Canterlot Archives / Atala, the lost city
2014 Jun 09, 02:32:03
And thus an expedition of was created. An expedition that consists of all the allied species. Half civilian and half military. The chosen leader of the expedition is a civilian, but from a military background, a compromise that both sectors agreed on. The expedition was fifty individuals large, and they had to take with them as much as possible, chances are they are not coming back.

The expedition stands in front of the portal to the unknown and dr. Blue Star, the leader of the expedition, steps fourth for a motivation speech. "Alright everyone, i'll try to make it short. None of us would be standing here now if we weren't absolutely sure we wanted to go. What lies on the other side? What became of Atala? Are the legends even true? Will we ever return? Those are some of the questions that i am sure every one of us has on their mind. And today, after Celestia know how many generations, we stand united once more, ponies, griffons, zebras and even changelings. We will find the answers together." with the final sentence the portal activated. A water like substance filled the empty space of the portal, making it look like a mirror. Blue took a deep breath and walked through, as she did a ripple spread through the supposed liquid. Others looked at each other, but gathered theirs courage and followed. This is your final chance to change your mind, will you?


---The other side---
Darkness surround everything as the final member exits the portal and it shuts down. The air was dense, hard to breathe, and it was hot. Seconds pass and the first beams of light illuminated the surroundings, light from flashlight and unicorn horns was the source of said illumination. The expedition could see a large and mostly hexagon room. Other thing of note was that some members of the expedition were injured, some unconscious even. The eery silence was broken by Blue's voice. "Nurse?" She looked at one of the nurses, the nurse looked back and both nodded. What followed was the medical staff tending to every member of the expedition.

This is doctor Blue Star, leader of the expedition. I found a small notebook in my room, so i decided to log everything major that happens, and i'm aware of the old fashion way. We arrived to the city about a week ago, and already we have our first crisis done. The city was under water, and started to flood, and the city's AI systems were acting weird. I was given by the AI, they are called Avatars, a bracelet/horseshoe thing, when i put it on it connected me to the core, we call him Grumpy. Thanks to this, Cosmos, Tundra, and others, we were able to detect the problem, delete it, and safely get the city above the sea. A little too much for our first adventure here, if you ask me.

Spoiler: Entry Two • show
We were to the landmass and discovered something like a pyramid with a maze in it. In the maze we encountered Iron Will's ugly brother. All jokes aside, the creature we encountered was truly fierce, easily destroying two of our machina. The maze and the creature reminds me of a old maretail my mother used to tell me when i was little, about naughty foals that are sent to the Catacombs to be eaten by the Minotaur. I wonder if that story has its origin here.

The RP thread is here

Premise:
A very long time ago, the world was quite different. It is said that that all the nations back then were united, and had magic and technology which we of today can only dream of. Their finest city was Atala. It was build as a capital of the old world, and many legends speak of the wonders of the city but no one knows what became of it. There were no evidence for the existence of the city, until now. On the south pole a device was found, a large empty circle, a portal, that is said to be the entrance to the city. After trying long and hard the united effort of ponies, griffons, zebras and changelings were able to figure out how to activate it. There is just one problem, it can be activated only once and is most likely a one way trip. A half military, half civilian expedition, composed of all the united creatures was prepared.

What can you expect:
Exploring ancient, yet highly evolved culture, magic and technology.
Discovering the secrets of the lost city.
Facing an unknown threat bent on making your stay at the city unpleasant.

Rules:
1. Standard forum rules
2. Only one character per player
3. Taking control of NPCs for some time is allowed, there will be a lot of NPCs. Just be sure to say when you're giving the control of the NPC away again.
4. The timeline. This takes place approximately 20 years after the S3 final. Also, please keep canon pony references to a minimum, none at best.

Ok, guys. This is a horror themed RP about isolation, looking for 1 pony player and about 4 "apparitions".

Rules for the Pony player:
Provide your character description, age and race. Races available are Earths, Unicorns and Pegasi. I want to urge those of you that will want to play the pony to be absolutely sure, because you will be the center peace of the story, the main character so to speak. You may provide a name in the sign up, but it is not necessary as your character will suffer from amnesia.

Rules for apparitions:
Nothing specific, you may be a certain entity, but you will be unable to talk to the pony player directly. Your interaction will be moving items, creating and controlling illusions, creating and controlling sounds ect. You may choose to help the pony player by these interactions, you also may do those things only to scare him.

Location:
A moderately large village by the name of Feeble Leaf. It has a town hall, a library, a hospital, a public safety station (police and fire department combined), several stores of various merchandise and a lot of residential houses. There is a single road leading to the village. The sky is clear and it is cold, not so cold you would need a coat, but cold enough to send shivers down your spine every now and then.




Application form:

Apparition
Physical Form: No or yes[describe if yes]
Method: Visual illusions, Audio illusions, Moving items, multiple [write down which], other [describe]

Opening Post.

A lone earth pony is walking up a dusty path leading to the Feeble Leaf village. He doesn't remember how he got to the path, nor his name for that matter. His memory is completely empty, nothing before him standing on the dusty path. He's slowly recovering from a certain kind of dizziness. By the light, and the position of the sun, it seems to be morning. The nearest building to the pony is a small diner, his stomach growls and his throat is dry.

The tittle tells it all, OOC stuff here.

The usual radio program suddenly got interrupted by a very urgent sounding message.

Hello? Is this thing on? ... Listen ponies, griffons, changelings, anything that can think. There's a terrible decease spreading. I don't know what it is, nor where it came from. The infected look normal, just a little too friendly. They want to hug anything that moves! I think i know how it spr... the broadcast got interrupted in this point.

The radio returned to its normal program after this. Was it a joke? Or a warning? Your only clue is the local radio station.
Proceed with caution.
