The stallion thought he'd heard something against the waves, but the natural quiet of the sand made it difficult to tell.
His steps took him opposite the ocean, where he couldn't hear the waves.
He was moving back up the beach toward town when his hoof hit a stone that had managed to survive on the beachfront.
It hit hard, leaving his front right hoof aching even more than before.  Clutching it for a moment in pain, he could tell this was going to be a problem.  He put some weight on it, but it hurt too much to be used.
Sighing, he resigned himself to the fact that he'd be hobbled for the rest of the day.
"And today was going so well already."  He rolled his dysfunctional eyes sarcastically, even though it was nearly impossible to tell he had.
Slower now, he kept moving.

It was then that he caught scent of something. 
It smelled...Soapy.  Like hair products.  For just a moment, he stopped, considering following the smell to its source.
It would be even more time off his day...But he still had time.

Hey there Game!  You were correct to sign up here, don't worry.
From what I can see, it's because we predate the child board by QUITE a long time, but I can't be sure.

So here's how we work, just in case you didn't know.
Basically, any three existing members can vote to approve or disapprove your character.  If you get three of either, then the motion carries and your character is either legit in the RP, or denied from being used.

Nothing looks wrong here, so I'll be your first vote of approval.
Although...I don't think I've ever seen a wolf being used before.

"...Having received your blessing, I return you to the earth with my gratitude as payment..."
Unseen by anyone, the map that had formed on the waters surface disappeared at the stallions words.
Keeping his eyes closed, he uncupped his hooves and reached toward the saucer.
Gently, it tilted up until the water inside drained out completely.  He then placed it back inside his saddlebag.

Sitting for just a few more moments near the ocean, his thoughts wandered to his compatriot who was hiding somewhere near.
It would take a while to find him, but that's what made it fun.  He grinned slightly and got up to leave.

The purple stallion sighed with relief once his aching extremities touched sand.
It was much softer than the pavement he had been walking on.
He moved up to the water's surface leisurely, he had time.
Once there, he sat for a while and listened to the ocean.  His eyes stared blankly at empty sky.

His saddlebag shifted again.  Quietly, he opened it and moved its sole occupant in front of him.
It was a simple, gold saucer.  Large, lightly decorated on the lip.
He closed his dubious eyes and put his front hooves on the edge of the saucer, moving it toward the ocean.
Waves lapped up further and further until the saucer was full.  Carefully, he pulled it back toward him.  He didn't want to waste a single drop.
Once it was close enough not to be disturbed by the ocean, he let go.  Eyes still closed, he placed his front hooves together and began to mutter to his golden treasure.

Lines began to criss-cross the surface of the saucer, forming a rudimentary map of some unknown location.
A small red light appeared in the middle.  His milky eyes opened and stared blankly at the now moving luminous object.
His target had moved so far already...But that didn't matter.  That wasn't his current order of business anyway.
He closed his eyes again, thinking.

...Right you are, dearie.  Right you are.

...Unfortunately, Bygone was rehabilitated before I could finish that particular plot arc.
I had it all planned out and everything... *Tiny Pout*

Two pairs of purple hooves moved briskly as their owner listened to music on his headphones.
His destination was a small town he'd rather suddenly had the impulse to visit.  Soon enough, it was in sight.
He'd been traveling for quite a while, body aching from the journey.

His milky eyes looked nowhere, but his ears swiveled madly, taking in all the sounds like a starving wolf would feast on prey.
He felt the saddlebag shift its weight.  The cargo he'd been hauling since Manehattan was feeling heavy after being carried so far.
The desire to rest was beginning to set in.

Thanks, Naura.  That should do it for Pleasant.

Eyyyyy, it's Rush.  Looks like it's not so dead tonight after all.
Thanks for the accept, Rush.

I'm afraid not many of us are around tonight, Bun.
Thanks, Fae.

Here I go with another character, can't seem to settle on one lately.

Spoiler: Pleasant Dreams • show
Name:  Pleasant Dreams   (Nick: Please)

Earth Pony, Stallion
Please is an odd one.  He'll greet you happily at one time, and treat you with subtle derision the next.
But if you need something - Or someone - to be found, then he's your stallion.

Age:  28

Eyes:  Filmed over, at first glance seeming completely blind.

Mane/Tail:  Purple, long and wavy, kept up in a single braid.
He doesn't usually have his hair down, but if he does, it's a sure-fire sign of a bad mood.

Coat:  Violet.

Cutiemark:  Two halves of a mirror, shattered down the middle.

Talent:  Finding things, so long as he's properly paid.
Though it's not his talent, he also has some knowledge of herbal concoctions.

Personality:  Two-faced, fractured. 
At one point saying something nice, and at another saying something vicious.
Normally acts like a coward, but those with intuition can tell it's a ruse.

Favored Activities:
Sit unmoving.  For hours.
Confuse others to no end with his duality.
Amuse himself by having previously stated others guess whether he is truly blind or not.

Life Long Aspiration:  Finding something so important, that nopony would be able to deny his talent.

They're adorable, Fae.

It's usually a breath of fresh air when someone says hello to me, so I end up smiling like an idiot and reciprocating their greeting.

You know what else is obnoxious?  When I wanna watch chick-flicks and get weird looks for it.
If I want to watch 13 Going on 30 or Just Like Heaven or even The Notebook then I'm gonna watch them, dangit!

On a similar note, I dislike when others mistake politeness for kindness.
I will be polite to anyone, but kindness isn't something I give out freely.

Hey Grey, if you're listening, how have you and your sister been?
57
Well, I missed Bunny since I wasn't here last night.
Sorry Bunny, I'm glad to hear from you.

Breezecare would be single-payer, though.


How about something nice and friendly, like oh...I dunno...Embracare?

I'm awake and drinking pure caffeine at 4:00 in the morning.
Would you like to know why?

Because of a very big storm.

Tell me about it.  Everything I like to do is detrimental to me in some abstract, difficult to take seriously way.
