    Simply the new OOC thread for the True Grit alternate-universe FoE thread.

    ANNOUNCEMENT: For those already taking part in TG, I'm as of the moment abolishing current character sheets, minus stats, which I'm asking you to keep. The previous character sheet and systems had a lot of gaps in them and once the s*** hits the fan in the thread, I didn't think I could rely on it. So for the moment, it is pure roleplaying/storytelling. PLEASE be mature and PLEASE be realistic.

    ANNOUNCEMENT #2: For those already taking part in TG, please post here announcing that you are still on-board! And also, please fill out the character sheet below (once supplied). This sheet, for the moment, will only include character details and stats - no skills.

    CHARACTER SHEET: Click here!

    THE STORY SO FAR: Click here!

    NEWCOMERS: PTG, or Project True Grit, is an attempt (by Sketch and myself) to create an alternate canon for FoE. We're aiming to put the "struggle" in "struggle for survival". Some things we're adding are (and these are understatements):

    - Extensive alternate canon: we've created an ENTIRE FoE canon, complete with new characters, factions, locations, loot, and an optional underlying storyline...to save or destroy the Wastes.
    - Extensive world: I cannot truly express to you how massive the realm of TG is. It includes the entire world of MLP, including lands beyond Equestria. Zebrica, the Griffon Kingdoms, Canida, and numerous other regions! You will never run out of places to explore!
    - More realism; meaning that suddenly the dangers of the wasteland apply to you. Anything from a gunshot wound to starvation to radiation poisoning - the world is out to get you, and you must find a way to cope.
    - More grit: this is the Equestrian Wasteland (and beyond)! This is no walk in the park! Expect grueling trials and truly tough decisions.
    - More emotion: gripping, believable histories, heart-wrenching excerpts, and tragic back stories help weave an image of Equestria before, during, and following The Last Day and spin an atmosphere of melancholy...and hope.
    - More options: there is no one way to do anything - players will be rewarded for ingenuity...or punished for it.
    - More lethality: YES, this game can and will kill your character.

    Guess what? This is going to be a long story! So if you feel the need to have your character step out and continue his or her story off-stage, feel free to PM me or Sketch at any time. We'll take care of everything.

    Want to continue RPing but not with the "main" group? Don't! Branch off into your own story! We encourage this!

    Nevertheless, welcome to Project True Grit: New Old World!

    Here's Key's sheet again.

    Name: Key Ring aka "Skeleton" Key
    Race:Unicorn
    Age:20
    Gender:Male
    Background Archetype:All Purpose Infiltrator
    Background Specific: Key Ring was born in the Stable to two loving parents. His parents tried to dote on him as much as possible, showering him with toys and books, causing a unfortunate side effect of greed to manifest.

    As he grew up and discovered his talents he started to “acquire” things for himself using his abilities in hacking and picking locks to take things he wanted. His thefts started out simple and at a young age and escalated in severity as he grew older, to the point in which after cracking one particularly hard lock he received his cutie mark of a stylized key, aka a skeleton key. During his youth he joined one of the stable gangs, a choice that only fueled his greed and thieving pursuits and earned him the nickname "Skeleton" Key.

    Eventually he his lifestyle of thievery caught up to him when ponies started to wonder how a 20 year old was making a very comfortable life for himself despite having no job to speak of. Sensing an oncoming investigation of him, Key Ring volunteered himself to go outside the Stable.

    = Physical =

    Build: Scrawny and agile
    Height: Average
    Weight: 120
    Condition: Healthy

    = Appearance =

    Mane [Condition/Color]: Messy and long/Light light blue.
    Coat [Condition/Color]: Clean kept brushed/Creamy White
    Tail [Condition/Color]: Kept brushed/Light light blue
    Eyes [Color]: Light Green

    Good news~

    The character sheet is now up! Keep in mind that the canon is different, so some alterations may have to be made. Maybe.

    My backstory is rather brief, but it should meet the requirements. Let me know if I need to expand upon it or alter it to meet the new canon.

    Also, I hope you don't mind but I divided the biography section into the standard 'History' and 'Personality' sections.

    decided to use my alt account for this since making post as bone head without getting shot is a bit hard.
    (This is ginger ale)

    Decided to go with a new character since that seems to be the norm here.

    For the moment no new characters have been accepted.

    OUR BEEF WITH YOU:
    Glaive - Our main issue is with the "Guide of the Wastes" occupation. There is no mention of him ever leaving his hometown prior to his search for his family - was this intentional? Because he's completely unqualified as a Guide. (You could also use this as a comedy element, or similar.)

    (Also, between you and me and everyone, have you taken a step back to look at your color scheme?)

    Xerxes - Make sure you can differentiate from "cold, merciless, sadistic torturer" and "the guy who has a soft side and tries to help people from time to time."

    Nitro - that there is an incredibly dangerous combination - crazy and stupid. If you plan to keep that, make sure you play it well. Don't overdo the crazy. Or the stupid. As far as the Canida part of your history, we'll get back to you on the specifics.

    Hawke - Honestly I'm more worried about your RPing than the actual character. Make sense. Use grammar. And bones do not make good swords.

    I can tone down the crazy and make it so that Nitro is just dim and socially oblivious instead of full-out stupid, if that helps. As for roleplay, I'm confidednt in my ability to handle him. I'm not going to have him lob grenades directly at party members, I'm not trying to screw over everyone. I just wont be as careful with them as I might be with a more mentally stable character. If he starts to cause problems with the group, I'm more than willing to have him blow himself up.

    I want to point out that it would help us GREATLY if you explained the history and personality and background of a character simply. We'd prefer short, clear, and well-done to long and confusingly written.

    Please edit your character sheets accordingly.

    Don't worry about my RPing I'm just terrible at getting ideas for a character down on a piece of paper. As for the bone swords, I needed something that sounded like something a tribe of worriers would use when technology was taboo and bone seemed to make since (mainly due to me playing a lot of skyrim lately and bone swords are a thing there.) But if it's to far out there I guess I could use a couple of machetes or a knife spear.

    Character Sheet - Project True Grit

    -Basic Description-
    Name: Cassette Tape
    Age: 18
    Race: Earth Pony
    Gender: Female
    Occupation: Courier

    -Physical Description-
    Size: Average
    Build: Fit
    Coat: Medium-Light Orange
    Mane: Medium Brunette
    Tail: Medium Brunette
    Cutie Mark: A Cassette Tape and Three warm color stars
    Picture:
    Out-of-Character Thread [TG] Casset13

    -Personality-
    Cassette Tape is a really likeable pony. She always knows how to make the best out of a bad situation. She prefers to be called Cass. She loves traveling but not at night because you never know if raiders or deathclaws might jump out at you.

    Cass is also one of the best singers in the wastes. She has done performances at New Pegasus, New Appleoosa, Friendship city, and Tenpony Tower. She is also a skilled guitar player, who enjoys filling the air with melody.

    -History-
    I was born in the back of my parents caravan wagon on our way to Friendship City. When I was born my mother said I was the happiest looking baby she has ever seen. At the time my parents were young, about 25ish and my two older brothers Shadow and Niko were about 5.

    Throughout my childhood we traveled through the wastes, my mom taught me how to create natural remedies off the wild plants we harvested. And my father taught me how to play guitar. My two brothers always loved to roughhouse so I grew up a tough filly.

    Not too long after my 15th birthday I found out I had a beautiful singing voice I sang wherever we went. Ponies took notice to it, and it gave our caravan alot of business.

    At 17, my mother took ill with a strange disease even professional doctors couldn't analyze. She died on a sunday afternoon near New Appleloosa. Celestia bless her soul.

    At 18 I decided to leave the caravan and start my own life. I said my tearful goodbyes and left. Somehow soon after I got roped into the courier business. I've made good money off of being a courier, and i've been doing it ever since.

    According to someone's comment, they wish I had "cut the crap" about the Vault intro sequence, and start outside the Vault.

    I am perfectly capable of having the current posts deleted, to start in this way.

    I want your opinions.

    I think starting outside the stable would be more beneficial to the characters that don't have anything to do with the stable and we can start fresh rather than go with back story that's about a month out of date.

    Understand that it DOES NOT mean non-Vault characters start out immediately.
