Alivda Posted June 4, 2018 Report Share Posted June 4, 2018 Hello, I'm Alivda, though I also go by Aliv, Sarzeath, or Sar, if you've seen any of them around on this wide word of webs. I work night shift in a window factory, so I'm mostly active at night my time, (central USA, gmt-6, for those of you who are curious). I play a lot of games, card, board, tabletop, and even video. I've had an OC char idea bouncing around for a while, and been looking for a place to role play MLP, finally decided to just Google it, and found this site lol :p. I am kinda embarrassed about this, but the entire reason I started watching the show is because Josh Scorcher over on YouTube made a list of best music battles, and number 5 or so was the goof-off, which for those of you having trouble remembering, is in the episode Pinkie Pride, which has the guest Weird Al, as Cheese Sandwich. So... one thing lead to another, and I ended up watching the entire series just so I could make sense of that one episode. I honestly am not sure who I would call my favorite, but I've always been a bit indesicive. If I had to choose, it would probably be Twilight, but I'm a sucker for Tara Strong's voice work, seeing as I've basicly grown up with it. Only got a few more things to say... I'm hoping to have a good time here, and am kinda a veteran roleplayer, having played everything from Dnd 2nd ed. to having been a pretty active player on another site. One more thing, if any one could inform me exactly how the world of equestrian role play works, that would be greatly appreciated. I mean, does it function like normal, but you have one character that travels through the different topics, or what? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kahoot Posted June 4, 2018 Report Share Posted June 4, 2018 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alivda Posted June 4, 2018 Author Report Share Posted June 4, 2018 Thanks for all the warm welcomes... unfortunately, it'll be a bit before I'm gonna app for WoE, cause I'm not sure about my OC with the site's guidelines. She doesn't violate any of the rules, just not sure if she's acceptable, hence why I'm waiting for a response in the RP Q&A thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
