TheUmbrella Posted February 8, 2012 Report Share Posted February 8, 2012 Roleplay Type: Mane.Name: Firework.Sex: Male.Age: Colt.Species: Pegasus.Coat Color: Lavender Pink.Mane/Tail/Markings Color & Style: He has a long, wavy, red mane while his tail is straighter with a little ball at the top.Eye Color: Light Green.Cutie Mark: A red, exploding Firework with golden sparks shooting out of it. [ ]Physique: A little taller & skinny, he isn't that strong but makes up for it with speed with his long legs.Origin: Born & raised in Cloudsdale.Occupation: Makes & sells Fireworks/Firecrackers. Since he doesn't have a business he sets up a small area in town market place's & sells a few.Motivation: To make his parents proud by owning a Firecracker/Firework business someday.-Character Summary:History: Firework had an uneventful & happy childhood, he enjoyed jumping from cloud to cloud then falling off those clouds when he got distracted by things such as bees; needless to say he was injured a lot.Parents: His parents were Firework/Firecracker makers who, while good at their job, could sadly never make enough money for their own business. They usually made them for family gatherings or other small events.Cutie Mark Story: While he'd watched his parents make Fireworks/Firecrackers from an early age with enthusiasm it wasn't until he got a little older that he started to pay attention & really memorize everything they did. This was put to the test after his Father fell ill & his Mother had to leave town on emergency just before an event; of course they were going to cancel it however, Firework took it upon himself to make as many Fireworks & Firecrackers as he could by himself. Tirelessly, he worked for hours upon hours using what he knew. At first he failed miserably, every time he went to light them they exploded in his face, but he never gave up & finally when he succeeded Firework got his mark. It was then that Firework knew what he wanted to do; make Fireworks & Firecrackers for a living & own his own business. To him it's a badge of honor, it shows how hard he's worked for his family.Personality: Firework is a fun-loving colt who is very friendly to a fault, he easily trusts anyone he meets & considers them a friend right off the bat. He is loyal, protective, & giving to them as well. Despite his name it's rare for Firework to become angry, usually he is quite care free, tending to let things side off his shoulders. It seems the only way to get him to rage is hurting one of his friends or doing some criminal activity.Faults: Though still easily distracted & way to trusting, a major fault of Firework is his tendency to worry even over the smallest things. When it's at it's worse it leaves him inactive, he'll just crawl into bed & cry about whatever's bothering him. His biggest fears is letting his family down.

MyLittlePonyTales Posted February 8, 2012 Report Share Posted February 8, 2012 Hm... looks like we already have a character named Firecracker. You'll need to change your characters name or add something to it to make it unique.Also, you can remove [Pegasus] from the title because the topic tag is there.

TheUmbrella Posted February 8, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 8, 2012 I did not see that, I apologize! It's all edited now.And yes, it took me two days to finish this up. I started working on him just before I came here, I went back and forth, forth and back through the rules, maps, everything for this Role Play forum.

Thrylos Posted February 9, 2012 Report Share Posted February 9, 2012 I put lots of work into all my role-plays, but for me I sometimes enjoy a break, even a short one.Firework's story is very moving, and I love the way you describe him. Keep on keepin' on! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bramble Rose Posted February 9, 2012 Report Share Posted February 9, 2012 I quite like the character, and he has a nice backstory. I love that his goal is to be a pride to his family - always a very worthwhile thing.One lack I'd mention is that, obviously, Firecracker has a very feminine appearance, right down to you using a very feminine muzzle structure and bone structure on him. But you didn't mention that anywhere in your description. How has this affected him and his goals? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheUmbrella Posted February 9, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 9, 2012 I had assumed that no one saw him differently & that it didn't matter in the slightest. Yes, he's often mistaken as a Filly but doesn't let it bother him. Like you said, his biggest motivation is his family so, why then should his appearance matter? That's just how he was born.I'm sorry but that's just my view on it. If you want me to change it, I will; no one is wrong or right here. I do see your point, I just wanted to get mine in as well.No hard feelings!> u < Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Apolline Allura Posted February 9, 2012 Report Share Posted February 9, 2012 Firework seller eh? http://www.canterlot.com/topic/3951-blaze-bright-final/Great minds think alike. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bramble Rose Posted February 9, 2012 Report Share Posted February 9, 2012 Nah, no hard feelings at all! I wasn't telling you to change it, it just felt rather like an elephant in the room that wasn't being addressed. But if your whole point of designing him that way is that it *shouldn't* make a difference, I can see why you deliberately didn't mention it.

TheUmbrella Posted February 9, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 9, 2012 That's exactly why I didn't say anything, it doesn't matter how he looks because in his mind he doesn't care either. ^ u ^Oh, aww. Yours is adorable Oatmeal!A-also, sorry for the late reply; I had to go out for a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brianblackberry Posted February 10, 2012 Report Share Posted February 10, 2012 Looking good so far, the only thing I must request before it can be assessed is that you make the text left justified instead of centered. Right now it is difficult for people to read. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheUmbrella Posted February 10, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 10, 2012 Stupid question; can I RP now or does this need further acceptance? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bramble Rose Posted February 10, 2012 Report Share Posted February 10, 2012 It needs final acceptance. Several mods have to approve it before it gets accepted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
