Welcome back to thread number like 5 or 6 of Occupied Equestria, a My Little Pony RP based heavily upon the Equestria at War mod for Hearts of Iron 4, and using the mechanics of D&D 3.5, and set in South-East Equestria after it has been conquered and split between the Changelings and a foreign fascist power

Onyx is cleaning glasses, Spark has secured a contract to clear a quarry of Zombies for a real estate developer, Silver is eating meat, Ash and Iron are trying to raid what they believe to be a gangster's den, and Dark Star is holding hooves.

That is true.
After a final draw on his cig, Silver stamps it out underneath his hoof. "Onto next bit of business." He steps into the bar to see if Spark made his way back after losing track of each other, looking at the counter and at the various tables.

"Everything from police, to gangs, to changelings. None of it is really concrete, mostly just rumors, and I could not get close enough to site to actually investigate it." After a couple seconds of silence, he leans in and speaks in a low, quiet voice as to avoid being overheard. "Between you and me, I am little spooked by idea that changelings are here. It is not good if that rumor is actually true."

I’ve been waiting like a week to talk about changelings, it just hasn’t come up in the story

Changelings are essentially the same as bees sexually. They have Drones, which are males, Workers, which are infertile females, and Queens, which are fertile females. Workers that are away from the presence of queens for long enough can become fertile to lay eggs that will necessarily become drones. (Same as bees). A Changeling’s shapeshifting will give it the genitals of the creature it has turned into. (At least if it has bothered to change with that much detail).

Every Changeling besides Chrystalis seen in the show at least until the very end of “to where and back again” and perhaps even “To change a Changeling” has an unambiguously male model, which I think implies that Drones are a sort of military force.

When Silver comes back after getting his supplies, he looks kitted out for an adventure. His white button-up shirt has been replaced by worn olive drab fatigues, rubber military boots reinforced with metal plating, and a thick battle-scarred metal cuirass. "I believe I am ready when you are. Now, what are details of this job?"

Unfortunately without GM and Onyx, and with my traveling for Christmas... I think I need to call it a night this time. I’ll hop in the taxi as my next action if you guys set it up so I can get there and set it up for tomorrow. Or if GM gets here before then, so I can join you guys in the quarry tomorrow. See you then.

"She was not at all happy with Sister Marery's dealing with us nor selling foals. When she was causing too much of a fuss we took her from the Orphanage with the children. The police were bribed off and she was never going to go to the Blackhooves, so we did not need to kill her. She stayed here for at least a week or so tending after the foals. She left here last week, disgusted. She said something about joining ponies who were 'going to do something' down south."

Besides, it wasn't the bite alone that killed her.
Also, I can't do sacrificial rituals because of alignment restrictions.
I wanted to be exalted anyway. If anything would have a cost, I'd rather pay for it in XP.

Sister Ash walks after the foals slowly, the colt wrapped around her leg taking a chunk out of her carrying capacity (I do have a doubled carrying capacity because I'm quadripedal, right?)
