Occupied Equestria - Into No Pony's Land
Anonymous

No.103001
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

In the North, in Bales, Brie has just aquired a carriage with which he shall make the journey into the Changeling Occupied Zone, alongt with Spark and Onyx. In Baltimare, Dark Star recouperates from injuries sustained in a near fatal encounter with a Changeling opperative. Silver helps treat two traumatized orphans, and Iron examines ancient secrets in the Jungles

Onyx thinks he's probably on some mission, and how kind it was for the others to leave him babysitting the changelings.

Iron simply rubs his temple with one hoof, a light blush from feeling like a colt.
"Look. Me and my partner are going back to the metal jungle, and I did promise I would take you back there. Now, do you want to be taken back there or are you capable of going back on your own now?"

Nodding at her rejection, the invisible weight on his soul being lifted, simply walks away towards Cauldron.
"Good luck to you too," he replies.

When reaching Cauldron, his blush is evident, but he has a small smile.

Sure thing.

GM. Even though you borrowed the setting from a mod that focuses on the dehumanization of the individual and the strength of nations, I can definitely feel this place and its individuals are alive, have motivations of their own and fears to struggle with.
I'll base this on Cauldron, since it's one of the characters that were fleshed out more than most (almost equal to Skies in a way) and it is central to my enjoyment of the game, since it drives my character to do what he does. Anyone can see Cauldron's struggles of not being able to follow their passions because of responsibilities out of their direct control. Who didn't sacrifice their own dreams just to maintain the lives of their relatives? It's a very human emotion that most go through when thinking where to go and what goals they set themselves. This is why she's so endearing to me, because I can empathize with her and want to help her out and ease the weight of the choice by granting her more options to choose. To cause such a feeling to surface for something that I can't even see or touch is quite remarkable, and shows you have ability in your craft.
Now that you've added Pear into the mix, it creates a clever twist of Iron's heart, as he sees the mare losing her innocence to what the world can really be, which upsets him in a deep way. He believes that she shouldn't suffer in this way and therefore he will try to make things better for her although his plans are cooking in order for her to regain that gait, that radiance that he sees in his mind is the perfect mare. Now he'll have to balance two hearts in order not to hurt himself with seeing one of them break down when he knows nopony else will care.
I hope with what I wrote can transmit the complex feelings you have given me through the use of your storytelling, and therefore encourage you to keep it up in order for both me, you and the others to have fun and great experiences full of emotion up ahead.

I sure hope this doesn't come out as autistic.

I'm excited about your story. I love all of your characters. And I am having a great time for my only my second experience with this type of game style. Great doesn't even come close to fully describing the job you have been doing. You have gone above and beyond to give us detailed descriptions of environments lore, politics, happenings in the world, and the mood of the story. Not to mention how unique this kind of setting and story is for a D&D campaign. You are amazing.
