>>69184Yes. Do you have a certain place for me to start, or do I decide?
>>69184"Hello, can I pick up a possession that was used in a recent case?"
>>69186I don't know where to start, except that it is in the City of Baltimare
>>69187"What's the item and case number?"
>>69185Good.
Sister Ash falls to her knees panting, her shawl a mess.
I'm getting ready to pass out... I am sick today..
>>69188"It was a halberd, and I don't know the case number."
>>69184"How many bits for them"
*He pays and leaves*
"thank you."
*He Heads to the Party Headquarters*
>>69184Iron thought a bit. He was already sturdy as it is and he did not want to be a hypocrite and go back on his ideals like a coward. "Just treat both hides without steel and nylon. How much will it cost in total?"
>>69189The sister is horrifed. The Foal is impressed.
"I never knew you had... such
powers"
"Oh thank you! You beat up that bad wolf!"
>>69190"Alright, can you describe the date and location of the incident, as well as the type of incident?"
>>69191He pays 6 bits and eventually arrives at the party headquarters
[Read more] >>69193"Yesterday, at a flower shop, self-defense. Seriously, how many halberds do you get in here?"
>>69193Are there Griffons by the door?
>>69193Sister Ash hobbles over to the foal, placing a hood on his head to check for any bruises.
"Are you alright..?" She asks, weakly
>>69192"Only 50 bits"
>>69196Both griffons are by the door, same as earlier. They are of a red and black coloration, but as stated before, those two red and black colored griffons are different than the red and black colored griffons you are to follow the next night
>>69194She looks at him. "You'd be surprised. Anyways, yesterday.... I see, looks like a fatal stabbing at a flowershop with.... no wait, that involved a knife. Wrong flowershop"
>>69196"That was awesome! You saved us!" The foal hugs her, then pulls away when he is covered in blood
[Read more] >>69198Iron agrees to the transaction. "How long until the armor is done?"
>>69198"..."
Onyx looks ready to plow his head into the wall.
>>69198"Pardon me, dear.." Sister Ash wheezes apologetically, as she spends her two Orisons to try to close her wounds.
>HP is now 24 >>69188I emerge from the woods, and head out towards Baltimare.
"Why, what do we have here? Think it will be any different than the ones before it?" I ask myself as I meander down the road.
"Doubtful. But if it ends the same as the other one, then we will at least have a good laugh about it."
>>69201>>69198"Now.. let's get you home.." she continues, picking up her broom and leading the way back to the Abby
>>69200"Stabbing with a halberd.... knife, knife, spear, knife, HALBERD! Wait. Not at a flowershop."
After two minutes "Okay, I think I found it. Item 10520. We normally wouldn't release evidence only a day after a homicide, but the case is as solved as it is going to be, and we need the space in our evidence room"
She goes to ask someone to retrieve the item
>>69201The sister looks at her "Goodness, I think we should take you to a doctor"
>>69202He looks at you with the griffon equivalent of pic related
>>69204"Ash.. what was that? The lightning and fire?"
>>69203Alright
[Read more] >>69205>Doctor".. Yes, if you would please.."
>Lightning and fire"Magick." she says flatly, appearing somewhat hurried
"Just a few tricks I learned from the trees..."
>>69207"What exactly is in those trees?"
In any event, they call up priestess Sundew to drive her to the hospital. They place her in the back seat, and sister mary comes along
"I heard you saved a foal and a sister from a dire wolf"
>>69206Counters are mostly the same as last time
>>69198Iron hands over the bits necessary. "How long does this process take?"
>>69208"It was the least I could do.." Sister Ash says
>DriveDo they have automobiles, or just wagons?
>>69211Mot have wagons, some have automobiles
>>69210Yes, he is there
>>69209"2 hours? If you rush it"
>>69211If it is OOC, then yes, my character saw automobiles when he explored the outskirts. Don't know if they are those first cars in existence or any other thing.
>>69212*DarkStar Walks over to him*
>>69212Iron shrugs. "I expect quality, not speed. There is no rush."
>>69214"Back already? We do we need to move to a more private location?"
>>69215"3 hours"
>>69216Iron agrees with the alloted time. "Is there anything to do while I wait? Any odd jobs or requests around these parts?"
>>69217He gets up, and limps to a room down the hallway on the first level
"What did you find?" He catss some sort of magic
>>69219"In three hours? Hard to say"
>>69220"Alright. I shall come three hours later then." He checks the clock to see the time and decides to visit the Watering Hole to see recreation activities.
>>69220"I Have infiltrated a communist cell, They Are planning a revolution, it is still in its infancy right now. Affordable Care Is Planning Something at the Docks, i assume it has something to do with "red and black" They Are also planning on Causing a revolution in the south."
>>69222"I see. We suspected as much. Now, what details can you offer me? Especially in the South and on the waterfront?"
>>69221What kind of "Recreation Activities?"
>>69224He'd be particularly interested in strength-based activities, maybe hoofwrestling or the typical "who can carry the most" kind of challenge. I can push to alcohol resistance since it's a kind of strength based on endurance.
>>69224>>69225Heck, have a damn fight club while you're at it.
>>68779>>68802>>68825>>68937>"We are working on, shall we say, convincing the ponies of the South and to the East">"We have some help that will be arriving in at the docks tomorrow">"We've secured help in our struggle. We haven't set a time for any action, but we are laying a foundation">Various ponies speculate as to what the establishment of a worker's state would look like. They see the fact that the other districts of Equestria are further from revolution as a sort of roadblock, and most believe the Black Hooves' line that throwing out the Blackhooves would leave a vacuum the Changelings would try to fill. Some, however, are optimistic about the chances of establishing an Semi-Enclave state in Baltimare, seeing as the Baltimare district does not share a border with the Changelings, but has another district as buffer to the East, Fillidephia to the North, the Fire Sea to the South, and open Ocean to the west. One pony suggests that maybe the Black Hooves would allow them to break off peacefully, or set themselves up as a worker's protectorate. This suggestion is laughed at, but he points out that they've let Larry Berry's socialists be elected, as well as Restorationist governments in Fillidephia and some towns in Manehattan, with only the border districts being denied any right to go against the party line. Another set of talk suggests that the Workers would do a better job of defending their homes than the Black Hooves ever would.>>69223"Not much information about either sir."
[Read more] >>69225Hmmm
It wouldn't be that difficult for me to think of sistuations where Iron is briefly hired as an escort for a hunter, or a body guard for an important figure, or he places bets on how much weight he drag, or he does some illegal boxing for cash, or, well, something. But at the moment I feel like it would be hard for me to follow through, I need a little time>>69227"I see. It sounds like they are indeed planning a revolt, but fortunately they don't have much prepared. We have time. It sounds like what is happening tomorrow will indeed be significant. And it sounds like they may have another faction aiding them"
"If you could go tomorrow to the docks, perhaps with some help, you could gather information, and then once we know what we need to know, try to hold them down long enough for us to send in the Reservists"
[Read more] >>69228>try to hold them down long enough for us to send in the Reservists""you mean i get shoot communists legally?"
>>69228It's actually not that bad. Like I said before, I can wait to plan and perfect a little quest to pass time. I'll be up for 1 more hour at the least. Do not focus too hard on me and finish up Dark's quest first. I'll do something IRL in the meantimme.
>>69229"Well, yes, after they've demonstrated that they are conspiring to revolt, or are working with foreign governments against this one. And it would be great to try to kill their plans in the craddle. but we also need them to keep talking, because there is a lot of information we don't know. You would need to act only after they've said their piece. As for sending in the reservists, well, it would be better if we never sent in any uniformed officers at all. The moment we do that, they are tipped off that we've figured out their plans, and they change tactics or attack us more quickly and directly. What would be best is if we could have a group of ponies with no known allegiance to the Black Hooves attack them and stop them. It would look like a gang killed them, like they failed to pay or came onto the wrong turf"
>>69231>it would be better if we never sent in any uniformed officers at all. The moment we do that, they are tipped off that we've figured out their plans, and they change tactics or attack us more quickly and directly."That Does Sound like a Problem."
>What would be best is if we could have a group of ponies with no known allegiance to the Black Hooves attack them and stop them. It would look like a gang killed them, like they failed to pay or came onto the wrong turf""Have Anyone in mind?"
>>69233"I Could ask around the tavern."
>>69234He laughs at this
"Hiring like you're filling in a crew on a sailing vessel? Alright. Well, it may actually be a benefit if they have no experience with the black hooves, because then it makes it more convincing that we are not the ones doing it. If you need help, we can provide some, but I don't think we quite have the mares to do it"
