Starburst

Sounds like something from indiana jones then.

Questionable content, Least I could do, Order of the stick, Nerfnow.

Step 1 of Survival: Wall off your land and make sure it's well lit. Make underground doors to get in and out of said land.

As far as mining is concerned, There are no such things as personal mines, as you have the chance of digging right into someones mine anyway. There's a mine entrance right outside the Canterlot area that you can access by lever and by going down the stairs. If you need to start digging just dig, as there are no rules for doing so. If there's a mine and there are minerals there and you mine them they're you're minerals. This isn't the same for houses, but for mines I think its pretty fair.

There are plans of building a cloudsdale in the future, yes. Right now we're just sort of doing regular builds. I've half-built canterlot castle myself.

I gotta see this. X3

After the other ponies leave, Starburst wipes down the tables and countertops with a cloud, squeezing water out when she needs to clean a certain part of the table. Shortly after she begins cleaning she also begins singing. Her songs have no words, and are only melodic in nature. After getting the entire tea shop spotless she begins to bake another tray of cinnamon buns, as her previous supply has nearly been exhausted by everypony coming into the shop.

It doesn't take much to run minecraft. I recommend a laptop with at least 2-4GB of ram and a Quad Core processor at least, And a video card with at least 512MB video ram.

Starburst nods, pouring herself a cup of tea after collecting the half-full pot from Colton's table. She also reaches into the baked goods and pulls out a cookie, chewing it along with the tea. "It's so nice that they have someone to love."

Starburst smiles, sipping a cup of tea behind the counter.

"The candles in my Candelabra are enchanted." she says with a smile.

"I'm.. Starburst." she says. "I've run this tea shop by myself for a few years now. She says, smiling." "I don't spend much in operations costs, only the cost of the tea, the ingredients for the baked goods, and the candles.. I actually have quite a bit of money saved up that I could close the shop right now and live for a few years on my savings."

Starburst grins at the comment. "The shop is made of clouds, so in order to keep a fresh group of customers coming in, all I have to do is move it and lay down planks for the earth ponies and unicorns to walk on. I can take it wherever I want to." she smiles. "I think its going to do some good business here. Lots of rich ponies with rich tastes. I used to have a delivery pony deliver my baked goods here, but now I can sell them fresh. Every dozen cinnamon buns makes 60 bits. That's a lot of money.. but I've never had any money troubles since I've started selling tea. Ponies in Canterlot seem to love tea more than Cloudsdale, though."

Starburst reaches behind the counter, pulls a pot of tea off of a hot plate behind the counter, and pours a cup for the griffon. After placing the teapot back on the hot plate she places a cinnamon bun onto another saucer, hot icing dripping off the surface of the moist bun. "Six bits please." she says, smiling.

Starburst reaches behind the counter and hands Gladwin a voucher. The voucher reads: "Free cup of tea with the purchase of baked goods." Oolong or Darjeeling not applicable towards offer.

"I would be glad to make you a cup. However, due to the price of the tea itself it doesn't qualify for the promotion I have running for a limited time." Starburst says.

Starburst mixes some mint leaves with one of her finer blends of black tea and lets the pot steep. She moves over to the baked goods and pulls out a lemon tart, depositing it on a plate for Flickerlight. "Four bits please," she says, smiling. She exchanges coins with the pony and escorts her to a table, pulling out the chair and pushing it in after she takes a seat. After a few minutes have passed, she walks out, with some very expensive looking china, slides a saucer onto the table from her wing and places a teacup ontop of it, pouring some tea and sitting the tea on another doily. "Enjoy your tea!" she says, beaming at the mare. She sees a Griffon enter the tea shop and politely asks if he'd like to take a look at the menu, trotting behind the counter, retrieving a menu from a receptacle and handing it to the new customer. On the menu are very appetizing items, but the things listed that appear to be most expensive are the Cinnamon buns, at Six bits each, and a pot of Oolong or Darjeeling costs about 30-60 bits, due to the rarity of the leaves and the taste. The cinnamon buns are widely regarded as one of the best baked goods in all of Equestria. The specially made cinnamon buns are so soft and the icing so tasty, that even the canterlot elite frequent the tea shop to eat them. Starburst makes many dozens of these per day, and always has some baking, because they're one of the first things she sells out of.during a day. They're available by the dozen at 60 bits, for a discount of 12 bits per dozen. There are still three sitting in the glass cabinet, which is a surprise.. but she did just open the shop for the day... so that might explain it. ( First post updated with a menu. )

(Tea takes about six minutes to steep before being served.) Starburst finishes steeping Colton's Blueberry tea and brings a teapot out to his table, lifting it with her mouth by the handle. She slides a teacup off of her wing onto the table and tilts her head forward, pouring the tea into the cup. After she pours the tea, she sets the rest of the pot onto the table on a doily, and moves back behind the counter to attend the next pony. Soon after she addresses Flickerlight. "What can I get for you today?" she says, beaming.

Starburst pulls her neck in, shrinking at the request for her name. She looks away towards the floor and shyly responds, "St-..ar..burst..."

Starburst nods while looking away and mashes some blueberries into a pestle, dripping the juice into the steeping teapot. She also grabs a pair of tongs with her mouth and deposits one of the cinnamon buns onto a saucer. After doing so she picks up the saucer by sliding it onto her wing and deposits it on the counter in front of Colton. "Six Bits please." Starburst says with a smile.

Not at all.

Starburst flashes a sincere smile at the new mare, and prepares another pot of hot water to make tea for her when she walks in. "Welcome to a little slice of heaven, What kind of tea can I serve you today?" Starburst loses her initial fear of the first stallion when another mare comes into the shop, stepping into the back of the shop to recover some cinnamon buns from her oven. After putting on some hoof-mitts and removing them from the oven she covers them in hot icing, and places them behind the glass in the front of the store, removing her hoof-mitts and hanging them on a hook. "It takes approximately four to six minutes to steep a pot of tea, so you can both order now and I'll bring the pot out to you when it's finished." Starburst replies with a newly fearless smile. "There are sugar cubes on each of the tables if you want something sweet to snack on while you're waiting on your tea.. or if you prefer your tea sweet. And if you have a coupon, I can go ahead and set you up with one of my fresh baked sweets while you're waiting as well." Starburst trots back into the back room to retrieve some candles, and then trots back into the dining room, replacing some of the nearly burnt out candles with the fresh candles of a different scent. "So what can I get for you?" she says, looking towards flickerlight, while also throwing a glance over towards Colton, propping her hooves under her chin and staring in her direction.

Starburst manages a weak smile and lowers her eyes to the teabags and tea leaves she keeps neatly arranged below the counter. She fidgets with them a little and turns around, grabbing a teacup and a saucer, pouring hot water into the cup, steeping a blend of tea leaves for a few minutes. "So.. what kind of.. fruit..?" she says, looking down at the floorboards, averting eye contact with the new pony and his outstretched hoof, not out of dislike, but out of fear.

There's a server map, and /home invite commands work for instant teleportation to other ponies homes. I saw the tower you built. It's nice.
