@kiltman, oooh, I remember her, she was fun =D Frisky too.

Hmm, here's a couple of good questions i can ask that hopefully everyone will have an opinion on, they'll make my decisions for building up the foundation of the RP much easier ^.^

What does everyone think of the idea of Earth ponies and Pegasi having their own variety of 'magic', of course they already have that natural magic, But I'm talking consciously useable magic focused through hooves for earthponies or wings for pegasi. It'd most likely be a 'learnable' thing, teachable method of consciously channeling the magic they naturally have to temporarily 'do' things. Actually, it could also be tied in with the 'willpower = magic effect' in the choices in the first post.

The variety would be considerable, but most likely related to an individuals already present abilities and definitely not so drastic as to make them game breaking. just a few examples would be like the infamous 'magnetic hoof' that lets earth ponies inexplicable pick up objects with no aposable digits, or perhaps able to cause a reaction in earth or plant based mediums [depending on their specialty of course], or perhaps change their phsyical characteristics [I could totally see Belladonna's allowing her those wild acrobatics she's capable of =D]

For a pegasus it might be something like temperature control [heating up the air, potential combustion, chilling, potential freezing], Altering properties of their wings [wing blades are a common pegasus weapon, but what if they could use tightly focused air in-front of their wing to split what they swing it at? within limits of course XD], aaand so on.

And the other important question, involvement of an alicorn... I'm well familiar with how it can be 'troublesome' to involve alicorns in a pony RP, there's always the potential for someone raise shit about how abuse-able it can be, so i want to ask about this first. Do think:

would it be fine to have as a main character? [I have an idea for one, but I hardly intend to push the subject if there are strong objections, my over active imagination can easily modify the idea for a unicorn instead XD]

Have an NPC Alicorn in an important long term plot position [not counting the princesses xD]? [kinda like Anderson's role in the beginning of Mass effect, though may or may not be longer lasting. This question is regardless of the answer to the first question, I could just as easily make an alicorn in a 'non-leading' position, and likewise make previously mentioned unicorn in a leading or non-leading position.]
