The Baltimare group proceeds in their task of investigating a strange group of creatures, mostly Griffins, who seem to be involved in creature smuggling. Up on the Boulderfield,-Whinnysota line, the northern group settles in for a cold night along with their new friends and prisoners.

[1d20-1 = -16]>>115223I suppose Search would be prudent.
>>115224In the water, he feels an object under the water with his hoof. It’s a brooch, or other decorative object of female jewelry, that is rather large and includes tarnished and corroded metal portions. It must have been relatively nice some time ago, but now it is corroded and faded. It’s kind of dense, and though of an oblong shape, it should be fit for throwing
[1d20+9 = 10]>>115225"Yes, this will work." Silver aims for the (presumably) metal staircase, and throws the brooch at it.
>>115226>>115228Prior to throwing the brooch, both creatures had been distracted, thoroughly, by their workings with the cell. But when silver tosses the brooch upwards, it goes high, hits the top of the doorway, bounces down, clings against the top step (which, like everything else in this structure is made of stone or brick), then against a step two down, then the bottom step, then a “plop” as it hits the water. Both creatures look back
[1d20+5 = 12]>>115229Dark Star looses the arrow at the guard closest to the door
>>115231The armor hits against what seems to be a vest worn by the creature, but fails to penetrate
>>115233Silver whispers to Starry boi: "If they are coming, then let us trade places."
>>115235"Sounds good."
Dark Star moves to here silver is.
>>115236And Silver likewise moves to where Dark Star was.
>>115235>>115233It is at this point, and maybe only at this point, that Silver and Dark Star get a good look at the two creatures
They are four legged creatures that look more or less like dogs, or wolves, if perhaps with slightly shorter muzzles and weaker muscles around the thighs, but with great arched backs full of muscles on the fore legs. Their coats are brown, a darker shade of brown than the beige stone and mortar walls, with spots of blacks just a little bigger than silver dollars coloring their bodies. Along their spines are short sets of black hair proceeding from their top, sort of like a mane, but neither does it stand out that much from their fur. They both wear simple vests and have spear-like weapons attached to their backs, and they keep their hateful, black tipped muzzles closer to the ground. Their orange eyes are fixed on the doorway now
\r
>>115238"...Those are not griffons..."
>>115239"......I...No they aren't."
>>115240>>115239One peers on into the doorway like a dog on the hunt, but the other one slowly develops a malign grin on his face. It's an expression that has an air of familiarity to it, but even as the creature appears less alien, the menace doesn't quite dissipate. Then, it speaks with a bit of an unidentifiable accent, and a voice similar to, yet deeper than that of a Diamond Dog
"Who" raising the pitch of the "oo" at the end there
"are you?"
>>115240>>115241Silver looks back to Dark Star for some sense of what they should do.
[1d20+8 = 24]>>115242"I Figure we're the Dog Catchers."
He makes >Face related. at the Lycan beasts.
"And who might you be?"
Intimidate
>>115243>>115242The one looks back to the other, then back to the doorway. She responds, in a subtlety frightened tone
"We're with the transcontinentals"
>>115246"What that thing ya got over there in your cell?"
He motions to the kirin in the cage
>>115247"Are you looking to buy?" she asks back
>>115249She nods once, and the grin returns. Her ears are rounded, and there is a ring through the right of the pair. The other one moves over, slightly.
She taps a bar on the fairly open cage, like a holding cell in a police station, and the kirin stands up and moves away. She looks frightened, though she did already.
"I don't really know. Why don't you step into the light?"
[1d20+8 = 21]>>115250>>115242Dark Star motions at silver to get ready
"Why don't you and your friend open the cell, let that thing out then you both get in the cage."
Intimidate
>>115251Silver nods once at him in acknowledgment.
>>115251>>115252Both are taken aback, and shaken. They step a step back, but neither do they act
>>115253Silver takes a step forward into the light, unsheathing his greatsword. He readies it at the dogs, the large blade making a distinct sound as it cuts through the air. "I would advise you do as he says."
>>115254They begrudgingly move back towards the cage, and unlock the hinge, slowly starting to open the door
>>115255He says to the kirin
"Get out of there,you're free now."
>>115255>>115256Silver keeps his sword levelled at the dogs. "Do not leave building just yet, kirin." A jerking motion with his head behind him informs the kirin to get behind the two ponies and stay there.
>>115256The kirin is silent, but stays towards the back. Then the doors open, She remains there, frightened, unsure. Now either she doesn't understand Silver, or she didn't want to follow him, but she
bolts out of that door, flinging it open, running down the open ground, and right towards Silver and Dark Star
[1d20+3 = 12]>>115258Sense Motive: Silver watches the kirin's intent.
Hmm...is she trying to escape past us, or will she follow order? [1d20+8 = 9]>>115258Dark Star Says to the lycans
"it's time time get into your jail cell, or things could get very bad for you 2."
"Oh and to make sure there's no hijinks going on, Give us the keys."
Intimidate.
>>115260I think we might have to roll initiative.
>>115260>>115259Well....it's time to massacre some lycans before they do it to us.
>>115262i hope they weren't important npc's....
>>115260>>115259She's startled now. But more to the point, she's about to make physical contact with Silver. Might need roll strength or reflex to avoid getting trampled by the creature
But ahead of them, the two dog bear cat things' round little ears shoot up. Then their eyes narrow, and their black tipped muzzles come closer to the ground, revealing a dense row of sharp, yellowed teeth. She giggles in a sharp, high pitched but short laugh
"He he he he"
Then he laughs in kind
"he he he he"
And like a contagion it comes back to her in a mad sort of way
"he he he he"
Their eyes slightly reflex the obnoxiously yellow light of the incandescent bulb tied to the ceiling, making their orange eyes look as if they are holding yellow flames
She says to him in a voice as masculine as feminine
"I don't think I will"
[1d20+2 = 17]>>115265Strength: Silver tries to catch the kirin.
>>115266Silver extends a hoof, and quickly the creature runs into him. Her body is small, and feels like a cross between a fur covered horse and a pangolin. Her eyes light up in obvious surprise, but she remains silent. She is in his hooves now
[1d20+5 = 17]>>115265"I Don't Think you understand, this is your only choice, if you don't want to end up in tartarus. Help me, Help you."
She can hear the sincerity in his voice.
Diplomacy
>>115267For what little time they have left until combat starts, he keeps a hold of the surprisingly soft dragon-horse and tries to calm her down. He rubs her scaly back. "It is okay, it is okay, I got you."
>>115268"Step into the light" she demands
>>115268The wide eyed expression on the kirin's face suggests that she misinterprets Silver's intent rubbing his hoof down her back
Unless she correctly surmises his intent, in which case, carry on >>115270The look on Silver's own face goes from confused to embarassed pretty quickly. "Oh...sorry, I do not mean...'that'." He tries to smooth things over with a friendly smile. "You speak ponish?"
>>115270Dark Star Does So with a grin on his face
"Well? am i what you were expecting?"
>>115271She smiles back at him, awkwardly
“Little”
>>115273A grin forms in her face, while the companion, with less regard for politesse, licks his lips
“One of the local gangs, I take it?”
>>115275Silver continues his friendly look. "Good. What is your name, might I ask?"
[1d20+8 = 10]>>115275He chuckles
"You Could Say that."
His voice turns serious
"Now be good doggies and get in the cage."
Intimidate
[1d20+2 = 8][1d20+1 = 3]>>115276She hesitates for more than a moment. Then she says something that sounds like “Khoi Lua”
>>115277>>115279Roll initiative
[1d20+4 = 23]>>115280Silver sees the incoming battle, and looks to the kirin. "Pleasure to meet you. I am Silver. Now, Khoi, stay behind us, and out of fight. I would like to talk with you bit more after we deal with these two."
With that, he releases the small, surprisingly soft kirin, his face going hard as he readies his sword against the doggos.
>>115281>>115282Well, it looks like the order is:
Sereby
Zekker
Female weird dog thing
Male weird dog thing
[1d20+5 = 11]>>115283Charge, Power Attack: Silver opens with with a powerful charge against the female dog with intent to impale her on his greatsword.
>>115284A bit of surprise in her eyes, but she jumps over to the side, dodging Silver’s attack
[1d20+5 = 21]>>115285Dark Star looses an arrow at the fem doge
[1d20+5 = 11]>>115287>>115286The shot lands in the creature’s shoulder. But she quickly launches at Silver with her spear
[1d20+4 = 19]>>115289>>115284>>115288Even now, Silver manages to dodge
The male dog creature charges forward, straight at Zekker, and stabs at him with his spear
[1d8+2 = 3]>>115288Zekker is hit in his barrel
[1d20+3 = 13]>>115292"Zekker!"
Power Attack: Silver brings his sword around and over his head, then strikes with an overhead aimed at the female.
>>115294She sees this, tries to move out of the way, then her vest takes a glancing blow from Silver Sword’s sword which fails to penetrate it
[1d20+5 = 18]>>115295Dark Star takes a five foot step
And fires into the male with his bow
[1d250+5 = 117]>>115294She pulls back, pushes forward, and angrily stabs at Silver again with her spear
[1d20+5 = 9]>>115298>>115299>>115298>>115294She charges forward, but her spear becomes lodged between the bars of a holding cell on the opposing side
>>115296>>115297>>115296The creature is hit squarely through his vest, and a pinkish zap of magic can be seen, by that doesn’t stop it. He presses forth yet again with his spear
[1d20+8 = 13]>>115298>>115299>>115300I like how even with a 1d250, she still rolled a 7.Also, just going to assume that was a miss on the male's part, so...This isn't working...alright, сука, let us see if this works against you.Silver switches to a broad sweeping attack, with less power but more focus behind it.
>>115302Again, Silver swipes. Again, she moves just enough for her vest to take and deflect a glancing blow
>>115296Star’s turn
[1d20+5 = 12]>>115303Dark star shoots an arrow at the female's head
>>115303>>115304I think GM is sleep, so I'm gonna hit the hay. Good night!
>>115306You manage to get some proper sleep, buddy?
[1d20+5 = 23]>>115304From the corner of her periphery, she sees the readied bow, ducks and moves. The arrow is let fly, glances against her vest, scratching it, then continues onward deflected a few degrees until it lands and settles into the door
>>115302She is left without a spear, and a hint of the unfavorable situation reflects in her eyes. But she is not wholly discouraged, as her grin becomes toothier, wider, then reveals a full set of sharp canines, and a jaw built to crush bone. She opens her mouth, lunges forward, and tries to bite into Silver
[1d6+2 = 4]>>115309>>115302She bites down into Silver’s back, and Silver feels a bite that is stronger than any simple wolves’
>>115177I don't get your response.
But anyway, come off as agressive. I just wanted to give you my input.
Anyway, do you have an idea for solving this problem with my character?
>>115311*I didn't want to* come off as agressive
[1d20+4 = 14]>>115304Although Dark Star may be igniting the creature attacking him in favor of a more distant aggressor, he certainly is not ignoring him. The creature stabs again at Dark Star
[1d20+8 = 26]>>115310I know you haven't yet determined if Dark Star's taken damage, I'm just leaving this here so you know what Silver's next action is when his turn comes up."ARGH!"
Her teeth manage to pierce through Silver's armor, drawing blood as they tear into his flesh. He rears up and turns his sword around towards his attacker, stabbing at her.
[1d20+2 = 9][1d8+2 = 10]>>115315For only the second time in the battle, the larger of the two creatures is hit, and it’s a hell of a hit. It tears through her vest, into the area below her chest, and very possibly ripping her stomach, her liver, or other internal organs apart. She has a definite look of fear and pain in her eyes, as she releases her bite
>>115314 (You)
>>115306Dark Star jumps and almost dodged the spear. Almost… it lands into him
>>115315>>115304From the doorway, far behind Silver, and barely behind Dark Star, a new magenta glow fills the room. Khoi Lau has turned char and black, with purple eyes and red purple flames enveloping but not consuming her, and giving off a definite heat that Dark Star can feel.
“Lấy cái này con thú gớm ghiếc!”
She turns her hind legs the the male creature
>>115318Well, the problem with placing her in the northern group now is that her purposes and their purposes don’t and won’t entirely work together well, at least for the mission they are on now. They are also 100 miles within Changeling territory, rather than simply bear it. The Southern group suits Inferno’s temperament better, and I have a more immediate idea about how to use an NPC “handler” for her. But they are something like 700 miles away from the Changeling border and frankly are more likely to fight Ponies than changelings. However, if she’s been recently transferred from Griffonia, Baltimare is not an unlikely place for her to arrive
>>115319>>115306Khoi’s magenta glow display is impressive, but her hind legs miss their mark, with the creature flinching at the purple and red fire streaming out of split hooves
The damage to Dark Star is as bad as it could have been. He’s stabbed right through deep into the chest
Taking another 10 HP damage\r
[1d20+8 = 10]>>115322I need to finish this before Dark Star is dog kibble!"I am going to turn you into dog shishkabab!" With some proper distance between him and his opponent, Silver tries once again to impale the female hyena.
>>115320>The Southern group suits Inferno’s temperament better, and I have a more immediate idea about how to use an NPC “handler” for her. But they are something like 700 miles away from the Changeling border and frankly are more likely to fight Ponies than changelings. > The Southern group suits InfernoThat's fine. She can be there.
>However, if she’s been recently transferred from Griffonia, Baltimare is not an unlikely place for her to arriveI guess she is. I don't know. She is from the Canterlot university so I guess she is from canterlot? And therefore I don't know if she is >from Griffonia but yeah, that probably works.
>>115324.... You said she was impressed into military service in Griffonia by New Mareland before being transferred back
>>115323The sword goes wide of the wounded creature
>>115327>You said she was impressed into military service in Griffonia by New Mareland before being transferred backNo, I didn't. But doesn't matter. Forget that part in such a case. If we do foreget taht part, how will her story look then?
Talented mage in canterlot university. How do we get her to the others?
>>115329So where would she start? At the university in Canterlot? What does she want to do, or is trying to do?
>>115331> What does she want to do, or is trying to do?I guess she wantss to convince the black hooves to take back the rest of Equestria.
>So where would she start?If you can get her close to the group in the south so I have a higher chance of joining up with them, that would be perfect.
Hope I am not being too needy. >>115332Alright, let’s try this:
Inferno is a fairly precious student at the Canterlot School for gifted unicorns, but, rather than continue on into a graduate program at graduation, she feels drawn to do something about the Changeling menance, and joins the newly formed security forces of the Central Equestrian Autonomy. She is only there a few months before she is expelled thanks to a few “indiscretions.” She would have been punished, but a superior convinces higher ups to simply let her go. She now decides to either:
Get back to the Changeling border so she can be present at the scene directly. She joins the customs branch of the caretaker government in the hopes of being assigned to the border. Instead she’s assigned to a port city... Baltimare.
Or
She decides to try to locate Changeling infiltrators. She tries to join the internal security branch of the Blackhooves’s State Security Administration. Rather than send her to a fresh and “hot” district like Manehattan, she’s sent to a backwater as a trainee... Baltimare
>>115333I'll seen the post will get back to you.
>>115333>Inferno is a fairly precious student at the Canterlot School for gifted unicornsDoes this mean she still hass the backstory of being in captivity in changeling hive? It is okay if it doesn't work I suppose.
>She decides to try to locate Changeling infiltrators. She tries to join the internal security branch of the Blackhooves’s State Security Administration. Rather than send her to a fresh and “hot” district like Manehattan, she’s sent to a backwater as a trainee… BaltimareI will take this one.
Thanks for solving her backstory and for providing options. I will get back to you with a better character sheet until the weekend.
>>115336>captivity in the Changeling hiveYes... didn’t you say she was in captivity, escaped, became a student, then did something that got her in trouble?
>>115338Yes, that is the chain of events. Although, the trouble part isn't necessary to her character as the first parts are.
But okay, so that part is included. I just wanted to make sure there weren't any miscommunication that's all.
>>115338You happen to know how much health Dark Star has left?
>>115341Alright, I think I have enough information about your character to let her begin. Because of the scattered nature of the Southern group it might take a while to unite her with the PCs... or for that matter, to unite the PCs with the other PCs
>>115342Uh
>>115344Um... want to start now or later?
>>115347For the Northern group it's a matter of figuring which, if any NPCs they want to take along for the ride and which to leave there, then they can proceed to their destination, then if all goes well, back home
For the Southern group.... it's going to be a real struggle to figure out how to unite them back together without it being contrived
>>115306>>115308Yep, just woke up. sorry im late.
[1d20+5 = 13]>>115323"UH! Buck! You're Bucking dead fido!"
Dark Star shoots an arrow at the mutt's face.
>>115351No need to apologise, bro.
[1d20+2 = 22]>>115352Dark Star shoots at the creature, and it tries to move out of the way before releases the arrow. He moves such that an arrow otherwise pointed at his face now points towards his lightly armored chest. It hits in a lightly armored spot and sticks in... Just barely not going through, but still stopped. The arrow releases a discharge upon the top of the brown vest, which prevents the creature underneath from being shocked
Khoi remains pissed and glowing hot. She bucks at the creature again
>>115353At the far end, the heavily wounded and unarmed female looks on at Silver, and does a set of math in her head. Finding the numbers not in her favor, she runs to the door, quickly unlocks it, and begins to open it
[1d20+2 = 19]>>115354>>115352The creature may have moved out of the way to avoid being shot in the face by Dark Star. But this movement came at a price. It positioned itself perfectly to be kicked in the face with flaming, split hooves that may as well be from the devil herself
[1d20+10 = 18]>>115354You are not getting away that easily!Silver is very intent on having dog-on-a-stick. He charges the female, hopefully before she can escape and alert the whole building to their presence.
>>115356>>115355>>115354>>115352With an arrow of stunning magic in his chest, and a kick to the face with burns to his muzzle and ears, the male falls to the ground. Barely out, and in a way in better condition than the female leader, but he's out
>>115357>>115359I'm not sure what Silver is trying here, but it worked
>>115358Doggo isn't quite fucked.
But that can be changed >>115360Silver is charging the female doggo trying to down her before she can leave and alert the whole building.
Also, BRB, dinner.
[1d20+5 = 7]>>115360Dark Star Smiles as he coughs up some blood
He then turns his attention to the female dog silver is currently stabbing and shoots her.
>>115361>>115362The door at the end of the room opens slightly, and continues moving open at a slow pace. The paw of the creature reaches through the doorway as she collapses to the ground, bleeding from two massive wounds. Dying.
An arrow flies through the air
“Ôi trời!“
It hits a bar on a cage, bounces off, flies past Sipver’s rear cutting off a pair of hairs, and hits an opposite wall after going through another set of bars.
The female leader’s blood, deep red but shaded by the obnoxious yellow light, as well as the ghostly blue, red, and purple of the magic fire, is joined by the blood of the wounded Zekker and Sereby. The male too, lies upon the ground, and though he has a slightly smell of burning hair, he gives an appearance of less lethal wounds
The battle is won
[1d20+7 = 13]>>115366You do not have permission to die yet. We still have use of you.Silver moves her paw just out of the way of the door so he can close it. Then, with not a moment to lose, he gets out his medical supplies.
Heal: Silver does his best to stabilize the female with what he has and keep her from dying.
>>115366Dark Star Looks over at the Kirin
"A-Are you Ok?"
>>115367Silver does not seem to have success stemming the internal bleeding
>>115368She seems to have an excited emotional state, as she screams in a foreign language
“Lấy cái đó đi, đồ khốn! Bạn quái vật! ... Tại sao bạn lại giúp cô ấy? Cô ấy là tồi tệ nhất trong tất cả!”
Let’s just say it’s a good thing there are no barrels of gasoline, nor shelves of flammable material in a tight enclosed area
>>115369"Silver bring some rope. this dog is still alive."
He motions at the male.
>>115369>>115370Dark Star motions for kioh to calm down
[1d8+1 = 8]>>115369Damn. Did not want to have to waste my supplies on you. Hopefully this works to stop bleeding. He takes a potion of Cure Light Wounds, one of the weaker ones from the potion shop, and guides the healing substance down the dog's throat.
Noticing the combination of anger and confusion in the kirin/nirik's voice and putting two-and-two together, he looks over to her. "She has information which we need. Do not worry, Khoi, she will face justice."
>>115370He levitates over his rope, as well as the potion Iron gave him and the taver (Potion of Cure Light Wounds, +3)
>>115372>>115371*tavern
Also forgot: "Drink this. I will come take look at you after I am finished with this bitch."
>>115373"Thanks."
Dark Star chugs the potion
[1d8+3 = 11]>>115374And let's see how much you heal.
>>115375Dark Star is still pretty hurt but the hole in his chest gets significantly smaller
>>115372Before Silver gives her the potion, her body is under assault from several forces. Her stomach has been slashed open. With that, the most powerful acids possessed by any talking creature save perhaps dragons, leaks out and onto her internal organs, slowly digesting and dissolving her insides even as she is still alive. She is more likely, however, to die from drowning in her own blood as her lungs fill up from the internal bleeding. But the healing potion, expensive to buy for Silver, and soon to be dearly missed, stood this process. The bleeding stops, and the most serious wounds in the organs are sealed, even if not completely healed.
Her eyes open rappidly, looking up at first to Silver, then to the very much open door. She wasn’t expecting this second chance, but she will sure as hell take it
She gets up, stumbles a bit, and tries her best to bolt through the open door
>>115372>>115371Khoi is not persuaded
“No. What you doing? Kill her!”
>>115375>>115374With this, Dark Star is healed, completely or nearly so. If only the same could be said for Silver’s giant wound
[1d20+2 = 6]>>115377Strength: Silver tries to jump on her and tackle her to the ground.
>>115378I'm actually getting fucking
pissed off at these rolls, now.
[1d20+5 = 16]>>115377>>115378Dark Star shoots her in the ankle
[2d6 = 5]>>115378Silver jumps for her... and fails
>>115380Hit
>>115383OH FUCK OFF, DICE, YOU PIECES OF SHIT!
>>115382He rushes over and attempts to slam the door closed
>>115383>>115380And so the creature runs through the door, Silver lunges at her but falls short, and Dark Star lands a shot somewhere around her hind leg, and the purple magic stuns her and causes her to fall outside the door. Silver lunges again, with identical results
>>115385She’s a little outside of the door, so it can’t quite be closed
[1d20+2 = 14]>>115386I don't care if it kills me, I
will roll something
higher than 10 and drag the bitch inside.
[1d20 = 14]>>115387Dark Star grabs any part of her that are still inside the door and trys to drag her back in
>>115388Things are looking up for Silver. He drags the butch inside. He’s still bleeding badly though. She might have broken a rib at its base
>>115390>>115389Who exactly is bleeding?Silver looks to Dark Star as he drags the female into the jail cell. "Hurry up with tieing other dog up. I do not want this one bolting again."
>>115391Silver is bleeding
>>115389Dark Star helps Silver drag her in
>>115392Dark Star kicks her in the rib that looks broken then he Ties up the other Dog.
>>115392Ah. Well, I've failed enough rolls to last a lifetime in these past 24 hours. Gimme a minute before I fail another. Silver will live while I take a break and talk with the kirin.Silver searches the female hyena's person for any possessions, as well as the cell door key.
>>115393Think the GM is talking about Silver having the broken rib. >>115393Silver is the one with the potentially broken rib. The dog is slowly tied up. But the female is kicked
>>115394It’s almost strange, but she is nearly devoid of any kind of possessions. The most she has is a small amount of coins in a pouch, a small number of ties, a relatively large set of keys, and her vest... which is pretty well damaged.
>>115395He leaves the vest, but he does take the rest of the items. He begins talking to Khoi as he looks through both the money and the keys. "Thank you for helping my friend, even when you did not need to. You have my gratitude for saving him."
>>115396It takes her a moment, more than a moment, really, to finally cool down. Literally
“Those... bad creatures... thank you”
>>115397He nods at her, smiling. "I am glad that we could help you." He starts trying the various keys to see which one fits the cell door. "What happened to put you in this situation? It sounded like they were going to sell you off as slave."
>>115395Dark Star ties the Male dog up.
>>115401you get used to failing rolls>>115400He walks over to silver and the khoi.
What does khoi look like?
>>115402Her coat is rather a golden color, not very bright, but a little pale, and her scales are a sort of grey shaded brown. Her mane is poofy but messy, and is a cooper or brownish color
[1d20 = 1]>>115403I'll take your silence as my cue.
>>115403"Are you ok kirin? what's your name?"
>>115398Eventually, one of them fits. Khoi starts talking, and doesn't stop
"I was looking to come to Equestria because I was told the pay is better here, and there was this stallion that said that yes I could get on the boat and come over. And I did, I bought a ticket on a steamer to come over and when I got to the harbor they said that they reach their...."
>>115404Or should I stop typing?
>>115406"My name Khoi Lua"
>>115407Fair warning, I don't care what it's for, I am not making any more rolls for the rest of the day. For the past 24 hours only something like 10% of my rolls have been 10 or more, fail or no, and I'm tired of it.
Do what you wish, whether you keep typing or stop.
>>115408Should I come back later?
>>115407"It's nice to meet you, my name is Dark Star. What stallion sold you the ticket?"
>>115409I'm still going to play, especially since this is one of the rare times when all three of us are on at the same time, but fuck me, I am seriously questioning who has the worst luck between all of the players: me or Iron. I've just failed way too many rolls in such a very short, critical amount of time to want to make any more and cost everyone the mission or, worse, get someone killed like what almost happened with Dark Star.
Personally, yes, it would be very nice of you to continue to type out what Khoi was going to say if you were already typing when I made that roll, but I won't hold it against you if you decide to accept the result of that nat 1.
>>115411"... reach their quota. So I come on the ship all the way and they turn me away. They say there are too many or I didn't have my papers or something. But they turn me away and I stay there and there is this cat, and he tell me he can get me through, so I say 'okay, get me through.' And I give him my money though I do not have much, and he take me off the boat to another boat. But then they take me and they put me here. They lock me up and for what? They do not feed me much and I have to go to bathroom in bucket......... And these hyenas I see they are mean to the other ones. They bring in others, mostly cats, and they take them through here. I don't know what they do with them. Slaves, I guess"
>>115410"Some Kirin. He sold it to me at the docks"
>>115413Silver nods, this information lining up with what he already knows or believed. "Are there any others here who are also imprisoned, or are you only one?"
>>115411You think your rolls are bad, you should've seen another guy ITT once upon a time
[1d2 = 1]>>115414"Yes! Yes! They just brought some through. There were cats. I have seen pony and zebra"
>>115416"I did not ask and he did not tell me. This happen in Ngua Nam"
>>115415What, you mean Iron? Yeah, his rolls are pretty bad. He's almost drowned twice because of them.
>>115417"Alright then. I have request of you. Something to help keep these bad people from doing this to anyone else."
>>115418"That's near zebrica right?"
>>115419Three times if you count the lake
>>115419"What you need?"
>>115421I know about the bay and the lake. What's the third?"My friend and I have been asked by government to put stop to these people and their activities. It would mean lot if you would help come forward, and share what you know with government. You would be helping stop all of this and saving many others, and both me and my friend would be sure to help you become citizen, so you could live in Equestria without fear of being hunted down and sent back."
>>115423Dark Star Nods at this statement.
>>115423"I can stay? Then I will come"
Was it Iron or just Onyx who jumped off the boat? >>115425Oh, right, almost forgot about that.Silver nods, and hooves her the sack of coins he got off the hyena. "Here, I think you are more entitled to these then I am."
>>115427She takes it, inspects it, and looks at Silver
"Thank you... Thank you... Thank you"
>>115428"You are welcome. Now, what are you going to do? Come with us through building, stay here in this room? There is also Eastside Tavern where we will meet up after we are finished, if you decide you do not wish to stay here any longer."
