Welcome to the "Apollo Straight" - A classy and mellow place for all the experts and celebs to enjoy some freshly squeezed fruits and mingle with others with over-achieving accolades. All sorts of outstanding individuals come here to unwind and chat to others who do well in their chosen field, or their marvels. Entertainers, athletes, scholars, inventors and bench-markers. Raising record money for charities, pushing society into a new age, and shocking Equestrians are just some of the things these individuals and groups have done in the motivation of excellence. For selfish or wholehearted reasons - The ones who flock here are known as PEPSK.

PEPSK - "Ponies.Every.Pony.Should.Know. (Sometimes "Ponies" is replaced with "Pros" or "Pronies" due to racial inclusion or for slang/boasting.)

If you are in the news and keep on proving your greatness, you are part of this group. If you are an individual with a rare talent to "wow," you are here with the others. Get to know your fellow creatures and share your experiences!
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This is a Free-to-roam RP, so you can drop-in and drop-out with each visit and chat to all types. Please keep it within the forum and RP rules, but enjoy just hanging out with other OCs. Keep it civil, but fun!

The catch is I will throw in "World Events" that may effect the PEPSK group, or at least give the characters something to talk about - Upcoming shows, scandals and national reports. I may start up an OOC thread to post if popular enough, but the "World Events" are open to suggestions if you let me know first.
For now, let your OC walk the red carpet and into the clubhouse to introduce themselves and grab a beverage/meal. Nuts, berries and rich Raspberry juice is always available, or order something from the bar!

As the doors swing open and bright lights welcomes the entrees, another day starts for the "Apollo Straights" and Taking the keys out of the door is Act One. He has seen ponies and other species come-and-go in this establishment, but wonders who else is going to visit? Will Filthy Rich flaunt his case of money? Will Fancy Pants and Fleur Dis Lee bring a new flower to bloom in the club's radiance?
As his mind starts to build on these possible developments, Act heads back to the main room and orders a "Chateu Un" Blueberry juice in a small glass to sip on. Reading to newspaper that the attendant usually picks up for the guests to read, he notices that Cloudsdale will host the next major athletics games in 15 months and how air-travel (Balloons and sky-carriages) have had a 5% increase in price.

"Looks like they're anticipating a big haul from the event in Cloudsdale I'm guessing. Typical state affairs..."
He pops the paper back onto the table and just takes a drink from the glass.

Okay, so this is the start of my RP questing in LOE forums, so I need to make my OCs. I'll start off simple and play as someone similar to myself (but act accordingly to the profile given and the game situation.) May add more if I wish to interact differently (like a complete villain or something OOC from my own personality).

1. Character Gender & Race - Stalion, Earth Pony
2. Character Personality & Statistics/Status - Quiet loner (but not antisocial), enthusiastic, hard-working.
3. Character Talent - Jack-of-all-trades, but master of none. Leans more to his artistic side.
4. Character Appearance - Very light slate grey hair, long brown mane (purple highlights), one side covers one of his blue eyes - the other pushed behind the ear and curls onto the shoulder. Smaller frame than most Stallions. Tail is brown and twirls with messy strands between the curls. A cutie mark of the number one (purple with black outline), with the word "ACT" scrolled down in white within the number.
5. Character Name - Act One
6. Character Bio
This pony has been looking for a sense of certainty in his life, and never lived up to expectations of others, including family. Trying many specific jobs, it just never worked out for him. Wasn't bulky or over-empowering to be in a place of authority or a civil job. Couldn't make complex formulae to create marvellous feats of magic and science. Couldn't take the pressure of having life literally in hoof for surgery.

Through these trails, he has been able to pick up useful everyday skills and knowledge. General housekeeping, labour, exercise and social skills. He is able to look after himself and knows basics of first-aid, DIY to an acceptable standard and teamwork when times of need calls for it. Although of a quiet nature, he can talk to ponies and hang with them, but there are always new ponies to meet with and old ones who forget and are forgotten. Life goes on.
But his mind can be sharp - with the right inspiration, he can communicate in his own way of colour and design. Pieces of form built in his vision and drawn onto paper, scrolls or any bric-a-brac that is available. With this mindset, he pushes himself to do the unusual of himself and of others. Calls stallions, mares and fillies around to spread their own individuality and experiences in a fun and inspiring manner. However, this is rare and can be misunderstood - possible considered a failure to others' standards but he learns something new.

Hello, greetings and buenos dias. It is my pleasure (and indeed to YOUR astonishment) that I, Act One, have grace the LOE community with a welcoming performance!

It is true that I only need one act for others to follow, as I do not step on another's hoof-print. However, it is not my role here to enslave the minds in doing my own bidding... I only want ponies and bronies/pegisisters to be able to do one thing: "Act Out!" It is, therefore, encouraged by me to promote fellow members to do something for themselves, experiencing or sharing unique talents/situations/opinions.

But before I venture to my quests, allow me to tell you just who the -  >:O - I am:
I am an amateur artist, a grand warrior, an actor, an adventurer, a cook, a cleaner, a non-believer, a colt of personality, a dreamer, a workhorse, a downer, and the dramatical fool. Zombies loose their heads to me, and leaders don't coerce with me, for the populous just don't know me as the way I am. But all come to change, as we venture to the strange - but remembering all: for Friendship to be Magic, you must be the one to "Act Out" first.

So from "The Act-ual One" to you all, I bid you adieu, until we meet again.
