Cage Blackpaw Posted January 4, 2013 Share Posted January 4, 2013 Hey, guys! This is, obviously enough, the out-of-character page for The Darkness Returns. Immediately below is the little intro, in case anyone wants to read it over or whatnot: Long ago, it was prophesied that the Mare in the Moon would one day return and cast Equestria into a never-ending night. As time went on, many ponies made the tale out to be just that--a pony tale. Many others, meanwhile, simply forgot about its existence. One unicorn, however, saw the signs the prophecy foretold and prepared herself. Twilight Sparkle, with the help of her friends Applejack, Rarity, Rainbow Dash, Pinkie Pie, and Fluttershy, defeated the Mare in the Moon--Nightmare Moon--and brought their beloved home of Equestria back into the sunlight. But not all was well. Twilight Sparkle was not the only one who remembered the story and took it for what it was: a tale of warning. A tale of things to come. Other ponies anticipated the moment, eagerly awaiting the arrival of eternal night and their new, dark princess, but their lifelong waiting ended abruptly and fruitlessly as the six friends saved the day. For a time after Princess Luna was reunited with her sister, all in Equestria was as it should have been, ordinary and peaceful. Then, out of nowhere, strange things began happening, particularly with the insolation: some nights seemed to stretch on longer than usual, and the following days would be shorter in turn. Beyond that, bad luck seemed to strike even the luckiest of ponies, results ranging from a simple stumble on the ground or a burnt pastry to a sudden crash of a pegasus just moments earlier in flight. Princess Celestia quickly caught word of such curious goings on. At first skeptical, she took no immediate action, though as the events continued she had no choice. The princess sent out a proclamation, calling for ponies willing and able to investigate the situation to meet at the Canterlot Castle for a briefing. Who would answer the princess' call? Okay, as far as I recall, this is what we have so far. Arashikage -- Rainbow Dash, Twilight Sparkle (and Spike) Fedora -- Pinkie Pie, Fluttershy Lord Shen -- Rarity tupelocase -- Applejack If you'd like to take another pony, Mane 6 or OC, now's the time. While I don't necessarily need huge or really detailed posts, please refrain from only posting one-liners (they certainly have their place, but they're not something to work with the entire way through). I'm mostly hoping for maturity and thinking and the like. Also, at this time I'd like to say that this is my first time hosting a roleplay, so I'm not entirely sure what to expect, but I've planned out some things. Essentially, you'll want to stick together in this roleplay, and know that certain decisions/capabilities have certain consequences that may ultimately affect the outcome. Once we've decided we've discussed enough, I'll create the roleplaying topic itself and we can begin! Here it is! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tupelocase Posted January 4, 2013 Share Posted January 4, 2013 Looks like a pretty good RP world! I'll take Applejack so as to compliment Lord Shen's sudden affection towards Rarity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tupelocase Posted January 4, 2013 Share Posted January 4, 2013 Okay, but you have to tell me who or what that is in your signature. XD All I know is it's from some Japanese DS commercial and that it's one of the greatest things ever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cage Blackpaw Posted January 6, 2013 Author Share Posted January 6, 2013 Ahh, I love that person's videos. They can really capture the characters. But yes, good! All we need now is an OK from Fedora and then I'll make the roleplaying topic! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fedora Posted January 7, 2013 Share Posted January 7, 2013 Wow oh wow. I'll be honest and say that I didn't expect this to get anywhere. I'm estatic to say that I'm glad I was so wrong. Anywho, I guess I'm set. I would like to add an OC if that's till on the table. My OC, Foolin'. If that a non-option, that's OK. .... Holy Shit. I'm about to RP Ponies. ...Ah who am I kidding? I'm OK with this. Just make sure to tell me if my fourth wall bashing becomes egregious. I'm used to tapping it more than taking a Party Cannon to it.

And I'll probably be making the topic tonight, but could you tell me here what type he is (earth, pegasus, unicorn)? And while this is going to be a more serious roleplay than how MLP is according to the show, I can't take away all of Pinkie's spastic powers. I only ask (until I decide I need to ask more ) that you don't godmod with them lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arashikage Posted January 7, 2013 Share Posted January 7, 2013 So we don't have a Twilight, I could play Twilight if you want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cage Blackpaw Posted January 7, 2013 Author Share Posted January 7, 2013 Allllrighty, Twilight's now taken! So all that's left of the main six is Fluttershy, I believe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fedora Posted January 7, 2013 Share Posted January 7, 2013 Foolin' Earth Pony Stallion Green Coat, Black Mane. Purple highlights. Wears a vest and fedora. Cutie Mark: Joker card with a jester cap inside of it. Runs a comedy club and will even get on the mike every so often, However, his performances are less than legendary. Just info on mah OC. ZE EDITS: In the interest of keeping the Mane Six together, I have decided to drop playing my OC ,Foolin', to instead play Fluttershy since no one else has come forth.

Cage Blackpaw Posted January 7, 2013 Author Share Posted January 7, 2013 Thank you, Fedora! Also, here's the roleplay: Get in there, everyone! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arashikage Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 Oh so in addition, I will also be playing Twilight's number 1 assistant Spike, he'll have a minor role, but will be with them the whole time because Spike never leaves her side, it's just out of character.

Cage Blackpaw Posted February 15, 2013 Author Share Posted February 15, 2013 Hey everyone! So I know that up to this point we've been using a sort of turn basis in regards to posting in the roleplay. We're coming to the point in the roleplay where things begin to...begin, so I think we can have more freedom (allowing for small conversations and whatnot). However, of course, I'd still like for everyone to have their say. The best way to secure that is to keep watch of the roleplay! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tupelocase Posted February 24, 2013 Share Posted February 24, 2013 Hey. Hey guys. Hey. The RP has TWO PAGES NOW WOOT! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cage Blackpaw Posted February 24, 2013 Author Share Posted February 24, 2013 Two pages! Whoo! Good work, everyponyone. So I took the liberty to move everyone into the room for their briefing, considering no one was jumping to post in the meantime. Now, though, it's one of those times where we've gotta have everyone offer an OK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arashikage Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 Sorry, guys, I'll be more active soon, I just had a lot happen this weekend, what with schoolwork, then I had a car accident I need to take care of. I'll try to make more of an effort, but give me a day or two to post. I'll be there, don't worry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
