AlphaNumeric Posted May 11, 2015 Report Share Posted May 11, 2015 Hey guys, this is going to be my first non FFA roleplay, so if I've got dumb idea's or you think of a better way to execute whatever I've got in mind, feel free to give me advice (or tell me I'm a bleedin' idiot, I won't mind). So the story/premise thus far is that Val has very recently separated herself from the changeling Hive and is hiding out in Ponyville because she thinks that her former comrades want her head of a pike (figuratively speaking, or perhaps literally, if you guys really want to take it that direction). However, as noted in Val's character sheet, she still thinks that ponies are bad creatures, and she doesn't quite know how to act like a pony, so she's a bit of a nervous wreck. If you have ideas, advice, or think this idea is going to trainwreck, don't hesitate to tell me.

PyroBlaze Posted May 11, 2015 Report Share Posted May 11, 2015 I wouldn't mind having her meet up with any of my characters in my log. Most notably for this one, probably, would be the changeling character I have, Flux. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tymiko Posted May 11, 2015 Report Share Posted May 11, 2015 I have a changeling character who can help her out, too, since he's also pretty much on his own and wandering for the fun of it. If you're interested, of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlphaNumeric Posted May 11, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 11, 2015 Do you guys have anything that you think should be explored in the thread, any suggestions or the like?Also, I think three changelings should be a lot of changelings already. Perhaps at this point we should look for pony characters? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PyroBlaze Posted May 11, 2015 Report Share Posted May 11, 2015 Well, if that's too many changelings, I could bring in one of my ponies or one of the other characters I have. I'm not sure what to suggest though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlphaNumeric Posted May 12, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 12, 2015 Well, we'll see. I'll let the thread sit for another day before I start drafting the actual thread. In the mean time, are the any particular directions you wan this RP to go, or do you want to go free flow? Also, do you guys want to do Slice of Life, or Adventure/Arc sorta thing?

PyroBlaze Posted May 12, 2015 Report Share Posted May 12, 2015 I'm up for either adventure or slice of life, and I'm up for the more free-flow type of thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiktaalik Posted May 12, 2015 Report Share Posted May 12, 2015 I wouldn't mind tossing Figment/my changeling in. He's pretty good at ponying and could end up maybe helping her out. Or something. Nougat/my pony character could work too, if you'd rather balance it out a bit.. He'd be way more interested in learning about changelings than actually reporting them or doing anything responsible. > > As for the RP plot/etc... Well, changelings kind of already add a layer of intrigue. But, I'd be okay with slice of life or more adventure. or, we could start as one and go into the other...

AlphaNumeric Posted May 12, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 12, 2015 We've got about four people right now, so I'd like at least a 1:1 pony:changeling ratio. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PyroBlaze Posted May 12, 2015 Report Share Posted May 12, 2015 Yeah, I'll be one of the ponies in that case. Just got to figure out which of my ponies to use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tymiko Posted May 12, 2015 Report Share Posted May 12, 2015 I have a couple more ponies I could offer up along with or in place of the Changeling I mentioned. I have a pegasus who's relatively friendly but is deathly afraid of magic (and, by extension, unicorns). I also have a half pony, half zebra who's trying to find out how to fit in with other ponies himself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moonshineTheleocat Posted May 12, 2015 Report Share Posted May 12, 2015 I'd be willing to throw down a live pony for testing, Java. He see's life pretty objectively when it comes to species. And doesn't give two flips if you're a changeling in disguise or not. And given that he already knows flux is a Changeling, she could possibly drag them to -his- house along with her friends. Though that's only if you want him to be in Canterlot....Other wise he's still up to the challenge of getting him accustomed to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlphaNumeric Posted May 12, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 12, 2015 Alright, looks like we've got a good crew. I'll be posting the thread tomorrow morning. If you have any questions, concerns, or suggestions please post here or PM me before then. Here's hoping for a good RP! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlphaNumeric Posted May 13, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 13, 2015 Okay, the thread is posted!The character lineup has been moved to the original post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PyroBlaze Posted May 13, 2015 Report Share Posted May 13, 2015 I'm gonna play Pyro, if I'm stuck in the pony slot, which would be perfectly alright with me. If I could though, I think I'd like to move over to the changeling side and use Flux. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlphaNumeric Posted May 13, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 13, 2015 Discuss with that with Kitomyx. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiktaalik Posted May 13, 2015 Report Share Posted May 13, 2015 Heh. I kinda felt like I was leaning towards Figment as well. > > It looks like he could end up being the only loyalist, which might be interesting. Not that Nougat won't be good. I'll just post with him if there's no spots for Figment in the end or it seems like it's slowing things down. ;l Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tymiko Posted May 13, 2015 Report Share Posted May 13, 2015 Uhh...I don't have a preference, so...what did you want to balance things out, Alpha? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PyroBlaze Posted May 13, 2015 Report Share Posted May 13, 2015 Kitomyx said it was fine, so I'll be using Flux, my changeling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlphaNumeric Posted May 13, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 13, 2015 Here's the current list of characters:http://www.canterlot.com/topic/20621-how-to-be-a-pony-interest-check-and-ooc/?p=523170 Sometime later tonight, I'll be moving that list onto the first post of this thread.

Tiktaalik Posted May 13, 2015 Report Share Posted May 13, 2015 Well, since it's an odd number anyhow... Any objections to me playing Figment after all? Unless we'd rather have an extra pone rather than changeling. I'm feeling a bit more 50/50 towards either now, so, whichever. ;l Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlphaNumeric Posted May 13, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 13, 2015 I'd rather an extra pony. Though if you guys wish otherwise, go ahead and let me know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tymiko Posted May 13, 2015 Report Share Posted May 13, 2015 You know what? I think maybe I'll sit this one out so it isn't too crowded and you guys can be even. I had just figured I'd offer before because i didn't know how many others would show up/be interested. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlphaNumeric Posted May 14, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 14, 2015 Disappointing to see you go, but that's alright. We've still got that other thread you're planning anyways. If you want to join in here sometime later, feel free to shoot me a PM or post in this thread! As for the rest of you guys, the post order will be determined by whoever posts first, and then solidified once everyone has posted once. So far the current order is me, then PyroBlaze. Also, the character list has been updated and has also been moved to the original post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I should start an rp for that one, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
