Basic Fun Moondancer!

I've had this gal for a while in her box, waiting for a special occasion to open her up. Well I think turning 30 certainly counts :D

She's really beautiful but she has some hairstyling product in her hair that I'll have to wash out

MK1 Guest Character: Blizto

Thank you: Geeky4ever2016 and everyone that helped me with this.

Intro 1: When Blitzo pushes his opponent back, he spins around and pulls out his gun. Blitzo then smirks and waves his gun, as if saying “bring it on.”

Intro 2: When Blitzo is pushed back, he stops himself by clawing the floor. Looking up in anger, he gets up and pulls his gun out.

Outro: Blitzo using stolas grimoire to get home and as he jumps into the portal he flips off his opponent and by extension us.

Fatal Blow: Blitzo pulls out the My Dick bazooka and fires. It misses, but the explosion sends the opponent to Blizto, where he proceeds to stab them repeatedly.

Fatality 1 (Deep I.M.P.-side): Blitzo takes out the Grimoire and summons a portal on the ground, behind his opponent. Blitzo shoots them down into it, cutting them off at the legs.

The opponent looks up to see they are in I.M.P. headquarters, surrounded by Moxxie, Millie, and Loona, who brutally murders the opponent.

Fatality 2: Blitz uses his gun to shoot his victim’s arms and legs before shoving his gun down their throats and fire it inside.

Friendship: He reaches under his jacket (looks like he is reaching for his gun) when he pulls out a pony and sits down and starts playing with it

Quitality: Blitzo just turns around and wipes his hands. “Well… That was a surprise.” “Well… A payday is a payday.”

Intros:

Ashrah: Once I kill you, I shall be redeemed. Blitzo: And once I kill you, I shall be home sleeping.

Blitzo: Wait… The Princess was right? Ashrah: What are you talking about?

Blitzo: Fuck damn! I am hot. Blitzo: I'd totally fuck myself.

Blitz: Oh Satan, tell me I’m not fucking hallucinating again! Blitz: You and me both.

Blitzo: You’re with that whore? Blitzo: Do you insult my wife, Verosika?

Blitz: Everyone hates your guts too? Blitz: Yep, though it’s mostly mutual.

Baraka: I'm not afraid of dying, servant. Blizto: Oh good, an easy job this time.

Blizto: You ever shove those blades up someone’s ass. Baraka: No, but you can be the first.

Ermac: We are many. You are one. Blitzo: The one that’s going to kill you all.

Blitzo: Do you ever fuck yourself? Ermac: Why would we ever do that?

Blitzo: Wait, there’s an entire world of chaos? Havik: No rules. No limits. All possibilities.

Blitzo: I must say, you’re the most talked about “hero” in Hell. Homelander: Who? I’ll kill them!

Homelander: No one can stop me! No one! Blitzo Aw, you goanna throw a temper tantrum?

Homelander: I will rip out your spine, smash your brains, and eat your heart. Blitzo: You know, that seriously turns me on.

Johnny Cage: Haven’t I seen you somewhere before? Blitzo: Well… I was on TV once.

Johnny Cage: Your father was a piece of shit too? Blitzo: Just a piece? He was the whole fucking pile.

Johnny cage: You know you remind me of a character I played. Blitz: You’re that shitty actor in those fucking b list movies?!

Blitz: Sheesh here I thought I was bad at performing Johnny cage: Tell that to my Emmy awards.

Blitz: “Over 50 people in Hell are paying us to put a bullet through your brain.” Johnny Cage; “Katie? Priscilla? Belle! She hated me.”

Kenshi: I turned away from my life of crime. Blitzo: Tell that to the people that paid us.

Blitzo: How the Hell can you fight blind? Kenshi: Sento sees all.

Kitana: Quin Chi’s minions will not threaten Outworld. Blitzo: What the fuck are you talking about?

Blitzo: 10000 years, and still fucking hot? Kitana: And you don’t have a chance.

Kung Lao: You face the great Kung Lao. Blitzo: “Great” my ass.

Omni-man: Who paid you to kill? Blitzo: No one! This one's on the house!

Peacemaker: Your killing spree ends here! Blitzo: Gee fucking a hypocrite much?

Blitzo: For someone who "loves peace," you sure kill a lot. Peacemaker: I kill anyone who treats peace.

Quan Chi: You and your servers will serve me. Blitzo: Sorry you crazy maniac but we don’t “serve” anyone.

Blitzo: We don’t work for free. Quan Chi: You will be rewarded ten times over.

Blitzo: You're one ugly fucker! Reptile: Some acid will make you uglier.

Blitz: Man it takes some bad luck for someone to fuck you. Reptile: After this battle the only unlucky one will be you.

Reptile: What do you want with the Saurians? Blitzo: Some new snakeskin boots.

Raiden: You face Earthrealm’s champion. Blitzo: Can I get an autograph before you die?

Blitzo: You know, my phone could use a recharge. Raiden: My lightning isn’t met for stuff like that.

Rain: I knew this day would come. Blitzo: People were beating down the doors to hire us.

Blitzo: A little Rain doesn’t scare me. Rain: It will cause a biblical flood.

Blitzo: I'm fireproof asshole! Scorpion: There's more to me then fire.

Scorpion: Bi-Han is my business, not yours. Blitzo: But we're running a special on family members.

Subzero: Hell will freeze, before you kill me Blitzo: Yeah, yeah, same line, different guy.

Subzero: Any last requests? Blitzo: Yeah, can I get a scotch on the rocks.

Blitzo: Someone in Hell wants to see you again. Subzero: Who is this person?

Shang Tsung: Even the forces of the Netherrealm come after me. Blitzo: You won’t believe the price on your head.

Blitzo: So many sinners want you dead. Shang Tsung: *laughs* I’m sure they do.

Sindel: Who sent you to kill me? Blizto: Someone with deep pockets.

Blizto: You know, my ex was a singer. Sindel: Sorry, I don’t do performances.

Blizto: Don’t you know smoking kills? Smoke: Yeah, you.

Blizto: Nice trick. Do you do children’s parties? Smoke: I’m not a magician.

Smoke: Quin Chi should have sent better minions. Blizto: Hey! I was just getting some drinks!

Blizto: You know, I could use you on my team. Takeda: You'll have to kill me first.

Takeda: The Red Dragons are my prey. Blizto: You're not the one under contract.

Blizto: Does your Empress eat you out? Tanya: You are disgusting.

Tanya: What demonic monstrosity spawned you? Blizto: Hey! No one talks about my mother that way!

Story Mode Final Boss

Liu Kang: And they call me the Chosen One. Blizto: Yeah… Well, I am pretty awesome. Liu Kang: You have done more than enough. Allow me to end this

Blizto’s MK Tower Ending Well… shit! First, we are hired to kill some shit face actor, leading us into “entering” fucked-up kung-fu tournament, then “landing” in some shitty war for the “fate of the universe.”

Oh well, at least we got a job from a “god” of all things, and he’s playing shit tons for us to track down and bring in these two sorcerers, some egoistic former general and his right-hand man, and others in alive.

Oh well, if we end up having to kill them. Tough luck.

Lair Review for Goanna #1321

Hi friend, thanks for spoiling me @goannafr <3

I totally didn’t realize how long you’ve been on FR my goodness. I can’t wait to dive into your lair and better explore all your pretty dragons, but I think you and I both know who one of my guaranteed picks are gonna be :’)

Casban: That is some top tier art you did for her bio. I love her looks and her aspirations. You can be fierce and still be sweet. I think she’s going to look lovely with filigree and I like the shiny effect her accent is currently giving her. I envy her old fest apparel and her colors are just stunning!

Tikkukaramelli: Peppermint child! I lover her name. Elaborate names like hers have really been sticking with me as I do these reviews. I love her accent, especially the christmas lights on her wings. I think this is the first I’m realizing that the chillspike crown covers more than just the head? Huh. The fade in from the peppermint to her primary is very nice and I like how the smoke also works like candy cane stripes. I’ll have to put in an order, I’m craving candy.

Hyppia: Leap year baby! I want one so bad. I love his name and his appearance. It’s simple and elegant, he seems like such a sweetheart. I feel like Sigur Rós music would fit him very well. I love his peace dove and his accent, especially that little green smoke trail blooming from the flowers. He’s the kind of dragon I’d want to just sit and talk to. 

Snuzzle: You know I love her so much, being my favorite of the original ponies. She works so perfectly as a Tundra and I love the accent you made her. All the art you’ve drawn of her is spectacular to say the least. I need to do some art for her. She’s so soft and sweet I just wanna hug her forever. You really did just a spectacular job bringing her to life on this site <3

Goanna: Your namesake! I love her floppy fins and her dog friends. Please tell me you’re going to make that seagull sweater into a skin because I’m in love. I love the softness of her purples and the patchy piebald. And that contour! The blue is so striking in comparison and really makes her stand out. I think she’d look nice with the blue glowing clawtips.

Madrigal: Cries over that low ID#. I couldn’t help but pick your icon dragon. Her accent is very pretty, I like how the dark purple fade on her lower wings compliments her armor colors. Her seafoam scales provide the perfect amount of softness and is just so visually appealing with the bright orange of her wings. I’m proud of her from reaching her Level 25 goals.

Marble: What a mysterious girl! Again, tangled trickery is one of the best fest accents we’ve ever gotten. She radiates the ideals of basic is beautiful. I’m guessing she was from the very first NotN? Great choice with the raven sylvan items, their subtly reds contract nicely with her colors and I love how the black jewelry looks on her.

Voitta: Victory sheep! Such an interesting reason to hatch, things like this are what makes me want to get more involved in DOM. I love the outfit ideas in her bio (especially the one with the softer prismatic silks) but I also like her outfit as is right now. I love that you draw her as a sheep but she still has that Tundra body, it’s such a neat idea and really well drawn.

Paluu: Its a miracle I don’t have my own dragon for this skin considering how much I love it. Such a good boy. The primal gladiator set is perfect for him. I love how the banner drapes over his wings. I love how you draw him with the freckles, braided hair, and your own take on his antlers/horns. You add so much life to your characters in your art and it never fails to amaze me.

Rupikonna: SWAMP CHILD. I want to make an awful shrek meme for her bio. I love swamp, it’s a very underappreciated color. Normally not an okapi fan but it really works on her and compliments her greens. I love her frog kids and her cobwebs. The Kelpie was a perfect familiar choice for her. I think she’d look nice with a kelpie mane herself.

My little pony season 7 episode 14 (Fame and misfortune) review

Wow, now here is an episode that subverted my expectations. I very much expected this to be a very forgettable episode, given the emotionally powerful experience we had last episode, in addition to the long stream of good, even excellent episodes we’ve been having this season it only seems natural to have one episode that just didn’t live up to the expectations set by the other episodes. Especially upon reading the plot synopses I didn’t expect anything specially. “Oh, they publish the friendship journal from season four and the pony public argue over which lesson is better. What are we just goanna have another moral about how every contribution is worthwhile? I’m sorry but Made in Manehatten already did that moral practically perfectly, there’s no point in re-treading it. Or what? Are they going to have a moral about how arguing is bad? What a terrible moral! Arguing can be very healthy in a friendship! God this is Where the Applejack lies levels of incompetency and simplicity! This episode is goanna suck!”  I foolishly thought, and as I can be a self righteous, close minded twat at times, I failed to see any other potential in the set up. But, low and behold, this episode actually ended up being a constantly hilarious, charming, intelligently written and adorable tale with a unique yet important moral that I never could have seen coming. Wow wasn’t this an eye opener, sorry M.A Larson, I’ll never doubt your writing abilities again, sure you’ve had a few bad episodes, like, in my opinion It’s about time, but for every bad episode you’ve made you have many excellent ones such as The cutie mark chronicles, Magic duel and especially Amending fences.  It may have done me some good to research the fact that you were writing this before I saw the episode; that may have caused me to not as harshly judge it before even seeing it. Any hooves, enough with the filler, lets actually get started with the review

So the story begins with Twilight taking a casual stroll through Ponyville, where she discovers two Fillies having a petty argument as children are prone to do, though she uses the moral of friendship being something difficult but ultimately being worth it, that she learnt all the way back in The return of Harmony, to calm the two down; however this causes her to remember the friendship journal and she rushes back to her castle to find it. Now what I really like about this opening as it shows how Twilight operates as the princess of friendship on a smaller scale, sure we’ve seen her deal with massive, cutie map related friendship problems, act as a mediator between her friends and even take on a student in the form of ex-sociopath Starlight Glimmer. But here we see her acting on her feet and using morals that she learnt a long time ago to help the friendships of others, this shows how Twilight as a character has grown both from the socially isolated introvert we saw in season one to the competent yet still quirky leader we see today, as well as how she has gone from student to teacher, delivering the basic friendship lessons that she once learned to others; it’s a small moment but I still think its note worthy. Moving on. So Twilight goes back to casa-de saw thumb, where she finds the friendship journal… Looking like it’s just survived being in the middle of a “best ship” war. Thus she has Starlight create multiple copies of the journal using her magic for each of the other mane six and Starlight herself. Side note, I have no idea why Starlight isn’t considered part of the mane group yet, I mean she lives with Twilight, has proven herself to have moved past her old self, leading the pony suicide squad to save Equestria, she’s even been called upon by the cutie map! Come on DHX; give her a throne at the round table. Regardless, Twilight then proposes to the group that they should have the journal published so that the lessons inside can enhance the lives and friendships of all the ponies of Equestria. The group unanimously agree and we see copies of the journal being delivered all around Equestria… Ok we only see it being delivered in Ponyville and Manehatten but come on, use your imagination here. And so the journal becomes a huge hit with many Equestrian ponies loving it.

We see the initial positive effect of the journal with young foals in Ponyville being guided by it, however we quickly see the mane six’s initial positive intent has allowed for a variety of negative outcomes such as the CMC using it as a marketing tool and a group of ponies from Philidelphia only having it as a collector’s item. We also see many Ponies taking objections with them messages within the journal, as well as begin to see the mane six differently. Now here is where we see the episode’s now infamous Meta humour and commentary come into play, as we see Twilight roaming Ponyville, viewing how the response to the journal is impacting each of the other members of the mane six individually, we see the surrounding ponies imitating common complaints and mindsets that the brony fandom have toward the show. For instance some stuck-up ponies at a café complain about how Rarity isn’t really learning anything, practically all the townsfolk who have known Pinkie for years begin to claim that she “is even funnier in person”, neglecting to see her as a four dimensional, complex character who experiences very real emotion as she is “the funny one”. We see Flutershy being pestered by a group of ponies who want to know why she keeps learning the same moral over and over again, and we see both Applejack and Rainbow Dash being constantly harassed by raving fans that deny they have any faults and believe they didn’t to learn anything to begin with. This is incredibly intelligent writing on behalf of M.A. Larson as it shows that both he and the writing staff in general, are aware of the issues that many people have with the show, however it also counters them by giving reasons for why things are the way they are, for instance Flutershy is able to stand up for herself and ask her critics if they were ever able to completely change themselves after only one experience. As stated previously, this is a very eye opening experience and this is an example of why, as Flutershy is correct, people can’t completely change themselves after learning something one time, thus counteracting the common complaint that Flutershy is just learning to be assertive all the time as, through doing so, she is going through a natural progression of coming out of her shell and thus a better and more active friend. Through this, Larson has shown that, just how the ponies missed the true meaning of the journal by nitpicking small details, bronies can sometimes miss the true meaning of an episode by nitpicking similar small details. I don��t think he meant any malicious intent with this as some people generally enjoy prowling for small details and finding small things that go past the eyes of other viewers, there is no incorrect way to enjoy something, he was just showing that he, nor any of the other writers are perfect and they will occasionally let small things past by them, thus there is no point in looking down on an episode for such small details as imperfections are something to be expected and specifically looking for these imperfections with the sole intent of looking down on the episode and taking away its credibility  goes against the nature of the show and shows that you were never really  a fan of the show in the first place. I repeat myself, looking for small details for the fun of it, CinemaSins style, is fine, but trying to present these ultimately insignificant complaints as actual criticism is not.

The thing that really ties this all together and proves it however, in my opinion is the ending and the moral. So at the end of the episode, the mane six, without Twilight make their way past a barrage of critic ponies and reach Twilight’s castle. They all seem in very emotionally fragile states, especially Rarity (#Stresscouture), due to the strain that has been added onto their lives due to the publishing of the friendship journal, Twilight is has also become emotionally fragile throughout the course of the episode, to the point of window staring! All seems lost until Starlight gets an idea and teleports away, creating a genuinely good suspense for how she will fix the situation. Though Twilight also decides that something needs to be done to calm the raging bronies… I mean ponies that await them outside. Now this leads to what is easily one of my, if not my absolute, favourite part of the episode, after some admittedly very funny satire of bronies as the critic ponies very blatantly spell out common complaints with the show from the fandom, one journalist even straight up tells Twilight that her “character would have been much more interesting if she had stayed in Canterlot”. Following this however is the song “Flawless”, which was, in my opinion, one of the best songs of the entire series. On the surface this song focuses on how the mane six are in fact not flawless, nor is anypony, and that it is are flaws that make us who we are, “we’ve got dents and we’ve got quirks but it’s are flaws that make us work”, and any good friend will look past your flaws and love you regardless of them; as Twilight says right after the song “without our flaws, there probably wouldn’t be any friendships at all” showing how it’s are flaws that bring us together and what test us to stay together; if we were perfect, we would have no drive to interact and would have no way of experiencing true joy. However looking deeper into the Meta commentary of this episode adds even more depth to this already fantastic piece. See, this entire time, the critic ponies have represented the brony fandom and the journal has represented the show, which naturally means that the mane six, who wrote the friendship journal represent, not just the writing staff but the entire Friendship is magic production crew. Hus when the mane six are literally singing “we’re not flawless”, it symbolises how the production team themselves don’t view themselves as perfect and that the very fact is something to be celebrated. The nostalgia critic says in his “Can a film be so good it’s bad?” video on YouTube that if a film is too good it can create a disconnect between its audience and the film maker, making the film less enjoyable over all, the film needs to show some cracks in its armour to show that the film was still made by humans, making it more identifiable; the same thing goes for friendship is magic. If every single episode was perfect, no animation errors, no cringe worthy writing, no out of character moments, there would be nothing to critique, nothing to praise or dismiss, but there would also be no hype as there would never be the possibility that an episode may not live up to it, we would get used to everything be perfect all the time and it would become boring very quickly. So it’s the flaws of the show, and its makers, that allow us to have fun critiquing what is done wrong but also enjoy and praise what is done spectacularly. Simply put: if there weren’t any flaws in MLP, there would be no brony fandom, no community where so many have found a sense of belonging. And besides, without any flaws in animation at least, there would be no Derpy Hooves, and I don’t want to live in a world without Derpy Hooves.

Astonishingly however, taking pride in and dealing with our flaws is not the only moral this episode presents! This is shown once the critic ponies fail to comprehend Twilight’s message and begin to argue amongst themselves, forcing the Mane six back into the castle. Here, Starlight reappears with the two Fillies that Twilight confronted at the beginning of the episode, who have now had their friendship restored thanks to the positive influence they received from the friendship journal. The two then thank the mane six for this, which causes them to calm down and respect that even though so many ponies misinterpreted their good intention, turning it into something negative, the very fact that it has had a positive impact on somepony else makes all the difference. This relates very much too real life as people can often get distorted when they have a good intention when releasing something they put a lot of hard work into out into the public and it gets rejected, however if that project has a positive impact on even  just one person the hard work is still worth it. However it also relates to the Meta commentary as it shows that the production staff are above being petty about the aggressive cries of the loud minority of a fandom that on the whole has nothing but respect for them, as if even just one person learns something about friendship or if just one person praises them for what they’ve produced, they know their hard work was worth it. I also love Flutershy’s line about how “we can’t change the way other ponies think about us, but we can change how we let it affect us”, showing just how mature the production team are, but also giving a little moral about how we just encourage more aggressive behaviour if we give those supplying it the reaction they want.

Overall, Fame and misfortune is not only one of the best episodes of season seven, but in my opinion, one of the best episodes of the entire series thus far! On the surface it provides a an excellent episode for those un aware of the brony fandom, giving lots of excellent humour in the form of superb facial expressions, stress rarity in particular, showing how far the show’s animation has progressed since its opening, as well as a superb and unique moral about taking pride in your flaws and how friendships ultimately rely on them. For those who are aware of or even a part of the brony fandom however, this episode provides excellent commentary and satire on how the production team view the common complaints that bronies have with the show, as well as showing how they know they’re not perfect and take pride in that fact. Moreover, I think it’s important to note that M.A. Larson had no ill intent towards the brony fandom with this episode, shown by how Twilight didn’t “deal” with the critic ponies at the end of the episode, letting them instead just use the journal as they will and that the fact that the journal had a positive impact on other ponies is what is really important, suggesting that Larson, and the others in the production staff, have the maturity to let others enjoy the show how they will because it’s the fact that others are taking away something positive that is really important. Besides, the moral of this episode is to celebrate are flaws and what would we be if we didn’t embrace ours to, just like it’s the flaws of two people that draw them together as friends, it’s the flaws of the brony and pegisister fandom and friendship is magic that pull us together. In conclusion, I really have nothing majorly negative to say about this episode, wow for an episode about flaws it surely didn’t have a lot of them, the only bad things could say about it would be petty nitpicks such as where was Spike during all of this? So over all this is one of the best episodes of Friendship of magic I have ever seen, and whilst I do still believe that The perfect pare is still the best episode of the season, as it is still my absolute favourite episode of the series, but this is a very close second for me personally. So what more can I say? If you haven’t already, give this perfectly imperfect episode a watch.

 10/10!

Adelaide ist die Hauptstadt des Bundesstaates South Australia in Australien.

Die Große Australische Bucht ist eine große Bucht an den zentralen und westlichen Teilen der Südküste Australiens.

Der Coffin-Bay-Nationalpark ist ein 310 km² großer Nationalpark im Süden der zum Bundesstaat South Australia gehörenden Eyre-Halbinsel Australiens. Der Parkeingang befindet sich nahe dem Ort Coffin Bay, 50 Kilometer westlich von Port Lincolnund circa 300 Kilometer Luftlinie westlich von Adelaide. Der 1982 gegründete Park schützt ein „repräsentatives Beispiel einer facettenreichen Küstenlandschaft, deren Vielfalt von hohen, windgepeitschten Klippen über riesige Dünen bis hin zu Stränden mit tosendem Wellengang oder geschützten Sandbuchten reicht.“

Europäer fuhren erstmals in den Gewässern der Großen Australischen Bucht im Jahr 1627, als der holländische Seefahrer François Thijssen mit Pieter Nuyts, der die Gegend erstmals kartographierte, von Westen in die Bucht einfuhr. Erstmals sorgfältig kartographiert wurde sie 1802 durch den englischen Kapitän Matthew Flinders, als er den australischen Kontinent umsegelte. Eine Expedition an Land gelang Edward John Eyre.

Die Bucht gehört zum Indischen Ozean. Laut der Definition des Internationalen Hydrographischen Bureaus liegt die Bucht zwischen West Cape Howe in Western Australia und South West Cape in Tasmanien. Oft wird mit Große Australische Bucht aber nur das Gebiet zwischen Cape Pasley in Western Australia und Cape Carnot auf der Eyre-Halbinsel in South Australia verstanden. Auch diese beiden Punkte liegen noch 1.160 km voneinander entfernt.

Während der Wintermonate ist die Große Australische Bucht sehr stürmisch. In der Großen Australischen Bucht treffen kalte und warme Strömungen aufeinander. Die Wellen gehören zu den höchsten und beständigsten weltweit. Der Schelf ist an gewissen Stellen mehr als 200 km breit. In die Große Australische Bucht fließt nur wenig Süßwasser, da in den Gebieten rund um die Bucht nur sehr wenig Regen fällt und Regenwasser meist nicht das Meer erreicht.

Die Küste der Großen Australischen Bucht ist geprägt von hohen Klippen, die Höhen bis zu 60 m erreichen, und Stränden. Weite Teile der Küste sind unbewohnt, insbesondere im Gebiet der Nullarborebene. Einzig die Ränder der Wüste ab der Eyre-Halbinsel und im Westen ab Esperance sind dünn besiedelt. Wichtige Orte im engeren Raum der Großen Australischen Bucht sind die Fischerei-Stadt Port Lincoln an der südlichen Spitze der Eyre-Halbinsel, Ceduna an deren westlichem Ende und das kleine Eucla an der Grenze zwischen Western und South Australia. Im größeren Einzugsbereich der Bucht sind vor allem die südaustralischen Städte Port Augusta im Spencer Gulf sowie Adelaide mit Metropolregion am Gulf St. Vincent zu erwähnen. Ganz im Westen kann man gemäß der weiteren Definition auch die Kleinstädte Albany und Esperance hinzuzählen.

Adelaide ist eine Küstenstadt am Saint-Vincent-Golf und wurde vom ersten Gouverneur des Staates, Captain John Hindmarsh (1785–1860), 1837 nach der britischen Königin Adelaide (Adelheid von Sachsen-Meiningen) benannt. Adelaide ging im Gegensatz zu Städten wie Sydney oder Hobart nicht aus einer Sträflingskolonie hervor.

Die Stadt trägt wegen ihrer Kulturveranstaltungen den Beinamen „festival city“, so etwa das Glenelg Jazz Festival oder das Adelaide Festival of Arts. Ebenso wird Adelaide „city of churches“ (Stadt der Kirchen) genannt. Adelaide ist Austragungsort mehrerer sportlicher Veranstaltungen, so z. B. von 1985 bis 1995 des Großen Preises von Australien der Formel 1 auf dem Adelaide Street Circuit.

Die Stadt Adelaide besteht eigentlich nur aus dem Stadtkern innerhalb des Parkrings, unterteilt in Adelaide und North Adelaide. Sie hat 17.500 Einwohner. Man rechnet jedoch die direkt umliegenden etwa 250 Orte zum städtischen Bereich hinzu.

Die Nullarbor-Wüste nimmt einen Großteil der Küste ein.

Die Nullarbor-Ebene, auch als  Nullarbor-Wüste bezeichnet (von lat. nulla arbor‚ kein Baum‘), ist eine flache, weit ausgedehnte Karst­wüste im südlichen Australien direkt an der Großen Australischen Bucht. Sie ist mit rund 200.000 Quadratkilometern das größte Stück Kalkstein der Welt. Sie misst über 1.200 km in Ost-West-Richtung.

Große Australische Bucht

Die Abgeschiedenheit und die verschiedenen Strömungen ließen im Schelf eine reiche Artenvielfalt entstehen, die stellenweise auch als Nationalparks geschützt ist. Oft sind es kleine Tiere wie Mollusken, Seesterne, Seeigel, Seepferdchen, Quallen, Seegurken und Seescheiden, aber auch viele Algen und Seegräser, die oft nur im einzigartigen Ökosystem der Bucht vorkommen. Zu den größeren Tierarten, die die Bucht bevölkern, zählen Haifische, Zwergpinguine, Glattwale und andere Meeressäuger. Südkaper kalben in der Bucht und ziehen die Kälber hier auf. Das Gebiet wurde durch die Fischindustrie ausgebeutet. Vor allem Thunfisch wurde viel gefischt.

Zahlreiche Küstenabschnitte sind Nationalparks und Meeresschutzgebiete, unter denen der Far West Coast Marine Park (South Australia) und das von der Bundesregierung verwaltete Great Australian Bight Commonwealth Marine Reserve (sie umfassen mitunter den ehemaligen Great Australian Bight Marine Park), das Western Eyre Commonwealth Marine Reserve (Bundesregierung), das Twilight Commonwealth Marine Reserve(Bundesregierung), der Nullarbor-Nationalpark (South Australia), der Nuyts-Archipelago-Conservation-Park (South Australia), der Nuyts Reef Conservation Park (South Australia), die Investigator Group Wilderness Protection Area(South Australia), der Coffin-Bay-Nationalpark (South Australia), der Whidbey Isles Conservation Park (South Australia), das Nuytsland Nature Reserve (South Australia), der Cape-Arid-Nationalpark (Western Australia), der Eucla-Nationalpark (Western Australia) und das Recherche Archipelago Nature Reserve.

Coffin-Bay-Nationalpark

Der Park ist Heimat vieler Seevögel, unter anderem Weißbauchseeadler und Fischadler sowie verschiedene Arten von Albatrossen und Sturmvögeln. Außerdem leben dort Westliche Graue Riesenkängurus, Emus und Goannas. Bis Februar 2004 fanden sich dort zudem Wildpferde, die sogenannten Coffin Bay Ponies, die jedoch in ein Gebiet außerhalb des Nationalparks umgesiedelt wurden. Die den Nationalpark umgebenden Gewässer, in denen unter anderem Delfine und Wale (Südkaper) leben, sind durch den Thorny Passage Marine Park geschützt.

Omg so I went to Daiso today and spotted these knock-off “My Pony” stickers and look how cheekily close to the original designs they are hahhaha. The main differences are some colour and cutie mark changes... Except for Spike- his ear fins have become wings... ? Such a cute art style though! Sadly no Applejack :(
