Title: The Journey of a Reaper (Open RP)
Post by: The Shadow Storm on 2015 Sep 07, 00:26:34
This RP is the story of my Primary OC, Shadow Storm, the Grim Reaper of Equestria, and how he came to terms with his destiny, and rejected it. It's also about the ponies he meets along the way. This story will take twists and turns, causing shenanigans like meeting the Princesses and dueling King Sombra, it will mainly be steered by YOU and I. Now, the Rules-

1- Follow the Forum Rules (obviously)
2- ANY type of OC is allowed, except the OP and God-tier ones.
3- Provide a short explaination of your OC
4- HACE FUN!

Storm looked at his map.

Hmm... So, this is Ponyville, huh? Guess it's only the first step, might as well go meet some townfolk, I've got nothing better to do anyhow...

He stepped into Ponyville, and the Journey officialy began...

((This RP is on thin ice, but I'll see what we can do :P))

A light purple stallion wearing a green military get up with an oversized helmet marches through the town. By the looks of him, he'd be a sure fire bet to find the towns military nut.

// I figured it would be, but I'm going to keep out of all the stuff that would shut this down, and I hope anyone else who joins will do the same.//


Huh, this place is... calm, relaxing even. I might stay for a bit, but I must remember, I NEED to go North.

"You need to go north!?" The stallion says, his helmeted head suddenly right in Shadow's face.

Shadow takes a step back.

Oh.. Umm... Yes, I need to go North. Who... Who are you, why are you so ecstatic about it?

"Why I'm Lieutenant Turnip, and the reason why I'm so ecstatic is," while the pony's tone seemed more formal too this point, it seems that there was a definite message he was trying to get across afterwards, since he started yelling, "BECAUSE THE NORTH IS A HORRIFYING ABYSS WHERE ONLY THE MOST TERRIFYING OF ALL BEINGS IN EQUESTRIA LIVE!" Whether or not his statement was true, the stallion seemed quite convinced that it was.

Hmm... the most terrifying huh? I can assure you, I've probably seen worse. Have you been to the Forbidden Isles?

"Do I look like the kind of low-life, law breaking pony who would go to someplace forbidden to go to?"

Oh c'mon, don't you have a sense of adventure?

[Imma just jump in if that's okay!]
The blue-coated mare took a deep breath, willing herself not to look down. She was miles up in the air, clouds moving lazily around her. She opened one eye, the town and ponies below like specks of dust. She screamed, her wings giving way, causing her to start falling. The wind whistled around her as she desperately tried to flap. She managed to get upright, and slow her fall for a time, before gliding straight downwards. Still screaming, she squeezed her eyes shut before she hit the ground face first. Her view was blurred, but she could make out two stallions standing above her. She shook the dirt off her face, squinting up.

"A sense of adventure!? Why I live, breath, and eat adventure, and that's just for breakfast! But that doesn't mean that I'd trot about all willy nilly in a place literally called the Forbidden Isles!"

I guess you do have a point... Storm looks over at the mare,and smirks. Umm... Are you alright? He holds out his hoof, offering some help.

The mare spat out some dirt, getting up with the help of the pony. "I'm just dandy." She said sarcastically. Her wings were huge, so large that they nearly dragged along the ground even when folded. "I'm CloudShine." she said, her ear flicking. She was an Alicorn- a little taller than most ponies, with a long horn.

Well, hello then. My name is Shadow Storm. I'm suprised to see an Alicorn out here.
Title: Re: The Journey of a Reaper (Open RP)
Post by: Spiralfeather on 2015 Sep 10, 05:47:01
"Hm? Oh, well I'm honoured to be the first Alicorn you meet around here." She smiled, bowing. "I assume you don't live around here." She said, glancing at the military-looking pony.

No, I don't...

"I'll have you know that my family has been growing turnips in these parts for generations!" Lt. Turnip rebuttals to Cloudshine.

Then whats with the military outfit?
Title: Re: The Journey of a Reaper (Open RP)
Post by: annosrules on 2015 Sep 10, 16:25:57
"Outfit!? This, my good sir, is no party gown to be worn to Nightmare Night, but the official uniform of the Turnip Militia!"
Title: Re: The Journey of a Reaper (Open RP)
Post by: The Shadow Storm on 2015 Sep 10, 19:19:51
Uhh... Turnip Militia?
Title: Re: The Journey of a Reaper (Open RP)
Post by: annosrules on 2015 Sep 10, 19:25:47
"No better Militia exists this side of the Everfree Forest!"

Alright. Any idea what the best way to Canterlot is? I would fly, but there is a certain "aspect" about my wings...

"Well the fastest method of transport would have to be the train, followed by a pony-drawn carriage up the main road."

Alright. Thanks. If you're bored, you can tag along.

((This does seem like an interesting RP, and I've thought of an idea that could explain one of my OC's being in this, but, it would require death references which I'm about 99.9% sure is too dark for this forum now or something.

*sighs*

Lt. Turnip's eyes widen at Shadow's proposition, though such a sight is blocked by his helmet. "The Turnip Militia would be proud to serve you on your journey," Lt. Turnip replies, finishing his statement with a salute.

/LostSanity, go ahead, just dont directly allude to it./         Alrighty then, lets get going.
Title: Re: The Journey of a Reaper (Open RP)
Post by: LostSanity on 2015 Sep 13, 18:17:27
((Here. I'll just explain my idea instead. It involves my OC that is an Ace Attorney-like/Detective pony investigating a crime where a pony has died and the spirit of the victim can't move on and wants revenge or something like that. Enter your "Grim Reaper" pony character to help the spirit of the victim to help him/her move and assist my character in solving the crime.

Yup. Can't do it I guess.

I'll just... go now...

:s))
