Hiya~

[dragonofruin]

Hey, I'm Mal! If you wanna just call me 'dragon', that's fine too. I just got introduced to this forum by someone I know, and I'm really interested in getting to rp more actively with others again.

 

Roleplay/writing are one of my passions, along with drawing. I'm not too much of a serious artist and the most that I do is just draw my or others' characters. I've got a handful of OCs hoarded away and I hope to dust them off~

 

I first learned about mlp some years back and I was interested enough to try watching the show. It kinda reminded me of when I used to watch the older cartoons when I was a kid, and I came to love how cute it was pretty quickly. It's kind of grown into an obsession/special interest for me. I'd first gotten into mlp rp specifically when I ran into a then-acquiantance on a little pixel game in a dusty corner of the internet, and it just sort of went from there. It's fun and one setting that I truly enjoy.

 

I'd have to say my favorite characters would have to be King Sombra, along with Celestia. I really ship them too.

 

I suppose the only questions I'd have is if pony-zebra hybrids are allowed? I hadn't seen anything about them/such hybrids in the playable species list, because I have a couple of zony characters.

And if so, would they be allowed to have wings (if one parent is a pegasus) or a horn (if one parent is a unicorn)?

Welcome to Canterlot.com!

I am Kahoot  

 

I am more than positive you will enjoy your stay, to start off of course... You should probably read the site guidelines and protocols of RP before getting started. The rules are easy to follow and simply a way to allow everyone to have fun. Now, anypony is allowed to post a thread in the Free For All section without making a character application... This is where things may seem a bit confusing, but do not fret! A character application is basically a description of your OC or a character you would like to use in the World of Equestriaforum. In fact, they're not at all hard to make, here is a guide on how to make one and here is an example of one (As you can see in the comments of my thread, a Senior RP Staff or Moderator put an approval message, this is when you know you're all set for RP fun in the WoE section). As you can see, under your profile image it says "Member", once it says "RP Certified" like under my profile image, that is when you know you're set and ready to RP in the WoE section as well. Also! It may take a day or two for you to become RP Certified, for me, it took a bit longer and if you've been waiting a while, don't hesitate to contact staff... They're really nice and helpful!

 

Free For All- You do not need an approved application or be RP Certified, your OC can be anything you like... From an alicorn to some weird hybrid of a monster... It's all up to you!

World of Equestria- Your character has to be more realistic, here are some examples of animals your OC may be... Staff may ask for you to change a few things before they can approve it. If you want to use a pony or animal from the actual MLP show itself, you will also need to make an application for them... Here is a list of cast members from the show!

Crossovers- Want your pony in a video game, anime, show? Look no further! For here is where your pony can live in Narnia, maybe even the land of Ooo? Anything!

Multiverse- Basically a place for Alternate Universe's.

Out of Character Discussion- Now, they're two of these... One for the Free For All forum and one for WoE forum. Here, you can plan out your RP's, it's a great tool if there is more than you and another pony!

 

Don't forget to title for RP's with Open (If you're still welcoming more players), Closed (If you're no longer welcoming anyone else), Ask to Join (If someone would like to join, this title tells them to contact you for permission), or Sign up in OOC (This directs an interested pony to go to your thread in the Out of Character section to sign up... This basically means they will provide a description of the OC or character they would like to use... This is good for long-term RP's with a lot of players)

 

Now I know, this may seem really complicated but it isn't once you get the hang of it! I went through this process myself and now everything is going by like a piece of cake  

Already have OCs? You will need to make an application for them if you would like to use them in WoE as I stated above, although, you can freely use them in the Free For All forum without them being approved.

 

If you still feel lost about a certain forum, there is a description in small letters underneath the title!

 

You can make a character log to hold all your OC's and playable cast members, here is an example. Character sheets are the Free For All version of a character application, here is an example.

 

Hopefully, I cleared up most things... If you're still lost, simply ask for help! I am more than happy to help a fellow member out

 Welcome to Canterlot! Don't forget to have fun!  

 

I think Zony OCs are alright. Free for All is where anything is possible, so I'd say check the species allowed in the WoE section or contact a member of staff before apping.

Thanks, both of you! c:

 

I've been perusing all the info on the site, especially the rules and stuff~ I'll be sure to ask staff about zonies!
