STS History And More
Welcome to Still They Stand. Have A Good Time!
"It wasn’t long ago. No, not log ago at all," Blitz said calmly," It all started about three years ago. It was a beautiful spring afternoon. None of us had a clue what was going on."
"What happened, Blitz? What happened!?" Serobi asked excitedly.
"Well, if you would settle down here, I would be able to tell you. Now, where was I? Oh! Yes, it was a mild spring afternoon and the sun was shinning bright. We had all gone into the Shaded Woods to retreat from the suns hot rays, when one of the heard members spotted something on the horizon. We all dashed our heads up to see what was going on when it happened," Blitz told.
"It happened!? What happened!?" Serobi butted in again.
"What happened? Well, The End happened!" Blitz shot back in a wave of excitement," All I seen was a big bright light and then everything went black. All I can remember is a sharp pain in-between my withers."
"Whoa! So, is that how you got your wings!? Huh Blitz? Is that how!?" Serobi asked jumping around Blitz as if he were in a cage fight.
"Yes Serobi, that is how I got my wings and that, is how you got your horn," Blitz said calmly. Smiling, he stood up ruffling his wings, and walked over to the stream which he and Serobi has stopped at.
So here we are. What had happened was a highly-radioactive bomb had gone off right in the middle of Blitz and his herd’s world. Everything is the same, the food, the water, the landscape. Everything ... but the horses! Blitz and the one surviving mare had been chemically altered to become a Pegasus (Blitz) and a unicorn (the mare). The mare, which had already been bred before The End and died shortly after the waning, foaled Serobi, who was born a unicorn. Now every horse on the planet is either a Pegasus or a unicorn!
Come, nurse your mythical horse needs at Still They Stand!
As soon as we have more active members, we will be able to begin a plot that affects the STS community as a whole.
Hello there literate roleplayers. Are you tired of bland Light vs. Dark plots, equine RPGs that all seem the same, and plots that don't affect your character?
Well we've got a surprise for you. At The Secret it's not just about good and evil. In fact, good and evil don't have a lot to do with things. No matter whose side you're on, you can be as nice or as cruel as you see fit. But if you live in the north you'd better be tough if you want to stay alive. Here's a summary of what kinds of characters you can make:
Southern equines: The Resistance. You like freedom and would rather be left to your own devices. Conquering is not really your thing, you just want to be left alone to start a herd. Weakland equines: The Captives. You keep your head down and hope you don't get beaten up too often. You dream of escaping to the south, but know you'll be killed for trying. Mostly mares live here, though there is a small number of stallions. They usually get beaten down the most so they can't rebel. Northern equines: Tartarus's Legions. You work for the mastermind, Tartarus, the one who blew the news about the object of power out into the open. You answer to his captain Atlas, and you spend your time fighting, bullying mares in the Weaklands, and training colts for the army. If you have any spare time you can gather a small herd. Haven of Hesperides: The Secret Keepers. You know not hate nor greed, and you live within the walls of the Haven. You may leave to explore, but other equines seem so different to you. You live in peace and philosophy, seeking knowledge and enlightenment. But you know what is brewing, and the battle will come to your doorstep even though they cannot break down the door.
We are also accepting staff applications for Global Moderators, Graphics Designers and Skin Designer.
What's going on... ?
There was peace once, though by now it is but a distant memory in the minds of those old enough to remember. There was order and cohesion, and nothing to fear. The Keepers of Hesperides stayed within their walled Haven, and none disrupted their peace. There was always a rumor that an object of unspeakable power lay hidden within those great walls, but in time the rumor grew dull with age. But now a young stallion, maddened with greed, is gathering all the information he can about this mysterious object of celestial power. Flanked by the powerful drafts of the northern lands, he is murdering and taking prisoners left and right. There is only a handful of southern herds that stand against him, led by the mysterious Theseus. If they are vanquished, the Keepers will be on their own. Chaos and uncertainty abound. How much longer can the forces of reason hold off this madman?
The board is set, the pieces are in play. Whose side will you join?
Weeping Hollow Creek was not always weeping. No, once it was know as Cobble Creek, but that was so long ago it seems as if it never happened. The land of WHC was once a peaceful haven for all equines. All lived in happily. None believed them selves higher or greater over one another, for they all were equal. Until one was born differently. One who gain power than none have ever seen or had, the power of the Shadows. When this Knight’s third season came he rose above the Elders. Ones who ruled the land, they were also born differently but they were born with gifts or powers. But more of that later. Falling Arrows as the Duke was called rose above them, but his own abilities were new and he was not strong enough to fight them all, so he fled with another whom we never learned who he was or when we did it was too late.
-The Last Battle-
The Last Battle is really one out of many, though I’m sure you figured that out. I, Blue Lyrics, lead the rest of the Elders into that horrid battle. Falling Arrows or by now had gained the name “Shadow Lord” forces were fall greater than our own. But of course it was not just the Elders, no we had many others as well, which now we called ourselves Lights and the Shadow Lord’s followers, Darks. This battle was taken place at what is now known as Weeping Plains. The Lights once great fortress crumbled and we were forced to retreat back to the Hall. But soon Arrow attacked the Hall as well and it too crumbled.
-The Elders’ Betray-
The Elders, who now I shall explain more of who they were. A group of gifted equine that had powers of the Light. Only ten were born including myself. However our lifespan was longer than any other equine. We took and the duty to protect the land, which we lived in. Though we failed. The Shadow Lord had taken over the land completely and all of the ten Elders except for myself have been killed. Many assassinated by one who pains me to say, one who was an Elder and once a dear friend, Castaway betrayed us to Falling Arrows. When I found out, I thought we were d**ned, you see Castaway is, was a powerful and one of the first Elders. Between him and Arrows they had the ultimate power.
-A Light in the Darkness-
For almost a century our land of Cobble Creek was covered in darkness but now we called our once beautiful land Weeping Hollow Creek for it wept and was hollow. But a new hope was born about two winters ago, Caspian. It had been so long since one had been born with a “gift”. Though I never had seen the Light so strong with one before. The Light flowed powerfully with this particular Colt and a Colt he is. But I am not focusing o that, I know Caspian has the abilities to beat the Shadow Lord and we our forces are growing, more and more Lights are joining us and I pray that Caspian will bring peace back to the land of Weeping Hollow Creek.

Okay here's how to play. One person posts the lyrics or part of them with out the title of the song, or the artist. Then another person, or other people, try to guess the song's title and artist. It's so fun!
Okay, here's my entry:
I wanna scream until no sound comes out and you learn your lesson. I wanna swallow these pills to get to sleep so I don’t have to make a bad impression. I need to start to be myself, ‘cause I’m sick of everybody else. I wont let you bring me down. It’s here and now. I’m breaking out. I will learn to love again. But I will stand a broken man. I wanna run but only far enough for you to miss me. I wanna take back all the s**t that I have done but I guess that you are better off without me. I need to start to be myself, ‘cause I’m sick of everybody else. I wont let you bring me down. It’s here and now. I’m breaking out. I will learn to love again. But I will stand a broken man. I took one big step and looked away. And then I though off all the things that I wanted to say. I’m always to late. You never got your story straight. I’m always up late. I think I’m everything you hate. I took one big step and looked away. And then I though off all the things that I wanted to say. I’m always to late. You never got your story straight.

The Darq, The Light, and The Clumbsy (Free) « Result #4 on Jun 28, 2008, 4:23pm »
A clumsy doe with a charcoal pelt stumbled unto the sand. "How in the hell did I do that?" she huffed. She slowly stumbled up to the grassy part of the beach and shook the sand from her coat as she parted her legs for balance. 13 looked around wondrously. "What! A paradise!? But with no one around? Well, that just makes it a pretty hell." The vixen announced as she unsteadily scrambled around looking for a live creature to befriend. 13 stopped in front of an enormous coconut palm tree. "Who! Now that's tall!" she exclaimed as she stretched her neck vertically as to try to see the top. "Jez"

Lucky 13 « Result #6 on Jun 6, 2008, 7:38pm »
Picture:
Name:
Lucky 13 (13)
Age:
4 Years
Breed:
Marwari
Gender:
Mare
Height:
15.2 Hands
Weight:
850 Pounds
Markings:
Black coat with blaze and 3 socks, black pegasus wings
Alliance:
Darq
Personality:
13 is a very friendly equid. She loves to romp and act sort of like a foal. Sure, she sound like all fun and games, but she's not. She has a sickness, one that none of her herd members thought would ever come about them. The "Condition", let us say, has ruined every friendship, every hope, ever dream of 13's. She severely lacks balance and good luck. You probably think that luck is only a myth, right? Well, in 13's eyes luck id definitely not a myth. It plays a role in every step 13 takes, most of them ending in a stumble. 13's lack of luck and coordination make her a hazard not only to herself, but to the ones who surround her. How, no one knows, but 13 is able to stay cheery though it all. Sadly 13 has steadily grown more self-concise of clutsy behavior. The vixen tries to hid it all, but if you look deep enough, you may get a glimpse of her new worried self.
Sample Post:
iStumble, iFall iStillStandTall The darq vixen stumbled along the empty stream-bed., switching her whip tirelessly. She wasn't week. Hell, she wasn't even winded, she was just clumsy! She had always been that way, all her life. And she probably would stay that was until the day she died. The chocolate Marwari mare stopped as a shower of pebbles were strewn across her path before her from above. The doe pricked her auds as she turned to she what had made the commotion.
"Hello? Are you there? Who are you!?" 13 asked as she got excited.
She lunged toward the bank to see the new being, when she lost her unsure footing.
"Whoa!" she screamed as she stumbled and and made a face plant in the squishy earth. Jumping back up giggling, 13 looked around. No one was around.
"Hello!? You can't just leave me!? Come on!" Poor 13, rejected again

Serobi: The Dark One « Result #7 on Jun 4, 2008, 7:14pm »
>This Bio contains lines from a character named Blitz, who will be mentioned many times. Blitz has his own Bio.<
Picture: Name: Serobi Age: 3 years Breed: Arabian Gender: Filly Height: 14.3 hands Weight: 930 Pounds Markings: Black with a Unicorn horn Alliance: Dark Personality: Serobi is a very wild and rambunctious filly. She will do what she’s told, but not with out lots of questions! They aren’t evil or snotty questions, just questions. You see, she was deprived of having a mare around to teach her all of the things that all horses must know, scene her dam departed shortly after weaning. Serobi is constantly stuck to Blitz’s side. He is the only other horse that Serobi has ever know, not to even mention the fact that Blitz raised Serobi being both the prenatal units. So to sum it up, Serobi is a black, Arabian unicorn that has the mind of a foal. Sample Post: “Hey! Come here!” the chocolate princess shouted playfully, “ I see you Blitz!” She said as she chased after the ivory colored Pegasus. “I’m going to get you, Blitz!” They always played like this, Serobi and Blitz. Serobi liked Blitz and Blitz liked Serobi. He would always play with the ebonite doll whenever he had a chance. And that was a lot of the time. Serobi and Blitz were alone in their own little world. Serobi raced after Blitz as he dashed from tree to tree. “What’s wrong, Serobi? Tired already?” Blitz mocked playfully. The duchess was slowing. “No! Why would I be tired!?” Serobi defended, “Well, maybe a little.” Serobi had to accept defeat sometime. “Can we take a rest?” Thank the Gods!” Blitz exclaimed as he trotted over to where Serobi was standing. “Feel like a nap anyway.” “Yay!” Serobi celebrated as she snuggled close to Blitz, who had lain down to shield Serobi from the heavy wind.
Picture Soon To Come. To The Accepted Board!

Blitz: The Light One « Result #10 on Jun 1, 2008, 3:38pm »
Picture: Name: Blitz Age: 7 years Breed: Arabian Gender: Stallion Height: 15 hands Weight: 1,500 Pounds Markings: White Coat with black-ish forlegs and white Pegasus Wings Alliance: Light Personality: Blitz was there to see The End happen. He experianced it and lived through it. Before The End, Blitz was the leader of a herd, but now his only herd is Serobi, a three year old colt. Blitz is a very strong leader and knows what to do at the right time. He has no problem telling others what to do and is attached to Serobi, considering Serobi is the only other creature around. Sample Post:
Blitz trotted out of the cave, giving his wings a good shaking. "Serobi, come on. We are leaving." The gentle giant walked to the edge of the clift and looked about. 'It would be nice if Serobi could fly,' Blitz thought, ' The ledges are going to get pretty steep.' Blitz and Serobi had come from the other side of the vally to endup here. "Come Serobi, we must move along. It has been at least eight years sence I have been along this trail, and it will be dark soon," Blitz said as he started down the train the lead into a meadow that haden't been touched in nearly eight years.
Picture will be added soon! To The Board!
