Title: Growing Up: OC (Sign-Up)
Post by: Bravo 658 on 2013 Mar 21, 00:20:12
Introduction:
Hi, everypony!  Wavelength here with a new type of RP for you all!  In this RP, you won't be bringing any existing OCs in; you're a brand new life, and a new young pony going to Kindergarten to meet your peers for the first time.  As you play, you will shape the new characters of those around you, allowing interaction with the community to form a new generation of realistic original characters!

Growing Up: OC start date:
This RP will begin on March 23rd.  If you want to join after that, go ahead and ask!  There are students who show up halfway through school, after all.

Choosing Your Character
Sign up by first simply stating that you would like to join.  After you sign up, I will use an electronic device to randomly select between unicorn, pegasus, or earth pony.  I will reply to your sign-up post, telling you what species you'll grow up as.  After that, you may choose your color scheme and name.  Be sure to have a believable name!

RP Control:
The role of the teacher will be announced here at a later time.

Additional Information:
If you have any questions, go ahead and ask!  I'll enter the answers in this section.

Pick out your names and colors carefully, and don't forget to remember how you acted as a child! X3

Ah, that brings up another point: we'll start out a little younger than the Cutie Mark Crusaders when we meet each other.  Remember, this is Kindergarten--we aren't all professionals in the speech category, and some of us may still be a tiny bit clumsy.
Title: Re: Growing Up: OC (Sign-Up)
Post by: Morning Glory on 2013 Mar 21, 12:21:18
Well yes, Kindergarten. So we're the approximate human age of 4-5. The CMC are more like say, 8-11, I would guess.

Title: Re: Growing Up: OC (Sign-Up)
Post by: Morning Glory on 2013 Mar 21, 12:24:43
This might be helpful. For us human people, here's an assessment of the development of an average four year old. Obviously everyone grows at different rates, so this is a generalization, but it might be a good guide for some of us.

Thank you for the reference, Morning Glory!  This should help!

...Oh, and keep it clean.  We're in Legends of Equestria, which doesn't allow cursing, and this is also my RP... which doesn't allow cursing, either. X3
Title: Re: Growing Up: OC (Sign-Up)

I would hope 4 year olds shouldn't know how to... But I have been surprised.
Title: Re: Growing Up: OC (Sign-Up)
Post by: Morning Glory on 2013 Mar 21, 12:37:06
I think that can be presumed for all RPs.

Would you allow made-up or "Equestrian" swears ie Horseapples!. You could include the teacher scolding or punishing a student for saying such things.

Unlikely. Children at this age are very prideful and possessive of their toys. Since playtime is the highlight of their life, their playtime tools are highly coveted.

Well, it is a part of growing up... it's unlikely that any of us will hear one of those words, though, so keep that in mind.

Keyword babies. Babies use their mouth to explore objects. (not unlike other animals- ever had a puppy?) By four years old, humans have better tools for investigating objects; their hands have enough motor control to be a much more effective tool. Now ponies, lacking fingers or opposable digits, will use their mouths to carry items, but at four, they probably know not to eat their toys and they won't want to, like I said before.

Luna plushies are too busy for my liking. You got the crazy hair, the big horn, the big wings, the shoes, the necklace, the crown. Too much! AJ is simple and huggable. But that's off topic.

On topic- I feel like any Equestrian teacher who washed out a foal's mouth with soap would be fired. It's an extremely cruel and painful punishment.

Title: Re: Growing Up: OC (Sign-Up)
Post by: Bravo 658 on 2013 Mar 21, 13:51:11
Painful?  From all I remember, it just tasted absolutely horrible...

...Wait, then again, do I remember it having a weird sting?  Dagnabbit, now I've got a sick urge to lick a bar of soap just to find out... lol



Bleyd, I understood the first part of that, but the end is a little confusing...
Title: Re: Growing Up: OC (Sign-Up)
Post by: Seriack on 2013 Mar 21, 13:56:58
I remember I washed my own mouth out with soap when I was younger... Liquid soap tastes nasty. And, yes, the teacher would probably be fired for that.

Off-topic once more... I probably wouldn't be able to afford a Luna Plushie anyway... Maybe Twi pre-Alicorn, or Fluttershy... Blast it all, now you've got me thinking about all the stuff I can't afford!!!  X3 (I go off topic too much... Sowwie.)

Well, Bleyd, this is supposed to be a place where realistic OCs are raised.  You're a unicorn, not a dragon... can you please just accept the species you're assigned?

Well, Laebenal, you can simply be a day late to school.  Maybe you're on the way home from vacation with your parents when the first day of school comes.

Post by: Bravo 658 on 2013 Mar 21, 14:59:09
I'm sorry, but they just aren't pony eyes.  You're trying to make your character special by your own standards again.
The purpose of this RP is to make new characters who are defined by those around them, not by your own choices.  Could you please accept a standard Unicorn colt?
Title: Re: Growing Up: OC (Sign-Up)

I just want you to have a realistic OC... I'm sorry, but this is meant to be a new experience for everypony.  Try stepping out of your dragon-eye comfort zone and being a pony! DD:



On another note, everypony, it's time to get this straightened out.  There's gotta be a teacher, but I'm not sure who it'll be...  Everypony vote.  Who do you want to be the teacher?

A- Wavelength, me...

B- Random teacher, played by me...

C- I look for somepony else to play the part, allowing me to be a student with you.

D- Or D, I suppose, where I do A or B and ALSO play a student.

Any ideas, like just having the teacher narrated and not really played?

Title: Re: Growing Up: OC (Sign-Up)
Post by: Bravo 658 on 2013 Mar 21, 15:21:31
The blind pony likes to drive cars, the pegasus is a seasoned killer with dragon eyes, and the monster is, well... a twist on the story Frankenstein it seems, where the monster is actually accepted by the people he meets.
I'm just asking if you can try a normal OC... pretty pleeeeease? X3

Post by: Morning Glory on 2013 Mar 21, 15:51:43
I think Bravo is asking that your pony characters be show accurate. Ponies in the show have pupils. I think what he also is trying to drive home is that this is a standard, canon, MLP RP. No extra powers, no wacky backstories, just happily little kid ponies living a normal pony life, going to kindergarten. If those aren't standards you want to play under, you probably wont enjoy this RP.

He's very cute, but in my opinion, the name isn't very...ponyish. Ponies don't really use "names" like we do. The mercury part is fine I guess. But pony names are made of nouns and occasionally adjectives and verbs, but not proper nouns typically.

I'm not sure where Devian came from, but I can see why his parents would say Mercury.  I suppose it works.

seriously is a name I understand that if name is hitler, pedobear, pikachu or another similar is bad. but thanos is only a name
Title: Re: Growing Up: OC (Sign-Up)
Post by: Bravo 658 on 2013 Mar 21, 16:55:35
The name Hitler is just a name.  The name Pikachu is a species.  The name Thanos is a name for an Iron Man character from Titan, derived from Thanatos, the Greek personification of death and mortality.  If Thanos really was just a name, then a pony wouldn't have it; like Morning Glory said, we ponies are named after physical traits.  Thanos really isn't a good name here.

i think that you think, that names influence the character's actions and this isnt true

Do you like his name?
[/quote]
He's very cute, but in my opinion, the name isn't very...ponyish. Ponies don't really use "names" like we do. The mercury part is fine I guess. But pony names are made of nouns and occasionally adjectives and verbs, but not proper nouns typically.

I'm not sure where Devian came from, but I can see why his parents would say Mercury.  I suppose it works.
[/quote][/spoiler]
So, I was thinking back about my OC name and I was thinking about changing his name to be more... fitting...
What do you think of Mercury Blaze, Mercury Burst, Gleam Mercury or Mercury Spark? If you got a suggestion tell me.

Hahaha, don't you think "liquid mercury" might be a little redundant? lol
Gleam or spark might suit it well.  Let me know what to put down.

Enstramentall enters as a Pegasus Pony!  Heh, better get ready soon or you'll be late to school... X3

I believe I'll have to teach you, everpony.  As much as I was hoping to make a new OC of my own, somepony's gotta be the teacher... I'll do my best for you all!

I think she looks fine. Kinda like RD... But red and yellow instead.
Title: Re: Growing Up: OC (Sign-Up)
Post by: Enstramentall on 2013 Mar 23, 00:52:15
That was a major problem when I had when I created the characer, I didn't want her looking too much like RD. X3


I hope you'll accept her, Bravo 539. If not, I'll just make another pony. :nod:

Class will begin in, uh... let's see...
Something like 12 hours from now.

Well, Enstramentall, I'm just saying... I don't want you trying to make her special in your own way.  That's the point of this RP, is it not?  To make new OCs that are defined by those around them, not by their owner?  If it's not too much trouble, I kind of would prefer a more realistic submission...

I am able to post today but only later than normally. (kinda forced to stay up) So, I might be a little late from the start of the rp. (unless you start it a little later...)
Title: Re: Growing Up: OC (Sign-Up)
Post by: Bravo 658 on 2013 Mar 23, 02:51:32
Everypony seems a little impatient for it to start.  What do you all think?  Want to come up with a new start date that everypony can be ready for?
Title: Re: Growing Up: OC (Sign-Up)
Post by: Laebenal on 2013 Mar 23, 04:29:56
I think we shouldn't chance it. (unless everypony wants to)
Title: Re: Growing Up: OC (Sign-Up)
Post by: Seriack on 2013 Mar 23, 04:32:28
Wait... A new start date? But isn't it tomorrow? That would be kind of redundant.  X3

Unless you were thinking about putting it back... Which wouldn't help....

CONFUSION.... Doesn't help it's 2 in the morning...

Eyes?  Mane and tail style?  It'd help if you made a pony >here< (http://generalzoi.deviantart.com/art/Pony-Creator-Full-Version-254295904).  Go ahead and copy-paste the code provided in the "advanced" tab and send that to me in your next reply to speed things up.  I'll take care of the pose and uploading.

Dark Hooves, if you want to join, you're an Earth Pony... and the entire purpose of this RP is to make an all-new OC, not use an existing one.  I'd suggest a new name. X3  Also, is there any chance you could use Pony Creator to show the colors, mane, and tail?

i've tried that using dial up and i don't see anything that i'm doing

lol sorry
