LET THE GAME BEGIN

Okay quick reminds. If your character has been accepted, please post about your character coming to/arriving at the refuge.

I will be gone the next 4 days so will not be able to take any large GM-ish actions. I shall leave big things to Impy if they have the time to do so.
Near the lawless center of Equestria was a town. Though the largest and most well fortified of any in the land, it was still looked at little more than a refuge camp. A temporary respite to the weary. A minor balm to the forsaken. Walls that held the an imitation of safety and soldiers that held the illusion of strength. This was Redheart's Refuge. Atop a high hill in the middle of the town, there was a manor that seemed almost out of place in a place so far from the larger cities. Redheart Manor, the heart of Redheart's Refuge, to pardon the redundancy. The whole fortress town centered around its massive splendor. Though from without it seemed magnificent, it was far more empty inside than it once was. The owner of this mansion had given as much as she possible could for the people that gathered behind her walls. Perhaps it was why she had a habit of spending so much time outside them now.

On a lookout at the very roof on the manor sat Lady Redheart herself. The white mares was old and frail, a shadow of the woman she was when this war began and she had been no spring filly then either. Oh but her eyes. Her bright blue eyes all but shined with intelligence, wit, and more raw willpower than a charging juggernaut. From here she could see all of her city, all of her children, and all of those helpless souls that looked to her for hope. But today she was not looking down at her city. She was looking up. Towards the horizon.

She looked to the East and saw the mountain range of Twilight's territories. Unnatural light colored the sky in that direction some nights. Signs of magic's being harnessed beyond any ponies imagination or ability to truly control. To the south she could make the vague shape of the white city of Mannehatten. The walls so high now that they contained enough stone to build and rebuild her entire refuge ten times over. and enough wealth to buy her city twenty times over. To the Southwest she saw the distant billows of smoke from the ever burning great forges in the heart of Earthborn lands. It had become a constant site since the houses formation. There ponies were constructing devices for war on a level never dreamed of. To the west....was the Everfree always that close? When she had been a child it had always seemed so far away. Now every day the unnaturally large trees loomed just a tiny bit closer than the one before. To the north, the great sky cities. They used to be one of her favorite sites. The large white cloud structures, great cities in the sky. Each one now a massive dark thunderstorm black. Every city ready for war. And when she closed her eyes and listened closely, she could swear that she could catch the stray laughter of some poor dead thing on the wind, a victim of the Cult.

Equestria was dying. And not a clean death. It was ripping itself apart from every cell and in every way imaginable. And no matter how hard she tried, her refuge wouldn't survive the inevitable outcome of these clashing giants. She knew they were all running out of time. That was why what they had planed was all the more crucial to complete.

A pegasus landed on the platform next to the elderly mare. Dressed in the armor and colors of The Children. The name of the forces that were pledge to her and her towns defense. "How are my Children fairing today Captain?" the old mare asked.

"They are...on edge today. Hardly say I can blame them. I know more of the details of what is happening than them, and my feathers feel like they're more on edge than ever. So few of our soldiers know the whole story...I understand why you keep them in the dark, but I wonder if it is wise."

Red heart rose her head and cast a dignified smile to the pegasus. "The Children's job is to protect the refuge and its people. They don my colors, take my oaths, and they will do as I say. They have enough on their shoulders without worrying about the fate of the whole kingdom."

The captain smirked "Fair enough...I can still hardly believe any of this will work."

"Then why not fly off? Pick a side you believe will win?" Redheart asked, only half joking if she was honest. With so much chaos, and her trying so hard to be independent of any of the houses she was almost certain they were constant attempts to slip spies into her ranks. She liked gauging her higher ups loyalty from time to time. "You are a strapping young Pegasus. I'm sure you'd find a fine place in any army. Seems better than dying for one single city."

The captain nearly laughed full out loud "Because I don't think any side will win anymore, not in a way worth winning, and much less make a place worth living in. I rather die trying to make the world a better place than live in a world made by monsters."

Redheart nodded her head and turned to head inside her home. "And that is why I made you Captain. We'll all need that kind of resolve if we want the slightest chance of this working. Tell the Children to stay vigilant. Most of the chosen, if not all, should be arriving very soon. If anypony shows up matching the right description, then they are to escort them to the manor."

"Yes Ma'am." The captain said, giving a quick salute before taking off into the air.

The war for the rule of Equstria had been raging for years now, and it was a battle that nopony would win. It had brought only pain ruin to their once strong nation. So she was about to begin something entirely different and far more important. A brand new war. The war for Equstria's soul.
IC WILL BE GOING UP TODAY

Hope y'all are ready :D
I would also be down for some H x H awesomeness. If your still looking, perhaps we can do some brainstorming?
After much deliberation Wormwood, I have to ask for my cult OC Belly Laugh be put in the art Que

Here are is some general information on her

Name: Belladonna 'Laughter' Drama; Belly Laugh to her friends
Appearance: Taller and slimmer than your average earth pony, while she doesn't have Fluer De Lis's body type, she clearly has some nobility in her family. Her body is Lavender and her mane and tail ( primarily minty green with a lavender highlight. ) Wavy to the point of being curly, and are on the short side to stay out of the way of her acrobatic fighting style. Eyes are bright blue.
Race: Earth Pony

A member of the cult of Laughter and a former Jester of Baltimar. Normally wearing a hooded cape that is dark gray on the outside and pink on the inside. ( Totally optional )

A primacy descriptor of her would be 'lovely'. With her poise, presence, beauty, general flirtatiousness with any mare with a pulse, and vocal talents it is common that she is mistaken for a Sapphire Siren when out and about as a civilian.

Possible poses: This has always been my weak point when requesting Bella be drawn xD Nothing truly comes to mind so do whatever comes natural for a flirty, playful, deadly assassin type.

If you want her to have some kind of prop I'd go with either her Jester mask or a simple throwing knife ( as knives are her weapon of choice )
Oh wow, okay you may get two art requests form this here GM. Your drawing of Fire Bloom is amazing and I would rather enjoy seeing your take on my go to ED Girl or my Go to ED Guy.

Have a thing the tomorrow and a busy weekend, and then the second half of Next week I'll be out of town so I don't know how my ability to post will be effected by that ( probable make me unable to post most likely )

But with any luck we'll have the IC up soon and we can have ya'll entertain yourselves by allowing your characters to get acquainted.
Hertha staggers from the force and burning pain of the attack, but holds her ground and her arms wrap tightly about the cyborge, holding her close to her body
H:That hurt ya little mouse. But if ya had range attacks, you should have kept them at a distance. Don't get a giant into a grappling fight.
Hertha then german-suplexs Dani.

KM: Oh god damn it Hertha. I starting to think you and I will be apologizing a lot to one Lutheran.
KM: You really probable shouldn't get into a drag out fight with one of your crewmates like...before you're even introduced in the actual story.
H: BUT SHE'S ASKIN' FOR IT!!! AND IT PROBABLE GONNA BE A WHILE BEFO I GET TO DO ANY THING IC!
KM: Well...like I'm shooter than she is and not at all super human and such so I seriously doubt I could stop you but what ever you do be careful.
H: Lovely! -turns to face Dani again cracking her knuckles and neck- Ya kno, Its not every day someone is dumb enough to challenge an elbafin to hand to hand. I almost fell some'tin like respect for ya now...almost mind ya.
H: AH! Well, if disintegration would be the effect - leans in and glares daggers- then perhaps twood be betta fer ya if I didn't try.

KM: While I think you are overrating here Hertha, I would recommend to you dani that you should not mess with someone that's like...twice your size?

CW: OH! That's the "Our shows are For-mid-able! Between our quests, we sequin vests" part!Dani: I take it you like that movie?CW: Second oldest I remember. The first was Milo and Otis. SO CUTE!!!!Dani: Whatever. Hey, who's Gigantits over there?


-Hertha stops suddenly in her tracks, dismounts her comically large horse, slaps it's rear so it quickly runs off in the distance and starts staking towards Dani. KM sighes heavily and stops his own hourse, and similarly dismounts it and sends it on its way-

H: OI! Wha did ya Call meh? I 'aut ta toss ya clear into next week ya wee little mouse!
KM: Hertha, please, I'm sure they meant nothing by it.
