Set six years after season 6, Occupied Equestria presents an alternative history where the Changelings have conquered half of Equestria, while a former Equestrian colony - soured to Princess Twilight's notion of harmony with all creatures because of their encounters with griffins - Invaded and took the other half. In Baltimare and the Equestrian Southeast, the magic of friendship has weakened, as Communists, Changeling infiltrators, Fascists, gangs, and corrupt creepy politicians threaten the city. This role play is based in large part upon the Equestria at War mod for Hearts of Iron 4, and uses D&d 3.5e mechanics.
The long train ride to Bales is over, with Brie, Onyx, and Spark reaching their destination a little bruised but not dead or arrested. Before them lies a new and unfamiliar city and world, at the crossroads of Equestria's past and present, and also the Changeling Occupied Zone and East Equestria. In Baltimare, Dark Star prepares to set out on a mission to track down and arrest unfaithful and unreliable local law enforcement that have been leaking information to rebel forces. Silver may finally have a new toy he can use to clear the Catacombs of their undead presence. Iron, meanwhile, has drifted further into an temple in his search for a treasure sough by an archaeological expedition that was ambushed by bandits.

>>102363"i know you are reporting to somepony else. other than the Baltimare PD."
>>102364She narrows her eyes, and moves her head away in part
"Who do you mean?"
>>102365"Playing Coy Again i see. you know exactly what i mean."
>>102368Her eyes start to glow slightly blue, causing her yellow irises to take on sort of a green coloration. Her face twists to an expression of irritation.
“Listen. I don’t know what deals you and he made, but I have nothing to do with it. I am a Baltimare PD officer. Let me go. Already you are threatening an officer, and interfering with official duties.”
>>102369"Yea i Don't Believe that.So How's Chrysalis?"
Dark Star Grips His shotgun tighter
[1d20+2 = 22]>>102370She pulls a hoof down on her vest
“Hail Chrysalis!”
Roll initiative
[1d20+5 = 21]>>102372She pulls her pistol effortlessly, while Dark Star’s gun gets caught on a leather strap
[2d6 = 9]>>102374Looks like Dark Star gets hit
[1d20 = 14]>>102372With that difference in initiative, I think she gets two shots
>>102379Hit.
I think Dark Star gets +2 damage for favored enemy
[2d10+2 = 10]>>102379>>102380Actually, if it's a shotgun, I'll roll damage
[1d20 = 20]>>102381>>102379Blood, red at first, but then a bluish color comes forth.
It's not enough...
She shoots back
>>102382>>102383>>102384>>102385The shot hits Dark Star squarely, but seems to go straight through his barrel to the otherside, somehow doing less damage than the last two hits
Somehow, Dark Star still has like 2 HP left
[1d20+5 = 19]>>102386Dark Star Fires his other shotgun barrel at her
>>102388>>102387The shot damned near blows her barrel open, and she falls inwards to the ground. In a flash of green light, she shows a black insect-like creature, with big blue eyes, light blue matted mane, blue dragonfly like wings, a blue carapace, a light blue translucent tail, black chitin, and those ubiquitous holes in her mane, her legs, and her wings you could run a pencil through. Her muzzle is narrow and scrunched and she has the fangs of a vampire. You get more than a little look at her insides, which now is scattered across the floor as if somepony dropped a melted quart of Blue Bubblegum ice cream
Dark Star collapses next to her, As He Groans in Severe Pain. he takes off his jacket and wraps it around his bullet wounds tightly. he then looks through her pockets.
>>102390The front door is kicked in, and Skies burst in, aiming her pistol
>>102392Skies looks over, sees Dark Star bleeding upon the ground, sees the changeling, and rushes over
"You're hurt!"
>>102393Dark Star Coughs up some Blood
"I.. Killed her...sorry i know i should have wounded it...so we could get info."
>>102394"That's okay... They are hard to take alive... We need to get you out of here"
>>102395He Tries to stand
his knees wobble like a new born's
>>102396Skies places a foreleg under his, and helps Dark Star up
"Let me get you to the vehicle"
She takes him to what must be the police car the two ponies rode in on. The earth pony is in the back, in cuffs. He looks sort of scraggly, now that you think about it.
Skies helps him into the passenger seat
"The hell happened back there?"
"Not a word out of you"
Skies takes the radio, and turns a knob
"We had a shooting. Deputy was critically wounded. Attacker was killed on the spot."
Skies then takes a camera, and leaves the car for a moment
"She's dead?"
[Read more] >>102397"What happened? I told her i knew who she was working for this made her eyes turn green, i asked how the queen was then she shot me in the barrel...3 times. I'm pretty sure she is,blue blood covered the room like a griffon covers its gold." He Chuckles "After her thorax was blown open."
He coughs up more blood
>>102398Skies pets the injuries pony, but leaves Dark Star in the car after she is able to get Dark Star to sit up and hold his wounds.
She is gone for a minute, but returns to the driver’s seat.
*pets the injured pony*
“Let’s get you to a hospital”
>>102399He Rubs his head against her hoof as shw pets him
"Wait..did you search it's body? It might have had some information on it."
>>102400“Uh... be right back”
She leaves, for perhaps two minutes, then returns
>>102401Dark star rests his head against the head rest and closes his eyes.
>>102402*pets*
“Poor Star... You’re lucky to be alive.”
She then smiles at Star with her mischievous grin as she pets the top of his mane
“You’re a hell of a lot more intact than that succubus-worker back there. She’s strewn across the floor.”
>>102403"Just Doing my Job Ma'am"
He smiles weakly
>>102400>>102402>>102405Three ID changes within an hour. Spooky.
It had been a while since we had a disguised Changeling unmasked. In fact, there had only been one disguised Changeling - Marecuse - revealed as a Changeling, and only upon death
>>102408Makes sense. I imagine most changelings try to avoid dropping their disguise.
>>102410Would that be the changeling equivalent of a nudist colony?
