Original Characters / OC Interviews #1
2013 Aug 08, 15:05:53
A dimensional traveler moves through time and space in pursuit of interesting beings. He wants nothing more than to sit down, have a chat, and ask a few questions over tea. He's a simple interviewer.

Why not let him have a chat with your character?

The idea of this is pretty simple. Choose a character of yours and answer the questions the way they would! This could be a good little practice for those trying to get into a character's brainy parts.




A stranger in a black coat which covers his face, moves to a table and invites you to sit there too. A cup of tea waits for you there, as well as some cookies.
And after a short introduction, he starts asking.

Please tell me about yourself.

What is a typical day like for you?

What do you do when you are not doing what you regularly do?

Where do you see yourself in the next 5 to 10 years?

Do you have a special somepony in your life right now?

Although we should already know what happened let me recap everything (or at least what i know).
Nox, a giant Snake of ancient times showed up near canterlot. It's intentions were unknown until some ponies tried to fight it off. During the fight, a filly that seemed to have the power to defeat him, was killed.
It was chased away by the princess but it is obvious that Nox will come back someday.

Today is the day of the foal's burial.

Resolved Issues / Stay out of my replies
2013 Jan 08, 18:06:44
Hi there.

When i post somewhere i get it into my replies. usually this is a good thing. But there are some things where i posted where i don't want to have a entry in my replies.

usually i would just remove my posts but in thread games like colts vs fillies this is near impossible.

Is there a function what can make this happen, and if not could it be added?

OOC: http://forum.legendsofequestria.com/index.php?topic=5966.0

Hearts warming eve is near. While some ponies visit other places, prepare for the play in canterlot, or simply enjoy being with their family, the snow starts to fall in and around ponyville.
The whole town is covered in pure white snow and a beautiful white scenery can be seen from the distance. Only the benches are not covered in snow.

This year ponyville has a "winter market". Ponies from the town, outside the town, and even from above, are setting up some Booth's to sell wares from all over the place. Hot chocolate, Apple Cider, Fresh baked bread, Glazed fruits, small presents, and even nuts, and more can be bought.

A few weeks ago Nova used too much power. The result of this is fatal. He lost consciousness after the battle and was brought to the hospital. Nothing was heard from him for a while.

The waiting room is cold even with the heaters on at full blast.  It's not a physical feeling, more of an emotional one.  The stark white of the ceiling lights seem appropriate, given the situation.  Some of the ponies there had known Nova since months, others only recently met him, but either way, the situation was just as shocking. The room was quiet, save for the ticking of the clock and the scratching of the hospital secretary's pen.  Each time the door creaked open, several pairs of ears perked up, then drooped when they realized the call did not concern them.

Some lay here and there, exhausted from a sleepless night and unable to cry any more.  Others were pacing impatiently, glaring at the clock as if willing it to move faster.

Defty Hoof
Spoiler: show
Name: Defty Hoof

Gender: Stallion

Species: Earth Pony

Age: 25

Special talent: He says that his cutie mark means that he is a actor but the truth is that he is a master thief. He is able to steal almost anything as long as it is not too big or in view of the owner.

Residence: Canterlot

His Past: His parents where members of a guild of adventurers. At one of their adventures they took him with them when he was 13. Because of a accident he became blind. Since then he counts on his other senses to live his everyday life.

His Present: Defty makes a living from stealing what he can get. He seems to have other uses for money then just him.
He only steals what others can afford to loose though. Family treasures, objects like engagement rings and pendants, and anything else with emotional value are safe from him.

When he goes out to steal something he usually wears a black full-body-suit to hide his identity.

Appearance:
Spoiler: Defty Hoof • show

Spoiler: Incognito the Thief • show


Cutie Mark:
Spoiler: show


Personality: He is a clever colt and pretends to need help for small tasks to analyze the ponies around him. Despite being smart he often misses a certain point in his plans, resulting in him running away from his enemy. While he is not out to steal something he is like a usual pony: Nice, talkactive, likes to help.

Additional Info:
Usually he relies on his ears and his sense to feel vibrations on the ground. To create vibrations he uses a yoyo instead of a stick.
Years ago he unlocked the full potential of his brain to use PSI abilities.
He only uses PSI abilities while dressed as incognito.


Spoiler: PSI Abilities • show
PSI is the ability to manipulate yourself, your surroundings, or others using the power of the mind. It works by using the brain's full capacity instead of only a part of it. Since this can potentially cause serious damage, comparable with overheating, there is a natural blocker in order to limit the brain's maximum used capacity. PSI itself is divided into three general forms: Burst, Trance and Rise.


Spoiler: Burst • show
Burst, in summation, is the ability to manipulate the world around you. Burst has a number of forms it takes, ranging from the ability to move objects with only your mind, the power to command fire or lightning, or even the ability to manifest solid objects. As if to counteract this, Burst puts a tremendous strain on the user, proportional to the power of their ability. In addition, breaking or even damaging the Burst can lead to a breakdown of the mind or body.

Incognito is able to use Electricity (low strain on the mind) and something that he calls "Anti Matter" (high strain if used too long and often).


Spoiler: Trance • show
Trance, at its most basic, is the ability to manipulate the minds of others. There are less dangerous uses of Trance, such as being able to locate others or communicating between two, or creating illusions. However, unlike Burst waves, Trance thought waves are directly affected by the outside atmosphere and can be blocked by any defense in battles.

He uses Trance to sense minds around him or speak with comrades/enemies over long distances. It seems that this is the only PSI ability that he does not use when he is in battle.


Spoiler: Rise • show
Rise is used to manipulate the user. Rise powers can be subdivided into two types: "sense", and "strength.
Sense-type Rise increases the 5 senses of the user (sight, hearing, taste, smell, and touch) to extraordinary levels and also increases the user's reflexes.
Strength-type Rise focuses on the user's physical body, increasing the body's physical strength, speed, and endurance. It can simply be referred to as Super Strength.

He can enhance his remaining senses to run as fast as a marathon pony and dodge incoming projectiles. He can't do that for a long time though since this would cause a too strain in his mind.
For very short moments he can also increase his strength to punch with a strong force. The catch though is that he will feel the pain from the impact. Because of this he doesn't like to use this part of his power at all.

Since a while he uses a Yoyo to help himself. He fights with it by using it as a mid-range striking weapon, or as a grappling iron. The yoyo is made of steel and he has many of them.

Sky Blaze
Spoiler: show
Name: Sky Blaze

Gender: Stallion

Species: Pegasus?

Age: 23

Residence: Cloudsdale

Appearance:
[spoiler]


His past: He may not look like it but he is a noble in a distant country. However. He didn't like all the rules and limitations and left his home when he was young. He somehow found his way to Cloudsdale and found a job  at Sweet Apple Acres.
To prevent being found by his Family he keeps his past secret to everyone.

His Present: He works at Sweet Apple Acres since he can't control weather. He hunts treasure to make some extra money. If he found too much jewelry he shares it with Rarity and Spike. He doesn't like the feeling of being rich.

Relatives:Unknown since he doesn't talk about it.

Likes: Day, Fire, Food, Dragons, Racing with rainbow dash (although he looses everytime), Fighting strong opponents.

Dislikes: rain and water.

Personality: Acts on his guts feeling. At his best he is passionate and decisive.  At his worst he is shortsighted and destructive.

Favorite Food: Apples, everything spicy

Favorite Season: Summer

Hobby: Training, working at sweet apple achres,

Special talent: Can cover his body in flames. If he impacts somewhere when he is covered in flames he creates a explosion. The power of the pressure and fire depends on his speed.
The flames start at 765mp/h (Mach 1) and increase as he gets faster. When he reaches his top speed he becomes a Comet that is 5 times bigger then himself.

Additional Info:
Takes no damage from his own impacts and has a high pain tolerance.
Has huge amounts of stamina. Thanks to that he can fly for long times without taking a break.
Needs 20 seconds to reach his top speed. (3600mp/h which is almost Mach 5)
Can not reach the speed of the sonic-Rain-boom although he is very close.
Can't control weather.
Instead of focusing on stunts he prefers the basics. Acceleration, agility and speed.
Is proud of his unique eyes.
Values freedom
When he gets exited his mane moves like it's on fire.


Spoiler: Movelist • show
Burning-Saw: By spinning himself horizontal he uses his flames to cut everything in his way.
Flame drill He spins himself around his own axle to create a drill. It's strong enough to drill even through solid rock.
Phoenix Soul Flies big circles to create a small sun in the center. It burns out if he stops.
Fire tornado By flying smaller circles he can create tornadoes. When he gets fast enough he can Ignite them.
Blaze bomb When he stops after reaching mach 1 or higher he can throw his flames at a target.
Comet Impact He crashes on his target covered in flames. His flames may be dangerous but the Pressure from the impact is this move's true power.
Dragon's Breath By breathing in some of his flames while he flies he can breathe fire for a short time.
[/spoiler]

Favorite Food: None

Favorite Season: Spring

Hobby: None

Additional Info:
She uses her wind magic to run faster. Catching her is difficult even for Pegasus Pony.
Her full name is too long so she prefers her nickname Lumi
She can't use the natural levitation spell to pick up objects. When she lifts objects she does it with her wind magic.

Spellist:
Spoiler: show
Wind Magic. Her wind spells are offensive and will probably only be used in battle.
Repulse-force-barrier A shield made from wind. It counters with the same amount of power that was used to attack it. It has a limit though.
Hurricane Gale A powerful blow.
Wind Edge / Blade storm She creates a/multiple sharp blade/s of wind. It can't cut steel but goes through wood like a hot knife through butter.
Vortex / Vortex Bomb She creates a vortex on the tip of her horn and aims for a target to draw it to her. It can pull something as big as a bear without a problem. After a while the vortex bomb will explode and release a powerful multi-directional shockwave.
Wind Step With this spell she boosts her running speed for a while. However. Taking quick turns forces her to slow down.


Water Magic. Her water magic is Strategic. She uses it to slow down enemies of make some distance between them.
Sticky Bubbles It has mid tempo and sticks on the target and is as big as a head. One or two are not dangerous but if there are too many you can't move anymore.
Geyser A sudden stream of water comes out of the ground
Aqua Sphere Creates a sphere around her target. It can be used as a prison or a shield. It has short range
Freeze touch She lowers her body temperature. Whatever touches her will get frozen.


Light Magic  Her light magic is divided: Her healing is only usable outside of battle while the other spells are quick and usable anytime.
Healing touch  She covers a wound in light. The light heals the wound and vanishes. Healing interior organs is possible but takes a lot of time and concentration to heal the wounded completely.
Purification  This spell is used by her to heal a illness. She prepares some water (in a bottle or bowl) and casts this spell on it. The water will start to glow. The ill one drinks it and after a while it will heal the ill one.
Flashlight  A quick and very bright spell. It can blind anyone in range for a short time.
Sanctus  Her only offensive light spell. A ray of light comes down from the Sky and burns her target. This spell is only effective against evil creatures.

Combination Magic. When she wants to combine spells she needs some time to prepare them. The more powerfull the spell is the more time she needs.

A few seconds:
Ice Wall  A Combination of Geyser and Freeze touch. The Ice is crystal clear and almost as hard as steel.
Ice Thread  A Thread made of ice with a higher melt temperature than normal ice (somewhere near 15° instead of 0°). If someone steps on them they make a loud shatter-noise.
Healing sphere  A combination of Aqua sphere an Healing touch. She covers the wounded in water and combines it with her light magic.
Perfect Freeze By lowering the temperature around her she can freeze everything she touches.

Good day everypony.
I know that there already a lot of guilds but that does not stop me from giving it a try too.

Let me give you this invitation to become a member of the Royal Special Forces (or short: RPF)

What are the RPF?
We are friends and comrades. Do you want to fight alongside with comrades you trust? Do you want to chill and have a good dime with your friends?
We will protect and fight to help ourselves and others.
There are no limitations for joining.
How does that sound?


When this game finally comes out i will probably play it all the time. Ergo: You will almost always have somepony to ask for help if you get in troublesome situations.

I don't know what else to say and instead of making impossible things up i would appreciate it if you would take some time and ask for what you want to know.

Please fill out this sign up form if you are interested.

Spoiler: Anthro by Ethereal Nebula • show


His Past: When he was young he lived in a unknown or maybe even hidden village. While he keeps most of his childhood private, he stated that he left home at the age of 15. Since then he has been travelling all over the world.
One day he found a abandoned bandit cave. They left some of their valuables there (Probably because of wild animals of guards that found them) and without thinking too much about it he took what he could and went to the closes city to sell them. It turned out that these valuables have been stolen just a few days ago, and he was imprisoned for this.
He didn't resist at all and waited for the moment he would meet the princess.
As they met, the princess saw already that he can't be one of the bandits, but asked him why he didn't resist at all.
I didn't do anything wrong, so i have no reason to run. Simple as that.
After hearing this the princess let him choose if he wanted to leave, or be a part of the Royal Forces.
Since then he has been a Member of the Royal Forces for special missions.

His Present:Nova still works for the royal forces, and his residence are the knights barracks in the castle of Canterlot..

He likes to help others and even protects caravans and other travelers when they have the same destination. At his best times he is just and protective. At his worst stubborn and Authoritarian.
He is often found diving into a book or spending hours working on a project. He puts in so much effort in learning something, that he lears even complex spells in a matter of a few hours. Although he trusts his own ears more then rumors he is a bit naive and will at least doubt rumors that he thinks are interesting.
While he tends to be booksmart as opposed to streetsmart, he also tends to be a tad socially awkward, but he still somehow manages to help his friends and family with their problems.
He cares very much for his friends and tends to hide his own problems when he knows that they would be worried because of it.

-Keeps his past secret to people he doesn't trust.
-Feels Uneasy when he is complimented too much
-Prefers to be called Nova
-Is a good strategist and leader.
-Whenever his eyes start to shine he seems to get a power boost for some reason. Why or from where he gets it is not known... yet.

The name is written on the Cover: Knowledge. According to him he Summoned it but keeps Secret how. While it can provide him with all he needs to know, he can't completely read it since it has an own will.
It only gives nova the information he directly searches for and what he has to know for a good reason.

Summoning magic.
Nova is a master summoner, capable of summoning small helpful, but also big and powerful creatures. Whenever his abilities are not enough he calls for help with this ability.
He sacrificed some of his summoning powers to help a friend. Because of this he lost most of his summons.

[Spoiler=Low Summoning]   
Spoiler: Ghost Hawk • show
His signature summon is his hawk. It has a range limit depending on the mana that nova uses.
In addition: Nova can see through the eyes of the hawk and hear what it hears. He can also talk through it by sending his voice to it.
It's only way of attacking is by dropping on a target and using it's claws. It can only cause some scratches and is only useful for slowing down a target.

Spoiler: Ghost Mole • show
A helpful mole that is able to dig large tunnels within a few moments. Thanks to this summon, Nova is able to explore the depths of earth with ease thanks to this summon.[/Spoiler]
[/Spoiler]

[Spoiler=Mid Summon]
[Spoiler=Ghost Wolf]A big wolf that Nova uses to ride, or to pull a carriage.[/Spoiler]
[Spoiler=Ghost Armadillo]The armadillo curls into a ball and slams targets with high speed by rolling and accelerating[/Spoiler]
[Spoiler=Ghost Anaconda]A large snake that is able to restrain almost any target.[/Spoiler]
[/Spoiler]
Spoiler: High summoning • show
His high level Summons are his most powerful ones. They need some time, a specific chant and a big amount of mana to be summoned. Unlike usual spiritual summons, these summons look and are real.

These high summons are:
A Phoenix, Golem, Fairy and a Mermaid.
Each of them has it's own powers, strengths and weaknesses.


Spoiler: Illusions • show
His Illusion magic is advanced. Instead of just changing light and shapes, he links himself to the soul of his target. This allows him to ignore most (but not all) protections from magic and even affect dreams.
They are sorted in categories. Fright, Distortion and Harmony

Fright:
Nova shows scary hallucinations. However. Since he can't guess what you are afraid of he will show you things that usually scare anypony. Fire around you, insects crawling all over you and other bizarre things.

Distortion:
This illusions are used to change the environment to distract and confuse a target. He changes colors and shapes. This can result in areal changes or jamming of coordination.

Harmony:
Harmony spells are used to calm down a target. If nova is using harmony illusions he can draw forth good memories and things they like.


Spoiler: Soul element • show
Spoiler: show

Nova is the keeper of one of the 7 soul elements: Anger, Courage, Love, Hope, Desire, Joy, and Sadness.
By calling his element a armor and helmet appear. He calls it by saying: My power is Desire.
Using his element unlocks "Offensive Light", and "Binding star" magic for him.



Spoiler: Lloyd Heart • show
Gender: Stallion

Species: Unicorn

Age: ??

Special talent: By combining his magic with his keyblade he can enter another creature's heart.

apperence:
Spoiler: show

His Past: : Before he became a nopony, Dolly Heart lived in a village similar to ponyville. Together with friends he lived his everyday life in peace, even though he was a blank flank his whole life.
One day the heartless attacked his world. The attack couldn't be stopped and everything fell into the darkness.
As a heartless stole his heart he should just have faded away, but he refused this and turned himself into a nopony without knowing it. Thanks to this he became stronger, got his cutie mark and was chosen by his keyblade.
Since that day he tried to forget his past and called himself Lloyd. (a anagram of his old name)

His Present: He lives in the Whitetail Woods, in a old mansion that he found and fixed together with others.
A while ago he found his heart and was reunited with it. It took some time to get used to it but he managed to fuse with it completely. Since then he took his surname back, and since he now can use his heart's power, he became a true keyblade master.

Cutie Mark:
Spoiler: show


Personality:
He is serious and has a strong will. 
Lloyd has a cold attitude and may seem like he doesn't care much for anything. Should the situation get dangerous though he will do whatever is in his power to solve the problem.

His battle skills are on a high level but he needs the keyblade to fight with his full potential.


Additional info:
Beside being a good fighter, he also knows a thing or two about Magic.
He is not used to be a leader and refuses to take this role. He rather takes orders then give some.
His cutie mark us usually covered by his hoody.
He prefers to fight with a limited strength instead of his full power.
Spoiler: Inhibitor Cloak • show
His Cloak limits the amount of energy he can use and weights somewhere around 40 kilo. Thanks to this he can fight longer then at full power.
Once he takes it off his energy makes him glow a bit and his mane becomes a bit darker. He can move at high speeds and use more attacks.
But with all things that are powerful it has a catch. Using his full power drains his stamina very quick. He has just enough time for some attacks before he becomes too exhausted.


Weapon:
Spoiler: show

His weapon is a keyblade. It possesses many useful abilities:
They keyblade can teleport into the users hands no matter where it is.
Has the power to lock and unlock any lock/barrier/seal.
Can cast magic when the user channels mana into it.

Spoiler: Magic • show

Even without his weapon he can use special magic. This includes fireballs, lightning bolds, healing magic and defensive wind spells.
He can also channel his magic through his hooves and unleash a barrage of small projectiles or create portals.

If he combines his magic with his keyblade he can create Seals, Barriers or power up his Keyblade for more striking power.


Spoiler: Summoning: Chocobo • show
A Big yellow bird that can carry 4 ponies. It may not be able to fly but is fast and can run over mountains at speeds around 70 M/pH

Hi there.
I can't believe nopony posted that amazing program here yet. What i am talking about? I'm talking about Desktop Ponies


Let me go into detail:
Desktop ponies is a program that creates ponies on your monitor. They fly/walk around, talk and do other small things.

There are some extras too. You can play hoofball with 2 teams (made of 3 chars for each team. And if you want it simpler you can play Ping-Pony. You can even add your own ponies if you have the sprites of it.

It's really simple to use so i guess i don't have to explain much. Just leave your question in a post and let's see if i can help you.

This program is free to use. Please download it at it's creators side:

Hi again.
I've been wondering. If you (or your OC) could have a theme song, what would it be?

Rules:
Take some time to decide, don't just post anything.
Please try to explain why the chosen song is your theme. You don't need to if you can't explain it though.
More then one song is allowed but don't post too much at once.


Since i'm the one who is asking i'll start
My Theme

I can't explain it completely but it fit's my live style. Exciting but still very relaxed.

Cutie Mark:


His past: He may not look like it but he is a noble in a distant country. However. He didn't like all the rules and limitations and left his home when he was young. He somehow found his way to Cloudsdale and found a job  at Sweet Apple Acres.
To prevent being found by his Family he keeps his past secret to everyone.

His Present: He works at Sweet Apple Acres since he can't control weather. He hunts treasure to make some extra money. If he found too much jewelry he shares it with Rarity and Spike. He doesn't like the feeling of being rich.

Favorite Food: Apples, everything spicy

Favorite Season: Summer

Hobby: Training, working at sweet apple achres,

Special talent: Can cover his body in flames. If he impacts somewhere when he is covered in flames he creates a explosion. The power of the pressure and fire depends on his speed.
The flames start at 765mp/h (Mach 1) and increase as he gets faster. When he reaches his top speed he becomes a Comet that is 5 times bigger then himself.

Additional Info:
Takes no damage from his own impacts and has a high pain tolerance.
Has almost unexhaustible stamina. That means he can fly for days without taking a break.
Needs 20 seconds to reach his top speed. (3600mp/h which is almost mach 5)
Can not reach the speed of the sonic-Rain-boom although he is very close.
Can't control weather.
Instead of focusing on stunts he prefers the basics. Acceleration, agility and speed.
Is proud of his uneque eyes.
Values freedom
When he gets exited his mane moves like it's on fire.

Movelist:
Burning-Saw: By spinning himself horizontal he uses his flames to cut everything in his way.
Flame-drill: He spins himself around his own axle to create a drill. It's strong enough to drill even through solid rock.
Sunburst: Flies big circles to create a small sun in the center. It burns out if he stops.
Fire-tornado: By flying smaller circles he can create tornadoes. When he gets fast enough he can Ignite them.
Blaze-bomb: When he stops after reaching mach 1 or higher he can throw his flames at a target.
Comet-Impact: He crashes on his target covered in flames. His flames may be dangerous but the Pressure from the impact is this move's true power.

Original Characters / Lusterless Nova
2012 May 18, 14:32:54
[spoiler]Name: Lusterless Nova 

Gender: male

Species: Unicorn

Age: 22

Special talent: High level Illusion and Summoning Magic. Can create living nightmares, peacefull visions, distractions and summon transparent ghost like creatures. For more information look out for the Magic section below.

Residence: Everywhere where treasure waits.

Appearance:


His Past: In his early days he was a quiet magic-talented unicorn who studied Illusion magic by himself with books and scrolls. Usually there where only small problems when a spell went wrong (wrong illusions or summoned creatures dissapeared after seconds).
But there was one time that changed a whole Village.
When he tried to cast a mid level Summoning (near a forge) his powers got out of control and a Dragon appeared in his Village. Since it was only half-size the damage was minimal but some Pony's where hurt badly.

His Present: Lusterless Nova still feels the guilt for losing control of his Summoning magic and prefers to fight with illusions.
Even though his Village accepted his apology he still wants to make up for it.
He became a Treasure Hunter who uses his Illusions to prevent damage to him and his surroundings. He is currently looking for the Treasure of Dragons.
His goal: Get enough money to pay off the bills for the repairs of the Destroyed Buildings. Even though it's dangerous he prefers to Travel alone.

Relitaves:
Mother: TBA

Sister:   TBA

Cutie Mark: A Sphere with a black base with a small white edge. There are also Small red and Blue lines that spin in 2 directions.
It Symbolizes his Talent with Illusion and Summoning Magic.


Likes: family, honor, peace, treasure, the silence of night

Dislikes: noise, distractions, meaningless confrontations, cowards

Personality: He may look like a cold hearted pony but in fact he likes to help others. He even protects caravans and other travellers when they have the same destination. At his best times he is just and protects the weak. At his worst stubborn and Authoritarian. He uses his mind to distract and tire his opponents out with Illusions which makes him a good strategist.

Favorite Food: Strawberries and Apples.

Favorite Season: Winter

Favorite Hobby: Reading books and scrolls about new spells. He also likes Fantasy books since he can use them for new Illusion spells.

Additional Info:
-He respects the Knights and anyone else with experience
-He likes the night and seems to be interested in luna (don't ask me in what kind).
-Is Scared of Dragons since his past
-Keeps his past secret to people he doesn't trust.
-Sometimes he creates firework like lights with his spells to earn money on festivals.
-Feels Uneasy when he is complimented too much
-Prefers to be called Nova
-Can understand what his Summoned creatures are saying even though it sounds like usual animal sounds.

-He has a Book that provides him with an infinite amount of information. It's written in strange symbols and even he can't completely read it. The name is written on the Cover: Internet. According to him he Summoned it but keeps Secret how.
  It is readable by other's as well but it gives them less information then nova.

To prevent myself from adding impossible summonings while roleplaying i thought a spellist would be the best solution. I would also like to explain how and under what circumstances he can use what spell.

Maximum mana: 1000

Summoning:
-Low summoning. Cost: 10 mana.
His low level summonings are not used for fighting. Since they don't need much time they can be cast immediately and even multiple times.
Small Birds Check the area.
Hawk Can transfer informations like nova himself would watch. Nova also can talk through him by transferring his voice.
Dog Unsuited for fighting but good guards during night and tracking down a target.
Mole Used for digging. If he summons more they can dig tunnels big enough for ponies.
Garuda A giant bird that can carry Nova for a while. Nova fell of a cliff once and thought that a pair of wings could have prevented it.
The Garuda is a quick summon but needs his full attention. Other summons disappear if Garuda is summoned. Only one possible!
Even though it is a low summon it needs 40 mana.

-Mid summoning. Cost 40 mana.
The Mid level summonings are used to fight enemies but  he only fights to a point they are unable to fight back. They need a couple of seconds to be cast and each extra summon needs the same amount of time. Maximum for each summoning is 3.
Tendril They are used to bind an enemy to the ground. When used 5 tendrils come out of the ground. One for each leg and one for the head Anything bigger then a bear will probably be able to free himself with raw power. They can't be summoned in dry areas.
Wolf Attacks with fangs. Is better if in a Pack.
Will o Whisp A hovering blue fireball. Aims for a target and explodes on contact.


-High Summoning. Cost 300 mana.
His high level summonings are only rarely used since they need too much Mana. They need almost a full minute and specific objects in order to be summoned. Unlike the other summons, high summoned creatures look real.

Phoenix A beautiful bird covered in flames. It's unusual flames can cure almost every illness and heal wounds. Is peaceful and can be controlled.
Requirements: A Hawk/Eagle feather, Clear water, a fire.
The fire is like a watch and should be protected.
Disappears after he healed the target.

Bahamut (Dragon) A big, scaled, flying, lizard-like creature that is able to breathe fire. Will fight almost everything.
!Warning! Not controllable. Always aims for the biggest enemy and attacks it with flames, claws and fangs.
Requirements: A hard living material as scales (a tortoise shell or something similar), a flame (this time something as big as a camp fire ), a big claw or fang.
Disappears when the enemy is defeated or Nova looses focus/passes out.

Golem A Strong Humanoid creature made of sand/stone/wood/clay and sometimes even fine materials like gems, gold and silver. His fists can break even the biggest rocks. Can be summoned in different sizes. Doesn't have a mind and can be controlled.
Requirements: A material to form it's body. A plate to write the summoners name on it. 1 gem as a improvised "Brain"
Unlike the other creatures this one does not disappear. It falls apart and leaves behind the materials it was made of.
Once summoned a plate (can be made of any material) with the name of the summoner appears on the head of the Golem. If that name is erased changed or damaged it falls apart.

Fenrir. A Giant Black Wolf 4 times bigger than a normal one. Also known as the father of the wolfs. Shred's everything apart with his claws and Fangs. Is loyal and controllable.
Requirements: Some fur of a wolf like creature, some blood of a predator, a wolf fang.
Fenrir is a proud Wolf and will only accept orders when they involve fighting. That means he will not help with transportation or other tasks. He summons 2 wolfs by himself.
Disappears if the target is defeated or the summoner gives the order to retreat.

Illusion
His Illusion spells are not sorted by levels since his imagination is what powers them.
His Illusions are sorted in categories. Fear, Harmony and Confusion
Keep in mind that he doesn't use his illusions on creatures who don't use their eyes or almost blind enemies.
The cost of mana varies and can't be clearly defined. The longer he holds it the more mana does it consume.

Fear:
Nova shows you hallucinations that scare you. However. Since he can't guess what you are afraid of he will show you things that usually scare anypony. Fire around you, insects crawling all over you and other bizarre things.

Confusion spells are used to distract enemies to escape or surprise-attack them. What they look like? It may sound strange but simply imagine something you don't expect to happen... Still need an example?
When you open your fridge FIRE COMES OUT! You look into a mirror, THE REFLECTION MOVES ON ITSELF!
I guess you understand what i mean.

Harmony spells are supposed to calm down a target. If nova is using harmony illusions he changes the surrounding area. Flowers come out of the ground or butterflies fly though the air. Sounds simple doesn't it?

He has one special illusion spell that is capable to "break someones mind". Since he knows that it is possible that he already used it at least once. To do this he combines Harmony, Confusion and Fear. The rest is unknown. (wait for him to use it in a rp)

Misc.
Spells go to this section

Light beam/sphere
He can fire of a beam of light or hold a small Glowing light on his horn. This is not the same light as the usual casting light.

Fireball
A basic elemental spell. He uses it to make fire but since he cant aim with it over long distances he doesn's use it in battle.

Stone Wall
Just as the name says he lets a stone wall appear out of the ground. By using 3 he can make tents.

Ice Thread
A Thread made of ice with a higher melt temperature than normal ice (somewhere near 10° instead of 0°). If someone steps on them they make a loud shatter-noise.

Teleportation:
A spell that teleports him to a specific location. However since he is not used to this kind of magic he keeps missing the spot he aimed for and keeps showing up in the weirdest locations.

Overburn:
A special "mode". His body gets covered by his mana.
-His high summonings appear insistently and don't need objects anymore.
-No limitations for low and mid summoned creatures

-Lasts only one minute
-Is reduced to low spells after his mana burns out
-Needs time to completely recover

As the Title say's i want to greet everyone and introduce and tell something about myself.

My Name is Lusterless Nova but you can call me Nova.
I am male 21 Years old and the Pony i respect the most is Twilight Sparkle.   X3
I became a brony almost 3 month ago. How? Some fan made Videos and a Personality Quiz caught my interest. And after the first 3 episodes... well you know how it continues.

My personality:
I have a sense for humor but most of the time i mean Serious Business.
At my best i am Protective and just. At my worst i am Stubborn and Authoritarian.

Why i am here?
Just like almost everypony else i came here because of the game Legends of Equestria and i want to follow it's progress and be a part of the community.

My avatar is my idea of how i would look like as a pony. My cutie mark is my way to express who i am. Darkness and Light, Good and Evil. Since i am balanced this is very well fitting (at least if you ask me).

If you want you can create one go here: http://www.dolldivine.com/mlp-fim-pony-creator.php Don't worry it's free. But you have to find a cutie mark by yourself.

If you have any other Questions feel free to ask
