Roll to Pony: What sorcery is this?
« on: April 28, 2012, 07:31:00 am »

Please note that this is not going to be updated often so expect delays.

Most sprites are from, or based on, sprites from Desktop Ponies which you should try atleast once. I have Octavia playing in the background right now (she is the least distracting pony).

Five ponies trotted along the road to Ponyville. None of them had any idea why they were going to Ponyville. It was as if some unknown force* had influenced them to embark on their journey.
Suddenly the red stallion in front turned and spoke.
: Who the hay are you ponies?

Having a NPC that is you (the GM) in a RPG means giving incentive for the players to try and kill it. lol.

>That is horrible and disgusting. It will no doubt set you apart and create fear in your team mates. So of course.

With grimdark power comes grimdark responsibility.
They're welcome to try, he's more a 'tutorial guy' than anything.

Heh. ^^^ I don't really like her horn, though, and FD is also a unicorn, so I think I'll switch to Earth Pony. I always did like Applejack best anyway... >.>

I'll go make an image. Incidentally, a free cupcake to whoever guesses who inspired this character to a certain degree.

Name: Sunset Bloom
Type: Unicorn
Cutie Mark: A Orange flower
Appearance: Orange mane, Red coat.
Other: Sunset was a pony born in the middle of Summer during a sunset, and ever since birth was taught magic about fire and light. She has always been helpful to fellow ponies, and will never hesitate to help somepony in need with her magic. She is rather reserved, and is journeying to Ponyville to meet the legendary Twilight Sparkle and to try and learn from her, although her mind had been boggled and she had no idea of any of this, including most of the magic she had spent years refining. She still remembered how to light a basic fire and manipulate light, though.
Likes: The sun, Summer, Magic, Light, Fellow Ponies, Helping, and Learning
Dislikes: Night, Darkness, Water, Wild Animals.
Reserving this, I'm finishing my sheet up as we speak (type?)

Good thing I switched to Earth or we'd have three unicorns and a pegasus. ^^^; Also, NP, if it makes it easier on you you can use Starshine's sprite I put up in my bio; I figured out how to add transparencies with GiMP so it should be all good now. ^^^
