CELESTIA IS BEST PONY
But seriously people think I make a good Celestia, so why not? I want some pony RP, man.
What do you know about this character?
Celestia is a diarch - at one time, the sole monarch - of Equestria. She rules alongside her younger sister Luna.
As an alicorn, Celestia wields immense strength and the innate abilities of all three kinds of pony- the magic and arcane wisdom of the Unicorns, the flight and weather control of the Pegasi, and the fortitude and natural connection of the Earth Ponies. Celestia's magic is such that she can reach into the heavens above and turn the very sun and moon across the sky. She primarily takes responsibility only for the day, as her sister Luna usually presides over the night.
Celestia's power is largely regarded with a cheerful awe by her subjects- every year the Summer Sun Celebration is held as a stage for the Princess to demonstrate raising the sun before what are often enormous crowds. Many ponies are apt to immediately bow in her presence, as a sign of their great respect for her.
Day to day, the Princess is a gentle and playful soul who finds many of the more formal aspects of her rulership tiring. She finds irritating ponies who are too prim, proper or stuffy - such as the ilk of pony most likely to attend the Grand Galloping Gala - and often tries to gently get them to loosen up in whatever manner suits the situation. She even expressed great cheer at Twilight and her friends once "ruining" the Gala with their antics, for she found its normal proceedings dull and dreary.
Despite her kind mannerisms, many ponies of Equestria - and even those beyond - show a deep fear of provoking Celestia's wrath. There are ponies who will trip over their own hooves in an effort to appease her, as if expecting she may banish them from Equestria entirely if they should fail even one small thing.
Perhaps this fear is not entirely unfounded, for Celestia's magic is certainly one of the strongest defences Equestria has. Using the Elements of Harmony, it has even banished no less than three villainous forces from the very face of the world. However, she is far from invincible - especially now that her connection to the Elements has been passed down to Twilight and her friends - and sometimes requires the help of others to defeat greater, looming threats that she cannot handle alone.
(More to be written later, I guess? So much character depth and I'm not even into headcanon territory yet...)
How often are you online?
Every damn day, every damn day, we work together every damn daaay~ (x)
A roleplay example:
Celes's attention moved, but her line of sight did not. Only the swerve of her ears atop her head was any indication that she'd heard Luna at all. She answered only with a calm but audible inhale, then inevitably followed by a relaxed sort of sigh. While her initial thought was to question why the younger was still awake, the conversation had already started and so the admittedly fruitless question was cast aside in order to respond to the one posed to her. "It did seem such a waste to spend a lovely day indoors. There were few petitioners this morning, and most of their concerns were allayed easily enough." So basically, she had nothing better to do. "I suppose I do also enjoy the open space... as it seems you have come to do?" She finally broke her set gaze and looked to her left to where Luna approached. "Maybe we ought to renovate the castle," she added with a small laugh at the thought. "Or just move the throne over here..."
