Description
Welcome to the community-hosted event, "Upon the Ashes of Rainbow Apocalypse". Users may start by making a character sheet via the Friendship Letter (hereafter referred as blogs) section of this page. Liking the page is optional but encouraged.
There will also be an art raffle. 4 participants stand the chance of winning art in the form of a comic book cover starring their character!
For more information regarding this and other subjects, please check out the blogs marked with the "official ra" topic.
____________________________________________
Set in an alternate universe where meteors had peppered the surface of Earth. Had it not been for the combined powers of The Sun, The Moon, The Elements of Harmony, and the magic inherent to the land itself, all would surely be lost. But these meteors of unknown origin (space, duh) seemingly manipulated, and bastardized the very magic used against them, dispersing it across the planet and unto its inhabitants. Magic, and with it, the world was never the same again.
"It has been over two centuries since the heavens opened to rain colors and death, and everyone thought the worst had long passed. Now, as the winds of change begins to blow, history may yet threaten to repeat itself..."

This event aims to bring users together and show off their creativity, and ability to bring their characters to life under a common theme: comic books. More than one setting has been provided so users don't feel too restricted to let their imaginations loose.
Be a night-borne vigilante, or a noir-esque detective in a megacity that embraced Art Deco, yet is closing in a cyber-augmented age at a dangerous rate. Neo-Manehattan* is a land of opportunity, of both good and bad. Unless you're born a defective mutant in the Outskirts, then its all downhill from there bud.
How about a wrench-head? Tightening bolts as large as hooves, and knocking gears back into place so the airship doesn't stall and crash into the others? They may have followed a different path of technology, but it doesn't stop the (mainly) gryphons of Gazlitt from filling the skies with steampunk ingenuity.
Feel like sticking closer to normal pony magics, or turning it up to 12? Ardania beckons for those who would better the kingdom. Name ripped straight out of Majesty, adventure awaits only those truly prepared to face the outside, for the land is as familiar as a fish is to outer space. Head North for a hail tornado, or head south to lose your senses to subjects foreign to comprehension, the monarchy seeks scholars as they do fearless adventurers.

Quick FAQ:
What are Friendship Letter (Blogs) for?
Blogs are for writing down one's own character's story, or comic issues to put it another way. This is where one may further their character arc, and maybe even use what they gained via roleplays in Discussion as inspiration.
Where do I go if I want to roleplay
The Discussion page is where one goes to engage in roleplay. The author starts a topic, and other participants may join if they want to. Something to note: the author has power to not engage with multiple participants, should they choose it. Please refrain from flaming them, as the forum user experience isn't the best when too many hands stir the pot.
When does the event end?
The event ends on the 31st of August at 11:59 p.m. (timezone to be determined later).
What can I do during this event besides roleplay?
This is a story and roleplay focused event, hosted within a roleplaying website. Not many functions exist aside from ones that cater to those activities. That being said, participants may share their own pieces of media (pictures, music etc.) via the main wall, should they want to.
