Misc. RP Information

Hello, hello!

{Out-Of-Character information}

My name is Matthew, but you can call me anything you'd like OOCly. Rarely you'll see me send messages to you first, but that's probably due to me being a shy little dude. Don't let that stop you! I'm happy to roleplay and talk as much as you'd like! But with that being said, I do have rules about what i'll talk about. Please don't ask me anything sensitive besides my name and my age! There's not much I really needed to voice in this part, I just wanted ... View More

Design Description

Glimmer is a taller-than-average Bat Pony, and larger than most ponies he knows. While not suffering a genetic defect or a cheating mother, his father was quite opposite of his build, sleek and small. His smile is bright and almost reflective, and his voice deeper but softer than some. His mane and body is soft to the touch, and he uses it occasionally as a cushion against the ground.

Likes

Blood & Cuddles

Dislikes

Sunlight, not sleeping

Detailed Personality

Glimmer tries to know the ladies, but it usually fails for him. During the morning hours, Glimmer is the most irritable. He hates waking up, but he'll eventually smile and shake his discomfort off.

Like most Bat Ponies, he hates the sun. He would rather be waterboarded than have to deal with the big Yellow ball of firey death and despair. With that being said, he can be very moody during the daylight hours.

Occupation

Royal Guard

Education

Full foal-adult education, + his combat training

Detailed History

(( Total character rework, but here's something for now <3 ))

Glimmer was born a normal Bat Pony birth, in the Hollow Shades area. His parents were normal, just middle-class workers for which he was grateful for.

As he grew, his body seemed stockier and taller than some of his other Bat Pony friends. While labeled a giant, he was gentle and useful. Growing up, he would be used as a stepping stool for his childhood friends to steal various foods and drinks from around town. While he felt just a lit...

Glimmer was born a normal Bat Pony birth, in the Hollow Shades area. His parents were normal, just middle-class workers for which he was grateful for.

As he grew, his body seemed stockier and taller than some of his other Bat Pony friends. While labeled a giant, he was gentle and useful. Growing up, he would be used as a stepping stool for his childhood friends to steal various foods and drinks from around town. While he felt just a little used for these acts, he was given quite an amount of the spoils of war against height. His nickname in his hometown was "Ladder" which was odd enough on its own, and not speaking for the rare traveler that was greeted by the warning to hide his valuables well, in case Ladder came-a-hunting for things to eat or to sell for food.

His parents disliked his acts of thievery of course, and when they heard of something going missing, he'd be the first to blame.

As his parents punished him more and more, he eventually learned, which was rare for a teenager to do in his town (or even in general!) His mindset changed, and instead of stealing, he'd more or less be a help to his community. Albeit with the fear of their fridge contents going missing as soon as they turn around, the ponies allowed him to gain their trust over time.

When Glimmer hit adulthood, he had figured out what he wanted to do with his life. He woke up one morning with the urge to join the Lunar Guard. He told his parents and they greeted him not with sadness, but with excitement!

Glimmer made his way to the Lunar Guard recruitment center in his hometown, and went through hours of paperwork, the usual! Eventually, they gave him the necessary check-ups, and he passed them all! Soon after, he was sent to a training camp and started his military career on the same day.

After a period of time in the training, he had seemed to get even taller and all the beefier. His smile, however, stayed true to his name - Glimmering like the night's stars! He showed his smile often when not being forced to do various drills and training. He was then given his uniform and qualifications, and he was taken to Canterlot for his duties.

Glimmer now works as a guard for Luna. As much as he wanted this job, he sometimes regrets it.
