Ambergriff wonders her way through the bog at night, looking for safety. Silver leads a heroic assault on the infiltrators before they can destroy the city. Both will have to wake soon...
Hopefully Spark's line will continue soon as well.

The waffle produces a streak of syrup along the plate. The orange juice is fine, more or less. To Dark Star's left, he sees the familiar azure white mare, with a black jacket that's overly large, walk past. She turns though, and looks back to Dark Star, then pulls out a chair and sits across from him. She still looks uncertain.

She smiles at Dark Star, takes a cup of tea, and nibbles on a bit of pineapple.
Waffles are always good.

"Thanks, Darkie."

Well, I would really like to fight something. I'm painfully low-level, and I want to learn to raise the dead asap so I don't have to be embarrassed by awkward conversations in front of other necromancers.
If a bunch of necromancers were slain in a crackdown a week ago, their research/equipment might still be sitting in a vault somewhere. I think I'd like to raid/infiltrate a police vault and help myself to some contraband.
If not that, visiting the lairs of said mages would be interesting, to look for leftovers. Maybe I could visit the still living mages and build up contacts.
Also, I backread some of the old threads, and I read the party already investigated some necromancer's lair before. If you still have the maps to that place, I think it would be cool to check it out if there's anything left to see there.
If that fails, I would like to see if I could requisition a job as a freelance Necrologist and maybe make some shekels doing actual legitimate work.
Whatever it is, I want a challenge/encounter. I'm eager to flex my powers and level up.

Looking at my options, it's feasible for me to gain Animate Dead as a lvl 2 spell with my Apprentice feat, although I would have to give up one of my Dread Necromancer spells if I also want Desecrate... I think it's worth it:; I don't know if I have the patience to wait until lvl 8 to raise the dead.

Weekend plans?

That's super cute
I'm sorry, I'll be a little less available and responsive than normal over the next two weeks, although a session may still be possible
You can talk about directions at least

>talk about directions
I want to investigate the lairs and potentially collect the bodies of all of the other necromancers that were slain in the recent purge.
I also want to investigate their histories and capabilities, possibly appraising what level thru might be.
And based on their total level, calculate their value based on Neogi slave prices and CR treasure value, butcher their bodies, stitch them into a horrific frankenstein turducken amalgam, and ritualistically roast after soaking it in wine to summon a titanic demon to launch an assault on the office that carried out the purge, so that we can take revenge while also distracting them so we can steal back any confiscated equipment.
That's just an idea though.
Alive, if this zebra Sorceress was capable of animating the dead, she could be worth between 4800 and 6400 gp (minimum 1600) on the Neogi slave market. If she's in good condition, her corpse could be worth at least a third of that in terms of ceremonial/intrinsic gp value, at least according to certain sources, which would make her 1/3 of enough of a meal for Dalmosh. That's relevant if your cool with an absurdly chaotic shitpost in your setting though, which I kind of doubt.
"Say... Your wine cellar... How much would you say your collection is worth?"
That's just a shitpost idea I had though. I would still like to investigate the lairs of other necromancers and talk with NPCs, or just go looking for undead to control or a faction I can fight for my mission.
I would also like to finish the conversation with Licorice Lament, so I can see what his powers are and what the League has been doing in Equestria so far. Maybe he might have a quest for me.
I took your words on my character sheet into consideration, and I decided that I could probably cut both Cerebrosis and Mother Cyst feats.
I also realized that through bloodline rules I could technically qualify for leadership at ECL 3, and since you said you were more comfortable with NPC characters than an expanded spell list I could get to work on my cohorts.
Caligo would be a Diplomacy/Bluff based Nightstalker. I thought it would be cool to make him a lawyer or a barrister that could assist with social skills in the city.
Thresher will be a Crusader. His job is mostly just to kill things, especially any meddling paladins or clerics that might get in the way of the Black Crusade.
Since they'd be cohorts, I would know exactly what level to make them and get to work right away.

I fucked up that calculation, but the necromancer turducken idea might work with more dead necromancers. Her body alone could be worth 1133-3,400 gp in spell component and/or ceremonial value based on treasure value though, considering a lvl 8 Sorceress is CR 8. As a living slave, she would have been worth ~48,00-6,400 gp (8^2) × 100 gp, doubled for exotic race, tripled for rare skills, possibly quadrupled based on extraneous variables (being a necromancer, voodoo faith, etc). If she were especially beautiful, she her corpse could be worth even more for the right buyer, but I think I'm the only pony who would be interested in buying her while dead.

"And so, my mellow Lord Of Lamentation, what might your association with the League be? I'm as interested with the old worlders as you are of Mageholders." Posie inquires, looking the mage up and down as he sips his wine, which doesn't appear to have turned to ash and piss in his mouth
"You don't appear to be quite dead yet... Unless you're particularly good at hiding it. My vampiric heritage makes me one of the more fortunate ones among the Necropolis, but it still has quite the upkeep upkeep." Posie says, fluffing her gorgeous mane and abundant snowy chest floof
"I've heard that being alive had its benefits for blood magic, benefits that are the envy of even the mightiest liches, although, I didn't quite get the privilege to explore them while I was alive..." Rosie continues, gritting her teeth somewhat
"To take such great risks as to stay in touch with Magehold under these conditions, I would suppose that you are greatly committed to the arts. What would you say your specialty is?"

That's fair.
Although, as a necromancer, acquiring creatures/corpses is going to be a thing I might want to do, and I would like a price formula to know if I'll be trying to find them using Wanderer's Diplomacy.

A feat, particularly the Canny Merchant feature of it:
>Canny Merchant: You can make a Diplomacy check to track down an item that is normally too expensive to be purchased in the town or settlement where you are currently located. The DC of this check is 10 + (the item's gp cost minus the community's gp limit, divided by 1,000). If this check succeeds, you learn of a merchant who can supply the item to you. You must still purchase it as normal.
https://dnd.arkalseif.info/feats/players-handbook-ii--80/wanderers-diplomacy--3087/
Baltimare looks like a metropolis-sized settlement, but the things that Posie would want to buy are likely to be illegal or otherwise hard to find, so I decided to make my cohort a mercantile type to make resources easier to track down.

Oh yes, but characters have to be in proximity of each other which might be inconvenient. If two or more players are active the DM might be able to make anything work.

I am not very good at these sorts of games, so I tend to lose what little characterization I think up. I tried to be a more eccentric character that had a shot glass he took everywhere he went and insisted it was important. I ended up forgetting about that after a while.
Then I sort of got separated from every single other character by accident and now I am fighting alongside wolf tribals against changelings.

I have been around a long time, but I haven't played all that much. I never catch the GM at a good time. Still, it is a fun time. I am still looking forward to seeing how the religious wolf storyline plays out. They have religious stories and prophecies that seem to both be true and coincidental.

I don't need sleep, but I considered specking into oneiromancy anyway, just for dream sequences. Equestria has a dream realm, so dream magic might be fun.

Just to explain my absence, I'm still out on vacation right now. I'm thinking of things for Posie and friends to do
I don't think I want to make my cohorts this early in the game... Managing one character is hard enough, and I haven't had even one encounter yet. I'd rather wait until I get to level six like normal.
Soon.
Maybe Saturday or Sunday

I still don't have a complete character sheet, but I'm interested in seeing how the plot will develop.
