This RPG is set in the land of Equestria after it has been conquered and split between the Changelings and a foriegn fascist nation. It is based in large part on the Equestria at War mod for Hearts of Iron 4, and uses D&D 3.5 mechanics
4 of the group have taken a job to clear a site of a future real estate development of undead. They seem to have stumbled upon a centuries old evil long forgotten by Equestria. Meanwhile, Ash has discovered foals from the order of Saint Prancis orphanage practicing dark magic and sacrifices in the woods, while Iron is having not-so-pleasant dreams
>>76856 →The skeleton does not animate. It's dead Onyx
>>76859Onyx snorts and walks towards the others.
>>76855 →"Well, this does not look like ash, at least..." Silver shows the vase and the substance it contains to the others. "What do you all think?"
>>76861>>76860Dark Star Follows
>>76864Onyx licks the salt looking substance to confirm
>>76865It's the most disgusting taste he has ever tasted in his entire life
>>76865Silver gives Onyx a horrified look. "Do not just lick it!"
>>76865"Whats it taste like?"
>>76868It's a grainy substance that is white. It does not taste like Sodium Chloride, if that is your question
>>76870Silver takes an empty coin pouch from his saddlebag, and fills it with the substance.
>>76865"There are better ways to tell what something is other than licking it!"
https://youtu.be/Wrf15CzeWroOnyx instantly turns un-crystal
>>76870Salt gotcha
>>76869"Not good..."
Onyx stumbles off and pukes his guys out
>>76873>>76872Kek
>>76874When he disturbs the substance, there arises a magical blue aura around it, that starts to coalesce, but does not before it is placed in the coin pouch
>>76875*Guts cause I can't type today
"Yep, that's salt"
>>76876"...Did...any of you see that just now?"
>>76877>>76876"i dont believe you."
Dark Star licks it
>>76879Absolutely fucking disgusting. Dark Star can be absolutely certain that if he tasted dried Zebra semen, he would enjoy the taste better than what he just put in his mouth
>>76879Silver just stares at Dark Star, having witnessed a new level of stupidity he did not know existed. He feels as if he has become dumber simply by having been party to it.
>>76881There is a well in the center of the room, and a small shelf with a single small book on it in the room as well
>>76883Dark Star pukes in the corner.
"thats definitely not salt."
>>76879My fucking sides
"BELIEVE ME NOW?"
>>76882He diverts his attention from the comedy of errors he has just seen, and goes to the lone book, wondering if, by some miracle, it might have some piece of information to help dispel the mystery of this room.
>>76886Opening the content of the book, Silver can see number of chemical equations, a language he does not understand that is probably something like Ponish in short-hand, drawn out plants, and.... Hello. At the beginning of the book is a written note
"Dear Cinnamon Corn,
I have discovered a way of preserving corpses that merits no little attention. By taking a corpse, rubbing it in an herbal and arsenic based solution, and then burning it with the proper spells, any corpse - even one that has been severely degraded, may be turned into a mixture of bone-fragments and arsenic-phosphate salts that may be stored in a simple container. Here is the real magic of this solution - the salt allows the spirit of the deceased to be summoned readily as an apparition, even without Resurrection magic, and then reduced back to a salt just as easily. In this way, you may summon the spirits of the dead even from ancient and decayed corpses
Yours, Joseph Curwhinny
August 6, 762"
>>76888He looks up from the book and towards his companions. "Congratulations! You both just licked bone fragments, arsenic, and dead ponies' souls."
>>76889"Interesting"
>More puking
>>76888Silver pockets the book. While he can't make heads or tails of the equations and the alchemy described in the book, he figures he can take it to somepony who can. With the mystery of the vases and what they contain dispelled, he turns to the final mystery in the room: the well.
>>76893"i think i should go see the nuns after we leave."
>>76894"Hmm? What would nuns be able to help you with?"
>>76895"i feel wrong now."
>>76896"Well, you did just lick remains of somepony."
>>76893He can look down the well and see... well, it;s pretty dark. But he can tell that it is a pit that is probably as wide as the room he is in now, with the floor of this room being probably a ceiling for the pit. There are black and brown spots on the floor of the pit. And now here's another feature that should get his attention: A piece of lumber that probably once blocked the door has fallen down it, allowing a sort of connection between the side of the well and the floor of the pit, like it could be climbed up
>>76896"You can feel wrong with me if you like"
>>76897Silver has this... elated feeling. This feeling of relief. A feeling of a sort of invulnerability. At least two ponies now can
never again criticize his choice of diet
>>76899Me and Spark haven't eaten meat yet, so don't feel relieved just yet
>>76899Depends on what you eat.
>>76898He taps his chin with a hoof, thinking about it. He checks to see how deep the pit is, if there are any good hoofholds on the lumber, and if there is any place good enough to secure some rope.
>>76898was that supposed to be blue?
>>76897puking horse noises
>>76857>>76902The lumber seems steady enough. The drop is less than 12 feet. As for rope, well, he could probably tie off on what remains of a door frame
>>76898>>76906It would actually be kinda funny yet demented if he ended up with the spirit of the pony he licked inside him.>>76905He grabs the length of hempen rope from his saddlebags, and starts tying knots in it to give him some extra hoof holds to help him climb down. "I am going down there."
>>76909reee don't give me such ideas>>76909The door frame does not come loose with the first few tugs
>>76910>>76909 Interested.jpeg
>>76910Climb: With a deep breath, he starts his climb down, keeping his horn lit to help him see what's down in the pit.
[1d20+2 = 12]>>76912Messed that up.
>>76905>Less than twelve feetOnyx jumps, the taste in his mouth making him no longer care about temporary things like life or death.
>>76913Silver proceeds down normally. But when he looks around the pit, he finds it to be... Empty. Disappointingly empty. The floors have a black and brown substance covering much of them, and a few halves of rib cages that Silver can identify as belonging to cattle. The walls are a simple brick like the remainder of the room, and have hundreds of knife-like scratches on them
>>76914I... Don't think he would take fall damage. The piece of lumber would probably support a climb out. Probably. He sees
>>76915
>>76916"This room is about as pleasant as that taste"
[1d20-1 = -12]>>76915Search: The fur on the back of Silver's neck stands on end: something is off about this room.
>>76917It actually smells better than the room above them. Then again, that smell didn't really seem as strong in the room above
>>76918Unfortunately, Silver can gather no more information than the following:
The room is just a pit, which ordinarily would not allow anything or anyone in or out except through the well-like opening at the top
There are cattle ribs strewn about on the floor, as well as a couple pebbles, and a black and brown substance
The walls have cuts all over them
The lumber that sits on the floor of the pit and rests on the wall of the opening would allow a pony to climb up and out of the pit, and into the main level
>>76919>>76917"We should go. I do not like thought of being down here any more than I have to."
>>76920"I'm just here for the ride"
>>76915>>76920"we have a job to do."
[1d20+2 = 9]>>76921Climb: He nods, and begins to climb his way back out of the pit using the knotted rope he secured.
>>76923Good enough
>>76922>>76921The hell is that smell? There it is again
>>76924describe the room we are in.
>>76922"Yes, yes, I know, but this is not easy task. We need to search for anything of use to help us."
>>76924Silver wrinkles his nose at the smell once he's back out. "Ugh...I am tired of this stench..." He begins following the scent trail to find out what exactly is causing it.
>>76850 →Sister Ash maintains a serious but soft voice as she lays out the offenses.
"... Now, you're only foals, so you didn't know better, but if you want to get out of this one you'll have to be very compliant in telling us exactly who set you up on this."
She gestures to the filly who was commanding the hound
"Who taught you those words?"
>>76925On two walls are a number of shelves with various jars on them. Most of them look like the "salt" jar, some do not, and appear to contain other chemicals. In the center is the "well" which is the entrance to the pit. On a sort of shelf by the door was the booklet that Silver pocketed, as well as a couple flasks. One wall has chains on it and various restraints, which do not appear to have been used recently
>>76927It seems to be coming from the hallway
>>76927DArk Star follow with his guns out
"I hope whatever is making it is dead."
>>76928They are entirely silent, and unwilling to snitch. Except for the Rust colored earth pony. He points a hoof straight at the cream colored Pegasus fillie
>>76929He continues to follow it to find its source, readying his hammer just in case.
>>76930"In all likelihood? That is probably why it smells."
>>76931Sister Ash turns towards the fillie her voice calm, but dreadfully stern
".. Just what were you thinking you would accomplish when you brought your friends out into the forest to conjure evil spirits?"
>>76929ill comeback and check those flasks out when we find out what stinks
>>76932"well i guess i mean undead then."
[1d20+5 = 12]>>76933Sister Ash takes a strip of cloth and ties it around her wound.
Heal check
>>76936>Fail*Continues to bleed*
>>76935"So, that place where you bought your revolvers, do you think they will clean weapons?"
>>76938>>76935On the floor ahead of them, illuminated by the flashlight, they see a pony.
Well, "pony" is perhaps a bit generous. The creature clearly was a pony at some point. The lips of the pony are entirely gone from the head. It now has exposed fore-teeth, the natural gap between teeth and the rear molars, giving it a perpetual wicked smile. One eye is entirely missing from its socket, leaving a black hole in the skull. The tongue too, seems missing. A cracked and cataract filled right eye remains and stares at the group, but... with the eye lids entirely missing. One ear has fluff on it, the other is bare flesh. The skull has at points only exposed bone, but most is covered in this dark leathery flesh-like substance that won't quite rot. Ontop of the head is a helmet. The strap goes down underneath the head, and keeps it firmly strapped on.
My Celestia does he smell
ghastly... worse than he looks. It's not just the decay of a corpse, it's almost supernatural
The pony wears a uniform. It is a uniform that can be instantly recognized by most as belonging to an Equestrian non-commissioned officer. This uniform covers most of the front of the horse, although it can be seen that further down the rear of the horse the belly seems to be missing some flesh and is likely castrated. He has a belt with a holstered pistol nearer his flank. One forehoof still has a horse shoe, the other hoof is split and sinew is showing. The uniform has a couple tears in it, and some blood, but this pony is missing any sign of a bullet or shrapnel wound, unlike the last two, who were clearly wounded. This pony is wearing a flak jacket, and aside from one long gash it is undamaged. Indeed, you can see from a Los Pegasus campaign medal and a Manehattan campaign medal that this particular pony was quite an experienced soldier of the Empire of Harmony, having fought both the Changelings and New Mareland, and making it all the way to Harmony's last stand. For all of that, the Fascists never slew him
In fact, he seems kind of animated now, clearly capable of movement, probably quick movement. He seems to have seen the group. He lets forth an unnatural "WHOOOOOOOOOOOOORG" that does not seem to belong to this realm
Roll for initiative
>>76938"possibly. im not very sure. that was the first time ive been there."
>>76941Well, he ain't going forward quickly
[1d20+3 = 16]>>76943Goddammit.
Are Onyx and Spark present for their initiative rolls?
>>76933"Protection from bad ponies"
Rosemary is still speechless
>>76945I'm here, but I am just a little confused as to the location of this new encounter. I said I would follow you guys, so if the GM will allow me to be there, I will roll.
[1d20+4 = 24]>>76939"Poor bastard."
>>76948And on the complete opposite end of the spectrum from the zombie...
>>76946"Protection you say? So you summoned a hellhounf from the depths of Tartarus?" She says, stepping forward
"After you summoned, just what were you intending to do with it?" She implores, leaning in
>>76950The colt does not want to answer
>>76946"A hellhound is an evil creature: invoking it is by definition an act of evil. It's not the sort of monster that can be used for good intentions, but only for ruthless violence." She continues accusingly
"So what was it that you all had planned? To have it bite someone? Burn them? Set fire fire to a building?" She demands
>>76952At the colt? He lowers his ears, and squeaks out "It wasn't my idea..."
>>76953No, at the filly, the one she was speaking to earlier that directed the hellhound to bite her
>*Is still bleeding*
[1d20+5 = 24]>>76954One more heal check
>>76955There. That outta be closed up by tomorrow morning.
>>76953"Well?" She demands, speaking to the filly who was seemingly running the stunt
>>76954She stares at Ash. Silently. Defiantly
>>76958"I don't have all night, young Missy." Sister Ash hisses, once again levitating the foal by the scruff
"What were you even thinking?!"
>>76959"I should ask you the same, calling down bolts of lightning from the sky. Sending a large dog after children"
>>76960Onyx and Spark are MIA
>>76962Spark did respond to the roll call, so he should still be here.
>>76963Roll initiative then
>>76966Good, better than the lich.
Alright, so current initiative order is:
Dark Star
Silver
Spark
The Sargent
>>76967Not a lich, just a zombie. Maybe more in the darkness we can't see yet, who knows.
>>76961"Don't change the subject, young lady. I'll have you know that when I perform my practices, I actually know what I'm doing." She is now holding back her fury, her eyes visibly glowing
Caleb as well bales in disapproval before laying down on the floor.
"And I know better than to go around cohorting with evil spirits. Any sort of evil spirits that accept a measly wounded rabbit as a 'sacrifice' are bound to have ulterior motives in the matter: you should all hope that you're not already cursed!" She exclaims, pointing at each of them
"Now spit it out. What were you planning to do with that monster?"
>>76969It got a pretty large description for a single zombie tho.
>>76967If it were a lich, you'd all be dead and reanimated by now.
>>76970Rosemary: "Consorting with evil spirits? What is this?"
Fillie: "Speaking of being the consort of evil, who is that gangster you brought along?"
>>76971This
>>76972Also this
>>76972I guess that's true. Still, he seems to be the main baddie in this situation.
[1d20+5 = 17]>>76968Dark Star shoots at sarge with ride the lightning
>>76971Well, I mean, you gotta get in all those juicy details about how revolting the zombie is, and how heinous the actions that have been taken against it to turn it into a zombie were.>>76972This. Liches are no laughing matter. Unless you're playing Dragon's Dogma, in which case liches are laughably easy to deal with.
>>76975The Sargent's skin is pretty tough, it seems to bounce off
>>76973Sister Ash rear and stamps her forehooves into the floor
"Answer the question, young Missy!"
>>76974Might be an advanced Ghast or a Wight, or some other kind of higher CR undead creature.
>>76977Is the zombie close enough to hit with a melee weapon without needing to use a move action?
>>76979If you don't want to use s move action, just charge.
>>76977For the first time since they have been here Dark Star looks worried maybe even afraid.
>>76978AC is higher than 17! Use touch attacks if possible to bypass it!
>>76982This is the point in the game where I ask "what in the hell is a touch attack?"
>>76983It's a special property of an attack which bypasses armor class. Mostly magic shooty stuff, I think
>>76983For you, grapples and trips.
>>76978"You want to know? Really? Well I will tell you"
She looks at Rosemary. Not Ash. Rosemary. She narrows her eyes
"You
sold us to those monsters. Do you even know what happened to half of us? Do you know what happened to me? Did you know that the little unicorn was almost starved to death?
How could you"
She looks back to Ash, and speaks now to her. "My father trusted in the power of Good and Harmony. He told me we would triumph because we were good. When he was killed, they sent me here to these nuns, and they told us that they were good. And the nuns told us that Celestia would win because she was good. And they all told all of us, Lily Breeze, Orchid Blossum..." She is crying now "That the Changelings and the Fascists were evil. Well guess who is still alive! Guess who is still free! If being good means selling children to monsters and being a slave... or dead... Then I chose EVIL!"
>>76979No. It can be hit only by means of a move action. Distance 20 ft
>>76981I think you are underselling your attack bonus. Although even if it is higher, I think you still would not have landed a hit
>>76984In which case Silver can do absolute jack shit.>>76985Again, Silver can do jack shit. If it's a ghast (and it most likely is), then he matches Silver in dexterity and exceeds him in strength. Odds are, he can't beat the thing if he tries to do either.>>76986Yeah, we're screwed.
>>76986I should slap this little shit, but I won't.
Sister Ash just stands there fuming (literally) for several moments, not even sure where to start as she dangles the silly filly in the air with her magick
".. How foolishly shortsighted...!" she gasps
She turns to Sister Rosemary with an awkward glance, still unsure how to respond
>>76987Just charge in and have it to pieces. It's not invincible.
>>76988Sister Rosemary looks back at Ash. Her expression is of awkward horror. She looks at Ash as if the Fillie's speech shut her the hell up
>>76991>No responseThanks for the help, Sis...
Sister Ash takes a deep breath, as the smoke coming from beneath her shawl ceases abruptly.
".. You've been dreadfully misguided.." she begins.
>>76992Sister Rosemary adds, finally finding an argument
"you can thank Ash here for your freedom, and that you are still alive. And she is Good"
>>76992She picks up the filly and levitates her so close that they can feel each other's breath.
"For starters, nopony sold you." She state boldly
[1d20+9 = 21]>>76989>INB4: Silver dies here.>>76990Oh boy, I sure am ready to die."RRRRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGGGGGGHH!" An intense rage fills Silver's entire being at the sight of the defiled pony. He charges straight for it, aiming a blow from his hammer right at the creature's head to try to put it out of its misery.
>>76995I seriously hope this guy has low HP at least.
>>76996>>76997No way amonster that got a whole paragraph to describe it is going to go down in one hit.
>>76994The fillie spreads her wings, presumably to try to steer herself in the air. She retains her trademark look
"
They did"
>>76995That smell. So that's where it was coming from
Roll a Fortitude save
>>76997That doesn't sound too bad for HP, just two hammer and revolver hits should do it. If it's AC though, you're fucked hard.
>>76997If it's any compensation, defeating a CR 3 monster by yourself is worth a lot of XP.
>Tfw just killed a hellhound
>>77001Speaking of, will the GM tells us we won XP when certain actions are done?
>>76999"No, they didn't." Sister Ash replies sternly
"You were kidnapped, by gangsters. Everyponyhere has been worried sick for you." She continues
>>76999OH BOY I SURE AM READY TO DIE!>>77001And you guys managed to defeat a small army of communists and got jack shit XP for doing so. I'm not so sure we'll get anything useful in terms of XP from this ONE ghast IF WE MANAGE TO SURVIVE.
[1d20+7 = 19]>>77004FUCKING DICE, COME ON!
>>77002I would like to know this as well.
Not that I've been counting it myself oranything...
[1d8+3 = 7]>>77003"Is that what they told you?"
She looks angry
>>77005He withstands the stench, and the hammer cracks a dent in the Helmet of the Army of Harmony
>>77005>>77007A shrieking "RYAAH!" comes from the creature's throat, as the hammer has harmed it
>>77005Taking on a CR 3 encounter by yourself is worth at least 750, conservatively.
>>77008Ok, seems it has fullplate as armor, so 18 is the sweetspot where you can hit the beast.
>>77009GM decides that.
>>77009That doesn't mean anything to me, as A.) I don't know how much XP tt even takes to level up, B.) I don't have any other enemies to compare that XP amount to, and C.) there's four of us, so we're not going to get 750.
>>77007"It is, and I believe them." Sister Ash replies sternly
"Everyone in this Abby has been disturbed by the events of these past few weeks, and by the looks of it, you have as well." She says, looking the filly
>>77010I know...
>>77012Sorry, GM has a target on my character's back. Get what I mean?
>>77011Wait, there's 4 of you? Then why are you so worried you're going to die?
>>77014First shot is a miss, that's all. Also Onyx's player isn't here. Only Dark, Spark, and Silver are fighting.
>>77012She looks disturbed alright
"I will not be a slave, food, or a sacrifice"
[1d20 = 4]>>77007I fire a shot at this monster... hopefully.
>>77014Because Dark Star didn't do squat to it when he attacked, and Onyx isn't actually in the fight. Spark...maybe. He does have magic. But Silver? Silver's going to be the one to die in this case. Both Dark Star and Spark at least have ranged attacks, so they can keep their distance. Silver has to go all in with melee, and looking at these attacks the ghast has? Silver is absolutely fucked. One bite, and it's all over.
>>77017Nice me.me
We'll get them next time.
>>77017The gun seems to miss
>>77016"Don't you even get me started on sacrificesyoung lady!" Sister Ash growls, lifting the bloody, cloth-wrapped knife
>R.I.P. Mr. Bun Bun"Who was it that taught you that little pathetic excuse for a conjuration back there? Did you think you'd feel safer with a few diabolical canines running around wreaking havock?"
>>77021"I can control them"
So I am wondering if we should wait until we have Onyx for the next attack, or if the Sargent should make his move
>>77022"THAT'S BESIDE THE POINT!" Sister Ash shouts, losing her composure for a moment
"There was no way you had goodintentions summoning fiends in the middle of the night. What was it you were trying to do?"
This little shit is begging for a spanking, dodging questions like this.
>>77023If you're bringing out the strongest attack of the Sarge, then yes. If not, just go for it.
>>77025EVERY attack is a ghast's strongest attack.
>>77026It can't be that bad. Maybe it'll take like 25 HP off from a hit. Completely passable stuff.
>>77027That's half of Silver's health. And he doesn't even have full health right now. And he can't deal enough damage to knock this thing out in one hit without using power attack, taking 5 out of his attack roll, and criting the ghast.
>>77024You are interrogating her next to somepony she knows has authority over her. So of course she doesn't want to speak without her lawyer present>>77024"To prove we could"
>>77026FALSE. A Ghast's two secondary attacks are not as strong as its primary
>>77029For all intents and purposes, let's consider a full attack to be a single attack.
>>77029Sister Ash is now fuming again.
"Who taught you that trick?"
>>77031[Angry dragonhorse noises]
[1d20 = 14][1d20+3 = 20][1d20+5 = 6]>>77031She doesn't want to speak
>>77030Fuck it. Let's do this.
The Sargent lets forth an unnatural shriek as it bites out at Silver, and tries to smash him with his hooves
>>77033Well, it was nice knowing you guys, because Silver's gonna die.
>>770332 hit, 1 miss.
I guess one missed, huh?
>>77031*Dangling intensifies*
"You're in big trouble young lady. Do yourself a favor and tell us who it was that put you up to this foolishness."
>>77034How much dex does Silver have?
>>77036"No pony put me up to this. I did this all on my own"
>>77034Stop being a crybably, it's not like you got slashed after the perfect opportunity to grapple the opponent into unconsciousness for 3/4 of your health.
>>7703717.>>77038Iron managed to get away, right? And he didn't have to deal with having to make TWO FORTITUDE SAVES TO AVOID GETTING PARALYZED!
>>77039Well, you only did 1 fortitude save, not 2. Also I failed a damn easy grapple check.
>>77040That was just the Fortitude save to avoid being sickened by the ghast's stench. There's an additional Fortitude save every time he gets hit by the ghast to avoid getting infected with Ghoul Fever, AND another Fortitude save to avoid getting Paralyzed.
>>77037"You taught yourself an extraplanar language and made up a conjuration spell that involved 3 people on the fly? I find that hard to believe." She replies quizically, being no stranger to the school of summoning
"What kind of debauchery have you been involved in? And what have you been reading?"
[1d4+1 = 5]>>77038>UnconsciousnessUh...
>>77039Iron was already paralyzed, and he didn't get away
>>77039The forward teeth of the sargent seem to get stuck in a part of Silver's armor. His good hoof bounces off of Silver's breastplate. But the broken, sinewy hoof breaches and contacts Silver's hide
Roll a fortitude save
>>77042"There are books..."
>>77041>Avoiding getting infected.I guess that wouldn't be automatic. Roll a second fortitude save
>>77044Wait, really? I was going to kill him if I grappled him underwater? Damn, chalk it up to rookieness.
>Iron was already paralyzedI-it was just a dream... i-it wasn't real
[1d20+7 = 17][1d20+7 = 27]>>77044[Very Much Dead Fighter Noises]
>>77045Oh, you were talking about when he wanted to 1v1 the special forces guy but do it unfairly
>>77046Well fuck. He ain't getting paralyzed today, nor turned into a ghast tomorrow
>>77046See? You had nothing to worry about, my guy.
Why those dice did not appear for me?
>>77047I just wanted to knock him out and take them to an arena of sorts, I wanted to isolate him first then ask for a duel.
>>77044Sister Ash grits her teeth and continues
"What books? When did you get them?" She implores
She turns to Sister Rosemary
"Make sure to search all of their rooms. There's nothing more unruly than a rambunctious child playing with a black magick tomb."
>>77051I don't like where this may go
>>77051>Inb4 she found the Book Of Vile Darkness
>>77053Kids should'nt be playing with tombs. It's just asking for trouble.
They'll have plenty of time to do that shit after college.
>>77047He still has to deal with being the only pony there who has managed to deal damage. And is rapidly running out of both health and time.
>>77057Didn't you have like 50 HP? Surely your HP hasn't dropped lower than 40 or 35, right?
>>77054Or the dreaded Necmarenomicon of the mad Arabian Abdul Alhazelred
>>77051Sister Rosemary: "That we shall. What is this about a 'fiend'?"
>>77060Passable, keep it up, proud of you.
>>77059i suspected as much with the words she was saying earlier.
>>77061Need I remind you that Silver has only managed to deal 5 damage? AND he seems to be the only one who can reliably deal damage to the thing?One of these rounds, the ghast's going to hit all three attacks, and Silver will just up and die from it.
>>77059"A hellhound. It appeared in the forest after these little fools began their little game."
She points at her wound
"The pestilent beast bit me. It's gone now: I got rid of it."
>>77063Nah my guy, it only has AC of 18. Don't worry, Star can hurt it, only the hit should be 18 or higher, not 17
>>77066As I said, Silver's the only one what who can reliably deal damage to the ghast, by virtue of his attack bonus being unusually high for his level. It'll get even higher next round when he gets a chance to draw his greatsword.
>>77064"A
hellhound?" She seems to be in disbelief
>>77063Spark could, if he'd use his laser spell. Or Dark Star, if he'd duel wield and double tap
>>77068"Yes. A hellhound." She confirms
>>77068>>77063Or Silver, if he'd use the 2d6 great sword which I think he has weapon specialization for
>>77069Her jaw drops open
"How did they..."
>>77071"That's what I'd like to know..!" Sister Ash growls
>>77072"I'll wake some of the other sisters... Watch the children"
>>77070I was planning on using it when I saw it wasn't a skeleton. Unfortunately, because he doesn't have the Quick Draw feat and because the ghast was 20 feet away, he couldn't draw his sword and charge at the same time because drawing a weapon is a move action.But, when the next round comes, he'll be able to make full use of both his Weapon Focus and Weapon Specialization feats for his greatsword.
>>77073Sister Ash promptly locks the door, lest the fowls get any more stupid ideas.
[1d20+7 = 15]>>77073Dark Star Shoots at him with ride the lightning
>>77076I see what you mean, Silver player
>>77076>>77077And there you go.
>>77078>>77077A T L A S P L S
"Absolutely silly..." Sister Ash grumbles before mutters more unintelligible Ignan proverbs
>>77076"You'll get 'em next timeIt fails to penetrate...
>>77075They get the message. Except maybe for one fillie
>>77081Sister Ash trots in three circles lays down by the door, looking not unlike a small dragon as smoke fumes from nostrils.
She levitates the disobedient filly in the air above her, keeping a sharp eye on the rest.
Caleb repeats the motion, just as exhausted as his master.
>>77081I wasn't wanting to use my ray attack...
[1d20+3 = 7]>>77082Roll opposed grapple
>>77083You don't have to, I just think you have like 4 of them a day at most
[1d20 = 7]>>77084only 2 a day
I guess I will try one more shot before using the ray. I fire my gun
[1d20+8 = 18]>>77081In a mixture of pain, anger, and a bit of fear, Silver slips into his native Cyrillic tongue to curse at the Sargent. He unsheathes his greatsword and swings it at the monster trying to bite him. "DIE! RRRRAAAAAAGGGGHHHHH!"
[1d20+5 = 24]>>77084[Really lough sigh]
>>77087*REALLY LOUD SIGH*
>>77089Naughty fillies man...
>>77085Jesus, come on guys. Don't make Silver do all the work here.
>>77086Barely made it.
>>77087Stop stealing rolls, Ash. The stallion gang really needs them right now.
>>77081Iron is sweating profusely.
>>77087That was an opposed grapple btw.
Sister Ash easily restrains the rebellious filly, dangling her helplessly in the air until the other sisters arrive.
>>77086The Flak Jacket that never before stopped a Fascist shell fragment has now stopped Silver’s sword
>>77085The shot hits, but fails to penetrate a damned near iron hide
>>77087Fillies, especially virgin fillies, can be used as spell components for certain magic
>>77092No! I'm not about to chase this brat to the forest again.
>>77094I'm prohibited from using those kinds of components because of my Good alignment, but I can name 3 different ways to do so.
>>77094Evil casters can do all sorts of haxx shit with the bodies and souls of Humanoid children in the BoVD.
Just for the record, this thing's AC isn't 18...it's fucking 24. We can't beat him.
>>77097Silver will more likely than not die, but I hope to god he can at least do so while helping Dark Star, Spark, and Onyx escape.
>>77097Yes you can. Your attack mod is 8. All you need to do is surround him then charge him from a flanking position. Use your tower shield for cover while you get into position so he can't AoO you.
>>77097That doesn't make sense, your hit shouldn't have happened it that's the case. Trust me it's 18 AC
>>77100If you flank, you get +2 to hit. Also, the enemy is denied his Dex AC.
>>77101But he wasn't flanking. He charged straight for the zombie boy. When did he flank?
>>77102I know he wasn't. I'm suggesting it.
>>77099HE'S RIGHT ON TOP OF SILVER! SILVER CAN'T DO SHIT EXCEPT EITHER TRY TO TRIP HIM, AND MOST LIKELY FAIL, OR TRY TO LURE HIM AWAY FROM THE REST OF THE GROUP SO THEY CAN ESCAPE, AND THAT'S ASSUMING HE DOESN'T GET PARALYZED THIS TURN OR GET TURNED INTO A GHAST ON THE NEXT DAY! SILVER IS ABSOLUTELY TOAST! THERE'S NOTHING ANYONE CAN DO FOR HIM AT THIS POINT!>>77100That's his flat-footed AC. For the first round of combat, when his AC is reduced and he can't use his dex bonus. It's 24 for every round after that.
>>77103It's easy to flank, so long as you have one ally.
>>77097Oh don't puss out on the first Ghast. It's an AC of 17 plus 4. Or 21
>>77104Jeez, with your enthusiasm, you should roll a fear save. Trust me, it's going to be okay. No way the GM will let you die, especially since you were nice to him.
I think
>>77107>No way the GM will let you dieThis is not a good attitude to have.
>>77106My dice rolls are shit, I can barely beat 18, much less 21.>>77107No, Silver is very much dead. RIP Silver. You lived a good life.
>>77108Well, I'm pretty sure the GM won't let Silver die. Even Iron didn't die even after the bantz and subsequent actions after that.
>>77087I tickle the filly with my magick, just to mess with her.
>>77111She is taken... very off guard with this, and comes very close to a laugh
>>77109https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CDdvReNKKuk
>>77112*She tickles the filly more, partly out of boredom, partly out of revenge for the dog bite*
>>77113The fillie comes to understand this sadistic form of torture
>>77114*insane laughter*Sister Ash continues to mercilessly lay down her disciplinary action.
"Naughty, naughty, naughty filly..!"
So, at what point do we host the inaugural "Silver Sword is Dead" festival?
>>77117After he dies quietly in his sleep in 100 more years
>>77117At least you'll be able to introduce your new character, Ms. Skittlebug
>>77117Not today! We aren't leaving you for dead.
>>77118This to be honest.
>>77116*Tickle torture intensifies*
"You've been a very bad filly... Just what do you have to say for yourself?"
>>77117Chill out, my guy. It's fine and dandy. Breathe in and out.
>>77119Well, there's also that
So you can show your love RP skills
>>77121"hehehe the stallions at the warehouse could do worse hehe"
>>77119Or I'll come up with something else, since apparently the Isle of Greneclyf doesn't exist in this universe.
>>77123That's bullshit, but I believe it.
*Relentless tickling continues until the Sisters arrive*
>>77124>Grenecliff doesn't existOf course it exists, they are just still parasitic, which I'm pretty sure they are in the mod
Otherwise there wouldn't be a need for the sharing or for importing Nyumba slaves>>77125"Gahaha"
>>77118>100 more yearsThe poor stallion is 68, how long do you expect him to live?>>77120He appreciates the gesture, but he sees where the end of the line coming up.>>77122*breathes in**breathes out*Boi, Silver is deader than a doornail at this moment.
>>77127until hes 168 obviously
>>77127Stahp. We will save you.
>>77127Roll luck to one-shot the zombie dude.
>>77126*Vengeful, irrationally cruel tickling ensues*
[1d20 = 6]>>77126They can also become cooperative with the ponies of Eastern Griffonia and fly their flag under the banner of Harmony.>>77128Pls.>>77129Again, he appreciates it, but...>>77130Rolling, then.INB4: natural 1
>>77132Uh... I feel like Iron needs a second raping for this...
>>77132>Queen Gytha must show everyone that she and her people are not parasites, but a reliable and staunch friendPretty sure that a need to take the love of others still counts as a need even if you convince them to do it intelligently and voluntarily
>>77134>inb4 has enough of my shit to the point where Iron becomes a slave for a changeling hive.
But seriously, Dark Star, Silver, and Spark have all gone, so we're just waiting on the Sargent to tear Silver's throat out and have his intestines for dinner.>>77135If it's to the benefit of both parties, then it's no longer parasitic.
>>77138Can't they just work like the worms in Futurama, where they live inside a host but instead of harming the individual, they boost his body? They are living inside a host, which they take advantage of it, therefore it's a parasitic relationship, but also symbiotic.
>>77136pls no i like iron
>>77138"Commensualistic" or "Symbiotic" or however you want to characterize it, it reflects a natural deficit of the necessary harmony and the need for the love and friendship of others
>>77140I guess he did let you have pussy through Blue Skies. Understandable. But GM is love, GM is life. GM is the god of this world.
>>77136>implying Iron would be satisfying>>77138Eh, we can wait for Onyx
>>77142>inb4 GM is Kira and writes Iron's name on the death note, instantly killing him through an 8-stallion gangbang in which Iron is the unwilling receiver yet again.
I think I might go to bed, if we're not going to open up the next scene.
>>77144>implying they care about his actual love output and not due to sadistic desire to torture a prideful creature into submission
>>77141Like I said I will probably just create a different character, since I'm absolutely shit at explaining things and the whole "non-supremacist changeling" idea goes against the entire story.>>77144Ah, right, gotta have him here to witness Silver's less-than-glorious demise at the hands of the undead.
>>77148Er, "hooves of the undead" in this case.
>>77148Silver will be A-OK, don't worry. If Iron can't die, then you can't either.
>>77147Now why would they do that?
>>77148What do you mean? Not every changeling
needs to be a Chrysalis follower for the followers of Chrysalis to be dangerous, just as a work featuring the Soviet Union as an antagonist doesn't need every Russian national to be antagonistic. Thorax is present in the timeline regardless
>>77151Because changelings are evil creatures and stuff. I don't know. Only thing I do know is that you're going to try it. I guarantee it.
>>77143Dark Star better work for it
>>77150>Iron can't die>>77152>Iron is loved by Changelings>>77146Yeah, I guess I will delay the next scene until I am certain about the details
>>77148I've got an idea for a character, but he would work more as a high-level faction head/quest giver than as a low-level PC.>>77150You underestimate the level of suck I am at this game.>>77151The character I had in mind isn't a skittlebug, nor even remotely similar to the changelings of Greneclyf, nor is she a follower of Chrysalis. Her hive was just one of many that, before Chrysalis came along, looked at ponykind like livestock. They took a mostly Isolationist approach to dealing with ponies. They'd send out "love-collectors" to pose as ponies in various nearby settlements, form relationships with them, and leech off the excess love without them knowing a thing about it. Then, after a few months of collection, they'd return to the hive, deposit the love they had collected, and would take a new identity in a new town. They'd also keep infiltrators in the Equestrian government to get an idea of the going-ons in the world, but other than that the only time they would try to get involved in the dealings of ponykind would be to steer them away from potential disasters. After all, they had to make sure their food supply wouldn't suddenly take a hit.
>>77154So.... basically what changelings did before Chrysalis
>>77153>Iron can't dieWell, if he hasn't died yet, then Silver can't possibly die. It just works.
No idea what the second one means. It would be funny if this statement turned out to be true ingame. Heck, he doesn't really have any negative emotions towards them, since he never really saw a changeling before and could probably get behind serving a female worker and start a new hive.
>>77153>Dark Star better work for it
>>77157Better ensure your ass is back to HQ if shit goes down and treat her to those movies. Pretty sure Skies would wallow even more in her misery if her coltfriend died on her.
Y'all know it's okay to run away if you think you're going to die, right?
You should be close to leveling up,try not to die.
>>77160That reminds me. If the gameplay turns into somewhat of a turn-based strategy game where you lead some ponies against the enemy like XCOM and the like, do you get XP for leading those ponies?
Srsly, don't go planningnew characters before you're even dead.
I only just started Sister Ash, but I've thought of all kinds of things I want to do with her.
>>77161You can get XP for anything the GM considers to be noteworthy or productive in the story.
How much XP you get out of combat really just depends on how quickly the GM wants the PCs to level up.
>>77162I guess that's a yes.
>>77160I assume you're talking about Spark, Onyx, and Dark Star, because there's no way Silver's even close to levelling up.>>77162Odds are, he's going to, so might as well start planning now. I honestly don't see how he could even try to survive at this poine. Maaaaaaaaybe if we had your OP druid who can summon hyper-intelligent animals to do her bidding and call lightning down from the sky, we could get out of there with only some minor scraps, but as it is, we're all weak as hell and none of us know how to play the game even a fraction as well as you can.
I'm pretty sure everyone passed out already, so I'll take off into bed. Night everyone.
>>77166Goodnight folks, and tune in next time to see in what horrible fashion Silver will die!
>>77164>not retreating and letting your friends tank the damageRemember kids, it's not about running the fastest, it's about running faster than the guy next to you.
>>77168Kind of a dick move when your character is the only tank involved.
>>77172Wake up, REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!
>>77173Iron is very troubled, but still sleeps for some reason.
>>77174[REEEING HORSE NOISES]
>>77176Just giving everyone their morning wake-up reee.
Also reee.
>>77177Keep those spirits up, you can make it!
You know who's going to end up a spirit today? Silver.
>>77180>>77179I believe in you, man! Silver will make it!
>>77181I mean, thanks, but I've already come to accept that there's somewhat close to a 75% chance that Silver will die one way or the other. That's just how it goes.
>>77182I still believe! I believe!
>>77179That's alright. I've yet to see media written after 1800 where the quest for immortality was depicted positively anyways
I was told I need to get on and kill stuff deader
>>77185Meet The Sargent
>>76939
>>77186Sorry technical difficultys.
What must Onyx kill?
>>77187The only enemy in front of us.
>>77187I'll repost the descriptive paragraph in full:
>On the floor ahead of them, illuminated by the flashlight, they see a pony.>Well, "pony" is perhaps a bit generous. The creature clearly was a pony at some point. The lips of the pony are entirely gone from the head. It now has exposed fore-teeth, the natural gap between the teeth and the rear molars giving it a perpetual wicked smile. One eye is entirely missing from its socket, leaving a black hole in the skull. The tongue too, seems missing. A cracked and cataract filled right eye remains and stares at the group, but… with the eye lids entirely missing. One ear has fluff on it, the other is bare flesh. The skull has at points only exposed bone, but most is covered in this dark leathery flesh-like substance that won't quite rot. On top of the head is a helmet. The strap goes down underneath the head, and keeps it firmly strapped on.>My Celestia does he smell ghastly… worse than he looks. It's not just the decay of a corpse, it's almost supernatural>The pony wears a uniform. It is a uniform that can be instantly recognized by most as belonging to an Equestrian non-commissioned officer. This uniform covers most of the front of the horse, although it can be seen that further down the rear of the horse the belly seems to be missing some flesh and is likely castrated. He has a belt with a holstered pistol nearer his flank. One forehoof still has a horse shoe, the other hoof is split and sinew is showing. The uniform has a couple tears in it, and some blood, but this pony is missing any sign of a bullet or shrapnel wound, unlike the last two, who were clearly wounded. This pony is wearing a flak jacket, and aside from one long gash it is undamaged. Indeed, you can see from a Los Pegasus campaign medal and a Manehattan campaign medal that this particular pony was quite an experienced soldier of the Empire of Harmony, having fought both the Changelings and New Mareland, and making it all the way to Harmony's last stand. For all of that, the Fascists never slew him>In fact, he seems kind of animated now, clearly capable of movement, probably quick movement. He seems to have seen the group. He lets forth an unnatural "WHOOOOOOOOOOOOORG" that does not seem to belong to this realmAC 21 thanks to a flak jacket. Has a sickening smell around it
>>77182Stop being a bitch, i wont let silver die.
>>77173She wasn't sleeping. She's just sleepy.
Finally escaped.
I can play, for now.
[1d20+8 = 22]>>77189>AC-21I'M GONNA REGRET THIS
Halberd attack,
with slight power attack. A -2 penalty to add +4 to damage.
>>77193But first, before you approach, roll a fortitude save
Last I remember, Sister Ash was watching the foals while she was waiting for the Sisters.
[1d20+5 = 12]>>77194>My one good saveEasy
>>77196I hope it's good enough
[1d20+5 = 16]>>77197It's what I get for being cocky
>>77198Same
>>77200Oh fucking hell, of course the accident is better
[1d4+4 = 5][1d2 = 2]>>77195A few lights turn on, and Sister Marery herself approaches Ash
"What is the matter here?"
>>77196Onyx finds himself physically
sickened by the stench of the Sargent. It throws off his attack with the Halberd, causing him to fail to penetrate tough flesh and the flak jacket where otherwise he may have succeeded
Onyx is Sickened for 1d4+4 minutes, and will take -2 on pretty much all dice rolls
Also rolling for the Sargent's target
1: Silver
2: Onyx
>>77202>1Get fucked.
Can I roll to aim Onyx's vomit at the enemy?
[2d20 = 20][1d20+5 = 10]>>77201The Horse gives off an unholy shriek, and raises its hooves and teeth at Onyx, biting and kicking
>>77203Yes
[1d20-2 = -13]>>77204Muh AC is 13 btw.
Rolling to puke on the Sargent while he attacks Onyx
>>77202Sister Ash takes several minutes explaining the events of the night.
>>77204>>77203One hoof - just one - penetrates through Onyx's armor
Roll a fortitude save for paralysis
>>77205Hit. It fails to notice the difference, but now vomit covers part of the front portion of the uniform
>>77206Her expression turns to utter horror
"My, I..."
>>77204>>77205Why did none of you pick up any holy weapons? It should've helped a lot.
>>77207"It's certainly foolish indeed.." Sister Ash says solemnly
"These silly foals didn't know what they were doing."
>>77208You have to be good-aligned to weild holy weapons.
Idk what everyone else's alignment is though.
>>77208Holy weapons dont help against undead.
>>77211Aren't undead evil creatures?
>>77211Undead are always evil. Holy weapons do extra damage.
[1d20+5 = 22]>>77207Just in, local man is sick of fort saves
>>77212Except for the occasional ghost.
>>77214Onyx is strong horse. He is not paralyzed
Dark Star's turn
>>77208>>77213>>77211holy is a +2
that was to expensive
>>77216Try to flank the Sargent to deal with 18 AC instead of 21
[1d20+5 = 6]>>77216i shoot at the sargent with the seeker of truth
>>77217Only priests would sell divine items anyway.
>>77219>inb4 Star shoots his own hoof.
>>77219Johnny I hardley knew ye
>>77219The gun flies out of Dark Star's hoof, and the bullet can be heard ricocheting across various walls
>>77214>>77182Roll for luck
[1d20 = 19]>>77224I swear to fuck if I get shot
>>77224Better than tripping yourself with the NPC you've just apologized for dissing her tribe.
>>77226Are you talking about Cauldron?
I'll be busy for a couple of minutes. Have to set up something. I believe in you, Stallion gang, you can do it!
Silver's turn and Silver needs to roll luck
>>77226Don't undersell Iron's spaghetti. He also called her infertile
>>77231What does Sister Marey say in response?
>>77209"It would be so much worse if they did," the sister says darkly
[1d20 = 1]>>77224>I got to take a shower and come back to 50 new posts.OH BOY, I SURE AM READY TO GET SHOT!
>>77234*I go to takeAnyways, F. I'm fairly certain Dark Star just killed Silver.
>>77233"Indeed..." Sister Ash replies, with a slight cringe
"It seems like this one got her hands on a black magick tomb of sorts. I'd like to search her room, if that would be alright."
>>77234Now you can start making a new character.
>>77190>Stop being a bitch, i wont let silver die.The fucking irony.
>>77234Wandering evil-aligned spirits happening to watch the melee cackle at your misfortune, while the good-aligned ones are grateful you'll be put out of your misery quickly.
>>77241If that's you atlas please stop fudging the dice
>>77241A T L A S P L S N O
>>77236>>77233Sister Ash looks at the filly that was just minutes ago tickled to the brink of exhaustion.
"Are you ready to cooperate?"
I want it to be known that Silver's final thoughts were of his late wife, Storm Warming, his three children, Silver Rain, Spectral Streak, and White Light, and his late parents, Hammer Anvil and Pleasant Meadow.
>>77245Wait, he had kids?
[2d6 = 2]>>77234Silver feels a sharp pain in his rump as Dark Star's bullet has sough truth and found it in Silver
>>77240Dark Star is now a literal pain in the ass to Silver as well as Blue Skies
>>77244She looks exhausted alright, but does not respond
>>77245Silver's turn in the order of initiative
>>77249>Dark Star is now a literal pain in the ass to SilverSo Sorry
>as well as Blue Skiespic related
[1d20+7 = 15]>>77247Yup.>>77249Trip: He yells out in pain. Now enraged, Silver attempts to trip up the Sargent.
>>77249"Hmmmph. You're up far past your bedtime, young Missy."
Just a question: do all the children sleep in the same room in the dorm, or are there several rooms?
I want to search their rooms in the dorm to confiscate any black magick tombs/tools, but I'd rather avoid disturbing the other children.
>>77252Tripping is a good idea. Lower touch AC, and he should take a penalty on his opposed roll from the nonprofficency in his armor.
[1d20+5 = 25]>>77252>>77252Alright, the touch attack lands. Because a greatsword - unlike a halberd, for instance, is not one of the weapons with which a trip attack may be made, Silver must necessarily make the attack with a hoof, and this provokes an attack of opportunity from The Sargent
He bites at Silver
>>77253There are a few rooms, segregated by age and sex where possible
>>77254Well, it was nice knowing you guys.
>>77254REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE ATLAS WHY???
>>77254Ouch.
Hope Silver has enough AC to avoid Crit confirmation.
Sister Ash turns to Sister Marey
"I'd like to search their rooms. If you would show them to me, that would be much appreciated."
She hasn't let go of the filly
"You're coming with me."
>>77258Oh, he's very much going to hit the critical and tear Silver's throat out. I keep telling you guys, I know there's no way Silver's going to survive this, but no one believes me.
>>77259What's your AC, 15?
[1d20+5 = 16]>>77255Make two separate Fortitude saves
Although maybe he should be immune to ghoul fever because he rolled a 20 on a previous fort save? Then again, that was an attack with a hoof, and not a bite so I shouldn't have made him roll the second fort save to begin with>>77258"We've already started"
She takes her to a section that has several dormitories. Foals have been awoken and pulled outside, and lights are turned on
[1d20+7 = 16][1d20+7 = 25]>>77260I have no clue. 18, I think.>>77261F is for Fortitude, and paying my respects.
>>77261Sister Ash hands the filly to another Sister, and Casts Detect Magick, searching the entire dorm for traces of spellcasting tools or tombs.
Detect Magick has a 60 foot emanation. She walks up and down the dorm until she finds something.
>>77264She's looking for any kind of aura, including faint or lingering ones.
[1d20+3 = 10]>>77263Neither paralyzed nor infected, Silver may proceed with the Trip. The bite cracks through Silver's foreleg
Roll opposed strength for the trip
[1d20+2 = 21]>>77266How much damage did the bite even do, though? It would be kinda nice for keeping track.
[1d8+3 = 6]>>77264A few auras, largely emanating from magical ponies
>>77267Silver is able to pull the Sargent down to the ground
Rolling damage on Silver
[1d20+3 = 7]>>77266That's it. Scorching ray. We finish this and take everyone out of this pit to heal at some hospital.
>>77268....
Anything else? A something that might indicate a recently read tomb?
Sister Ash continues her search.
>>77268Does tripping make an opponent vulnerable to AoOs?
>>77271And, more importantly, if it does, can Silver make an AoO before his turn is over?
[1d20+8 = 19]
Onyx decides he's had enough of this shit, and brings down the ax Halberd.
>>77270Ash has yet to go inside a room. The only distinct magical auras are faint and come from three unicorns, two who seem to levitate or do things and the needy colt
>>77271Maybe when the enemy attempts to get up his next turn, which will be after onyx
>>77272No
>>77274Okay then, can Silver then make an AoO when the Sargent tries to get up?
[1d20+5 = 9]>>77274Sister Ash disregards the minor Transmutation auras from the Unicorns and proceeds into her room, her dog sniffing about the place like a bomb-sniffer. Detect Magick still active.
Guess I'll roll perception.
[1d20+9 = 23]>>77274Wait, the needy colt? Why is he magick?
Rolling Spellcraft to discern his school of his aura.
[1d10+8 = 16]>>77273Onxy discovers that he is damned lucky that this opponent is on the ground
>>77269The scorching ray fails to make contact, as a prone opponent is harder to hit from a distance
>>77276I'll just assume for the sake of argument that Ash bothered to ask a sister which of the dorms was the filly's rather than simply walking into a random dorm room out of ignorance
She sees multiple beds and a couple chests and dressers. Perhaps 8 beds in this room, 4 on each side. Each separate
[1d6 = 4]>>77277It's a light amount of magic that belongs to the colt itself rather than any sort of arcane or divine magic
>>77278Rolling more damage
>>77277The DC for that is 15 plus spell level. If not a spell, it's 15 plus half the caster level
>>77279But what school of magick?
>Transmutation, Illusion, enchantment, etc.
>>77281Supernatural
The colt raises his hooves up to Ash
>>77275>>77262The Sargent tries to stand up
Onyx and Silver have attacks of opportunity
>>77282No school? Hmmmm
Sister Ash narrows her eyes as she makes direct eye contact with the colt for a moment.
Then she turns to one of the Sisters
"Watch this one for now. He has something to hide."
Then she turns and enters the filly's room to continue her search.
[1d20+8 = 13][1d20+8 = 10]>>77283Combat Reflexes: Silver has officially had enough. With a primal war cry, he brings his greatsword down on the Sargent, multiple times.
First two hits included, second two in the next post.
[1d20+8 = 28][1d20+8 = 21]>>77285
>>77284The colt looks basically like this, but with a horn instead of wings and thin green irises. He raises his hooves for a hug
>>77285>>77286Yeah, I don’t think that’s how that works
[1d20+11 = 13]>>77283AoO time
>>77285>>77286What's your INT bonus?
>>77290It's -1, but Combat Reflexes uses Dex, not Int.
>>77290Why'd I say INT? DEX is what I meant
>>77287Sister Ash has already gone into the room, although she glances at the colt suspiciously one more time before she passes the threshold.
Does she sense any auras in the filly's room?
>>77289Those are supposed to be separate attacks of opportunity, provoked by separate events.
>>77285>>77286Combat reflexes lets you make more than one if they provoke more than one, but not like 4 for the same provocation
>>77288Onyx fails to pierce
>>77293If there are any books in that room with questionable content, the content in and of itself is not magical, because she can't sense shit
>>77296Then why the hell did I even take it for?
[1d20+1 = 20]>>77296Well, I guess I'll just have to keep rolling search until I eventually find it..
>>77296>>77297Seriously, when I read it, I honestly thought that, if an opponent provokes an AoO from Silver, then he can make additional attacks.
>>77297It helps if you get dogpiled by multiple enemiy trying to grapple you.
>>77300Yeah, in that case, it was a waste of a feat. I should have gone for Great Cleave.
>>77298Inside a drawer under clothing, there is a booklet...
Incantations to Mar
[1d20+6 = 11]>>77302Rolling knowledge (religion), to see if I recognize it.
>>77299I mean, there's absolutely NOTHING in the feat's description that says that it doesn't work that way! How the hell am I supposed to know!?
>>77303She doesn't know much, except that the name of the god on the cover is a part of the griffon pantheon - a god of death, blood, and evil. The book itself is in a foreign language
>>77304The real question is if Silver keeps that 20 he rolled
>>77306You might as well should just take that first roll and have him miss. Honestly, the amount of fucks I have to give is very nearly reaching 0.
>>77307Wait turns out I don't.
>>77305Sister Ash leaves the room with the book and shows it to Sister Marey, then to the filly.
"Who gave this to you?"
Silver's greatsword pierces through the hardened flesh of the Sargent's neck, goes up through it, and cuts in two the strap of the helmet
The helmet falls off the head of the creature, and the creature falls down to the ground. After a year of war and six months of trotting around a dark cavern, The Sargent knows peace at last
>>77308Well that's disappointing
>>77310"... Griffons at the docks have them"
>>77311Called it. GM wouldn't let you just die. Silver lives on.
>>77311Sister Ash gives out a sigh.
>When you wanted to sleep, but you gotta wake up in the middle of the night to stop kids from summoning devil'sThen she turns to Marey.
"I found what she's been reading."
Then she looks back at the filly
"Do you have anything else to hide?"
>>77311Well, sorry to disappoint.Silver, still in a state of rage, just stands there, panting heavily from exhaustion.
>>77312It probably would have been better now if Silver HAD died. At least he would have gone down fighting, instead of being like this.
>>77313"You found the book, didn't you? You saw us in the forest. What else do you want?"
>>77314Oh, stop whining. If you dislike your character that much, searcha ravine and jump off it to restart. Thankfully you can't put a reason to do thatBut I have
>>77316Nah, he'd just leave everything but his greatsword with the rest of the group and wander off into the forest to seek a warrior's death.
>>77317In Silver's eyes, he just defeated a tough opponent he thought it was invincible. He should feel mighty, not ashamed of his prowess, so you can't do that
>>77318I don't know why, and in all likelihood, Silver would never do that. Still, I, like Silver, have come to the realization that Silver here is good at doing nothing. He can't fight. He doesn't do well on skill check. And at the rate PCs are leveling in this game, he has no chance of getting any better.>>77319He nearly died, and the only reason he managed to finish it off is because Onyx swooped in with his magic kill stick and nearly brought the thing down on his own. He built his entire self-image on the idea that he can fight, and that even in his age he can still fight. But now he realizes he can't.
>>77315Reeeee I accidentally deleted my text again!
Sister Ash sighs, it being too late at night for her to give a pep-talk to a foal about magical philosophy.
"If you wanted to learn magick, you certainly won't find anything of value from a street peddler.." she begins
"And you definitely won't find what you're looking for offering tribute to evil creatures. Magick is ingrained in morality: conjuring evil is always an evil act, and evil can only be used to spread evil.." she continues
"You don't know it yet, but the thing you're looking for won't be found in a book like this."
Explaining things to kids is hard...
>>77320But you dealt the killing blow. Not Onyx. Don't make your character suicidal without reason
>>77320Isn’t that suppose to make you train harder and not give up immediately? It would make sense if he was a level 20 fighter that couldn’t fight, but you are a low level. It’s part of the leveling process to encounter lots of enemies that pose a challenge to not just one player, but all the players’ strength put together.
>>77322Silver's not suicidal just yet, don't worry. But he is definitely in for some troubled times in his life.
>>77323Maybe if Silver was young and he still had his whole life in front of him. But he's 68 years old. The only thing he's known, and believed he was good at, was fighting. To have that taken away from him like this would be devastating.
>>77325>68That's an old hoers.
Did you name him silver after his hair? xP
>>77325It doesn't help that he's surrounded by another fighter who can kill almost anything he gets put up against, a druid who can summon fierce animals at will, a ranger/rouge with two powerful magic revolvers, a sorcerer who can annihilate enemies with magic, and whatever Iron is. Meanwhile, Silver is...just an old stallion with a sword. He's not strong, or fast, or have anything that can really aid him. He's just...there. Taking up space.>>77326Nah. His father wasn't very creative with names, so he named him Silver Sword, because he was working on a silver sword when his son was born, and because his coat back then was remotely close to being silver-colored.
>>77325It’s not like this is natural circumstances. This is a war vet being enhanced with evil magic and unholy powers. This is a new world of fighting, one that will launch Silver into a warrior status into the stratosphere. Being the one to slay the dead? Not even magic and being brought back to life can stop Silver from putting you back in your place. He will be feared all throughout the city.
Alright, immediate battle is over
>>77321The fillie looks like she wants to talk and respond, but keeps her head down
>>77325I can't really criticize since GM is making the path of suicidal Iron oh so tempting, but please. Iron got raped in his sleep and couldn't even fight against it while you just did poorly in a single fight. Give it a break, Silver should had more than one job that was done poorly.
>>77330It’s bad luck to make a mare upset.
>>77331Unless Cauldron is a changeling, it's unlikely
>>7732468 is way past middle age for a creature that ages like a human.
Age affects you ability scores. At that Age, you'd take a -3 penalty to Str, Dex, and Con. You'd get a +2 bonus to Int, Wis, and Char though
>>77331Also, did you call the GM a woman?
>>77328It was one single moderately powerful undead. Nothing for Silver to brag about, and certainly not if he would have died had Onyx not came to his aid.>>77330Mmhmm.
>>77329Sister Ash kneels down on her forehooves, speaking softly.
"There's no need to hold back now.. Say what it is you're feeling."
>>77333At this point, it doesn't surprise me to learn I suck at this game, and suck with creating characters, and just suck with everything in general.
>>77336Come on Onyx, women don't exist here. But it would explain his lack of bant resistance.
>>77332>>77334GM made a mare for you. Just saying that making her out to be a villain was not good luck for your character
>>77335How many ponies know about the undead? Is it common to be encountered in this setting? This isn’t typical DND setting remember
>>77338No one sucks more than me anon. Trust me.
>>77339Hmmmm
>>77338I was pretty damn shit at first too. I haven't gotten much better, but I'm better at fudging it.
>>77340But I was clearly rooting for the dragon pucci so I don't really think it was THE OTP here
>>77340Mmhmm.>>77341>implying>>77342I would definitely challenge that statement.>>77343Still better than I am, apparently.
>>77327Bitch fuckin' please. Silver is one of only two characters to deal
any damage to the ghast at all. Dark Star failed to damage it at all
thanks possibly to an unwillingness to duel wield or double tap. Spark got fucked over with shitty dice rolls, and was also unwilling to shoot it with his laser. The only reason Ash could kill a CR3 so quickly was 1. she had two extremely powerful spells in reserve, and she used both of them in a single fight 2. I let her get a bonus round to try to hit it before rolling initiative.
>>77337"I will not be somepony else's plaything"
>>77332I can't say I understand this post
Anyways, I think I'm gonna go do something else for a bit, clear my mind. Doesn't do my any good being like this.
>>77346You don't really need to. It's just guesswork you don't need to pay attention to.
>>77344You will never get with your crush now. If you let Cauldron down easy, maybe. But now you have to redeem yourself before your karma can balance.
>>77347We all were rooting for you the whole time buddy. Please feel better.
>>77340>How many ponies know about the undead?Knowledge (religion) is thr skill that concerns undead. It's a train only skill, so only Clerics, Adepts, Bards, Wizards, and Expert NPCs would have extensive knowledge of them.
That doesn't mean a normal person can't take 10 on an untrained intelligence check upon seeing a 1 HD zombie and scream "Ahh! It's a zombie!"
>>77351Also, Paladins. Especially Paladins.
Paladin is basically the anti-necro class.
>>77345Nah, I thought Combat Reflexes worked the same way. And don't get me started on melee combat in general
>>77345 and read back through the other RP threads about a certain ranger and see what I mean
>>77349>implying that the GM will not try to emasculate/cut his dick and balls off Iron to tone down his obliviousness and dickishnessComr on Spark, he can't change that much without some justification.
>>77346"Of course you won't." Sister Ash replies
>>77356She lays down on the ground, and tears form in her eyes. Then she lays her head down flat to the ground, ears back
>>77357Sister Ash picks her up and hugs her
"There, there..."
>>77358Is this the first hug she's gotten?
She is definitely crying now
>>77359First hug tonight, 1st one since the Warehouse.
Sister Ash pats her back, cradling her gently
"It's okay now..."
>>77360Crying pretty heavily now
"But it's not"
>>77361"What you did was wrong, but you know that now..." She says, stroking the filly's mane
"We all make mistakes.. What's important is that we learn from them.."
>>77362"They will punish me now... But we still won't be safe"
>>77363Fug! Are we talking like Catholic school punishment? Shid..."I think you could use some extra time to think about what you did for now.. but we all forgive you.."
She pauses for a bit, somewhat unsure how to answer to the last part
"... We're all here to protect you. Everypony here tries their best.. Sometimes things can get hard, but what's important is that we trust each other.." she continues
>>77364>>77364"How could I trust?"
The fillie motions over to a pair of dorm halls that are empty
>>77365..........Darn it, this is really hard...
>>77366That's why it's hard to raise traumatized children, everybody.
I am feeling much better now.
>>77368Glad to hear it buddy.
>>77369So, is everyone still here?
>>77370They should be, though Onyx is always in and out it seems.
>>77368Good, you can still recover. Keep it up, each combat is experience that will be useful for other D&D games.
>>77370I am
>>77371That is definitely the truth.>>77372At least now I know that I will get zero use out of the Combat Reflexes perk.
Seems Ash is preparing a complex and carefully crafted speech to inspire the filly and make her feel safe.
>>77375I'm still trying think of what to say...
>>77375>>77376I'm just waiting for Onyx and Dark Star to get back.
>>77377Sorry, had to step out
>>77378And now we need to wait for Dark Star.
>>77365Sister Ash looks over at the rooms with a solemn expression, before turning back.
"Sometimes things happen that we can't control, but we still need to try our best to help each other when we can." She muses, hoping the filly understands
"... Some if your friends can't be here, but you still have friends with you; the Sisters too. Can you try your best to trust them, for your friends sake?"
>>77380"But why would I, if they could not protect us before?"
>>77379Only combat really needs every player
>>77381Well, yeah, but it would be nice to include him in the conversation, since he was part of the combat and all.
>>77381"Trust isn't something that helps us feel safe.. it helps us stick together despite of danger.." she says, still cradling her
"Try to have faith in your friends, and yourself as well..."
>>77382no bully to Dark Start, but his contribution was shooting you
>>77383She almost smiles at the cradling
"But we were sticking together in the forest"
>>77386"
Without nearly cursing yourselves.." Sister Ash adds
>>77387"I could command it"
>>77388I wonder how she is so confident to be able to control fucking flaming dogs that come from Tartarus itself without consequences.
>>77388This lil' shid just made it bite me. She had no way of telling of she could tell it to stop biting.
And there's no way a ritual that invokes an effect like that doesn't have some kind of horrific consequence
(I'd be broken otherwise)>This is what Sister Ash would be thinking right now as she speaks"But were you completely aware of how that Conjuration worked, or the consequences of it..?" She impores
She continues
"Tell me.. What kind of great and powerful spirit is satisfied with the just the life of injured rabbit, but doesn't want
something more in return..?" She says, her hoof pointing towards the filly's chest
>>77389She had no way of knowing that. The hellhound did what any hellhound would do: attack good-aligned creatures.
The lil' shid is just cocky.
>>77390*It would be broken
>>77390"I thought you knew all of this already?"
>>77392"I knew, but I'm certain you didn't; because if you did, you wouldn't have been so quick to put yourself and your friends in danger." She replies
>>77393"How much do you know about infernal magic?"
She asks
>>77394"Experience." Sister Ash replies flatly
"I've seen enough if it to know that it's nothing for ponies to be fooling around with, let alone foals."
>>77395The fillie does not respond
Ash recalls that the same fillie suspected that Ash would use her and the other foals as ritual sacrifices in dark magic
>>77396Said the pot to the kettle...
"Black magick is no laughing matter.."
"I've seen it destroy ponies, who didn't know any better than to try it themselves."
>>77397".... So is being a helpless foal..."
She says this quietly
>>77397Why don't you give her the idea of summoning good creatures for her? It sounds okay to increase safety.
>>77399The only good-aligned summon I have atm are Satyrs and Giant Eagles. It'll just piss off the nuns.
>>77398"There are better ways to avoid helplessness than playing with shifty dark magick." She says, boldly
"Now enough of this. You're all far past your bedtimes. You'll hear more about it in the morning." She says, as she places the filly down.
>>77400She lowers herself down again
Sister Marery
"This is all quite dreadful, but we have prayer in the morning"
The colt: *hooves extended out* "Hug?"
>>77401Sister Ash stares at the colt for several seconds with narrowed eyes.
"... Sure." She replies
>>77402He seems actually happy
>>77403*colt is hugged*
>>77404Sister Ash isn't one to deny kindness to somepony who asks for it, even if she feels somewhat suspicious.
>>77405*wants more cuddles*
>>77406*Cuddles some more, because why not?*
>>77407*The colt is cuddled more*
The fillie returns to her bed, and sulks
>>77408Sister Ash "places" (tears off and hurls) the colt into his bed, before she returns to her own chamber for some much-needed rest.
Because no one else is going to comment on the fight...
Silver stands over the corpse of the Sargent, greatsword still drawn. He looks and sounds absolutely exhausted from the fight, sweating profusely and breathing heavily. "That...t-that was...that was hell of fight..."
>>77409And thus her midnight escapade ends unceremoniously
>>77410He's dead now. The smell is actually less bad now, although part of The Sargent is covered in vomit
>>77410Wait, he
survived?
>>77411*Sleeps like a brick*
>>77411"What...what even was that thing..." He doesn't want to get much closer to check, all things considered. Though he doesn't have much time to actually consider it before all of the pain, previously pushed out of mind by his anger, hits him all at once like a freight train.
>>77412Yeah, I know, it's a shocker to me too.
>>77410Onyx falls over
"Wake me up when it's time to leave"
>>77417Silver is too busy falling on his side and letting out a long, low wail of complete pain and anguish to be worried about Onyx right now.
>>77418I try to help Silver out of the room.
>>77417"I say it's time to go. We need to head to a doctor."
>>77419Onyx helps spark move Silver
>>77419>>77420He grunts in pain at every movement, as he tries to fight against Spark and Onyx's assistance. "I am...fine! I just...let me get..." He fumbles through his saddlebags as best as he can for his first-aid kit and a healing potion.
[1d20+2 = 10]>>77419>>77420Might as well do a strength check to shake you guys off, I guess.
>>77422Hmmm. Needs opposed
[1d20-1 = 0]>>77422>>77423Opposed
>>77424I think this will hurt.
>>77424Oof. Can Dark Star save the day? Hope Spark doesn't fall somewhere.
>>77424>>77425It's not like he's trying to hurt Spark...
>>77427That's how it is with dice. 1=Death
[1d20+4 = 24]>>77423Opposed you say?
>>77427Silver is very successful in shaking off Shimmer, and very unsuccessful in shaking off Onyx
>>77429Silver still struggles as best as he can against him, to no avail. "I will be fine! Let me go!"
>>77432"Ease up. We need to make sure that thing didn't do anything to you. Those wounds are no joke."
A map of the positions thus far
>>77433>>77434"I feel fine. It was just pain, and pain has already passed." Despite him saying this, he still winces when he puts pressure on the hoof that got bitten. "We have job to do still! Let me patch myself up, then I will be fine to continue on."
>>77435With other bodies added
>>77436"The job will still be done, but it can't be done by anypony at less than peak health. I can't risk you getting hurt worse. If they waited this long for the monsters to be removed, they can afford to wait a little longer. We must be sure you are perfectly fine to continue."
Remember to loot that armor.
>>77438"I'll stop making you lean on my shoulder when one of us is dead"
>>77438"I have medical supplies, I will be fine!"
>>77440Silver glares at Onyx. "I said I will be fine."
>>77439Ew, why would you want armor worn by an undead? The sidearm he had on him sounded more like loot, though.
>>77441If he's got armor, he might be wearing other stuff.
Besides, you can sell it. Worth at least two healing potions; maybe 4.
>>77441"If the medical supplies can heal you to my satisfaction, then you can continue. If not, I am the one that signed the paper to lead the mission, so I will take you to the hospital should it not."
>>77442Silver now starts to genuinely sound upset. "Let. Me. Go."
>>77443>there are places that would buy tattered puked-on flak jacketsOkay, that's definitely a stretch.>>77444He opens up his saddlebags, pulling out six Potions of Cure Light Wounds and one large, high-quality first-aid kit, fully-stocked.
>>77445Now, this is where I have to ask so questions. How many hit points does Silver have left and how many are restored through each of these items?
>>77445"You'll heal yourself first"
>>77446It matters what caster level the potions he bought were.
>>77446Each potion is a 1d8 + whatever caster level the potion maker was, which is somewhere between 1 and 5.>>77447"It is hard to do while you are holding onto me."
>>77446Oh, and Silver has 30 hit points right now, with 50 being his max.
>>77449"Fine, but lean on my shoulder"
>>77451He grumbles a bit. "You know I can stand on my own? I am not that old yet."
>>77450"Alright. Take one of these potions."
>>77453And now we wait for the GM to tell us what the caster level of these potions are.
>>77452"You're injured, and I'm not about to believe I'm the only one sick."
>>77311Dark Star inspects the corpse for anything of interest.
>>77455He raises an eyebrow as he looks at Onyx. "You are sick from that? I know that zombie reeked, but it was not that horrible a smell."
>>77457"So it didn't get you eh?"
>>77456The uniform is fairly damaged and covered in vomit. There is an EDF standard helmet that is dented and a strap cut. He is wearing a mundane flak jacket that is now mildly to moderately damaged.
1 Colt 911 sidearm pistol
1 Colt 911 magazine
1 30 round Limestone box magazine
A letter, folded up
A dog tag
1 grenade
1 knife
>>77458He shakes his head. "No. I think I held up rather well, in that regard. Even if he got me couple times before you came in to help."
>>77459>tfw Silver would have been the one to see what the Sarge had on him, had he not been dragged away by Spark and Onyx
>>77459Dark Star gathers it all and trys to find out where the rest of the stallion gang went.
>>77461They should all be immediately around him in the hallway
>>77461Can you even carry all of that?
>>77425>>77457>>77462>>77458"Hey Colts, the zombie had a colt on him."
>>77459Dark Star inspect the letter
>>77462What's the caster level on the potions Silver bought?>>77464Silver doesn't seem to get the joke. "...He had colt on him?"
>>77467You can expect most potions to be made at minimum caster level, or else they'd cost several times as much.
>>77467Pulls out the m1911 and hoofs it over to silver
"yea this kind of colt"
>>77468>>77469I just want to make sure.
Wait, aren't potions just readied spells that are dormant but a activated when consumed? What's the deal? Why do you need a caster level to drink a placed spell on the potion?
>>77470He takes the pistol and examines it. "Hmm...I have not seen this kind before."
>>77473"yea there was also 1 Colt 911 magazine
1 30 round Limestone box magazine
A letter, folded up
A dog tag
1 grenade
1 knife"
>>77474"Letter? What did letter say?"
>>77475"i havent quite been able to read it yet. its almost like the universe hasnt caught up yet."
>>77472It's slightly more complicated than that.
Potions are single use consumable items. They're different from spell trigger items, like wands, or spell completion items, like scrolls.
A potion is a magic liquid that produces its effect when imbibed. Potions are like spells cast upon the imbiber. The character taking the potion doesn’t get to make any decisions about the effect —the caster who brewed the potion has already done so. The drinker of a potion is both the effective target and the caster of the effect (though the potion indicates the caster level, the drinker still controls the effect).
I g2g. I can say more about items later.
>>77475>>77476It reads
"To my Sweet Autumn Meadows. The war is almost over, and I can feel the dark clouds on the horizon. The Fascist planes fly overhead with impunity, and they harass us now with their artillery. I have seen dark days before, in the early campaign at the Shire. The bugs came in great swarms that blackened the sky and blocked out the Princess’s Sun. The bodies of the dead gave a horrific smell you could smell from miles away, and the Changeling’s machines could be heard from as far. But even in those days it was not hard to keep up the light, because I knew that all of Equestria stood beside me and behind me. There is a very different feeling now. We should have driven the Duke’s minions back into the sea when we had the chance, and now they have pushed us to the sea. It feels as if the light will soon be extinguished.
I hope you made it well to Appleloosia. Please give Dandelion a good Birth Day. I know she is probably not taking the war well, and I regret not being able to be there for her. I wish I could be there with you and hold you again. I would give almost anything for one more night in the desert underneath the jeweled sky with you. But duty calls. Did you know that they promoted me to a lieutenant just last week? I guess I proved your father wrong after all. It seems that Pinkamena herself must have thought that I could do the job. They’ve set me leading a platoon guarding the North suburbs of Baltimare, but the Fascists are trying to break through again. Any time I look up into the sky and see the Princesses’ work, I think of you and Dandelion, and I remember why I am fighting. Why I must fight. But when I see planes, it becomes so very hard to keep faith. We’ll meet again, my Sweet Autumn Meadows, someday, though I don’t know how or when. When we do, I will take you on a waltz through the heavens, like that first dance all those years ago.
With all my love,
Joe Blazer

>>77475"Hey Silver. hit me with your sword."
>>77479"...That does not seem like good idea to me."
>>77473Automatic hoofgun
>>77472Yes, but he means the caster level of the person who made the spell
>>77467Ask the druid dragon lady
>>77478Dark Star looks very saddend by the contents of this letter and a tear rolls down his face as he thinks of his brother and what blue would be feeling if it were him that was turned into a zombie down here and left to rot
>>77480"look, i accidentally shot you. i demand that you slash me with your sword so i can atone for my mistake."
>>77482Iron really inspired you, eh?
>>77481I mean, I would, but she left. Also, she said it was likely a level 1, so I'm just going to go with that."Hmm. Does anypony want this weapon?"
>>77482"...So you are one who shot me."
>>77483yea>>77484Dark Star looks at him apologetically.
"Hit me!"
>>77485"..." He picks up his sword, but instead of trying to hit him, he just prods Star right in the center of his chest with the pommel. "...Try not to shoot me in ass next time. As saying goes, my barn door does not swing that way."
>>77486Hah, GM is not part of the cool colt club. Only cool colts can understand what you pointed out/spoiler]
>>77487"if you do not do it. ill do it myself."
Dark Star pulls out the seeker
>>77489"No! Don't you dare."
>>77489>inb4 crits and shoots himself in the head, instantly killing him.
>>77489"Don't injure yourself for the sake of some imagined debt to a Stalliongradian during the middle of a job..."
>>77489Silver puts a hoof on Dark Star's foreleg to try to stop him. "Look, it is fine. It is not first time I have been shot, and will probably not be last time."
>>77478If Onyx had a hat he would have taken it off at hearing the contents of the letter.
>>77489"I can stab him"
>>77494"Not if you want your cut after this thing."
>>77495"So no one wants to be stabbed?"
>>77496"The monsters down here are just begging for it. Save it for them."
>>77496Silver just sighs. "Nopony in their right mind would want to be stabbed."
>>77494"Oynx, Dragg this body to where the other one is."
>>77493"My honor Demands that i bleed. i made my ally bleed."
>>77492"I Have to."
>>77499"Then do it after we aren't in danger of being the next soldier stuck in this place. This is an order."
>>77494If onyx needs a hat.... There's one now>>77499"Honor comes from strength, power and winning. Not fairness"
>>77499"...How about this? You help make our opponents bleed, and I will consider this 'debt' of honor of yours fulfilled."
>>77499"Gotcha"
>Work horse noises
[1d8+1 = 9]
While waiting for his companions, Silver drinks one of the healing potions.
>>77502"That sounds good to me."
>>77500"i suppose that could work."
>>77501"true.">>77503"Good Horse."
>>77505"Are you patronizing me?"
>>77504And thus recovers 9 health
>>77503I take it this means the corpse of Lieutenant Blazer into the other hallway?
>>77506Dark Star laughs
"Yea i guess."
>>77499Do it, fgt. I dare you.
[1d20+5 = 21][1d8+1 = 8]>>77509After letting the effects of the potion wash over him, he takes one last potion before using his first-aid kit to help bandage himself up.
>>77505"Well, to be honest, Dark Star, I find it difficult to imagine feeling about bad shooting somepony">>77513Bandaged and +8 more health, or 17 recovered in total. He now has 4 potions remaining
>>77513Damn. Maybe Silver should have been some sort of healer.
>>77514"Violence is bad. Mmmmmmm'kay."
>>77514"i generally do not, but shooting an ally makes me feel terrible"
>>77514He feels significantly better than he did before, with the pain almost completely nullified, save for a dull ache in his foreleg.
>>77500"Ahhhh...I feel much better now than I did going into that fight. And I still have some potions left for another one."
>>77515You know, Like a Paladin>>77510It is so
>>77517"Well, I can't say I've ever shot anypony I considered an 'ally'.">>77516"Go hug that fillie harder. She obviously need parents">>77518You know, I'm not sure if he would have a bullet lodged in his ass
>>77519"Maybe I will."
*Hugs filly next chance she gets*
>>77519Shhhhhhhh...it's magic...
>>77519Cannibals cannot be Paladins.
>>77518"Good."
I call out to Onyx "Bartender, are you still feeling sick?"
>>77510"Hey did you strip him of his armor?"
>>77519>>77518>>77524"well Stallion Gang are we ready to move on? or are we going back?"
What time of day is it? how much time has passed?
>>77519"its not a good feeling."
>>77522Carnivore, not cannibal.
>>77526"That's the same thing! Reeeeee!"
>>77526>>77526Don't try to sugarcoat it, sicko
>>77529You're on his side because you licked dead pony ashes. Don't think I am blind to that fact
>>77530"it has your vomit on it. no thanks."
>>77525Silver seems confused as to when they decided on calling themselves the 'Stallion Gang'. "I am up for more. We still have job to do, after all. With luck, we will not have to deal with more of...whatever that thing was."
>>77531REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE i thought it was salt!!
>>77525I'm still rating it as 6PM. Ish.
>>77522True
>>77525"Well, I can't say I can really hep you much on that. Unless you need a Temptress, or just somepony to hold">>77533Silver begins to wonder what created that one Ghast
\r
>>77529*ANGRY KIRIN NOISES*
>>77536It's ok. I'll stroke your mane to make you feel better if you want
>>77533"well who wants to take point?"
>>77535"i need both."
>>77538Why would there be some sort of salt in a metaphorical cemetery?
>>77541Today Argentina Anon will learn about embalming
>>77535All he knows about them is that they're hard as hell to kill unless you manage to trip them. But, as he's already got suspicions about the nature of why there's undead here from almost a century ago, he chalks it up to those suspicions: a lich. "I sure do hope whatever created this thing is long gone."
>>77539"Onyx or I would be best candidates. We are both as tanks, while I have light from horn, and he has better weapon."
>>77543There wouldn't just be salt lying around though.
>>77542Expect a visit from Dark Star at the church
>>77544"let him go first you took quite the beating."
>>77546He nods. "Then I will try my best to keep way lighted from behind him."
>>77541>>77543Like why the fuck are you randomly tasting suspected Embalming chemicals?
>>77542https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OGp9P6QvMjY>>77548More unlit hallway deeper in, and what seems to be a door entrance
>>77543>>77548"lead the way colts. ill be in the back watching our rear."
>>77550He laughs in jest. "Just do not shoot our rears."
>>77549"Hmm...should we try door?"
>>77550"Since you did such of good job of watching Silver's rear>>77552This doorway has a wooden door to it. The door is already open
>>77553He had a mosquito on his flank and he couldn't swat it from where he was standing
>>77555>>77556Walking a little further down, he sees more hallway with more doors
>>77553...Blue must have some really weird fantasies.Silver peeks in past the doorway.
>>77551no u>>77553"well i dont know about that. but i did a great job with yours.">>77552"Ha, no promises."
>>77557Checks the ceiling
>>77559"...Wait, didn't you say you were going to grab chemicals in well room?"
>>77558No, she's just a sarcastic bitch who was making fun of that statement
>>77560there seems to be a formally constructed vaulted ceiling. There is some moisture and cobwebs. Strangely, the air is actually better over this direction
>>77559"You did, but only after I guided you..."
>>77558It seems to be more or less a copy of the last room, with a few differences
There is no lumber in the pit
There are... sounds, shall we say, coming from the pit
There is another booklet on the table
>>77563Dark Star Doesnt let it affect him
>>77563[Dark Star burning intensifies]
>>77562"Before fight with zombie, I thought you said you were going to grab chemicals from well room."
>>77564The sounds make him 'nope' well away from the well, his mind only able to imagine the kind of horrors this mad pony managed to come up with. He does, however, grab the booklet to see if there's any interesting information inside.
>>77567"No that wasnt me that said that. i dont think so."
>>77568"Hmm...must be mistaken, then."
>>77567Inside the booklet, there are other chemical descriptions. It seems to have been written in some sort of cryptic writing - probably a form of shorthand - like the last. It has again a note at the beginning
"Dear Cinnamon Corn,
I have found that an improper application of the arsenic solution onto a corpse without the correct incantations, and sometimes even the same to a live subject, reanimates the corporeal being, but not the full spirit. It leaves a monstrous ghoulish entity with tough skin, and greater strength and endurance than the normal creature. Destroying these would destroy the subject as well, so it is recommended that you keep these subjects restrained until proper incantations may be applied. They can be rather aggressive. Each carries an eternal and voracious appetite for flesh. It was only after great expenditure of cattle that I learned that they don't need flesh to survive.
Yours, Joseph Curwhinny
3/16/764"
>>77570Two more past where Silver went
>>77571>great expenditure of cattleREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
[1d2 = 2]>>77571Rolling to pick on of the 2
>>77573Furthest door down. He walks past a skeleton. This door is open, due to evident damage to the room
>>77572YOU FUCKING ANIMALS!
>>77571"Well, I know where that thing came from..." Against his better judgement, he peaks into the well to see if it's the same kind of undead they just slew, using his horn's light to see just barely see what's down inside.
>>77575What's in the room?
>>77571>>77567"whats it say?"
>>77577Silver can say safely that he was not disappointed
Looking into the well, 3 pairs of yellow eyes stair back at him. He can see the outlines of grey and white corpses. Lips decayed away, bellies open and gone. Ribs exposed, and a dreadful smell
"WHOOOOORG" They howl at him
>>77578A desk and... Is that a mummy's sarcophagus?
>>77579"I...think it detailed how Curwhinny made that thing we just fought..."
>>77580Is a sarcophagus sunder-able?
>>77581"we should probably destroy those notes then."
>>77582It might be valuable.
>>77580"What the buck was that?"
>>77580He almost throws up from the potency of the smell. Almost. "Oh, go 'whorg' yourself."
>>77584"Thought crossed my mine, too, but it might have information we can use to more easily slay these things."
>>77586"More of those things. I do not recommend going anywhere near there. It sticks."
[1d20+19 = 32]>>77583And Onyx sunders the sarcophagus
>>77556>>77587"Spark Can you Burn these things?"
>>77588Onyx needs to make a die roll
>>77588What is that bonus hit chance there?
>>77590"I got only one scorching spell left. Not today unfortunately."
>>77593"you could always pour tipsy on them."
[1d20 = 8]>>77592+4 str, +5 bab, +1 masterwork, +1 weapon focus, +4 improved sunder, and +4 two-hooved weapon.
>>77591I don't like this, but do I hit it?
>>77594"No."
I hold the glass away from you.
>>77595Oh, that wasn't a "hit" die
The halberd hits the object, breaking it, and allowing Onyx to open it
>>77594>>77596Silver pockets the book like the last one.
[1d20+6 = 15]>>77596"Fine."
>>77580Dark Star walks over and Shoots at one of them with Ride the lightning
ive been foregetting my plus one from a feat
>>77597Onyx is pleased at the openable sarcophagus, and opens it
I know that one wasn't, I was just asking if I did hit it."Hey guys! Come check this out"
>>77600"On my way!" Silver rushes over in case something's wrong.
>>77602No? Really? I thought it would be a bear
[3d6 = 13]>>77599I think you are also forgetting your Dex bonus
>>77600>>77601>>77602Onyx opens the somewhat fancy but now broken sarcophagus of Sonambula's Equestria to find that it is... Empty?
>>77604Oh shit
>>77605"Well that's anticlimactic"
>>77605"Sarcophagus? But...where is mummy...?"
>>77606With +11 attack bonus and a fatal supernatural disease no one here can cure....
Be mindful that the contents of that sarcophagus never left the cavern
>>77607"You just had to ask that."
I look behind myself just in case.
>>77605>tfw i have a +9 and i just realized it
I think I'm going to sleep a lot earlier today. I need some thinking about Iron's previous predicament and what does it even mean for the character, if it was even real and not some dream fueled by insecurity. Night all.
>>77611>if it was even real and not some dream fueled by insecurityi really hope it was.
night fren
>>77611Goodnight.
I'm not exactly sure what I can do with my character asleep... But I'm not sleeping yet.
>>77608Fuuuuuuuuuuuug
>>77611Night dude
>>77608Did you create this quest just to kill off some characters?
>>77614i wonder if ash has any dreams?
>>77617That's a good question.
>>77607>>77604On the way to the fourth door, Silver and Dark Star pass a skeleton with a foreleg held up, more modern worker's clothing, a hat, and something by his side.
>>77616Ask
>>77611 if I would do that while excluding his character
>>77618>QuestionThat's not a question. That's a die roll
[1d20 = 6]>>77619Rolling 1d20
>>77619"Hmm? What's this?" Silver leans down to look at what the worker had.
>>77621.. I should have rolled Concentration...
>>77620Is dead
>>77622Workmare's jacket that is very.... very old. Still with woven cotton of the type after industrialism. This is torn around the chest. All flesh is gone, it is only a skelecton. To his right side is a broken lantern. To his left is.... Dynamite? It looks like dynamite. His leg is held up as if shielding, and his back is against the wall, as if he was fending off some enemy while prone on his back. There is a note in the pocket, as well as a slew of other small items that relate to the detonation of dynamite
>>77624Dark star examines the skeleton
>>77624This isn't what Silver expected to find down here...and the state of the skeleton doesn't bode well for them. He takes everything he can related to the dynamite, before reading the note.
Onyx runs like hell to find the others
"MUMMY!"
>>77626>>77625He sees much the same. The jacket reads that it is from the Silver Springs quarry
Note reads:
"Natural cavern found on far north end of mine during blasting. Explore with small team and find holes to blast as is opportune or necessary to dislodge stone or close dangerous tunnels. Airflow expected normal and no pockets of methane suspected, clear for lanterns
Foremare, Granite Grinder
5/11/890"
>>77627"Where? Bartender! Are you ok?"
>>77629"I'm fine now, but I won't be if whatever was in that sarcophagus finds us"
>>77621[Sleeping Kirin noises]
>>77630Silver honestly looks pissed at the false alarm from Onyx, but he only spares a second to glance at him.
>>77628"I wonder what killed you, then..." He checks the dynamite to see if it still looks good.
>>77630"Is it possible that the sarcophagus was empty to begin with?"
>>77633"In a necromancer's lair? Your brain must be working as well as the skeletons' brains"
[1d2+1 = 2]Also, let me think...
>>77632The 'sweating' of nitroglycerin from the dynamite is partially offset by the decay and instability of the explosive. Don't expect it to be nearly as powerful or as safe as new sticks, but when your explosives are made with love and magic, quite a long shelf life is possible. There are six sticks tied together
>>77634The year the quarry was closed
>>77635"And why would a mummy be standing around for Celestia knows how long without going back to it's home?"
>>77634"Yes. I wonder if this Curwhinny's creations killed him, or if he was attacked by mummy."
>>77637"Hell if I know, but I don't like this"
>>77638"maybe Curwhinny made the mummy to."
>>77636Silver decides that they might actually have enough ordinance to deal with this mummy, if they run into it. He gets up and goes into the final room they haven't explored in this part of the structure.
>>77641"Maybe. I do not know about them, either way, so I am in dark about this."
>>77642This room seems to be a bit like the first two, but with far fewer jars, and still a pit
>>77630He's going to be pissed at you for smashing his bed.
>>77644I'll smash his skull if he likes
>>77643He peeks into the well and uses his horn's magic to see if there's any of Curwhinny's creations inside.
>>77645Or they can blow him up with the dynamite Silver just found.
>>77646Dark Skies is by the well just in case anything is down there
>>77647He strains his eyes against the dark to see if it's just like the others.
>>77646That's easy enough to be boring. We gotta use the dynamite to seal the tunnels anyway.
>>77648We all already know just how much Dark Star likes Blue Skies, he doesn't have to go and change his name to hers to make it any more obvious.
>>77649Looks like a smaller model, and less smelly
>>77648>Dark Skies
>>77650I mean, boring is better than getting killed by the mummy.
>>77652>>77651it was a Freudian slip oops
>>77652"Well, that IS interesting..."
>>77655Listen: Silver tries to pinpoint which room the sound is coming from.
[1d20+3 = 16]>>77657My mistake with the dice, again.
[1d20+9 = 15]>>77655i shoot it
>>77659You can't shoot a sound or else you will shoot us again!
>>77658To the right of the hall, and opposite from the fourth room is, more hallway
>>77659Dark Star is able to determine from the sound that from the direction of the growling is not a wall, but more hallway
>>77660>>77662"its coming from the hallway."
>>77663Onyx pokes his head into the hallway
>>77662Silver draws his greatsword, the dynamite, and his Hippo lighter.
>>77663He nods at Star, and motions for them to keep quiet.
[1d20+3 = 20][1d20 = 8]>>77666>>77663>>77660>>77657>>77656When Dark Star shines his light down the hallway, two figures can be seen. Standing and shaped like ponies, they are now of a familiar kind - white hides, no lips, horrific grins, and lidless eyes. These are the ghasts that sired the one they saw earlier, and kept Blazer from his wife and foal. They wear no armor, and one look as if they may have already been shot by some unknown attacker
Roll initiative
[1d20 = 17]>>77668Fuck.
Initiative
[1d20+3 = 17]>>77668Oh shit.
>>77669>>77670>>77672>>77671Order is:
Dark Star
Ghast 1
Spark
Silver
Onyx
Ghast 2
>>77670Remember to do that dual-wield thing with his pistols, and use that feat the GM was talking about.
[1d20+9 = 24]>>77673Dark Star shoots at ghast 1 with ride the lightning
[1d20+7 = 21]>>77675I forgot to make dark Star reload his revolver...The Ghast sees no better target than Dark Star, and charges at him to bite him
Roll a fortitude save for stench
[1d20+4 = 11]>>77677"ugh not again."
[1d8+3 = 4]>>77675>>77677The bite of the evil animal goes through Dark Star's jacket.
Roll for Fortitude save on paralysis
Roll for Fortitude save on Ghoul Fever
>>77679And also paying respects.
>>77682FFFFFFFFFFFFFI probably would have done that as two separate rolls, TBH.
Spark's turn
>>77682Dark Star feels sickened, and strange. He is not paralyzed
>>77684Go get 'em, Spark!
>>77684"I dont Feel so good."
[1d20+3 = 7]>>77684Time to try something new. My weapons have little chance of working so... I go over to Silver and cast Mage Armor on him.
>>77686>inb4 thanos meme
>>77687It is so
>>77685Silver's turn now. +4 AC for Mage armor
>>77690I wonder if that included Blue Skies
>>77691RREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
[1d20+7 = 17]>>77686"Don't die on us just yet, son!"
>>77689Trip: Silver sets his sword to the side to try to trip the attacking ghast and draw its attention away from Dark Star.
>>77692I guess now is an appropriate time for "everything"
[1d20+5 = 21]>>77693Bear in mind that a sword is not a tripping weapon, and also that the ghast in question is so low on HP you probably could have just killed it with one hit
The ghast gets an attack of opportunity
>>77692"Nopony mourned by leaving Nimbusia, I admit I am surprised to think somepony would my leaving Equestria..."
>>77696It would have been useful to know that he was injured beforehand, you know.
>>77697I said it was "already shot" and then Dark Star did 11 damage. Do you want to go through with a trip, or try a more conventional attack?
>>77696Also, wait, isn't the ghast flat-footed?
>>77698You didn't specify which ghast was the one that had been shot. But yes, if he's already been shot, then yes, I'd rather just make a normal attack.
>>77696"Why wouldnt i">>77695yea....
>>77699Nevermind, I'm reading the thing wrong.
>>77699Not that Ghast, no. The other one, yes relative to Silver, but not that one
>>77700Eh, declare the action as you like
[1d20+8 = 19]>>77703Since he's injured already, let's just pretend that Silver instead attacked him directly with his greatsword.
[1d20+6 = 17]
Onyx strikes at the second Ghast, throwing caution to the wind and going full -5 power attack
>>77704the first ghast falls to the ground, dead. -er.
>>77706But first, roll a fortitude save
[1d20+5 = 13]>>77707Fuck fort saves
>>77707Silver is like the meme about Saitama only being able to take out tough opponents because other heroes soften them up beforehand.
[2d20 = 32][1d20+5 = 7]>>77708Onyx is slightly sickened by the smell of the ghast, throwing off his attack, and causing it to fail to penetrate the hide
The Ghast attacks in kind, with tooth and hoof
Also, you have at least another +1 on your fort save from your con bonus, so +6
>>77710>Another plus 1Anon pls, the +5 is with my con.
Also, fuck undead.
>>77708>>77711I mean, at least he doesn't have Ghoul Fever...yet.
>>77708>>77710The ghast fails to bite him, but it does land with its hooves
Roll a fortitude save
Roll a second Fortitude save
Maybe just one fort save
[1d20+5 = 23][1d20+5 = 15]>>77714I fucking hate fort saves at this point
>>77715No paralysis for Onyx.
Dark Star
Spark
Silver
Onyx
Ghast
>>77715Pass and pass
[1d20+9 = 17]>>77717Dark Star Dual Wields his revolvers and shoots
>>77718-2 to attack for the duel wielding
which makes a shot that would have otherwise hit, missRoll a second die for the second gun
[2d6+1 = 8]I can't find any of Spark's posts, but it's his turn
>>77720This one, hits. Seeker of truth has found truth in the corpse of the ghast
>>77721Well, I am being told that I don't use a roll to cast Mage Armor. So I go to Onyx and cast Mage Armor on him.
>>77721is puking a free action?
>>77722Woo hoo, thanks!
AC is now 17
>>77722It is so
>>77723Hmmm.... Yes
>>77724I think 18
>>77681Silver's turn!
You should probably go ahead and roll a fort save
[1d20+8 = 10]>>77725Rolling the save before I actually take my action.
>>77727Well, fuck, this is one stinky ghast.
>>77727And what shall Silver do?
[1d20+8 = 9]>>77725Well, now that we know the outcome of the "save"...Charge: Silver brandishes his greatsword and charges the ghast. He coughs and gags when he gets in its vicinity, throwing off his attack a little.
>>77732Did I do something to anger the dice gods or something?
>>77733F
Idk, what did you do to Atlas?
>>77734I have no idea, but I would gladly take steps to rectify it if I could.
>>77725Dark Star Vomits everywhere
Onyx's turn
>>77733>>77732Well, the good news is that Silver, on his great charge, never makes it far enough to get close enough to be sickened. The bad news is that Silver has tripped on a piece of rubble and is now prone
>>77732>>77733>>77735INB4: Silver throws up when he gets close to the ghast, making him almost hit Onyx.
[1d20+6 = 12]>>77737Stabby stabby with a hint of power attack
>>77737Silver grumbles and spits out a piece of rubble that he almost ate.
>>77737Does this mean Silver gets to roll another Fortitude save, since he never actually got within the ghast's sick-zone?
[2d20 = 21][1d20+5 = 23]>>77736"You need to refill that belly of yours soon Earth Pony?">>77740Uh... Would have hit with no power attack
The ghast targets the only pony near enough to hit: Onyx
>>77740Oh dear... Roll a few more fortitude saves
>>77748Fucking undead man...
[3d20 = 26]>>77748>RollFuck
>RollUn
>RollEach is +5
Dead
>>77750Now the only question is if that 2 counts for Ghoul Fever or for Paralysis...
>>77751Onyx is fucked either way sooooooooo
[1d8+3 = 8][3d4+3 = 11]>>77750The good news. You don't have Ghoul fever. The bad news: you're a little... unmoving, for a few minutes
>>77754I'll start rolling a new character...
>>77754I'll just deposit an F in the chat.
[1d20+9 = 20]>>77748Dark star is gonna Double tap the ghast that attacked oynx with ride the lightning
>>77758Oh shit, nice crit.
[1d20+7 = 22]>>77757>>77758Rolling to confirm
>>77761Well, I think the ghast is at least somewhat deader.
>>77758>>77757The second Ghast is shot right through the skull, and electric shock comes out its eyes as it falls to the ground
>>77763So, it's completely dead?
>>77763"i love the spark in your eyes."
>>77765Onyx would laugh but is slightly paralyzed
>>77765>>77766Vomits everywhere
>>77764That it is, that it is
>>77765Somehow, its eyes look less malign than Blue Skies'
>>77768Silver pushes himself up from the ground, spitting out a couple more pieces of rubble. "Spark, go check up on Onyx if you would, please. Make sure he is okay."
>>77767He looks at the profane amount of vomit Dark Star is spewing out of his mouth and nose. "...I will tend to Star."
>>77769"Right."
I head over to Onyx.
>>77766"You ok bartender?"
[1d8+3 = 4]>>77769Onyx has taken something like 19 damage. Rolling Dark Star's damage
>>77771"He isn't responding guys. Something is wrong."
>>77767Silver trots up to him, trying his best to avoid the rapidly growing puddle of vomit. "This does not look good..." He uses the frog of his hoof to feel the temperature of Dark Star's forehead.
>>77774"Is he still alive?"
>>77775I check his vital signs.
"He can't move, but he seems alive. We have to get out of here."
>>77774vomits more
>>77775Its like touching a boiling pot
PRAISE FOOTBALL!
PRAISE AMERICAN
>>77778>>77779Big F>>77776>>77777Silver actually looks worried, this time around, when he turns to Spark. "I agree. Star is really, really sick. I am surprised he has not passed out from fever already."
>>77782Oh please. Onyx just needs a few healing potions and a couple minutes, and get Dark Star to a sketchy witch doctor before midnight, but he still has many hours of good time left on him
>>77784People who waste quints don't get dates
>>77784Hmmm....
There may still be time
>>77782"I shouldn't have tried to carry us through with this. A whole army couldn't do this."
I try to pull Onyx back along out of the room toward the entrance of this infernal place.
"Please get Dark Star to a hospital and use that badge to get him though the lines."
>>77783There's no real telling how long it will be if we go through with the rest of this quest. It's already in the evening, so the most time he has is maybe five hours.>>77787He nods, and pulls Dark Star onto his own back, being careful of the many pointy thinks he has there. "We can do this, maybe, once we get these two healed. But not before."
>>77785no u
>>77782"Its almost *vomits* time to *vomits* meet blue."
>>77790"I will tell this Blue why you can not come to date. But if you die, you will never get chance to date her, ever."
>>77792"no i dont want to let her down."
>>77793Silver looks at the pony on his back and gives him an odd look. "And you will not let her down if you die?"
>>77795The look Silver gives him tells him otherwise.
>>77787"Listen, Spark, do you know of any good...'alternative' doctors? I am not sure normal hospitals can cure this kind of disease..."
>>77795>>77795Dulce et decorum est pro patria mori"
>>77794Dark Star falls unconscious
and so does his palyer
>>77796"The only one I know of was of in some secret place only his marefriend knows about."
>>77799He looks at the unconscious pony on his back. "And do you think they could help him with this?"
>>77798This disease has an incubation period of one day.
One day. Not five minutes before he falls unconscious
>>77800"Not like we have any other choice. Once I get Onyx out of here, hopefully he can partially walk and we can find her."
>>77801We don't know that, as well as it getting late... we best be finding Blue.
>>77797"Volo mori pro nobis">>77801well then his eyes glaze over while i sleep
>>77801Better find a Healer to treat that though.
>>77802"Then let us go find her." He grabs Dark Star's flashlight and turns it on, pointing it towards the way out. "Come. We do not have time to waste."
>>77805"Right."
>>77801Do I roll strength to drag the bartender along?
>>77806Yes
>>77802By that same logic you don't know that he is infected with anything at all
[1d20-1 = -3]>>77807He was vomiting and we checked for a fever, plus he passed out. Pretty sure that counts as knowing.
Strength roll
>>77807Usually, when someone is throwing up that much, and has the high a fever, they've come down with something.
>>77808This is like my 8th 4
>>77808>>77809Because he is metagaming like you are now
Failed the strength check
>>77812Then rewrite the scene.
So I take it there is a general retreat out of the caverns and away from the scene?
>>77814Only if Dark Star was sick enough to tell, and if Onyx recovers as fast as you say, then probably not.
>>77808"Do you need help with that, or...?"
>>77812>>77813If it bothers you that much, then yes, rewrite the scene. None of us have any idea what the symptoms of Ghoul Fever are, nor do we know how quickly they appear, so setting some of that up for us would be very helpful.>>77814Basically.
>>77813>>77816Damn it I'm not the one who said there was shit loads of vomiting. A character just started vomiting a lot and you all chose to treat that bunch of vomiting more seriously than equal amounts of vomiting by that character and one other on two separate earlier occasions
>>77817Then rewrite the scene. We didn't do anything then.
>>77817>>77818Again, this. We have no problem redoing the scene if you feel like the need is there.
>>77818>>77819I'm just pissy that the whole quest isn't being done in a single take. There's supposed to be something like "4 encounters a day," and this has been 1 minor one and 2 serious ones. I guess there isn't really anything time sensitive about this one though, unlike the communists on the docks
>>77820What were you expecting from a bunch of rookies?Also can't seem to sleep
>>77820>>77821Basically this. None of us really know how to make the most of these encounters, and we don't really know when to try to advance the story along and when to look for details. Just please try to have some patience for a bunch of new players.
>>77820In all likelihood, though, the Dark Star player wasn't even meaning to metagame. He was given a prompt he didn't know what to do with because he didn't know anything about Ghoul Fever, so he just rolled with it.
Alright, so it looks like there is a general withdrawal from the caverns
The Dark Star character absolutely has things to do for the remainder of the night. Onyx, Spark, and Silver... not so much, at least at the moment. I guess it is okay to force an end to day 3 because I want to get Ash, Iron, and the Stallion gang all on the same timeline. However, at the moment I don't really have any planned out quests besides the Silver Springs Quarry and the missing foals (several of them). So don't be surprised if you get a loading-screen when you try to look for all that much else
>>77825I guess I'll ask now if the Iron rape scene was real or a figment of paranoia from the lack of security.
>>77827Ok. Guess he'll see in the morning when he wakes up.
>>77825This time if they try again with the quarry, they can bring Ash along for much-needed healing and magic use.
>>77829But yeah, sleep time.
Hey GM, are guns in this world considered as an exotic weapon category?
>>77832I was wondering the same thing.
>>77832>>77833I guess proficiency would be bestowed based mostly on past experience, but really the main thing I'm looking for is the strength rating to use the heavier guns
>>77834But what classes get them?
>>77834So if I were to make a ranged rouge build, what specialization should I pick if I want to use rifles and don't want a -4 on attack rolls for example?
>>77836I would guess Ranger would have proficiency with most firearms from the start, especially rifles, while Rouges would start with proficiency with sidearms.
>>77838But are they simple, martial, or what?
>>77840They're probably among all three classifications, depending on the type of firearm, I would guess. Break-action rifles and shotguns, and semi-auto pistols and revolvers are likely simple weapons. Bolt-action and semi-auto rifles and shotguns, and SMGs are likely martial weapons. LMGs, MMGs, HMGs, full-auto rifles, and full-auto pistols are likely exotic weapons.
>>77841I would also guess that Rouges start with proficiency with SMGs despite them being a martial weapon, and that firearms with select fire between full-auto and semi-auto change their classification based on which fire mode you use them in. Sort of like how a bastard sword used in one hand is an exotic weapon, but a bastard sword used in two hands is a martial weapon.
>>77841D20 Modern just places the them in 3 profficiencies mostly bas d on size: Personal, Longarm, and heavy. Other gunz are exitoc.
>>77843Personally, I think that oversimplifies it a bit too much, and at the same time defeats the purpose of the Simple, Martial, and Exotic classification system.
Will the GM even respond to this quandry as well as informing of when a character gains XP?
>>77837In D&D mechanics, a sneak attack may only be attempted with a ranged weapon at a distance that does not exceed 30 feet. This means that ranged rogues only really have much value at "point blank" distances. Because the short distance of the rogue sneak attack probably represents the slow travel of a crossbow bolt and how much time a target has to react, it might make sense to increase that distance for a firearm, and to reflect the reality of snipers.
I have Blue Skies, for example, rate as good with pistols and carbine rifles, partly reflective of a 9 Strength score
>>77845No, and after they do things
>>77844Well, that system actually separates guns as a separate class of weapons. In d20, martial weapons become 'archaic' weapons.
The system is somewhat feat-intensive, but characters in d20 may get bonus feats based on starting occupation or background, kind of like how GM said.
>>77846>increase that distanceHow much can it be increased? Are we talking about 12000 feet here or just a small increase of 30 more feet?
Besides that, a rogue can just pick up a carbine and shoot it without any feats to use it averagely, right?
>>77847Except the Simple, Martial, and Exotic system doesn't separate weapons out by size, it does so by ease-of-use. A break-action rifle will be significantly easier for most people to use than a semi-auto rifle, even if they are both longarm weapons. Just like how it's much easier to use a longspear than it is a lance, despite them both being two-handed melee weapons.
>>77849Well, it doesn't, but it's separated basically on training.
Most Personal and Longarm firearms operate more or less the same way, at least as far as aiming and shooting them goes. Mechanics may be different, but the basis really boils down to whether or not the character knows how to aim a handgun/rifle.
>>77850If they were operated the same way, then there's no reason to even
have a classification system.
It's times like this where I really wish I was actually any good with words. I KNOW why I think separating them based on their size just doesn't work, and why it would be much better to separate them based on the older system, but I can't put it into words. It's why I don't like getting into arguments, words just don't come naturally to me, so I always end up at the bottom.
>>77851No two weapons are operated the same way.
Class-based weapon profficiencies are basically blanket feats: a fighter is considered to have martial weapon profficiency in every martial weapon, because he's trained in medieval weapons of war.
>>77852Size isn't really how they're classified. I oversimplified it for the sake of explaining.
But overall, a character who's trained in a general type if firearm, could figure out how to operate others that are held the same way.
>>77853>Most Personal and Longarm firearms operate more or less the same way>No two weapons are operated the same way.So, which is it then? Are revolvers and rifles operated differently, or is there barely any difference between how they're used?
INB4: semantics, but that's not the point.>>77854And someone who is trained in a general type of melee weapon could figure out how to use others that are used in the same way.
>>77855No two weapons operate *exactly* the same way, but having profficiency in a class of similar weapons means knowing the basics to operate all of them.
>And someone who is trained in a general type of melee weapon could figure out how to use others that are used in the same way.That's what I said.
Well, I'll have smol nap for today. Please no bully, Mr GM fellow.
>>77856Then if you could figure out how to use any kind of weapon that is used similarly to another kind of weapon you already know how to use, then why would you still take a penalty to attack rolls for using a lance if you already know how to use a longspear, just because your class started with only simple weapon proficiency? Why would they have to be classified differently if they are both piercing, two-handed weapons that are used the same way?
>>77846>after they do things
>Like 20 posts of meta-discussion about weapons none of you actually even want to use anyways
>>77855>Are revolvers and rifles operated differentlyyes,because one is a handgun while the other is a long arm.
>>77859M8, idk. The categorization of weapons is based largely on training; but more importantly, it's meant to separate classes that are meant for combat from the other classes, to balance the game. Rogue only get a handful of martial weapons, because if they got any more they'd be encroaching on the Ranger's niche.
Simple Weapons are generally simple to use: they amount to stabbing creatures or just smacking them. All creatures with humanoid, giant, outsider or fey hit dice get them. All classes get them, with the exception of Monks, Wizards and Druids who trained up until complex age in a specific style of combat.
Martial weapons are weapons of war: they require a deal of training to use. Only the classes that specialize in combat get them: Rangers, Paladins, Fighters, Barbarians and psychic warriors.
Overall, deciding factor is what classes are meant to use kind of weapons, and what classes should need extra feats to gain them.
>>77861Sorry...
>>77864Is there really any need, then, to create a brand new classification system just for firearms, while pushing all melee weapons into a single category? Why not just mix them in with the existing system?
>>77861Fine, I'll stop now.
>>77865Idk, m8. I just think the Personal, Longarm, and Heavy classifications make sense for gunz.
It's not really any of my concern though. Last I've recalled, I don't think I've ever even made a single attack roll against a creature using a weapon.
>>77867I did throw that one fireball as a touch attack though... Not sure why I did that...
I was considering if I wanted to take Vow of Nonviolence, but idk. I've just been holding my character to exalted restrictions for the sake of possibly qualifying for things when I actually decide what feats I have.
>>77868Ash still doesn't have any feats?
>>77869Well, any """normal""" druid would be best off taking Augment Summoning at this level, but idkehat I want to pick.
>>77870I imagine it would be a lot simpler to pick if she was a Cleric.
>>77871Sister Ash definitely has the personality to make a good Cleric, but I kind of like the foreign witch-like sage gig. She enjoys learning about ponies, observing them to get a broader understanding of divinity, rather than already having a pact with a particular deity.
That and I didn't really know how Clerics would work in Equestria, and being a Cleric would imply having already been a member if Equestrian clergy, which I did not know. Playing Sister Ash, as a foreign mystic who's learning about Equestrian religion makes it simpler for me to just go about rolling comprehension checks as the world is developed.
I can't say that playing a Cleric wouldn't be easier though. Clerics have far better spellcasting ability, more spells per day, better healing and a selection of spells that work better for utility and mesh more smoothly with a modern setting. Some of the Druid class features feel slightly obsolete in a modetn world, but it's not like I made Sister Ash with mechanical power in mind (otherwise, I'd take Augment Summoning without hesitation).
I made her as a Druid, and she doesn't really make sense as anything but a druid. She's generally neutral in every sense but her preference for moral virtue; her knowedge and magick are archaic and mystical; she's wholeheartedly devout, but doesn't have a specific covenant; she spurns material possessions, wealth, power, and the
luxuries of the modern world, believing simplicity and abstainance being part of the path to godliness. All-in-all, she's best as Druid, because that's hoelw I made her
Also, Clerics require holy symbols to cast their spells, and that would count as a possession and thus break the Ascetic's code which I really, really want to follow, since it was basically the basis for her character upon creation.
>>77872>spoilerWell, that seems like it would break the entire function of being a Cleric.
>>77861I'm kinda scared to wake up ingame tbh
>>77874I still don't know if the dog that raped Iron was a male or female.
>>77876Well, he's gonna be sore in the morning.
>>77877D-don't say that, there's still a chance that he dreamed it all up
>>77878im with you, i want it to be a dream to.
>>77878If that's the kind of dreams he's having now, then I think Iron has more issues than just having a sore asshole from being anally raped by a large dog.
>>77880He was paranoid from the lack of stallions guarding the abbey, as well as it could be a revenge plot through dream manipulation by one of the mares who spiked him with something when he was asleep, He has options
>>77873Unless you would be willing to put a wooden holy symbol in the place of the single, non-masterwork weapon an ascetic would carry(usually a staff, club or sling since they cost 0 gp), but Clerics are really much better off just wearing full magical armor and weilding weapons they themselves crafted, they're the only class that can Sanctify Relics afterall.
Sister Ash carries a broom (Quarterstaff), because it makes her look good. At the warehouse, she brought a homemade shield.
Ascetiscism feature was mostly meant to apply to Druids and Monks. Druids are able to cast without holy Symbols, but they'd still have to pay experience points in the place of costly spell components, or otherwise beg for the materials if they needed to cast a costly spell (bringing people back from the dead is expensive). Being an Ascetic druid just feels holier though, because you're in essence trying to live as 'naturally' as possible. Monks use weapons and armor anyway, so the Vow actually helps them break their ironic dependency on wonderous-item equiptment; and being a self-punishing Ascetic is pretty Buddha-tier, even if you have to miss out on all of cool loot rolls. It could also them get spells by taking the Apostle of Peace PrC, which is easier for them since Vow of Nonviolence is easier to follow when your primary form of attack does nonlethal damage.
However, being an ascetic also makes you somewhat more dependant on your party members for things that can be more easily accessed via items, like planar travel, ability buffs in combat, healing, penetrating specific damage reduction or resisting harmful status ailments and death effects. It's good for a support-based character though.
>>77881>He was paranoid from the lack of stallions guarding the abbeyGiggity.
>>77884I'll keep it in mind for the next dungeon.
>>77885Always remember to respect the dungeon.
>>77886Kinda did the opposite of that when we went to the hideout, actually.
>>77884Unfortunately, because Silver doesn't have any skill points, and because he has a -1 Int modifier, he is unable to check for secret doors or traps at all, so he can't respect the dungeon.
>>77888You can punch walls to open the paths yourself.
>>77887>>77887How so?
>>77888If you don't have a Rogue, send in the guy with the most hit Points to walk through all if the traps.
Barbarians especially are great at it.
>>77889Also this.
Carry an Adamantine hammer, just for that.
>>77890Well, we kinda went in blind without any info apart that it was a gang hideout. Isn't that the opposite of the first panel of the comic?
>>77888TBH, I'm not a big fan of the RPG mechanic where Intelligence or some other equivalent is the universal determinant for how many skill points you have. It always makes that one ability infinitely more valuable than any other ability, even if it's not essential to your class.>>77890Seems more like good way to waste potions, time, and/or get yourself killed.
>>77891Unfortunately, Silver is kinda broke, and the party already got their big payout from the job at the pier, so I doubt he'll ever end up with enough money to buy anything like that.
>>77893Cheer up. The GM will ensure that there's good pay at the end of a valiant quest to obtain loot.
>>77894Are you sure? It was a LOT of money you guys got at the end of that one mission, and that's only because you all decided to board and loot the boat that was at the docks.
>>77895Heck, there may be 20 gold pieces or 5 artifacts that are double the value of all 10 gold bricks.
>>77896I highly doubt that, but whatever.
>>77892The most preparation I could muster was summoning a dog and bringing a tower shield, which turned out to be very helpful.
I considered taking a day or two to try to gather info, but then I figured that sister Ash would be in a hurry, since she didn't know what was happening to the children as she waited. In the end, she wasn't able to save half of them (yet).
>>77893>>77895You'll get more shekels later. That's the best part of the dungeon crawl
(unless you're an Ascetic and can't use items).I'm sure you'll get plenty of chances to equipt your character.
>>77896Artifacts are a bigger deal than you'd think.
Magick items though.
>>77875So very male
>>77880This
>>77881But sleeping on the ground in an area he knows very large packs of very large wolves is great
>>77883Giggity
>>77887All of the thises
>>77888>>77893I very explicitly told you that investing one of your superfluous awesome stats that you didn't need for anything practical would be best spent in Intelligence. But noooo, you wanted to make Int the dump stat, and place the fourth awesome stat in wisdom or charisma or some other ability that isn't very useful to fighters
>>77898Either way, Silver is a few steps behind everyone in terms of equipment already. The best he has is a basic steel greatsword and a normal "breastplate".
>>77896Plus we
did kinda piss off the GM by leaving the tunnels prematurely, so I don't expect many favors in terms of rewards from him for a while.
>>77899Well, he wasn't raped when he slept on the outskirts. Besides, what rapist goes to an all female abbey filled with foals and fucks the one stallion that was staying there for the night?
>>77899>I very explicitly told you that investing one of your superfluous awesome stats that you didn't need for anything practical would be best spent in Intelligence. But noooo, you wanted to make Int the dump stat, and place the fourth awesome stat in wisdom or charisma or some other ability that isn't very useful to fightersI didn't know, I'm new to the game. At the same time, there were other players telling me that what I had was fine, so I didn't think much of it.
>>77899Wolves are our friends though.
>*Gets eaten*>>77900Oh, don't be a worrywort. Loot rolls and treasure finds are a normal part of the game. You'll get stuff.
>>77903>rollsSilver is doomed to forever be poor, then.
>>77901It might have been a nightmare
(or a literal nightmare/nighthag), which would explain why he was paralyzed during most of the ordeal.
>>77905True. It's the antithesis of Ash. An evil druid.
>>77901really activates those oats
>>77904Rolls are the best part. That's the cool stuff you get in addition to standard treasure.
Or, you could go ahead and donate all of your worldly possessions and take on a life of service to the poor
>>77908>Rolls are the best partIf I had a measure of luck, sure.
>>77908It's ok. You can donate them to me. *Strokes mane*
>>77901While I hate to give any kind of spoilers, I will say this: I had three entirely different and plausible scenarios for roughly the same event when I rolled for the path
>>77906>Evil druid>Giving you nightmaresKek, I could envision it.
>>77912After all, with Princess Luna incapacitated, who knows what kind of rat bastards could be screwing with everyone's dreams.
>>77911I'll hazard a guess that it was planned either by Skies (Most likely to do this, since I dissed hard on her non-existent tribe), Cauldron. (Less likely since she already had her fill of revenge) and a changeling conspiracy on the Abbey. (Which admittedly is kinda cool) Other options are what Ash's player said and it was all a dream type of deal.
>>77909You could always swear off wealth and become a hermit, if you want.
>>77914>Non-existent tribeAs compared to Iron's unnamed and entirely existing tribe?
>>77915I mean, would Silver do it? Probably not. He's old, but he still does like money. It helps him buy things.
Hey, have the timelines mostly synched up yet?
I've got a couple hours before I get dragged off to a cocktail party..
>>77916Well, you explicitly said her tribe was wiped out by griffons. Your words, not mine.
>>77915I think he would not be able to come back to his tribe. However, it's tempting.
>>77919Uprooted by social progressives
>>77918No. At minimum we need Dark Star to do.... something. Because he needs a witch doctor and has a date
>>77921Still, pretty sure she doesn't feel like her tribe exists by how far it may have changed by the uprooting.
>>77921I don't suppose there would be the location of a witch doctor on Silver's map.
>>77923Abbeys should cure those kinds of things.
I think.
>>77924>>77923Churches are a rational place to go to when dealing with undead.
Also, buy some holy water. Good temples sell it at a non-profit price.
>>779251.) What does it even do?
2.) How much does it cost?
>>77923"take me to the orphanage where that Nun is."
>>77927I'm not even sure we can do that without breaking the timeline...again...
>>77928He only needs Sister Mary- I mean Marey or any other sister to cure him.
>>77926It's a splash weapon: it damages undead like acid.
Market price is 25 gp.
Not how I was hoping it would go, but whatever>>77928Nah, I'll just have different NPCs respond>>77923There is not
>>77931..Anything I should do to fix it?
>>77927Silver opens his map, not really understanding why Star would want Silver to bring him to an orphanage, but he decides to go along with it anyways. "...You will have to be more specific? You have name of this...orphanage?"
>>77930In that case, Silver can actually afford a few bottles.
>>77932It's >>77933Baltimare seems to only operate at most three orphanages, and one seems to have closed down. What remains are the Batlimare Public Home for the Poor, and the Pransiscan Mendicant Order Orphanage
>>77933"take me to the parish church."
>>77934>>77935Not sure of either place, he takes a second look at the map for...pretty much any place Star just described.
Can I just say that Dark Star is being extraordinarily unhelpful towards Silver, right now.
>>77936The Parish is North Baltimare and North Point. There are several churches, the lead structure being the Cathedral of Saint Eligius. As buildings in Baltimare go, this one is not that far away, though still a good number of blocks
>>77938"This one is close. We will go there." He closes up his map and hurries on towards the Cathedral as fast as he can.
>>77939>>77927The make their way down the closed caverns. As the reach the first basement again, it occurs to them that the slab had best be closed. They leave up this, and when they get to great tracts of dirt and construction equipment that was once a cursed farm, they see that the sun is fully set. The light of the moon casts down, and reflects on exposed sand
>>77941And BAM, ANOTHER ZOMBIE ENCOUNTER
>>77941"It is late..." He continues to make his way towards the Cathedral, using his map to guide him.
>>77942Whose side are you on?
>>77943The native sideYes, Ash is included
>>77943Were it so easy. The Cathedral is in what could be called walking distance for an able pony, but if Dark Star needs to be dragged there... This isn't really doable
>>77945>>77946"I do not know..." He looks in front of him, already getting tired from having to carry Dark Star. "Listen, can you walk, if I help you? I can not carry you whole way to Cathedral like this."
>>77947"i think so."
Stands up
>>77948Silver helps him to lean up against his body for support. "Alright, is this doable for you?"
>>77947>>77948When they arrive at the edge of the property, they see a certain figure fly in around the fence
>>77950It's a bird, it's a biplane.
NO. It's Superskies!
>>77951I think Onyx was just left inside the cavern, or something. I'm not sure if his Halberd still has that glowing charm on it or not
>>77950Silver lights up his horn to try to see who the figure is.
>>77953I mean, Spark should still be with him.
>>77954Looks like the mare who accused him of being a communist the day before
"I was told an earth pony named 'Dark Star' would be here"
>>77956>>77955Now's your chance. Pee on her to show dominance!
>>77949>>77950"Yea im here."
>>77956Silver motions to the pony he's helping to walk. "We were helping stallion named Shimmering Spark clear out undead from quarry. Some strange kind of zombie bit him. He is not well."
>>77957Silver, unfortunately for you, does not have a piss fetish.
>>77959>>77958She is entirely surprised by this statement
"... What? Dark Star, are you okay?"
>>77960Well, he already eats meat so you can't really pretend he can't get into more degeneracy
>>77961"i dont know."
>>77959"Silver do you think what happend to them will happen to me?"
>>77962I mean, watersports is a pretty degenerate fetish...
>>77963"That will not happen, I will make sure of it. We will get you help."
>>77964And eating meat as a hervibore isn't?
>>77963>>77965"He was bitten by a
Zombie?"
>>77967"i dont know what it was. but.. it wasnt living."
>>77969>>77953Spark was bringing him out
>>77966Horses are actually omnivores.>>77967"Maybe. It was like no kind of zombie I have ever seen before. It was strong, very strong. And it smelled worse than death itself. Some necromancer's hair-brained experiments, gone awry."
>>77969This. Is so. Sad. Can we get a rescue team to save Onyx?
>>77971Because they may eat insects. Not mammals. You can't escape judgement for your natural sins
>>77969Well, the paralysis only lasts about 5 minutes. Be aware that Onyx has lost like 19 health
>>77971"Uh... I take it he is
not available for any sort of movie"
And stop trying to justify your bad behavior
>>77974"No,No of course we can still see a movie."
>>77973No, actually, horses can and will eat small mammals and birds if they get close enough. They just don't usually because there's a much more readily available source of food for them to eat, usually.>>77974>>77975Silver gives Dark Star that look again. "Unless you want to have zombie coltfriend, I would recommend postponing."
>>77974Reeeeeee, but I like meat!
>>7797421 to go
>>77972Attention all pony rpg-ers Onyx need your help...
>>77976You need to roll a bluff check to see if I believe you, because horses don't have canines, meaning they are not suited to pierce meat at all.
>>77976And silver has the whole Argiculture of half Equestria as readily available. He's not starving in Stalliongrad"Well, 'coltfriend' is a bit strong. We are acquaintances"
>>77975"What were you doing that got you bit by a zombie?"
>>77980"...You are one strange stallion..."
>>77982"Way he goes on about you? One would think you were worth more than all gold and artefacts in Equestria. Seems just bit grandiose for mere 'acquaintances'."
>>77982Well, 'coltfriend' is a bit strong. We are acquaintance
Dark star stares off in the distance for a few minutes
>What were you doing that got you bit by a zombie?"i got rushed."
>>77982"Aw come on, Skies, you really went in there when Star kissed you. I bet you fucked him after we split up."
>>77986Well, until they're dead. Then they're just meat.
>>77984"You okay there buddy?" She places a hoof on his, and then strokes his mane
"What were you doing when you were rushed? Urban spelunking?"
>>77983"
What has he been saying?"
>>77987I like the way you think
>>77988"That you were most wonderful wonderful mare in world."
>>77989>>77987But what if they are salt?
>>77990She pulls back, blushes and smiles
"He must be speaking of a different mare"
>>77988"I shot one in the head and got rushed by the other one."
>>77991"Nah i was talking about you."
>>77992Too late. Onyx died in your forelegs. Should've been faster.
>>77991No thanks, I'm on a low-sodium diet.>>77991>>77993He throws another look in Dark Star's direction. "Which is why I recommend you go and take care of your stallion, here. Love is beautiful thing, I do not wish to see it halted so soon."
>>77994Damn it.
>>77996Alas... he was the best crystal horse.
>>77996I kid. He's fine, just so sore he can't move.
>>77993"But what were you doing that placed you within shooting distance of zombies? Those are hyper-rare, and I am sure you didn't find one just walking down the street"
She blushes a bit, curls in her tail and moves her rear legs together
>>77995"What do you want me to do? I don't understand what the hell is wrong with him. You said something about zombies"
>>77998>Dead looking horse noises
>>77996>>77997>>78002Onyx wasn't dead, just paralyzed for 5 minutes
>>77999"We were exploring the old curwhinny farm. and we went in the basement. its like a dugeon down there. you're pretty cute when you blush."
>>78003I think they know that. You've already stated he was alive and all.
>>77999"He needs to see doctor, or priest, or somepony who knows how to cure diseases that turn you into zombies."
[1d20-1 = -1]>>78001>>78003Alright.
>>78002I try to drag him to safety again with my useless strength check.
>>78007Whoopsie. You dropped Onyx in the pit.
>>78007Spark is not a very strong pony.
>>78004"I see..."
She crosses her forelegs now, and continues to blush
>>78006"Did you have a plan?"
>>78012Dark Star Strokes her mane
>>78013She almost purrs
"What do you need?"
>>78012"There is nearby Cathedral. They should be able to cure diseases of this nature."
>>78013Nice one, mares always like their strokes.
>>78015"You trust those Celestia worshipers to be able to help him?"
>>78014"to get to the priest at the parish church"
>>78017"the priest Gave me food when i was younger. Hes a good stallion."
>>78017He nods. "It is what they do."
>>78020It's time to show Spark's evilness and shoot Onyx when he's down. Cuz he greedy boi
[1d20-1 = -11]>>78020I try again. Hopefully the undead aren't chasing us.
>>78018>>78019She is more than a little skeptical
"Alright....
I guess I will follow along, but I can't say I can help much besides being another body"
>>78021Even if I was evil, my gun wouldn't work with these rolls.
>>78025Hooray!
>>78024Make her suck the fecer through his dick. That'll help.
>>78024>>78018"It is good you will be with him. He will need emotional support from ponies he cares about." And with that, Silver continues to help Dark Star walk towards the Cathedral. "Do not worry, Star. You have wonderful mare you love to look after you while they help cure this affliction from you."
>>78029"im the lucky stallion in the world."
>>78031"That you are, my friend."
>>78031Not really. You got infected with zombid AIDS. I doubt that's lucky.
>>78036I guess that's true.
>>78029>>78030The Cathedral is perhaps mile away. When they approach they can see the building. It is a towering neo-gothic structure with two spires, either with a number of ornate decorations on it, and a white granite exterior. Fairly tall, it's the most ornate building Silver has seen at least since City Hall
>>78038Silver whistles at the sight of the impressive structure. "And I thought City Hall was beautiful building..."
>>78031"Come on, not much further, now."
>>78039It's not as impressive as any of several (former) Cathedrals in Saint Petershoof, but they are not lacking for style. The doors are vaulted in shape, 15 feet tall, and big and thick wood. They have metal knockers. There is a light on to the left side
>>78039"good im getting tired."
>>78040Figuring there's no real reason to try to open the doors when there's somepony already inside, he tries the knocker while calling through the door. "Hello! My friend, he is in need of assistance! He is ill!"
>>78042There is no immediate response from the inside
Blue comments "Damned Celestia worshipers. They don't even realize that by sending their love to the captive princess, they are feeding Changelings"
>>78043I'll just jot this down when I go for changelinghood
>>78045>Inb4 the knock puts Dark Star prone ans makes him vomit.
>>78045>>78043No immediate response
Is this the same Cathedral I prayed at?
[1d20+2 = 8]>>78043He turns to Blue. "You must not be from Equestria. It is...difficult for us to just leave Her behind. She was like mother to Equestria. To all of us. Our shining beacon in times of darkness. We would all look to sun in sky and know that we were safe. We were in Her embrace. With Changelings in West, and Black Hooves in East? We Equestrians have to turn to Her even more. We need that hope She provides, or we will be lost."
>>78047Strength: Growing impatient, Silver tries to open the doors himself.
>>78049Reeeee no wreck church door!
>>78049>She was like mother to Equestria.It would also be kind of selfish to just give up on her altogether, just because she's in a position where she can't help you.
>>78051While true, she did lose against foreign forces in this universe. That dwindles passion for the god.
>>78049"Celestia didnt help me when i needed her the most. thats why i turned to the black hooves. they arent so bad.""
>>78053You wanna get cured or not?
I'm going to have to go soon.
>>78042>>78049"You are right. I am
not from Equestria. But I do know about your princess. I know how she was defeated by Chrysalis when she came in with a
single hive the first time. I know about how she could not hold back Tirek or the Storm King or any number of other threats, and how she contracted out safety to a small but competent band of heroes. And that is a decent strategy... If your enemies are few in number or have a keystone to them. But when they come in the millions, numbers so great they block out your precious sun, and when they come with new machines of war, you need an entire nation to defend. And Celestia, for all you exalt her and place her upon a pedestal, has failed to raise her pony subjects up to the same level. Because when you all consider yourselves to be lambs in a flock, and rely on somepony else to protect you, you neglect to learn how to protect yourselves. Celestia's reign bred complacency. It bred a spirit of servitude. The ponies did not learn how to unite and fight as a nation. And that is why they failed, because for all of the celebration of the strength of harmony, they neglected the 'armonia' that forms a pony's bond to their countrymare, and service to the nation.
And their faith in harmony with other races... guh!" She gives a sign of disgust. "They cared more for Yaks, Griffons, and even Changelings than they did for their own poor ponies on the Griffonian continent. Tell me, have you ever heard of the ponies of Iksegard? No? You never shall, because they don't exist anymore. While your queen was eating cake and being nice to Griffons, the 'Reformisten' slaughtered them all. The Duke, and the Duke alone, tried to avenge the ponies of the ancient eastern marchlands. And when he did, Celestia
declared war on him. Not on any of the aggressive griffons, but on her own former subjects.
She attacked first. Have you heard of Manebourn? How it was sacked by Aquelian revolutionaries? Equestrian soliders among them? Some 'protector of ponykind' she used to be. And when the Changelings came in their swarms, the yaks and griffons just stood there and watched.
But all of this, really, is besides the point. If that queen were even a tenth as honorable as you want to believe she is, she is still a Changeling captive. And you may be ignorant of how that works, but I am not. When you send your love or faith to her, the Changelings take their little share of it
So whether you like him or not, only the Duke remains to claim the mantle of the protector of ponykind"
The door opens
>>78053Blue Skies strokes his mane
"That's the spirit"
>>78050Oh please, it's unlocked
\r
>>78053While Iron is indeed a dick, he would pay respect when he is in need of help.
>>78057Also this.
When in Rome.
>>78056Iron would respect the shit outta that wall of text.
>>78056He chuckles darkly as the doors swing open. His thoughts travel back to the bodies they found earlier, those of the EDF units, injured, killed, or worse when New Mareland invaded. "You are funny. Where I come from, protectors do not shoot ponies they claim to protect." He quiets down when he steps into the Cathedral and starts to look for somepony to help Dark Star.
>>78060No. sh was in a chapel at the monestary. It was mentioned that the priestess was
>>78059If only he had been there for it
>>78061"You mean they don't shoot ponies in Stalliongrad? I wouldn't be so sure. Manebourn was a New Mareland city. A
Dominion city just a few years before. One of your empresses's protectorates. It was sacked, and the Ponies who sacked it were very much minions of your princess. It is thanks to the NMAC and the Airforce they did not kill more. Equestria attacked
first. Don't hate us for being strong enough to win a defensive war, and saving half Equestria from being Changeling slaves in the process"
As he goes in, he sees grand lines of pews, and a huge vaulted ceiling. There are ornaments of many kinds around. The lancet windows of the church have stained glass images, many of them concerning the Elements of Harmony.
One of the windows is boarded up with wood. It must have shattered or come loose from the vibrations of artillery.
\r
>>78061>>78053Blue Skies stays outside
As Silver goes further in, a yellow Earth pony runs from a door to his left and tries to great Silver. She is wearing religious gard, and she can be reasonably identified as a priestess
"Hello, I heard you knocking. My name is Priestess Sundew. What can I do for you at this hour?"
>>78063Sundew? You mean Sunny D, right?
>>78062He stays silent, not wanting to argue over politics, and especially not wanting to argue over politics in a place of worship like this.
Internally, he fumes at the damage done this Holy place.
>>78063Silver is very much thankful that Blue stayed outside. "Priestess...my friend, he is very ill. We were clearing undead, in tunnels underneath Curwhinny Farm. One of them, some kind of powerful zombie, bit my friend. I fear he may turn into one of those monstrosities. I brought him here as soon as I was able, in hope you might be able to cure him of his affliction."
>>78063>>78065"A-Am i gonna be okay?"
>>78065Blue Skies preemptively answers the concerns about the broken window. "I assure you that if the artillery corp had ever
intended to target or damage this structure or anything near it, there would be so much more damage than a single dislodged window"
>>78065Sundew's expression changes from jovial and friendly to a sort of horror
"I had heard rumors about the Curwhinny farm when I was a fillie. Tell me again, what bit him?"
She is concerned
>>78067"I don't know, I think we have to call in our expert on the undead"
>>78068"Again, it was like zombie, but...none like I had ever seen before. It was strong, and resilient, and fast. Some walking, soulless corpse that was once pony, created by Curwhinny long ago, that had managed to escape. And it...reeked, worse than death. Another one of my friends, was attacked, and it paralyzed him completely. There was a former member of EDF, there from when New Mareland attacked...those things had turned him into one of them."
>>78069"Is that what infected him? Some sort of soldier?"
>>78070"Not soldier, but same things as him, ones who turned soldier into zombie...like them...I do not have name for them, I am afraid.
GM was abducted to the movies again. Typical GM stuff.
>>78073I'm wondering if I'd be able to play some more HoI4 before he comes back.
>>78074That game usually takes ages to play. I've seen many let's play about it, and they take a long while.
>>78071>>78071"Oh dear... I'm afraid this goes beyond my area of expertise. Let me call in Father Maren. He is our parish's expert on such matters. It's a good thing you came to the mother church here, as he generally resides here"
She canters off towards a door in the back and the left, going in, and coming out some two minutes later
"He is coming." After her follows an old grey Unicorn stallion with darker black robes and a great sun embroidered on it, black mane, and an eye that is glassed over in a cataract. Despite his black mane, he has the voice of an older stallion
"They tell me you've had some dealings with the undead on the old Curwhinny property" he says
"Pardon me, my name is Father Lancaster Maren. I stay by my books mostly."
>>78078>>78077For Dark Star and Silver? Like 7:00 to 7:30 ish. For Iron and Ash? Like 1:00 AM
Noted.
*Sleeps peacefully*
>>78081I wish I were half-decent at drawing ponies, so I could give her an actual appearance
>>78082You don't really need to unless you want me to die of diabetes. A big description should do the job. In my case it's super easy: Iron is a big, buff pony. He has wavy unkempt hair and a bushy short tail. Her coat is a light shade of grey, his mane shares some of the coat's color as well as a small shade of green. His eyes are brownish, leaning to red. There are small battle scars around his body, showing previous battle before he ventured out.
You keep at it like that and soon you'll see her in your mind.Or do what >>78083 said
>>78084... The hardest part has been picking an original color scheme...
>>78085Then again, I haven't even revealed her name...>tfw empty character
>>78085>original color schemeIt's not really needed to acheive cuteness. Sadly, you only have so many colors to choose from and it may be similar to kirin in the show. A good way to establish color schemes is to use a color wheel, then remove all color from a kirin model and see if you like it. I used hex codes to perectly match the color I wanted for Iron. That's how I made it. Heck, I could pick some colors for you if you allow me.
>>78087Maybe. It'd probably be better than anything I'd pick.
I considered golden/bronze scales, but that didn't look good with any color but pale gray/white.
>>78088Alright, I'll see which other colors to mix with bronze-like, gold-like colors. Give me a minute. I'll compare some colors for a bit.
You know what, I'll try coloring her myself once I get access to a computer.
>Tfw mobile
>>78090Oh. I'll still look for some colors though. It may be of use.
>>78090See, I originally concieved her as a pale-gray/white color, like an ash tree, with golden scales. I wasn't able to think of a matching mane though, so I threw it out and didn't think of it since.
>>78092You could use greyed-out green as a mane color option. It may look good on her and it matches her scales if they are golden. Also, it's artistic cuz she is pure.
>>78093This is what I mean somewhat. Need confirmation that the scales are that kind of yellow or if they are less shiny.
>>78093Well, I kind of liked the homdrn scales idea, since a bit of an ironic twist on a character who spurns wealth. It feels kind of speshul snowflake tier, but I liked it, especially since it makes her look like a gold dragon.
>>78093>>78084Why are you hitting on the fictional character while
out of character?
>>78096If you want help on creating mares that don't pierce the reader's eyes, you can ask too, even though you are a bit edgy and don't like my current character. Besides that, I did say Ash was waifu material, and I don't lie.
>>78097So, do you like the color proposed for the mane or are you looking for something less grey? We could go for brown mane too.
>>78098>Telling off the GMYou're asking to get raped again, aren't you?
>>78100I mean, you're only proving my point. Not much else, apart from having to read effects of rape on male individuals.
>>78099Idk, I'd have to apply to think about it.
>>78101You think
this is bad? XD
>>78101Fair point.
The whole rape scene dripped edge like crazy
>>78098I think you are confusing not liking your character with retaliation for insulting one of his. Just a guess though.
>>78102I think a warmer color might be better tbh, like peach or pink.
>>78106But I also like the green, since it resembles the trees that nlmatch her name. Gold is already a warm color, and white is neutral, so green could balance the scheme.
>>78094>Need confirmation that the scales are that kind of yellow or if they are less shiny.They're very, very shiny. Close to actual gold as possible.
The green looks good.
>>78098>>78098Listen you ungrateful Shithead, I have spent many
many hours over the past two weeks trying to create unique environments, characters, and scenarios. I have worked on this during times that I should be spending with my grandparents and writing job applications. And for all of this, you actively mock
several of my NPCs that take extensive time to create, you disregard and throw away story pieces as characters when you want to chase some non-existent waifu, you get possessive over
my time that I spend with family, and you are consistently rude both in and out of character. You know I don't have to do any of this shit for you at all? You know I don't have to let you play?
Learn some fucking manners you autist
>>78104>>78101Jesus tap dancing Christ. It's
sleep paralysis. I used almost every trope on the wikipedia page. But if what you want is truly over the top sadism, I promise you, I can do better
>>78107Stop spamming posts in talking to yourself. Do you see how incredibly long these threads are? Do you know that when there are so many posts it's difficult to open a thread on some devices?
>>78109>sleep paralysisAh, that's exactly what I though it was.
I don't think I've ever had it since I was a child, but it's a dreadfully horrific experience.
>>78108>>78107>>78106Cool. If you're recoloring as we speak, I'd like to see the final product when you're done. See how it looks.
>>78111It'll be a while. I'm going to be limited to my phone for quite some time.
For clarification, I locked the thread because the faggotry (and not the playful fun kind) had reached a threshold.
Carry on, but do try to stop shitting in eachother's cereal
>>78114Sure thing Scruffy.
>>78116Good. Nice to see that that's over with.
I haven't been playing for a while now but having followed along, it might do to be less adversarial to one another. In addition, one-line posts, followed by one-line posts, followed by more one-line posts (all in the same 'stanza') fill these threads unnecessarily and make them cumbersome and difficult.
Additionally, while shitposting is to be expected to some degree, it can come across adversarially and make a situation unnecessarily tense and/or cumbersome especially to the GM.
Well, I think I need to rest for a bit. I don't want adversity from poorly crafted paragraphs by lack of sleep. Have a good night everyone.
...The hell happened while I was gone?>>78076"Thank you for seeing us, Father. You see..." And thus, Silver once again describes, in as much detail as he can manage, the events leading up to Dark Star getting infected, the ghast that infected him, the EDF soldier that got ghast-ified prior to the group's mission, and how Dark Star has been doing since getting infected.
>>78122Dark Star Groans in pain
>>78122>Curwhinny farm"Aye, there are many rumors about that old farm and quarry, and the merchant who used to spend his nights there. I once knew a mare who lost a foal there. Figured he drowned in the lake"
>The undead"There are many who try to fight back against death with magic, but magic doesn't always do what you wish it would do. It removes the soul, and replaces it with an animating energy of pure desire. Desires like those of the carnal, but insatiable and unmitigated. Something truly terrible"
>The actual ghast"We studied rumors of Griffin knights infected by these sorts of creatures. These are partly resurrected corpses that seek out flesh. A sort of desire to become more whole, if you will. But when they bite, they transmit the animating energy. Almost like a sort of terrible reproduction. Even the sex act has its terrible mimic among the undead. And this energy dwells in the host until it can overpower the lifeforce, after something like 30 hours the new host becomes like that which bit it."
>A cure"I believe I have books for this. Incantations and prayers to remove curses"
>>78122>>78123Forgot one>EDF soldiers"It's always a terrible shame to see a young stallion cut down in the prime of his life. But he that take the sword shall perish by it. May they find now the peace they avoided in life"
>>78125>But when they bite, they transmit the animating energy. Almost like a sort of terrible reproduction. Even the sex act has its terrible mimic among the undead. And this energy dwells in the host until it can overpower the lifeforce, after something like 30 hours the new host becomes like that which bit it."A wave of panic the likes of which has never before seen in Dark Star, hits him like getting a warehouse dropped on him
"W-W-W-WHAT?!?!? you gotta help me Father!"
>>78125>>78126>>78127Silver similarly looks worried. "Please, Father...cure my friend of this affliction. Whatever it is you need to do so, I will gladly provide it."
>>78127>>78126"I Dont want to die before ive had a foal."
Dark Star looks down
>>78129"Then you should keep holy signs before you face the undead"
>>78127>>78128"Aye, this is no mundane virus, and it needs no mundane cure. This needs the magic of the light"
Father Maren produces a large book with big leather bindings and a Sun on the front. He must have brought this with him when he first came out
"With the adequate prayers, this may be removed"
He turns to a page, and starts chanting:
"Removere e medio hujus equo execratione maledicta congessit..."
Hmmmm.... Does this need die rolls?
>>78130Silver can only somewhat follow what the Father is chanting, without knowing the language. He wonders to himself how anypony managed to come up with those words.
Well, it isn't exactly a traditional heal check, I would think. Maybe?
>>78131The language of the clergy is an older strand of Equestrian than contemporary ponish, he recalls
It would be like a caster level check
>>78130>this may be removed>may be>mayDark Star Has turned white from terror
>>78135That doesn't look good.
>>78132He decides that he'll stick with the Ponish and Cyrillic he already knows. At least those are familiar to him.
>>78135Atlas, pls don't kill mah fren. ;-;
>>78135The cure is not taking as Father Maren chants on,
"eximes te equum!"
Roll again
>>78139Well Thats a Big F From me.
>>78139Third time's the charm, don't give up! Skies needs you!
>>78133>>78139>>78139>>78140"Mali spiritus ad tartarus!"
He's not dead quite yet, but he feels a coldness starting to overtake him
[1d20 = 10]>>78136>>78137It Was nice adventuring with you guys
>>78142"Celestia if you are listening i promise ill... Start Praising the sun again."
>>78143These dice make me want to reee.
>>78143That should do it.
I know it will.
>>78144He will make it, trust the dice did its job.
>>78143Dark Star feels warmer with the Priest's last words. He thinks he hears a distant hiss as the priest continues:
"Inferis rediret corpus destiteritis"
>>78147>He thinks he hears a distant hiss as the priest continues:sorry blue
>>78147>>78148Roll another d20
>>78149>inb4 it's a luck roll to determine if Skies enters the room, slaps Star and leaves again.
>>78151Goddammit, Atlas...
>>78151That's not good. Time to load that dice or be food for lice.
>>78151Father Maren breaks from chanting to say the following in ponish:
“I’d have thought we could have cured you by now. Either something darker is wrong with you, or Fortuna herself has taken a disliking to you.”
“Filius autem malum lupa relinquo!”
>>78151Keep rolling, you can make it!
>>78155Silver looks anxious, with how long this is taking. "...Father, is there anything I can do to help?"
>>78156Is he rolling for ghoul fever?
He loses 1d3 dex and Con every time he fails.
Also, I'll try to play later.
[1d20 = 13]>>78155Dark Star's Worry intensifies
"..."
rolling
>>78158I don't think it matters right now. Unless it's permanent, which in that case, shush.>>78159Progress!
>>78158If he rolled a 1, that would start to be true. Dark tar actually still has like 23 hours on the incubation period though
>>78159Finally, Dark Star can feel a warmth come to him, as a red light emanates from him
"Begone evil magic!
There, that should have shattered it. You should be safe from turning into one of those things"
I was going to require a 15 or higher, but the dice is behaving like Dark Star has committing great crimes against its people
>>78161Yeah, but if he keeps failing, he'll die.
Ghoul Fever doesn't cause permanent ability drain, but it'll kill you.
>>78162Oh. I was going to prepare Remove Disease for when we met up, I guess that's not needed.
>>78162>if he rolled a 1It was really close to start happening. Good thing it was a 2 then.
>>78165This is why it's good to put some ranks in heal. You can take 10 on heal checks, but you can't on saving throws.
>>78162>>78159Silver lets out a breath he didn't know he was holding. "Thank Celestia..." After a couple seconds, he elbows Dark Star, looking much more joyful than we was a minute ago. "I guess that means you will have to start praising her, huh?"
Yeah, that dice just doesn't like Dark Star, today.>>78164It's still probably a good idea to prepare it, in case we decide to try the crypts again and bring Ash along.
>>78166It wasn't a heal check, just a d20. Besides that, if you roll a 1, no matter the bonus it should do the opposite of heal, right?
>>78167I still have like five sidequests I gotta finish to find those lost kids though.
>>78169You scratch our back, we scratch yours? If we meet up and take care of this one mission, then we could have everyone join up to help Ash recover the missing foals.
>>78168>It should do the oppositeNot unless circumstances say otherwise.
Using heal to treat a disease let's you sub your heal check for their saving throw. If you fail, they still roll their save normally.
>>78162"Thanks Father i feel warm again."
>>78167"Well i did say that. Even know she abandoned me when i needed it the most i guess i can give it another try."
>>78170this tbh the party needs to reunite so the time stream wont piss its self.
>tfw can't prepare Path Of The Exalted because I don't meet the abstainance component...
Fug. I shouldn't have cast detect magick...
>>78172"And you are welcome indeed. The Undead are no simple matter. Even from her prison. Celestia looks after her foals"
>>78169More like 2 miniquests, one of which could turn very serious
>>78174Well, there's:
>the supspicious adoption>The 1st made mare>The 2nd made mare>The pedo Social DemocratUnless I'm overthinking things.
>>78174"I have heared that they changeling steal some of the love That is meant for her."
>>78175Pretty sure the second and third child can be picked up at once with Cauldron as a contact. But it's going to be a medium to hard quest for it, without much pay apart from the two children.
>>78172He chuckles. "Well, it is more than just praising Celestia. She is just pony, even if she is purest ponification of what we praise. It is Spirit of Her, of Harmony and Equestria, that we truly praise. That which makes us all Equestrians."
>>78174"Father, you mentioned holy signs, to help against undead. We did not finish our mission, and it is likely we will try once more. If you have something you give us that could help in our endeavor..." He pulls out the 150 Bits-worth of paper notes Dark Star gave him for the armor Silver bought. "...here. Even if it is more than you need for purchase of holy sign, consider it token of my gratitude for helping my friend. And donation, towards repairing damage dealt to this Holy place during war."
>>78175>>78177Oh, and Ollie.
>>78179Right, that child, too. Still, Cauldron could help with that third one.
>>78179>>78175REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEUNITE WITH THE PARTY
>>78181B-but think of the children.
>>78180I promised Ollie I'd come back for him. I don't want to break that promise. It was a shame I wasn't able to find him that night.
>>78182i would if i knew about it
>>78173You cast it like twice trying to find a stack of bounded papers
>>78175The suspicious adoption is in
Manehattan, and talking to each made mare probably wouldn't be
that complicated
>>78178>arguing in a location without Blue Skies to retortInteresting if underhanded tactic
>>78178"Thank you, we rely on the generosity of practitioners"
>>78176"Come again?"
>>78185So, is the first adopted child is basically impossible, if not time consuming?
>>78185I only cast it once. It lasts 5 minutes.
>>78185"im not trying to be disrespectful. but it would make sense that since changeling feed off of love. and since they have her as a prisoner that they would use her as a free love generator."
>>78185Hey, if she's going to insult his core religious beliefs, talk smack about his former leader, and belittle his Motherland...Silver nods, his memories going back to the Cathedrals of Severyana and St. Petershoof from before the Reds came. "It is shame, to see such wonderful, Holy place become yet another casualty of war..." He sighs.
>>78188"They have enough ponies captured, already, without needing to rely off of love she receives from Her ponies. Meanwhile, even in clutches of bugs, She remains symbol of hope for all Equestrians in otherwise hopeless situation. We need Her, and belief in Her, far more than Changelings need her for their food."
>>78189"How Many Ponies Do you think worship and love celestia?"
>>78188"That would... be more than a little concerning"
>>78189Okay, seriously, why are you not playing a Paladin? If you were playing a paladin, you'd have special spells against teh undead, you yourself could cure diseases like ghoul fever, you could do mundane healing and fill the badly needed role of a healer. You said you didn't want to because you didn't want to be locked into a certain position and wanted to be 'true nuetral' or something. But Silver has not been true nuetral. He's been a harmonist and it is showing in how the character interacts. So why not be a harmonist Paladin. It's like Iron being a Barbarian but refusing to play a Barbarian class...From outside:
"IT'S ONE FUCKING WINDOW"
>>78191The lack of extra bonus feats is a bit concerning since I picked up a lot of them. Maybe I could multiclass for the last level to be a barbarian.
>>78191"Again Father im not trying to be disrespectful but. if they continue getting the love from her...well it wouldnt be good. and im not trying to get you to question your faith. im just worried about what the changlings will do with it."
>>78190"I do not know how many ponies live in Equestria, especially after war. But it was very common, almost universal, before Great War for all Equestrians to at least pay homage to Her, even if they did not visit places like this regularly."
>>78191Like I said, I'm new. Fighter just seemed like an easy class to try to learn the mechanics of the game, before diving head-first into all of the spells and such other stuff that I have no clue how to do. If I knew more about playing, yes, I would probably play Paladin, because that kind of play style seems like it would suit me. Unfortunately, being new, I've managed to turn an otherwise supposedly decent character into a train wreck, so I don't think I'll get the chance to.As for Silver being more Lawful Good than True Neutral, I'd also chalk that up to me being new and not fully understanding how to match his actions and words with his alignment. Sorry, I know I suck at this.Silver rolls his eyes. Blue just doesn't understand what it means to him, and to those Equestrians like him.
>>78194>I've managed to turn an otherwise supposedly decent character into a train wreckWrong.
>>78195I mean, I've been getting mostly complaints from the GM about him since I've really started using Silver, so...
>>78194"Those who close their minds to reason, facts and logic, shall fall prey to reality...."
>>78193He looks at him, and then looks more questionably.
"I best be gettin' back to my studies. But remember who healed you"
>>78196Oh please. There is so much worse
>>78196you are doing fine for your first character give your self some credit.
>>78197"I will Father. It was Good Seeing you Again. oh and thanks for feeding me all those years ago."
>>78197*looks at Iron*He nods. "Thank you again, Father. I wish you all best. May Her light shine forever upon you."
>>78199He has a grin on his face
"So I
had seen you before. Tell me. How is your brother now?"
>>78191>Paladin>Eating peoplePick one.
>>78191Hell, that could be Silver's story arc: realizing his place in this new world he's found himself in, seeking redemption for the misdeeds he's been a party to in his past, and attempting to live the rest of his life not fighting for himself, but fighting for those who can't.
>>78203See this as a thing to drop if you seek this path.
>>78202
>>78192Barbarian could be good if you wanted to Prestige class.
Fighters tend to multiclass a lot.
>>78200"You are welcome, my foal. Come back any time you are indeed of spiritual help"
>>78201"uh. im not exactly sure Father. he fought in the war and he never came home."
Dark Star looks Down and the Father can see tears
"i think the church has a leak."
>>78202>cows>peoplepick one
>>78205There's also a martial Artist class in d20 Modern that increases unarmed damage but still gives bonus feats.
http://www.d20resources.com/modern.d20.srd/classes/advanced/martial.artist.php
>>78207He places a hoof on Dark Star, and pats him
"He came home. He came home indeed, and never doubt it"
>>78209>>78205Remember not to multipost on yourself unless it's very important. Breathe and try not to do that any longer.
>>78208Cows are sentient.L in the MLP universe.
I was going to summon a Bison as a companion, but I didn't because I considered that Buffalo's were probably also a race.
>>78211Noted.
>>78210"I hope Hes in a better place. Could We pray for him Father?"
>>78212they are Sub ponies
>>78214So are niggers.
That doesn't make them okay to eat.
>>78206With that, Silver steps out of the Cathedral, confident that Dark Star will be okay. He doesn't pay much attention to Blue as he passes her, instead deciding to step onto the sidewalk, turn around to look at the Cathedral, and light himself up a cigarette.
>>78215Niggers are filthy though.
>>78213"Oh course, my foal"
He takes Dark Star's hoof, closes his eyes, and recites the following
"Celestia our eternal guardian,
Your light brings us to birth,
Your teachings guides our lives,
and under your light we return to dust.
Princess, those who die still live in Your presence,
their lives change but do not end.
I pray in hope for my family and my friends,
and for all the dead known to You alone.
In company with Luna,
Who likewise forever lives,
may they rejoice in Your heavens,
where all our tears are wiped away.
Unite us together again in one herd,
to sing Your praise forever and ever."
>>78216Blue skies: "No smoking within 15 feet of the building. Have some respect"
>>78217So are cows. They literally cause greenhouse effect by farting so much. What's the difference?
>>78215Buffalos are basically Prairie niggers. They can still talk, and they're intelligent.
Cows also talk, and are still sapient, if not a bit stupid in comparison to ponies.
Anything that talks has an intelligence score of at least 3, and doesn't qualify as an animal. Creatures with at least 3 int can advance as PC/NPC classes too.
>>78217I wouldn't eat them even if they were clean.
Food doesn't talk. If something talks it isn't food.
>>78218He doesn't really want to keep track of how far away from the Cathedral he is, and he thinks he's far enough away already to be respectful, anyways. He's more concerned with just looking at the gorgeous building. It's...soothing, really. In an unfamiliar city, with unfamiliar experiences, and unfamiliar ponies, this Cathedral is the one familiar thing he's encountered thus far. It lets him stay grounded in the reality he's in without loosing his mind, and he's very much thankful for its existence. "Did you ever get chance to see Temple of Light in St. Petershoof, Blue?"
>>78218"AMare. thank you Father. i feel better now. also i would like to make a Donation to the church."
Dark Star Hoofs Father Maren a 25 bit note and his old revolver
"i know you might object to it. but you could get some bits for this revolver father. i would have donated more but im a bit broke for right now."
>>78219Cows Don't Try to Rape White women.
>>78222That has nothing to do with whether or not we eat them.
Cows are sapient in FiM. They speak; they have self awareness; they give each other names. They're effectively people.
You could argue that they're less intelligent, but Half-orcs and Wood Elves are too: that doesn't make them okay to eat.
>>78223> that doesn't make them okay to eat.ROOD i love Ork steaks with a side of Hal Elf
>>78221the building does not have a light on it to illuminate its features, although he can tell that it has a solar pattern on its face engraves into the granite, and a number of engravings of ponies doing various acts in a granite frieze that adorns the top of the structure. Again, these are difficult to see under the lighting conditions, although far from impossible because the whole facade is white granite
"No, Steel Stallion came in at around the time I was born. Even if he hadn't, it was a very long ocean voyage away"
>>78222"An old man like he shan't be taking any guns for any purpose. Keep it, and hope its serves you better than it did today. But we can take your bits. Thank you, my foal"
It seems I will have to phonepost for the rest of the day. Expect slow response time.
>>78225What kind of race were you playing? Even Orcs won't eat other orcs. Orcs only eat other PC races sometimes because they're often Chaotic Evil and savages to boot.
A Lawful creature wouldn't break a strong taboo like that, and a good creature wouldn't eat other sapient races. A creature that eats other sapient races is neutral, [i]at best.
>>78228Asamar
>>78226"it was good seeing you again Father. ill stop by some time."
Dark Star walks out side
>>78229Silver stands on the sidewalk, looking at the building and smoking a cigarette. Blue Skies is a bit closer as she is standing on the stairs between the door and the sidewalk. She slowly trots towards Dark Star, with a bit of a concerned expression
>>78228Why is this discussion necessary?
>>78229>Aasimar>Angel kin>Eating people... Anon...
I'm not even going to ask what alignment..
>>78227Noted.
I'm going to be phoneposting for awhile too, but i'll be ready to play when the timelines synch up.
>>78226"It was greatest and grandest of all temples and cathedrals in Equestria. In all of world. Being inside it was like being in Her presence. It made all who entered her grand doors feel as though they were wrapped in ever-warm embrace of love and Harmony. Like you were cared for by Celestia herself. In such hard and cold place like Severyana, so far away from Celestia's own influence, it was what reminded us why we were Equestrians, why we were loyal to our fellow warm-weather ponies." He smiles as more memories of it enters his thoughts. "My father, he used to say that it was duty of all true sons of Severyanans to visit the Temple at least twice in their life: first as a colt, brought there by your father; second as a stallion, bringing your sons to witness its glory. It was...I can not hope to describe that feeling accurately, looking up in Temple and seeing Her. It was as if I had just seen for first time in my life" His thoughts make a turn, as he thinks back to just before he left his homeland, when things were starting to go from bad to worse. "I was not there, when it happened, but...before Severyana became Stalliongrad, there was much tension between those who wanted to be loyal to Equestria, and those who wanted to forge their own path. It became worse when Communists came and became strong enough force to be reckoned with. But Loyalists, they remained stalwart in their defense. They rallied behind Harmony, used it as great shield, which would protect them and all true sons and daughters of Severyana, of Equestria. Of Her. That Temple, it was part of that shield. It was Loyalist's greatest symbol of strength." Silver looks down, as he gets to the next part. "When Reds took control of St. Petershoof, you know what they did? They burnt Temple to ground, destroyed it to its very foundation...there was nothing left for Her ponies to even mourn over."
>>78230>Why is this discussion necessary?Idk..
I'm just bored, so I'm just trying to kill time until we're ready to play. I think it's a pretty accurate assessment of alignments though.
>>78231it was a survival situation, and the feral human that was raised by wolves convinced me.
>>78230"im alright now my baby blue. Father Maren is a good pony."
Dark star Strokes her face
>>78232"Communists deserve to all burn for all the crimes they have committed against our kind. The Changelings would have done the same to all of equrestria id the black hooves didnt step in."
>>78234>equrestria id the black hooves didnt step in."*If
>>78234>it was a survival situation>the feral human that was raised by wolves convinced me... Okay.. situations may vary...
I still stand by my previous points though.
>my baby blueTopkek, I'm loving the petnames.
>>78232This stills her. She sits down, looks over towards him, and her ears droop
"Sounds like the Percheron temple atop the Marecropolis in Nimbusia. My father took me to see that when I was a fillie. It gave me this great, elated feeling. Like I was a part of this long bloodline of glory. The ones who built that temple. Like a pride that extended to me. I haven't gotten that feeling much since.
I know what the Communists do. After I was chased out of Nimbusia, my new home had its own set of venerable ancient traditions. But the communists, with their progress and their forced collectivism, had nothing but contempt. I saw what they did. And I've heard what the Griffins have done to their own kind in Aquellia and the like. The Communists have no respect for tradition or for collective glory. They see the whole world as material and try to cut off the spiritual, be it the Nation or the Religious. They see History only as a history of oppression. They don't understand tradition or the desire to have a past. I've hoped to make a new home here, and preserve what can be"
>>78234She immediately takes a liking to this, and rubs her face more against his hooves, letting off a slight purr
"Good to hear"
>>78237Iron respect points increased.
>>78237He nods, feeling like there's a chance to learn some more about her, understand her a bit more. "If you have time, I would like to hear of your homeland. It sounds like it was glorious place." But, seeing Blue and Dark Star together, he thinks maybe letting them have some...alone time, would be better. "...though, I do not want to get in way of young love." He motion to the pair. "After all, I believe you still have date to get to. But I would still like to hear some more about this Nimbusia, some time."
>>78239She pets Dark Star, ruffling the mane behind his ears
"True, I wouldn't want to get in the way of Dark Star's having a good time, the poor colt. All colts deserve the chance to fall in love, I guess
As for me... I don't know if you would have liked the simple temple to Bellerophon, the spirit of the warriors, that stood in our town and in which my mother and father prayed, or the generally harsh and austere culture and construction of the place. We were warriors, once. We trusted in our wings, our strength, and our virtue, more so than in technology or a distant princess."
\r
Too bad Sister Ash isn't there.. I'd love to be making some religion lore checks right now..
>>78240>>78241I wiah Iron could hear this too.
>>78240"H-Hey"
Cute Edgy horse noises
>>78240>>78243He smiles a bit. "You sound almost like my wife, when you say that...but, enough of that, for now. I would still like to hear more about your homeland later. In meantime..." He looks at Dark Star. "...try not to break your stallion too much. He is not strongest pony in world..." The memory of Star accidentally shooting Silver in the ass come back to his mind. "...okay, maybe just break him little bit, to show that he is yours."
I've gotta go get some grub, shouldn't be gone too long.
>>78243She raises her hoof, places it into attack position, and....
*"Boop"*
"Hey"
>>78241>>78242Splitting the party has consequences>>78244"Breaking Earth Ponies was one of my father's duties back home. I'll try to keep up the family traditions"
>>78245I know.. It just couldn't be helped though.
>>78245Dark Stars face has the expression of if he had been shot
*Return Boop*
>>78244"im unbreakable."
>>78245Roll damage for that sneak attack on Dark Star.
>>78248I'm too bored not to say that sneak attack damage doesn't apply to touch attacks.Also, I'd actually of rather not know what her Rogue level is.
>>78248Tempting>>78247The Pegasus mare is an experienced warrior, and as such, can never be caught off guard. Roll die to see if the attack landed
She extends her wings as if to fly, showing off her full set of azure white feathers from wings each as long as her slender body
"If you like, we can test that unbreakability tonight"
[1d20 = 7]>>78250"I would like that."
>>78251Mission failed, we'll get'em next time.
>>78251The pegasus manages to duck and swerve her snout out of the way of Dark Star's hoof, the first time he has ever seen her not want to be touched
"Do you want to hang around more with your new friends, little colt?"
\r
>>78254"oh yeah im such a little colt. will you buy me some milk and cookies?"
>>78255"I didn't take you to raise. And you can have milk and cookies only after you do your chores"
>>78244"Ill See you later at the Eastside silver. i have a previous Engagement to attend to."
>>78256"Bucking sweet! i love cookies. Do you still want to go see that mover?"
>>78257Blue had a look of concern, but the concern vanished with this response
"Sure," she says, with a warm smile
>is researching spells for tomorrow
Hmmmm, Looks like Druids don't get very many divination spells, or other utilities. Guess I'll have to gather info the old fashioned way.
>Tfw 10 AC
Barkskin wouldn't hurt, I guess..
>>78259I was planning to buy barkskin potions, actually.
>>78258"Are you ready to go? or would you like to discuss some more?"
>>78260I was thinking Lunimous Armor. Think I can stand 1d3 Strength damage, for the sake of a +4 Armor bonus and some Daylight.
It wouldn't stack with the Ascetic's Exalted bonus, but it's not like I actually have it..I can also prepare Barkskin, if you really want it. Healing potions will also come in handy.
>>78261She rubs herself against him
"We can go. I'll talk with your friends later. But I believe you had a date tonight"
>>78262I have a lot of spare money for that. If you really can't choose anything else, I'll take you up on that offer, but don't sacrifice your spell availability for my sake alone.
>>78261>>78263It makes Silver smile, seeing those two together. "I will see you two lovebirds later at Eastside Tavern. Have fun on your date."
>>78263"alright.lets get going."
Dark Star puts his hoof around her neck and begins to walk towards the nearest theater
>>78265"see you later,silver."
>>78266>>78267Silver stretches his worn-out limbs and pops a couple joints in the process, before he similarly makes his way back to the tavern.
>>78264Alright, although I still think I'll prepare something, because I don't want my dog to get shot.
You're AC is pretty high though. Most attacks from NPCs should reach you, but when they do you'll want healing.
>>78269*Shouldn't reach you
>>78266She likes this, and they find a movie theater quickly enough, with fancy lights and the names of movies. He approaches the ticket booth. Dark Star now must pick a movie, and Blue Skies absolutely refuses to express a preference. The following is the movie selection at the theater:

"2 for Casa Blank Flanks."
>>78272ill see that one next time. it sounds fun tbh
Just checking:
Are bits silver pieces or gold pieces?
>>78277Gold, like the show, I assume.
>>78277The way they've been used, they're gold pieces.
>>78276Dark Star Hoofs over the bits to the pony in the ticket booth
[1d20-1 = -17]
I guess I keep dragging the poor bartender out of there... rolling just because it is funny that I can't seem to do it.
>>78283Nevermind. I guess I really didn't want to stick around.
>>78282>>78281No it isn't, and stop over-analyzing this shit
>>78280It is so. Does he buy popcorn, watch the movie quietly....?
>>78285What kind of snacks do they have?
>>78286Popcorn, pretzels, peanuts, haydogs... various sodas. No sugar based candies
>>78287Dark Star orders a big bucket of pop corn and 2 hay dogs and 2 Drinks
>>78288Only 2 bits
Blue Skies moves her tail in a sort of wagging motion
>>78289"You havent seen this one before have you?"
>>78290“Not my first time, but my first time to see it with you”
She rubs his mane
>>78287Mmmmmmm prezels.
>The praying mare's choice
>>78291"i was thinking about buying 2 for white swan. but i thought it would be more romantic to see this one with you."
>>78293“And it shall be. You made a good choice”
How many inches has Onyx been dragged?
>>78295Shimmer did a decent job dragging you, so you should be in the city with Shimmer instead of the catacombs.
>>78295Also your paralysis should have subsided since more than 10 minutes have passed... I think.
>>78294"Lets go get some seats."
>>78298Roll for seats
>>78295At least two feet
>>78299Shit. How many times do I have to drag before he can do it himself?
>>78299That's... not a lot.
>>78300"I can move my jaw now. Can you go any quicker?"
>>78302Kind of crowded, but can get decent enough seats closer to the screen. No chance of getting away with public lewdness
[1d20-1 = -18]>>78303"I am actually impressed I made it this far. You aren't exactly the easiest to move, especially for a unicorn. You ok by the way?"
I continue to drag.
>>78300He should have been able to move like yesterday. It’s literally a 5 minute paralysis
>>78303What were you paralyzed by that affects you for so long?
>>78305"Bruised, a bit battered. But nothing broken"
>>78307Ghoul paralysis last only like 30 seconds max, iirc.
>>78304Sad day for the worldBring some loaded dice next time d00d
>>78306You wouldn't respond to my attempts to try and get him out, so we are doing this. plus they failed anyway.
>>78308"Good to hear. You think you can get up yet?"
>>78312>"I can only feel one leg, so that's a no"
>>78311Should have showed up before the previews.
>>78309 Because of course you couldn’t have just said that in the first post you made, you have to make a separate post that links to it
>>78311Were you counting on it?
>>78313I lift him up and make him lean on me.
"Ok. Now use that one leg."
>>78316Hmmm... okay, reroll
>inb4 he rolls a 1 and cannot even sit next to her
>>78320Oh damn, niiiiiiice!
>>78320Nice.
>>78319We make our way out of the damn tunnel of doom.
>>78320N
I
C
E
>>78323>More leg wiggling
>>78320Another examination shows that seats towards the back of the theater are not taken. These seats are further away, and provide for a decent but not great view of the screen. They have the great advantage of not having any pony on the same row or above them, making anything that happens low in the seats not visible to anyone
>>78326"up there."
Dark Star walks up to the seats with blue.
>>78327Her eyes narrow. “You should wash yourself”
>>78328Shit. Forgot about that.
Somewhere, a batpone Eeees to himself
Happy New Year!
I don't want to camp the thread to snipe trips, so consider this a preemptive snipe
>>78330He must have had another narcoleptic episode.
>>78331Happy New Year. May your year be filled with Football.
>>78328F
"Ill be right back."
Dark Star heads to the bathroom
>>78330EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
>>78331>>78333Happy New Year to all.
>>78340Probably difficult to do in the right way and under the circumstances, but it is so
>>78341Dark Star Goes back to the theater
>>78342And it is so. There are a few adds and what seems to be propaganda at the beginning, before the start of the movie
>>78343Sits Down and watches the propaganda joyfully
>>78344The first piece concerns the threat of Changeling infiltrators. Particularly, it discusses the danger posed by Changelings who claim to be members of resistance groups, as well as by changeling workers who will “honey trap” their victims by romantic or sexual advances. The second piece concerns the need to continue the fight against Aquellia and Skyfall.
Then starts the movie itself
>>78345Dark Star puts his hoof on Blue's leg
>>78346You should specify which leg you're grabbing.
>>78346*giggles*
The essential premise of the film is of an equestrian nightclub owner naned Lick Mane, who tries to aid a Crystal resistance fighter’s escape from occupied lands. However, this is halted by two villains: a corrupt collaborationist red Pegasus pony named “Reynard,” with Fox like features; and a Changeling drone major named Steno, in full uniform. More importantly, Lick recognizes his wife as a woman he had been in love with in Tall Tales before that city’s capture
>>78348Dark Star get down in front of her chair
>>78349*surprised Pegasus noises*
>>78350He Rubs her thighs for a few seconds before gently pulling them apart
>>78351She purrs, and lets him. “You don’t want to watch the movie?” She whispers
>>78352"ill catch it next time."
Darks Star gives Blue a lick
>>78353“I could see it again. Ooh!”
She relaxes and lays back, evidently intent on enjoying the film
Assuming he’s licking what I believe he is licking, he finds that there is a surprising amount of juices. She was anticipating him
>>78354Dark Star Remembers something his brother told him, about licking in the shape of the alphabet and then. he trys it to see if it works as well as he said. he starts licking the alphabet on her Clit.
>>78355She shivers at moments, and winks back at him. He thinks at moments that she is trying to grab his tongue, though he never goes deep enough. She looks like she wants to moan but doesn’t, because of the location
>>78355Roll 1d20+Charisma to see how good you are at going down.
>>78356Dark Star Sticks his tongue inside and then use the tip of his tongue to rub the top of her Love Tunnel
Should i roll
[1d20-1 = -2]>>78358She clenches to trap his tounge when he places it in her.
Roll opposed grapple, strength check, to escape
>>78359>rolling an opposed grapple for your tongue to escape your partner's vaginal clenchingOkay, you got a laugh out of me for that one.
Now have Dark Star roll 1d20+charisma for cunillingus Performance (as the skill).
And Blue skies make a Constitution check to see how long she lasts before creaming.
Followed by a bluff check to stifle moaning, and a Hide check to hold still.
I'm bored.
>>78360It wouldn't be the first time it's happened...
>>78361Dark Star establishes control over Blue Skies’s tunnel of love. Not that she minds, as she seems enamored by the love triangle between Lick, Laserglow, and Elsa.
>>78364Dark Star Massages he tits with his hoof
Are Shimmer and Onyx still in that dungeon?
>>78366No, they're with Star and Skies.
JK no idea
>>78367>>78368It might a a while before the party can meet up, if that's the case..
>>78369Honestly, I thought they were outside already.
>>78366No, just leave the dungeon
>>78365The small teats are soft at first, but become firm very quickly. They are nice and symmetrical, but rather small, as Blie Skies seems to be neither pregnant nor having recently nursed foals.
She tries to be quiet, visibly forcing her mouth shut
>>78371I keep saying we leave the dungeon, but it never seems to end.
We leave the quarry. Hopefully.
>>78373I continue to sleep, dreaming of running through a field of flowers.
>>78371Dark Star Continues the assualt on blues Horse pussy
>>78375And Silver is...doing Silver-y things, I would imagine.
[1d20 = 16]>>78373Roll for dreams
>>78373Going where?
>>78376Fluid spills out and starts to drip on the floor after repeated assault. But she is durable, and can take the beating
>>78377So you're tarnishing for no reason?
>>78379That...kinda sounds like him, yeah.
>>78380Obviously the name fits.
[1d20 = 1]>>78378I guess we limp back to the bar as normal, unless Onyx has other ideas.
Also rolling for dreams of better rolls.
>>78378Dark Star rubs her clit with his hoof while he continues to slide his tongue in and out.
So, can I get clarification on this one line spoken by Father Lancaster Maren earlier in the game when he was talking about ghasts, specifically the part I boldfaced:
>"We studied rumors of Griffin knights infected by these sorts of creatures. These are partly resurrected corpses that seek out flesh. A sort of desire to become more whole, if you will. But when they bite, they transmit the animating energy. Almost like a sort of terrible reproduction. Even the sex act has its terrible mimic among the undead. And this energy dwells in the host until it can overpower the lifeforce, after something like 30 hours the new host becomes like that which bit it.">>78383"The thing is...the game was rigged from the start." - Atlas
>>78387She absolutely loves this form of touching, and she wraps a wing around Dark Star, while largely succeeding in timing an orgasm to the escalation that the hero has a particular dislike for a piano tune because of a connection to a past love
>>78382Yes
>>78383Onyx needs medical attention
[1d20 = 15]>>78389Rolling
>>78389Damn. We don't have healing, so I guess we divert to a hospital.
>>78388He means that the undead have desires that are pervesions of those of the living. The undead, obviously, cannot create new life like sexual reproduction. What they can do is infect new hosts like a virus or parasitiod. And that is what he means. The virus that spreads ghouls is kind of like their version of reproduction
>>78390Hmmm. I’ll think of the meaning of this at some pony when I’m not at a New Years Eve party, but Ash does NOT have night terrors
>>78391A fine choice
>>78392Okay, that is infinitely better than where I thought he was going, there.
>>78389dark Star Climbs back up in to his seat after she is finished orgasming
>>78383RIP your rolls
But onyx is content to return to the bar
>>78394Obviously while leaving the juices from his in-movie meal on his face like a goddamned champion.
>>78395We are heading to a hospital now. You are wounded pretty bad.
>>78396Something about the image of Skies blushing, wings flared while Star just sits there with mare juices all over his face is so funny to me.
>>78394She smiles at him, wickedly, and places a foreleg around him. “You still have a haydog if you are hungry”
She is still watching the movie. The war story doesn’t seem to connect with her that well, and she makes remarks implying she is actively rooting for the Changeling
>>78393We can have undead rape if so desired
>>78395Maybe a hospital
>>78397Hey, Onyx still has over 50% of his health...
21/40 is over 50%
>>78400To the hospital it is.
>>78399I mean, it's not
really desired, it's just the first thing that came to mind when he said that and it made me really concerned about why the EDF ghast was castrated.
>>78399Dark Star Cuddles her and eats the haydog that is left over.
>>78402Well, the dick and balls could've fallen off from yearsof rotting.
>>78402Same that also concerned me.
>>78405You didn't seem to mind when eating Skies' pussy though. Practice safe sex after being treated from deadly magic for god's sake.
>>78406Praise the sun my dude.
>>78407Remind me of your sexual deviancy when RPing a mare if Iron dies.
>>78402I described the pony as being castrated, because castration, along with missing eyes, missing lips, a missing tongue, and s few other features are among what you’ll see in stories of horse and cattle mutilations, where livestock are mysteriously mutilated. Allegedly these are soft parts of the organism that are quickly eaten by savangers or decay quickly. Horse mutilation seems creepy to me, so I imitated it
>>78408>sexual deviancyimplying
>>78403*cuddled Pegasus noises*
Cold, but soft and fluffy. She smiles warmly and clearly enjoys it
>>78411How much of the movie has Dark Star missed?
>>78409Well, I suppose I learned something today, at least.
>>78409they are in fact very creepy
>>78412Like maybe one quarter? How long was he down there?
>>78413>mutilation of the eye occurred in 59 percent of cases, mutilation of the tongue in 42 percent of cases, the genitals in 85 percent of cases, and the rectum in 76 percent of cases.https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cattle_mutilation
>>78415>NEWS: 76 percent of scavengers prefer eating ass, according to a recent study.
And lo on this night in the game, while the ponies did go about their business, a darkened shadow did flit from rooftop to rooftop, almost as though propelled by magic or unseen force.
As it did traverse from place to place, the position it had occupied would resound with a loud "POP" and would be bathed in multicolored lights. On and on, this went on, where like a very slowly lit fuse visible only from high in the air, did this whoever bounce from point to point, raining "Dancing Lights!" down on those ponies who looked upon. And then, with the same swiftness that it had appeared, whoever it was vanished without a trace. All that remained was the smell of sulfur, a hint of the most basic of magics, and the warm feeling that somepony, somewhere hoped that everyone had a happy new year!
>>78415That would Depend entirely on blue
>>78392Do ghouls spread the same way wights do?
>>78416Fucking kek
>>78417Awww, happy New Year
>>78417Happy New Year, indeed!
>>78417While I did say it before, I say it again.
Happy New Year!
>tfw New Year happened two hours ago
>>78424It's still a few minutes away for me.
>>78418Hmmm... she seems like the type who would try to get multiple orgasms out of it. Anyways, he has popcorn, hay dogs, sodas, a cuddled Pegasus and a sure tounge while watching one of the finest works of Equestrian film
>>78419Fuck if I know
>>78426He leans back in his chair finally relaxing from the days events and enjoys the company of the Pegasus next to him and he enjoys the film
>>78426I was just wondering,since some undead spread by infecting their victims via the Create Spawn ability, like Wights and Shadows, while other are just created via intentional necromancy or some kind of similar curse.
Creatures killed by Wights become Wights in 1d4 rounds, which makes them much more dangerous than ghouls.
I'll shut up...
>>78426Silly GM. All mares are multi-orgasmic. That's the feat all females have
>>78428Do you want rotten dick in your pussy? Because that's how you get rotten dick in your pussy.
>>78429I would argue it varies by constitution score.
>>78430Pls no.. I'm trying to remain celibate.
>>78431From what the GM says, it's a pretty high Con save to keep the dick>>78432>remain celibateNot for long if Iron has a say in it.
>>78432Also, Vow Of Purity forbids contact with necrotic flesh, and I kind of wanted to take that.
>>78434That's fair, but try not to talk like you're in a discord server.
>>78433It'd depend on Whether or not I can take the Vow of Chastity.
Otherwise, fuck it.
>>78436It doesn't seem like such a big buff to be honest. Just a +4 against will saves from charm doesnt seem that powerful to me. Maybe it actually is and I am flatbrained.
>>78435... I'll try harder...
>>78427So as he can gather, as well as from Blue tells him, this guy is helping some kind of resistance fighter, but that guy is maried to some made that he used to love. And meanwhile there is this Changeling after him, as well as some collaborationist police officer. But the guy confronts the mare, and she gives a reasonable enough explanation for why she left him. They evade the Changeling until it is time to leave. But the guy shoots the Changeling and the collaborator decides to join the Equestrians, while the other guy goes off with his wife on an airship to Yakyakistan. And he lets go of the mare though they still seem to kind of love each other. It’s sort of sad and touching, or at least Blue has a tear
>>78437Yeah, it really isn't. My Will save is already good, and since I'm Wis-based, most mind affecting abilities and spells won't affect me anyway.
Vow of Poverty though, that's what I actually want to play. Fit right up her alley.However, I've been playing her as a celibate for the time being, since that's an aspect of ascetiscism, imo. Particularly since she loves children, so denying herself her own foal is her way of reaching greater selflessness. It's not that she's taken a Vow, but it's her basic creed to deny herself worldly pleasures; minor exceptions may apply though.
Not that it couldn't change in the future though.
>>78439Dark Star musters up a single tear
>>78435T> GM, can I beat him?
>>78442W0t? I guess? Maybe? Sure? IDK. Have you recolored that kirin already?
>>78443That's someone else.
>>78443And no, I have not had the chance to recolor that kirin.
It's going to be a while until I have access to a real computer I can use.
>>78442Iron, not yet. Mr. makes a one sentence post on an off topic subject and then links to that post with another single sentence off topic post, yes
>>78441As the liquid pride runs down Dark Stars face, Blue Skies places her muzzle on his chest. The movie is over
>>78446Are Shimmer and Onyx at a hospital yet, or they kicked the bucket?
>>78447I wasn't injured in the battle... I think... but given our luck, we probably got into trouble on the way there and kicked the bucket.
>>78446Dark Star hugs her and says.
"that was a great movie. i had
Fun tonight."
>>78447Last I knew, they were getting healed at a hospital.
>>78446How much does getting healed at a hospital cost?
>>78449She wraps a wing around him. “I had fun too”
>>78450In socialist Baltimare? Nothing
>>78451"Hey, Blue do you want to be my MareFriend?"
>>78451Ah.. so it's at taxpayer's expense.
>>78453>>78451>Marxism it just works>Muffled Sounds of people starving to death
>>78452She blushes
"Maybe..."
>>78455"Sounds like a yes to me." Dark Stat smiles
>>78456She places a hoof on his shoulder, and does her wicked smile again
"Dark Star, before I take you to bed, I want to know one thing. And it's okay to say how you feel. Do you think you love me?"
>>78457"Well of course yeah i do."
>>78458Smile again
"Say it with conviction"
>>78457>>78458I was about to say that you should show off your vocabulary and writing skills but you just had to pick the easy route.
>>78459"I Love You,Blue Skies, i have from the moment i first saw you. when we are together i feel like everything is fine even if ive been shot or bitten by a zombie. you make me the happiest stallion in equestria."
>>78461"D'aww" She hugs him with her wings. "Yes, I'll be your marefriend. Where to now?"
>>78462"Lets go get a couple drinks."
Im going to sleep goodnight guys.
I guess Shimmer and Onyx (if they are even here) can take the spotlight and reach a medical center.
I guess not. I'll say goodnight too.
>>78463Night, Star's player.
>>78467[Resting Fighter Horse Noises]
>>78468>>78467Iron is still asleep, but not as peacefully.
>>78469It's hard to sleep while you're getting raped by a dog
or having a nightmare about getting raped by a dog, I would imagine.
Walking horse noises
or Drinking horse noises im not sure
>>78471How about horsefucking noises?
>>78470Shush, no talk about bad stuff or else scruffy cleans us all.
But yeah, he spilled the beans about the 'was it rape or a nightmare' deal. I won't tell you tho
>>78471And thus the two arrive at the Eastside Tavern. At least I assume that is where he wanted to go, since with was not specified
>>78468Sure, he would have arrived at the Eastside Tavern about an hour or two before Dark Star and Blue Skies
>>78472That pissed me off. We could always reroll to retcon the scene though>>78473*waits for Dark Star to come*
>>78475Yea the eastside is where i wanted to go.
>>78475>waits for Dark Star to comehmmmmmm what did they mean by this?
>>78475>>78476Silver is already there, sitting at a table and taking a load off.
>>78476Forgot to add a "Yeah, let's do that" from Blue Skies, but they arrive there
>>78475It did show how much faggotry was going on that a janitor had to appear. I won't be much of a loudmouth from now on. I'll try to play some safer banter.
>>78477Silver is able to reflect on the fact that he nearly died today, he spent some of his money, and he is still unemployed
Oh look, It's Dark Star and his fascist sort-of marefriend
>>78479That indeed
>>78478"So what do you like? you seemed to like the maretini last time."
>>78480It's not exactly a good feeling for Silver. But, at least he's alive.
>>78481He waves at Dark Star and Blue as they enter.
>>78481"It's not the drink. It's who buys me the drink and why they do it"
>>78482I guess they left on a positive enough note
>>78482Dark Star waves back at silver
>>78475Can I know the results of the dream roll?
>>78483>>78484He's glad at least somepony found something they wanted tonight. In the meantime, Silver continues his reflection on the events of the past few hours.
>>78483"Alright."
Dark Star walks over to the barpony and orders
the equivalent of a jack and coke and a Strawberry maretini
>>78487"Back again?" says Glistening Glass
>>78485Tall brown grasses of Zebrican meadows, and prancing through the grass from Savannah to Savannah. A dark and dense wetland-forest with yellow eyes in it. Little foals gather around a fire. A black mare bangs against some transparent barrier. A small foal is tied down. A small foal has her throat slit, and the body tossed into the fire as foals cheer
>>78486I take it more unpleasant than pleasant
>>78488"Yep, i almost died today."
>>78488Little column A, little column B, little bit trying to figure out how to make things go more smoothly next time, because even if Spark doesn't want to go back there again, Silver needs the Bits the job will provide.
>>78488"REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!"
Sister Ash dream-gallops towards the area.
>>78489"I take it you really need that drink then"
>>78491As she gallops closer, she finds that the distance seems to steadily increase, like for every step she takes, it becomes two further away. Then the air becomes... cold. It seems like the number of foals has thinned out, to only just a few
[1d20 = 13]>>78492Sister Ash, operating under dream-rationality, only tries to run faster on the treadmill of supernatural horror, reeeeeeeeeeing louder and burning hotter.
Wisdom check to realize ze this is a nightmare.
>>78493[Angry Nirik noises!]
Forgot pic
>>78493She successfully makes it there, but when she arrives, there is only one foal. The cream colored pegasus fillie. She seems to be... not really there. Her eyes are replaced with a burning red, and she has a cold aura
>>78495She attempts to pick her up.
>>78496Cold to the touch, and with a shining evil grin and glowing red eyes. This is no fillie, this is a demon, or a demon inhabiting a fillie
>>78490Now she waves
[1d20 = 18]>>78492I guess I can try to have dreams until every timeline syncs upIron attempts to have some wet dreams of every mare he's encountered thus far. Rolling luck to see how successful it is.
And I mean EVERY SINGLE ONE. The capo's security mare, Cauldron, Blue Skies, even the two sisters. You could even create some native mares from Iron's past to rack up the pussy count.
>>78497Won't have night terrors, my ass.She bobs the filly up and down.
"Can you hear me?!"
>>78497Silver idly waves back, his mind occupied with other thoughts at the moment.
>>78499Jesus, that's disturbing.
>>78492"Yea if you dont mind. Say have you seen Oynx and Shimmering Spark?"
>>78499With an infernal hiss and a yell, you can tell decidedly that she is gone
>>78500It is so
>>78498Ash is reserved and charmed apparently, mostly submissive. Blue Skies is domineering and makes racial slurs to Iron while being the most... proactive, and Cauldron smiles while coming over slowly, clearly impressed and taking the time to be seductive. The female underboss starts to slowly take off her dress while giving him a wink. The police mare says something about trying to help the natives
Did I miss anypony?
>>78502
>>78502"I can't say that I have"
>>78503She keeps shaking her for a bit, before just holding her to her chest and sobbing desperately.
[1d20+6 = 20]>>78506Roll for initiative
>>78503You could add the sisters he recently met and forced him to sleep separately from Ash, but they might have some special spiritual barrier to be away from wet dreams of stallions, maybeIron is definetly pleased with all the attention he is being given. He makes sure to please every single mare in his dream, giving special treatment to Cauldron and Ash, since they're the best mares so far, he just can't stay mad for Cauldron's betrayal.
>>78504"What? you Havent seen them?"
>>78500Dark Star Waves Silver over
That's a lot of duplicate replies...>>78510He does actually notice this, and does so, curious about why Dark Star would call him over while he and Blue are having a moment.
>>78514No idea what happened there. Computer got super laggy.
>>78514"Oynx and Spark havent been seen."
>>78516NOW he understands why Dark Star called him over. "They have not? Are you sure?"
[2d20 = 15][1d20+3 = 11]>>78508Her coat turns dark black and her hooves a solid steel as she snorts fire from her snout. She lets out a deep, infernal cry, and hits Ash with both hooves while trying to bite
>>78511Roll for luck
>Cauldron's betrayalAre you shitting me? The statement he made to Cauldron is miles beyond simply misogynistic. It was one of the most
autistic statements I've ever seen
>>78517"Thats what Glistening Glass says."
[1d6+1 = 3][1d6+1 = 2]>>78518>>78508Ash receives a very firm bite and a kick that tear through her scales and hide. The fillie is dead, replaced by a monster
>>78518Motherfuck, that might kill me.
[1d20 = 3]>>78518He feels it was a betrayal of trust. Don't take it too harshly. He's just hurt.Rolling.
>>78522Oh no, incompetence time.
>>78519He looks worried. A few different scenarios roll through his head. "Does Spark know any healing spells, or did they have any healing potions? It could be they took Onyx to hospital if they did not. He did look pretty hurt, there."
>>78522INB4: a Nun walks in on him sporting a stiffy and wakes him up from his dreams.
>>78524Oh god, no. Anything but that.
[1d20+6 = 21]>>78520Sister Ash gives up her Quench spell to summon a dire wolf.
As a free action, she makes an Intelligence check to identify the monster.
>>78520Are those Damage rolls?
>>78526That was Knowledge (the planes).
>>78524"Spark Does not know any healing spells. and i dont think they have any potions...."
>>78525Don't worry, you didn't fail that badly
>>78521If she has any terrible memories of fire, she can feel them very firmly now, as the hooves burn into her flesh
>>78522With a flash of Green light, Ash turns from the pleasant Kirin he knew into something.... different. Jet black chitinous hide, green wing pods, a crooked horn, deep yellow eyes, and legs with holes you could roll a marble through. The same with Cauldron, and the Underboss, while Blue Skies laughs in complete menace with evil green eyes
>>78526Dire wolf comes
>the monsterA tormented soul who had no father or mother to protect her nor love her, and fell prey to the world
>>78527Yes
\r
>>78525>>78529Oh yes, Iron needs to roll at least 3 fortitude saves
[1d20+16 = 23]>>78529Okay.
She summons the dire wolf roughly ~15 feet behind the monster. It promptly charges from the opposite direction from where Ash was attacked, tearing into the monster's flank with predatory expertise.
Ash let's of a moan of despair, shutting clutching her chest in agony.
>>78529Iron is shocked at how everyone is turning into some sort of weird bug quadrupeds. "What is going on? What happened? What are you?" He clearly has panicked.
[1d20+5 = 19][1d20+5 = 22]>>78530Oh damn, didn't read that.
I'll roll two now and one next post.
[1d20+5 = 24]>>78530One more.
>>78528"Then I hope that is where they went. Otherwise...I am not sure I would be able to help them, on my own."
[2d20 = 21][1d20+3 = 7]>>78531The Dire wolf fails to land a hit on the Foal's Jet hide, as she maneuvers to make it hit only a well protected area.
The fillie strikes again
>>78532With a flash of green light, Blue Skies transforms. Antracite coat, a long and flowing mane, with the same slender appearance, now much larger
"Didn't your mother tell you the dangers of seeking sex from random mares, young foal?"
>>78534>>78533And.... Pass
>>78536Iron is even more confused. "What? What are you implying?" He approaches the most important bug creature. "What is your problem?"
What did those fortitude saves do?
>>78537"Problem? There is no problem at all. We are here to serve your lusts, after all"
The bug creature with the yellow eyes that have no white releases a long and twisted tongue, and wraps it around Iron's penis
>>78538Iron is somewhat flusetered by her ministrations. "I-I see..." Iron grunts. "You are doing a fine job." Iron relaxes himself, somewhat comfortable in this situation. "Hope you are not simply here to play with my member. I would like to pleasure you too."
[1d3 = 3]>>78536Wtf kind of armor class does this thing have? 24, flat footed...
>Nervousness intensifiesSister Ash takes a 5 foot step back to leave the monster's threatened space, wincing in pain, and gives up her heat metal spell to summon 1d3 wolves, all 15 feet away, in flanking positions relative to the Dire wolf.
Rolling for how many summoned.
I have to step out for a bit. Bbl
>>78490Don't worry. I will be heading back there sometime. I just need Onyx to show up to finish the hospital scene, then we will probably all meet up again to discuss going back.
>>78535"i hope you are right."
>>78539The leader's yellow mane has holes all its own the size of coins. She leans over with evil glowing jade eyes. "Excellent. Shall we resume?" She reaches out a blackened-broken hoof to place around Iron's head and mane. She open her mouth, extends her long and narrow tongue, forked like a snake, and shows off her two-inch long fangs as she leans in for a kiss
>>78540She looks at Ash with firery, hateful burning red eyes and lets forth a high-pitched shriek that has no place in this dimension, as she breathes out fire, and surrounds her self with a steadily increasing thick black smoke like that which comes from an air-starved fire
[1d20+10 = 27]>>78543Iron is liking this. He connects with the changeling's lips, completely into it. He, of course, seeks dominance in the kissing. Rolling a "grapple" check to establish dominance in the kissing.
>>78542He stays quiet for a bit, thinking. "Dark Star, you would not happen to know someone we could bring along to crypts next time? Particularly someone who is good at healing, or could cure infections from those undead?"
[1d20+10 = 13]>>78544She resists, naturally
>>78546I'll keep that grapple check in mind on further rolls. Seems she has some strength on her.
>>78544>>78546Iron wins, but this is a symbiotic relationship, if you will
"I see you are strong, Earth pony"
She extends her snake-like tongue into his mouth as Yellow-eyes places her mouth around Iron's penis, unable to avoid stabbing it a little with her own fangs
>>78545"i think so. theres this nun"
Alright, serious question to all party members
Which characters here would knowingly have sex with a Changeling?
>>78549"The Lizard girl?" Blue Asks
"She's not a nun. I promise you the Celestials know the difference"
>>78548Iron grimaces a bit while kissing. He explores her mouth in great detail with his tongue, looking for her taste and soft spots she may have.
>>78550Iron would totally bang one if she can bear children for him. So basically, he's aiming for royalty.
>>78550Nope. Skittle or otherwise, just nope.
>>78549"Do you think this nun would help us? I do not think we will be able to complete this mission without aid."
>>78550It would take some very, VERY specific circumstances for Silver to even think about it.
>>78552An almost ribbed mouth ceiling, a thinner than normal tongue, a thicker than normal spit, and sharp, broken teeth though these are avoidable. Taste is actually not bad
>>78553Have you seen the EaW models for the Grenecliff changelings? They are totally bangable
>>78555Silver might knowingly fuck a Greneclyf changeling. Those would fit all of his criteria.
>>78555Checked, but not my character. Plus, he hasn't left Equestria to see those.
>>78552>>78555And how could I forget. The mouth is
cold. The tongue is cold
>>78556Okay, now I am curious. How do you interpret the Greneclyff Changelings, and what are these criteria?
>>78555>>78558Iron winces at the cold feeling of her mouth, being accostumed to warm climates of the jungle. He's not one to back down from his promises, though. He sensually tickles each sensitive spot the changeling being kissed has. After about 1-2 minutes of this, he breaks it. "You are quite strange. Why do you feel so cold inside?" He also focuses on the ministrations the yellow-eyed changeling is doing to his dick.
>>78540Back
3 wolves, great.
>>78543One question: how big is this thing? Is it the same size as the filly that it possessed?
I just want to know it's size category, for combat purposes.
>>78550In character? Absolutely never.
Sister Ash is too devote to give up celibacy before marriage for some evil creature, for no good reason.
>>78559Changelings who believe that peaceful cooperation with ponies will result in everyone benefitting. The changelings get higher-quality food from willing ponies, and the ponies get stalwart friends and allies.As for Silver's criteria, they have to A.) not be a member of Chrysalis's hive, B.) not be a supporter of Chrysalis' hive or its ideals, C.) not be afraid to reveal their true identity to ponies, and D.) have gained his trust beforehand.
>>78551"yea her."
>>78554"Maybe. she did before."
>>78561>>78561Fillie sized
>give up to some evil creatureRight...
>>78562Don’t be silly Silver. No pony would
ever love a Changeling
>>78560She answers with her glowing eyes: “Like you, we have an inner lack of the magic of harmony and friendship that forms the life force of all that lives. Unlike you, we are born with the deficit, but posses the means to take it. Care to share some your small reserves? We can offer you the carnal and the fruits of the material. If you have a taste for stolen wealth and power, or sex, we can find it. Just share a bit of that love, if you will.”
Yellow eyes lacks much sold flesh, but has put her long and winding tongue to good use
>>78563He nods. "You will have to take us to her tomorrow, so we may ask." After saying this, he looks over at Blue. "In either case, I will not interrupt your night any further. We can talk later, when you two are not in middle of romantic night together."
>>78564Iron sighs content with her sucking and the trade being done here. "Before I agree, let me ask you one question. Do you have the capacity to bear children? I would like to see the results of this act by myself later."
>>78566“
I do.
They don’t. If it’s a pony foal you want, we can snatch one for you”
[1d20+9 = 22]>>78564>SmallThat's less than I thought.. Poor thing..
*checks combat rules*The Dire Wolf ended his charge within the possessed filly's square: his scent ability pinpoints creatures within 5 feet.
The dire wolf let's out a threatening growl, and holds back his initiative, as his pawns close in.
The 3 wolves charge, flanking the possessed one.
1st roll is a touch attack for a grapple check, if it succeeds, the next two charge in to aid or pin.
>>78567Iron shakes his head. "No, I want one of yours." Iron nuzzles the side of her face. "I suppose it is not hard for you to do that. Is it?"
>>78567Iron then realizes something. "Actually, I might have a need for foalnapping."
[1d20+4 = 23]>>78568Rolling the opposed check.
>>78551"What do you mean shes not a nun?"
[1d20+5 = 13]>>78569She responds well to the muzzling. “I have a thousand hatchlings already, I can lay a thousand more for you if so desire. You could never do it, but no matter, there are many drones.”
>>78570She laughs
“We are expert body snatchers. Foals, lovers, the elderly... anypony in a position to be loved. We can sneak into a foal’s room at night - or in broad daylight, should we pose as a nanny - and take a foal right from his cradle. We leave behind one of our own hatchlings, who becomes the foal’s perfect doppelgänger, to be loved and cared for. We normally milk the snatched ponies for their love, but for s price, we are willing to offer our services to snatch a foal for you”
>>78571She strikes out with a hoof
>>78572“She’s not even a Cekestia worshiper. She hasn’t taken any vows, been confirmed, or anything”
[1d20+9 = 14]>>78572Sister Ash is a nun.. just not a Celestial.. At the very least, she made a commitment to protect the children of the abbey.
I fluffed her as an Ex-Monk: it's in her old monastary where she took on the creed of extreme ascetiscism (since monks make the best Ascetics).
>>78551>Lizard girl[Indignant dragon noises]
>>78573I didn't realize charges provoke AoOs on a grapple (my mistake), but the charging penalty would have made Wolf's AC 12, canceling the grapple.
The second wolf charges from the flank. No AoO this time, unless she has Combat Reflexes.
>>78573Iron smiles. "You seem confident in your abilities. Tell you what. I may need your services in the future and more than once. How about you send one of your kin as a sort of ambassador to help me with some foalnapping jobs I need to do? I will give love for each job to the ambassador for you to use. Are you interested in this offer?"
>>78573"huh. thats strange. so you said you were "my Sort of marefriend" to silver."
>>78575Kek. I love that meme.
>>78573Day of Bug Spray, when?
>>78574I’m less sure if that would even land as a touch attack
>>78576She laughs
“We are born to do it, and have been perfecting our talents for a thousand years. Unfortunately, there is a small catch. Don’t worry, we have agents all around who would
love to accept such a deal, if they could love”
Iron awakens to an empty room. Yes, there is a full erection
>>78577Actually, no. That was a description of a scene from Silver’s perspective
>>78578If Ash does it
>>78579Iron is even more confused by this. "What? Now what is going on?" He scratches his head. He looks around the room, trying to recognize it.
>>78579I thought Dark Star was around for that scene, though.
[1d20+9 = 24]>>78579A 14 touch doesn't land, even
while flanking?The third wolf charges, also grappling from the flank.
>>78581He was. It was never spoken aloud
>>78580It is the room he fell asleep in. The door is closed
>>78582Well, this one certainly lands
>>78579Dark Star takes a sip of his drink
"that Farm is a terrible place."
>>78583Iron huffs in annoyance. "I hope she reconsiders later. What a strange, sexy mare that was." He checks the time of day outside through a possible window..
[1d20+4 = 12]>>78582Okay, that had to hit.
>>78584Rolling opposed
>>78586I'm certain Dark Star would be confused as to why he suddenly feels like someone's opposed to him.
>>78586Wait, that should actually be 16, because of size advantage.
>>78587I replied to the wrong post.
>>78586 was meant for
>>78583
[1d20+1 = 5]>>78584“Well, if you needed an exorcism after visiting there, then yes, I can imagine”
>>78585Still dark
>>78586Rolling
>>78590Iron rubs one of his eyes. He feels his erect cock. "Great. Now what am I going to do with this thing?" He tries to sleep again, back against the soft mattress. He grumbles about his predicament.
[1d3+4 = 6]>>78590NOW it's grappled.
Roing nonlethal damage.
[1d20+21 = 34]>>78592>>78590And finally, the Dire wolf, who held back his initiative, moves in to pin the possessed one.
Since she's already grappled, his grab attack automatically succeeds.
Rolling opposed check.
>>78590"Have you ever Seen anything like zombies before?"
[1d20+1 = 10]>>78592Not enough
“RAAAAAH!”
>>78593Rolling
>>78591What
does an earth pony do with it?
>>78594“I can’t say that I have. Ever”
>>78595Iron realizes he can't sleep with his penis erect. "I guess I can take of it outside. No way I am messing this place up." Iron groggily stands up and proceeds to exit his room. He looks for any way out of the building.
>>78595>What does an earth pony do with it?Well, there are pillows nearby if he wants to be weird, or he could try to use the frog of his hoof, or his wrist joint.
[1d4+12 = 13]>>78595Rolling nonlethal damage, from the dire wolf's grapple.
It's pinned for this round, btw.
>>78596Or that.You should roll for luck to see if he comes across any nuns in his current state.
>>78600To be fair, it could be a blessing... Geddit? Cuz maybe one of the nuns is a changeling in disguise?
>>78595"they were missing chunks of their bodies, one was castrated."
Dark Star stares at his drink for a few seconds before taking a big sip of it
>>78603It's really not that bad for unarmed damage, I think.
>>78599Yeah, I don’t believe a +12 damage. That’s like a 34 strength
>>78596Down a dark hallway at the end is a door. There are doors to other rooms
>>78602“Well... that’s... interesting”
>>78605Iron walks to the door at the end. He doesn't want any scared nuns claiming rape attempts by entering their rooms.
>>78605Dark Star Takes another big sip
"it was......disturbing."
>>78606The door is locked, albeit from the inside
>>78607She pats his back
“There is worse to follow”
>>78605Yeah, I just saw that myself. I used the Dire wolf's base damage and added +2 for Augment Summoning.
Now that I look at it, it should be +8 (27 str). The Dire Wolf's Bite attack deals 1.5 it's strength modifier.
>>78609*It's actually 29 strength (+9).
>>78608Iron attempts to unlock the door. Maybe it's a simple lock to open without any sort of key.
>>78610We’ll call it a +9
>>78611Unlocked simply enough, and opens
>>78612Okay.
>>78611Sorry if I got a bit too excessively meta, considering this is just a dream...The possessed one is now pinned, by two wolves for this round. She can't move.
>>78612Iron proceeds to exit the corridor through it and closes the door again. He inspects the surroundings yet again for the exit.
>>78613I did not mean to reply to Iron there.
>>78615Oh noes, I cannot move. Hope Ash doesn't do anything naughty to me.
>>78613“RAAAAAAH!”
>>78614 Nopony seems to be looking
>>78608"i know. i have to go back i promised Spark. and the Barpony tells me that Oynx And Spark Havent Been Seen Since We left the farm. im worried."
>>78617Iron keeps trying to find the exit to this damn abbey. He huffs in annoyance at the size of the building.
>>78618“They are probably just taking their time”
>>78619He’s already at an exterior doorway. It opens to a moonlit night
[2d20 = 33]>>78617Sister Ash takes another 5 foot step back, trembling, and holds back her initiavive with a readied action as the remaining two wolves join the grapple.
The wolves automatically succeed on their grab checks. Both these opposed rolls have a +4 mod.
Being pinned by 4 creatures, it's not going anywhere.
>>78620Iron shakes his head. He needs to spot better sometimes. He proceeds to open the door and looks for any quiet places where he can do his business.
>>78620"i hope so. Do you have Work tomorrow?"
>>78622I take it Ash will Just sit this one out?
>>78624“I always have some tasks. Why do you ask
>>78623It’s quiet. There are nice bushes and trees around
>>78625He guesses a tree will provide solid cover from any wandering nuns. He goes for the one furthest from the abbey without going too far away so as to lose track of the abbey's position.
>>78622Technically, it should have been a +8 mod on each, but that's realy irrelevant at this point.>>78625Nope. It's her responsibility.
Sister Ash steps forward, levitating the knife that was used earlier; tears steaming from the corners of her eyes.
"... I don't have to power to save you.. but I can repose you..." She says, solemnly
>>78625"i wanted to take you shooting if you could find the time tomorrow."
>>78626It is clear enough to see the alley, and any nuns who would come outside would be unlikely to go there, as they would go to the garden
>>78628“What kind of shooting?”
>>78629Iron sighs. "Now to deal with the actual problem." He jumps a bit, putting his front hooves on the trunk of the tree, leaving him in a somewhat bipedal position. He then tries to remove one foreleg, see if he can maintain balance.
>>78627As soon as the possessed closes it's eyes from the minimum of ~20 points of damage it'll takes this round, Sister Ash telekinetically drives a knife through its heart in a couple de grace.
"... I'm sorry..." She , with a hoof on the tortured creature's cheek
>>78629"Target Shooting.or skeet shooting if your into that sort of thing."
>>78627With hateful eyes, she gives a last hiss
She fades into grey, and vanishes
>>78630This is... awkward, but neither does it fail
>>78631Newp! Fillie has other plans
>>78633>It disappearsFuck. I totally didn't expect that.
Okay.. what happens next?
>>78633Iron now brings his free foreleg and attempts to wrap his member with it to imitate the feeling of a mare's vagina. "She just had to leave me like this. What a waste of semem," He grumbles in annoyance.
>>78635>imitate the feelingFail. But it may be good enough to stimulate
>>78634And how does Ash respond
>>78632“Hmmm... we could”
>>78637She recoils stepping back, confused as she is upset.
"Wh-what's going on..?"
>>78637Iron thinks it is adequate. He starts stroking himself at a moderate pace. He starts having lewd thoughts of that yellow-maned, jade-eyed mare. "I will get her next time. If there is a next time."
>>78637"i know my Blue Rose Has Thorns. and id like to help you Sharpen those thorns."
I stumble in to find one player jerking it, another going shooting as a date, and the nun fighting something.
Never change faggots
>>78641Don't worry. We couldn't change if we tried.
>>78641He possibly can't sleep with his dick erect, now can he?
>>78643I mean, he could, but he'd embarrass himself in front of the nuns if they checked up on him in his room.
>>78643He can, but who'd want too?
>>78644>>78645Nah, it's impossible. The changeling tease left him too hot and bothered for simple sleep
>>78639He can almost see the jade eyes staring back at him
>>78638There is no foal, only an empty campsite with a fire. Then the setting shifts again. Zebrican meadows, tall grass and distant trees. Then, a horrid droning noise. Giant aluminum birds fly overhead in great flocks and formations, fast and low. They cast shadows that pass over the grass like large animal spirits running across it
>>78640“D’aww. Don’t you worry. I’ve been sharpening them for 20 years”
>>78647"im not worrying about it"
He smiles
"just offering a helping hoof."
>>78647Sister Ash is confused, but doesn't pay it mind (because she's dreaming).
>>78649Rather, she doesn't pay mind to the reason why the world suddenly shifted.
>>78647Iron smiles, not even caring if the image is made by his mind or real life. He grunts, slowing his pace, not wanting to cum anytime soon. "I hope she likes the show," he mutters.
>tfw have to share a continent with ziggers
>>78648She smiles back, and holds onto his hoof
>>78649The birds continue their flocked flying and dreadful hum as the fly forward, until the forests at the far end of the meadow erupt in explosions,
scene cuts to a twisted face looking back, and...
>>78651He doesn’t think any pony is watching, but somehow... he thinks she would like it
>>78653What kind of face?
>>78653Iron, shrugging off the idea that anyone is watching, decides to go as fast as he can muster with his hoof. Thinking of that strange mare. That strange, sexy mare. He also tries to maintain this pace for as long as possible.
>>78653Dark Star Strokes her face.
>>78654 Coal, green eyes, twisted muzzle
>>78655No way he’s holding that back. He explodes onto the tree
>>78656*purrs*
She’s still pretty
>>78657Not even a fortitude save?
>>78653Oh, this is the possessed one from earlier?
>>78658Actually, yes
>>78659This is not. It’s a different image
[1d20+5 = 17]>>78660Alright, time to impress a changeling queen with some high endurance.
If it's lower than a 10, feel free to keep the first outcome
>>78657"Whats your Favorite weapon?"
>>78660Then who's face is this?
Sister Ash steps back again, confused.
"Who are you?"
>>78652Also, I'm having a really hard time trying to figure out where Zebrica would be.
Is the map we're using at all similar to the Cutie Map, or the map from the movie? Is Kirin Grove part of Zebrica?
>>78664It's the map from EaW, which has yet to include Zebrica, actually. Judging from the "Zebrica Approach" ocean region, it's to the south of Griffonia. Otherwise it's similar to the pre-movie map.
>>78662“Sex” she answers, with a wicked smile
>>78663Only a fleeting view, not anypony she can interact with
>>78664Then don’t envision it. South of Equestria, and that all that can be said
>>78661Looks like he holds on for another minute
[1d20+5 = 23]>>78668More fortitude rolls inbound. He will last until he feels like it!
>>78667"well,if thats a weapon i hope i get hit some more."
He Laughs
>>78669So far, so good
>>78670She laughs
“I’m a passive intelligence gatherer more than an assassin. But to answer your question... I like the simple .38 revolver”
>>78671"thats interesting. got any cool stories?"
[1d20+5 = 18]>>78671Okay, one last fortitude save. If this works, Iron shoud've lasted 4-5 minutes of non-stop sexual stimuation. Hope it's good.
>>78672“The sad thing about this profession is that you can’t speak much of your adventures. I don’t know how much Seabreeze wants me to tell”
Roll a d20 to see how cocky she gets
>>78673Just... Iron still hasn’t
>>78674After he supposes that 5 minutes have passed, he decides enough is enough and releases his seed voluntarily. He can show her a better time physically if she approaches him.
[1d20+5 = 21]>>78667Back
>Don't envision itI'll take that as a no then.
Sister Ash tries to look closer.
Perception check.
>>78678Equestria at War. It's the Hearts of Iron 4 mod this game is based off of.
>>78679Ah, I've never played Hearts of Iron.
>>78676She relays a story about how while working in Zaphia, she was able to essentially walk into a meeting conspiring against the colonial government, and the dumb griffins even led her to foreign conspirators
>>78680It's pretty fun. I wish there were more diplomatic features in the game, though.
>>78681Dark Star laughs
"the griffons can be a bit slow at times."
>>78682Interesting. Maybe I'll try it sometime.
Now I'm wishing Knowledge (Geography) we're a class skill for me.. I erroneously assumed it'd be similar to the show's completed map. I should probably reconsider my character's backstory.
>>78684i recommend it as well. its really fun.
>>78684It's close enough to the Equestria's pre-movie map where you won't be too lost.
>>78681Uh, do I keep rolling fortitude saves until I get like a 5 or something?
>>78688
The closest location to the Dragon's Lair in the mod is The Mountain, which is the capital of the Dragon Tribes just to the south-east of Equestria. Not sure if that would suffice. Either way, you don't have to take the game THAT seriously.
Though, what's funny is that the second closest possible location of the Kirin Grove in the mod would be right on top of New Mareland.
>>78690I'm currently watching an archived stream of the mod. Here's the link.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8pF792fH0yg
>>78689Southeast was where I was picturing it. Somewhere on the east side if Celestial sea, South of Griffonstone (which I think became Griffonia, if I'm not mistaken).
Whatever it is is fine, so long as it's got dragons, mountains, and is at least partly isolated from the other races.
Do you have a link to the mod? I'd like to see it, just so I know about the existing continents.
Fuck! I deleted the wrong post.
[1d20+5 = 16][1d20+5 = 20]>>78693Alrighty, then I'll double the dice for double the gains!
>>78694For god's sake, she's going to think Iron is gay when she's not cumming for her.
>>78692Give me a bit, my computer's running a bit slow at the moment.
>>78695The figure changes shape, to that of a large male black diamond dog with black leather jacket
>>78697Iron is very taken aback from the sudden change of the image. He stops stroking his member, not cool with it His ears are drooped and he's frowning as hard as a pony's face could muster. "Ugh, I cannot even let off some steam now? Now that is just great."
It was funny.
>>78698Fug. That's bigger than I thought it'd be.
Kind of weird how the Changelings have so much territory though, considering they're dependant on other creatures for sustainence send the show implied they were pretty limited in number.
Video game logic, I guess.
>>78677>>78697Did Sister Ash see anything?
>>78692>>78698Nevermind then, someone already posted it.>>78701Keep in mind it used to be made up of many different, independent hives before Chrysalis united the majority of them under her rule.
>>78703She should have tried that before she attacked equestria then.
I never would have imagined the changeling's territory to be any bigger than the Crystal Empire, but I guess they had to balance the game somehow.
>reigndeer

>>78704Especially considering most of their land is unsuited for industrial development. Especially in the north, where states with zero building slots are common.The primary advantage they have against Equestria in the Great War is that Equestria takes time to fully mobilize for war, so the longer the Changelings can delay the Great War against Equestria before Equestria can mobilize on its own, the greater the chances the Changelings have at winning. Otherwise, Equestria will just end up steamrolling them, if they declare war too early or too late.
>>78705You'd think the race that micromanages the sun, moon and weather would have the biggest advantage when it comes to Defending their territory.
>>78706Gosh, I just realized that the existence of bombers and planes are going to make my few AoE spells irrelevant...
>>78706It's a bit difficult when all you have in terms of weapons are some rifles against a fully-mobilized army of tanks and motorized infantry.>>78707Unless a full-scale civil war between Restorationists, Communists, and the Black Hooves starts up, I don't think there will be many warplanes involved.
>>78708I never really imagined Changelings to be very inventive creatures. They seemed to be mostly hive-minded in the show, never shown using nearly as many tools as ponies did.
Also, motorized infantry is no match for ponies who could fuck-up an entire army by causing a blizzard or unrelenting rain and wind: it'd be like invading Russia in the Winter.
But again, video game logic.
Tbh, it looks like we're going to have to wait for quite a while until the conflict is settled in this story, considering we're level 5 and don't have any XP yet.
As far as I can tell, the story won't really be finished until Chrysalis is defeated and the princesses are freed, but that will probably take quite a while. I at least want to finish these sidequests to get some levels, then use my divination at lvl 7 to try to jump-start the story by scrying on key characters.
I had hoped the conflict resolution wouldn't involve a literal civil war, because I'm not exactly specialized in killing off freaking armies, nor would my character want to if she could avoid it. I get Transport Via Plants at lvl 11, and that could be helpful for party travel, since most forests in the universe have names and are adjacent to urban centers.
>>78709Well, I guess we can beat her ass nonlethally to get some honor and reverse-imprison her ruler and watch how her empire crumbles by lack of leadership
>>78709I'm just curious for when we get introduced to the main Restorationist quest giver.
>>78711My character would probably be partial to the restorationists. She came to Equestria to learn about ponish culture and clergy, but it looks like she'll have to help rebuild their society before she can get to actually study it.
>>78710
Hopefully we can get a crack at her some day.
>>78712If only I can release the floodgates already without a male figure trying to egg Iron on with seductive bulkiness and strength.
>>78714Have you not read what Iron's been doing after the failed wet dream turned changeling dream?
>>78715I'd be lying if I said I've been following it closely.. if I read too much about other characters separate experiences, i'll find it hard to resist metafagging..
>>78712We'll probably have to wait until we can survive out in the surrounding forests. I imagine any actively-participating Restorationists are probably hiding out in mobile camps out there, constantly on the run from Black Hooves search parties.
>>78717I've got quite a few spells that make surviving in the forest easy. Pass Without Trace is a 1st level spell for me too, so I could make the party virtually impossible to find in a forest; Druids are impossible to track, because of their Trackless step class feature.
Most survival checks are 15-20 DC, so I can take 10 on most checks that would be required to keep a party safe/sheltered/hidden/fed. Dark Star is a Ranger, so I HOPE he maxed out survival.
The forest provides.
>>78720As long as Silver's in the party, then, I think he'll be fine with his canned food and water while in the forest.
>>78720Cool, so we are all pals having a camping trip until party numbers become too high. Good to know.
>>78721Trail rations are pretty cheap. And again, I can take 10 on survival to provide for 7 people.
>>78722
Idk, I just know my character is better off in the forest than in the city because of her class abilities. I just want to find these kids first.
Also, I don't think she's very well off remaining in territory controlled by blackhooves.
>>78723Once we unite the party and maybe finish that one mission so those of us who are strapped for cash can get some Bits, I'm certain everyone would be willing to help Ash find the other foals.
>>78699She rolls her eyes, and changes back into the coal colored yellow named “pony”
>>78710Because of course she doesn’t have any generals, cabinet members, or political officers who could replace her
>>78683“You should see what griffin merchants fall for”
>>78720Or they could just, you know, buy canned food
>>78725I kind of made it my thing that I wouldn't buy things in general.
Wouldn't stop anyone else from buying stuff though.
>>78677>>78702>>78725Did Sister Ash manage to make out what she was looking at?
[1d20+5 = 20][1d20+5 = 12]>>78725Let a man, dreamIron rolls his eyes for his part. "Sorry I take too long," he mumbles. He regains his composure and keeps up the Lightning Foreleg Stroke Attack on his member once more. Rolling fortitude yet again, which I should be able to fail for once after 6 rolls.
>>78728Tell me that did the trick. Please.
>>78725>Generals would replace herReplace the queen?
I guess that means we'll have to find someone non-aggressive to replace her, if we're ever going to get around to saving the world.
>>78723>territory controlled by Black HoovesWhy would the jungles not be Black Hooves territory but Baltimare is?
>>78729“They can get overconfident, selling illegal goods to just anypony”
>>78728The tree is plastered in white liquid
>>78731In the mod, if Equestria wins and puppets the Changeling Lands, Thorax becomes leader of the Free Changeling Hives. No skittlebugs, thankfully.>>78732>Why would the jungles not be Black Hooves territory but Baltimare is?I think they mean that the Black Hooves' control of the forests and jungles is much weaker than their control over the city.
>>78732Iron sighs heavily. Finally, he thought he would have never get rid of that erection. Hope she liked the output, at least. He drops down from the tree trunk somewhat tired, landing on all fours. "Well, that about does it. I should be able to sleep now." Iron begins his trek back into the abbey.
>>78732Well, I thought they wouldn't really have adequate control over the jungle, since it's a jungle and it's hard to navigate by definition.
Not that I actually know what the situation in the world is though. I'm just trying to figure out the next step for my character. I just hoped for a plan that didn't necessarily involve direct confrontation.
>>78732"hmmmmm, Whats the craziest thing youve seen them sell?"
>>78734Wait, you're awake?
What time is it?
>>78737It's still nighttime. Just got hot and bothered
>>78734Like that tree is
covered semen
>>78736“What would you say is crazy? They’ll sell Unicorn horns”
>>78739Iron chuckles. Wonder if this is good enough for that jade-eyed mare. He really hopes she would at least help her out with some favors from that feat of potency. She surely made the yellow-eyed changeling lick his shaft for something, right? He ponders this as he reaches the abbey.
>>78739"but griffions are our friends why would they sell unicorn horns?" */r thedonald squeaking*
>>78742Fucking Griffins all need to fuck off back to Griffonstone where they belong.
>>78741If Iron has any secret admirers watching him from the bushes, they make no sign of their presence. The air is stil and the moon shines down in complete silence. Nopony has awaken or come outside
>>78742“Ask Celestia”
>>78744Iron opens the abbey door he assumes he has reached and enters the building, fully intent on sleeping now after that show he put out there. The nuns shouldn't care too much that a tree is covered in semen after all.
>>78744thinking horse noises
>>78745And it is so
>>78746“I’ll ask you... why is it you want to work for the Blackhooves?”
>>78744Can you please tell me if my perception check succeeded, or if she's even still dreaming?
>>78748The face flashes by quickly before the dreams return to the “regularly scheduled programming”
>>78747Iron backtracks his way to his bedroom, being sure to relock the door he had to unlock. He wonders if he'll ever see that mare in his dreams.
>>78749Sister Ash goes back to dreaming whatever it was she was dreaming.
I think I might go to bed soon.
>>78747"Well, it Started when my Brother was teaching me about Fascism. He told me its about the ponies and protecting them from the tyranny of communists and monarchists. what i fight for is very simple. just 14 words. "We must Secure the Existence of our ponies and a future for All Foals."
>>78753“Well, nopony else is going to do it...”
>>78754"even if no pony else will, i will still fight for it."
>>78755She places a hoof behind his ear. “You’re doing well so far”
>>78756Sorry to interrupt the tender conversation, but does Iron get to his bedroom without any sort of complications?
>>78758Sure, unless you want to roll for it
>>78759Before I decide, do you want to be awake for 20 more minutes to 2 full hours or just go to bed already?
>>78760I’m at a bar until it closes at 2AM (an hour and a half) and then have to drive for 30+ minutes
>>78756"Thanks. that means a lot coming from you."
>>78761Well, you do seem kind of busy.Iron reaches his bedroom. He now lays on top of the bed, eager for sleep to take him now. He may or may not have further dreams of the jade-eyed, yellow-maned creature, but he is excited about future prospects from those creatures. He may have a big ace on his sleeve for Ash's quest.
>>78764
Oh. I guess it was too good to be just dream manipulation by exterior forces.
Iron nods off, peacefully sleeping until he feels well-rested again.
I guess it goes to me too. Sleep tight everyone
>>78763The yellow-maned mare is but a figment of Iron’s subconscious imagination, a cross between tales of body snatchers told him by village elders, and posters on the walls of the Eastside tavern. But what they represent is all too real. Anypony, anywhere, anytime
>>78762“D’aww. So… what is your favorite weapon?”
>>78765it wasn’t intended as such at the beginning
>>78766"Well. my tongue is a pretty powerful weapon. *Dark Star winks* but if we are talking actual weapons. hoof guns Specifically revolvers."
>>78769She winks, and eyes his revolvers
>>78771He pulls them out of his holsters and passes them over to her
"Blue Skies Meet Ride the lightning and Seeker of truth."
>>78772“And I thought I’d have to reach down and grab them”
She inspects the guns, taking out each cylinder and spinning it
>>78773"you can still reach down even though you have them now."
>>78774She looks down the sights of one (loaded) gun, while blindly grabbing underneath the table with the other hoof
>>78775Dark Star Grabs Her Hoof and helps her find What shes looking for
>>78776“Quite a girth to this barrel” and says
>>78777"it has a bigger Girth than most."
>>78778She places the gun down and grabs Dark Star more firmly, while picking up the other gun and examining it. “.38 may not be the biggest, but it does the job”
>>78779Dark Star lets out a slight moan at Blue's tightening grip
"Yea, its a great caliber."
>>78783Still phoneposting?
Silver isn't quite asleep, yet. Instead, he's still in the tavern, trying to figure out why Star and Skies are acting all strange all of a sudden.
>>78785She's just inspecting the goods. Don't mind them.
Oh, I picked up some traits for Iron since I have nothing else to do. These are slow (+1/halve movement speed), abrasive (+1 Intimidate, -1 Diplomacy and Bluff) and relentless (+2 fortitude save vs tiring, if fail, exhausted), just to add some spice to the character. I also removed 4 skill points from jump and climb and redistributed them to Handle Animal because hey, why not?
>>78790We're using UA character traits?
I'llcheck those out myself then. I could go for a flaw or two.
>>78792Actually, disregard my answer. I understand now. Thought character flaws and traits were from different books.
>>78794UA isn't core material, just do you know that.
>>78795Oh, really? Damn. Hope the GM doesn't mind too much. Saw it on the character creator I'm using and thought it was okay to use it.
>>78785Blue Skies, who had been happy to look down the sights of a loaded handgun aimed at a wall, recognizes Silver staring at her and gains finally gains some awareness of her situation. She quickly becomes embarrassed at the obvious impropriety of messing around with guns in a public establishment that has ponies in it and where firearms are almost certainly banned. She seems to mouth out the words “he’s a licensed deputy” to Silver, before placing the gun under the table
*embarassed horse noises*
>>78796The Book of Exalted Deeds isn't core either, but I really want to take those Vows.
>>78797Silver just shrugs and returns to his own business. He hasn't had much cause to worry about Blue thus far, besides finding her personal political beliefs to be at least objectionable.
>>78790Looking at the list of traits, now, it would be kinda neat if the GM allowed us to use them. I'd already know which ones I would want to take/create for Silver.
>>78800Traits aren't that attractive to me, tbh. The benefits are insignificant, and the trade-offs are just one more thing to worry about. I guess they could be good for niche characters though.
Then again, I'm also partial trade Sacred Vows, so call me s hypocrite..
Is Onyx in urgent care yet?
>>78799>finding her personal political beliefs to be at least objectionableOh it is so on. She had other plans for her mouth, but a debate would be very welcome
>>78800I like how they could be used to five give characters more personality, which would be a definite help in role playing. I kind of don't like how they are attached to quantitative mechanical effects, as that encourages ignoring the roleplaying aspect and instead just trying to min-max
>>78802>it doesn't suit min-maxing, so I don't like it>>78803Well he sure as hell ought to be. Normally you'd want to avoid public hospitals when injured because of unwanted questions, but if you tell them "I got kicked by a zombie," all you are going to get back is "what"
>>78790>slowNot a good trait for a melee fighter who has to first close distance with an enemy, and is probably slowed down by armor anyways
>>78804>it doesn't suit min-maxingNo, it precisely for min-maxing.
They're okay if you want to make a niche character with a very particular skill set or playstyle, especially if you're playing a race that's less than suited for your character's class.
I just don't find very many of them to be worth the loss of versitality, but I could see how they'd be helpful for certain characters though.
>>78804Well, if that's the case, I'll exchange slow for brawler (basically get +1 on unarmed attacks and -1 on weapon attack)
>>78805If I were to choose acouple for my character, I'd choose Honest, Polite, or Distinctive. Those would good traits for a good-aligned religious character (especially a Lawful Good Paladin, who never ).
Cautious is a good trait to have for defensive/support Casters with good Will saves, since the Cleric should always be the last to die, and an arcane caster being a bitch who always runs at the sight of danger is kind of a given.
Uncivilized may as well be a class feature for Barbarians, because if you're not RPing with that trait in mind, you're not playing a very genuine Barbarian.
*who would never intend to trick people
>>78785>>78797Dark Star re holsters his revolvers
>>78804>She had other plans for her mouth, but a debate would be very welcomeSad Horse noises
>>78811>>78810It would seem so
>>78806Hey, if you intended to rank up Handle Animal anyway, there's a Presige Class you might be interested in.
Also, d20 Modern has a lot of decentfeats for unarmed combat, since they kind of buffed unarmed combat: It might be worth checking out, since we're using modern weapons in this game anyway.
>>78807>>78805Why do you keep replying to your own meta posts? Why can you not just say whatever you think you need to say in one post, and have respect for the fact that a thread with 2000 posts is difficult to load on a phone?
>>78811A use of the mouth to defend Pony Nationalism is a great use, don't be sad
>>78812"The only thing of yours that needs to be placed back in its sheath is your revolver"
>>78813It's for RP purposes, you know? You can't survive in the jungle without taming the wild around you, am I right?
>>78814You can use show last 50 posts as a useful trick to ease up RAM on your phone.
>>78813But GM is right, even scruffy said not to.
>>78813>>78815I forgot the link.
https://dndtools.net/classes/fist-of-the-forest/>>78814Idk. I just didn't think to add that part until after I posted it.
I'll try not to do that. It's a bad habit of mine.
>>78815>Last 50 postsThis, it's what I do.
>>78816Hm, how many skill point does a 9 Int Fighter have to pick up 4 skills in survival?
>>78814"Ha, Good i was getting worried there for a second"
Dark Star Takes it back out
>>78818That class was actually intended for creatures who started with 1 level in Barbarian (a 9 int Barbarian has 12 skillpoints to distribute at level 1).
It was just a suggestion, for a prestige class that increases unarmed damage.
There's also a good feat from the Tome of Battle you might like:
https://dndtools.net/feats/tome-of-battle-the-book-of-nine-swords--88/superior-unarmed-strike--2844/
>>78820Can I just pick this feat up by taking a flaw just like that? It seems there should be more prerequisites for this feat.
>>78819She bats her eyes at him, then gives her wicked smile.
"You know Dark Star, I didn't eat that haydog back at the theater. I'm feeling a bit hungry, so I hope you don't mind."
She lays her entire body on the seat, and then ducks her head below the table, extending her right wing under the table as well. She moves her left hoof lower, then lick's Dark Star's unsheathed 'gun,' and then unceremoniously and quickly places the entire thing in her mouth
>>78822Silver, Attack of Opportunity on that pussy, now!
>>78821I wouldn't say there should be more prequisites to that feat.
The most complained-about feature for monks is that their unarmed damage progresses so slowly, and they don't have the same advantage that Fighters do with 2-handed weapons.
The feat was actually made for multiclass Fighters and Swordsages who dipped just 1 or 2 levels into Monk to get Improved Unarmed Strike, but wanted to progress as a different class that wasn't Monk.
>>78824Oh, that's cool then. I'll pick it up for my kit.
By the by, the flaw taken was shaky (-2 hit chance on ranged attacks)
>>78822Dark Star trys to stifle a Moan
>>78823Thats a great way to get shot
>>78828Get shot a seductive look, I bet!
I'd tell her to stop but you did lick her pussy in a movie theater so you can't do that without looking like a hypocrite. Hope Sea Breeze or any Black Hooves supporter notices both of you.
>>78829*Does not notice
Mispelled
>>78828She's great at stopping the gag as she places it far down her throat, then moves her head up and down, wrapping her long and soft tongue around him around him. The other wing comes up a little, an moves towards Dark Star's chest
>>78831"Hnng."
Dark star moves his hips back and forth with her head movements
>>78829>>78830>tell her to stopwe are past the point of no return
Are there any plans to play today?
I'm going to be free for most of today, so I should be available.
>>78829That's what the wing is for. So no pony who looks underneath the table can see
exactly what they are doing, even if it doesn't take much imagination
>>78832She must love thick milkshakes, because she sucks like she's sucking pure icecream through a straw
>>78833Wait for Dark Star to get the succ and then we'll play some more. Maybe even watch the fourth sex scene at the end of the date. Some nymphomaniacs these two are.
Not that I'm complaining>>78834I sure hope it is.
>>78834"Blue, wow,hnnng youre the best"
Dark Star moves his hips Faster
>>78827Shaky is okay to take if you never ever want to use a firearm.
I'm tempted to take it myself. I'll figure at lvl 6 when I decide what feats I actually want to have.
>>78836Wait, is he just thrusting his whole engorged flare down into her throat rn?
Damn...
That's pretty cool.
>>78836She tries to mumble something, but her mouth is a bit full. She caresses him with both of her hooves now, and moves her tongue along him while sucking with the rhythmic movement
>>78839Dark Star reaches his hoof under the table ans strokes her face as he continues thrusting.
>>78838>>78837She'll be fine
>>78837Ponies have longer muzzles than humans
>>78840Her face is soft on the frog of the hoof, as is her tongue. Her mouth would be as well if it weren't so firm from sucking so hard
>>78841>>78840I know, that's what makes it cool.Also, what time would it be where the >Stallion Gang are?
>>78842Should be around 9-10 PM for them. Not sure if Onyx and Shimmer are even ok or died.
>>78841Dark Star with passion in his voice says"I Love you Blue."
>>78844This causes her to increase her increase her speed and the grip of her mouth , as she keeps going up and down, while fondling with her hooves
>>78842Like 10 11 or something
>>78845"oh Fuck,thats the stuff."
Should i make some rolls?
>>78846Are you looking to ejaculate prematurely already?
>>78846She moves her tongue up and down along with the movements, still going, but she wags her tail to let Dark Star know that although she may not be very talkative, She likes the affection he shows her. Her hooves fondle his testicles like a playful but gentle cat with yarn
>>78804I'm not sure how much of a good debate you'd get out of a 9 Charisma character Or me, for that matter, since I'm the one controlling him and my debate skills are next-to-nothing., but I think he'd be willing to at least attempt to defend the Harmonist cause.I'd also go for Hardy (+1 on Fortitude saves, -1 on Reflex saves) and Stout (+2 to Strength checks vs. Bull Rush or Overrun, -1 to Escape Artist checks) if I were to choose Traits for Silver.>>78823Hey, I'll have you know that Silver is a gentlestallion. He wouldn't ever dream of it without Dark Star's approval and taking Blue Skies out to dinner first.
>>78846Make a Constitution check to see how many rounds you last.
I'm bored.
>>78849Dark Star Leans Back in his Chair With a big smile on his face and takes a sip of his drink and strokes Blue with his tail
>>78850Well, she's dining right now on some phat dick, so that counts, right?
>>78851Watch out, you may get Iron's curse of no cumming at all after hours of stimulation.
>>78850>2nd spoilerFriendship with Iron has ended now Silver is my Best Friend.
>>78854I wouldn't add the fortitude save to sustained sex checks.
I could look up the BoEF rules, if anyone's bored enough.
>>78856Well, I did add fortitude in my case, which was pretty funny.
>>78855Wow r00d.
>>78853Hey, I never knew Blue Skies ate meat, too!>>78855Somewhere in the deep recesses of his Cyrillic mind, Silver lets out a single, solitary tear knowing that he finally has a best friend.>>78856I'm gonna have to give that a "wat".
>>78858You are soulmates! She eats dick and you eat meat. You are basically made for eachother!
>>78857>>78858I'm bored enough, so I checked it out.
It's on page 42.
It's a Constitution check. All participants roll.
>>78860Coolsies. Perfect to know for any changeling characters. I'll be saving this if I get the chance to be one.
>>78852wouldn't the tail be under him?The Playful girl continues her work, keeping up the rythmic pattern after Dark Star has stopped, still sucking and licking and bobbing
She still feels cold, but soft, with the left wing now back on her side
>>78860You guys come up with the craziest stuff.
>>78860I just remembered that Rangers get Edurance as a Bonus feat, so Dark Star gets an additional +4 bonus.
>>78861>>78863Some perverted nerd wrote an entire goddamn splatbook for this shit. It answers most questions that might come up concerning this and related topics.
https://www.scribd.com/doc/28468362/Book-of-Erotic-FantasyI found it when I was looking for rules concerning pregnancy a couple years ago.
>>78862Probably. so as much as he can.Dark Star Takes another sip of his drink.
"Fuck, thats good."
>>78865Roll 1d20 + Constitution + 4
>>78867O O F, I hope that's a good roll.
>>7886910 minutes? Is that a good time to last on a blowjob for ponies?
>>78867He can feel his love stream out of him in a steady jet. Blue slows down to lap it up, but continues her sucking
>>78869Stop trying to quantify sex damn it
>>78869>>78868>>78867>>78870It's good in this case, because there's only so long a mare can have a dick in her throat before she loses patience.
Technically, I would reduce the time ponies last, because much horse biology, but that's what the book says for humanoids.
>>78870Depends. Do you think ponies have the sexual endurance of humans or horses?
>>78872That much is true.
>>78873GM decides that, not me.
>>78871Dark Star Grunts louder than he would like to
>>78875The sudden grunt makes Silver look up from a very interesting stain on his table to look at Star, in case there's something wrong.
[1d20+7 = 25]>>78876Dark Star Waves
"i had a catch in my throat"
Bluff
>>78875She continues her soft nibble and sucking of Dark Star's genitals until she has sucked away all he gives. She finally raises head above the table and looks at him with a warm smile, as she continuously licks her supple lips and repeatedly swallows. She looks almost like a foal after suckling.
"Sorry, I was hungry"
>>78877"I had something in my throat too"
>>78877You had a what now? A catch?
>>78873I don't see any endurance penalty for centaurs, and centaurs are pretty much the closest you'll get to intelligent anthropromorphic horses with equine anatomy. If centaurs don't have any endurance penalty, I wouldn't give any to ponies, unless ponies were given some kind of redeeming buff like a bonus to appearance score.
It's a good thing Dark Star went to the Priest and not a doctor, and got his disease magically treated with care. The book treats Ghoul fever as a potential std.
>>78880That's what I was thinking too. Darkboi is lucky it worked in his favor.
[1d20+3 = 15]>>78877Silver isn't going to beat that anyways, but opposed.
>>78877>>78882Somehow, he doesn't notice Blue Skies raise her head above the table, and takes it at face value. He returns to the vary interest stain he was previously inspecting on his table.
>>78885She moves back to her wicked smile and big jade eyes. She places a hoof gently on Dark Star's muzzle
>>78883She waves to him, and she has that devious smile
I'll probably be gone for a short bit, if anyone needs Silver or something.
>>78889Sorry. I wasn't paying attention to the post numbers.>>78887The smile is a bit unsettling to him, but he waves back anyways.
>>78889>>78890Not fast enough.
Are we going to play today?
>>78893Like I said before, after Star gets his date finished and everyone goes to bed, we're not going to wake up and play.
>>78887Dark Star Strokes Her face and plays with her ears.
>>78894I'm waiting for a doctor
>>78895Her ears are soft, and bounce up and down in reaction to being touched, she moves her muzzle into the hoof
>>78896After a long wait, one takes him
>>78900"D'aww" She blushes
"You really think so?"
>>78901The unicorn doctor is a little rude when he asks "So what is wrong?"
>>78898Pretend you're going with Onyx, Shimmer
>>78902"A zombie thought I looked like a good snack"
>>78902Dark Star Has a Happy look on his face
"Yea i do. you're the sweetest pony I've ever met."
>>78903This.
It'll speed things along.
>>78904"Are you drunk?"
>>78905"You must not know me very well"
>>78907"Nope, just working in a necromancers lair"
>>78907"I know you just fine. But i can see your sweet side too."
>>78908The sorcerer snickers at the situation.
>>78909She smiles. “And I’ve got a taste of you as well”
>>78908Figuring he’s not going to get a non-sarcastic answer out of Onyx, he starts examining him. “You got yourself into one hell of a hoof fight. Are these bite marks?”
>>78911"Forgive me if i dont give you a big kiss right now. i would but. well you know"
Dark Star sips his drink
Attention, minor change done. Picked vulnerable (-1 AC) as a flaw and picked the endurance feat.
>>78911>Figuring he’s not going to get a non-sarcastic answer
>>78911>>78914This is what you get with a socialized healthcare system.
>>78915>Knows healing magick>Doesn't know about undead.Freaking godless commies.
Better pray you don't need surgery, lest they sew their scapples into the wound, like the goddamn maoists.
I g2g btw. Will be back later.
>>78911"Huh, it's almost like I said I was bitten by a fucking zombie. Are you denser than lead?"
>>78917He pokes at an exposed flesh wound. “It’s pretty clear
you aren’t as dense as lead. This will take many stitches, maybe a bone stint...”
>>78912She frowns at the snub, implied in the situation but painful to hear explicitly stated, and takes a sip of her strawberry mixed drink. She looks over at Silver
>>78918"Well can you do it, or should I see a doctor whose ears aren't full of shit?
>>78915>>78916Dark Stars 3rd act as mayor fix the health care system
>>78918it wasnt a snub.Dark Star Notices the frown
"Blue, look im sorry. i love you, and ill give you an extra long kiss later."
[1d20+5 = 19]>>78919“Of course I can.”
He starts cutting into special areas, figuring applying a topical anaesthetic could wait
>>78920She turns back at him. Then she rushes for his face with hers
>>78921>>78920Hah, sucker, you gay now.
>>78922>>78923who was the one that got raped?
>>78921hmmmm
>>78924No one, actually. We agreed to retcon that scene, right GM?
Low blow tho
>>78924She presses her mouth to his in a kiss. Her mouth tastes like strawberries and alcohol
>>78926>Yetim sure we will all fuck up bad enough to get it.>>78925F.>>78927Dark Star grabs the back oh her head with a hoof and leans in for a deep kiss
>>78928Well, at least you won't cower. That's commendable.
Question is, would you do that IRL?
*Snores in Draconic*
[Growling noises]
>Bad dream
>>78931is berry bed. Eerawn will slep on ur room cuz u feel bad and he don liky dat.
>>78930it would depend on how much i like the girl. and on how bad it tasted
>>78928And does she ever kiss back, exchanging fluids with him once again. He can’t taste himself in her though. She seems to have been very intent in swallowing any taste of him.
She places a hoof on his face, and her ears fall back. Her tongue is soft and gentle
>>78921After the procedure, onyx heads back to the bar to sleep.
>>78934Dark Star Starts Stroking her mane
>>78934>>78936Silver takes this moment to look VERY intently upwards and as far away from the couple currently sucking face as possible...oh, hey, is that bubblegum on the ceiling?
>>78935And I guess Spark returns to the void of nothingness he was at last time after waving goodbye to the bartender.
>>78932The fuck is this?
>>78935It’s more painful than the last two times, but the unicorn magic does it’s trick. He returns to the bar. Dark Star, the mare who first said he wasn’t a Changeling but then later accused him of being a Changeling, and Silver are there. But his bed is upstairs and waiting for him
>>78936Her mane is also relatively soft. She pulls away from him first. “Not too much. We are in public”
>>78937She pulls off of him, and waves at Silver again
>>78941"Lets head back to the hotel room."
>>78941It's code for "Don't worry, Iron will sleep on your room because you feel bad and he doesn't like that."
>>78941He can only guess from Blue's earlier behavior that she's waving at him again, so he waves back. Seriously, kids these days. Back in his day, you wouldn't ever see a couple holding hooves in public, let alone making out THAT hard.
>>78945Yeh! We'll soon reach dawn once more!
>>78941With nothing else left to do or think about and with Silver getting rather bored just sitting there staring at the piece of bubblegum that somehow managed to get itself stuck on a ceiling tile, he decides to head up to his room, do some push-ups for exercise and to tire himself out, and pass out on his bed that looks surprisingly comfy all of a sudden.
>>78944It’s still unusual
>>78943No shit.
>>78942“Alright.”
She wanted to either convince Silver of the error of his ways, or expose him as a subversive, but she needs to make up for sleep not had the night before. They walk the many blocks back to the Grand Baltimare hotel. Again, Blue comments on the ease with which they are able to enter at least the first and fourth floors.
>>78948She’ll get him next time
>>78949Dark Star is the big Spoon as they cuddle and drift off to sleep.
>>78949What do you think, GM, do you think Iron can manage a little juvenile sneaking to a mare's room?
>>78950She raises her tail as she lays in her belly in the bed... but that will work too
>>78951I don’t think any juveniles have snuck into Ash’s room, so there is nopony to manage
>>78952I think you misundertand. Iron is the juvenile sneaker here.
>>78953I wouldn't risk it.
>>78952Normally i would hop on the chance, but the other players are bullying me into sleeping as well
>>78954Aw, you're no fun.
>>78955>Doesn't realize Iron was about to start something stupidWake the fuck up and rut that mare or I swear I'll fuck her for you.
>>78956I said I wouldn't risk it.
It wasn't necessarily meant to discourage.
>>78953Well no shit
>>78955And thus, Dark Star is bullied. I don’t think it would make a difference though for time purposes
>>78959I'm guessing that's a no then.
>>78957>I swear I'll fuck her for you.
As it turns out, our characters can, in fact, go to sleep.
>>78962You're all pretending to sleep. I can see through your lies!
>>78964"Go fuck back to sleep, Iron. It is too late to deal with bullshit such as this."
>>78965Alright. You convinced me, but Iron was asleep. It was a changeling!
>>78961She is content just to be cuddled. She doesn’t need his penis, only his love
>>78967Sometimes, I wonder if Blue Skies was really a changeling all along.
>>78967>inb4 Blue Skies is actually a changeling
>>78966Missed the chance to get some cheap XP from knocking that one out, tbh. Then you could have had her to yourself to for the night.
>>78971You mean the dream changeling? But she was so polite and feminine, even though it's supposed to be hideous. I don't know who you're talking about.
>>78973It seems I misinterpreted the event. I only read it halfway.
I'm going to go on a limb here and say that the day is over since everyone is now comfy in their beds. We could start a new day now.
>Party is finally asleep
Oh shid, I'd better pick my spells for the day.
>>78976Please pick Remove Disease, or anything of that nature.
>>78977I'm not sure if we're going to join the party until the kiddies go back to the abbey, my dude.
>>78979Pleeeeeeeeeease! We love you long time!
>>78977That's a third level spell, m8..
I really wanted to try Downdraft of Hammer of Righteousness. Call Lightning is good combined with Cloudburst.
>>78980>old stallion cuddlesNah, it's fine. You can do it.
>>78972If you're not going to rut her.... She'll just have to do without
>>78971It's wasn't even a real changeling. It was intended to be a bad dream
>>78981I have no idea what determines what spells you can cast, and I honestly thought you said earlier that you were going to prepare that spell.>>78982Alternative offer: we join up, do all of our quests much faster, and make the GM happy since he only has to plan out quests for one group instead of two.
>>78984Yeah, sorry. Iron is a horny boi. For next time, make the changelings try to be more assertive and try to pin Iron or something. He'll not take that with grace.
>>78985Well, you should convince Ash about her quest, not me. Also, the GM should reduce the distance between bought foals if he aimed for faster quest progression.
>>78984Dark Star will stick with cuddles for tonight
>>78987If she's indignant, he can't see her face
>>78976Pls pick something like "fuck undead"
>>78989Quit whining and buy holy water already.
>>78989But that would get you undead aids
>>78990Where? GM told me there are almost no clerics here.
>>78992There are churches. Churches have holy water inside them.
>>78993Are you telling me I could have played....
GM, I have some words. Mainly about purchasing holy water
>>78991thats what cure disease is for.
>>78992Go to a church. They sell it at a non-profit price (20 gp).
Also, 1st level Adept NPC (altar bois) would usually be the ones blessing water.
>>78994Well, I suppose the GM is going to do a recap on everything and say his thoughts about the day. Wonder what he'll say about us.
