QuietSapphire Posted November 16, 2012 Report Share Posted November 16, 2012 Roleplay Type: World of EquestriaName: Quiet HarmonySex: MaleAge: ColtSpecies: unicornEye colour: Dark BlueCoat: Ocean Blue, Wears a Black Vest and Black bands around his front and back legsMane/Tail: The Mane and Tail are White with some areas have a little bit of black on the end. The Mane is spiky with a few of them hanging down the tail is a bit spiky as well.Physique: He is about average height and weight for a colt, maybe a inch or two shorter, he is a little on the muscular sideLocation: TrottinghamOccupation: MusicianCutie Mark: A silver flute with 3 music symbols next to it. Growing up in Trottingham, Quiet Harmony was always a shy pony, even as a foal, he had a hard time making friends due to his shyness, and never said much, always being quiet. Even as he got older, he could never seem to get over his shyness.One day when he was walking home he heard something that caught his attention, He then went to see what it was, and upon reaching the destination, was a bunch of ponies playing. He smiled a bit as the music they played was soft and soothing, and seemed to lift his spirits. Once they were done and the ponies were leaving, he walked up to them and began to talk and ask questions, something that he never did before. As he talked to one of them, a Flutist who was old, he began to tell him that he was a shy pony, but listening to the music that they played, it seemed to make him more open. The old Pony thought for a minute and smiled, and told Quiet Harmony that he would teach him how to play the flute and help him overcome his shyness.After that Day, Quiet Harmony spent everyday with the old Pony learning how to play, and as he learned more and more, and improved, his shyness was being more and more at bay and was becoming more social. The Months went by and soon Quiet Harmony had learned everything from him that the old Pony could teach, which was sad as over the months, the Old Pony had become his friend, the only friend he made when he was shy. Also the Old Pony was leaving Trottingham as he had become very ill and was moving due to his health. Before the day that he moved, The Old Pony had gotten Quiet Harmony a gift for his own, a silver flute for him to use. Quiet Harmony smiled as he took the flute and told him he would treasure it forever, and promised the Old Pony that he would be the best Flutist in all of Equestria. On that Day as well, was the day Quiet Harmony would never forget as he earned a special gift, a special friend, and his very special Cutie Mark.History: Quiet Harmony was born in Trottingham and was raised there and still lives there today. Life was not easy as he was very shy and had a hard time making friends (See Cutie Mark section), Even though he plays and is more social, he still tends to be a little shy, especially around new ponies.His Mother and Father, Melody and A capella, raised him and tried to help him overcome his shyness, but when he was learning to play the flute, they were behind him all the way, and were happy as learning to be a Flutist helped him overcome his shyness.The Old Flutist, Virelai, to Quiet Harmony was like a grandfather and a very close friend to him, all the months that Quiet Harmony spent with him learning to play the Flute, The flute that Quiet Harmony still carries around is the only gift and only reminder of him as Quiet Harmony never saw the old Pony again after he left TrottinghamNowadays Quiet Harmony is a good flutist and plays with a orchestra in Trottingham, but his goals are to be the best flutist in all of Equestria, a dream that he Promised his teacher that he would make a reality. He also has gotten offers to play in other orchestras in other cities and towns, but politely turns them down, fearing his music is not there yet and wants to keep practicing more until he believes he is ready.Character Summary: Quiet Harmony is a very talented Flutist, Learning from a old Professional. He plays his flute to remember his old times with Virelai, but also plays his music to help cheer up anypony who is sad or upset. His dreams are to aim for the best Flutist in all of Equestria, and to make the old Pony he learned everything from, proud.He loves to play the flute he got as a gift and take care of it everyday as it means a lot to him. He still hates that he is still a little shy but he is trying to get over it. Because of this he is a little quiet at first, but when you get past his shyness, he is a very friendly and Kind Pony who loves to see people smile. Over time from his teachings and the happy memories he has become more open but he does tend to be a little quiet, something he is still trying to cope with, but has improved very well. He can't stand seeing ponies sad and tries to play his flute to make them smile again.His biggest fear is that he ends up alone and failed Vierlai. He also fears losing his flute or it being destroyed or damaged to the point it is no longer playable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
starswirlthebearded Posted November 16, 2012 Report Share Posted November 16, 2012 Honestly, this is a fantastic app. Everything is there from a detailed cutie mark story, to his personality (one that allows for significant growth in RP no less), to a short, but sweet character history. In fact, if I was going to point out any flaw (and this is by no means an actual flaw), it would be that the history is too short . But that is just me wanting to hear more about how your pony grew up and where he is now (as in, is he playing with an orchestra, small chamber quartet, what have you). Again, this is not necessary, its just things I personally would like to hear about. Though the learning from an old, but compassionate master, is slightly cliched, it is one of those chiches/tropes I don't mind seeing a thousand times over.As it is, I see no reason why a SRP Help staff would fail to stamp it.Just one side note, I notice that all names are musically related. If that is so, you misspelled the mother's name, as the term is [A] Cappella. (though if you wanted to be really clever you could make up a first name that starts with the letter "A" and say that people tend to call her "A Cappella" which is the proper term) I suspect that it was marked as you were typing it and changed it to the suggested correction. Capella is actually the name of a star, the 6th brightest to be precise, of the constellation Auriga. Naturally if that is what you intended, then all the more power to you!I hope to see this app stamped soon 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also thank you for pointing those things out to me as I can learn from them to make better applications in the near future, also thank you for pointing out about the name, Yes all the names i listed are all related to names and I didn't know that Capella was the name of a star, Now I can go back and change the name. Again thank you for pointing these little things out so I can make My application better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
