My Little Pony - Equestrian Explorer's League

Equestrian Explorer's League

Story
Ten years after the coronation of Princess Twilight Sparkle, the princess has been noticing more activity happening in the world of Equestria but, to her surprise, it wasn't some world ending threat. It was different species that littered the land much like her own race. Twilight Sparkle then set out, offering a hoof of friendship out the 'new' races of Equestria, hoping that they would be able to live in peace with ponies. So far, the only races that accepted her offer of peace were the proud and gentle deer-folk of Elkwood and the bipedal and strange saurian of Marshstop. The princess was overjoyed to hear that these people would gladly live side-by-side with the ponies.

After months of searching the new areas of Equestria, Princess Twilight Sparkle has realized that only one pony couldn't scour the world, exploring it's depths and learning about it's other inhabitants, this is when she established an organization called the Exquestrian Explorer's League. A home to all who wish to explore, travel and learn more about the vast world that they live in. As soon as the League was created and opened to the public, it exploded from the large amount of applicants that were as curious as the princess herself. By land, sea, or air – The League will find every place, artifact and race then offer the same friendship that Princess Twilight Sparkle offered to them. Set a course for adventure!

Race Info

Pony

The dominate and most common race of Equestria. There are three types to this race; Earth, Unicorn and Pegasus. In most of the newer species' eyes(besides the donkeys, griffons, zebras and deer), they're the most advanced given their trains, hospitals, and gorgeous cities. Something that makes the ponies and zebras special is that they are branded with cutie marks that dictate their special talent and their place in life.

Griffon

Arrogant and very prideful, the griffons rule the skies over the seas to the east with their high speeds and almost predatory behavior. It's rare that they come down from their mountain cities high in the sky, to mingle with non-griffons and pretend to show respect to them. Though most of their species consist of arrogance, there are few that are actually kind.

Donkey

The donkeys of Equestria are mostly unknown. Save for the few that actually made themselves apparent. Most believe that they're all cranky and pessimistic, rivaling or surpassing griffons in negativity. Though, like said griffons, there are a couple that are actually nice and somewhat positive.

Zebra

Unlike most of the races, zebras can populate almost any type of terrain thanks to their sturdy and strong physique. They are famed for their talents in brewing either medicine or tasty drinks that any would enjoy. And like ponies, they too develop cutie marks.

Buffalo

Proud, large and strong. Three words that best describe the buffalo of Equestria. Making their homes near Macintosh Hills and San Palomino Desert, which is strange to most as the terrain there is very hazardous. They are unique in the sense that they might be the only race of Equestria to have a strong religion as they worship the 'spirits' of the land that grant them prosperity and clarity. An interesting rumor that surrounds this race is that they live near these areas because they can hear the voices of their revered spirits.

Deer

They live in thick forests overseas to the east, often not having the luxury of houses like most. They are kind, and welcoming to most, but due to living below the sky the griffons deemed their kingdom, they are the most obvious targets for their bigotry. This has brought up bad blood between the two races. Thankfully nothing too serious has happened between the two groups, but some do worry that battle could break out sooner or later, and prepare for the worst.

Saurian

Bipedal reptiles that resemble most of Equestria's lizards. Their appearance varies from looking like dragons, to a simple alligator. No saurian look exactly the same, though those who take on more dragon-like appearances live with the real thing over the seas to the south-east, and ones who take on the alligator appearance are more prone to the much closer Hayseed Swamps.. Another thing that some ponies and zebras find interesting is that they are capable of using a brand of magic they call 'Swamp Magic', though this is limited to a handful of this race and is rare even among themselves.

Interested. Though you already knew that, pal. c:

[Venom]

I follow the Raddum. But my interest is my own!

[Father]

Wunderbar! :>

[Crimson Flame]

I may be interested.

[Venom]

Crimson.....Aj is best.
Also if you guys want a oc done, I am a rather cheap commission artist. Pm me if you would like to see some characters I have done.
Also can I ask you FATHER, if you have a idea of how many post a day/week we should do for this rp? Not to come off pushy but I am getting a tad bored with my rps that post 2-3 a week, if I am lucky. I can rp in one that is in such a way, but its not exactly my favorite.

[Father]

Posting will follow an order that will be established later in the OOC phase and as for number of posts, I'd be happy with whatever. Just don't make them obscenely short and what not and have the courtesy to wait for others.

[Strangelander]

This looks like it could be pretty interesting.

As a totally unrelated side note, Raddum you're giving me nightmares.

[Zaresto]

Might be interested

[Rare]

I'm in for some fun :)

Strangelander said As a totally unrelated side note, Raddum you're giving me nightmares.

Just doing my job, mate.
