WillowWing Posted August 21, 2012 Report Share Posted August 21, 2012 Roleplay Type: World of EquestriaName: Spectrum StarNicknames: Spectrum, Spec, Star, StarrySex: FemaleAge: Young MareSpecies: Earth PonyEye Color: Light VioletCoat Color: WhiteMane/Tail/Markings Color & Style: Mane: Neon pink, yellow, green, blue and purple ((every color of the rainbow EXCEPT orange)) kind of bun...thing... ((Check the reference pictures, it's hard to describe. Tail: Same colors as mane, kind of wavy and always kind of messy and put up in a...'pony tail'...always held with the same band.Physique: Taller than usual and thin, with lean muscleCutie Mark: Pink, green and blue 'rainbow' with a golden-yellow four-pointed star over the middle. Origin/Residence: Grew up in and around Fillydelphia and the Saddleveil plains. Now has a permanent residence in Canterlot, but travels quite a lot.Occupation: Traveling in a troupe as an acrobat/performer.Motivation: To entertain and excite her audiences. There's nothing she enjoys more than seeing other ponies awestruck by her acts.Likes: Cool weather, thunderstorms, music of almost any type, performing, chatting with random ponies, calm conversation over hot chocolate, bright colorsDislikes: Stupid ponies, annoying ponies, failing at anything, especially her actsCharacter Summary: Spectrum is generally calm, cool and collected. She always appears sweet and polite, and is very good at keeping her emotions in check. Her demeanor is one of elegance and sophistication, and she only really lets herself go when she's performing. Her lithe body and long limbs have helped transform her into an accomplished acrobat.She's a little OCD, and always has to have things clean and organized. Bad or unfamiliar smells get on her nerves, and her house in Canterlot is pretty much immaculate.Though quite smart, she never finished school because her parents took her to join a troupe of traveling performers. She can't read very well and hates to write, but she's quite good at solving real-world problems.Background: When her parents decided to leave Fillydelphia with Spectrum in tow, the filly learned to love the traveling lifestyle. Her parents left the troupe within a few years, but Spectrum refused to go with them, deciding instead to stay with the troupe and further her career as an acrobat. She has since gotten a few offers to leave the troupe and perform elsewhere, but she always refuses; nopony knows if it's because she loves her troupe, or because she's waiting for a better offer.She has some communication with her parents now, but hasn't seen then since they left her with the troupe.Spec's Cutie Mark- Spectrum got her Cutie Mark only a few months after moving in with the troupe. She had begged for weeks to try some of the trapezes and other equipment, but hadn't been allowed to because she was too small. Eventually, she decided to ignore her parents and older troupe members and tried by herself. Though she had no idea what she was doing and broke her leg falling off a trapeze, she loved the experience of ponies watching her (whether screaming at her to get down or not) and knew she was destined to be a performer.The star stands for her love of performing in front of an audience and being a 'star'; the rainbow represents her calm, kind, graceful personality and her love of making others happy.Spec's Outfit and Hair- Though she has often been complimented on her beautiful white coat, Spectrum loves colors too much to resist the gaudy troupe outfits. She always wears her 'boots' and corset when performing, and a lot of the time she isn't as well. She got the tattoos under her eyes and her ears were pierced the day after her parents left the troupe, and show that she is a member of the traveling lifestyle.No pony really knows why Spectrum's mane and tail are such bright colors; her parents assumed that their ancestors must have passed it down, because they couldn't remember anyone in their family with hair as outrageous as Spec's.Spec's Performing- Spectrum is the acrobatic part of a several pony performing troupe. It's basically a circus, and Spectrum is the one that flies around on trapezes and does gymnastics and stuff. Her's is the biggest part of the show, as she is swinging around most of the time as the other acts below her are going on. Some other acts include clowns and other comedy, daring stunts, exotic dancing and firebreathing, and other classic traveling carnival type acts.~~~~~~~Alright! Finally finished and ready for feedback and review. (: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mojo Posted September 9, 2012 Report Share Posted September 9, 2012 Hi WillowWing!Excuse the pun, but this is certainly a colorful character!I like her uniqueness and interesting cutie mark story!Tell me a little more about her performing shows. Is she a 'one pony' acrobatic show? Not trying to be picky, but I'm kind of having a hard time visualizing it in my mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mojo Posted September 12, 2012 Report Share Posted September 12, 2012 Talked to Senior RP Staff about this app. One small issue, the 'unexplained elements' of Spectrum's cutie mark. They sight the ambiguity of the statement: "the rainbow doesn't have an obvious meaning". If you fix this part, I believe they'll be ready to approvee this app. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
