Occupied Equestria - Howling Night

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

Dark Star and Silver are preparing a task for the Civil Administration. Iron is drowning in a Lake. Brie has just gotten approval to speak with a Changeling agent about acting as a collaborator, and Spark is petting the weird cat things.

Or whatever is causing the blizzard will move on, and in the morning Iron and Cauldron can resume making their way through the snow-filled jungle.
I imagine snow is an almost alien concept to Iron.

I mean, he did think that the snow is a product of evil monsters instead of going 'pfft snow is super normal, no big deal' and choose to stay in the temple, where it would be most insulated. Let us not forget the whole thing that happened in there that triggered Iron to run away.
I really hope you're right, but I feel that the first time between the two of them should've been a little bit more romantic. Alas, desperation, as Pear says,
is a powerful force that can make a pony do anything.

...yes, he is. Commiting to the act has a lot more weight than normal. It's not about the quick fuck. Whom you fuck is the one to bear children. That was the rule back at the tribe.

Don't be shy about telling Silver and Star, though. Once our schedules open up, I imagine they'd be more than willing to help Iron and Cauldron out, especially since they know the approximate location of where the pots were dropped.

I think that won't be much of an issue, especially if the windigoes are taken out and the blizzard stops.
Hopefully my actions are making damage against them.

I'm afraid she may have a limited amount of options at the start, but I only need her to learn the stat boosting potions to rack up the money, especially intelligence and wisdom-based ones.

Considering health potions will probably make the majority of Silver's purchases, I don't think limited selection will be too much of an issue. Perhaps she'll make requests to members of the group to fetch her new potion recipes.

I do want Cauldron to succeed and live comfortably while also having the option to explore her hobby. I am not quite sure health potions alone is going to help with that, unless you buy a lot of them.

Fine. I believe you.
I honestly have no idea about Cauldron's expenses, as well as the price of doing expeditions like these, so I may be overinflating the number by a large margin.

I imagine the prices of potions includes both the cost of the materials needed to make them as well as a little bit extra for the potion maker's own pockets, so I wouldn't be too worried about it. It certainly seems it's very easy for Cauldron to make healing potions on the spot, though, so I wouldn't worry about what those in particular would cost her to make.

Don't forget the rent of her apartment, as well as possibly having to back up her family restaurant in times of need, bullshit taxes,
possible bullshit 'protection money' business to boost the need to take them down and possibly the rent of Cauldron's workplace, depending on how she wants to go about it.

I hope you're right, because technically Iron doesn't, either.
Although he may get the wisdom from others to help him out.
If Iron dies, I may try to start a business myself as some sort of Int based magic unicorn fellow.

Iron won't die, not yet. The dice may hate him, but they haven't completely failed him in life-or-death situations. Besides, he's got to be the stronk erf pone to lead his marefriend out of the Heart of Darkness.

True. While most of the motivation for his confession is due to possible death, he also did it for that exact purpose, to the point of dying if it means protecting her.
I also kinda want to change class because my character is quite weak within the possible realm of his character. I may make him a Fighter 1/Barbarian 4 if I can get away with it, but magic classes are sorely needed to dish out both combat and utility if the need arises.
Exclude Spark whose presence is stuck in the Brie zone where every minute there is 40 years here.

Barbarian would kinda fit Iron's character better.
If it wasn't for the fact that the next level in Fighter means Silver would get two feats, I would consider giving him a level up in a magic class. Even if level one magic classes are ultimately worthless in terms of magic abilities.

Eh. Most feats Iron got never did him any good so far. Cleave and Great Cleave? Only came into play once, so those feats are wasted. Class skills seems to pay off better in the long run.
You may have a path set out for you which involves a certain feat, so don't let my words discourage you.
Meanwhile, I'll go do the little changes to Iron before any fighting happens. Hopefully GM can accept them.

I can certainly tell you've been chatting with Ash.
I dunno. If it wasn't for the 13 Intelligence requirement, I'd go Combat Expertise and Dodge for maximum Armor Class and become that much more of the party tank. As it is, I might go for something related to ranged combat with his rifle, and...something else I haven't figured out yet.

I have, actually.
I see. I believe there is the Tome Of Great Thought, which should help you with that. However, it requires a lot of money to buy one, much more than you have right now. I suggest you look it up and see for yourself. It's a magic item.

It's the Tome of Clear Thought, and yeah, none of us are ever going to have the money for any magical artefacts, much less the 110,000 Bits Silver would need to bring his Intelligence up from 9 to 13.

Probably not. Thanks for the tip, but there's a very large list of things to buy first if we ever were to come up with that level of money. A book to increase a character's stats by a bit is pretty low in the order of priority.

It would allow you to reach the 13 Int threshold, but it's okay. Perhaps a Belt of Giant Strength may interest you.

Was I meant to keep running? To simply confess and have a lil kiss? Beat the ghosts up?
What was the planned outcome?

I don't think the GM would do something like that. He'd give plenty of clear warning before something bad happens to Iron and Cauldron. My bet is he's busy.

I hope you're right.
Because his words yesterday indicated that my actions are being quite unexpected and he doesn't know what to do currently.
Basically, I put him into a sort of 'between a rock and a hard place' situation where he either makes the porking the solution, the ice monsters break into the shelter and killing both of them or a third solution I don't know of.

See, I would agree with you, but keep in mind the snow only happened after Pear literally called the windigoes into existence by slitting the throat of a bandit and throwing him in the fire, causing the temple itself to spew out unknown evil because of it.
