[ Premise/Foreword ]
Alright! I announced the possibility of running this game a while back, so here it is! I'm still piecing things together, so please don't lynch the DM if I mess things up a bit!


[ Setting Information/Background ]
This campaign will take place in Equestria's past, just over one thousand years ago. You all have been called upon by an unknown individual, though the message was marked with the royal seal of the Crystal Empire. An odd factor, considering that King Sombra has taken over the Empire. There are a few other Equine settlements across the land, though none of them are particularly large. The exception to this rule being Canterlot, home to Princess Celestia. Things are tense, as Princess Luna was just recently banished to the Moon and the Frozen North (under Sombra's rule) and Canterlot are at war, and Celestia is even more strained than usual. You're not sure what the remains of the Crystal royalty could want from you, but it must be important...

Bumping for attention...  

[RafeRavel]

One last bump for attention. Based on the one other post, I'm guessing this was a retarded idea that I shouldn't have bothered with, but here's giving this one last try.  

[SorceressJacklyn]

Seems interesting...  

[Cute Things In Jars]

i'd be down for this....  

[RafeRavel]

Well, that's one (maybe two) takers. smile I'd still like to run this, if people want to play.  

[KytanaTheThief]

being the brony (i hate the term "pegasister") i am, i'm most definitely intrigued by this...i've got another friend who'd probably be down for it as well, just need to check with them sometime tomorrow.

Aaand nearly done with a char.

Here's my various rolls

And here's Swiftfire, Pegasus Rogue

I still need to get his mundane equipment and fine tune stuff (I'm still debating on his name as well), but numbers-wise he should be good to go.
