Planning and Discussion

So we doing this or waiting for more people?

//Not sure if this story will get off the ground but lets give this a go, worth the risk if its a good story. Name: Pinprick Race: Unicorn Sex: Female Age: Late 20s...no set number Occupation: Street level Criminal. Works as a enforcer to ruff up ponies for bits. Appearance: Light green coat with darker green hair. Attached a outline so just imagine the colors. Cutie Mark: Bullseye target in front of a throwing knife Personality: Street smart with a good head to read ponies even if she doesnt read actual books. A simple pony who is content with the pursuit of earthly pleasures. Snippy and bold, she has built up a tough persona which has gradually just become her actual self. By default relies on herself for everything she needs but is happy to have others help as long as they dont expect much in return. Background: A troubled kid from a early age she never felt very sure about her place in the world. Her parents tried to help but with no serious health effects and with no other problems then something all ponies go through they thought that giving her some space and not treating her like something was wrong was the best approach. This worked for the most part until her mother left. The blow hit the whole family hard and Pinprick took off to try and figure things out herself. She found herself in Fillidelphia and quickly began hanging out with the wrong crowd. Pick pocketing turned to muggings which turned to robberies and with her clique feeding off each other and luck going their way they became more emboldened. Eventually they all had to grow up and while a lot of them stayed in the underground scene they did eventually lose that magic spark that holds friends together. Pinprick found herself taking pay gigs as a enforcer thanks to her skills with throwing knives that she use to practice in her teenage years.

I have done my fair share of Pathfinders but that works best in a tight session setting where everyone is in sync and information about the rules, other player ideas, and combat strategy can be quickly transferred without slowing down the game. On a forum where everyone is on their own schedule I say keep it simple. Defiantly be able and willing to talk to players in order to get them on the same page as everyone else. As long as you have disciplined rpers you should be good. Im all for having some form of random check, say roll a certain die and screenshot the result, but overall the less numbers you have to keep track of the better.

For centuries, Equestria has stood as one of the most prosperous nations in the known world. In spite of the hardships that threatened to break the nation apart long ago, ponykind has managed to band together to form a strong nation under the joint rule of the cosmic Princesses. That is not, however, to say that the nation has had its fair share of threats. History has told us of Nightmare Moon, of Discord and Tirek, of the mad Storm King and his legion. History has told us of the once-great changeling swarm, of the proud dragons, of the nomadic zebras and stubborn yaks. For the past few years, a group of six friends have stood as Equestria's greatest heroes. Time after time they have been called upon to quiet threats of dissent, of the deconstruction of harmony, to combat threats to the crown, and to defend friendships. While historians may argue that the last point may be somewhat out there compared to the gravity of the other three, it is truthfully the most important of them all, as without the magic of friendship and harmony, it is believed that Equestria could have been lost to the frozen wastes before its founding. But what of the rest of Equestria? Yes, everypony knows of the adventures of Twilight Sparkle, her friends, and the Elements of Harmony. But theirs are not the only stories to be told. Legends of Equestria is a roleplay that takes place during the events of FiM, rather than as a continuation. My intent is for this page to be something of a hub for multiple roleplays, all of which take place in different locations within Equestria (the idea behind this is trying to mitigate any sort of contrivance for why ponies would be in a specific location or would be friends with other ponies). Establish your own OC, take them on adventures in a certain location or neighboring areas. Use the variable location as an excuse to experiment with new character ideas. Go on daring adventures, or solve interpersonal relations at home. Be creative. Most importantly, what matters is that you all have fun. Legends of Equestria is meant to accommodate players looking for any sort of play, so if you're worried that your character may be too violent or stay-at-home for the available adventures, you don't have to worry, because there's a good chance there'll be a play coming soon just for you.
