About
The Land of Equestria is a glittering jewel of peace and carefully maintained harmony, ruled by the diarchs of the sun and moon. Under their careful tending, Equestria has blossomed into a thriving country full of many different ponies and creatures all living together. Though the day by day is prone to random disasters or small chaotic events set in motion by one thing or another, it is a pleasant and rich land underlaid by darker activities and left over forces from days of yore.
To get around the dream, there are a few commands that can be used to access the areas. You can view these commands by saying &Commands. If you wish to use an area and roleplay it as another location not seen in the dream, then you have the freedom to do so, or roleplay in the correct thread here on the forum!
This dream is more open to original characters so that people may have more freedom, and we will also allow any species that are a part of the My Little Pony universe to be roleplayed (see the Species thread for more information). We will now allow alicorn OCs, too, under very specific rules, which can be found in the Rules thread! There will not have to be applications for them, but please run your character and ideas by the dream owner and staff first!
And, though it shouldn't have to be said, this dream is a safe place for anyone who is LGBT+

NOTICES
For all newcomers, please understand that this dream isn't Furn, and isn't in Furn. Please do not try to solicit sex or sexual roleplays from others! Those that come here come for general roleplay, not your fantasies.

Do not try to impose on canon roleplayers. It's just not fair to try to make someone change how they roleplay their character to suit your wants. They're not obligated to entertain them if they don't want to.
We now have a discord server for My Little Pony roleplay! Contact Nightking if you're interested in joining.

Lodgings
There are various apartments scattered around the dream for people to use as homes. Please take note that there can be no official claims made on these homes. If you find an empty one to base as your character's home, then you may use it; if you leave it or log off, anyone else can use the home/room after.
The same can be said of the Everfree hut, as well as the shops, the library, the schoolhouse, and other establishments that are located in the dream for anyone wishing to have a character working there or owning said establishment.

Technology Level
Because magic is such an innate part of this world, the technology level varies with ponies depending on what is needed.
For example, ponies are a mobile species and because of that, they have no need for cars or other such motorized vehicles. Instead, they pull carts, chariots, wagons, stagecoaches and carriages. The coal-powered Friendship Express (and perhaps the Crystal Empire train too), are other forms of travel for ponies. Lesser forms seem to be by hot air balloon and steampunk-style airships.
Commonly found technology consists of magic-powered refrigerators, stoves, washing/drying machines, microphones, speakers, gramophones, folding cameras, radiators, hairdryers, cylinder mowers, film projectors, printing presses, coffee-makers and tape players. Less common would be radios and headphones. They use vinyl records, but do not have CDs. Furthermore, there isn't anything resembling a computer, or similar device, like iPods, touchscreen tablets, or phones/cellphones. They communicate through letters. While they have no video games/consoles/controllers (and thus no televisions), they do have arcade machines which are likely rare. There is also no manner of internet/wifi.
They have running water and a pipe system, no doubt with a magical filtration system, which means they have sinks, bathtubs, and maybe even toilets. However some may still use old-fashioned outhouses. There is also some manner of magical lighting, in homes, stores, as well as stage lights. Everything else is more or less set at a medieval level.
