Quote from: Julien999 on 2018 Apr 06, 01:39:31That reminds me, Maple's robot did mention that Maple is one of the VIPs... Is everyone who woke up without much memory of boarding the ship are really all VIPs?

from what i understand, yes.  All the ponies who originally woke up on the Solar Arrow were the cryosleep ponies meant for rebooting the Equestrian race.

Quote from: FakeSmile on 2018 Apr 05, 22:30:41We need to make sure we don't contradict each other when adding ideas. Also, anything that involves what happened to the Solar Arrow is gonna heavily impact the RP when the characters find out. With that said, we all need to agree on additional information that regards what happened before the VIPs woke up

yeye

Quote from: Onyx Quill on 2018 Apr 05, 22:02:16I mentioned VIPs in stasis aboard the Meadowbrook way back in one of my first posts, but Onyx wouldn't reveal that to anyone yet.

oh ^^;

idk how I missed that XD

maybe the cryosleep ponies were all spread out across the different ships or something?  So then if one got attacked you wouldn't lose all the VIPs.

oh, okie ^^; my bad Lol.  Thanks ^^;;;

Quote from: Onyx Quill on 2018 Apr 05, 17:57:40The Attack on our fleet that separated the Arrow from us was not random. It was no accident that the Arrow, out of all the ships present, was taken. 
The aliens that attacked us wanted that ship for as-yet unknown reasons. My theory is that they wanted the VIPs they falsely thought were aboard the Arrow. Twenty-five ponies who will be critical to rebuilding our society. They're not aboard the Arrow. In fact, they're on the Meadowbrook. They're the reason I need to be on that ship. All part of some plan high command came up with to misdirect our enemies.  I'm acting on their orders. They knew *someone* was stalking us, even before the attack.


@Onyx Quill for future reference, please discuss things like this with everyone before putting them in your posts.  The canon for the RP up until now was that the ponies stored in cryosleep for rebooting the Equestrian race were onboard the Solar Arrow.  All of our OCs woke up from said cryosleep (with the exception of like, 2 or 3), so adding this in pretty much breaks the canon.

The secret library room is Celestia's personal study ^^; it was actually mentioned early in the RP, and a few times in Smiley's posts.  That sounds like a neat idea btw Julien ^^

Quote from: FakeSmile on 2018 Apr 01, 15:22:42I picked it up from Sparkle ^^;;

Muahahaha, Just as I planned.... ovO (jk xD)

Quote from: Onyx Quill on 2018 Apr 01, 14:53:56They're escaping from a wormhole-based attack. Might be how the Solar Arrow got separated from the fleet before, maybe. This time, Onyx knew what to look for.

For future reference, please run ideas like this by everyone before putting them into action ^^; larger events like that are difficult to respond to if no one is given notice that it's going to happen, especially if others were in the middle of their own story things when it happens.

no problem ^^ sorry about that ^^;;;;

Hi y'all.

F1r3w0rks has just informed me that he will be taking a hiatus from this RP.  Due to the stress from college, work and life things, he hasn't had much time or motivation to post.  He has handed control of Keldeo back over to me, so I'll be RPing as Keldeo again for the time being.  Sorry about any inconvenience! ^^;

Quote from: Onyx Quill on 2018 Mar 12, 13:45:37"Yeah, I'm fine. Thank you. Are you going to the Unicorn school? That's where I'm headed. I mean, I know I'm an Earth Pony, but a friend of my dad is doing a lecture there about the Great War today."

 *He smiles pleasantly at Sparkle, and starts trotting toward the school*

 "By the way, my name's Star Tracker. Nice to meet you."



"Actually, yeah, that's exactly where I was headed!"  Sparkle said with a smile, following the earth pony as he began to walk off.  Upon the stallion introducing himself, she offered a polite nod.  "Nice to meet you too!  My name's Sparkle Chord!"  She said, her smile bright as ever.  Her first day in the city, and she had already made a new friend!  How exciting!

Quote from: Onyx Quill on 2018 Mar 11, 23:14:32*Off on a side street, a young stallion wanders toward the same destination. He walks slowly, but with purpose. He knows the way, but isn't in a hurry to get there, as his thoughts are all over the place. He thinks back to his vacation. The cruise where he met two Princesses. One of the most memorable times of his young life. He's so wrapped up in his thoughts that he doesn't see the young unicorn mare in front of him until he's nearly on top of her. He lets out a gasp and skids to a quick halt. Nearly bumping into @SparkleChord *

 "Oh! I'm sorry miss! I almost ran into you!"

Rather startled by the almost-collision with an unknown stallion, Sparkle nearly fell over anyhow, even though she never actually collided with anyone.  Regaining her balance, she turned toward the pony who had almost walked over her with an apologetic look. 

"No no, it's fine!  That was totally my fault!  I should've been paying more attention..."  She said, smiling sheepishly.  "Are you alright?"

((thanks ^^))

Spoiler: character app • show
Name: Sparkle Chord
Race: Unicorn
Gender: Female
Age: 17
Talent: Singing
Personality: Optimistic, Trusting, Charismatic, Pure-hearted, Caring, Determined, Enthusiastic, Oblivious, Hasty, Naive, Slow Learner, Insecure, Sensitive, Easily Lost
Occupation: Student/Freelance singer
Misc: Originally from Manehattan.  Came to Canterlot to study magic.  Shorter than average, likes strawberries.


Somewhere on the outskirts of the city, a train from Manehattan pulls into the station, as many ponies file out of it's cars.  Among these ponies was a young mare by the name of Sparkle Chord, who was visiting Canterlot for the first time.  As the young mare stepped off the train and followed the crowd into the city's gates, she took a deep breath.  This was it.  Her first day away from home.  After 17 years of living in Manehattan with her parents, she was finally heading out to see the world.  Taking in the sights of the sparkling city, Sparkle marveled at the pristine white buildings and golden spires of Equestria's capital.  The whole place gave off a regal aura, filling the mare with a sense of excitement.  Taking a moment to search through her saddlebags, Sparkle pulled out a map and quickly examined it.  Assuming she was reading this thing right, her destination was on the other side of town.  Letting out a sigh, she began walking in the direction of the magic school she was supposed to attend.  The walk would be a long one, but with every step her heart grew lighter, the excitement of attending a school specially for magic building within her quickly.

I think there's been a bit of confusion ^^;

I could be wrong, but from Onyx's post, it seemed like Selle wasn't aware of the presence of Sparkle and Nightlight, which would imply she's in a different room, since she literally would have to have walked over Sparkle to get to the freezer, since she was standing in the doorway.  Though it's impossible to reach the freezer without going through the kitchen, so either Onyx made an error or we did ^^;

sorry about that ^^;

@Nightshade Star

Nightlight and Sparkle are in the kitchen, outside the freezer.  Opal is completely silent, so there's no way Night could know she's there.

(apologies for the double post x3)

We do already have a layout for the ship planned, but if it's important you could check with @ScarletInk

Gosh, I really should check this thread more often o.o

Glad to see so many people are interested in the subject ^^ for awhile I thought I was the only one curious about this kinda thing ^^;  I actually ended up writing a short essay type thing on DeviantArt about unicorn magic based on a random idea I had one night xD if y'all are interested you can check it out here:

Average Unicorn Magic discussion

TL;DR I came to pretty much the same conclusion you guys did xD my guess is that unicorns could probably learn as many spells as they want, but their power level is what either enables or prevents them from performing spells.  The rest relies on the individual's desire to actually learn the spells.  The article has a lot more detail :P

Quote from: Nightshade Star on 2018 Jan 14, 20:00:47But how am I gonna jump in?? I'll need advice for that.

well, for starters you might want to fill out the sign up sheet ^^;

other than that, i'm pretty sure Onyx's ship is still docked on the Solar Arrow (our ship), so you could probably just walk in from the other ship xD i'd recommend checking with Scarlet and Onyx on that though ^^;
