It's been a few years since the great Spiderwing's death and Nightwing's disappearance. The herd that Spiderwing had created has swelled to even larger numbers then imagined. The new Over-Stallion of Spider Herd is attempting to hold the herd together, but rising tensions within the herd may prove that endeavor to be futile. The herd is split two ways, those who believe that they should remain together, and those who believe they should split and populate the land of Western Anok with pegasi with like abilites and strengths. Will these quarrels end up splitting Spider Herd? Or will the new Over-Stallion and Lead Mare of Spider Herd succeed in keeping them together?
YAY!! Part 1 of my new RP!! LET THE ROLEPLAY COMMENCE!!

Waterdream:
MInd: if only spiderwing was here
Anyone here?
Back summary pls
Winterglade:
She flapped her wings harder, and passed Roserise.
Roserise:
He neighed in amusement and did the same. (bye!)
(oof, bye!)
Winterglade:
She rolled her eyes, but flapped up and passed Roserise again, swishing her tail in his face.
Roserise:
He flapped upward. "Flying." (gtg)
Winterglade:
SHe snorted, realizing how stupid this was. She still rose higher, not wanting Roserise to have the last word. "What are you doing?" She whinnied to him.
Roserise:
He neighed and rose higher than the cloud, which was rather small.
Opalstar:
She snorted and followed them.
(XD I think I'm starting to ship them...)
Winterglade:
She groaned in frustration and flew higher, passing Roserise.
Roserise:
He flew higher and accidently bumped into Winterglade. He shied back and flapped higher still.
(XDDDDDD this is so funny!!)
WInterglade:
SHe scoffed, and pushed down on the wind with her wings, rising higher than Roserise, and she entered a cloud.
Opalstar:
She watched, amused. "You two," she muttered.
Roserise:
He twirled and rose even higher.
Winterglade:
SHe narrowed her eyes and swished her tail, feeling threatened. She flew up higher and Roserise's gaze again.
Roserise:
He rose higher.
Winterglade:
She flew up to Roserise's height, and met his eye.
Roserise:
He snorted at Winterglade and rose above her, staring her down.
(hiiiii anyone here?)
(HIIIIIIIIII! What'd I miss?)
Opalstar:
She considered that. "I suppose...."
(oooooof! I gtg have dinner :(
Winterglade:
"If it comes to that, we will. But I'm sure Cliffwing would send someone to look for us." SHe said.
Opalstar:
"Why don't we just sneak away then?"
WInterglade:
"To allow us to leave peacefully, so we won't have to fight our way out of the herd, to avoid a battle that could lead to war!" She whinnied, striking the clouds with her hooves.
Roserise:
He cocked his head. "But I want the herd to stay together, not fall apart! Why would I do that?"
Winterglade:
"You won't have to join us in the new herd, just help us try to convince our overstallion to let us go." SHe said.
(hehe, if you can't tell, I forgot the overstallion's name o o p s i e)
Roserise:
"But we are stronger together."
Opalstar:
She shook her head. "The herds are going to split whether you want them to or not, brother."
WInterglade:
SHe flicked her ears. "Tensions are building at our overstallion's attempt to keep us together. We will leave one way or another, and by him forcing us to stay, it will most likely lead to a battle." SHe said.
Roserise:
He pushed down on the wind, frowning. "How so?"
(ooooooh, maybe!!!)
WInterglade:
SHe reached them, and hovered, her wings flexing. "It's in the herd's best interest to split." She nickered.
Roserise:
He flattened his ears. "She's been trying, but she hasn't succeeded yet," he shot at her. Opalstar grinned at him. (Ooh, Roseglade?!)
Winterglade:
Flying closer, she recognized the two pegasi. "Opalstar, have you convinced your brother to join us?" SHe whinnied.
(Roserise is against, Opalstar is for)
Roserise:
He circled his sister.
(Are Roserise and Opalstar for or against the herd splitting?)
Winterglade:
Looking ahead, she saw two more pegasi. She flexed her mint green wings, and surged toward them.
Opalstar:
She twisted and grinned at her brother below her. "Hey!"
Roserise:
He sore to Opalstar's height and hovered. Looking past her, he saw another pegasus.
WInterglade:
SHe sees someone fly by and decides to convince Oceanmoon and SMokewind another day, when she's more prepared. "I will be back another time," She warned them. "Be prepared to choose your side." SHe flew away.
Roserise:
He glanced up and saw his sister, Opalstar, flying overhead, and jumped off the ground.
(hello?)
Aquasun: "Do you want to do it now, or later?"
(back for a bit!)
Winterglade:
She hovered, trying to figure out how to convince them to help the herd split. Oceanmoon was one of Spiderwing's foals, and she knew that it would be hard to convince her. But she hoped she could convince SMokewind to help her. He was very strong and capable for his age, and WInterglade had a feeling that he could become an overstallion one day.
"Just hear me out, ok?" She asked them.
Oceanmoon:
She huffed.
Smokewind:
He lightly touched Oceanmoon's shoulder with his wing. "Calm down," He nickered gently.
(oof, gtg :(
Oceanmoon: She rattled her feathers. "DO YOU KNOW WHO I AM?" she snapped. She flapped her wings faster.
Winterglade:
She pinned her ears slightly. "I'm Winterglade," She said. "I am one of the main pegasi behind the uprising for the herd to split."
Oceanmoon: She glared at Winterglade. "And who are you?" she snapped.
Winterglade:
SHe coasted on the wind, searching for pegasi to convince to want the herd to split. She saw Smokewind and Oceanmoon, and narrowed her eyes. She pricked her ears and soared over to them. "Hey Lovebirds," She nickered annoyingly.
(yeah... I came up with a new character that hasn't been out in the character page yet. SHe can come up and annoy them?)
Oceanmoon: She smiled. (I feel like some action or something should happen or just...idk)
SMokewind:
He flapped his wings and looked at Oceanmoon.
Oceanmoon: She flapped her wings.
Starspark:
He looked at Hollyfeather.
(Um... what was happening with Oceanwind before I left?)
Springfeather:
"Yeah," She nickered.
Aquasun:
She tilted her head. "Should we go apologize to her (Hollyfeather)?" She asked Springfeather
(HIIIIIIIIIIII PEEPS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)
(hiiii anyone wanna RP?)
(hiiiii anyone on?)
(Anyone here?)
(HI!!! Summary?)
Hollyfeather:
She sighed, blowing softly into Starspark's nose, hoping to exchange breath with him.
Sandsong,
She walked beside her sister.
Aquastar:
She walked away
Frostroot:
”Your welcome.}
Aquastar:
She nodded, "Thank you Frostroot." She said
Frostroot:
”Two will be enough. You can eat more after five hours.”
Aquastar:
"How much of them should I eat?"
Frostroot:
She gives Aquastar some poppy seeds. “Eat these, but don’t overdose.” She warned.
Aquastar:
"Yes please." She said
Frostroot:
She looks at Aquastar. “It looks like your sides are bruised, but your wings don’t look as good. You lost a few feathers, and the wings are slightly twisted. It won’t ground you forever, but for now, you shouldn’t fly. I can give you some herbs for the pain if you need it.”
Aquastar:
She nodded weakly, "My wings and sides."
Frostroot:
”Does anything hurt?”
Aquastar:
She felt tears rolling down her face.
Aquastar:
She felt tears rolling down her face.
Frostroot:
She ran over to Aquastar. “Are you okay?”
Sandsong,
"Of course sis," she said putting a wing over her sister.
Aquastar:
She was shaking. "T-thanks Sandsong."
Duststrike:
He trotted away
Sandsong,
She glared at Duststrike, and helped her sister out of the lake.
Aquastar:
"Help!" She spluttered, seeing Frostroot
Frosroot:
She saw Aquastar being pushed into the lake, but turned away to loo like she didn’t notice.
Aquastar:
She walked toward the herd.
Duststrike:
As Aquastar passed him he shoved her into the lake.
Frostroot:
She sorted her herbs, carefully putting the poisons and death berries she had gathered in a special hiding spot.
(I have a large dog on my lap so it may take me a while to respond XD)
Springfeather:
"Maybe not," She agreed. "You ok, Hollyfeather?" She asked her sister.
Aquasun: "Maybe that wasn't the best idea Springfeather" She said with a small chuckle
Sandsong,
"Alrighty,"
Aquastar:
She smiled. "Let's go talk to Mama and Papa
Sandsong,
Sje smiled and came up beside Aquastar, "yeah you did!"
(One last comment)
Aquastar:
She smiled I did it!"
Dusttail,
He lashed his tail, "you may think you have won this but you haven't!" He said sharply, then he whirled around, his tail lashing Aquastar's face. And he cantereed into the Jungle.
(Kay he's all yours again)
)I gtg for the night, bye!)
Aquastar:
"I am no coward!" She said rearing and whinnying sharply
Duststrike,
"Go back to you're sister!" He whinnied stepping closer to her.
Aquastar:
She whinnied sharply
Duststrike,
He whinnied loudly, lashing out more with his hooves.
Aquastar:
She stood taller, arching her neck
Duststrike,
He reared up, flaring his wings to help him balance, "you better go!" He growled lashing out his hooves but didn't scratch her, only getting close.
Aquastar:
"No!" She said, rearing
Duststrike,
He flared his wings, and reared slightly, "go back to your sister," he growled.
Sandsong,
She swam in place ready to intervein kf needed.
Aquastar:
"But I'm not." She said, her large wings making her look bigger than she was
Duststrike,
He stepped closer, "you should be," he said he easily towered a head over her even though they were the samw age.
Aquastar:
"I'm not scared of you!" She said, keeping her voice calm
Duststrike,
He bared his teeth, "you better run along back to your sister," he growled "before you say something you regret,"
