My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic Roleplay

Considering that half the active people on these forums are in some way affiliated with My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic, I thought that starting this Roleplay would be fun.

If you're asking yourself "What is this My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic" then you probably haven't been on the internet lately! But seriously, I'll explain stuff.

Basically it's a TV show about a world named Equestria where ponies are the dominant species and they live in towns that are ruled by a magical princess. The show follows 6 mane (pun intended) ponies: Rainbow Dash, Applejack, Pinkie Pie, Fluttershy, Rarity, and Twilight Sparkle (If you don't know who these ponies are: I suggest to Google them). Twilight Sparkle is a student under Princess Celestia (the ruler of Equestria) and is supposed to learn about the magic of friendship. That's My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic in a nutshell.

Now that you know the main storyline, you should know that there are background characters who have their own adventures (but are never aired). That's what this forum is going to be all about.

Basically create your own pony using this template and we can begin adventures soon I guess.

I'll explain that a Cutie Mark is a visual representation that appears on a pony's flank (aka butt) that represents that pony's special talent or what makes them unique.

When I say race/species, I mean Earth Pony (no wings, no horn), Unicorn (horn), Pegasus (wings), Zebra (self explanatory), Griffon (giant bird), Changeling (bug that has the ability to change its form to look like another pony), Dragon (Yes, there are dragons in here...not so girly now is it?)or Diamond Dog (weird dog things that have a gem fetish)

----------Background:Originally being a demon in the Nether, Demon snuck out one day to witness the elegent ponies of Equestria. However, when Demon returned back to the Nether, he learned of his species about to engage in war with the ponies. Demon, desperate to put a stop to it, tried to reason with his Demonic Leader, telling him that the ponies of Equestria are a peaceful race. Demon was immediately banished from the Nether. After remaining in Equestria for a period of time, Demon noticed he was actually beginning to transform into a pony, more specifically a pegasus. Now, he's just your average pony living in Cloudsdale.

Have fun, kiddies!

EDIT: I got so wrapped up into talking about MLP to the people who DON'T know about it, I forgot to mention when it takes place to the people who DO know about it.

This takes place after the events of Equestria Girls and Mystery Magical Cure (where Twilight IS an alicorn and a princess).

(I like your description of the Diamond Dogs. When is this placed? Current events? After Magical Mystery Cure and Equestria Girls?)

Name: Xipil
Cutie mark: a ball of fire
Specialty: FIRE! Xipil knows everything there is to know about fire!
Type of pony: Unicorn
Likes: Fire, Her friends: Almost everyone
Dislikes: Things that can't burn, mean things, the fire brigade (not the ponies on the fire brigade really, just the fire brigade in general because they always put out her fires)
Coat: orange and usually singed and/or burnt
Mane and tail: Yellow, gray-ish black, and dark-ish orange. Same as her coat, it is usually singed and/or burnt.
Eye color: Brown-ish
Other: Xipil is slightly insane... But has plenty of friends because she is kind. Has to wear bells so that people can know when she is coming, and when to be careful. Xipil is usually fine with not setting things on fire. But if she, for example: sees a giant pile of dry, burnable leaves... She will burn it. If she sees an unlit fireplace... She will burn it! Her job is to burn all the trash that can't be recycled or composted. Things like cardboard. So that helps her keep control.

(Yeah, I made sure to fix that in the first post. It IS taking place after Equestria Girls so Twilight IS an alicorn. Also, I switched up the template a little bit because there was some stuff on there that was specific to Ponycraft only)

(Also, welcome Purr! She's a friend from Skype who was on Ponycraft with me!)

(Thanks for clearing that up! But... What's Pony Craft?)

(Ponycraft was a Minecraft server that a lot of bronies/pegasisters went on to do Equestria RPs as ponies. In February of 2013, the staff decided to end Ponycraft. A new staff created Crafting is Magic in April for the Ponycraft community to continue doing pony RPs. However, in June of 2013, the owner of the server announced that the staff couldn't agree on anything so they shut down the server.)

(How come I never heard of this? Totally would've played it! Oh well... I'll have Legends of Equestria soon enough... I hope. So... When are we gonna start? Will I be the only person with a ton of characters? Are we allowed to control other ponies that aren't our characters to a certain extent so that we can actually do stuff?)

(I know that merponies aren't canon yet, but... HOT DAMN, I HOPE THEY HAVE MERPONIES AT SOME POINT! Or at least references to them... And I hope they aren't really lame. The crystal ponies were cool, but I was kind of disappointed. Guess that's my fault for expecting something super mega awesome...)

(Why, Demon?? WWHHHHHYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!?????? >:O)

(*sigh* By the sounds of it you're a hater. You know what? I don't even care what you say and neither do 12.4 million people in the United States. The show isn't for little girls anymore, my friend. Lauren Faust [creator of FiM] admitted that the show is now meant for teenage guys and girls to enjoy. I used to be just like you. Whenever someone mentioned the show I would gag and react just like you did. However, if you have an open mind and watch the first episode, you begin to realize that this is actually a good show. Just watch the first episode and you'll know what I mean. I'll leave the link right here for you.
