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

You 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.

>original color scheme
It'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.

Maybe. 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.

Alright, 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.

See, 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.

You 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.

This is what I mean somewhat. Need confirmation that the scales are that kind of yellow or if they are less shiny.

Well, 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.

If 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.

So, do you like the color proposed for the mane or are you looking for something less grey? We could go for brown mane too.

I think you are confusing not liking your character with retaliation for insulting one of his. Just a guess though.

But 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.

They're very, very shiny. Close to actual gold as possible.
The green looks good.

Listen 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?

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.

"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.

"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"

"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..."

Silver 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?

If he rolled a 1, that would start to be true. Dark tar actually still has like 23 hours on the incubation period though

Finally, 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

Silver 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?"

Not 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.

"They have enough ponies captured, already, without needing to rely off of love she receives from Her ponies.

Okay, 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...

The 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.

Like 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.
"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."

Like 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.

Hell, 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.

With 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.

"Celestia our eternal guardian,

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,

where all our tears are wiped away.

Buffalos 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.

He 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?"

That 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.

the 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.

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.

"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."

This 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"

"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."

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."
