, we can wait here. It's closer to where he is and we'll be together quicker, however, so are those weird Time Lord things, and there's a possibility of them finding us. On the other hoof, we can go to Ponyville. We'd be safer from the Time Lord things, but we'd be farther away from Cross and our reunion would take longer, AND i'd have to carry this mysterious mare the whole way there that we don't even know anything about."[/colour] She said, looking back at the unconscious mare again. [colour=#4b0082]"At least she's not heavy. I've had no trouble so far, so I'll be able to make the trip if you think we should go. Should we?"[/colour] She said, looking back to Shadow.

Starbuster was a bit puzzled. [colour=#4b0082]"I don't recognize her... And that's saying something, seeing as how I know just about everypony. I don't know what's so important about her, but apparently the Captain thinks she's important, so we're getting her out of here. I'm sure we'll get some answers when she wakes up. As for right now, we need to get out of here. Cross will meet up with us outside the city. Meeting up at my place isn't a bad idea for the time being..." [/colour]She looked off into the distance, seeing Cloudsdale still hanging in the sky. [colour=#4b0082]"It seems as if it hasn't been effected yet. I just hope it stays like that..."[/colour] She said, trailing off. They got to the front door and stepped out into the courtyard. Most of the ponies were gone, and they had no problem reaching the Eastern gate. Going out the gate, she turned and trotted into the thick forest that touched the walls of the once-great city. She brought Shadow and the mare to a grove she used when she traveled to the city. Setting down the mare gently, she sat on a stump nearby. [colour=#4b0082]"So, should we wait for Cross here or at my house?"[/colour] She asked Shadow.

[colour=#4b0082]"You're right. Not a good idea."[/colour] Starbuster said, skidding to a stop, almost dropping the unconscious mare she was carrying. [colour=#4b0082]"Shadow! Stop that! You don't want to lose your head poking it in the doorway."[/colour] She said, yanking Shadow back into the hallway.[colour=#4b0082] "We should probably take the hallway east of this. It runs parallel to the throne room and will lead out the front gateway."[/colour] She said, looking at Shadow.[colour=#4b0082] "We need to make sure she's safe anyways, so that way would be much easier for us."[/colour] She said to him, starting a trot down the hallway.

Which one, Labyrinth? Because i've been waiting for a while for you to post there xD I think i'll be posting in all of the ones i'm already in tonight. I've almost finished one and then i'll be at my limit for a while.

Starbuster booked it down the hallway with Shadow, dodging various falling debris. Weaving in and out of numerous hallways, she made sure nopony was left in the castle as she made her way towards the infirmary. When they got there, the mare was alone, as all the other ponies had been evacuated.[colour=#4b0082] "These nurses just left her here?!"[/colour] Starbuster said, outraged. [colour=#4b0082]"You got my back, right?"[/colour] She said, turning to Shadow. Slinging the unconscious mare over her back, she went out of the infirmary, Shadow hot on her tail. [colour=#4b0082]"Cmon, we gotta get out of here!"[/colour] She said to him, running down the northern hallway towards the throne room.

Actually guys, something came up, so i don't know that i can take a new RP right now. Sorry. I may join you guys later in story though, if that's alright. I will be watching the thread though, so make sure you guys have a good story. Sorry guys.

Valence, Her and her father BUILT the ship, using the funds from years of her father building legendary ships. If not for that, the ship wouldn't exist in the first place.

Definitely should have described the ship better. I never described how it looked. Just what it was made of. The exterior is going to be wooden, of course. Gotta make sure those dirty pirate kidnappers don't know it's me.

Biased opinion or not, It's a good concern. As it says in the app however, there are catalysts being made for the unicorns aboard. Perhaps if you get your hands on one of those... That's what you think NOW. but you'll just love when those pretty little bracelets of yours stop working within the ten feet and you fall to your death. besides that, there's this nice little quote: "Can't we all just get along?" xD

Name: Moondust Starlight Gender: Female Age: Young to Middle age. around 24 in human years. Species: Pegasi Looks: Lean muscle, shrouded in a deep indigo coat. A deep purple mane and tail, which are both braided, and end with a silvery ribbon. She has a very confident stance, and her deep green eyes have a piercing gaze. A scar is prominent crossing her left eye, turning her scarred skin a whitish colouring. Personality: An aura of command surrounds her, however, she is usually quite a nice pony. She has quite a demented sense of humor, but when it gets down to business, she's relentless and determined to get her point across. She can be quick to anger when she feels disrespected, but she respects and accepts those who do the same for her. She is loyal to her crew, and friendly to them. She treats everyone as equals, unless it's rather obvious someone needs to be treated as an inferior. True to her word, she never breaks a promise she has made. She flirts often, and usually uses it to get what she wants. She enjoys the company of mares, but occasionally she hooks up with a stallion. Smart, funny, and flirty, be on your toes around this mare, or you may find some items missing that you'd had before. Cutie Mark: A gemstone gear. She got it after she found she had a knack for dragongem magical engineering, and had made a number of fancy gadgets already. Random Fact: She loves clockwork things, but never really got the hang of them herself. She can build anything with dragon crystals, but when it comes to clockwork, she can't do anything with it. Ship: The Crystalline Phoenix. A ship made completely of dragongems, this ship is a marvel among ponies. Defensively, it's the greatest ship among ponies, armed with a dragongem magic force field, which renders magic used by anything but dragongems useless. Originally, this was a problem for the unicorns on board, seeing as how anything magical that didn't use dragongems didn't effect the ship within a ten foot radius, but progress is being made in making a dragongem catalyst for such unicorns. The Crystalline Phoenix has quite a bit of physical defense as well, allowing it to take quite a beating before needing to pull out of combat. Offensively, on the other hand, is still in the primitive stages. Armed with one dragongem cannon on either side, the ship's firepower is dwarfed by its defensive power, rendering it better as a transport ship and lifeboat than a combat ship. With good defense, who needs offense? Rank: Captain Weapons/Fighting Style: Custom built dragongem wing blades adorn her sides, and she wears a single dragongem pistol. Adept at her own style of close combat fighting, she has yet to meet another who can beat her at her own game. Lifelong Dream/General Goal: To reunite with her father and bring vengeance to those who kidnapped him. History: As a little filly, she was a daddy's girl. Her mother passed away when she was born, so he raised her all alone. He was an airship engineer, and a good one at that. He built legendary ships and repaired ships that had fallen into ruin. His own ship was called the Phoenix. When she was younger, she helped him build ships. Until one day she came across a dragon's lair, chock full of gems. The dragon had been long dead, its skeleton still lingering there. She brought back some of these gems, and her father immediately moved into the cave, parking his airship in front of the entrance to it. They both worked tirelessly for almost fifteen years, building what they thought would be a crystalline ship, the first of its kind. She grew an affinity for these lovely gems, and soon started working on mini projects with them. Guns, blades, energy sources, she tried it all. . In the final phase of building, pirates came and kidnapped her father and his own airship, The Phoenix, hoping to have him build them more legendary ships, and taking him away from building any more. Moondust emotionally broke down, but continued work on the ship, to take her vengeance on those who'd kidnapped her father. Three years had passed since the kidnapping of her father, and now her ship has been finished and in the air for going on a year. The Crystalline Phoenix, the first and only of its kind takes to the skies for its own brand of justice: Revenge. (This app was fun to create and took a lot of thought. Hope it goes over well with you StarStorm. )

I got mine in.

Starbuster reacted quickly. She snapped up Tyrael and lifted off with him. [colour=#4b0082]"This can't be happening! What is going on?" [/colour]She dropped Tyrael on the ground. [colour=#4b0082]"Get these ponies out of here! I'm going to the castle to see if i can help get some of them out!"[/colour] She turned, and flew in through Canterlot Castle's eastern door. She flew above countless ponies attempting to flee the castle. She soared through the rooms, eventually coming to a room where a lone pony sat sobbing on the floor, apparently oblivious to the chaos around him. He looked familiar... [colour=#4b0082]"Captain? Captain Cross! We need to get out of here!" [/colour]Of course she knew who he was. As a Captain of the Night Watch, he watched over Canterlot as she did her job, escorting lost ponies to and fro. She'd seen him before, but not like this. He had been strong, held himself nobly, but now he was a sobbing wreck.[colour=#4b0082] "Captain, we need to go, now. There are ponies in need of your assistance, and they can't see one of their leaders like this. We need to help them, now." [/colour]She said to him, her eyes boring into him. [colour=#4b0082]"We need to search the castle for any stragglers or trapped ponies. Most of the ponies are taking the Eastern exit, so we need to get them out of either the Southern exit or the Western." [/colour]She softened her gaze.[colour=#4b0082] "Come on Captain. We need a leader. Who better to lead us right now than you?" [/colour]

No the kid was at the front of the audience. Right now i'm with Tyrael on a balcony.

I have NO idea how to reply right now xD Um... Anyone have any ideas on what should be done?

Starbuster laughed at the unicorn. [colour=#4b0082]"You aren't dirty, silly. Feeling a bit self conscious?"[/colour] She said, giggling at him. She picked him up and flapped her powerful wings, carrying him up to the balcony. Setting him down gently, she sat beside him.[colour=#4b0082] "So, you come here every celebration? I don't know that I've ever seen you, and I know just about everypony. That's what happens when you're a guide."[/colour] She sighed, remembering countless adventures she'd had before.[colour=#4b0082] "You know, one time, I had to escort Fluttershy home because she was too scared to go anywhere during a stormy night." [/colour]She laughed. [colour=#4b0082]"We had some good talks, you know, after she calmed down about the storm. She was so scared." [/colour]Starbuster said, smiling lightly.[colour=#4b0082] "I wonder what's taking them so long." [/colour]She said, looking up at the balcony of the princesses.

Starbuster was bumped from behind by a small filly. She turned, seeing a little filly at the front of the crowd. She smiled at the filly, picking her up and putting her in Starbuster's spot. Starbuster winked at the filly, and she smiled and turned to fly towards the back of the crowd of ponies. She looked around, seeing several ponies, and decided on occupying a windowsill to a nearby bakery. She spotted a lone unicorn below her.[colour=#4b0082] "Hey, you want a better view?"[/colour] She asked him, looking down at him. [colour=#4b0082]"I can get you up here if you'd like, you may be able to see better."[/colour] She smiled at him. She wanted to be nice in the spirit of things, so she wanted to offer him a lift.

Starbuster stepped out of the Cloudsdale Observatory, stretching her wings after a nice sleep. She looked up into the sky, regarding the stars with a fondness only she and a few others felt. Studying the stars, they told her that it was nearing the dawn of the Summer Sun Celebration, and that she must be ready for it. She disappeared back into her beloved Observatory, donned her cape, and stepped outside into the darkness of the night. It wasn't a long flight to Canterlot, but she wanted to be where the festivities were this year. Her gorgeous teal eyes scanned the landscape. It was beautiful during the nighttime, and quiet. Not like during the day, where ponies were out and about, playing or working or any number of things that ponies do. The dew on the grass sparkled in the starlight, the wind whistled through the trees, playing its own nighttime song. Starbuster sighed, stretching her wings out for the journey to Canterlot. She loved flying under the night sky, and it would give her time with her beloved stars that she loved so much. Flying over the fields on her way to Canterlot, the dew on the grass far below sparkled in the starlight, streaking through the sky with dazzling arrays of multicoloured lights, and Starbuster's smile could be seen for miles. She loved this time of night, when everything was waking up to come out and play, or enjoy the day. She glided towards Canterlot with a smile on her face. Her muscled wings rippled as they flew her closer and closer, until she reached the city. Landing, she nodded at one of the eastern guards, smiling at them. They knew who she was, of course. She'd only been through here hundreds of times, leading ponies into and out of the cities. She knew most of the Night Watch by name, and so they let her in. As she stepped through the gates of Canterlot, the gleaming white stone was beautiful to her. She looked up at the massive walls, always impressed at the architecture. She stepped inside Canterlot, and was immediately greeted with a flash of light from the sky. Blinding her momentarily, she looked up to see a shooting star... Which she found very quickly was not an actual star. She saw it fall to the ground and considered investigating, but decided against it, seeing as how half the guard had disappeared with its appearance. She went to where the ponies were to hang out and sat front row, awaiting Princess Celestia to bring out the sun. She sat, awaiting the opening of the Summer Sun Celebration.

YESSSSSSS! I've been so excited for this!
