>>182639I would like to count this as an assist roll, to give Silver a +2
>>182642So much for that plan. Can't win everything.
Off to the lighthouse we go.
>>182583I don't think it's a good idea but I'm outnumbered so go ahead. I'm waiting to move out.
>>182626Wouldn't communist militaries put females in combat roles more often?
>>182642>>182639Based off of the (lack) of response, it's pretty clear that the message is not immediately accepted as genuine. Is the wish to go further, or to leave it at that?
>>182640"Well, we have a red wine from... Sire's Hollow. A white wine from Coltifornia. Huh. That's rarer now. To tell you the truth, not many ponies ask for wine, but I do keep it around."
>>182644Perhaps, but they also aren't actively in a war.
>>182652Idk what we could say that we could remedy the situation. Let's go find our airmen.
>>182652>>182654Silver whispers in Posey's ear to repeat the first part of the message he gave her: Это спасательная группа, вызывающая Костромскую экспедицию, приезжайте в Кострому.
>>182655>Это спасательная группа, вызывающая Костромскую экспедицию, приезжайте в Кострому.>>182652Rosey Ring repeats the above phrase:
[1d20+16 = (9+16) = 25] >>182652"I think this might be my first time trying wine in general. that one sounds good."
>>182657"Which one? Coltifornia? Sure." He takes a moment of turning around looking for a wine glass, evidently not remembering where they are stored. He picks one up
>>182655>>182656A male voice replies
"Кто нам звонит?" He pauses for a couple seconds, an "uh" sound emanating from his throat.
"Это... Это матрос Смородиновый лист из Костромы. Мэйдэй, Мэйдэй, Мэйдэй. Мы..." Hesitating,
"Осажденные внешней силой и предателями внутри." >>182408>>182149These characters were used in passing later and I wanted the depiction to be consistentOkay, so Heather is actually the priestess herself. Both appear to be earth ponies
"Yes, here we have an associate priest, Vibrant ray working here, and often a handymare named Sauntering Lily."
>>182631The language of the bullsheviks is Severanyan. There's dozens of languages to choose from depending on theme and background applicability, and theres a surprising amount of thought put into which group gets which language
>bats didnt get polish/russianI didn't say there was justice in the world,....
For Lacey I wanted her to be highly multi-lingual, chatgpt gave me all the answers I needed for EaW (and without bothering GM [Im working on it])
>>182667>bullsheviksur silly
Take what ChatGPT tells you with a grain of salt, when Dust's player asked it for EaW information and lore it told him about a country that doesn't exist.
>>182668Yes. To that end, it is good practice to have it regularly give you a summary of what you have developed, for you to paste and remind IT when it starts getting "creative"
>>182662Krr, the potential tea tray ring out as Vir places her tea cup on it.
"Okay," she says and nods absentmindedly before moving her full attention to Heather. "I-I wish to stay here. Just- Just for a short while. While I'm looking for my sister."
The chair creaks against the wooden floor as Vir stands up. She tosses the hem of her tan cloak so flips up on her back. The cloak is actually relatively thick and the hem reveals it to consist of three different fabrics, or three different cloaks, sewn together. The inside one is of lavender color. She lifts up her hoof and flex it's biceps muscle? Or something, anyway, her hoof goes from being somewhat unassuming to mold into a mound of statue-eque thickness. But then she looks up with pleading eyes as if she's mere foal asking her mom for cute stuffed animal she saw in the store.
"I'm not good with words but I can move stuff."
>>182661Posey takes her face away from the mic
"Should I say anything else?"
>>182673>mound of statue-eque thickness."hardness" makes more sense here I think.
>>182661He looks the bottle over and then glances at the strange looking glass
"Hey you never answered my question earlier, are those two mares still up in my room or did they leave?"
>>182673Heather takes a moment to look down at the strong, presumably thin limbs of the muscular mare.
She pets the poor mare’s mane, moving her hair to make sure she doesn’t cover Vir’s eyes.
“I.. believe we have an extra bed here. There’s a room for Vibrant Ray that he doesn’t use. I suppose it can be used by a mare in need. We’ve lent it out to those in need before, after all.”
>>182685He pauses for a moment.
“I
have seen them since. I’ve seen them walking around the rooms, at least once. Twice I think. But more importantly I’ve seen them in the bar. I know the cream colored one has asked for you, but more so there was an incident. They both sat down and ordered food. Like a couple burgers and fries. When it came time to pay they both frantically searched around and didn’t have money. To me it looked like they genuinely thought they had money; I assumed that if they wanted to dine and dash they would have just left. But they said they were with you and said where you lived. They basically said to put it on your tab, which was fine since I knew they were with you and you’re a partial owner. I’m sorry, I thought they were your mistresses you were keeping here away from your marefriend. Okay well if you say that isn’t what they are then that isn’t what they are, but I figured they were… rescues? Is that how to put it? Like stray dogs you feed and they stay around. But yeah. I don’t know if they are here now. They have left at least a couple times I think.”
>>182687He laughs as Glimmering glass explains things
"yea its no problem, I brought them here to keep them safe, you know how it is out there, especially for a Drunk mare, easy pickings for some less than moral pony or"
He shudders "Some sub pony filth."
"i figured it was a good idea at the time. i still think it was the right thing to do, to be honest. We have no problems mr glass."
He glances at the stairs then around the bar
"When was the last time you saw one of them by the way?"
>>181202>>182690“Oh, well we don’t need to inquire into why every mare does what she does. Can you really say why any mare does exactly what they do, anyways? Who knows what could have motivated her. Let her have her privacy.”
>>182691“No, I haven’t seen them bring up any zebras stallions, or any stallion besides you. I saw one of them leave yesterday morning. It was the green one. She was wearing a sweater. It kind of looked like she was going to work, but I don’t know. I kind of got the impression they were homeless. One of them mentioned they were from near Cloudsdale. That’s the Changeling zone.”
>>182661>>182682Silver gives Posey her next line: Утвердительно. Пожалуйста, дайте совет по вашей текущей ситуации, Кострома.
>>182702>>182697>Утвердительно. Пожалуйста, дайте совет по вашей текущей ситуации, Кострома.Rosey Ring repeats these instructions.
I guess this is another bluff check?
[1d20+16 = (11+16) = 27]Btw, did those griffins have any spear guns?
>>182697"Good, Could you set them up with a Room maybe? i'll pay for it, Its the right thing to do if they are homeless.... wait Cloudsdale?"
>>182703“Well of course you shouldn’t gossip about mares where they can hear you. That’s just basic decency.”
>>182704They did not. Harpoons only.
>>182705“Sure. You want them out of your room? I… suppose I can make that happen. Yeah. Not Cloudsdale exactly but some city near there. I asked them where it was near and they said Cloudsdale.”
>>182707Do they respond to Posey's bluff?
>>182707"Yea it would be for the best if they get another room, I do remember her talking about cloudsdale now that i think about it."
>>182709I rly hope that the amount of time it is taking to answer isn't a bad sign,....
>>182732If we can't get anymore info, I would prefer to just go right to the light house.
>>182735We might be about to get shot!
>>182738That's okay. They'll just shoot Brie first, because he's the one in the air.
EEEEEEEEE my power is off >_<
>>182732Knowing GM pone, he's just working on a long post/reply from the sailor Current Leaf.
>>182774Yes, but you cant rule out that we're about to die
>>182704 "Да. Четыре пятых нашего числа были потеряны... Мятеж. Судно село на мель на песчаной косе в естественной гавани... Нова Гриффония? Я и несколько верных пони под командованием комиссара Черного Каблука высадились и держимся. Я оказался в ловушке в разрушенном... Каменный дом? На холме. Не доверяйте Light Water. «Легкая вода» опасна. Есть опасность. Приходите только с большой силой. Привозите компанию или больше. Вы слышали передачу комиссара Черного Каблука?" -
"Yes. Four Fifths of our number have been lost to... Mutiny. Ship has run aground on a sandbar in a natural harbor of... Nova Griffonia? I and a few loyal ponies under Commissar Black Heel have disembarked and are holding on. I am trapped in a ruined... stone house? On a hill. Do not trust Light Water. "Light Water" is dangerous. There is danger. Come only with great force. Bring a company or more. Did you hear Commissar Black Heel's broadcast?" >>182708She stops for a moment, and looks up to Amber, looking her in the eyes
"Why do you ask?"
>>182714"Alright, I can try to arrange that. May be hard to move them though. If you would like another room... Alright, I'll see if there is some way I can get them out of there."
>>182776Well, that's some useful info.
Hmmm, they seem weakened, perhaps it would only take a few pirates to finish them off...
>>182776"I could go grab my stuff out of there and they can have that one and just give me a new one."
>>182776Cavaliere waits for Silver and Posey to complete their radio broadcasts and then asks the grizzled Sevaranyan,
"What's happening at their end?"Amber looks pensive for a moment before replying,
"Decent or not, a lot of ponies like to gossip. I know my other boss and her waitresses do, especially about me and my coltfriend. I know his mother gets into gossip too and tries to share it all with me." She shakes her head.
"What should I do?" >>182776>>182777>>182780Maybe, but we can discuss this in character after the radio broadcast is finished. Silver holds up a hoof to silence Cavaliere as they're not yet finished. He gives Posey another statement to repeat: Да, мы слышали вашу передачу. Можете ли вы предоставить более подробную информацию? Координаты, местонахождение и численность сил противника, что-нибудь?
>>182776Brie cant understand but HOOREY SHIT its gonna get interesting
>>182781>Да, мы слышали вашу передачу. Можете ли вы предоставить более подробную информацию? Координаты, местонахождение и численность сил противника, что-нибудь?Posey repeats this message.
