  1. Compass Rose grumbled as she neared the school, wasn't HER fault she didn't have a cutie mark, but Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon certainly seemed to think so. The young filly had waited for them to pass before making a mad dash for school, her lavender hooves a blur, indigo and purple mane and tail flying behind her in a mess of curls. She had heard it would be show and tell that day, or rather overheard Silverspoon asking Diamond Tiara what she would bring. As a last minute attempt to fit in, Compass had ran back inside her home and was now carrying a statue her uncle had given her. The unicorn was so focused on how to claim it was important to her when she not only ran through the school room door, but had to try andstop in time to not hit Miss Cherrilee, skidding to a halt and landing haunch over tail at the teacher's hooves. "M..Mornin', first day, Compass Rose reporting for class.."
  2. Compass Rose was about to resort to rolling around to try and dislodge the offending flier when she heard one of the ponies approach. Lowering her ears she sighed in defeat before turning her pale lavender head this way and that to try and get a look at her saviour. No matter how she turned, the mare couldn't get a glimpse of him, but he could no doubt see her cerulean eyes as she nodded meekly. "I'd appreciate it. No one warned me of attacking papers today."
  3. Compass Rose was trotting merrily down the street and just missed crashing into another mare. Needless to say just after passing her, the mare collided with another pony. Turning back around the lavender unicorn walked up to the pair, looking from one to the other to see if both were ok. "Either of you ponies injured?"
  4. Compass Rose walked rather happily down the street. She'd just found a lovely gem and was going to add it to her rathe sizable collection. She heard voices, causing the unicorn to stop and look around. Before she could go around them, however a flier flew and hit her in the face. Though her horn had punched a hole in it, she went cross-eyed, her bright cerulean eyes trying to read the print. The effort made the mare dizzy, causing her to sit on her haunches with a huff and shake her head to dislodge the offending paper. "Get off, bad flier!"
  5. OH. Duh, you said you won it. Told you it was stupid.
  6. Stupid question time, where did you get the plushie?
  7. Nice to see a fellow artist. I recently joined, myself. Maybe we'll run into eachother in the RP forums!
  8. She's still show accurate. Just not the most recent version. She's pretty.
  9. ((Is this RP still open, or is it invite only now?))
  10. Anyone crafty and make their own MLP items? Been looking for a good crochet pattern for any of them to see if I can do it. Also, I'd been considering a hoodie. But don't think I could take the teasing it would invoke, especially since I work at a large company. Thinking something smaller, like a figurine.
  11. Thank you, Armony. So far everyone's been nice. Aside from my phone and chat conspiring against me.
  12. RP Type: World of Equestria Name: Crème Brûlée Gender: Female Age: Mare Species: Unicorn Eyes: Cerulean Coat: Creme's coat is cream and near her hooves a dark brown. Mane/Tail: Her mane and tail are long and curly, consisting of a deep reddish brown and streaks of a deep pink. Physique: Slender, and a bit tall. Residence: The world is her oyster. But settling in Canterlot. Occupation: Creme Brulee is, by trade a travelling.. peddler to put it mildly. She collects goods on her travels and sells them in the next place she visits. Though, she's decided to set up shop in Canterlot and try her hoof at staying in one place. Her shop, Brass Antiques, sells a wide variety of items. She travels far and wide throughout Equestria, from major cities, to small towns, and even to forgotten ruins to acquire items for her shop. Cutie Mark: Creme Brulee's cutie mark is an ornate red and white vase on top of a blue background. History: Creme Brulee was born to Rose Silk and Haze, a young unicorn couple who were a stylist and construction worker respectively. They named her Creme Brulee after a dessert that means "burnt sugar" as with her coat starting out cream and being dark brown on her hooves, it reminded her mother of it. As a youngster Creme was into everything to try and gain her cutie mark. She tried everything from roasting marshmallow to ice sculpting, which just ended with her breaking a huge cube of ice. As more and more of her peers gained their Cutie Marks and she had none, Creme began to feel desperate to find what her calling was likes her friends. As the last pony in the age group, aside from Creme Brulee, got their cutiemark, the other fillies and colts started to tease the filly for being a blank flank. Weeks of teasing went by and it finally became too much, with Creme Brulee running from school, crying. Blinded by tears she didn't see where she was going and tripped over a rather expensive vase at an antiques shop. The filly broke into hysterics, crying and hiccuping as she tried to apologize to the old stallion at the store. The stallion, Brass Antique, offered the young filly tea and cookies, and told her a story about how he got his cutie mark as he calmed her down. Finally calmed down, Creme listened with rapt attention at the tale the elderly stallion spun about going on an adventure with his parents who were archeologists, and how he found his first item. Instead of wanting to take it to a museum, as it was a common item which most just sold, he decided then and there he wanted to sell antiques. With Creme Brulee no longer crying he offered her the smaller of a set of vases. The larger of which Creme had broken. He told her he didn't want the small vase to be alone, and that he knew she'd either take good care of it, or find it a new home. Creme thanked the old stallion and went back to school, vase in tow. There she told her classmates a splendid tale of how she found the vases and realized... they housed a genie stallion and his mare. With breaking the larger vase and saying a magic spell, the genie and his love were free. Creme's teacher, whether from the story, feeling sad for the filly, or the ornate red and white vase's beauty offered to buy the vase. After which Creme's cutie mark appeared, a red and white vase, in front of a blue circle. After school Creme told her mother and father what happened, and they took her to the shop, Brass Antiques, to apologize. Instead Brass invited them in for tea and told them how thrilled he was to have met such an amazing young filly. Especially one who kept asking questions about the items in the shop. Soon after, Rose Silk and Haze, agreed to let Creme Brulee work at the shop, as a sort of apprentice. There Creme worked until she graduated school and went to a college. Creme did well in college, but kept to herself there as she was there to learn. She had a few friends, whom she was close to. But it wasn't until after college, when Brass Antique gave her the money from all the items she'd sold the entire time she was at his shop. The money, she used to travel all over Equestria. She went from the usual cities: Cloudsdale, Manehatten, Delamare, Appleloosa, and to jungles, ruins, she even spent some time living with Zebras. The entire time she collected antiques, or relics, learned of the mythos for each place and wrote stories for the items she collected. Years later she has returned to Canterlot as Brass Antique is getting old and ready to retire. She bought the store from him, even though he insisted she could have it and has started running it herself, stocking it with her items, complete with a scroll for each and every story. Personality: When left to her own devices, Creme Brulee tends to read. When there's somepony to talk to, though, she'll talk. She loves meeting new ponies as their personalities may spark inspiration for one of her stories. When she's in work mode she's charming and more than willing to share the story of any of the amazing objects in her store. During down time, as in when home, or between customers she's either writing new tales. Or she can be seen with her nose in a book. She reads mostly mythology and history for inspiration for her stories. Which is one of her main flaws, she's so focused on getting to know ponies for her stories, that often times she's not good at being an actual friend. Though, with her charming personality and stories, no one generally notices. She also has a habit of pulling a scroll and quill out and writing about an item no matter where she is.. such as a street in Manehatten. Summary: Creme Brulee has met her life dream, to travel and collect items. But that isn't enough to live off of since she needs a place to put things while she tries to sell them. She's finally decided to try her hoof at staying in one place for more than a week. The unicorn is very determined that the store be just as, if not more, successful with her as it was with Brass Antique running it. She doesn't want to let him down. Should the shop fail, her mother has assured her there's a place for her at the salon. Though, Creme would much rather not work there. She's horrible at doing anything aside from braiding manes and tails. Creme also takes care of Brass Antique, though he rarely goes to the store. He's used the money Creme Brulee paid him for the shop to travel Equestria himself and regularly sends her items with a challenge to write about it and then sell it. --- I'm ready for my closeup, Mr. DeMille! As in, bring on the critique!

  15. What colour would you say his magic is? http://www.canterlot.com/uploads/gallery/album_710/med_gallery_7338_710_27290.jpg Also, work in progress. Any changes you want done? Sorry it's a link, symbols don't work on my phone since the last update.
  16. Oh no, not at all. I figured it would be PG, but I have actually read the rules as well. I'll be re-reading them periodically, just in case. I appreciate the thought, thanks.
  17. Yes, I do. I have to take pictures with my phone, for now. My scanner is.. elsewhere. I've been PG... Rosewind: Ah, it'll probably be busy when I'm leaving for work, then.
  18. Hrm, sounds interesting. Ever ventured into the chat? If so, is it slow, busy, somewhere in between?
  19. EE! My first welcome! Thanks bunches! What is your favorite thing to do on the site?
  20. About Myself: Hello, I live in the southern United States, my excuse for the "y'all" in my greeting. I like to draw, been on a bit of a pony kick lately. Well... that and puppies. Anywho, I like to draw, mentioned that already, write (including roleplay), read, and I'll think of more later. How I found Canterlot.com: Blame Google and a search for "My Little Pony role play." How I became a fan of MLP:FiM: Fan of Lauren Faust, checked it out since she was in charge. Fell in love. Even decided to continue after she stepped down to let others take charge. My favourite main cast pony/s: Rainbow Dash Please, call me Flink. I do not like being called "Pam." Yes, my name is Pink Flamingo with the first consonants switched. I did it on purpose. I look forward to maybe drawing some OCs, need something to kill time.
