In the far-off, northern island of Mended Horn, the party there has learned that they face an enemy they have dubbed "The Traveller." They have decided to go to an old, abandoned village there in hopes of rescuing some communist sailors.
In Baltimare, Dark Star tries to get things in order, while Virgin Flame looks for her old friend.

"Мы попытались убежать в северную бухту, взбежав вверх по холму, но нас настигли петрушки и эти... пожитки. Мы были прижаты к земле." - "We tried to escape to the northern bay by running up the hill, but we were caught by the Petrushkas and these... things. We were pinned down."

I have one more combat encounter planned, but this is basically a crossroads, where the party is going to have to decide where they are going to go

The stallion pulls up Vir's coat, and searches her pockets, under the coat, and generally all along Vir. it's a little invasive, but doesn't last very long.
"Alright. You can go inside."

They find in the inner pocket a photography of the full personal of Sunny Day and the foals standing besides Princess Celestia. That photo was mentioned back years ago. The filly trio is in the photo before mother Justiney. If this matters to them is up to you, if this is creating unnecessary problems we can just say she left it at the church.
If nothing happens from that, she nods, say her thanks, and enters.

Vir nods and follows his instructions; she proceeds to walk down that path.As she does this she calms herself thinking that, while she still had the same mane and fur color, it's still quite hard to piece together that she was one of the fillies in the photo since she's not a foal anymore. She also thinks that Princess Celestia probably drew most of his attention. No, she doesn't do that. It's way to complex for her. She just shakes her head and thinks that they would have learnt sooner or later anyway.

"So, we could go towards the ship, and charitably risk our lives to save the communists from the Traveller, or we could go find our marines and go home to be paid, and maybe make a recommendation that the army deal with any emergent threats from the Far Realm..." She puts a magic finger to her chin
"Do you think Captain Waters would reward us for such charity? Fighting unknowable Eldritch horrors was not in the job description. I am a working mother; I cannot be risking myself for no good reason."

"I would say our priority seems to be the airship. If it is or could be made serviceable, we have an obligation to take command of it, IF ONLY to disable this Traveler from some eldritch-apocalyptic shit. Having said, we can't leave an evil of this magnitude to operate independently even if we ARE able to get the airship off the ground. In fact," he turns and looks at some of the daisy chain. "I'd wager that whatever damage that may have grounded the airship could probably be repaired, and a couple of those ponies/griffons/petrushkas/our-bitches might have some mechanical and repair skill. How many hooves do we have now? And with an operational airahip we could fucking REST." He finished dramatically, pantomiming exhausted collapse.

Brie adds:
"And then once rested, we could better assault whatever it is, with an airship. And hopefully a squadron of marines*, but I suspect theyve been mind controlled specifically for their skills."
Brie adds:
"And then once rested, we could better assault whatever it is, with an airship. And hopefully a squadron of marines*, but I suspect theyve been mind controlled specifically for their skills."
He continues, cuz finally I have a reason to contribute/filibuster:
"Our mission is literally to ascertain/disable the airship. Im more in favor of repairing and using the airship especially for our extraction/departure, but regardless, either disabling the airship or taking it away from the traveler seems the best course of action no matter how you slice it, especially if it can grant us a reprieve."

He finishes, crossing his forehooves in a quasi-aggressive stance that SUGGESTS he is MORE interested atm in getting his goddamn nat 20 search results! Reeeee! ahead of this traveler

When Vir enters the first floor, she sees an open lobby with a pair of marble counters. In the lobby are a few ponies walking by. A pair of ponies come down a set of stairs with dark red wooden railings that are on the right side of the lobby, and in the corner, a minotaur in Tan stands with a submachine gun in strap hanging over his shoulder.
Past the two counters, on the right, under an upper floor balcony, is a hallway that goes back.
Not very far past that and on the right, is a wooden framed door with translucent glass panels under a sign that says "investigations."
Opening this, and through the door, is a small grey unicorn mare with a pink mane that is sitting oddly high in an almost kind of crouch in a chair behind a wooden counter.
"Hello." She says

Vir drags a hoof through her mane and removes her hoodie at the same time.
"Firstly, I'm searching for a statue of Princess Celestia that was beeheaded. It belongs to a Church nearby the Delamare river and I found the head on the bottom. Now, I'm looking for the body. It was probably anarchists that took the statue in the first place. You know anything?" Vir asks.

"Oh. Anarchists. Let me see." She moves over to the right, evidently by pressing against the desk and rolling the chair, and she finds a little box with a set of paper cards that she peers through with her magic.
"Anarchists, yes. We'll have a file on this. Do you know about when this was, or where? Which church was it?"

Vir claps her hooves together in genuine happiness.
"Niiice," Vir says as she leans forward. "They beheaded it. I found the head at the bottom of the river but I'm looking for the body."
She leans back again and waves a hoof in front of her dismissively.
"But anything you have could be helpful. Who the anarchist were and such, you know clues for stallions who smoke pipe." Vir sucks off a pantomime pipe in the air.

She pulls out a card, stares at it, and then looks back up to Vir.
"Yes... Um... We only have a couple notes on it. You see, it was handled by the Baltimare police, but uh, well it has notes showing it was attached to other cases of interest. Were you here during the revolt? Well if you weren't, there was a general uprising with the Anarchists kind of spearheading it. So, well, we have a lot of cases on ponies of interest. Uh, what information do you need? Would you like to speak with an investigator?"

The mare smiles back awkwardly.
And now, the door on the right? Is this the right right? Yes. It's the right right. The right on her left, and Vir's right. Anyways...
The door is wooden framed and has a single panel of translucent glass in the top. Sort of like the one that Vir went through to get into this section, except that one had two panels of glass, whereas this is a single panel on the upper half.
Knocking, and then opening the door If you think it's more in character for Vir to wait until she gets explicit permission to open the door before opening it, then this is so, she looks in to see a book shelf on the left, a big set of files in boxes on the back wall, no windows, and a file cabinet on the right.

The thick layer of mist that has for so long obscured all vision past a short distance begins to clear, as a breeze from the southern ocean - cool by Baltimare standards yet clearly warmed by the unfrozen sea - makes its way along the ridge line, and pushes the fog along and north. Should they look, the party would see much of the island that was obscured before.

Brie rises to see a small string of what were presumably houses running along a never-paved central road. beyond these three houses, and on the other side, are another two, then a much larger stone structure with a kind of " + " shape, with firm stone walls but no roof, and then another couple rectangular houses beyond this. There are besides these and to either side the low stone walls of what were likely even more houses, a dozen of them, which have long since degraded even more than the few by the central path. Though some have stones within or besides their walls, many more stones are simply missing, presumably spoliated long ago. Everywhere, dull green grass grows on what were long ago floors, indistinct from the surrounding ground. Next to these, and everywhere, are the last structures with any kind of roof - small stone huts maybe eight feet in diameter if even that, with a single open door, and a kind of conical shape. Grass grows on the roofs of more than one of these. Further away is a wide, low stone wall that may suggest the remnants of what was once a town hall, but unless the remaining stones have been carried away, a corral for sheep is more likely.
Brie sights two objects of interest. Face down, just beyond a low wall of stone that was likely once the seven foot high western wall of a family home, lies a green, pegasus pony corpse. It's blue uniform is torn and stained red. Second, inside of that larger, plus shaped structure, Brie sees a pony leaning back against the wall. It's almost not visible from the air, but Brie sees a patch of white fur

Brie sights two objects of interest. Face down, just beyond a low wall of stone that was likely once the seven foot high western wall of a family home, lies a green, pegasus pony corpse. It's blue uniform is torn and stained red. Second, inside of that larger, plus shaped structure, Brie sees a pony leaning back against the wall. It's almost not visible from the air, but Brie sees a patch of white fur

Brie will return to the ground and dismissively and not in character describe that the buildings all appear abandoned and in disarray leading in with... "I did happen to notice a corpse that we didn't cause, as well as an additional survivor, in that building over there."
Brie says, addressing everyone.

There in the center of the room, or just pushed back from the center, is a wooden desk. It's a relatively simple design - no fancy mahoghany here - and in front of it are two equally simple chairs with green fabric covering them. But behind the desk is a pony, a mare with a grey-purple, more or less lilac colored thin coat, and a deep, royal blue mane. But what is disturbing about this creature is its wings, which are not close to the body but haphazardly extend, and in the case of the right wing, even extends over the table. The wings are not covered in feathers, but are instead webbed with visible bony fingers between, and covered in a kind of purple velvet. She likewise has those tall, tufted ears that twitch when Vir enters the room. Vir has heard of these things before, even if she has not likely seen one this close - the dreaded bat ponies whom Celestia, in her sole unwise act, extended her mercy and allowed to live.
The mare is crouched over the desk, carefully examining some kind of photograph, which itself is over top of several papers. A stack of files is on each edge of the desk, and Vir may have a subconscious fear that the bat creature thing will knock it off with her wing. What is perhaps most strange is that the creature does not look up when it clearly must have noticed Vir entered the room, but instead continues looking at the photograph.

The royal purple stallion looks up towards Silver with his own grey eyes, which slowly shake in place. He pulls his lips back, showing off somewhat yellowed teeth.
"Кто хотел бы знать?"
>>185572
Just.... what?
Like I can completely believe that Posey can communicate very basic ideas to the sailors non-verbally, like standing over them in a threatening manner, or half lidding her eyes, turning her butt to them, and raising her tail. And there's probably quite a few other things that could be communicated. But communicating "where is a ship?" Through dance? Just... what? I'm confused.

Going inside of the old stone structure, which must have been a church in some long-passed era, holes in the wall that once allowed for windows remain, even as one of the window holes has collapsed in on itself.
There, next to one wall, is a white unicorn stallion with a yellow mane in a white coat with a foil hat next to it, a revolver near it, and a black brief case. Judging from blood from the unicorn's head, it appears dead.

Silver: "Меня зовут Серебряный Меч." He looks at the royal purple stallion, meeting his grey eyes with his own blue ones. He smiles. "Нам нужно быть честными друг с другом, если мы собираемся выжить. Я расскажу вам о себе и моих товарищах, если вы будете честны в этой ситуации, хорошо?"
Actually, now that he thinks about it, could the officer they captured be the Commissar? At least, I think he was among those captured.
I also feel like Kira has been a bit lacking in action recently. She scouts around, making sure the area is safe. It also means she's not around to spook the already-traumatized soldiers any further.

Does the church have an altar?
Is the unicorn handsome?
Let's check out that briefcase
Posey goes towards a church
"A desecrated church... What a romantic setting. A place of faith where followers once prayed for protection and prosperity, before they abandoned it with the rest of the village when their faith ran out. Even though the church has died, and the followers have left, the structure itself remains, still strong, still beautiful." she says, eyeing the remaining window
She looks down at the stallion
"A communist, so certain in his secular ways, likely never before considered coming to such a place for protection. Fate brought him here anyway though, for in the face of supernatural evil and otherworldly dread, he still sought refuge in the long-dead structure of the church, and faith became his fortress anyway. How romantically ironic." she says, with a calm, subtle smile
She uses her magic to raise the unicorn's chin, to get a better look at his face

Yes. Some are in Ponish. Specifically, the hoof-written notes.
"When I got on in Sirius, all of the crew was kept in quarters, and none were allowed exit. Quarantine, I was told. Some ancient virus may have been dug up in the frozen north, and though my superiors did not believe it, they could not rule it out. Subject one was listless, rocking back and forth, and complained of strange noises. We explained to him that these noises were real, but were produced by the ship. As if an experienced sailor would not know that... Whatever is happening must cause hypersensitivity to noise.
No subject tested had a fever, save for one who most likely was already infected with a cold.
Blood samples come back negative for increased white blood cell activity. There is no immune response whatsoever. That doesn't mean a virus can be ruled out."
Next note,
"I can hear it too. A constant drone and crackle. Whispers that are nonsensical, but hideously suggestive. So many sailors are desperate to leave and I understand why.
Test confirms contamination in the air. Hydrogen sulfide at low levels, but I am more concerned with what we do not have positive tests for."
Next note:
"I've seen what they have down stairs, and I have seen photos of the village. We were told it was a cult ritual. near eighty ponies drowned in a ditch. Ha! You can't have liquid water at those temperatures. Not at that time of year. The ponies were all lined up and shot, either by their own government, or by another. I'm trusting these Stalliongraders less by the day. I would have done better to have stayed in Whitebell."
Next note:
"I fell asleep for two minutes. By Celestia do I regret it. Patient Pipette and I have holed up in the forward compartment. He has realized the tin foil delays the insanity. I dare not sleep, and I know that I too, will lose my mind if I cannot get off of this ship."

It was not declared
The proposed staryu pic and ettin oic would be said to occur while I was passed the fuck out and GM was opeating Brie who had the camera.
The idea is precipitated on the notion that GM would have known to have Brie take a choice oic or two in advance of the surprise round. This has not been properly adjudicated.

Я думаю, что это в лучшем случае древний демон, а в худшем — сам черный бог. Отойдите от этого подальше и позвольте военным разобраться с этим." - "Yes. It will make you lose your mind if you are near it too long. The hats help somewhat. Do not sleep near it. I think it is an ancient demon at best, or the black god itself at worst. Get away from it, and let the military handle it."

On the camera front, Im really gonna micromanage this:
1 shot of the suicide doctor pone
1 shot of the crazy-stilts-ettin thing (cuz surprise)
1 shot of one of the starfish bitches
Would seem to be at 23/26
Or, 25/26 with the suicide picture. Either way, we have documents to very heavily reinforce the spoop that will be WELL documented (at the expense of immediate murder e,_,e) murder, so any pics not previously taken will hopefully be sufficiently validated (and maybe a bureaucrat ALSO gets stabbed)

Past a half circular bay, and up a hillside, is a large, green hill that tapers down as it comes to a tip. And around the tip, some ways above the water, is a white painted light house. It isn't incredibly tall, and Brie can't see the base, as it is partly on the other side of the hill.

When Cavaliere sees the seventh photograph, he grips it such that it is bent slightly as the edges of his mouth bend in a fierce scowl. Nevertheless, he has the presence of mind to examine the other photographs to try to notice anything familiar.
Survival: [1d20+3 = (4+3) = 7]
Knowledge (Arcana): [1d20+7 = (11+7) = 18]
Later, when talking to Silver, he says, "It's a small miracle any ponies have survived from this ship at all, but they don't look like they will last much longer if we don't act immediately. This entity has murdered eighty ponies in cold blood, and as it cannot be brought to trial we must end it ourselves. It exudes a gas with unknown effects which means we should locate masks if the ship has them. I have these photographs and documents that have some helpful information."

When Cavaliere sees the seventh photograph, he grips it such that it is bent slightly as the edges of his mouth bend in a fierce scowl. Nevertheless, he has the presence of mind to examine the other photographs to try to notice anything familiar.
Survival: [1d20+3 = (4+3) = 7]
Knowledge (Arcana): [1d20+7 = (11+7) = 18]
Later, when talking to Silver, he says, "It's a small miracle any ponies have survived from this ship at all, but they don't look like they will last much longer if we don't act immediately. This entity has murdered eighty ponies in cold blood, and as it cannot be brought to trial we must end it ourselves. It exudes a gas with unknown effects which means we should locate masks if the ship has them. I have these photographs and documents that have some helpful information."

"This lighthouse we're after,... I think I can see it," Brie calls, not seeing any immediate threats. He holds out a hoof, pointing toward it.

Posey could probably tell if they're healing potions (if a drop burns her tongue, it's a healing potion), but otherwise she has no means to identify them.

Brie lowers, to offer the potions to Posey (who he is cautious of, but wanting to avoid any unpleasantries) "I thought they might be poisons, but on examination they may be potions of some sort," he holds them out for the taking. "I havent been given any sort of description, so Moon knows what they might be."

"Im not much vested in who takes them, simply that MY only method of identification would be to taste them, and thats not a gamble I prefer to make at this time."

"In spite of appearances I'm the sort to have written out a lengthy bit about pulling out a wire from my thieves kit, cleaned/spat out the anti-rusting oil, and with precise skills, dipped the wire in one of the potions. But then I realized that this is all spoopy shit, and who knows what an as-yet undescribed potion could do. Maybe it has to do with this Traveler in some capacity. No, for the time being I'm preferring not knowing their effects, if it means avoiding needless risk," he says, pocketing the vials.

>Identifying Potions
>In addition to the standard methods of identification, PCs can sample from each container they find to attempt to determine the nature of the liquid inside. An experienced character learns to identify potions by memory—for example, the last time she tasted a liquid that reminded her of almonds, it turned out to be a potion of cure moderate wounds.
If we've had these potions before, we should be able to recognize them.
3.5e Wealth By Level absurdly subtracts the value of all of the consumables the character is assumed to have used from their starting equipment (Pathfinder corrects this), so any lvl 5 hero is assumed to have ingested a wide variety of options.
Posey can tell if a potion is a cure potion, because cure potions burn her tongue.

Examining the two vials, Dust can tell immediately that it is filled with healing potion. More specifically, Heal Moderate Wounds

>According to the SRD, Cure Moderate Wounds tastes like almonds
>Dust got an 11 on alchemy
>It could be Cyanide or a Potion of Poison (Cyanide tastes like almonds)

Posey puts a drop of each vial on her tongue, to see if it burns her, to make sure the potion is genuine and not poison.

"You're welcome to them, healing isn't my specialty," Brie says again offering the potions to either Posey or Dust, or Garv, Silver, and Kira.
