  1. I'd really like to keep the Orange bit. It's really a part of who she is - It wouldn't feel right to take that away.

    If that's the case, I may have to look at making a different character. Fingers crossed though - I mean, the Oranges were in one episode for two and a half minutes. Hopefully I can haggle some leeway.... :-|

  2. Let me just say, I can't draw to save my life. I struggle with sheep - and well, you know. That's just a cloud with legs. I'm utterly terrible.

    SO...I like to make photoshop/manipulations instead, pictures of people's OC's and other requested wallpaers and such. Here's a few of my pictures, I hope you like them. If you are interested in having me ruin your pony, please hit me with a request and I can make you a wallpaper as well. :)

    (Apologies about the size!)

  3. Hey, thanks for the excellent feedback and the warm welcome :)

    1. In terms of her cutie mark, perhaps I've overworked her "Hate" of it. It's less hate, more...dislike. Being from a fruit based family and getting a fruit based cutie mark? She just doesn't like to be defined by her natural talent, like the rest of the Apples/oranges.

    2. The oranges in the show were shown to be somewhat class-conscious, I always wondered what it might be like for a character to have to grow up in that environment, again, perhaps I've gone slightly over board with the "hate" there, Citrus just doesn't get on with her parents.

    3. Ahhh, that's a fair point. I never considered - it's just been a part of her origin story since I made her. That'll be removed.

    4. I don't really understand this bit. I just wanted to make her "fit in" as it were. Isn't that what a good OC is all about?

    I'll make some edits, thanks for your feedback. :) :)

  4. RoleplayType: World of Equestria

    Name: Citrus Orange

    Sex: Female

    Age: Mare

    Species: Earth Pony

    Eye colour: Emerald green

    Coat: Orange

    Mane/Tail: Long and well groomed. A mix of dark and light orange.

    Physique: Physically fit and very agile, but not as strong as most other earth ponies.

    Residence: Citrus was born and raised in Manehattan, and still maintains a small home there - But goes on regular jaunts to ponyville and the surrounding land, leaving for months at a time.

    Occupation: - Self employed field researcher - usually independent - but occasionally employed by a shady patron to locate certain items of interest or high value. However, she occasionally stoops to common barwork during hard times if she requires extra bits.

    CutieMark: A slice of orange fruit. Like the rest of the Orange family, Citrus's cutie mark not only marks her as another shrewd Orange with a talent for growth - be it economical or physical. Citrus gained her cutie mark rather early for a filly - the earliest in her class by a few months. Although Citrus dislikes her family, she's always been rather proud of her mark, and the talents it represents.

    History:

    Born and raised in the pomp and circumstance of manehattan's upper class, Citrus's early life was defined by her family name - the Oranges were a fabulously wealthy family, and were highly respected among the upper classes for their fortune and shrewd business tactics. Citrus was always something of a wild-filly, refusing to conform to the stifling rules and expectations her parents placed on her - which placed her on the receiving end of many arguments with them - her father in-particular, who was especially stri Citrus's younger years were rather miserable despite the privileged upbringing she had. Over the years, the young filly's distaste for the political scene grew into scorn - and she regularly sneaked out of her home to experience the gritty, seedy underbelly of Manehattan. In the darker, twisting streets of the city, Citrus happily consorted with the poor and the criminal underbelly - her quick wit and sharp tongue allowing her to hide her upper class roots - and learnt a few valuable skills during her time there - including basic lessons in lockpicking and thievery.

    Citrus was still constricted to Manehattan's posher district most of the time however, despite her uninterested attitude, developed a fierce love for study and lore during her teen upbringing. Her impressive - though somewhat cold - intelligence earned her something of a mixed reputation among the upper classes. In her teenage years, Citrus was forced by her parents to attend the Manehattan Academy, even though her express wish was to attend a University in Stalliongrad. The mare held little interest for the subject her parents had selected for her (Agriculture) and instead threw herself into the study of ancient Equestria history, developing a keen fascination with the slightly darker side of Equestrian history and the numerous legendary artifacts and ruins that were lost to time.

    Citrus was a very gifted student, and earned top grades in her studies - but also frequently chastised for her flippancy and contemptible attitude towards some of her fellow students. after she graduated, The Academy also reported that several very precious books had gone missing from the library - they were never found.

    With her excellent grades, Citrus quickly created herself as a Field Researcher - with the soul intention of unraveling many of the ancient mysteries she had studied during her time at the Academy. However, when her parents learnt of their daughter's intention to leave Manehattan to pursue old fairy tales,, they confronted her and an argument ensued, resulting in Citrus leaving the family home stating she would forever be independent of them - both financially and physically.

    Likes

    Independence, reading, research, confidence, ponies who don't allow themselves to be stepped on, classical music and bars - the darker and dirtier the better.

    Dislikes

    "Stuck-up" ponies, ponies she considers unintelligent or dull, politics, fancy parties/balls, bossy individuals, busy-bodies, sentiment and insects.

    Character Summary

    Citrus Orange is a very intelligent mare, well spoken and very independent. Despite her upbringing, she is sharp tongued and sarcastic - as well as very condescending and harsh to those she considers inferior to herself , and those who waste her time.

    Preferring her own company most of the time, Citrus is rarely one to actively pursue relationships of any sort - she finds the idea of intimacy of any kind there of rather uncomfortable, and does her very best to avoid such scenarios. Although she displays an air of confidence, her lack of tact often rubs ponies the wrong way - even when she doesn't intend it. Her constant travelling and personality have left her with precious few confidants and even fewer friends. In her darker moments, Citrus is actually quite lonely - though she would never admit it, even to herself.

    ​Citrus moral alignment is of chaotic neutrality. She cares little for morality, usually serving herself and following her own whims. She dislikes authority - especially when that authority attempts to restrict her or impede her own goals. While she strives to protect her own independence, she will rarely go out of her way to defend the liberty of another unless she feels compelled to do so: an example being that Citrus feels a certain instinct to defend the poor and the wretched - something that stems from spending her youth in the poorer areas and seeing the trails of those who lived there first hand.

    Hellooooo!

    Nice place you have here....I started my first RP over at Fimfiction.net a few months ago, and enjoyed it so much that I've started searching for new places to join and feed my new addiction.

    I'm currently fishing around for the best site that fits my interests, and this place seems pretty nice. :smug:

    I also make OC photo manipulations/wallpapers for OC characters, as well as lots of other random stuff. If you fancy a nice wallpaper dedicated to your OC, or another pony...well. Hit me up sometime.

    I think that's everything! <3
