He sighed and lowered his head. [colour=#008080]"Fine, I'll tell you the real story. I was walking down the street when those thugs started picking on a random mare across from me. They smelled of strong whiskey, so I decided to intervene before either side did anything stupid that they'd regret,"[/colour] he explained. [colour=#008080]"When I did, they turned their aggression towards ME, and I was forced to defend myself. I did, but unfortunately, the guards didn't arrive until I'd already knocked them all out, so they thought I was the bad guy, so they chased me half way across town..."[/colour] he explained. "[colour=#008080]I'm sorry I lied to you, but I was skeptical that you would report me to the Royal Guard."[/colour]

[colour=#008080]"Really? That's nice,"[/colour] he said.[colour=#008080] "Are we close? If we aren't, I think I should take a nap before- WOAH!"[/colour] The stallion jumped back as the purple earth pony stallion landed in the seat next to him.

The blue stallion looked up, a piece of wheat clenched between his teeth. He returned the hoofbump and rose from his place against the tree. [colour=#008080]"Yep, that's me. The name's Six String, by the way. I didn't actually expect any strangers to come here, but it's definitely a welcome surprise,"[/colour] he stated, his voice resembling that of an Australian. [colour=#008080]"So, why're you interested in travellin' to Extrequs? Any particular reason?"[/colour] he asked, scooping up Miles.

The stallion almost jumped back at the sudden outburst. He quickly regained his composure, however, and responded. [colour=#008080]"Stalliongrad? Hm... well, I have been needing a vacation... mind if I come along with you two? ...and wait, how did you play that tune with your tongue...?"[/colour]

A light blue coated unicorn sat outside the Everfree Forest, patting his dog Miles on the head. His white stetson protected his giant eyes from Celestia's raging sun as he lay propped against the tree near the entrance. Earlier that day, he had spread various posters around town, asking for ponies to help assemble a crew for an expedition to the uncharted continent of Extrequs. Legend has it that the continent mysteriously vanished off of Equestria thousands of years ago for no known reason. For reasons no pony could guess, it had reappeared just a few days ago, and the ponies of Equestria were already starting to come up with crazy speculations. Though Celestia's Royal Guard had been posted in all towns near the coast to keep everypony from trying anything, the light blue unicorn had other ideas. All he needed was a crew to pull it off, and he would wait until he got one.

Awww... apparently this RP is dead. I'm gonna try and make a new version on my page to revive it.

[colour=#008080]"Oh. Good, good,"[/colour] he said with a smile. Then he frowned. [colour=#008080]"Wait, where is this train headed? I was supposed to get off at the Canterlot stop, but apparently I overslept and missed it,"[/colour] he explained.

Another stallion, a light blue-coated unicorn with a white stetson, who had been on the train walked over to the scene. He just looked at the three ponies awkwardly before speaking up. [colour=#008080]"Is she okay?" [/colour]he asked, gesturing a hoof at the mare in Flake's arms. [colour=#008080]"That guy really has an attitude," [/colour]he mumbled under his breath.

[colour=#008080]"Is something wrong, miss?"[/colour] Six String asked, genuinely concerned for her. [colour=#008080]"You look stressed to me."[/colour]

(Flink, I couldn't agree more. You can never have enough rope when you're going on an expedition. Good thinkin', my guy didn't pack any rope.)

He looked at her nervously, clearly under pressure. [colour=#008080]"Well, you see... I may have accidentally... played a song they didn't like, and apparently they were extremely drunk and decided beating me up for it would be the best course of action! Yeah, that[/colour] [colour=#008080]and I accidentally spilled one of their drinks,"[/colour] he explained strangely, as if he were making this up on the fly. He decided to change the subject in hopes of not having to further explain his predicament. [colour=#008080]"Soo... uhhh... what are you doing here?"[/colour] (Protip: he left out the explanation for the guards part. Also, he's lying to a certain extent; his clearly nervous face on my profile picture says it all!)

Sadly, I just realized I typed that without reading anything beyond page 1. I just went back to read it and now I'm thoroughly confused; what's going on? I DON'T UNDERSTAND

TF2? MvM? Ponies? My favorite three things... COMBINED!? You, sir, are brilliant. I refuse to pass a chance like this up. ~~~~~~ Roleplay Type: Mane vs. Machine Name: Swift Wind Sex: Male Age: Young Stallion (about 23 in human years) Species: Pegasus Eye colour: Gold Mane/Tail: Unkempt, messy and rugged (he likes it that way) Mane/Tail colour: White (primary colour) and black (secondary colour) Physique: Small and nimble, but still able to hold up in a 1v1 battle Occupation/Class: Professional athlete (running) and unprofessional baseball player Cutie Mark: A puffy cloud beneath the sole of a boot with wings attached (essentially a cloud with Hermes' foot on top) Hat: Backwards Ballcap and his first set of track gear (Track Terrorizer + Ball-Kicking Boots) Loadout: Soda Popper, Mad Milk, Sandman/Fan O'War History: When Swift Wind was young, he was violently attacked on his way home from school by a pack of vicious bullies. After recovering, he discovered that his wings were permanently crippled unless he received extremely expensive treatment. They offered to heal his wing for a hefty price, but young Swift Wind declined, earning him his cutie mark. Instead of choosing to soar through the skies like his fellow pegasi, he chose to tread the path by hoof (literally). He ran, and ran, and ran all day, until he managed to outrank most of Equestria's fastest runners (and fliers) in a matter of years. In addition, he learned to utilize his crippled wings to give him a second boost in mid-air, which he dubbed "the Double Jump," allowing him to reach great heights easily. He had been on a very long vacation from his racing career when he received the mysterious scroll from "Mane Co.," which requested his prescence. They said they needed a fast stallion like himself, and that no one else was right for the job; he didn't know why they picked him though. Donning his baseball cap and his trusty first suit of running gear, he waved his parents goodbye and set off for this strange "Coal Town" place... Character Summary: Swift Wind may seem like a jerk at first, with his snide and sarcastic attitude, however if you get to know him he is very loyal and true to his word. He will never leave a friend trapped in a pinch and he wll always lend a helping hand when he can, even if it means putting his life on the line. He also has a tendency to brag about his ability, though he doesn't notice it, aswell as being proficient in baseball (from his games as a colt). For some reason, he's also afraid of chocolate. SIDENOTE: If you haven't guessed what class this guy is yet, SHAME ON YOU.

A blue, light-coated unicorn stallion stepped off the train that just arrived in the Appleloosa train station, adjusting his white stetson with his dog following close behind. He looked around at the town he was in as the locomotive sputtered up and noisily moved to its next destination. Celestia's raging sun pelted him and his faithful canine companion with an intense heat, but he countered by levitating a water canteen out of his saddlebag and taking a swig of the contents (as well as giving his pet some too). He had first heard about the Company of Hidden Trails' expedition from one of his friends and had decided he could use the vacation to the unexplored regions of the Badlands. He also figured they could use his magic, since he guessed he'd be the only unicorn willing to make the long trek there and back again. He looked at the place marked "Appleoosa" on his map. [colour=#008080]"Yup, this is definitely the place," [/colour]he said to himself. He slowly began to trot down the bustling streets before catching eye of a white pegasus talking to another pegasus. For some reason, his gut told him that he should ask the hatted white pegasus where he should head. He approached her calmly from behind. [colour=#008080]"Ma'am, do you know where to find the meeting place for this?"[/colour] He asked her, levitating the bounty poster from his saddlebag so she could see.

He quickly snaps to attention, staring at Midnight. [colour=#008080]"I might have accidentally angered a few thugs, who then decided to chase me half way around Canterlot," [/colour]he said inbetween breaths.[colour=#008080] "I think they stopped chasing me a while ago, but I was too scared to look back or stop until I was inside. Sorry about that,"[/colour] he explained, pulling his white stetson off and wiping sweat from his brow. [colour=#008080]"Name's Six String, by the way. I really hope I didn't startle you,"[/colour] he said as he put the hat back on.

A light blue-coated unicorn stallion swiftly entered the music room, slamming the door behind him. He gasped for breath, looking out the window nervously. After a few moments, he turns back around, relieved, and notices the two mares for the first time. [colour=#008080]"Oh, uhhh... I'm.. uh... sorry."[/colour] he said before falling into an awkward silence.
