EclipseHerd
As some of you may know, the SkyHerd thread once had a unicorn RP on it. Due to its popularity I'm bringing it back, with a few changes to make it more interesting, of course.
----
EclipseHerd is a fairly civilized herd of unicorns, made famous by the wise third lead stallion of the herd, Damon. It is located high in the skies in an alternate land, filled with flora and fauna. The land is eternally spring, therefore trees and flowers are often blossoming and the weather is mild. There are many pools in EclipseHerd, that the unicorns use to watch over the mortal herds. In Earth herd lore, it is said that the unicorns are the ones who control the weather, although they have never seen one their selves. This is true, along with the fact foals who die shortly after birth will be reincarnated as a unicorn.
Although Damon passed through the spirit realm long ago, his offspring still roam the land. One of his granddaughters, Fylliona to be exact, founded Urbem Aurum, a city not far from EclipseHerd that is constructed entirely out of gold. Since then, many have migrated there to seek new opportunities, although quite a few have still remained at EclipseHerd for generations.
----
Gifts
Each unicorn is born with a gift, a power ranging anywhere from being able to fly to controlling fauna. Along with this, leaders are able to transform into a dragon-like beast for up to an hour while fighting. All unicorns are born with the power to levitate, control magic, pass through the mortal realm, and to see through pools.
----
Plot
The land has been ravaged by a terrible being. Unicorns, both young and elderly, have been dropping dead and disappearing without a trace. No one has much of a clue about what has been happening.
It has been suggested that the madman, or rather group of cold blooded killers, are from an alternate universe that had been opened up previously to banish unicorns that were deemed to be dark.
Behavior such as stealing mares, fighting against or killing stallions, and many more actions that the Earth herds the unicorns watch over exhibit would be considered taboo behavior. Those who commit such things are deeply frowned upon, and even shunned. Unicorns are to be taught at an early age that they are a more civilized breed of beasts. Either way, if these do happen to be the dark unicorns that happened to make their way through their realm, their behavior would most likely match those of Earth horse, therefore earning them the rights to be looked down upon.
Rules
* All BYC rules apply
* Keep things at a PG-13 level at the most.
* Be realistic. Just because we're controlling unicorns, it doesn't mean that all senses of realism have been eliminated. For instance, you cannot be impossibly strong, you cannot instant kill, a young foal cannot take over, etc.
* Only one blow per post when fighting.
* NO MARY-SUES (characters that are impossibly perfect inside and out). I cannot stress how irritating it is to roleplay with a bunch of flawless characters. They have the personality of a piece of cardboard. Therefore, all I'm saying is to be creative.
* Have a nice time. Remember, this is just a game.

Name of Unicorn: Shakti
Gender: Stallion
Personality: Shakti is a rather dark and quiet unicorn, never really getting in on a conversation or discussion but rather eavesdropping and putting in his two-cents when he sees fit which is not often. Shakti despises crowds, he avoids them at all costs. However if you pull him out of his shell, which is even rarer then him being spotted at the market, then he becomes a rather wise and caring young stallion.
Appearance: Shakti is Arabian like in appearance, though his body is a bit thicker and his head is slightly less dished. Shakti's coloration mostly consists of a black so dark that he seems to reflect no light at all.

Gender: F
Personality: Is very sullen and despair ridden. Her gaze is constantly haunted by a terrifying backshadow, as if she's seeing painful memories flash before her own eyes every moment of the day. Sees nothing beyond the negative qualities of herself, cannot see the bad qualities in others, and cannot seem to see her inner self.
Appearance:
Age*: 14
Rank: Commoner
Gift: Her gift was taken from her; but it was to fly
Herd: Urbem Aurum
History (optional): She lived 8,000 feet closer to the sky. Above the clouds, watching the world go by. She was the only daughter born to the pegasus kingdom in a long line of stallions. She would fly down to the real world on the first day, when the earth comes to life again, of spring, when its beauty came to save the world from a scornful winter. She loved to see the 'regular' horses find the world again. No better than a ghost, hardly there, she'd watch the horses explore the land they'd lost in the terrible winter storms. But one day, she'd fallen in love with a regular stallion. Her father was furious, and destroyed him. He stripped her of her wings and flight ability, and sent her plummeting to the earth. She awoke, and was simply a unicorn. Starving and cold, she traveled far, looking for someone to help her. But every time they'd take the halter, she'd flee in terror. No one could tame her, so they tried to exterminate her. Let this be her destiny, to be forgotten from the world forever. Luckily, she survived, and scaled mountain ranges and managed to cross raging rivers despite that biting hunger inside her. She tried to eat grass and plants, but her father poisoned them as soon as she lowered her head. Starving and cold, every night she'd find an unprotected place to sleep, unable to find a protected one that her father hadn't sealed away from her, or sent predators there, to give way to another dizzying night of restless sleep, laying exposed to the world. That's when she found the Urbem Aurum. Now she has to find a mate to rediscover her wings, and rediscover herself.
Other: Likes Anaru, but wants to get to know him better

Creatures of the Land:
It is to be noted that unicorns aren't the only beings who roam the land. Due to the realm's fertile soil, and ample amounts of natural resources, many other beasts can live peacefully among them.
*Finches: An assortment of small birds can be found all around.
*Swans: These tend to stick to the shore of the river and by ponds.
*White wolves: Unlike earth wolves, white wolves are gentle beasts who do not prey upon creatures more itelligent and much larger than they. These tend to stick to the gorge where the temperatures are much cooler.
*Dodo birds: Believe it or not, these exist with the unicorns. They aren't very smart, and tend to be the prey of white wolves. They reside by the rocky cliffs of the gorge.
*Wyverns: Small, two-legged dragons who live in higher elevations. The only predator of the unicorns, although it isn't everyday they get to eat one.
*Cockatrice: A small two-legged dragon with a chicken's head. Unlike the Wyverns, they're friendly.
*Leopards: Like the white wolves, leopards of the area stick to preying upon smaller, dumber animals. They aren't incredibly uncommon in the lowlands.
*Foxes: Just your usual foxes. They live all over and tend to be peaceful around those larger than them.
*Stags: The deers of the land come in many colors and sizes, although the ones who span from the territories of the unicorns to the mountain range to the south are small spotted creatures, the bucks equipped with antlers.
*Rodents (rabbits, mice, moles, guinea pigs, squirrels & chipmunks): These little guys are all over, and prefer to make themselves comfortable in underground burrows or in trees. Unforunately, they are often attacked and eaten by the predators.
*Koi fish: Said to have spiritual qualities, and therefore left untouched. Several pools have amples amounts of koi, as well as the river going through the area.
*Faunnes: The only humanoids in the realm. They have the bodies of deer, and the torso up of an elf. Each sexes have antlers, the male's generally larger. Unicorns rarely ever encounter the Faunnes, as they reside upon the other side of the mountain range. Little is known about the Faunnes due to their shy attitudes.
*Black bears: Small bears, who tend to stick to a diet of fruit. Unlike Earth bears, they tend to be very outgoing if left unthreatened.
*Unicorns may also take the form of other species of equine, most commonly as donkeys. Qilin, the Chinese unicorn, and Pegasi (who are never seen) also exist.

Plot
The land has been ravaged by a terrible being. Unicorns, both young and elderly, have been dropping dead and disappearing without a trace. No one has much of a clue about what has been happening.
It has been suggested that the madman, or rather group of cold blooded killers, are from an alternate universe that had been opened up previously to banish unicorns that were deemed to be dark.

Personality: Eithne is a total extrovert, being always in a bright cheerful mood. She loves to be around other unicorns, and hates the feeling of being totally alone. Always willing to help.
Appearance: Eithne has a slender body that is very similar to a Morgan's. Her skin is a very, very light sea green, as are her wispy tail and mane. She has the typical tail of a unicorn (long and thin like a lions), and a small, almost non-existent beard on her chin.

Username: Broken
Name of Unicorn: Shakti
Gender: Stallion
Personality: Shakti is a rather dark and quiet unicorn, never really getting in on a conversation or discussion but rather eavesdropping and putting in his two-cents when he sees fit which is not often. Shakti despises crowds, he avoids them at all costs. However if you pull him out of his shell, which is even rarer then him being spotted at the market, then he becomes a rather wise and caring young stallion.
Appearance: Shakti is Arabian like in appearance, though his body is a bit thicker and his head is slightly less dished. Shakti's coloration mostly consists of a black so dark that he seems to reflect no light at all. Some of his most noticeable features are his small goatee at the edge of his chin and his tail, long and wiry in appearance with a long tuft of his murky black fur at the end.
Age: 4

Username: Singingchickenmomma
Name of Unicorn: Cassiopeia
Gender: F
Personality: Is very sullen and despair ridden. Her gaze is constantly haunted by a terrifying backshadow, as if she's seeing painful memories flash before her own eyes every moment of the day.

Appearance:
Age*: 14
Rank: Commoner
Gift: Her gift was taken from her; but it was to fly
Herd: Urbem Aurum
History (optional): She lived 8,000 feet closer to the sky. Above the clouds, watching the world go by. She was the only daughter born to the pegasus kingdom in a long line of stallions. She would fly down to the real world on the first day, when the earth comes to life again, of spring, when its beauty came to save the world from a scornful winter. She loved to see the 'regular' horses find the world again. No better than a ghost, hardly there, she'd watch the horses explore the land they'd lost in the terrible winter storms. But one day, she'd fallen in love with a regular stallion. Her father was furious, and destroyed him. He stripped her of her wings and flight ability, and sent her plummeting to the earth. She awoke, and was simply a unicorn. Starving and cold, she traveled far, looking for someone to help her. But every time they'd take the halter, she'd flee in terror. No one could tame her, so they tried to exterminate her. Let this be her destiny, to be forgotten from the world forever. Luckily, she survived, and scaled mountain ranges and managed to cross raging rivers despite that biting hunger inside her. She tried to eat grass and plants, but her father poisoned them as soon as she lowered her head. Starving and cold, every night she'd find an unprotected place to sleep, unable to find a protected one that her father hadn't sealed away from her, or sent predators there, to give way to another dizzying night of restless sleep, laying exposed to the world. That's when she found the Urbem Aurum. Now she has to find a mate to rediscover her wings, and rediscover herself.

Creatures of the Land:
It is to be noted that unicorns aren't the only beings who roam the land. Due to the realm's fertile soil, and ample amounts of natural resources, many other beasts can live peacefully among them.
*Finches: An assortment of small birds can be found all around.
*Swans: These tend to stick to the shore of the river and by ponds.
*White wolves: Unlike earth wolves, white wolves are gentle beasts who do not prey upon creatures more itelligent and much larger than they. These tend to stick to the gorge where the temperatures are much cooler.
*Dodo birds: Believe it or not, these exist with the unicorns. They aren't very smart, and tend to be the prey of white wolves. They reside by the rocky cliffs of the gorge.
*Wyverns: Small, two-legged dragons who live in higher elevations. The only predator of the unicorns, although it isn't everyday they get to eat one.
*Cockatrice: A small two-legged dragon with a chicken's head. Unlike the Wyverns, they're friendly.
*Leopards: Like the white wolves, leopards of the area stick to preying upon smaller, dumber animals. They aren't incredibly uncommon in the lowlands.
*Foxes: Just your usual foxes. They live all over and tend to be peaceful around those larger than them.
*Stags: The deers of the land come in many colors and sizes, although the ones who span from the territories of the unicorns to the mountain range to the south are small spotted creatures, the bucks equipped with antlers.
*Rodents (rabbits, mice, moles, guinea pigs, squirrels & chipmunks): These little guys are all over, and prefer to make themselves comfortable in underground burrows or in trees. Unforunately, they are often attacked and eaten by the predators.
*Koi fish: Said to have spiritual qualities, and therefore left untouched. Several pools have amples amounts of koi, as well as the river going through the area.
*Faunnes: The only humanoids in the realm. They have the bodies of deer, and the torso up of an elf. Each sexes have antlers, the male's generally larger. Unicorns rarely ever encounter the Faunnes, as they reside upon the other side of the mountain range. Little is known about the Faunnes due to their shy attitudes.
*Black bears: Small bears, who tend to stick to a diet of fruit. Unlike Earth bears, they tend to be very outgoing if left unthreatened.
*Unicorns may also take the form of other species of equine, most commonly as donkeys. Qilin, the Chinese unicorn, and Pegasi (who are never seen) also exist.
