  1. A quick bit of rules here, Please do not use this thread as a chance to antagonize, or get into a battle with The Freewings unless you pm me about it first! I don't really enjoy large brawls, so instead please instead mingle and meet :D let friendships and Rivalry's form!

    Canterlot was probably not the brightest place to dock, but the FreeWing was aloft in the air and well hidden, and the FreeWings wern't so well known that they couldn't dare to show their faces!

    GangPlank put his hooves down on the ground with a solid thud, grinning as he glanced around the city, stretching his back, he yawned. It was going to feel good to use his own two legs, and to stretch out! Not like the FreeWing was small or anything, but one did get tired and weary from constant travel!

    The first place he was off to was the nearest pub! A good drink of strong cider to put heart in a man, and some food that wasn't made by Gravy! (No offense to Gravy, but they had been a bit low on supplies so all the food was just the basic bare bones meal, he'd have to restock in town)

    GangPlank adjusted his glasses and headed towards the pub, whistling a jaunty tune as he did so, this was going to be nice.

  2. ChitinBanner_zps06c2759d.png


    Name: Chitin

    Gender: Male

    Age: Young Adult

    Species: Changeling

    Eye colour: Solid deep green

    Character colour: Black with holey legs!

    Mane/Tail/Other: Chitin's mane is dark green and spikes over his head, hanging in jagged strands in front of his eyes, his tail is long and has one little tuff sticking out at the top.

    Physique: Chitin is a changeling in his prime, lean, fast, and strong

    Residence: The Changeling Hive primarily but is currently taking residence as a shop owner's apprentice in Canterlot

    Occupation: Proud Soldier and loyalist to his queen

    Cutie Mark: Only the foolish ponies show off their talents on their flanks

    Unique Traits: Chitin has the unique ability to sense if another changeling is in disguise, this is helpful on the battlefield so he will never strike an ally down on accident. If a changeling is say, living among ponies he'll never give their disguise away, but he'll tell them in private that he does know.

    The ability works as a sort of "X-ray" He feels a twinge in his forehead that one of his kind might be close (due to his strong connection to his own kind), so he focuses and flicks his horn to cast the "detector" spell, it will make the disguise "transparent" for his eyes only and reveals the changeling underneath, it only lasts for a couple seconds, just long enough to be sure. In battle he doesn't hesitate to cast it often so he doesn't mistakenly strike a comrade ! But he does fail to use it consistently, and the end result is a slight headache from overuse.

    History: Chitin was born and raised in the hive, he fights for his queen always and never wavers in his loyalty to her and to her cause! From his youth he looked up to the soldiers that flew off with the queen and found them food, delicious delicious love! It was hard to watch them go hungry when food sources were low...When the attack on Canterlot happened Chitin was just a rookie and stayed behind to instead help with the young and other such tasks.

    Chitin never really liked to stay in the hive, hence why he took the role as a scout, scouting territories and reporting them to the hive, in his travels he's actually gotten a liking for ponies! So unique and diverse, while changelings did have their differences but were mostly the same..Ponies had so many colors, and Chitin decided he liked colors...with the hives permission he set out to live among ponies for a while to study them more, the more information the hive has the better off they are right?

    In doing so Chitin learned of many other delicious emotions they could feed off of..fear..which was addicting and so delicious, but was like junkfood..sorrow, which was bitter and yet refreshing..and his favorite of all..passion. A passionate pony gave off a aura that was purely delicious, so spicy and fiery, it set Chitin's heart and soul alight, and he wanted to feel what they did, that passion they had, a passion in their work, in their goals!

    After one taste he was hooked and he decided to stay among the ponies that seemed so passionate, fearful, and joyful, he decided to live in Canterlot.

    Chitin was also very attracted to shiny and beautiful gems, and he could use his magic to cut them splendedly, so using this he decided to create a ponysona as it were "Diamond Dust" to study, to learn, and to above all else, feel passion.


    Character Summary: Chitin is a two sided coin, you have Chitin the loyalist and Chitin the curious! Chitin at his core is loyal to his Queen, his hive, and his kind, and is more than willing to put their needs first in all that he does! He's cocky and likes to toy with victims of the hive, by making them angry and deterimed to strike him down, it makes the defeat so much sweeter! If the Queen herself asked of him to lay down in a puddle so she may cross he would do so without a hesitational thought!.

    On the other side there is his natural curiosity, his love for the world around him, the interest in the diverse, the different, the ever changing! That's why he's currently living among ponies! To see them thrive, to see how they manage to all be together, and yet be so different, to see what drives them on, and maybe just maybe have a little taste of that independance himself.

    Name: Diamond Dust

    Gender: Male

    Age: Stallion

    Species: Unicorn

    Eye colour: Deep green

    Character colour: Soft green

    Mane/Tail/Other: His mane is layered spikes, alternating between black, and a deep teal, his tail is short and the teal slowly leaks into the edges, he often wears a dark green band around it to keep it up and outa trouble!

    Physique: Slender and a little on the short side

    Residence: Canterlot

    Occupation: Gem Cutter

    Cutie Mark: sparkler__s_cutie_mark_smalll_zps478e6db

    Unique Traits: His magic is amazingly good at cutting and perfecting gemstones for settings and pieces.

    History: Diamond Dust is Chitin's disguise to live among Ponies, he claims to be from Whitetail Woods, with two loving parents that have long since retired and want their son to move on to greater things! After he outgrew colthood he had moved on to strike it on his own in Canterlot! Taken under the wing of a kind jewelry shop owner , Diamond Dust worked hard to harness his talents, and to produce quality work!

    Character Summary: As Diamond Dust, Chitin is kind, and optimistic, and friendly, always concerned and ever patient, very quiet and meek, and always willing to lend a hoof, in a way it's a polar opposite to how he is normally, it's a lil freaky but he has devoted hours and HOURS of time to perfect this ponysona of his and he's rather fond of it.

  3. It's not really said anywhere that the changelings can only subside on love, nor is it clear that if they do how much is needed and if it has to be done in such a violent way. I would think there would be a more peaceful solution for them out there.

    Also, following orders isn't necessarily a great excuse if those orders are clearly and inherently wrong. There is still guilt in not challenging them.

    All that said, I can't blame the changelings. With that adorable smile and laugh, I'd be pretty tempted to follow Chrysalis' orders too. ;)

    They arn't just following orders, they are following what has been BRED into them for years upon years, from birth they are taught to obey the queen, anything for the hive :-|

  4. Diamond Dogs - Equestria's Stalwart Miners

     

    fNXu3mY.png?1

     

    Diamond Dogs are rather interesting and unique creatures with features much like those of an ordinary canine, but which stand on two legs and are fully capable of speech. These creatures tend to live in dense camps in gem rich areas, sometimes staying there for years upon years, still mining in areas that their great grandparents had been mining in, only leaving when every last gem, ore, and coal has been removed from the land.Then and only then will the Diamond Dogs move on to a new area, but not before filling in their tunnels and making sure to plant trees, or whatever fauna is indigenous to the area so that the land can heal from their work.

     

    Diamond Dogs are almost always found in packs, but what they are actually like varies from pack to pack. Some packs are as big as three youngsters going off on their own, while other times a pack is a rather large group, all working together for the good of the group. An Alpha is usually always in charge, and can vary from pack to pack, usually by showing superior skill in areas that pack particularly values, be it strength and brawn, or craftiness and wit. The Alpha, be they male or female, normally shows these skills via their work ethics and is picked by the whole pack to lead them. An Alpha oversees the pack, planning places to mine, scouting them first, and in general makes sure the pack is happy and healthy. Being born to an Alpha does not assure that their pups will be given the same title.

     

    Gems are a valuable resource to the Diamond Dogs but they are not the only thing that they pursue in the mines--they also go after ores and coal to power their cities. Mostly they rely on steam and coal burning for energy, which they use for cooking, powering wind mills for flour grinding, and whatever else they need, the same way ponies rely on magic. Gems however are the bread and the butter, being used for trading, tool making, and even crafts. Young diamond dogs might display their most prized gems in a collar around their neck as a display of their findings, and mining prowess; Diamond Dogs prize gems for their beauty but also for their strength. Some clans only use diamond tipped pickaxes and spears because diamonds don’t break and last a extremely long time; some might even be using a diamond tipped pickax given to them that has been passed down for generations.

     

    Hunting and gathering is a crucial skill for any Diamond Dog worth their gems to have, since EVERYONE needs to contribute to the pack to make sure they are all healthy and happy, thus capable of doing even more work. Their diets, being omnivores, is rather diverse, and like the Diamond Dogs can vary from region to region. Some that live more near the coastal side of Equestria might live off a diet of fish and crustaceans, while those that live in packs in dense forests might survive off of produce they can forage or grow themselves due to the dense and diverse vegetation.

  5. Updated the app, Mentioned that I got permission for the history, and expanded it a little, reduced top of class to honors, and added a few more personal faults, and explained her beginnings as an attorney, she's not a newbie beginner, she's been doing this for a while, and I did want to express she does know what she's doing.

    Finally, I'm not quite sure why there are so many exclamation points at the end of your sentences. It would be best to use normal punctuation conventions to keep the reading and flow of the application in line with our quality standards

    It was a subtle nod to the video games "OBJECTION!!!" normally with lots of exclamation points ^^; that's all.

  6. PipsqueakBanner2_zps48c569dd.png

    Roleplay Type: World of Equestria

    Name: Pipsqueak (Commonly goes by “Pip”)

    Sex: Male

    Age: Colt

    Species: Earth pony

    Eye colour: Brown

    Coat: Pale cream with tan splotches, one over his eye, one on his chest, one on his rump, and one on his right back hoof.

    Mane/Tail: His mane is a long messy brown that is long in the front and goes to his neck in the back, it’s a rich chestnut brown, with a light brown highlight running through it, his tail is a puffy mess of the similar color and it’s very short.

    Physique: Pipsqueak to match his name is very small in stature, but he has rather large ears to comphensate for his short frame.

    Residence: Trottingham but is sometimes in Ponyville due to family living there.

    Occupation: Student

    Cutie Mark: Pip is currently a blank flank

    History: Pipsqueak is an only child , born and raised in Trottingham so he has a rather thick accent due to it! He has always been an exceptional listener, partially due to his big ears, and partially due to being so small he can stand somewhere and listen without other ponies noticing him.

    He’s a fun loving colt that recently got to go to Ponyville to enjoy his first Nightmare Night! Not to say that he wasn’t aware of the Holiday but his parents didn’t want the overly excited child running around the streets of Trottingham begging for sweets! While in Ponyville Pip got a rather good scare by one Princess Luna! She is now his favorite princess due to her fun loving nature, and due to her tendency to be rather scary if she wants to be!

    Due to being young Pip is easily impressed by older ponies and figure heads, and puts great stock into what they say, he tends to take their word as law on many things, and though sometimes problematic it’s sometimes rather adorable the way he will look up to somepony with big shining eyes, listening to every word they say.

    Since his trip to Ponyville Pip has grown a little bit and has developed a love for the “Daring Do” series and “Harry Trotter” books, like any colt his age he has a deep fascination with adventure and action, and sometimes can be seen playing “sword fights” or pretend adventures! Having a very active imagination and loves to weave their playing into dramatic tales of adventure and thrill!

    Character Summary: Pip is a kind hearted lad with a good head on his shoulders, a sharp listener, and a very imaginative child! Always trying to pull other fillies and colts (and even adults) into his games of adventure and fun! He’s a lover of plays and books, and any kind of good story he can get his hooves on.

    However he is also a little naive, and puts too much stock into what ponies he deems as “Role Models” say taking their advice even if it might not be the best for the situation; In turn Pip himself often will give very sound advice but then dismiss it due to it being his own...in short he often gives himself very good advice, but very seldom follows it…

    He is adventurous, fun loving, imaginative and when he needs to can be very brave, however his naivety and youth cause the occasional folly, he still for example still believes that girls have cooties and that kissing one will infect you with the dreaded virus!

    In conclusion he’s a well meaning lad that occasionally messes up but ALWAYS lands on his feet! Constantly growing and learning, finding his way in this big beautiful world.

  7. prismburstbanner_zpsa3d30851.jpg

    Prism was pretty exited for a day off! After stretching his muscles he crouched on the soft clouds, wings spread, a cocky smirk on his face, before LEAPING up and zipping off like a flash of light! Weaving and bobbing around the clouds with expertise! Leaving a trail of rainbow behind him as he did so, curling and twisting around the clouds, using the trail and his own body to shape the clouds to his will! After he was all done he landed and crossed his front hooves quite happily,

    He had made a image of Celestia in the clouds itself, perfectly framing the sun! He grinned and moved a hoof up to fix his mane... "Well ain't she a sight for sore eyes!"

    Glancing around he realized he was probably by himself and snickered, moving to trot somewhere to get a bite to eat! Maybe he'd find company today? Life was pretty lonely when your only child was the element of Loyalty and thus always busy..

  8. KalimeBanner_zps9384bde7.jpg

    The day was perfectly beautiful! Kalime left her pack's camp early in the morning and had dressed nicely, making sure she looked presentable, and started the walk to Ponyville, she wanted to get some nice quills and parchment, wanting to start writing about life as a Diamond Dog! So Ponies would know what they were like and maybe be less afraid, since she had to admit she was pretty big and intimidating...(hee hee)

    The town drew ever closer, and she soon crossed the bridge into the crowded street, glancing around, her tail now wagging and she couldn't help an enthusiastic...

    "HELLO PONIES!"

    For all of those that could hear her, grinning ear to ear! She was going to make friends, and they were going to have fun and today was just going to be amazing!

  9. brightstone_zpsbcf47e90.jpg

    Bright Stone had been waiting patiently and patiently for it, and then the response came in the newspaper! It made her feel all warm inside as she read the words, and cut the section out and put it in her room always! But that wasn't the end of the wonderfulness! A few days later an INVITATION! Came for her! To meet the Princess! And and and! OH MY CELESTIA!

    She squeed! She squeed so loud her mom thought she broke something! She was so happy!

    "I'M GONNA MEET THE PRINCESS! I'M GONNA MEET THE CRYSTAL PRINCESS!"

  10. brightstone_zpsbcf47e90.jpg

    The new column was amazing! Bright Stone had ALWAYS always ALWAAAYS wanted to talk to the Crystal Princess! RoseHip got out a piece of her favorite stationary, it was a creamy color with red lines to write on, and in the right hand corner was a cluster of Crystal Berries and three of their leaves, It was absolutely perfect for writing to a princess! After selecting the perfect pen that wrote in hunter green ink that glittered ever so softly, Bright Stone began to write her letter.

    Dear Cady

    HI! I am so glad I get to write to you! I'v always always ALWAYS wanted to meet the Crystal Princess! Thank you for getting rid of King Sombra! I'm glad you kicked his butt! But I'm not really old enough to remember that...Mommy says anyways!

    Anyways to stop my prattling on I want to ask you for advice on how I can make some friends...See there are two fillies in my class that I get paired up with a lot but they aren't nice.. first there's... Stinky Sharps.. she's really mean and she likes to boss and scam ponies, and is just MEAN MEAN MEAN! And then there's...Tortilla Lime Glass... Who's just so serious and bossy and ghn...

    I don't know what to do, I want to make friends but I'm always paired with two ponies who just see me as a silly filly... what would you do Cady? What would you do if you were the weird mare out that didn't really fit AND got teased for being the teachers pet?

    Your Faithful Subject...Dealing with Disaster..

    After signing her letter with a handle Bright Stone sent her letter in, hoping and praying she would get a response...
