Well well well, before the bad stuff happened to the forums and all olden topics lost and all that, I held an association of sorts for travelling ponies, and now the time have come to restart it, under another name: The Travellers Blessing.

This herd is a group of travellers willing to help each other out, and fellow travellers. We seek to make the roads a cosy and safe place to traverse.

Spoiler: So, first a wee background for this herd, written by the most brilliant Valentine. • show

[center]Long ago, after the twin sisters banished the evil Discord with the Elements of Harmony, Equestria was finally free to grow
and prosper as its founders had wished.  Unfortunately, the chaos that Discord wrought upon the land was great and
widespread, leaving many ponies, though free, still no better off then they were under his rule.  A group of Unicorns
from the newly founded city of Canterlot could not be at ease knowing that others suffered throughout the land.  This group
banded together to from a Blessing whos sole purpose was to go to every corner of Equestria and help their brethren where
they could.  As word spread of the great deeds of these travelling unicorns, they became known as the Travellers Blessing.

Time passed, and through the years some unicorns settled down in the towns they assisted, started new settlements of their
own, or just became too old to continue travelling.  Slowly, their numbers dwindled, and it became apparent that for the
survival of the Blessing they needed to recruit new members, and began to accept others who shared their goals, even if
they were not unicorns.

Eventually, the Travellers Blessing completed it's goal and Equestria was a land of plenty and happiness for all of it's
citizens.  It's members pleased, but not satisfied, gave themselves a new goal.  Over the ages it has been in existance, the
Travellers Blessing has been to all corners of Equestria and have seen many things.  Their new goal, to help and assist
anypony who wishes to travel the land; giving them help, safety, and comraderie.

This is how the Travellers Blessing of today came to be.

So, if you care to sign up I have a wee form to fill, note that this herd will have no real rank system as  travelling ponies are loosely organised and often far from others.

Spoiler: Lyrics by Magus • show

Far over the Canterlot Mountains tall,
To Luna's keep, Celestia's hall.
Timberwolves howl in the dark;
The dragons come to leave their mark.
The clouds turn pink,
Our spirits sink,
Equestria fell to Discord's might,
But we returned, him for to smite!

But vict'ry was tempered with mourning.
Suffering ponies, our actions scorning
Showed us the pain that Discord had left,
And though we'd won, of joy we were bereft.
For traveller's aid,
A Blessing we made.
From fair Canterlot out to the world
We travelled Equestria with banners unfurled.

And over the years our numbers grew small,
For our group unicorns alone did call.
And so at last we opened up our herd,
And in non-unicorns our group conferred.
And then once more
In days of yore,
We walked the paths Equestrian
To help the lost pedestrian.

Now, long after those dark days,
Our Watchers strong still guard the ways.
And though we finished all our founders willed,
And we the land with peace have filled
We carry on,
With every dawn,
To finish now our herd's new goal:
To help each stallion, mare and foal.

Once again we climb the mountains tall,
In triumph over Discord's fall!
Our friendships held, our honesty stood strong.
Our kindness grew; our laughter in song
A generous gift
Friends to uplift.
The Traveller's Blessing, wanderer's friend,
Equestria's roads we still defend!

Activity: (This means how active we are, right?) Pretty high. I'm on this forum almost every day, even when away from home. When the game comes out I will not be able to access it as much as I do the forum (unless it somehow runs on my phone...) but I will try to be on as much as is possible.
Planned Race: Unicorn
Reason to join: I always love having an option to explore and travel in any game that I play (this is one of the reasons Skyrim has kept me amused for so long) and exploring is pretty much exactly what I want to be doing in LoE. To have a big group of ponies to travel with really appeals to me.

Planned race: Pegasus
Reason to join: I enjoy being in a group, but not -in- the group. If we travel together, don't expect me to walk beside you. I'll keep my distance and watch from afar, thank you. However, I do enjoy traveling and seeing new land, as well as protecting my friends, and coming together with a ragtag bunch of misfits to explore dangerous territory. So I figured, why not make it official?
... Just don't expect me to talk much.

I think it's just because there is now a LoE discussion and herd subforum. There were a few guilds on the old forum but they got buried and forgotten.

Reason for joining: Normally when I play MMOs I end up never talking to anyone due to my insufferable shyness. I certainly don't want that happening with this game, so I figured it was best for me to kick my fears aside and join this herd before it was all filled up, dear Celestia I hope it's not all filled up.
     So why this herd? Well traveling good sir, traveling! It's my favorite thing to do in any game and I'd rather not do it alone.

And I can only concur, it was meant to encourage the use of guilds, but turned them into a grinding machine...

Oh, don't worry! Her wings are hidden, so she usually looks like a unicorn, and all royalty are alicorns, not just Celestia and Luna. It was a bit clear with that in the season two finale. ^-^

Well, I was talking ingame, this herd is after all for the game, and the team have clearly stated that winged unicorns are not to be playable.
I'm sorry but the restriction is not on me, but on the creators of Legends of Equestria.

When I first saw this herd, I was like <That name totally sounds like it it could be something in Morrowind. Maybe the name of an inn. I like it.> But then I read the description, and didn't really see how it fit well in the game, so passed on it. But it's getting so popular, and going back, I'm warming up to the idea (helping ponies pass through the Everfree, and escorting / party-filling on more dangerous missions... good potential). So here goes.

Activity: Mild. Three to five hours a week.
Planned race: Earth Pony.
Reason to join: I explained in the preface. Though originally an opportunity passed by, I have followed this thread due to its incessant activity, and have warmed up to the herd's mission / began to see the potential in its role. Also I just love the name.

Well, I could start one, but I will hardly manage it, this forum is too active for me to do it prober, and I have tonnes of stuff to take care of.

On a side note, remember that one may make some three characters in the game, and I would like that only one character per user in this herd.
Just for a good order, and that's why I asked for the OC name too, so that one may have other herds to join with another character.

Wait a second... as in Princess Parfait from Cucumber Quest? If so, that's fantastic. ('course if not that's cool too)

No, sorry xD It was just a username I use a lot

It's only reached a moment of inactivity. Though I must admit, I've checked this thread quite a few times to see if anything new happened, and was disappointed to see that nothing did. Herds don't serve much purpose now, and I'm sure that when the game is released the activity will come forth once again. But we should, at the very least, keep this thread alive to attract new members.

I'd like to think it has started up again. While I don't check here every day, I'm sad to see it isn't in the list of New Replies to My Posts.

So how's about we get a discussion or some-such going in here? It may be fruitless to talk about LOE-related things without any new information regarding the game, but how about other MMO's? With all the anti-hype around every tidbit of information released about The Elder Scrolls Online, some of my curiosity has been sparked about our little community (intended).

I'd be interested in gaining a better sense of how some of my herdmates like to play. Do y'all have a lot of experience with MMO's? Which have you played? Why do you play? What do you think of full-fledged RP servers and that kind of playstyle? How do you like to play? (Let's sew some threads of conversation and community.)

Personally, I've played City of Heroes (but fell from that because I was just soloing, and when I wasn't having fun, I knew I had to stop) and Phantasy Star Universe (on the XBOX, which was little more than a glorified chat room. For all it was lacking, I had fun with my little group of friends (she did it again!), and regret nothing. The voice chat definitely helped.) I tried to start Star Wars Galaxies and Final Fantasy XI, but couldn't get into either (for much the same reason of no sense of community).
I'm... tenuously watching TESO (if only because I'm a huge fan of The Elder Scrolls. I mean, just look at my avatar and tell me you remember Morrowind.)

I suppose that means I play (or am at least interested in MMO's) for community. As long as I'm doing things with others (working together), I can have fun. I've never really RP'd (even tabletop, heh...), but am quite open to the idea (if I have friends with whom to engage in such silliness). It seems to be a pretty popular interest in this community, anyway. I've always had the most fun in dungeons and whatnot, questing with friends, actively doing things, and am hoping for plenty of that in LOE (or at least more directed activity than farminggrinding or sitting and chatting).

I've been avoiding TES Online news, because I figure it's going to be 95% complaining, which may or may not be eventually justified...  >:/ I'm a TES fan too, though I've only played Oblivion and Skyrim. I can only hope that the TES MMO is at least half as hilariously buggy as its predecessors.

MMO-wise, I played WoW for about five years. My main reasons for playing were a) trying to find unusual, amusing things to do (e.g. convincing newbies that I was a NPC) and b) being in a community of cool people. I eventually quit when most of them left and the game lost its "mystique". So yeah, community's one of my main MMO interests too. Weird though it might sound, I kind of enjoy having a large ongoing game to play over a long period of time, as opposed to single-player games which I usually finish in a week or two.

I too have never really RP'd (barring that one time I went to a RP server in WoW and ran around with a character called "Feeéeeéeetus" and tried to convert people to the "holy womb") - can't say I have a whole lot of interest in it, but there is a nonzero chance that I will eventually be dragged into it here. It's ponies, after all.

I´ve played so many mmos, I played WoW for about 7 years, since the beta, and of course vanilla WoW was the best. I played Guild Wars, and i´m going to buy GW2, I played city of heroes and villians. Warhammer age of reckoning, which i think were better than WoW, but none of my friends played it, so i went back to WoW.

I were in guilds in all of these games, but I hope that herds in LOE are nothing like that, saying ding everytime you level up and things like that, and saying grats on achievments.

About TESO, I wonder how they´re gonna pull it off, since all the other Elder scrolls games were singleplayer, I think they´re going to have a hard time making it into a online game, and all the fans of the other Elder scrolls games are probably going to flame it, I´ve played Morrowind, oblivion and skyrim, and those are the best rpgs i´ve played, personally I don´t want any people bothering me while I play, I play games in my own way, but i´m not going to judge it until I play it myself.

Post by: Travius Trott on 2012 May 29, 05:56:46
Oh, on the topic of MMOs, I've tried quite the few, most noteworthy for me I would say is WoW and Mabinogi.
The former is mostly because it was a way for my family to have some fun together, yes my parents play it, both in very high levels, I left it mostly because it seemed to me that everything in the gave was centred around your level. One could not become a mater blacksmith without being in level 85 too, annoyed me to no end that it was all about how epic you were, and always there would be some that are way stronger than you.
Heck, it even infected the guild system, and most, if not all, guilds are now another way to grind to get the highest level, and one have to be lvl 85 to get be able to level the guild up prober.
Pardon that rant about levels, I'm just not fond of it being central to everything in a game.

As for Mabinogi, I really like it's skill system, and combat system, though I admit combat is fairly hard, especially with high latency. But also you can still play it without hurting anything ingame, which is a thing I really hope that LoE will have too, I mean really, a pony killing something in blood-lust, something I hope not all will do.
Back to Mab, the reason I rarely play it any-more is because it's clearly too hard to manage by those that have the rights to it, as there are a huge list of errors that only the management and support staff could fix, even the EU servers were closed down because they had somehow failed to update them prober when they upgraded the generation. So, no new cards to new players, until they closed it down.

As for TESO, I will try it when it's complete, and I do hope it will be grand.
But as Daswed said, they have as of yet only made singleplayer games, so I'm mighty curious to see if they manage to do it right, or completely wrong.

Also, LoE will be the first where I will try to be social, all other games I've only played with friends.
This herd was also something to kick it up with,  me being social.

Well let's see... How about we talk about our main interests / hobbies? I don't know. I can't think of longevous topics. It's up to us to keep them going by asking questions and elucidating and telling stories and relating anecdotes and making arguments and analysing points of view and I'm getting away from myself.

For me it's music. I'm an instrumentalist, though I also enjoy singing. I play soprano and bass clarinet and bassoon primarily, as well as tenor sax, flute, and I'm working on trumpet and ukulele. I intend to start practicing jazz improvisation this summer. Any suggestions?
Title: Re: [Herd] Travellers Blessing.
Post by: PrincessParfait on 2012 May 30, 04:26:42
That's really cool! I always admired people who could play a bunch of instruments 'cause I can't so I don't think you'd want my suggestions.  :P I always wanted to learn to play the piano.

I guess Mine would be drawing and animating x3 And I'm a messy painter as well. There's something so relaxing about mixing paint and coloring on a blank canvas and just paint whatever I want. Makes me happy. Lately I've been learning watercolors <3 Sculpting stuff is fun too.
Traveling is another of my interests too.
Title: Re: [Herd] Travellers Blessing.
Post by: Travius Trott on 2012 May 30, 06:31:06
Music eh?
I've never learned to play anything, though I love listing to instrumentals, especially string based music hits a soft spot in me, organs too.
Have recently taken to like brass instruments.

As for me, I'm also into drawing, though never learned to paint prober, and stick to paper, pencil, and digital arts. Mostly pony as of late, but have started going back to animeish or mangaish style. But I have sporadic outbursts of art, and sometimes I can not even start drawing because of a lack of inspiration.

I also love learning about cultures, mostly far eastern, such as Chinese and Japanese. Which have also given me a love for travelling, it's not for nothing that Travius is a travelling pony.
Title: Re: [Herd] Travellers Blessing.
Post by: daswed on 2012 May 30, 07:17:32
I´ve never learned to play a instrument, but I was once told that I was a great singer. I just like listening to music, and I´ll listen to anything, from classical to death metal. When it comes to drawing i´m probably the worst there is, I can´t draw at all.

One thing I think i´m good at is writing, I never write fanfics or anything like that, but if I find something that I like, I can write so much about it.

Another thing we can talk about is where everypony lives, I live in Sweden.
Title: Re: [Herd] Travellers Blessing.
Post by: Sotha on 2012 May 30, 11:41:05
I listen to a lot of classical and jazz and a whole bunch of other stuff including Splashdown, Queen, Planet X, Radio Head, Porcupine Tree, etc. Like downtempo and trip hop.

I can't really do piano either. I mean, I have a good understanding of chord structure, at least (with a little bit of theory), but as a solely wind player, I can't really look at music with the perspective piano players need to have (from my understanding), what with having more than one voice at a time, playing the overall flow of the song. It's something I need to work on.

I've never really been able to draw, though. The most I could do was construct abstract patterns. I started trying to sketch ponies, but it fell out of my interest. So eh. It's cool that you two enjoy it, though. Did you do your own avatars, by any chance? (this is to Travius and Parfait)

I much prefer game design. No, not programming (though I intend to start working on that too... someday). I mean traditional games. Abstract strategy board games, playing card games, CCG's (at least that style), table top strategy war games, themed board games, etc.

I like to express myself via design. Which somehow poetry fits into, though visual art doesn't. I suppose it's how related language is to logic with syntax and expression of rhetoric. Guess that's why I'm studying to be a chemical engineer, at least.

I've always wanted to travel (and fully intend to.... someday), but have never left the U.S. Huh. :c
I'm in California.

Heheh, but really, we're getting to know each other better because there's not much else to talk about right now, and I bid you welcome!

So nice to see you guys growing and getting along fabulously!

You know, we Haylanders seem inactive, but that's because our primary means of interaction is through a Skype group, I'd highly recommend this, it's a great way to get to know your comrades and can be quite a good laugh at times, anyway just thought I'd rear my ugly head in your thread to see how ya'll were doin', better be off to do really super secret important herd stuff now (not really, but still  ^-^) Take care, Travellers Blessing!

A Skype group is a good idea. And we could definitely use it for vocal chat in the game.

Well, then there's the issue of someponies not liking to talk over skype.
Like me, and with my recently broken mic it's rather hard to have voice chat.

But it could be arranged to make some kind of herd chat over it.

Yeah, that can be an issue, but it's always nice to have a more conveinient way to chat to one another, even in text, that said, I've seen it's helped alot of people handle thier dislike of chatting over skype to have people they already know as friends chatting themselves, not that I am trying to be patroniseing to you, sorry If I sound that way ><, but even as a simple text chat it's a nice Ice Breaker 'n' a place for your herd to chill and have a laugh with one another

Ozzy: I'm not sure I understand all of what you're trying to say here. It's helped a lot of people handle their dislike of chatting over Skype (do you mean voice or text?) to have people they already talk to or at least know from the forum talking on Skype, so as to draw them into it / add a layer of familiarity to the system?

Travius: When you say you don't like to talk over Skype, do you mean you don't like using it period? Or that you just don't like voice chatting over it? 'Talk' is kind of ambiguous when used in this context.

Besides, isn't Skype structured in such a way that you would just invite a bunch of different users (herd members) to join together into a group conversation, which is by default text-only. And then at any time someone in the group can start a call, which invites everyone online to the voice chat, which they can decline or drop out of at any time?

Sorry I suppose I was a little vague, I meant using thier voice in skype, and yeah you have a point, if it's a particularly large group of people it can be pretty impractical

There is also a skype group the LoE members as a whole, that seems to be working pretty fine so far allowing anyone to call at any time, that has around 20+
participants so far

In any case it was just a suggestion I thought I'd make since I've done it with my Herd (Which yes is smaller) and it's worked out wonderfully, always nice speaking to ya'll, safe travels to ya  ^-^

Lookong at the herd members so far it seems pretty friendly, and i've always liked travellers' associations.  It doesn't seem to be closed just yet, so here's my app:

OC Name: Feather Scroll and Juniper Blossom (i have two oc's)
Forum Name: The Wandering Magus
Activity: (Note that I will not judge on activity) uncertain what you want here, but i am pretty much around every day and plan on being that way in the future when the game comes out.  I will probably be in the nearest quest location in-game, trying to do all the quests in sequence.
Planned race: (If not decided yet then leave blank.) One to be unicorn, still deciding on juniper.
Reason to join: (Any reason will do really, I am just more curious on that regard) i am interested in travelling based herds and soloers in general (which travellers generally are).  If you're not soloers then i am also interested in being part of a group of wanderers, possibly helping out combat-wise as a crowd control-healer-buffer (i played loremaster in LOTRO).

Oh, two new members!
shall write ya up right away.

As for the skype thing, I love skype use it now in fact to chat with some groups, it's just that I voiced my concern that many does not want to use voice chat, and thus would make it seem required to have a skype, which might cause some to leave, and less that would join.
But on that note, it might be a good idea to have a chat, but also that it's mostly for chilling until the game is out.

I refuse to practice anything. I've been belittled and shamed for even attempting the simplest of things for the first time, expecting me to get everything correct. It's happened too many times before, and it's how my screwed up parents raised me.

skill is only 1% talent.  99% of it is just plain hard work.

You know, being able to write is also a great thing, take me, I can not write a good story to safe my live.
So if I wanted to make a comic it would likely be boring and plain to boot.
I tend to work in a too systematic manner to write stories, so I stick with making systems for roleplaying.

And I myself have only learned Drawing trough practice, practice, practice, and more practice, and still I get stuck at the poses.

Say, I've noticed that the other herds are making their own banners.
Should I make one for this blessing too, or do you all think it's rather unneeded?


A big herd should have a big banner.

If you could do that, you would go down in history.

Although it may be unneeded now, we won't have to worry about it in the future. And it would be a nice  little addition and would give the thread a bit more color. I think you should do it!

I'm envisioning something of field at sunset, and a group of silhouetted ponies traveling across the field in front of the sun. The herd name could be cast over the sun, or in the field.

I don't know, just a quick idea.

If you have the skills to do so! ^-^ maybe with the name in Unical lettering? (the font used for "NO ADMITTANCE EXCEPT ON PARTY BUSINESS" in the Fellowship of the Ring)

I'm not the most artistically inclined; I'm sure that other members here are much more talented than I.
Nevertheless I'll see if I can't throw something together and see if my idea is worth anything or not.
So I'll take a crack at it tomorrow... after exams.   >A<


This is the lettering you mentioned, right. Because if it is, I love it!

I was thinking, since Travelers blessing is a old herd according to the backstory, the banner should have something to do with it, unicorns as you said. A really old banner since the founding of the herd.

the font that was mentioned earlier, in the spoiler.  And all right then, if you think so.  I would think maybe adjusting contrast and exposure and stuff, and using alpha to selection, and then crop, might work.  And idk if you vector, but if you want i can try in gimp.

I think I will end with making three things, a herd seal, a herd icon, and a banner.
The first one, small and only a silhouette of the icon, which will be a horseshoe with a unicorn in it and the herd's name written under it.
And the banner is more tricky, as it's kinda hard to make something look old and wide at the same.

And the icon/shield be like those medieval shields!

Banner, how about a faded, stained, slightly worn at the edges parchment with curled ends?

Hmm. A horseshoe with a unicorn silhouette / cameo. That makes a lot of sense. Good one, there.

If I had anything to suggest, it would be that traveler's lanterns are cool, but then I'm just a Morrowind fan.

As far as titles go, would it not be best to figure out what the different roles are actually for first?

I thought the titles were kind of obvious, but here's my idea:

Trailmaster - head of the herd
The Watch - fighters and tanks, main physical protection for travellers
Guides - know-it-all in terms of location.  Have the layout of the Everfree memorized, etc.
Scouts - fast fliers with stealth, scout out locations for dangers and also look for potential recruits
Trailblazers - scout out new locations, like the scout. Can be merged.
Trackers - search for lost ponies and items, seek out mobs, quests, etc.
Loremasters - know-it-all in terms of spells and abilities, buff and debuff experts, cc, etc
Songmasters - know-it-all in terms of stories and quests, roleplayers, etc
Recruits - new members who don't have a role yet

Sounds like it could be cool... just keep in mind that as we know almost nothing about gameplay so far, there's a good chance that half of those roles won't be possible or relevant. Even if they are, I imagine most people wouldn't want to limit themselves to a single role.

But like I said, it's cool!

i was just kind of basing it off the whole "warchers of the roads" sort of theme, and trying to think of the mmo equivalent.  I imagine recruits would like to know who's the expert at what and stuff, or who to hide behind if they're being chased by a mob.

But instead of Songmasters - how about Bards? And instead of Loremasters - how about Scholars? Simply because one does not simply become a master at the second rank XD.

Clearly the title should depend on your skill level, and if you were bad at singing you'd be stuck with "Screecher" forever.

In seriousness, I'd kind of prefer Bard or Minstrel to Songmaster, just 'cause the former two sound more musically diverse. ovO

Minstrels and Bards are storytellers, not always musicians.  They can tell the stories while lightly strumming a lute or just telling slightly poetically without music.  Music is just another way to tell the story!

For a pure storyteller, Loremaster would be a good title, but that one's already been taken.
Maybe switching around some names and making the skills-expert Scholar and the stories-expert Loremaster?

When I hear 'Songmaster', I think of a group sitting around a fire. I think camping.

Bard has always felt like a more solitary affair. But that's just me.

I really think it just depends on the sense Travius is trying to go for with this herd.

When I hear bard, I think of a pony who travels town to town, telling tales of epic proportions, and sings songs that will be remembered through the ages.

Who is accepted, welcome here!

Also, I'll try to get the 'icons' and banners sketched this day, and uploaded.
I kinda, failed the first attempt, the banner ended looking like something from a western.

And now for the title things, they do sound interesting, I wanted to keep ranks off this herd to make all as equal as possible.
It's sounds like a good idea.
But also, that more players can have said 'title' or purpose.
I'd have to think more about it before I can tell my proposals here, I'm still reading all the info trough.

we fixed the titles so that there was only one "master" (you) and all the other ranks except recruit were equal  ^-^

Yes, I did notice, pardon my absence, a lot of unexpected things happened this weekend, so I could not properly read trough all the proposals.
But well, if all do agree on adding the titles, specialisations, or what to call them, then I shall not stop it from happening.
In the olden herd I tried to start, from the dark times, I called myself main spokescolt, to mark that it was only that I handled all the essentials of the herd, but did not 'rule' it. But Trailsmaster have a  nicer tone to it, I'd say.


As for the picture/images you proposed, I do quite like them, pardon that I had not quite been able to show what I have a of yet, as I've had a quite busy weekend.
Especially that the unicorn is cloaked, I should also try to use that as reference. I'll try to mix up something this day, I should not have any unwanted disturbances this day.
I will also try to get some useful stuff for my programs, as I think I will make it in vector, but with filters that make it more 'olden' and such.

Got some previews done, with different fonts, I'm not sure which of them to use though, and neither am I sure of the dimensions a banner should have.
Spoiler: Examples in here. • show

Font A

Font B

Font E

Would also like to comment on the icon, if that's okay. I think it would look better with the horseshoe the other way up, like in Magnus' pictures, because it is difficult to see the horseshoe unless you look closely.

So, I'm rather sure I will work with "Font C" then.

Now the question is, should I make one for each 'title' or just keep it with 'member' and 'Herd-master for now?

Maybe just put up all the titles, and have members choose which one to put in their sig?

Trailmaster - head of the herd
Guides - know-it-all in terms of location.  Have the layout of the Everfree memorized, etc.
Lorekeepers/Scholars- know-it-all in terms of spells and abilities, buff and debuff experts, cc, etc
Bards- know-it-all in terms of stories and quests, roleplayers, etc
The Watch - fighters and tanks, main physical protection for travellers
Trackers - search for lost ponies and items, seek out mobs, quests, etc.
Scouts - fast fliers with stealth, scout out locations for dangers and also look for potential recruits
Recruits - new members who don't have a role yet

Then I shall make it with all these titles, and then cut the titles down later, was it not agreed that Bards had another name, Minstel or something like that?

I can rather easily change these, they are rather simple, once I had finished the the basic stuff of it.

Now the question remains, I feel that we lack a few titles that I usually associate with travellers, Traders and Tinkers.
The former is kinda obvious.
The latter, could also be called artisans, and are those that craft stuff, and such.
Also thinking that scout and guide could be mashed together, to better fit the origens of this herd as a blessing.
And the final proposal that recruits are renamed to Associates.

Well, personally I am most sure that crafts and the like is to be added to this project, as I'm fairly certain that combat and chatting will not be the only features the game will precent.

if scouts and guides are combined, maybe keep it as guide? To let ponies know who to ask for directions.

Trader sounds like a good name, although now it becomes less a Blessing and more just a common band of travellers.  Same with tinkers/artisans, since they probably need crafting facilities, which are difficult to move, if not impossible.  This would sort of invalidate their "traveller" status.

Associates is a good name.

I had in mind keeping it as guide.

Also, Tinkers are defined by that they are travelling craftsmen, or ponies in this case, hence why I chose that word.
Stuff like tin-smiths, silversmiths, and also tailors uses little to no facilities for their work.
The only reason I brought up Artisans was that it's a more known therm for craft-colts.
And, the first ideas for this herd was also to keep it as a place to help travellers, thus Traders and Tinkers are quite welcome here, from my perspective that is.

Ah, i see.  Well, i suppose having a sort of association free for various travellers seeking protection would be useful.  If that is how the herd is, then tinkers and traders would be quite welcome, yes.  I had been more expecting a sort of "rangers of the wilds" theme from LOTR x3

wouldn't it be cool to have an enemy herd? We have no reason to hate any herds at the moment but i think it would make rp more juicy!

What? Like highwaymen? Highwayponies? Those who seek to exploit travellers for their own personal gain? A Traveller's Bane?

I approve of Associates, as well as the proposed changes for absorbing Scouts into Guides, and recognising the traders and artisans. (I feel that artisan would give a better representation for the same reason as choosing Associate over Recruit. One would not necessarily want to be, for example, "a craftsman (usually itinerant) who mends pots, kettles, and other metal household utensils, esp. in a clumsy, bungling, or imperfect way" (oed.com). It just seems less directed than artisan.)
Though I'm sure this infrastructure of our herd will need to be reworked when the game is actually released, I suppose it is only for the best that we get things as ironed out as possible at each step of the way.

Well, for an enemy herd, I would never, on purpose, provoke, annoy, or otherwise do something to spark a rivalry, but it might happen if a group appears that have conflicting interests, exploit, and is a general nuisance to travellers.
And in such case, it will likely start with a polite confrontation, which may or may not solve the differences. It's the last resort to end in a negative view from another group, even if this group prove to be one of the most powerful ingame.

And, I'm glad to see other opinions on the subject of artisans or tinkers, it's true that the former sounds more refined, but the latter is likely more correct in this context, as I mentioned before, tinkers are those with a profession in the crafts, but have no single place to stay.

Also, I'll start working on the new banners then, with associate, trader, and artisan/tinker, the last one I will make one for both and will put up a poll for it.

Quite true, I might have to rewrite all of the titles, and they are after all, purely symbolic as of yet. Likely I will work these out as symbolic 'ranks' within the herd or something like that.

The original intent was simply to let others in and out of the herd know what your intended specialization is, not make ranks x3. Aside from trailmaster, of course.

Indeed, quite true, and that's also how I caught it.
But games with 'guilds' tend to have 'ranks' where on is given more privileges when having said 'rank'.
So, I presume that LoE will also have a herd system alike to that, and so that when in game the pony is marked with a symbolic rank, that does not affect anything, save for being a marker.
All this will depend on how it will be in LoE though.

Umm, now that I think about it, it's rather unlikely that LoE will include 'rank' names that can be changed and are visible to public, of the same reason one can not draw a CM for their own character, it might be used to be offensive, so, scratch the thought of naming the ranks for an in game effect.
Pardon that I did not think that one trough prober.

Though, there might be 'unlockable' titles, as suffixes and prefixes.
As for your question, I have no idea, I think it might be applied to the title itself, with a tag that says 'suffix' or 'prefix'.

If I could just suggest a more specific title/banner for an alchemist.

With the possibility of potion making, I'd say it's a profession that deserves its own banner.

For instance, an Inn in Ponyville (or somewhere else!) would be a good place. We could then organize Traveller's meetings, organize tours/missions from there and just roleplay.

It's a good thing to think about now, but at this point it's hard to determine a location, seeing as we know so little about the game.
   We know of Ponyville, Everfree forest, Canterlot, and Cloudsdale so far, unless I missed someplace, and I think we can cross out Cloudsdale for obvious reasons.

It's a good thing to have in mind now, but presently it won't do much good as we really don't know much about the locations.

Well, I do concur with Lurk on this, an inn, taven, or something like that would prove a fine place to stay.
And well, I do not know the exact locations and such. But I'm fairly confident that there will be places like them.

I don´t know all the towns that are in the game yet, but Cloudsdale is not a option, because you´ll need to create wings for all the unicorns and earthponies or carry them up there. Canterlot could be a option, but it seems pretty far away, since they need to go b train there in the show. And the Everfree forest is way to dangerous to be an HQ. I think Ponyville seems the best because it looks like it´s in the middle of everything.
But if they create a map with all the towns in it, we can choose which town we think is the best location for the HQ, it may not even be a town, it can just be a inn by a road somewhere in Equestria.

As long as Watchers are on the outer ring the Everfree can still be used I think.  Plus there's probably at least one rest location, Zecora's hut for instance (which is going to be in the game).

As for the HQ, lore-wise, having the HQ in Ponyville doesn't make much sense. Canterlot would, but depending on how the game maps are put together, Canterlot might end up being way out of the way for being the capital city of the Equestrian principality (kingdom?). Then again, with the racial trifecta and starting locations, it would make sense for the game to be in a loop (perhaps vertically) between the three starting locations. Eh... hopefully there will be an inn or some such establishment in middle-ish area or city.

depends on the location :]. Obviously not in a boss dungeon.  But i imagine there would be places with relatively low-level mobs that shouldn't be too hard to clear out and keep out for the Watchers.  The one-hit free xp mobs, i mean.

Mobs like hydras i would expect to have limited range.

In LOTRO (yes, i keep coming back to that, but seriously it was the game where i had the most experience with groups) we would sometimes just meet in this one glade filled usually with lvl-7 wolves, and the lvl-75 guardians just wipe the place clean for the lower lvl members to come in, and then we have our chats like that.

I think that while it would definitely be good to have an established presence in the Everfree, it would be a little nonsensical as our HQ. But that depends on how the game world is laid out.

Were this pretty much anything but a video game, most travelers would seek to avoid the Everfree Forest, so as not to risk any of its extra dangers. And likewise, Traveler's Blessing as a whole would likely be centered in Canterlot (thinking back to its story), or at least in a hub of travel. Hypothetically speaking, we could just be the "Southwestern branch" or something along those lines depending on where we are based (e.g. Ponyville, that backwater town). We can always retcon the story to fit what works best logistically.

Hmm... Your point makes sense, though at that point they wouldn't be called HQ's. Because, you know, there can be only one headquarters.
Many smaller meeting places -- or perhaps gathering places -- in interspersed locations including the Everfree, and one central HQ (for, uh... larger meetings) in... a central location. Perhaps Canterlot. But I've been over this.

Since, we´re travelers, we could have many small HQs.

Fellow Watcher!

Hmm... Your point makes sense, though at that point they wouldn't be called HQ's. Because, you know, there can be only one headquarters.
Many smaller meeting places -- or perhaps gathering places -- in interspersed locations including the Everfree, and one central HQ (for, uh... larger meetings) in... a central location. Perhaps Canterlot. But I've been over this.
depending on how big the herd gets and how many players are online, multiple gathering locations might work... [glow=red,2,300]But i don't see too many members actually online consistently.[/glow]

True, even I see it. By the way, about those titles. Is someone giving those or we choose actually what fits us?

so much conversation, not enough time.

and I suspect that Travius will have distributed the titles by the time the game starts.(hopefully  :P)

We should locate the HQ in either the center most town; or at the town more known for commerce, as it would theoretically get more traffic.

Dunno if ponies here like it or not, but made a little song for you all.  Not much, work in progress x3

Far over the Canterlot Mountains tall,
To Luna's keep, Celestia's hall.
Timberwolves howl in the dark;
The dragons come to leave their mark.
The clouds turn pink,
Our spirits sink,
Equestria fell to Discord's might,
But we returned, him for to smite!

Once again we climb the mountains tall,
In triumph over Discord's fall!
Our friendships held, our honesty stood strong.
Our kindness grew; our laughter in song
A generous gift
Friends to uplift.
The Traveller's Blessing, loyal knights,
We stand for everypony's rights!

I can't comment on the tune, as I have yet to listen to the Hobbit trailer and sing it out, but I can comment on a couple things.

The last line seems a little weak. We stand for everypony's rights? That's a bit generic. 'T'would be better if tailored more to what Traveler's Blessing's mission statement purportedly is. I imagine you're roughly following the story outlined in the title post?

You could probably add one to two verses in the middle to better flesh out the founding of the group, and what it actually did post-Discord. And then your second verse can act as a transition to a final verse (which would make five total, by how I'm drawing it out, which seems like a pretty good amount) set in present day to describe what Traveler's Blessing stands for today. Of course that all is only if you're trying to engage Valentine's background story in song.
And with such length, I'd also have to suggest melodic variation in perhaps the third and fourth verses, with a return to the theme at the end. Or whatever. You know what I mean.

The HQ, or meeting places, I would like to keep that till the game is out, or that we have a map of somekind to look at for reference.

And, a song? Mighty curious.
But I have to mention that this herd is not one that is to seek combat, only resorting to that rarely, this game will likely precent a lot of those rarities though.
Though, we are to be helping travellers in whatever way we can, though being a member makes it easier to help each other out, and be helped.

Well, strictly speaking it's not a rank, but more of a role, and as of yet I have no system to keep track of it, so just chose whatever one you want and use the banner for that.
If you can not decide then there is always the 'associate'.

So, I noticed that some 'alliance' group appeared.
'Herds of Equestria' they called it.

So here there is basically three choices, to join it, to stay out of it, or to go against it.
But I trust that the last option is one that I would not support, and I will leave a poll up for the other options, also feel free to voice your own opinion on the subject.
The main reason I am not all determined to have up join it is that I like to know just who this herd is allied to.

On the alliance, I think being a part of it would be good, although we should probably not be TOO reliant on it.  Maybe be a sort of cursory friend, but staying neutral?  Kind of like the Switzerland of herds?

I have no idea :P which verse should start with F-E-D-D ?

oh, and added some more verses, as requested!

Far over the Canterlot Mountains tall,
To Luna's keep, Celestia's hall.
Timberwolves howl in the dark;
The dragons come to leave their mark.
The clouds turn pink,
Our spirits sink,
Equestria fell to Discord's might,
But we returned, him for to smite!

But vict'ry was tempered with mourning.
Suffering ponies, our actions scorning
Showed us the pain that Discord had left,
And though we'd won, of joy we were bereft.
For traveller's aid,
A Blessing we made.
From fair Canterlot out to the world
We travelled Equestria with banners unfurled.

And over the years our numbers grew small,
For our group unicorns alone did call.
And so at last we opened up our herd,
And in non-unicorns our group conferred.
And then once more
In days of yore,
We walked the paths Equestrian
To help the lost pedestrian.

Now, long after those dark days,
Our Watchers strong still guard the ways.
And though we finished all our founders willed,
And we the land with peace have filled
We carry on,
With every dawn,
To finish now our herd's new goal:
To help each stallion, mare and foal.

Once again we climb the mountains tall,
In triumph over Discord's fall!
Our friendships held, our honesty stood strong.
Our kindness grew; our laughter in song
A generous gift
Friends to uplift.
The Traveller's Blessing, wanderer's friend,
Equestria's roads we still defend!


I think some of the verses screw with the melody a bit, but that also fits with the suggestion to change the tune around a bit for the middle verses.  What do you all think?

Hmmm... It could work out, 'cause timberwolves are evil and the next words proves it, so going down with tone should occur in exponentiation the... "fear"? =P
But after that, we would have to start "in" with... F? And go up by E-E-D or E-D-D.

I have no idea :P which verse should start with F-E-D-D ?

oh, and added some more verses, as requested!

Far over the Canterlot Mountains tall,
To Luna's keep, Celestia's hall.
Timberwolves howl in the dark;
The dragons come to leave their mark.
The clouds turn pink,
Our spirits sink,
Equestria fell to Discord's might,
But we returned, him for to smite!

But vict'ry was tempered with mourning.
Suffering ponies, our actions scorning
Showed us the pain that Discord had left,
And though we'd won, of joy we were bereft.
For traveller's aid,
A Blessing we made.
From fair Canterlot out to the world
We travelled Equestria with banners unfurled.

And over the years our numbers grew small,
For our group unicorns alone did call.
And so at last we opened up our herd,
And in non-unicorns our group conferred.
And then once more
In days of yore,
We walked the paths Equestrian
To help the lost pedestrian.

Now, long after those dark days,
Our Watchers strong still guard the ways.
And though we finished all our founders willed,
And we the land with peace have filled
We carry on,
With every dawn,
To finish now our herd's new goal:
To help each stallion, mare and foal.

Once again we climb the mountains tall,
In triumph over Discord's fall!
Our friendships held, our honesty stood strong.
Our kindness grew; our laughter in song
A generous gift
Friends to uplift.
The Traveller's Blessing, wanderer's friend,
Equestria's roads we still defend!


I think some of the verses screw with the melody a bit, but that also fits with the suggestion to change the tune around a bit for the middle verses.  What do you all think?

5 verses = 5 times song loop ovO

About this F-E-D-D : nevermind, forget it lol

EDIT:
Just found out:
Proper rhythm ends and "Equestria fell to Discord's might," and after this line I can't imagine how to sing "But we returned, him for to smite!"
Also, how do you think we should start second verse? First line doesn't fit with loop. I mean, it doesn't fit with "Far over bla bla bla".

I'm sorry! I still haven't actually listened to sound of the song and see about its rhythm. I'm too busy listening to Janelle Monae's The ArchAndroid right now...

The new verses are nice. The third feels a little weak story-wise -- I mean, while it was a part of the history of the group, it just doesn't feel like material one would want to epic in song, but that's just me. I really like the fourth, though. Especially its opening lines, with "Our Watchers strong still guard the ways."


As for this Herds of Equestria business, while their goal seems amicable, I think we should remain respectively neutral. Not join it, but not be against it. If the entire purpose of Traveler's Blessing is oriented towards travelers, it just seems unsuiting to extend itself past that.
Also: It seems that I can't vote...

The third verse can be left out if you want x3 I just decided to summarize the whole thing since that's what you suggested before.  Any other suggestions for improving the song?  What do you think of the ending to the last verse now?  I changed it a bit after you noted it sounded a bit weak x3

I can't seem to vote either...

When you say you voted yesterday, does that mean that you voted on this poll yesterday, or that you voted on a different poll yesterday. Because my hypothesis was that it is the ponies who voted on the previous poll held on this thread that are unable to vote on this one.

Mmm, yeah. There's a subtle difference between summarising a story and in my words, epic-ing it into song. Or I'm just spouting nonsense.

I like the revised fifth verse. The ending actually feels personal to Traveler's Blessing.

It´s like Minecraft, When I played it, it was before everyone were doing videos about it, so I didn´t even know you could punch blocks, but I kept playing, and after awhile I figured out how to craft things, and built my first dirt house. Games aren´t harder than what you make them.

True, but I like to think if I know what to do, it will take faster to accomplish, and I won´t get to play the game as long as i would want to.

also, I notice a lot of associates didn't bother choosing a title, or if they did didn't put the banner in their sig even if they don't have anything there yet.

Maybe they´re lazy, or doesn´t know how to pick their signatures, or maybe they´re waiting until the game gets released to choose what they want to play.
well, i hope not too lazy 'cause once the game starts we've got some TRAVELLING to do ovO
Not laziness for me, just an inability to decide which title I would like x3

And I have to switch to the title from my hearties.. :'(
Dang those new signature requirements!  >:(

There´s nothing forcing you to change it, not that i´ve seen.
nah, it's just that you can only have one image, and Trilight probably wanted both but had to decide on the Herd :]

Yus... :c

it's 12:03, afternoon, where I am x3

oh, and I wrote a few more verses for that song, could you please take a look and tell me what you think? x3

Far over the Canterlot Mountains tall,
To Luna's keep, Celestia's hall.
Timberwolves howl in the dark;
The dragons come to leave their mark.
The clouds turn pink,
Our spirits sink,
Equestria fell to Discord's might,
But we returned, him for to smite!

But vict'ry was tempered with mourning.
Suffering ponies, our actions scorning
Showed us the pain that Discord had left,
And though we'd won, of joy we were bereft.
For traveller's aid,
A Blessing we made.
From fair Canterlot out to the world
We travelled Equestria with banners unfurled.

And o'er the years our numbers grew small,
For unicorns alone did our group call.
And so at last we opened up our herd,
And in non-unicorns conferred.
And then once more
In days of yore,
We walked the paths Equestrian
To help the lost pedestrian.

Now, long after those dark days,
Our Watchers strong still guard the ways.
And though we finished all our founders willed,
And we with peace the land have filled
We carry on,
With every dawn,
To finish now our herd's new goal:
To help each stallion, mare and foal.

Once again we climb the mountains tall,
In triumph over Discord's fall!
Our friendships held, our honesty stood strong.
Our kindness grew; our laughter in song
A generous gift
Friends to uplift.
The Traveller's Blessing, wanderer's friend,
Equestria's roads we still defend!

That's why I see 50 posts per page, makes it a lot easier to see what's happened.
Mostly just chatting and talking about the new signature things.
To which I would like to add that it's perfectly fine if ponies chose not to use the banner, it's merely for those that want to say that they are proud members of this herd.

I like the song, and while  the first verse is more fitting to Canterlot in general, which is good by the way, as that where the blessing started, but well I'd say that the blessing is not that old though.
of what I understand Discord's time is more than 1000 years in the past.

Three posts while I wrote this...

And, two of them revealed that two ponies here live in same time as i.

QuoteLong ago, after the twin sisters banished the evil Discord with the Elements of Harmony, Equestria was finally free to grow
and prosper as its founders had wished.  Unfortunately, the chaos that Discord wrought upon the land was great and
widespread, leaving many ponies, though free, still no better off then they were under his rule.

That's Discord's rule... right?

I had to decide on the herd and take my OCs out of my signature :'(

Group hug? :'(


PS. Magus, what happened in Fallout Equestria? Did the main character find this pop star mare?
*group hug* :')

huh? Lilpip became filly-fooling marefriends with Homage and Velvet Remedy married Calamity...

Hmh, through all what I've read, I thought Lilpip will find Velvet and they will live together on the upper grounds.
Uh... how far are you in your reading?
Spoiler: show
She found Velvet singing as a sort of prisoner to a band of slavers who worshipped/served a dragon, killed all the slavers, used grenades to explode the dragon from the inside, and went on other adventures wherein she found that her crush on Velvet had been all facade and that she actually hated Velvet as a pony rather than an idol.


I didn't read too much of it. Just few chapters lol It didn't actually catch me enough to keep on reading.
Spoiler: show
Why did she hate her?

That's sad, you should keep reading, it gets better after chapter 20 ^-^  and EPIC by chapter 40!
Spoiler: show
Turns out Velvet is so pacifist she even would SUPPORT slavery, and refuses to kill until a particularly horrific event in the later chapters causes her to snap and massacre scores of Raiders who were holding gladitorial fights to the death for three-year-old foals IN FLUTTERSHY'S COTTAGE.  Lilpip herself snapped at a town called Arbu, where she found out everypony there was a cannibal and went on a rage killing stallion, mare and foal without any regard to age or innocence.  It gets... dark.  But it's always darkest before the dawn, and as Pinkie said, even while high out of her mind and manically depressed on PTM drugs, "it will all end with sunshine and rainbows".  And indeed it does.


Spoiler: show
FLUTTERSHY'S COTTAGE?! EPIC! I'd love to see a cartoon out of this :3 :3 :3

Ack, I leave this topic just to sleep, and it gets 5 more pages...Do you people ever sleep?!


That's why I see 50 posts per page, makes it a lot easier to see what's happened.
Mostly just chatting and talking about the new signature things.
To which I would like to add that it's perfectly fine if ponies chose not to use the banner, it's merely for those that want to say that they are proud members of this herd.

I like the song, and while  the first verse is more fitting to Canterlot in general, which is good by the way, as that where the blessing started, but well I'd say that the blessing is not that old though.
of what I understand Discord's time is more than 1000 years in the past.

Three posts while I wrote this...

And, two of them revealed that two ponies here live in same time as i.

You live in Denmark right? I´d rather be a Dane than a Swede.

There should be a comma between "Denmark" and "right", Mr. Perfect ^-^

oh, and Travius, you might want to take a look at this:

Quote from: Equestrian on 2012 Jun 15, 12:12:28

This is not an alliance.
An enemy of one herd is not necessarily an enemy of another and a friend of one herd is not necessarily a friend of another.
You may become allies amongst any of the herds, those whose become members and those who have not.

There are more details about this treaty should spring up through the evolution of gameplay. Enjoy! Politics :yay:

Reason to join: I love traveling, I love helping and I think it's better that I join a group whose people I will (eventually) grow familiar with and can chat with them every day than to play alone.

Accepted.
And, well I myself have my doubts once in a while, that's why I made my OCs, so I have less of a chance to back down from this race.
In any case there will be the option of making three characters to one's account so, I do not stress on it.

I'll have to use my imagination too, as I can't be a zebra/pegasus. (Pegabra? Zebrasus? I have no idea...)

But I suppose an average pegasus will just have to do. I'll imagine the stripes are there.

I mean how much more species could there be? Zebra, cow, griphon, donkey....nothing more that i can think off as now  ovO

Well i hope someday they  decide to add a couple more races  :0 i mean..right now they are making the game and everything...they should concentrate  on making the space and the cities and all of that...but when the game is done, maybe a couple expansions  ovO  lol

I mean how much more species could there be? Zebra, cow, griphon, donkey....nothing more that i can think off as now  ovO
Would say minotaur...but i think we should stay with characters that stand with two legs  lol , and iron will´s sheep assistants didnt even said a word, and i would leave Alicorns out of the page for now, they seem over powered.


Zebra.... Yes.  ovO
Then I will be a happy pony zebra mix....thingy. Whatever you call it.
goat? llama? buffalo? deer?

Money? I will pay a good 60 bucks easily to keep this game going. Well, if it turns out as good as we all hope it will be.

Maybe they should do something like Minecraft did...sell cheap access in Alpha, make it more expensive as time goes on  ovO

Indeed, and if it ever becomes Pay-to-win they will most likely be sued, though they might accept donations to keep up the servers once the game is up.

I tend to avoid MMO's where you can buy items that improve your performance in game with real money. That's just unfair and should be punished by banishment to the moon.

Agreed. I assume stuff like that is mostly the province of shady Korean MMOs, although I'm sure there are others.  :/

I´m not playing any MMOs at the moment, but here´s another example: In Team Fortress 2, there´s some servers where you can buy premium accounts on, and if you do that you´ll get cheats on that server, such as unlimited ammo, don´t have to reload their guns, more health and not being able to catch on fire, and those are just some of the cheats you can get, but fortunately the people who are premiums, they are terrible at the game even with the cheats, so they are just a little bit harder too kill.

But it´s different in a MMO, because if a player buys power you may not even be aware of it, you might never see this player, perhaps not even be on the same server, but in TF2, the server where the premium players are, are usually the largest server with the most players on, and are the most fun to play on because so many random things happen on them. So it effects the game more.

For those that want to play a game for fun, without paying, it's generally bad.

Huh?
What is the problem?

Disappeared o.O


Odd, I see them perfectly fine.
From where have they vanished?

Weird, Bard's title doesn't appear for me.
Maybe your browser blocked images from certain sites? What do you see instead of the title?

Error lol And I'm using photobucket myself.
x3 would it work if uploaded to, say, imgur?

Totally no idea.
so you can see all the other banners, just not the bard one?

That's about right.

If being a unicorn is bad, I'll happily swap her into an Earth Pony!
And thanks for welcoming me! :D

Yeah! It starts like this:

Stop! Collaborate and listen!
Trott is back with a brand new invention!
Something - grabs a hold of him tightly!
Flow like a seapony, daily and nightly!


It's a pretty cool song. I wonder who wrote it?

Brilliant to see you join this herd!
I see you already have received a manner of welcome.

Also, that's what I expected I dare admit, as this herd is after all a blessing, but I had hoped to have more earth ponies.

Welcome! You're welcome! So, reading, eh? What have you been reading lately?

I've just been reading J.D. Salinger's Nine Stories, and T.S. Eliot's book of poems about cats (Old Possum's Book of Practical Cats), though I intend to continue a book on Molecular Symmetry and Group Theory and start The Three Musketeer's by Alexander Dumas.

Welcome to the herd Book Smarts! :D

Since we're apparently on the topic of books now, I was at an antique store a few days ago and saw a large box filled with a collection of Mark Twain novels for $95 and I'm seriously considering buying it. (Adventures of Huckleberry Finn is one of my favorite books)
I checked the date they were printed, and I think they were from the 1940's if I remember correctly, which is old enough to get me excited! I love it when books are old, and if I ever find a first edition of a book I feel the need to buy it, regardless if I know the book or not.  x3

But I did manage to find a 1944 printing of Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and Through the Looking Glass for $5 that day! I was a happy pony.

Well... It's a book about saving for the future by using the Stock Market and getting the most of tax free money accounts which will lead to  you having a rich retirement,

I'm hoping to finish this by July and go into reading the I ching

I never read The Adventure's of Tom Sawyer and his other books, but I did read the Adventures of Huckleberry Finn which was deep and at the same time enjoyable.

I've yet to read Tom Sawyer as well, though I have a copy I found at a flea market; I just keep forgetting about it. x3

I do remember finding an abandoned box of old books at the flea market that day. The oldest one I believe was from 1911, bad condition though.
     One of the books in there was a first edition copy of Lord Hornblower, which I've seen go for a decent amount.

This guy is selling the exact copy I found for $350.

My parents thought it would be a good way to prevent me from forgetting French since I wasn't living in a french-speaking environment. They were 140% right. Although I had many a sore throats during that reading.

I've read the first three Drizzt books. (up to Exile, I think). I've definitely enjoyed it so far, and intend to continue, but I just have so many piled up I'm not sure when I'll get around to it.

Same with the Discworld books. I've read Colour of Magic and The Light Fantastic, and have many of the books downloaded from some random online archive, though I would prefer to read them physically.

I should get back to the Discworld books too. Read three awhile ago and enjoyed all of 'em.

Recently I found a book titled "classic short fiction" and started skimming it, expecting it to be boring. It turned out to be mostly full of really bizarre stuff, which is a good thing in my book (no pun intended). If any of you are remotely interested in ridiculous postmodern stuff, you should check out "Lost in the Funhouse" from that book - it's publicly available online, IIRC. Somewhat inappropriate for this forum though, so I'm not gonna post a link.

I've also been meaning to reread "A Series of Unfortunate Events" sometime...  X3

I remember them being children's novels; which I find odd because they're about this guy going through extreme lengths to murder these kids and, in the process, make their life a living hell.
Maybe it's because I haven't read them in years, but from what I remember about the books, they didn't seem very child oriented. Throughout each book it goes on and on about how miserable these kids are, and whenever a shred of happiness is given to them, it's shot out the window.

Well, just a warning - the ending doesn't wrap up all the mysteries, and so some people think it's kind of a frustrating ending.  :c I thought it was okay, but I would've liked some more answers too.

Just because they're full of dire, dramatic stuff and frequent murders doesn't mean they're not aimed at children - well, maybe somewhere around the 10-14 demographic. A lot of kids like that stuff! I read them when I was pretty young, and still loved them.

Come to think of it, I remember hearing a quote by the author about that - paraphrased, it was along the lines of "I write the kind of books I wanted to read as a child - books about horrible things happening to children." :/

More or less the same here I have to admit. Though I'm the Trailmaster.
But I did expect this huge amount of unicorns for a blessing, and then the word blessing is suddenly not off.

Though Races and classes are two different things, I'm sure.

According to the: What pony will you be thread, only 20% of the population are earth ponies, and 50.4% are pegasi.

I'm sure once the game releases, we'll see that earth ponies will wind up far superior to the others. lol

We don't know what they have in store for us, it could be one role for each pony species, or it could be every pony be any role they want.

I would be very impressed if they managed to implement that. But then you have to remember that Unicorns have magic, which the other two races don't. Same with Pegasi, but with wings.

While this is an interesting idea, it will most likely never work.

I still barley have a clue on what it is: a shooter game? A sandbox? I just have no idea, it never seemed to capture my interest.

a team-oriented shooter, mostly.

Everypony gets a role/specialization (heavy-weapons, bombs, sniping, spying, healing, incinerating, scouting, engineering-machines)
Then tries to beat the other team in one of three ways:
1: capture a flag (intel)
2: hold a point for x minutes
3: escort a bomb to a point within x minutes

Title: Re: [Herd] Travellers Blessing.
Post by: Wafflestomp on 2012 Jul 04, 22:32:11
I have played alot of MMOs. :p

I enjoy MMOs because I enjoy the group environment. It is my personal belief that video games are best played with other people. So I tend to gravitate towards the genre. So imagine my surprise when I find out there is a MMO that has ponies?!? :D
Title: Re: [Herd] Travellers Blessing.
Post by: Sea Foam on 2012 Jul 04, 22:47:58
     The reason I haven't played that many MMOs is because I never had anyone to play with. I would try to get some of my friends into a game, and it would work for about a week, but they would never get as into it as much as I hoped they would.  :'(
     At that point I would play on my own until I grew bored of the game and that wouldn't take long. Eventually I gave up on the idea all together.

     I'm just hoping that this game will be different, now that I have others to play the game with.

I loved that game, mostly just for the visuals and insane speed. I was pretty awful at it (died constantly) but it's still probably my favorite racing game... which isn't saying that much, I guess. That, and cruising around trying to smash the other racers without crashing myself was a lot of fun.

Oh look, I'm going to get to the finish line!

*some guy derps around and gets blue shell*

FFFFFFFFF-

*12th place*

True story. My little brother was playing and he lost because of this stupid shell.

All this talk of blue shells kind of makes me glad I never played Mario Kart games much  :I (outside of Super Mario Kart, which didn't have those things.)

Well, I did also play MK64 with friends a fair bit when I was younger, but always in that ridiculous "battle mode" thing, not so much the actual races.

If you guys are still taking applications I wouldn't mind joining.

OC Name: Cobalt Cloud (Link to bio in signature.)
Forum Name: Trege
Activity: Pretty active usually.
Planned race: Earth Pony
Reason to join: Well it would be nice to join a guild the moment the game
comes out, and another herd I wanted to join I think may be inactive now plus games are always more fun in groups and my OC
is based around defense so it would make a good defender, although tracker or guide would be cool too. (Do you have to earn the titles or just pick one?)

(Is this herd mainly roleplay or just general helpfulness to other players when the game comes out?)

Grand to see a new member, I shall write you up in just a minute.

As for your questions.
One does just choose a title for now, maybe later I might ask that people send me a message with their choosen title so I can add the info to the list.
And, well, this herd is made both for helpfulness and RPing, the latter for only a minor part. As the others said, mostly for helpfulness.

Ah cool, I like guilds that plan to help new players, it makes the community stay on good terms in MMOs, I'll probably be a tracker or a guide.  :D

If you are interested in a defender role, why not consider being a Watcher? Oh wait, that's what you meant by "a good defender." Trackers and Guides are cool, too. (I'm just biased.)

I seem to be having trouble setting one of the titles as my signature, I'm not good with forum code so can anyone give me an example of how to resize it to fit the same width and height as the other members herd titles?

Code (for Watcher) Select
[img width=475 height=112]http://i1128.photobucket.com/albums/m486/TraviustheTrotting/TBBLWatcher.png[/img]
Otherwise just substitute in the url for the image you want.

I'm liking this code thing. Other forums I've been in haven't had that option.

I went with guide it seems to fit my OC the best though I'll probably have him tank as well when the game comes out.

Thank you! Although I see why you think of that, it does not involve Voltorb. Simply, a combination of a part of my name, and a fascination with electricity.

I've thought about it a few times, but it's extremely annoying that if you leave the topic even for an hour or to go to bed, it will advance so many pages it's insanely difficult to catch up. One of the main reasons why I left the Pinkie'd RP. And I really, really didn't like leaving it as I not only wasted a bunch of time (and other people's time) but can't rejoin and "fit in" at the same time.

I much more prefer Real-Time RP. I am not sure if anyone here plays Warcraft 3, but one of these 2-4 hour RP maps is where I'm at. Everyone starts at the same point, and everyone stays more or less together throughout.

So unless there's some mythical voodoo technique to be a good RP'er on the forums, I'm really not eager to start.

Brohoof. And I also play LoaP and Fantasy Life on occasions. As for W4...Doubt it'll come out anytime soon, unfortunately. SC2 is still a major moneymaker w/ almost no competition for Blizz, WoW isn't doing too badly either. They really have no reason to spend money to make that game. But I would be preordering it for sure if it ever would come out.

 think that Mists of Pandaria will be the last expansion, or maybe not because they are grinding the game ofr money now. I played WoW for 7 years, but it wasn´t until Cataclysm came out when it started to be boring for me, and I only played it because my friends did, it got to easy.

If they make a WC4, I really wonder what they're going to do about the storyline... in WoW they killed off almost every villain in the series.

I haven't kept up with that stuff in awhile, but I'm pretty sure they've explicitly said MoP will not be the end.

And hey, I played WoW for 5 years then got fed up with Cataclysm too - although I also left because most of the people in my guild did, and the general community for that game is crap.

I loved that game when I first got it. I'm eagerly awaiting the arrival of Fallout 4(which'll hopefully be on the Skyrim engine) whenever that comes out. I'm also pretty mad that Bethesda had to step in and cancel that Fallout MMO. It looked like it was going to be great. Hopefully TES Online will make up for it, but I honestly doubt it will. I prefer the Fallout universe.

I don´t think that TES online is going to be as good as the other games, because the elder scrolls games and fallout are meant to be singleplayer games, It may be a great game, but I like to play the games in my own pace. Fallout 4 in the skyrim engine would be epic.

I'm going to reserve judgement on TES Online, but I kind of share your skepticism, given how central immersion and exploration are to the other games in the series. And... now that I think of it, balance is very important in MMOs, and Bethesda has repeatedly shown that of all the things they can do right, game balance isn't one of them. Guess we'll have to see if they shape up.

Aha, found it!  Well, sort of.  In Google Cache.  Gotta love them caches, creating copies of previous universes and realities and all.  Let's see if I can get a copy here.

so, apparently pasting large amounts of text onto a google doc crashes it :P  but if anypony just searches "Travellers Blessing the Roleplay" on google you should be able to find the cached pages.  Apparently it was still around until July 2nd

Hello fokes! Just came by and say hello and wanted to join your herd for my OC. But i have a question, is it alright to have multiple herds (like am in one now)? Cause i used to do it with other past mmo's. What do you think?

I was wondering does anyone here plan to take their title seriously just for fun?  :D
I'll probably balance learning about the game maps and such with goofing off.

(PS Welcome Amtrack and Zaddist, It's cool seeing how big this herd is getting, and seeing more earth ponies too.)

(Also since we are allowed 3 characters in-game and if herds have no player limit I wonder if having all 3 characters join the same herd would be allowed.)

I'd be surprised if anyone had a problem with having multiple characters in a herd.

As for the title: definitely! I mean, it's probably a role I'd fall into even without the title. Years of theorycrafting and min-maxing in other games has left me permanently stuck in that mindset, I think - not that I mind.

Post by: The Wandering Magus on 2012 Jul 26, 21:44:01
I love roleplaying, as most of you who know me can probably tell, but I also love quests.  I'm thinking of maybe splitting my time between being a Bard and being a Lorekeeper, although if I learn enough of the layout of places like the Everfree I might become a Guide.  Bard is my main focus though
Title: Re: [Herd] Travellers Blessing.
Post by: Rissian on 2012 Jul 26, 21:54:40
I mainly like being a guide because of my OC, but I can remember game maps pretty easily after awhile, and it's fun when you have nothing else to do.

(I also love life skills in games, one of my Mabinogi characters is a tailor/combat witch.)

If I make a crafter character it will probably be a pegasus, I can imagine resources would be easier to get with them, and making stuff would probably be easier because of that.

My 3rd character will likely be my other OC Spring Melody, not sure what skills I'm going to have her learn in game yet.

Sometimes roleplaying is fun though I usually just goof off on them, I'm not a serious or hardcore roleplayer but it is fun sometimes.  :D

Herds are the name for guilds in this game to fit the equestrian theme; they're the same thing aside from the name. As of right now, herds are used to gather a bunch of ponies together so that we can get an idea of who'll be in the herd come launch and to just talk about general things from interests to the game itself. I'm sure that when the game is released there'll be more benefits for being in a herd such as buffs.

Indeed, although not every game has concrete benefits for guilds; I think the main idea's usually to have a cohesive group of people to hang out and play the game with.

Of course! The only reason I added that last part is because I've been seeing more and more MMORPGs adding guild benefits on to their guild systems. I wouldn't mind if LoE had guild benefits or not, I just felt the need to add that.

I don't think the former has been decided yet, since we won't really have any activities for quite awhile yet. As for the latter, I'm pretty sure we'll have something like that in-game.

I wouldn't suspect that this herd requires consistent activity, or ever will. I know there are some members of this herd who don't post in this thread at all, and possibly some who aren't even around anymore.  :o
Just speculating on the last part, don't really know for sure.

Also, the closest thing that we've discussed regarding a private chat box, is a possible Skype group, but nothing has come of that yet. In game, we most likely will have a private chat box.

Say, I sound a bit foolish, but how do I add... (oh god, I'm dumb... :c) a picture to my signature. Preferably a customized version of the "Watcher" banner for TB... Yes, I am stupid. Don't you say I'm not! >:O

Of course you´re not stupid for not knowing.
You go into your profile setting, then go into forum profile, scroll down and you´ll see the signature option, then you have to have a link for your picture (photobucket, imgur) and insert the link there, you have to put [img]before the link, and /img in brackets after it.

OC Name: [army name/service tag] Silent Strife, BB-788/[regular name] Moonshadow (I go by either one of them, preferably BB-788.)
Forum Name: BB-788
Activity: Not much. I check the forum from time to time.
Planned race: Pegasus
Reason to join: When LoE comes out, I'll need a job. In TB, I'd like to be a guardian of travelers. Anyone I pass in need of help can count on me to protect them with my life. A guard can be replaced, but a traveler's life cannot. The outside world can be hazardous, as I to the lives all who threatens a traveler's. I would really like this job. My insistence towards violence being the way comes from my time in the Vaktov-erm... It's a long story... Just call me BB-788.


Greetings and welcome to this herd! ^-^

I noted that your signature seems to refer to the members of this herd as a 'Traveller's Blesser', and I have to tell, while there is no read word for it yet, but if anything I think it should be something more like 'A member of the Travellers Blessing' although that's rather long I admit.
Also, I see why you thought that Blesser was the right word, as the herd's name end with Blessing, but that's just the word for a group of unicorns, not that it means that it's all unicorns, but the name is a reference to the history of this herd.

That's also something rather important that we have yet to settle I think.

Just a mere opinion, Maybe we shall call ourselves "Angels". After all, we ARE the blessing of Travelers, right?

Well, I daresay that's a bit too fancy, as to say we think ourselves as something elevated from common ponies, or that we fancy pegasi, which is certainly not the goal of this herd.
Pardon if I sound rough here, but I think if any single word is needed for this herd then it should be something rather humble.

And, as I said, the name is more a 'reference' of this herd being founded long time ago by a group of unicorns, and also to symbolise that we are to help all travellers of Equestria in need, no matter their allegiance.
So, yes, we are in a way a blessing to travellers, but I'd prefer that we do not try to force that out to all around us, as this herd is also a place where Travellers can have a chat, and have companionship.

As Ezio said, there is still a lot that needs to be done before this game will be ready for anyone to actually play.
For those who haven't seen this, here's the checklist before the game even hits alpha, nevermind beta.

They've confirmed it in a topic that it will be rated with Fantasy Violence, so I'm pretty sure we're going to see a plethora of magic spells and a whole bunch of shiny attacks for us Pegasi and Earth Ponies.

Yeah, that was an awesome game, although the main things I remember from it are a) tower defense and b) campaign hard mode being ridiculously hard. I mean, I beat every mission in SCII on Brutal with not much trouble (okay, more trouble on the last one) and thought that WC3 hard mode wouldn't be that much worse... very, very wrong.

Pretty much. The unfortunate thing is that we're but one of the three(?) herds that are active and have quite a lot of members. This forum needs more people  to create more herds or participate in the existing herds. :/

I don't think we will anytime soon - we're too big for that. Of course, there's no telling how many people we'll have once the game actually starts; things might have changed quite a bit by then. There will also probably be a lot more guilds around once the game actually starts  :P

you never know, Herds are sometimes one of those things that seem really easy to make on paper but difficult to actually create in practice.  I think all the dead herd threads are testament to that...

I think we're the kind of herd that's "Too big to fall". Besides, once the game comes out, folks from various poni communities are going to flock into LoE, meaning that this herd can only grow.

Also, to clear up on something, the Haylanders did not fall, they are merely just waiting till the game is more complete to accept more members.
And, as long I'm on these forums, and not too many ponies in the herd misbehave, then this herd will not Fall.

Aye, quite true, the trouble is to get the concept up and out to others, while also being interesting enough for ponies to be willing to join.
This herd's forte is that it's the largest herd here, so ponies will be more likely to want to join here than the smaller herds, unfortunately for the smaller ones I must admit.

I don't think I'd want to cheer for China - based on what I've heard, they're ridiculously harsh towards anyone who doesn't get a gold medal. Apparently one Chinese athlete had had the windows of his house smashed by angry people because he got a bronze or a silver. Creepy as hell.

Welcome back!

I trust you had a glorious time at the Gala. ^-^

Well, I had a grand time!
Got several things, even played a wee bit of LoE.


Bring on the costume pics!  :D


Umm, 'bout that... I forgot the camera in my luggage while I was in the con. X3
But at least some 20 pictures were taken of me I admit, I was one of the too few cosplayers there, a Trixie I were. :/

Wow, I wish I was there :). No conventions in Canada though :/. Not where I live at least.

It was rather curious I admit, but not cheap at all, not cheap... :I
Let me see, it cost me abouts $500 in all, and most of that was the flight to the place and other transport, actually, that was just a very rough number to give the idea that it was not cheap to go there. >:/

But I have no idea of how Canada have it's conventions, if any at all, that I do admit.

To tell truth.
Yes, as I deem the price to be a minor cost for such an event, though my wallet thinks otherwise, it was well worth it, if only to learn a tiny bit about how much those in Stuttgart loves their Mini Coopers, really there was too many of those small cars, too many to be real at least one per street... ^-^

Well, the plushies were sold out in less than an hour of the con's start, and they were expencive. :I
But I myself got two blind-bag-ponies, two posters, one of Octavia and another of Trixie, I also got some pony tarot cards, and that's about it.
Also, some person gave me a drawing of Trixie and Fluttershy hugging because my cosplay reminded him of it, I think that was it, but least it's the first time one have given me anything just like that, and of this I must say I'm touched. :'(

But those were maybe the worst parts, I found out about a Brony Community of Denmark there, and will check that out this day.

Jaywalkers, those are the silly ones that just walk over the road where they like are they not?

Do they not know that there are giant metal boxes that weight more than 1 tonne that are running past at high speeds?
Also, I'm the odd kind that would not want a licence for driving, as I do not like most of them, and they are too expensive for my liking. But that's merely me being barking odd.

It's nothing bad. You just have to take it easy at first. Then move up to larger streets, and integrate yourself into the flow of traffic. And go on scenic drives to nowhere in particular.

I still don't care for freeways myself. Just so much traffic. Stop and slow. Speed up and keep up, but not too close. Cut in front and cut off. It's grating on the nerves.

Mmm. I totally know what you mean. But Dreamworks plans to make the movie into a trilogy, and it will all head towards the same ending as the books, apparently. Because, you know, the book series is going to be something like twelve books long once it's finished.

And the TV series is meant to bridge the gap between the movies (which apparently will have a time skip of something like five years). Which means two seasons (of twenty episodes each), then the second movie, then two more seasons (what an odd episode count), then the final movie.

Which probably isn't good.

Because they know that young children will pester their parents into seeing it, and 99% of any media industry is more concerned with profit than quality. Why should they care if it's a well made movie? As long as it brings a profit, they might as well show 2 hours of a baby defecating itself.  :l

Thing is if you don't grind to get high-end stuff you won't be regarded as a good player of your class. So, many players are obliged to do those massive grinds to be able to participate in the hardest of raids and get the even higher-end stuff (which is another grind basically). Though you are true at one point; in LOTRO I've grinded so much and now I'm fed up with playing the game at all (only go there occasionally to chat with my kinship/guild). Just waiting for the next expansion to release.

Look what I found :D
Spoiler: show
The service can be downloaded and played for free, following an account registration procedure. However, a new player receives only a damaged orange jumpsuit, a pair of grey shoes and a tool for gathering vibrant sweat from creatures. As such, although one is able to participate for free, more involved gameplay is difficult without depositing funds. Players with little or no money are initially limited to the following actions:

    Using the service as a 3-D virtual chat room or exploring the virtual universe.
    Using an in-game process called "Sweating" or "Sweat Gathering" to extract bottles of "Vibrant Sweat," which can then be sold to other players for PED or changed to items.
    Collecting "fruit", "dung", and 6 sorts of precious rare stones which can be sold to other players to raise funds.
    Performing numerous "jobs" for other players - for example, acting as a trader, or buying predefined amount of crafting materials at specified rate for crafters.
    Performing several missions (quests) that can be completed without any in-game equipment or money.
    Trickery: cheating, and stealing.
    Finding abandoned items or PED lying on the ground.
    Begging, which is largely frowned upon.
    Take part in newbies missions in order to receive free tools and ammunition.

Players may purchase items needed to kill Entropia's tougher creatures--which are often likely to yield a higher number of valuable items than their weaker kin--or they can participate in the "Mining" and "Crafting / Manufacturing" professions, which can produce salable items to fund further gameplay. However, an element of risk is involved in all of these activities, and the expected payback is usually less than the funds required to initially partake in them.

Many players attempt trading as a fun and seemingly attractive method for acquiring PEDs, but has typically low margins. One exception to this is trading so-called "uber" items, which are rare and efficient versions of normal devices. Such items can retail in-game for the equivalent of thousands of US dollars. The Entropia Universe entered the Guinness World Records Book in both 2004 and 2008 for the most expensive virtual world objects ever sold, and in 2009, a virtual space station, a popular destination, sold for $330,000. This was then eclipsed in November 2010 when Jon Jacobs sold a virtual resort on Planet Calypso for $635,000; this property was sold in chunks, with the largest sold for $335,000.

What do you plan to do with your year off? Go to Sweden?
Title: Re: [Herd] Travellers Blessing.
Post by: Julius on 2012 Sep 05, 23:13:02
No... Though travel is involved.

My plans are to go to Aruba, the U.S. and possibly Europe. There's many reasons for me to take a year off. You see, the main one is that I don't know what to study in college yet. It's all pointing towards music, but I'm not too sure about that, even if I love it so much.

I want to find out what I want to do. I'm also going to be moving to the States next year, so I want to... Get used to the place, to the people. There's only so much you can learn on a computer, even if you interact with others, it's not the same. I want to see for myself how it's like before I move there.

I want to change some bad habits before moving away from Venezuela too (Now now, don't go thinking bad things about me. I mean stuff like not being so lazy and exercising more, you silly ponies :l ). Perhaps mastering my english would be a reason... Though I'm so good at it already. Really, my accent is almost completely gone, my grammar is great (If I do say so myself), I THINK in english...

Anyways, those are the main reasons. I really need to find out what to do. There's no way in hay I'm studying something that won't make me happy, so I need to make sure... I guess in a way, you could say I haven't found my Cutie Mark yet. Silly isn't it?
Title: Re: [Herd] Travellers Blessing.
Post by: The Wandering Magus on 2012 Sep 05, 23:20:32
Any subjects in particular you like more than others?  If you like studying languages you can try translation.
Title: Re: [Herd] Travellers Blessing.
Post by: Julius on 2012 Sep 05, 23:49:43
As a matter of fact, I HAVE translated before. Recently even, when a cousin from North Carolina visited. Since she doesn't speak Spanish... It's hilarious at times, but man, all that talking makes my head hurt, not to mention my mouth.  X3

Languages... I'd like to learn French and Italian, but that's about it for me. Even if learning other languages is easy for me i just don't like that.

And subjects I like? Well that's kinda tough for me. For example, I love videogames. I know my way around a computer, and if there's something I don't know, I can find out in no time. You could say i'm "Tech savvy". Then, would I not like to study programming or something related to computers? The answer is: NOPE. It bores me to death. I enjoy the end product, not what comes before that.

Oh! Here's something that deeply interests me: Mythology, Magic, Fantasy. To be honest with ya, I believe in it. I believe in magic, no matter what others may say. Hay, I even believe that somehow, Equestria is real for Muffin's sake.  :l

But if I was to study Mythology, where could I apply that knowledge? How would I make money with it? I hate the idea of being a teacher, and I can't think of any other way to use that knowledge.  :/

Ahh... Music, I Love it so so much. Feels great to create it, listen to it. It's amazing. I think the one thing I love most is music, and I'm barely starting to venture into it's creation. How awesome would it be to finish playing an epic videogame like, Final Fantasy or Mass Effect, and seeing your name on those credits, saying that you were part of the team who made the music for it. The music that made you feel Happy, Sad, Scared, Confident, Overwhelmed, Nervous, Amazed... The music that made that game such an amazing experience.

Sadly... Music's not a field where everyone wins. I want to study something that will make me happy, but I got to make sure that it will provide me with money too. Sadly, this is not a fantasy world, as much as I'd want it to be. Sadly, I don't have wings to lazily glide around through the sky with some pegasi, Sadly, I can't go around defeating monsters and saving the world with magic. I wish I could fly... I wish I could cast magic... I wish I could go to Equestria too... But...

This world isn't like that, it's all about the money here, so you got to think about that too.

So... I don't know. That's why I'm taking the time off to figure it out. I really have to think it through.  :c

You know Julius, writing could be your niche. It took a long time to find mine as well, but it's that creativity, that open mind, that makes great writers (do I hear Tolkien or C.S. Lewis around here?). Another interesting thing, Tolkien was just as sane as I am (which isn't reassuring now that I think about it...  lol), yet he literally believed in magic, and worlds beyond this one. I don't care how corny that sounds either. Magic is proven to be a real thing, and the scientists that can't explain it merely call the believer's in it crackpots and nutjobs.  :l

Just explore your possibilities, and see what the world has to offer. You may be surprised where you end up; I certainly wasn't, and I'm not even halfway through yet.  :)

Yes. That is definitely a good reason to take some time off, and sort yourself and your ambitions out.

As for me and music and money and education, I love the maths and sciences, especially chemistry, and I love designing things (like games and gizmos and musical instruments). And so I'm studying towards a Chemical Engineering degree with music on the side.

Yeah. My high school had a senior project, and I did mine on musical acoustics, and designed a clarinet with two potential keyworks. One with a chromatic layout (almost finished making this one), and one suited for one-handed play (the keywork is too complex for me to actually be able to make, right now). I've also worked on an air-read / valve-work (hopefully for better pressure management) version of the sheng with greater range and chromatic capabilities, but that one's all conceptual right now.

And there are a couple other projects I'm considering, but haven't really worked on.

Pony science Challenge: How mutch wingpower is needed for a Sonic Rainboom
Title: Re: [Herd] Travellers Blessing.
Post by: Julius on 2012 Sep 10, 03:24:04
Since she usually goes at around 16, if I remember correctly... I'll multiply that with the force of gravity pulling her down and add a bit of extra wing power since she'd be going faster than 16 with her fast flapping and... I...

Sleepy...

Sweet dreams everypony, I'll let you figure this one out (Even though I'm really interested in the subject of wings and flying, which of course includes this magnificent question). Good night!  ^-^

Post by: Trixster on 2012 Sep 10, 08:09:41
My calculations
1WingPower = 19,5 MPH = 18,8 M/s (
)

Case 1:
(
&feature=player_embedded#!)
Sonic Rainboom = 1635.31 Meters Pr. Sec
Result: 86,9 Wing Power

Case 2:
(http://www.equestriadaily.com/2011/04/physics-behind-sonic-rainboom.html)
Sonic Rainboom = 340 Meters Pr. Sec
Result: 18,1 Wing Power

In the episode "hurricane fluttershy" RD is measured to 16.5

well then one can wonder what is the right one... but mine is on case 2 as it seems Closest to the canon truth in velocity

so is a sonic rainboom done at mach 1?  or faster?
Title: Re: [Herd] Travellers Blessing.
Post by: Julius on 2012 Sep 10, 16:22:50
That's impressive, I couldn't have done that myself (Not much of a physicist here).

I would have to go with case 2 as well. I did some calculations and, it seems to me that this is the right scenario.

then again... thing that they most likely held a meeting to determine the name.

because "power" is already used as a term to describe a quantity equivalent to force multiplied by velocity, not simply velocity itself, and it is velocity alone which is being measured.  Given time, even Fluttershy can accelerate to a desired accelerative velocity; it's not only accelerative velocity which matters when attempting to create a vacuum effect to cause an antigravitational force on dihydrogen monoxide, one also needs to factor in many, many other aspects in order to be able to effectively calculate the ability for a single pegasus to lift a given amount of liquid of a certain temperature, pressure and volume, regardless of whether magic is being used or not.

yea... but i think that by a magic power test twilight would be as good to magic as RD is at Flying... or just rather near 16.3.
but that is also gonna be her base unicorn power... not amplified by emotion or the elements of harmony. how the test should work im not shure but im guessing something like what presure you can magically apply to the Mesurment tool.

"Thaum was the conventional means of quantifying magic in Classical Magic Studies, yes.  There were also Resons, Primes, and other systems of measurement.  However, most recently it has been discovered that the most accurate means of quantifying what we perceive as magic is by Magitrons, each of which is approximately 3.189 x 10^-32 milliPrimes.  That would be about 2.10 x 10^-53 Thaums for those of you who prefer using the more traditional system.  The reason for the shift is fundamental to the understanding of modern Magitronics and Inter-Magical Forces."

An image of a Thaum appeared, with the rapidly vibrating Resons within.

"Now, the traditional model up until a few decades ago stated that Resons were the smallest building blocks of Magic.  However, study has shown that individual Resons themselves are further separable into individual Magitrons.  Each magitron has only two states, In and Out.  Each Reson is composed of approximately twenty magitrons, which determine the 'flavor' of the Reson by their state."

Images of infinitesimally small particles appeared inside each darting Reson.

"Now, due to the nature of Inter-Magical Forces, every single spell, every single bit of magic in the universe, can be predicted through six simple equations which determine the state of the magitron."

The six Scroll Equations appeared.

"As usual, variables in the equation can be denoted by either the letters of the modern Equestrian alphabet or Ancient Equestrian.  Quantities here are expressed in the Modern system rather than the Traditional system, for reasons that will soon become clear.  Any questions so far?"

These magitrons, then, create very specific quantifiable effects on their surroundings, by the generation of Spell Fields.  An individual magitron of magical energy mu travelling at a speed v in one direction creates a Spell Field whose direction is clockwise around the direction of the velocity vector of a magnitude given by the first Scroll Equation.  These Spell Fields, which occur naturally in magnitudes too small to affect any save the tiniest particles, are the basis of all spells and magic effects.  In potions, for instance, solutions and mixtures of various substances create minute channels of magitrons all clumped together inside the particles which make up the alchemical components.  Without going into too much detail, the net effect of the interacting Spell Fields is to alter and interact with specific organic compounds, cells and substances within range of the potion in specific manners determined on a macroscopic scale by the components and on a microscopic scale by the behavior of the individual magitrons in relation to each other as defined by the Scroll Equations.  Another example of the power of the Spell Fields of a large number of magitrons interacting with each other may be seen in Unicorn and Pegasus abilities.  The actual effects themselves have long been observed and examined on a macroscopic scale, most notably by the quantification of the magical energy necessary for each spell by the traditional methodology, but the microscopic interactions have never been fully understood until now.  As you all probably know or will learn in Biology, wings and horns in ponies and other magical creatures contain specialized mana glands which concentrate the mana absorbed through food and breathing before channeling the substance into resonance coils.  Now it is at these coils that the overlap between biology and Magitronic theory occurs.  Traditionally, it was thought that the mana being channelled was somehow dependent on the biology of the wielder, as previously stated.  In simpler terms, the magic, or so it was thought, was completely different due to being a unicorn or a pegasus.  But according to Magitronic Theory, all Magic must be fundamentally the same.  How to solve this apparent contradiction?  The solution lies in the discovery that the specific Spell Fields produced, and their resonance, are directly proportional to the ratio of the two possible states of the magitrons being channelled.  That proportionality is found to be precisely as stated in the Second Scroll Equation.  Now, when the specific Spell Fields within the coils are produced, they create a sort of push-pull action on neighboring fields.  The magnitude of the effect is related to the frequency, and when multiple fields oscillate at a specific frequency, a resonance fields is produced.  These fields in turn affect neighboring fields, and the net effect may be observed as a macroscopic Magic Field.  Depending on the states of the magitrons as mentioned before, the Magic Fields may then manifest physically as flame, antigravitational force, or other observable effects.  Now, the process of converting magical energy to physical effect is not always entirely efficient.  In fact, it has been discovered that it is impossible within the limits of our world to have 100% efficiency.  I say "within the limits of our world" because beyond our world there exist entities which do in fact have 100% efficiency or greater, but the study of such creatures is both beyond the scope of this course and currently prohibited by Equestrian law to anypony not bearing a research licence.  Returning to the subject at hoof, however, the result of this inefficiency is the conversion of some of the magical energy into physical energy, whether that be in the form of heat, light, or a force pushing a unicorn into the ground.  You may be wondering what any of this has to do with magitronics.  In fact, Spell Matrices were originally designed specifically to attempt to increase the efficiency of spells to the known limit.  It has long been known that inscribing certain materials, such as jade or onyx, with specific symbols, generates a flow of mana.  What was not known was that when placed together in specific patterns, these "runestones" were actually capable of changing the state of the moving magitrons.  By very carefully connecting these runestones, then, it was theoretically possible to convert one type of magic to another, generate spells, or, most importantly, amplify the power of spells.  It turns out that the preciousness, efficiency, power and complexity of a spell matrix are all directly related to each other.  This should not be surprising, since more complex matrices will have more points at which energy loss is possible, an imprecise matrix is prone to be inefficient, and inefficient matrices tend not to be as powerful as efficient ones.  One interesting phenomenon that has been observed during the development of Magitronic research was the fact that Magic Fields themselves were capable of a sort of "resonance" similar to that of Spell Fields.  This discovery led directly to the modern understanding of Magitronics, whereby actual Inter-Magical Forces, or effects of particular Magic, Spell and Resonance Fields on each other and on the state of magitrons, are utilized to create powerful macroscopic effects.  Now it must be stated that the concept of a Spell Matrix is not strictly a modern invention.  Indeed, official statements released by the Royal Court reveal that the binding spells which froze Discord and sealed Nightmare Moon were, in the most basic sense of the term, Spell Matrices.  That is, they utilized multiple spells interacting with each other to create a net effect greater than would normally be possible given an equivalent amount of mana.  Many seals and bindings are in fact of this nature.  The key difference between the modern Spell Matrix and these ancient traditional matrices is that modern matrices are a direct result of our analytical understanding of the basic principles of magic rather than divine knowledge, oral tradition, trial and error, or idealized macroscopic equations.

during the development of Magitronic research was the fact that Magic Fields themselves were capable of a sort of "resonance" similar to that of Spell Fields.  This discovery led directly to the modern understanding of Magitronics, whereby actual Inter-Magical Forces, or effects of particular Magic, Spell and Resonance Fields on each other and on the state of magitrons, are utilized to create powerful macroscopic effects.  Now it must be stated that the concept of a Spell Matrix is not strictly a modern invention.  Indeed, official statements released by the Royal Court reveal that the binding spells which froze Discord and sealed Nightmare Moon were, in the most basic sense of the term, Spell Matrices.  That is, they utilized multiple spells interacting with each other to create a net effect greater than would normally be possible given an equivalent amount of mana.  Many seals and bindings are in fact of this nature.  The key difference between the modern Spell Matrix and these ancient traditional matrices is that modern matrices are a direct result of our analytical understanding of the basic principles of magic rather than divine knowledge, oral tradition, trial and error, or idealized macroscopic equations.

Did anyone see the Questria trailer? It's on Equestria Daily. Looks pretty good and action-packed, but I'm not sure if that's an MMORPG or an MMOAG (Massive Multiplayer Online Action/adventure Game). LoE might be having some competition here.

They have some gameplay in this link.

http://www.equestriagaming.com/2012/09/questria.html#more

Judging by the gameplay video it may play like Diablo or something, they also said it would be 4 player so it's probably not gonna be an MMO if they only keep it 4 player.

Hey you guys, been awhile. I wanted to show off my RP called The Legend Of The Cursed Moon Of The Sea. http://forum.legendsofequestria.com/index.php?topic=4548.msg355842#msg355842 (http://forum.legendsofequestria.com/index.php?topic=4548.msg355842#msg355842) It's my first time so go easy on it. and tell me what you think?

you'll have to be very, very careful with keeping it within the forum rules for being G-rated and child-friendly, unfortunately.  Even a Hunger Games based RP was repeatedly shut down until the players just decided to do it on another forum.  I'd recommend looking at the rules one more time just to make sure, or if you're really unsure to just ask McSleuth whether he thinks it's appropriate, and how to make it appropriate if it's not.

"Thaum was the conventional means of quantifying magic in Classical Magic Studies, yes.  There were also Resons, Primes, and other systems of measurement.  However, most recently it has been discovered that the most accurate means of quantifying what we perceive as magic is by Magitrons, each of which is approximately 3.189 x 10^-32 milliPrimes.  That would be about 2.10 x 10^-53 Thaums for those of you who prefer using the more traditional system.  The reason for the shift is fundamental to the understanding of modern Magitronics and Inter-Magical Forces."

An image of a Thaum appeared, with the rapidly vibrating Resons within.

"Now, the traditional model up until a few decades ago stated that Resons were the smallest building blocks of Magic.  However, study has shown that individual Resons themselves are further separable into individual Magitrons.  Each magitron has only two states, In and Out.  Each Reson is composed of approximately twenty magitrons, which determine the 'flavor' of the Reson by their state."

Images of infinitesimally small particles appeared inside each darting Reson.

"Now, due to the nature of Inter-Magical Forces, every single spell, every single bit of magic in the universe, can be predicted through six simple equations which determine the state of the magitron."

The six Scroll Equations appeared.

"As usual, variables in the equation can be denoted by either the letters of the modern Equestrian alphabet or Ancient Equestrian.  Quantities here are expressed in the Modern system rather than the Traditional system, for reasons that will soon become clear.  Any questions so far?"

These magitrons, then, create very specific quantifiable effects on their surroundings, by the generation of Spell Fields.  An individual magitron of magical energy mu travelling at a speed v in one direction creates a Spell Field whose direction is clockwise around the direction of the velocity vector of a magnitude given by the first Scroll Equation.  These Spell Fields, which occur naturally in magnitudes too small to affect any save the tiniest particles, are the basis of all spells and magic effects.  In potions, for instance, solutions and mixtures of various substances create minute channels of magitrons all clumped together inside the particles which make up the alchemical components.  Without going into too much detail, the net effect of the interacting Spell Fields is to alter and interact with specific organic compounds, cells and substances within range of the potion in specific manners determined on a macroscopic scale by the components and on a microscopic scale by the behavior of the individual magitrons in relation to each other as defined by the Scroll Equations.  Another example of the power of the Spell Fields of a large number of magitrons interacting with each other may be seen in Unicorn and Pegasus abilities.  The actual effects themselves have long been observed and examined on a macroscopic scale, most notably by the quantification of the magical energy necessary for each spell by the traditional methodology, but the microscopic interactions have never been fully understood until now.  As you all probably know or will learn in Biology, wings and horns in ponies and other magical creatures contain specialized mana glands which concentrate the mana absorbed through food and breathing before channeling the substance into resonance coils.  Now it is at these coils that the overlap between biology and Magitronic theory occurs.  Traditionally, it was thought that the mana being channelled was somehow dependent on the biology of the wielder, as previously stated.  In simpler terms, the magic, or so it was thought, was completely different due to being a unicorn or a pegasus.  But according to Magitronic Theory, all Magic must be fundamentally the same.  How to solve this apparent contradiction?  The solution lies in the discovery that the specific Spell Fields produced, and their resonance, are directly proportional to the ratio of the two possible states of the magitrons being channelled.  That proportionality is found to be precisely as stated in the Second Scroll Equation.  Now, when the specific Spell Fields within the coils are produced, they create a sort of push-pull action on neighboring fields.  The magnitude of the effect is related to the frequency, and when multiple fields oscillate at a specific frequency, a resonance fields is produced.  These fields in turn affect neighboring fields, and the net effect may be observed as a macroscopic Magic Field.  Depending on the states of the magitrons as mentioned before, the Magic Fields may then manifest physically as flame, antigravitational force, or other observable effects.  Now, the process of converting magical energy to physical effect is not always entirely efficient.  In fact, it has been discovered that it is impossible within the limits of our world to have 100% efficiency.  I say "within the limits of our world" because beyond our world there exist entities which do in fact have 100% efficiency or greater, but the study of such creatures is both beyond the scope of this course and currently prohibited by Equestrian law to anypony not bearing a research licence.  Returning to the subject at hoof, however, the result of this inefficiency is the conversion of some of the magical energy into physical energy, whether that be in the form of heat, light, or a force pushing a unicorn into the ground.  You may be wondering what any of this has to do with magitronics.  In fact, Spell Matrices were originally designed specifically to attempt to increase the efficiency of spells to the known limit.  It has long been known that inscribing certain materials, such as jade or onyx, with specific symbols, generates a flow of mana.  What was not known was that when placed together in specific patterns, these "runestones" were actually capable of changing the state of the moving magitrons.  By very carefully connecting these runestones, then, it was theoretically possible to convert one type of magic to another, generate spells, or, most importantly, amplify the power of spells.  It turns out that the preciousness, efficiency, power and complexity of a spell matrix are all directly related to each other.  This should not be surprising, since more complex matrices will have more points at which energy loss is possible, an imprecise matrix is prone to be inefficient, and inefficient matrices tend not to be as powerful as efficient ones.  One interesting phenomenon that has been observed

that's good x3

As for my personal opinion, and I hope i'm not being too harsh, I don't think it's... well, I think it's a bit grimdark for the Equestria that's presented in the show.  Perhaps it could be... lightened up, somehow?


Hmm. Am not quite sure. It's off from an OC am working on. With a twist with Pirates of the Caribbean, goonies, and Tomb Raider. But i understand what your saying since you haven't seen the rest of the story behind it. If you like to know a little more about it you can always PM me and help out with suggestions and the RP. =)

Im definitely not going to join... as it seems that all Roleplays i join Have the tendensy to exstinguish quicker than a Match thrown overboard at high sea

Tis not like that, well...yes you will get sunken in the beginning but you'll wake up on the shores on the island and will explore it. The boss will be somewhere else...Am making it as unique and long/fun as possible as i go. But i don't mind people not wanting to try it out, that's their choice.

For the record, if you accept Fancy and Blood, they're either NPCs until I get back or Fancy's in some sort of coma and Blood is tending to him, and absolutely NOTHING is going to get past him to Master.

Or, you know, he could be on a cruise ship coming by later.

I'd love to help you with the story if you like ^-^

To be honest, I'm not quite sure myself. I just found myself wanting to leave for some reason. It's kind of hard to think straight for me today, so sorry for a not so exciting reason of leaving.

Ah, well, one does not always have a reason for wanting to leave.
But just remember, this Blessing will always have open hooves, if you at some point do want to return.

I hope you will have a great time no matter your future choices. ^-^

You're invited to our testing
'cause we think you're really swell!

L-O-E's turning one year old,
So help us celebrate,
The fun will be delicious,
And the madness is first-rate!

There will be games and dancing,
Fly around and shoot some fire!
And when the party's over,
Gather 'round for a group hug.

No need to point out glitches,
Being there will be enough...
Stress Tests mean having fun (Lagg) with friends,
Not breaking lots of stuff.

It won't be the same without you,
So we hope that you say "yes."
So please, oh please, RSVP
And come and be our tester!

Edit: And come and break our test! lol

Swag. B)

According to Tekner, you only need about 1,5 Gigas of RAM and about 300 Megas for the game.

Also, the game will have various quality options for those... Not so powerfull computers.

I wouldn't be too worried. :)

My computer is too strong for this game...and its only a laptop.

sadly there are even better computers on the market still... seriously, I'm surprised there are gamers with such old computers...well not that surprised.  What really surprises me is how low the requirements for the game will be.  Do you think there will be higher settings as well?

I'm not an expert, but I'd guess that higher settings = more complex graphics = much more work for the team.

Trixster: I guess the bright side is that upgrading/getting a superior computer won't cost that much; you could probably get something capable of playing LoE very well for <$500.

You could try that later as a side project, don't give up on art!

You should make a pot with the Traveller's Blessing insignia. It will be the herd's official pot.

Then you could vector a drawing of the sheet music of a song about the pot (arranged for piano and recorder) and conceal the drawing within the pot, then put the pot inside a specially made wooden box that can only be opened with a powerful karate chop.

Oh, there is?
Of what I gather is that there simply must be more than one such, else that one is sure busy with being everywhere, and acting very differently whenever he appears.

Oh, pardon that, I shall fix that shortly.

Also, this herd, is quite equal in that there is not ranks, and I'm mainly just a Spokes-colt when it comes to my standing as 'Trailmaster', so you can find the 'banners or titles' in the topic header here.
So, you can choose the title that matches you the most and use that, with the sole exception of Trailmaster of cause.

If so, then It would be neat to have a place to meet, and a time, both of cause to suit as many ponies of this blessing as possible.
On that note, should I take down the current poll, write the result on the main topic, and then set up a poll for a time to meet?

sure, if you think we'll all be online at the same time.  The only question would be where and when.  Maybe there should be shifts of somepony staying at a particular location to meet newcomers?  And an easy-to-access location would be best.  Fluttershy's cottage?

It's basically a Pony club in the game with music and stuff and a dance floor that can hold 200 or so ponies if I'm correct. Although I think an admin said it may or may not be in the stress test this weekend.

if stable 54 is released I assume it would be pretty crowded if players like it. I kind of want to see fluttershy's cottage though it seems like a cool place to hang out. If it's in the stress test that is.

(I may also end up running all over the place though checking the areas out, but I'll probably stop by wherever everyone plans to meet at.)

Slender pony joins the herd..... me like again. ovO Welcome.


Duuuude...  ovO

Anyways, what kind of Art do you like Magus? You know, besides poetry.  ^-^

What sort of comic Morgan? :D


Oh! So srry for not checking up here! :P

But yes Julius am working on publishing a comic series someday. It's not pony related i assure you, but my name is indeed the comics name, Sententia, and the main characters name is Morgan. ^-^ And, well, tis about what i think about life really is and what's the purpose in it. I can continue on but it has some..."religion", and "alienolegy" in it so i don't want to start something like that here on LOE forums..BUT! That doesn't mean anime, cartoons, and video games get evolved in it. ovO But ya that's what am goals are, try to get my English 12 and start working with my art. Tis fun.


And you guys are talking about the stress test right? I wouldn't mind meeting up at the everfree forest or suger cube corner since it's simple to know where it is.....i wounder.....will their be a slender pony as a Easter egg?..... That would be awseome...ovO

Again, not good with schedules here. Just message me online and I'll go where you all are! ^-^

I'll be making Julius for the Stress Test, and since all data's going to be erased anyways, I can still be Julius in the final release too.

Morgan, that is certainly a mix I didn't really think of. Actually sounds interesting. Let us know when you get that bad boy published, will ya? :]

Well, so all of us can be there at 6PM GMT?
I'm no good at those odd fancy names for timezones, I just prefer to say the general geographical location, such as: Central European time, East American time, and so on.
So, where in the world is GMT measure again, as the source I found said it's the British timezone, but it does not quite match up in my mind, I admit.

And, the meeting spot, at fluttershy's, the CMC club-house, sugar-cube corner, or someplace in Canterlot?
The last is my own suggestion as I think that it will not be much visited due to it being a rather unfinished place.
But we also have to confirm that these locations are all available, and to make sure that we can find out way to there.

On a final note, I will either go as to be under the name of: Travius Trott, Ninny Daft, or Viol Lavendre.
At least if they are available, at the very least I will be Travius Trott.

Feather, because unicorn.  You'll recognize me if you've seen my avatar long enough.  6pm GMT might be a bit early and conflict with my school schedule though, since I'm in California (West America).  Can the meeting be 8pm GMT?  And clubhouse sounds quick to get to without being too crowded (it's just a treehouse)
Title: Re: [Herd] Travellers Blessing.
Post by: Rissian on 2012 Sep 27, 02:42:11
Hmm I can probably handle any time you guys pick since I'll be home for friday saturday and sunday. My time zone is CST, so if anyone wants to PM me when the get together is once everyone settles on a time. I'll probably be on the forum all day as well.

By the way Magus that's not a mod, that's a special mode you unlock when you beat the game after collecting all 8 pages. And one more thing I can't remember.

Umm, of what I gather, you plan to be online tomorrow(Friday), but I must ask, is it going to be set up that early?
I thought it would first be up somewhere abouts 3-8PM Central american time.

I just felt I had to mention this, as it would be a bummer if all tried to get on early and at the same that our plan was to meet that time.
So, shall we also have a backup time, just in case?

And, is it then decided that it will be at the CMC clubhouse?
Title: Re: [Herd] Travellers Blessing.
Post by: Morgan Sententia on 2012 Sep 27, 11:03:32
Will do Julius! B)

Am sensing there will be lots of Pegasus's flying around this weekend, covering the skies....*twitch twitch*....I think I'll be Amtrack (earth pony) or just me (Pegasus), either way it will only last till the weekend, then it closes up. So i want to examine everything possible, even if i have-ta be a Pegasus. And yeah I'll be on everyday this weekend, even at night. Plus cmc clubhouse is fine with me, if i can find it.
Title: Re: [Herd] Travellers Blessing.
Post by: rhyme writer on 2012 Sep 27, 13:06:00
I'll either be Rhyme Writer or Slendermane. As far as i know Sweet Apple Acres and Ponyville will be up for sure. The pre alpha demo video had them finished somewhat. And the CMC clubhouse is part of SAA and they had it constructed as well.

Welcome to Traveller's Blessing, Jonnekunigas! I hope you enjoy your stay in this herd.

Also, I was wondering what server will be the 'official' server for the herd upon release when random disconnects and shut downs aren't(as much of) an issue. Any ideas?
Title: Re: [Herd] Travellers Blessing.
Post by: Ezio Auditore da Firenze on 2012 Sep 30, 15:15:15
Hello, and welcome to the herd everyone that I've missed (again!). So, I just have a question to those who had a chance to play the game. What's it like?
Title: Re: [Herd] Travellers Blessing.
Post by: rhyme writer on 2012 Sep 30, 15:20:16
That is a good question. Another one is if this guild will rp its roles. Ponies helping ponies not players helping players. That also might dictate which server we use

And as far as we can tell, it is pretty much your typical mmo. Except its g/y7/pg (i dont know) rated its ponies. But as far as indepth mechanics and skills and such, not much is known except to unicorn skills and pegasi flight.
Excuse the excessive typos. My phone is glitchy and has issues putting down everything i type
Title: Re: [Herd] Travellers Blessing.
Post by: Julius on 2012 Sep 30, 15:28:52
The game is AWESOMETASTIC Ezio and you should play it at least once. You have untill tomorrow!

As for a server, well I don't know. I'd like to be where everyone plays. I have a nice enough Internet connection and a great computer, so I don't mind playing in a certain server.

A good example would be the Luna server. That was running from a laptop in Sweden (I think SweB's), and I was having no lag in there at all.

And to answer Slendy's question, I read it right here in the forums. I think they posted that on their Facebook.

Role playing? Not really my thing. I'll just be me (And that's who I play as, me as a pony. I try to make him look like me as much as I can, giving him my own style, therefore creating myself as a pony). ^-^

To end this post, So far it's like any other MMO. Very basic and stuff. But that's how it is now. This is certainly going to be unique once it is done. I'm sure.

A fine example would be flying... And I'll leave it at that. :]

Hmm. How about if you're greeting, "welcome to traveler's blessing.may your your travels be warm and welcome from Princess Celestia's sun."
If it's a farewell, "farewell,fellow traveller.you'll always be one of us in our hearts.May you're future travels be lit by Princess Luna's beautiful,dim, moonlight.
If it's bad,i'm sorry. I have the flu so i can't think straight. >.<

Um, I admit, I do quite like this better than the sillier ones above.
But I think the farewell should be without the 'dim' prefix for Moonlight, just that if wishing goodwill then one should mention the 'badstuff' so to speak. Umm, I think I will give a try at rewriting these lines:
"Welcome to the Traveler's blessing, may your travels ever be warm under Celistia's sun."
"Farewell fellow traveller, may your future Travels be ever warded under Luna's beautiful moon."

Why do I always end up making it should a bit like some monastery of sorts with those lines?
Again, I'd say these lines, if ever decided upon, will be something that an associate may, if one wants to, say as a farewell, or greeting, with some alterations that is.

I've also been eating looooooooots of Apples since I started watching ponies, almost on a daily basis. :]

I bet Applejack would be proud of me! :D

I haven't sick in about a year which is surprising me. Maybe its cause of my almost daily veggie intake.

To be honest when I get sick (90% of the time it's either the common cold or flu) I just rest and wait for it to wear off. No need to take potentially useless medication.

So the new LOTRO expansion came out, the Riders of Rohan, and I got the game patched and everything and tried it out. Almost an hour later I started getting crazy lag spikes here and there, and 20 minutes further in the game client crashed for the first time since I upgraded my computer. I checked the Task Manager and I was stunned. What kind of  game eats up 2 GB of my memory (42% of my remaining free RAM)?

"Welcome fellow travelers, and blesséd may your travels be."

These were cool too:
Quote from: Travius Trott on 2012 Oct 03, 11:35:26"Welcome to the Traveler's blessing, may your travels ever be warm under Celistia's sun."
"Farewell fellow traveller, may your future Travels be ever warded under Luna's beautiful moon."

Eloquent, but too long.

"Welcome to travelers blessing (sounds like the name of an inn); may Celestia shine brightly upon your journey."
"Farewell, traveler. May luna light your path."

I definitely like the second one. One wouldn't even need to say "Farewell, traveler." The "May Luna light your path" could be the farewell itself.

Reminds me of something like... "Go with Celestia's light." or "Fair winds and fly well." (as by Fjord Mustang)
"You walk on warm sands."

Fancy some Apples? Use Apples instead of Cherries. :]

Want the best of both worlds? Use both!

And I'm super excited for the opener of Season 5, airing next Monday 12 November! (I picked a good time to catch up.)

I might check it out; TBH, the only cartoons I've ever watched were Avatar/LoK and MLP. Kind of curious to see if there's other similar quality stuff in Western cartoons these days.

Regular Show and Adventure Time are pretty awesome I loved the zombie episodes of Adventure Time, and Regular Show is like a cartoon that starts off pretty calm in the episodes then suddenly everything gets random and weird in a hilarious way.

I've been pretty busy lately, but I'm considering picking up SWTOR again now that it's gone free to play. If I do go back to it, I'll probably be playing Empire side on the Ebon Hawk server, if anyone else wants to check it out.

I've actually been playing Mario Party a lot, lately. I must be a masochist, because it's fun to me, albeit frustrating.
Just don't play it with friends or family, because it's sure to ruin relationships! ;D

Favorite game of all time? I'd have to say Mega Man X6. I've spent a good portion of my childhood with this game. People don't like it very much, but it's great, to me. I do despise Blaze Heatnix's stage, though (except for the music, of course!). Darn donuts!

I like you now. Unless you didn't mean me, because then you will regret it. :<


Hey, I don't see any other background ponies here.  :P

Quote from: Octavia on 2012 Nov 20, 00:09:38I must be a masochist [...] Favorite game of all time? I'd have to say Mega Man X6.


YEP. I do like the X series though. (Haven't actually played 6, but I've seen videos and heard rants.)

And I have some fond childhood memories (3rd grade-ish) of playing Mario Party games with my friends. Great fun, although of all the ones I played (1, 4, 5) the first one seemed by far the best.

It's great to see another fan of the series. And, well, X6 does have its flaws. In my opinion, its main flaws lie in its level designs (some of them are just brutal!). However, if you're willing to dismiss those flaws as part of the challenge, then it's actually not that bad! Well, better than X7, at least. That game was a mess, haha. The voice acting in that game was just abysmal!

To be honest, I've never played the Mario Party games until now, so I can't say I can relate to that. I've just recently gotten Mario Party DS, and have been playing it a lot ever since. Though, I am thinking of getting the Wii versions now.

Oh, Octavia, you've read my mind. XD
But a big favorite of mine is metal gear solid, for some reason.

No but seriously. X6 and mario party. yes.  :]

It is most definitely the cardboard box, yes. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y99LB6ncnHU) And the fact that it's actually just a movie, disguised as a video game!
Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater has got to be my favorite, though. That game has such great storytelling! And also, the ladder boss (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2FfN4606L5A).

Twilight Princess is another great game, though. One of my favorites, right next to Super Mario Galaxy. I just love the music in that game! (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-z2kxFCQ_mQ) (The levels where you had to clean up trash (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_b9MK0q90h4) were an absolute pain to go through, though...)

@MGS3 - yeah, that one was excellent (and "SNAKE EATERRR" popped into my head as soon as you mentioned ladder boss...) It's one of my favorites in both gameplay and plot (and ludicrous Kojima weirdness). I may almost be tempted to buy the 3D version when I get a 3DS  :/

Twilight Princess - hey, I was just playing that earlier today, and I was about to play SMG... our tastes in video games are eerily similar. I hear Galaxy 2 is fantastic too. I'll probably be picking up Skyward Sword and NSMB soon, though, so... lots of games to get through eventually.

Earth ponies - I think I originally put down "unicorn", but I had a change of heart to EP a month or two ago. Someone's gotta do the bucking, after all.

Indeed. One of the best PS2 games, in terms of both gameplay and plot, in my opinion (It was the most realistic (http://i.imgur.com/4KMn2.png), too!). You can never go wrong with Kojima's strange mind!

I also love the little secrets in the game, like how you're able to defeat The End either before his battle (no damage, except wheelchair to the face!), or by changing the PS2's clock during the battle, or how the length of The Sorrow's river is dependent on the number of enemies you killed. Also, Raikov looks nothing like Raiden, by the way. Nope, not one bit. Oh, let's not forget the time paradoxes. It's these things that make me appreciate a game even more.

They are, aren't they? Super Mario Galaxy 2 is a great game. Though, it didn't quite capture the excitement I got when I played the first one. It just felt lacking, to me. Though, the frustrations from the previous game certainly carried over to this one. I do like the new level select screen, though. Very reminiscent of the old Super Mario Bros. games.

Quote from: lurk852 on 2012 Nov 21, 00:26:05

I got the limited edition of Skyward Sword, that came bundled with that gold-colored Wii Remote Plus. Though, I haven't had much time to play it, yet. But from what I've seen, it is definitely a good game.

Oh, which New Super Mario Bros. are you getting? The Wii version? That game is really fun to play cooperatively, if you can get everyone to work together, that is. Messing with the other players is still a load of fun, though. (I do it all the time!)

Yeah, I always wished I were better at that game + didn't have to worry about food/ammo, because it seems like it could be really entertaining just sneaking around the enemy camps seeing how many bizarre things you could find.

Yeah... I usually avoid buying the same game twice, but I've heard the 3D stuff is done pretty well. There are so many random challenges and unlockables I never bothered with before, I could get quite a lot of time out of doing all that.

Say, if you're such a fan, there's a good chance you've seen this already, but just in case: you should check out Hiimdaisy's comics about the first three games. They're fantastic, at least if you have a weird sense of humor; after I read through one of them for the first time, for the next few days I'd randomly remember part of it and burst out laughing, which was sometimes kind of problematic. You can find 'em here (http://s31.beta.photobucket.com/user/peachifruit/library/hiimdaisy/mgs), but they're arranged kind of inconveniently... I zipped the third one here (http://www.filedropper.com/mgs3), if you haven't seen them before.

I'm thinking of picking up that system within the next few months, but I know the 3DS version got worse reviews than the other three. (Huh. Looking at reviews right now, I only just realized there was a DS version.)

When I first played it years ago, it was on Very Easy mode, haha. That EZ Gun was great to have. It allowed me to get through the entire game without actually killing anyone, save for the bosses. Food and ammo aren't really that hard to find later in the game, though. And it is fun just sneaking around, because there are just so many hidden areas in the game! Though, I enjoy messing around with the guards more.

Indeed. I only buy a game a second time, on another console if the new additions to it are worth the money and time. If it's just a port, however, I usually skip it. (...Being able to watch the cutscenes in HD was actually the reason I bought the HD collection, haha.)

Well, from what I've heard, the 3DS version is just a lazy remake, only with a few new things added to it, like that silly coin rush mode. I haven't played it for myself, so I can't really say much on the matter.

The DS version, though, was probably the best out of the New Super Mario Bros. games, in my opinion. I still play it from time to time. It's really great. Everything was just so fresh and new with that game.

That seems like a really low limit, especially when you count alts. MMOs I've played all had guild member limits in the neighborhood of 500.

This... This isn't standard for MMORPG's right? I mean, I know I don't play a lot of them but... SIXTEEN POINT FIVE GB's?!

And that's just the installer. :I

Highest I've downloaded was around 5 GB's at most.

Edit 2: Yep, It's Champion. 879 MB's done. :l

Edit 3: Decided to go ahead and create the account. Julius was taken, and it's most likely taken in game too. If it's not available, I'll be DoesItWorksJay. 1.0 GB Done.

Last Edit: 9.5 GB's. Falling asleep due to boredom (And totally not because it's 5:52 A.M.), don't want to leave untill it's finished for fear of the download stopping if the laptop goes to sleep. :c

It was too empty, even after completing the introduction. In fact, no one else spoke in the entire time it took me to complete that. I got bored. I deleted it.

Hey hey don't just quit like that :(
There are many many many people playing Gladden (and let's not even talk about the whole game!).
It's normal for places to be empty in the introduction and directly once you finish it. When you go to Bree or other places (Snowbourn the current end game 'town' has 40-50 people a day) you will probably find them bustling with players. Even when I first started the game I thought "why isn't anyone talking to me?" - then as I played on I met lots of people. So dun give up!

Hi Trixster!

Ahaut, sorry man, I just wasn't enjoying it very much. X3
that's a shame.  The game doesn't usually pick up until around level 20, when you get a mount, one-hit-kill moves, no-sell moves and other such awesomery.  And you usually can get into a kinship by level 10.  You essentially quit one hour away from all that :P  your choice, though.  I should have show you my lvl 50 loremaster, I think you'd like the eagle and "light from the sky" move.

LOTRO always seemed interesting to me, I have yet to give it a try though. Is the game entirely free? As in, you can unlock everything, and do everything, without paying a cent? If that's so, I may have to give it a whirl soon.

yes indeed, you can unlock every single area in the world simply by doing quests and completing deeds.  Just be sure not to waste your "turbine points" on silly things, save them for quest packs, and you can fly through the game without paying a single red cent.  I've gotten all the way to Moria on deeds alone (although I will admit to signing up at the last minute when I got tired of running around to "kill 100 slugs" for tp), and my mounts were from holiday events (though the riding ability took a few exploration deeds).

Everything, minus a few extra inventory spaces, side-quests and the riding ability, is completely free with no deeds necessary all the way up to level 20.  By the time you get there, you should have already finished the deeds in the various locations you're in (killing goblins in Ered Luin, wolves in the shire, orcs in the Lone Lands, etc etc).  And by completing said deeds you'll have earned between five and twenty-five tp per deed.  Mounts and QPs usually take around 100-200 tp, easily done if you work at it.  I'd recommend creating multiple characters and getting a third or fourth character in, just to repeat the deeds and get even more tp for use at your leisure.

Does that mean I can combine the TP from multiple characters all onto one account? That sounds incredibly useful if so.

indeed, all the TP from your characters go to your account, and you can send items and money between characters with the mail system as well, and if you have enough gold you can purchase a house for extra storage when your vault is too full.  I think you get rewards and TP for finishing the housing quest.  It's rediculously easy to make TP just by shooting/stabbing everything in sight as you go along, especially in "wild" areas between towns and stuff.  Also a fast way to level up when you're not questing.

Remember to keep everything you have, no matter how useless it looks, because at the end of your run you can always go to a vendor and sell it.  Yes, they buy EVERYTHING, down to ripped hides and broken blades.  You could also save about fifty of these "useless" items per inventory slot and turn them in for XP if you find a task bulletin board, usually in town centers like Bree or Hobbiton.

The only caveat is that once you pick a server, such as Gladden if you want to join Julius and Ahaut or Withywindel if you want to join me, you're pretty much stuck, and you can't easily transfer anything between servers.

Post by: Plumeria Paradise on 2012 Dec 06, 01:07:54
I've gone every year since I was little so it's almost like a second home to me
I probably know the Big Island better than I know my own neighborhood.
My dream is to live there someday. On mauna kea, as you're going up, you start to ascend into the clouds (it just looks like mist while you're up there) and I want to be able to say I live in the clouds
Evergreens grow up there, and it's only like an hour drive to the beach, so it's definitely my dream location.
I live in OK now so it's the EXACT opposite. I can't wait to get out of this (excuse my french) redneck hellhole.
Also, if you go there Julius, there are some pretty decent hotels for cheap. They don't have heat or AC but you don't need it. Get a decent rental car and you're set. You won't want to do anything but sleep at you hotel anyway.
The farmers markets are open every day, and they sell fruits and vegetables. I once saw a squash as big as my leg. It's totally easy to thrive there on a tight budget if you know what you're doing.
Waipio Valley, Mauna Kea Observatories, and rainforest treks are so much fun, and you do it all for free (as long as you have 4wheel drive)
Waipio Valley's road descends at like a 20% angle or some crap. It's scary as hell but it's worth it once you see the wild horses and the blacksand beach at the bottem. Just beware of locals...omg they can be meanies xD

You can ski on mauna kea in the winter.

Reason to join: I always spend a long time travelling in games. I've always dreamed of flying in real life, and I've always loved games that allow it. Since I'll be a pegasus I imagine I'll fly from place to place a lot. Being a sort of guide or friend for an area or for passersby sounds good. I also like the idea of being in a big herd with lots of other ponies, and this seems like a pretty big one. :D

Ah, Halo 4. I won't be buying you. You have failed to address the major issues with forge and custom games, especially the general lack of variety found within and customisability of game variants.

I will probably rent it to play through the campaign once, though.

But there's still Christmas! And even so, winter breaks and retrospective perspectives and whatnot allowing, everything will work out!

I myself don't have many. I'm playing Borderlands 2, reading Dune, and I'd like to practice accordion, and maybe get a little bit of work done on one of my games. (Oh! And meet up some friends from high school!)

My family is celebrating Christmas this evening, so that should be fun.

Nope! Not D&D, surprisingly. (I actually want to play Pathfinder.) That is what I've heard for D&D, though. Gotta be mage, cleric, or warrior, if I recall.

It is a system of the GM's design, called Forgotten. It is a mystery game taking place on a world tidally locked with its sun, with a barren desert light side, a swampy dark side, and a vast network of rooms and corridors all deep underground called the core (although I imagine they're more in the lower crust / upper mantle).

From the description on the game development site (http://doubleactiongames.com/?page_id=133), it "is a a 'science fantasy' game whose canon is intended to be loose and vague to encourage innovative, explorative campaigns. Players step into the role of an adventurer on a bizarre and dangerous alien world inhabited by 15 unique races. Death comes quickly to the unprepared here, so combat focuses on defense and anticipation to keep the party alive. It's equally suited to open-world, story-based, dungeon-based, and survival horror gameplay." And it doesn't have a level system, and the basic weapon is the chain saw...

My character specialises in powers with huge AoE to blow everything up.

Sounds most interesting, I daresay.
Mainly, due to that I myself am a bit working on my own 'system', though that, I shall not derail into unless one is curious to hear about it.

So, your character will likely be the kin to throw spells/attacks of grand scale with very dramatic effects?
Pray, I'd love to hear more about this, if you care to tell about it that is. ^-^

I'd love to hear about your system.

The whole thing about my character is that it has powerful spells, but none allow me to choose specific targets. Rather, the spell specifies conditions, and the creatures (enemy or ally) that fit those conditions are the targets of the spell. So I have to use them carefully, lest I kill everyone in my party, including myself.

Umm, though my system is still only in it's concept phase and likely it will be changed a lot till the time I am done, all I am sure of is that it will be heavily based around magic or 'Aether powers' as they are called in the concept, especially how the primal elements act with each other is something I need to work out and simplify.

Though, that concept is also something peculiar, magic that get set perimeters for targeting, most useful, but also extremely dangerous if used wrongly.

Yes. It is an interesting idea, and assuming there is a lot of combat in our campaign, I should quite enjoy it.

I have wondered about how such a magic system would work, myself. Almost like a type of alchemy. Creating an algorithm for the effects of any given combination of the basic elements that maintains sufficient variety would be interesting, though. Perhaps some vector function involving a mapping of whatever space those elements live in to the effect space. A one-to-one transformation would be best, with a domain containing the entire element space, which would allow every combination to have a unique expression. And if you a sort of wave function involving interference and whatnot, the different elements could interact with each other in rather interesting ways as well.

Title: Re: [Herd] Travellers Blessing.
Post by: Travius Trott on 2013 Jan 18, 18:32:13
Well, actually, I plan on for starters to make some 'base combat spells' which holds some branches as a way to provide the effects one want to attain in a given spell.
To take an example; Magic-missile, is the most basic combat spell, and for an average person who can cast it can cast it with 5 missiles. From there the spell can be 'upgraded' to have other effects, as adding an element to the mix, throwing more powerful individual missiles, and other effects.

Another thing I wondered about, is the different materials' effect on the 'magic' and that a mage in the setting would more than likely also be able to cast barriers of sorts for protection.

Though, I might also take the MLP:RIM system's way of handling magic into consideration as that system, while a bit lengthy and troublesome for new players, have extreme flexibility with the creation of spells unique to the character.

Yep, I rant when I talk about RP-systems...

I like it. The less conventional forum colours actually look quite night. And I am a fan of orange.
Title: Re: [Herd] Travellers Blessing.
Post by: Julius on 2013 Feb 15, 23:15:43
The theme? I absolutely loved it before it was even up. :]

The colors... I wasn't a fan at first to be honest but... They slowly grow on you. I don't know why but... I can certainly appreciate them now. ^-^

And hey, look closer at the purple. Notice it looks odd? That's because it's not just a color, it has a design too. Look really close. I just noticed that now, and it looks awesome! :o

I'm sure there's an effect for it somewhere you could layer on to literally every graphic design project you work on ever. Perfect.

Gee, that was some finale.

Post by: Blues-Music on 2013 Feb 18, 10:59:06
I really like the theme. It feels both clear , and dark making me feel easier to identify posts , and sections.

Also yeah the finale was actually so climactic that it almost felt like a show finale instead of a season finale. Not that it's a bad thing.

And, as a final note, I think that since LoE is still working towards being done, there is not much hassle about inactivity here, as long ponies recall they have a character signed into the herd, granted that some might realise they want to join another herd and they they should be welcome to.

Perhaps we could get a poll up for the distribution of the roles within the guild, which would be less work than appending the main post with everyone's names listed by role.

Umm, maybe, although, the same issue as the one with the race pool may appear.

And then I would have to also remove the old one, but yes, it can be done and I will do it if I hear that a good lot supports the idea.

All righty, I reckon I'll join.  WATCHER IS WATCHING.

OC Name: To be announced
Forum Name: Bravo 539
Activity: Random throughout the week, none mid-day on Wednesday, none Thursday from 3:00 - 6:00PM.  My time is California coast.
Planned race: Earth Pony
Reason to join: The pony folks gotta be protected!  ...Plus I'm interested in finding unusual materials.

Another note: This will be my upcoming OC; I know I've tried having Grassblade be the one in the armor I have as my profile image, but honestly, I have to make more than one character some day.  I currently use him for everything.
This new character will be an earth pony, and will be the one associated with the armor in my most recent Deviant Art project.

I just counted up what ponies said they were planning on playing as when they joined, which I have written on the member list on the topic header.

Total seems to be 56 ponies, of which 12 are Earth, 20 are Unicorn, 22 Pegasus, and 2 undecided.
Title: Re: [Herd] Travellers Blessing.
Post by: Sea Foam on 2013 Mar 02, 19:34:17
That poll may be slightly inaccurate, as I no longer plan on playing as a Pegasus.  X3

I was planning on that when I voted in the poll, but, after certain character alterations, I have migrated to team Earth Pony.

(Sea Foam only has one wing, and there's no team One-winged zebra thing I: ))

Well, I think, that it might be that those choosing earth ponies tends to be less loud, as often they are seen as the 'common' pony, having a connection with earth and all.
Which again suggests that earth ponies are more 'down to earth' and thus less attention craving.

Although there are always those choosing a race few openly chooses because it is rare, which is quite alright I admit.
But again, these are all odd theories which may or may not be true at all.

In any case, I would not call it a problem, but more a curiosity to see how many chooses what when they have the chance.
I myself, by now have more Earth-pony characters than Unicorn or Pegasus, but my main character is a Unicorn. Admittedly he tends to show many traits of an Earth-pony and rarely at all uses his magic.

Umm, that, turned out more a rant than meant to.. :I

This is why I made the decision to have my character's wing cut off. She never really needed to fly, so the wings were more superfluous than anything.
To be honest, she gets more use out of one wing than she did with two.  lol

Ahh, but one have to admit, the pool have been suspect to fraud, as more ponies have voted than there is in this herd, thus, not entirely accurate.
and 23.2% is still close to one fourth, meaning that we are only 10% away from one third which may be thought as how the races are balanced in Equestria.

Well, I at least am interested in seeing the distribution of roles. It would make sense to include them in the list of "ponies signed up" for the herd, which is cool, by the way. Thanks for putting that together.

I'll see if I can put something together.

Truth, 2002 is more symmetrical, but in digital font 2005 is much more symmetric.

That aside, I only did look trough the entire thread and gathered what races ponies signed up with, unfortunately.. I also noted somefew members have left the forums for good, some five to seven deleted accounts in all.

But, also, note that even while I did that, I also would say that ponies should not feel pressed to stay on their first choices, many a pony might just change opinion during the long wait.

Man I love your OC backstory thingy.


I have a question though.
When the LoE servers (eventually) come back up, how are you going to fit your character design ingame? You'll have to look like a normal pony with normal traits

Absolutely anywhere and everywhere.  Let's be like ants or something and have the entire herd pour out of a tiny shack when somepony passes by.  That'd scare the hay out of them! lol

Yeah. That was a fun thought. The idea was to have Watchers forming a protective ring around everypony as they carried on their meeting. Pretty silly.

I'd imagine we'd want to meet in tavern-like spaces in the cities. You know, as travelers are wont to do. Of course, those are natural hubs for activity, so we will see. Perhaps going to low-population servers, or if there are guild halls, or we could purposefully set up our meeting areas en-route between major cities. (Here's to hoping that such transitional areas fill out the world, because they are my favourite parts of such games.)

Quote from: The Wandering Magus on 2012 Jun 16, 15:05:02
Far over the Canterlot Mountains tall,
To Luna's keep, Celestia's hall.
Timberwolves howl in the dark;
The dragons come to leave their mark.
The clouds turn pink,
Our spirits sink,
Equestria fell to Discord's might,
But we returned, him for to smite!

But vict'ry was tempered with mourning.
Suffering ponies, our actions scorning
Showed us the pain that Discord had left,
And though we'd won, of joy we were bereft.
For traveller's aid,
A Blessing we made.
From fair Canterlot out to the world
We travelled Equestria with banners unfurled.

And o'er the years our numbers grew small,
For unicorns alone did our group call.
And so at last we opened up our herd,
And in non-unicorns conferred.
And then once more
In days of yore,
We walked the paths Equestrian
To help the lost pedestrian.

Now, long after those dark days,
Our Watchers strong still guard the ways.
And though we finished all our founders willed,
And we with peace the land have filled
We carry on,
With every dawn,
To finish now our herd's new goal:
To help each stallion, mare and foal.

Once again we climb the mountains tall,
In triumph over Discord's fall!
Our friendships held, our honesty stood strong.
Our kindness grew; our laughter in song
A generous gift
Friends to uplift.
The Traveller's Blessing, wanderer's friend,
Equestria's roads we still defend!

Here's an idea: playing OTHER games together? Kindle some kinship in-game (different game, sorry) and out-of-forum.


In other news, cursed quarter system, keeping me from having a schedule that lines up with my friends on the semester system.

I'll still be around though! Not to mention I can be a Traveler once the game is out, so there's that! :)

So with that, I take my leave from the herd. I was planning on giving you guys a better goodbye, but I just woke up from a nightmare after a very stressful day, not really feeling like typing... :c

I'll be there most certainly, as what sort of herd-leader would I be if I didn't appear at every chance I have?

Although I must apologise for being not so active as of late, last few months even, but I have just entered work and my days have become less and less free lately.

So, I do most apologise for not being as active as I ought to be, and I also reconsidered making a RP thread in the roleplaying section, maybe to get an IRC channel up as well for us. Though I can not at all promise anything on those matters, especially since I've seen that this forum's Roleplays have suffered quite the bit..
Thus, admittedly I'll be putting up some rules on the thread that should be followed for the roleplay.

I'd love to hear some feedback upon those suggestions, and whenever I was too late and lazy about thinking of it or not.. But I'm glad to be back to this wonderful herd, happy to see no ill have happened here while I was unannounced away. ^-^

That would be an idea for it, hmm, shall look to it tomorrow and attempt at setting up the topic for this herd's roleplay.


Edit: It is now up and any members of the Travellers Blessing is free to join in!
Also, working on the IRC channel still, I'm wanting a cute bot to do stuff there as well, but it is up in it's rough form, still needing to learn being a channel owner. Also, all rules in our forums apply in it, that I'm most certain they will not be broken is also to be mentioned.
Also, feel free to use it for roleplaying, especially if you're feeling up for some quick act.

I have a question... Can I have more than one OC in this herd?  X3

My *real* OC is an alicorn, but since I can't be an alicorn in-game, I decided I'd just make a pegasus, a unicorn and an earth pony all with the exact same color scheme (since, as far as I understand, each player can have 3 ponies). They'll have different names of course, but essentially they'll be the same pony. Right now I'm leaning toward either unicorn or earth pony for my "mane" pony ;) , depending on exactly how the pet system works for both races. (I <3 pets. A LOT. :3 )


So here's that form thingie:

OC Name: Alasse (primary) / Prisca (secondary) / Sparkle Fly (pegasus)
Forum Name: ssumppg
Activity: On-and-off, I tend to be active in spurts.
Planned race: All 3, leaning toward either unicorn or earth pony as my primary
Reason to join: I love the idea of a loosely structured herd who's main goal is to help others. ^-^ (Plus the whole "traveler" thing reminded me of Doctor Whooves. (: <3 <3 )

Oh, but of course it is permitted to have more than one character in a herd, and with that I call it most brilliant to see another soul here.

Edit: I was just thinking, if I end up going with unicorn as my primary, my secondary may be an entirely different pony... RPing as Doctor Whooves would be really fun (or at least a Time Horse)! :3 But I won't know for sure until I actually play the game. X3

Edit 2: That's it, my earth pony's going to be a Time Horse with the exact same color scheme as my other two. :D Settled! :nod: Still don't know which will be my primary... X3

I also look forward to the new weekend of open servers. Canterlot's looking cool. It's good to see such steady progress being made on this game. Hopefully I'll be able to play this time. The jiggly hair is certainly cool.

Certainly I'll grant Sotha's request, and I have just done that, but I'd like to have a confirmation on the melody for the song before putting it up, as it'd be a grand thing to note on the 'song'.

As for the beta weekend, I myself have few plans, safe for that I have to be away most of the Saturday morning to afternoon in Danish time for some other personal event. But while there, I'll likely just be looking around where-ever I can, likely ending up doing some silly things with friends and members of this herd.

I also do notice that neither the IRC nor the roleplay thread I set up is being used at all, merely to remind that I have put both up, although I shall also link to the IRC channel on the main topic.

I think it's done! Listening to it a couple of times to see if i shall record the voice again.  :D

Must say some of those words were hard to pronounce! No worries though, it all worked out. Hahaha. lol

If you ever want something in Spanish though, i'm your man!

Wait... Near the end... On "We climb the mountains tall", for some reason, i said "We Flind". FLIND? Oh well, guess i'll re-record the voice.  :P

Shall be ready in less than 30 minutes though.


It is complete! I will upload it now. I ended up adding two vocal tracks with vocal reflection (One loud and the other one quiet, volume-wise), which ended up making the whole thing even more Psychodelic/Epic.  :D

I think it's done! Listening to it a couple of times to see if i shall record the voice again.  :D

Must say some of those words were hard to pronounce! No worries though, it all worked out. Hahaha. lol

If you ever want something in Spanish though, i'm your man!

Wait... Near the end... On "We climb the mountains tall", for some reason, i said "We Flind". FLIND? Oh well, guess i'll re-record the voice.  :P

Shall be ready in less than 30 minutes though.


It is complete! I will upload it now. I ended up adding two vocal tracks with vocal reflection (One loud and the other one quiet, volume-wise), which ended up making the whole thing even more Psychodelic/Epic.  :D

Here is the Traveler's Blessing (http://soundcloud.com/doesitworksjay/travelers-blessing). Enjoy, my friend.

Hi there! :)

So, a few things. First, for some reason the name "Alasse" isn't allowed, so I'll be using Alase instead (unless this gets changed & I can use Alasse in the future). Second, I've decided that I like Earth Ponies so much that I probably won't be making a Unicorn or Pegasus until the full game is released. :3 And third, I would love to be a "Guide". ^-^ Not sure how the process works for that... X3

I did get to play the game and I had a blast! After I did some exploring of my own and completed as many quests as I could find, I spent my time helping others find their way around Equestria. My absolute favorite place is the Everfree Forest, and I loved helping ponies find their way out. ^-^

Oh, and book hat is best hat. :D :P

Edit: I have a character page now. :D http://forum.legendsofequestria.com/index.php?topic=7962.0

Edit 2: How do you resize the banners for your signature? I want to use the "Guide" one. :)

Well you know... we still wish to be allies while the Silver wage war and fight against the Crimsons and Shadows. We wish to exchange knowledge, give each other supplies and talent... We will not retaliate should you deny us (unless you dare to attack the Silver Clan).
I will label conditions and more major points should you agree to begin talks.

Well, it would appear rather new herd, the Silver Clan, have asked for an alliance.
But before I'll rush in and make a decision on this, I'd like to hear the opinion on the matter from herdsponies here.

I also apologise for not being as much active while on the stresstest, and for using another character most of the time.
But I had a rather busy weekend and things to do on the Monday.

Well The Silver Clan wishes for a standard Neutral Pact Lasting until December 31st, 2018. Here are the major points of the agreement.

  • Both sides will be able to ask each other for supplies, tools, or talent at any time at all. However the other side that would send the said things can reject at the risk of them losing the allied ship.

  • The Traveller's Blessing will be recognized as an ally of the Silver Clan, and there forth an ally of our other ally, the Warriors of Harmony. 

  • Both sides Must add each other's guild leaders as honorary ranks within each other's guilds

That agreement needs work;  specifically, the second part of the first bullet.  It shouldn't be phrased as such; since it implies that the agreement is potentially null, if one side doesn't do what the other side asks...
you should amend the agreement to not include such an implicating statement, and simply leave the option not to help if the party in question does not feel like it.
After all, an alliance is under the assumption that both sides would normally wish to help (or at least not get in each others way), and as such, both sides should understand that there can often be good reasons not to.

Well that's my two cents.  I'm not familiar with those guilds enough to make any further opinion on the matter.

I would recommend a negotiation of the terms and conditions of the alliance, and the consideration of a different set of agreements with Warriors of Harmony first before alliance with the Silver Clan.  Given their past history, blindly accepting conditions on the Silver Clan's terms would be unwise.  Given the seniority of the Travellers Blessing, it should be the Blessing which lays out the conditions of any agreement, on the Blessing's terms, not on a new group's terms.

I, Feather Scroll, Bard of the Blessing, so declare my position.

Addition: I agree with Rundo's analysis of the conditions given and the recommendation of amendment.

If you want to make your own Terms and Conditions, go right ahead. However I will head Rundo's Advice and go ahead and Make it have less Loopholes.
(Original Below)
Both sides will be able to ask each other for supplies, tools, or talent at any time at all. However the other side that would send the said things can reject at the risk of them losing the allied ship.
The Traveller's Blessing will be recognized as an ally of the Silver Clan, and there forth an ally of our other ally, the Warriors of Harmony.

  • Both Side will be Able to ask each other for Supplies, Tools, or Talent at anytime at all. However if the other side denies such other things without Justification. The Alliance ship will end.

    • Should either side be discovered in passing along the Supplies, Tools, or Talent along to another guild without either side's Knowledge will result in a immediate Dissolvement of the Alliance



If the Traveller's Blessing agrees to it, I will make a much more formal document acknowledging the Alliance. You are also welcome to challenge or add to my proposal  [/list]

DD: ugh, that doesn't help...  Justification is a loose term; and making the alliance require this rule, is actually the problem I was addressing...  usually an alliance starts with the guilds simply assisting each other, when-ever they can; and if one side isn't contributing enough, a meeting to discuss the state of affairs is held.

>:/ I WILL SAY THIS... NO GUILD MEMBERS SHOULD BE FORCED TO DO WHAT ANOTHER PLAYER SAYS.   It's OK to request help and to have a group of individuals who willing help each other, but this shouldn't be a commitment; especially across guilds.

:l frankly speaking it's OK to have rules to follow, and things players shouldn't be doing (for RP sake.)  but an alliance should never force members into an uncomfortable position.

:nod: after all, and this is important... an alliance can end if either side no longer wishes to uphold it.  there is no need to add a rule that states that disobedience (even if there is no justification) is cause for the alliance to cease.




also since when did this become the type of agreement where we are not allowed to assist others outside of the alliance... >:/

THAT EXTREMELY UNDERMINES THE PRINCIPLES OF THIS GUILD.  >:O

please research the guild you wish to make an alliance with first before making such rules... :l




the following would be a lot more reasonable:

  • Both sides will be able to ask each other for permission, for supplies, tools, or talent.

  • The Traveller's Blessing will be recognized as an ally of the Silver Clan, and there forth an ally of our other ally, the Warriors of Harmony.

  • Both sides Must add each other's guild leaders as honorary ranks within each other's guilds

The reason I implemented the "Not passing along the Supplies, Tools, and Talent" Is that I don't want other becoming powerful for an agreement that should only be between us two (or three). The Silver Clan by its RP Nature is secretive, and very isolationist *entering Le RP*. Only recently we have broken the said Isolationisim in our recent war with the Crimsons and Shadows. We finally decided that our clan would benefit overall if we began allying with others. *RP Mode ended*
I do agree with the terms above, I just want to make sure that the tools and talent we give you doesn't end up where we want it.

Post by: Ründo on 2013 Jul 11, 23:10:33
hmmm well I can understand that concern.... but the issue is, this guild was founded to assist others in need, in general.  We really can not back down on that  -.-; so if you wish to have an alliance with us, you will have to consider that any rescourse's given to us, might end up being used to help others outside of the alliance.  Granted this does not mean we will simply take your things, give them away, and not give you something in return.  but it's highly likely that we'll ask for help, giving help to others.  If you do not feel like participating in these activities, then making an Alliance with us might not be desirable for you.

But if you feel that you are willing to tolerate our guild's ways,  I am sure we would be happy to ally with you.  :D

Well, I am most certain that does conflict with this herd's purpose of being of assistance to those unfortunate or inexperienced.
Most certainly we would provide resources to not only one group, but any that asks without sounding demanding.
Thus I add that 'not passing supplies, tools, and talent' would quite defeat this herd's very purpose indeed.

So, just as Ründo said, we'd most surely go into an alliance if there is no restriction to our very purpose.
Also as Sotha spoke, neither would it be mindful of this herd's purpose if we as a whole end up taking a side in any form of war.

I am happy to see a herd as ancient as ours come to light, but I am afraid your therms are too strict on us and would make this herd without purpose.

The entire purpose of the Traveler's Blessing, since its inception, was to defend the Travelers of Equestria, no matter what race, what background, and what nationality.  For over two thousand years the Blessing has fought everything from bandits and hydras and Ursae to Discord Himself, as you can plainly see in our Herd's background and anthem.

It may be true that our original herd was unicorn-central, being founded after all by unicorns, but in the end each of us solemnly swear to defend and lend aid to any traveler that requests it.  Should ANY traveler be put in danger or threatened by ANY group, our Watchers would be oath-bound to assist the traveler.

The Clan's history of declaring war on other groups and belligerent and demanding attitude is entirely contrary to the purpose and focus of the Blessing.  While the Blessing would not make war upon or attack any Herd for reasons beyond self-defense, it must be noted that Clan members who willfully attack travelers place themselves in the dangerous position of attacker, and the Watchers of Roads will be obligated to act.

Furthermore, making war upon Equestrian soil is tantamount to supporting anarchy and Civil War within Equestria, which is also entirely contrary to the purpose of this Blessing, namely, to keep the peace on all roads within Equestria so that any traveler may journey from city to city and from town to town without fear of danger.  To threaten war upon this land is to threaten war upon the Blessing itself, and upon Equestria!

I, Feather Scroll, Bard of the Blessing, so state my case.

The Clan's history of declaring war on other groups and belligerent and demanding attitude is entirely contrary to the purpose and focus of the Blessing.  While the Blessing would not make war upon or attack any Herd for reasons beyond self-defense, it must be noted that Clan members who willfully attack travelers place themselves in the dangerous position of attacker, and the Watchers of Roads will be obligated to act.

Furthermore, making war upon Equestrian soil is tantamount to supporting anarchy and Civil War within Equestria, which is also entirely contrary to the purpose of this Blessing, namely, to keep the peace on all roads within Equestria so that any traveler may journey from city to city and from town to town without fear of danger.  To threaten war upon this land is to threaten war upon the Blessing itself, and upon Equestria!

I, Feather Scroll, Bard of the Blessing, so state my case.

First off, The Silver Clan only wages war because the other clans antagonize us, and besides... Do you even know the history of the Shadow-Silver Conflict? It's been waging for over a thousand year. Some years have been worse than others yes, but we've been at war with them since the fall of Nightmare Moon! Where was the Travellers Blessing all those years ago when we were forced out of our last stronghold, where was the Traveller's Blessing when the Shadows at has at Knife Point! WHERE?
*Out of le RP mode* Can we please keep any hostilities out of any discussion. In RP's Totally go ahead!

*RP*
Where was the Clan when Discord destroyed Equestria?  Where was the Clan when millions starved in the Great Winter and the Twisted Age?  Where was the Clan three thousand years ago when the Godsbane and the Three Hecate brought the First Kingdom to utter ruin, even destroying the Rainbow of Light itself?

The Blessing may not be omnipresent, and it may not have been perfect in defending all travelers in all places at all times, but as each and every stallion, mare and foal of this Blessing will tell you, we will give our very lives for the good of the travelers of Equestria's roads.

Where were you when bandits attempted to rob the caravan from Appleloosa to Manehattan in the Summer of Thirst?  We were there.  We gave our lives so that that caravan could get enough food and water for the mares and foals of that town.

Where were you when the Hydra came out of Everfree and tried to attack Ponyville, chasing after the Sun Princess's Student?  We were there.  We sacrificed so that others would be safe.

Lonely ponies we are, members of the Blessing.  We are hunters, but hunters ever of those who would seek to do ill to the common traveler, for they are found in many places, not in the Shadow's grasp only.

If the Clan, sir, has been a stalwart tower against a united enemy, we have played another part.  Many evil things there are that your warriors and fighters do not stay.  You know little of the conflicts beyond your eternal war.  Peace and freedom, do you seek?  The common foal would have known them little but for us.  Fear would have destroyed them.  But when dark things come from the houseless hills, or creep from sunless woods, they fly from us.  What roads would any dare tread, what safety would there be in quiet lands, or in the homes of simple ponies at night, if the Blessing was asleep, or was gone into the grave?

And yet less thanks have we than you.  Travelers look suspiciously at us many a time, and some country ponies even give us scornful names.  "Narwhal" I am to one fat stallion who lives within a day's march of foes that would freeze his heart, or lay his little town to ruin, if he were not guarded ceaselessly.  Yet we would not have it otherwise.  If simple folk are free from care and fear, simple they will be, and we must be vigilant to keep them so.  That has been the task of this Blessing, while the years have lengthened and the grass has grown.

*end RP*

and yes, that was totally taken from the Council of Elrond chapter of the Fellowship of the Ring.

Mister Siphion, that is completely correct, thus why that any and all alliances we make would be very carefully set. At the least, that is what my mind is set at.

On another note, nopony in this herd is below other members, which is also why I never dictate what alliances we should make or shouldn't, but I would rather suggest the idea and watch what the members thinks of it.
That the best arguments and the majority is what is taken into account of those whom spoke, is the given I dare say.

Well, it was actually more High Fantasy, a live roleplay to be exact, and I admit that I have no idea of what SCA is, I can only assume it's an association for medieval fairs and events in the United States of America.

So, I do some sword-fighting, but my regiment used mostly Halbards in the event where we functioned as the peace-keepers for the most part.

Oh, and I'm back!
The Event was cozy, but a fair bit too hot for me, as I wore a black/white uniform trough the hottest and most sunny days of this year.. But it was grand nonetheless!

it's the Society for Creative Anachronisms; members forge-weld their own swords, smith their own armor, carve their own bows, fletch their own arrows, and do everything almost exactly as they were done during the medieval ages.  They get permits from local governments to perform live and very real jousting and archery tournaments, and people do break limbs or lose fingers if they're not careful, but most of the time if you follow the rules and keep your weapons peace-bonded you're pretty safe.

glad you enjoyed your day!

It looks pretty cool if you ask me, linking back to the OP. Sneaky, sneaky.

So I've been volunteering in a chemistry lab for the last 5±1 months, but it's got me tired, and conflicts with either my music if not my schoolwork. I'm afraid I might soon have to quit, without even completing my first project.

Um, hardly active, but most certainly side-tracked here as well.

Apologies, but I will certainly be more active once this game is, in a playable state.

understandable lol  they... kinda probably need to start working on the UI and stuff now, now that they've gotten at least a few locations down.

Welcome to you!
It is brilliant to have anyother pony signing up, even after this while of relative inactivity.  ^-^

I'll go write you up on the topic header right away!

I found this herd and think it sounds awesome. I love traveling but I haven't roleplayed in a LONG time nor am I one for forum roleplays. However this is a cool idea. I have a question actually when the game comes out maybe something like how the Khajiits set up their caravans in Skyrim would be in place with different groups traveling different routes but still all part of the same herd and every caravan meeting up every so often? I might join. OC name:(I am bad at anmes will think of one later) Forum Username: Gharial Activity: Well I'm kinda quiet but I do check the forums I'm subscribed to at least once a day. Planned Race: PEGASUS! Reason to Join: Well I always love exploring and traveling so that basically what I end up doing in most games something tells me LoE wont disappoint in this aspect so why not join a herd that emphasizes this aspect of the game? :3

Greetings, and welcome to this herd!
To answer the question, I say that would depend upon if it would be possible to set up shop someplace, and upon if the ponies in this herd would like to meet up like such.
I will write you up upon the in but a moment.

We dont neccisarily have to sell things just have a similar design for our troupes tribes caravans? Whatever we want t call the groups. We travel the roads with groups f travelers acting as guide and guards but still travel in similair units is what I meant.

I'M BAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAACK ovO ovO ovO

So, you know when I signed up that said I wanted to have three characters in this guild? That may be just two characters now: my earth pony and my unicorn. After playing all three races I think I figured out how I want to play each race. My earth pony is now Alasse (instead of Alase) and my unicorn is Iridescent Scale (instead of Prisca). I'm not sure which guild my pegasus will be in, but I'd like him to be in a guild that's allied with this one, or at least friendly with this one. Do we have a list of those?

Thanks! <3 0:)

Edit: Then again, my pegasus may just join this one and be a part of The Watch or something. Is that okay? Can I have three ponies in the guild, all with different roles? X3 Pleeease?

Welcome back!
Well, I do recall that and I see.

I'll go change the information in the topic header right away then.
But no, we don't really have much a list of herds we are allied with, as the only herd we had a proper one with went to other games.

And I certainly see no reason why not that your different characters should have different roles, in fact I'd encourage it as the characters surely have different personalities and would act better in different roles.

How have you been while you were away, I dare ask.

Yay! So Alassë will be a Guide, Iridescent Scale will be a Tracker (specializing in finding items; Alassë is much more likely to find lost ponies :nod: ), and my pegasus, Toshiro Hitsugaya, will be a member of the Watch. By the way, is it correct to say that he's a Watcher? I've seen it both ways so I'm not sure. X3

I've been alright. Lots of real life stuff going on. I'm happy to be back though. ^-^

OC Name: Forest Blitz

Activity: (This means how active we are, right?) Pretty high. I'm on this forum almost every day, even when away from home. When the game comes out I will not be able to access it as much as I do the forum (unless it somehow runs on my phone...) but I will try to be on as much as is possible.
Planned Race: Pegasus
Reason to join: I always love having an option to explore and travel in any game that I play (this is one of the reasons Skyrim has kept me amused for so long) and exploring is pretty much exactly what I want to be doing in LoE. To have a big group of ponies to travel with really appeals to me.
^-^


Brilliant!
Grand to see such a active and dedicated member as the first other pony in this herd.
Welcome to this blessing. *Bows*

Um, my apologies, but your joining form to the herd were rejected, due to it being just a quoted copy of the very first submission, with some minor alterations to it.
Please do write up a form using your own words if you really do want to join this herd.

should we be reporting Pinkies to a mod or not? I not 100% sure if the behavior is breaking any rules.  but it seems all they've posted is a bunch of reposts to random parts of the guild sign up boards...some of which aren't even proper signups...  as such the behavior borderlines spam.

Indeed it is almost spam, but only one message for four or five herds?
But it could be reported just to be sure that it were not quite spam.

it's confusing, for sure... though this post definitely looks like spam:

http://forum.legendsofequestria.com/index.php?topic=2831.msg758914#msg758914

It literally is a repost of a guild intro post.  no apparent changes, or even a reason to repost it... it's nothing more than pointless clutter.

*pokes head in* Um, hi? >.<

I noticed that my Pegasus, Toshiro Hitsugaya, hasn't been added to the list yet. He'd be a Watcher (is that the right word for it?).

So, um... how is everypony? X3

Activity: Somewhat new, but I try to check game forums daily. I'll probably be more active once the game hits a closed/open beta stage. I am quite 'socially inept' though.. more of a creeper than a speaker.
Planned race: Earth Pony (though I'm a Pegasus atm to explore the world easier)
Reason to join: I know absolutely no one here at LoE as of yet.. (Nomadic introvert) The easiest way to mingle is to join the club, or so they say.

Other Stuff-
Bio: I'm a 23 year old guy and I'm from Gold Beach, Oregon. (Grew up in Iowa though) I'm not an out going person, though not shy, I'm uhh more of an observer in society always watching and listening. I have a high aptitude for creativity, and logical reasoning.

Hobbies: Cooking, Agriculture, Hunting/fishing, Natural Remedies?, Hiking, Woodworking, Metal Smithing, Gaming, Organizing, and Architecture.

Interests: Science, Music, Animations, European Mythology, Motorsports, Plants, Animals, Martial Arts, Digital Art, Medieval Weapons.

I think that's all.. hehe. Sometimes I tend to ramble on when I'm bored. x3
