Welcome to the latest thread of Occupied Equestria. Set six years after season 6, it presents an alternative history where Chrysalis chose a different approach to her second attack on Equestria. The Changelings have conquered half of Equestria, while an Equestrian splinter colony - soured to Princesses notion of harmony with all creatures thank to their dealing with griffins - Invaded and took the other half. In Baltimare and the Equestruan Southlands, the magic of friendship has weakened, as Communists, Changeling infiltrators, Fascists, gangs, and even ancient necormancers and dark gods threaten the city and the surrounding regions. This role play is based in large part upon the Equestria at War mod for Hearts of Iron 4, and uses D&d 3.5e mechanics.
In the latest episode, we are starting day 4. Ash is finally getting to sleep after dealing with foals that scarified animals to evil gods, Iron is disappointed to find that the only sex he is getting is in his dreams, Dark Star has declined to have sex, Onxy has discovered the joys of socialized medicine, I don’t know what Spark is doing, and Silver has discovered that when you don’t complete a quest, you don’t get paid for it
>>79000>checked>Dark Star has declined to have sexOnly so we can continue in the story, im a fucking hero
To be honest though, does anyone know what I'm doing? Do I even know what I'm doing?
>>79003You should sleep. You need a minimum of 8 hours rest to recover Arcane spells.
>>79003I think you were doing the thing. Not the one thing, but the other thing. The thing that we talked about, but not too long ago. The thing that you mentioned doing that everyone knows but you, yet you are the only one to know.
Am I talking nonsense yet?
>>79006Are you telling me we AREN'T getting paid for almost dying and getting ghost aids?
>>79008We've yet to suffer enough from the ghoul AIDS.
>>79000>Iron is dissapointed to find that the only sex he is getting is in his dreamsPoor boi, he only wants pucci.
>>79008lolno, you didn't stop it. You ran like hell because undead are pretty tough without preparations.
>>79006>>79008How much did they say they were paying you anyway?
>>79012Fuck if I know
>>79011Oh look who's grown a little big for their....
horseshoes?>>79009Yay suffering
>>79012I wasn't around for that. In terms of loot...I mean, we did get a Luna Nova rifle that we can probably sell for a decent amount, once we get it cleaned up. Silver's taking the other one for himself, though.
>>79008Not any more than usual. And we only get paid if we clear it all out. And we got beat by only 6 creatures. How many are down there do you want to guess? 30?
>>79012I wasn't told.
>>79015W0t? You wanna go? I clock your face off.
Let me finish Ash's quest so we can join up for the job, I guess >>79016>>79017Make sure you get your effort's worth. Wouldn't want them to short-change you on it.
>>79003That's what makes you dangerous
>>79002Lie you definitely could have RPed that before we started anything, especially if Ash starts earlier
>>79018He says, like it's a thing to be done in 30 minutes without any kind of help or resources
>>79019I think Spark has ranks in appraise, right?
>>79018I'll bash ye mum in you undersized horse
Thanks, we could use the help >>79018I mean, the quarry job would probably be a lot simpler and a lot faster to complete, so...>>79019And how much would be our effort's worth? Silver's kinda spent a decent amount of Bits on this thing, so...
>>79022You need to pump up those numbers, bro.
I'm not even sure, actually, if we could even get ammo for these things. They take special rounds with magic charges in them, and they're only issued to Special Forces. Blue Skies is probably the only pony the party knows who can actually buy ammo for it, maybe Dark Star (ironically). >>79025I never said or implied that
>>79024They are "apprentices" of the waterfront gang, yes
>>79022I actually find it amusing how the guns of the soldiers are paperweights
>>79028It's a normal Bolt-Action rifle, and basically a Lee Enfield SMLE. If I got the wrong name it was because I was posting from a phone at a restaurant and couldn't verify the name
>>79024Foals cannot be property.
The only thing Sister Ash disdains more than ponies who'd sell foals are ponies who think it's acceptable to buy them.
>>79028A lot.
It's a broad job description. You could count it as several jobs.
>>79031The normal bolt-action for Equestria is the Lavender Rifle, issued to all branches of the Equestrian military. The Luna Nova is the experimental magic-enhanced bolt-action rifle issued to Special Forces and Mage Divisions.
>>79031ok so going from 7 to 9 what gunz are available to me now?
>>79035The Carbine is the important one
>>79033Probably
>>79036Coolio. I'll wait for Ash to wake up and see which foal will she try to take back first, just in case she needs some muscle.
>>79036Good to know, ill pick one up next chance i get.
>>79037Ash would wake up fairly early, wanting a few minutes to prepare herself before prayers.
>>79036What if the character has 10 strength. Can he/she use bolt action rifles?
>>79032I sure hope so.
>>79031I take it, then, it's just a normal Lavender rifle with nothing particularly interesting about it?
>>79041You wouldn't be able to tell unless you could Detect Magick.
>>79042Well, a Detect Magick spell was used not 10 feet from where it stood, so I'd assume there's nothing magical about it.
>>79039Which is exactly what she does, unless obstructed in some way.
She takes a few minutes to wrestle her beautiful flowing mane into the religious habit, taking some time to recite the basic elements of magick as she does.
>>79044I'll take that as my cue to wake up as well.Iron wakes up. He feels somewhat refreshed even after the night's events. He cracks his neck to the side. He figures that Ash would want to stay a bit more in the abbey so putting the armor now would be a bad idea. He decides to look for the dining room for some grub, only having his leather belt, with Redclaw's memento in it, equipped. Maybe one could make a necklace out of that water bison Redclaw had with him, to remind himself not to cower from a fair fight next time.
>>79045Sister Ash prepares her hairdo quite early (before sunrise) and continues out of her room to go greet all of the nuns before prayers.
>>79044I take it not the 6:00 AM cleric language mass?
>>79041No, it’s just an entirely ordinary, entirely mundane .303 Bolt Action rifle with an affixed 6 inch bayonet and loaded with 3 or 8 entirely mundane non-special bullets - a 9 pound slender paperweight which mere mortals, in their boundless folly, thought could give them power over Nature and Creature.
>>79045They are not preparing food
yet in the kitchen
>>79040Yes
>>79047Iron grumbles. Well, maybe someone here can do a little necklace from the water bison he has. He looks for anyone who seems proficient with that sort of thing in the abbey to kill time.
Since everyone's getting up...After having slept soundly through the night, Silver gets up to start his morning routine, something he hasn't been able to do since before the war: a quick shower, breakfast involving one can of beans, some of his newly-purchased whiskey, and water from the tap, 20 push-ups, and a quick smoke.
>>79047In that case, anything Silver's ever said about his rifle being a Luna Nova is now officially non-canon and has been made unreal. >>79048Well... there are nuns
>>79049He can take a shower before Onyx. I’m less sure about whether he can cook those beans. There are no Fascists around to criticize him for smoking, so he can light up a smoke in his room. It really didn’t smell right anyways
>>79047>cleric languageAre they speaking Celestial? I actually wanted to include that as one of my chosen languages.
And yes, I had intended for her to attend the mass.
>>79050Iron shrugs mentally, maybe one of them can do a little crafting. He pokes one of the nuns.
>>79050While he smokes, he pulls out the Lavender rifle he took from the body of the one EDF corpse to take a closer look at the weapon, checking for any sort of damage that would make it inoperable.
>>79050Does Dark Star have any Dreams?
>>79054Roll Die
>>79053Depending on which rifle, the rifle of the first soldier (Prim Poppy I think) is entirely functional, if needing a cleaning. The rifle of the second soldier also functions, but had minor damage when dropped, most importantly causing the bayonet to bend
>>79052"Oh uh... Hello there" She is polite, if unsure
>>79051It's a language that was widely spoken by one prominent tribe in particular at the time of the sister's ascensions. The language of the Celestials was translated to this language so that the common ponies could hear the words of the Celestials, and it became the language of the Clergy. The merging and migration of tribes, besides linguistic drift, has caused the language to go extinct outside of its use in the clergy
>>79055"Hello." He pulls out the water bison. "Do you think you can make a necklace out of this and some string? It is very important to me and I want to see it at all times."
>>79055So, can I speak it if I choose Celestial?
Sister Ash politely greets each of her sisters as she arrives early for the mass, giving quick appologiee for the ordeal of the previous night.
>>79055It's the first one.Satisfied, he grabs it (ever mindful of the sharp bayonet), puts on his saddlebags, and heads out the door of his room.
"I suppose I have things I need to do, if we are to return to crypts." After stamping out his cigarette on the cold hard concrete, he makes his way back towards the sporting goods store he visited on the previous day.
>>79056Uh.... Pleasant. I can't imagine what pleasant Dark Star dreams would look like, except for some reason I see him as John Wayne shooting griffons
>>79058She may not enter already knowing it
>>79057"Hello," She looks at the water buffalo. "Oh, a nice wood carving you have there. I guess I could ask sister Thyme if she could make this into a necklace for you"
>>79059It takes some time, but he gets there
>>79060"I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you." Iron ponders. "Do you know if she is available at the moment?"
>>79060How about a blowjob from Skies while he shoots some changeling scum, the whole Black Hooves party cheering him on?
Or just memories of his brother, IDK >>79060Hes pretty blue pilled on the Griffion Question. So He would be shooting Ziggers.
>>79060Can she learn it at some point in the story?
I'll select Terran in place of it then.
How does the mass go?
>>79060You know, it just occurred to me that I don't know of many rifles that use .303 ammunition naturally.Silver greets the shopkeeper once he steps in. "Hello again. I was hoping I could get some service for this rifle today, and some ammunition."
>>79061"A small amount of time before early services, yes. Let me take you to her"
Sister Thyme is a nice little brown earth pony.
"I think so. Do you want something glued to the top, or a hole drilled through it?"
>>79062>BrotherThat would be a
bad dream probably
>>79065I assure you it's more common under the circumstances"Alright"
Happy Hunting inspects the rifle
"This is... a military rifle I see"
He cycles the bolt, tests the firing pin, removes the barrel and so forth
"It seems to be somewhat rusted and un-cleaned, but generally functioning. The wood is a bit stained, though I don't know if you care. hat kind of service do you want?"
>>79064Sung in part, spoken in part. Literally everypony except for Ash knows the prayers, so she is left as the lone pony in the room not able to follow along. It involves kneeling, standing, and sitting at various intervals, besides burning of incense. Sundew is yet again the Priestess for the morning mass
>>79063In fairness, because New Mareland now rules over more griffons than its own pony citizens, they have to play nice with the griffons as well... Besides having very large, very scary griffin allies. But shooting Zebras... He can gun down menacing Zebra pirates en mass, though they present enough danger to earn a thrill
>>79066"I want it drilled, but I do not want to hurt the carving too much. If the hole has to be too big, I would rather take this 'glue' you speak of." Iron smiles. "Thank you for your service, by the way. I do not think you are asked many times about making necklaces."
>>79066Sister Ash follows along, observantly.
So what languages can I pick from?
>>79066Probably so. I'm just more familiar with .30-06, .308, and 7.62mm.Silver is very much glad that his inspection wasn't too terribly off, considering his general lack of expertise with firearms. "I would like it cleaned, if it pleases you. If it is not too much more difficult, having unstained stock would also be nice, but it is not necessary."
>>79066"i came to Chew ass and shoot bubble gum."
>>79067"We can have a narrow hole drilled through near the top. You're welcome, I try to teach some of the orphans how to work with wood and make crafts so they can learn skills and develop cutie marks, should that be their talent. I can do this one after Mass"
>>79068Um... I don't know. With regards to the Cleric language, she can certainly learn individual words and rote memorize prayers in a few hours depending on how much. To learn an entire language including grammar would be time consuming, although not literally impossibleShe is able to pick up the times at which the kneeling occurs, at two points in the mass, one towards the beginning, another shortly after the middle
>>79069"Well.... yes, we can clean the barrel. We can apply a varnish to the wood as well. It will take some time to dry, but less than an hour"
>>79070"Yarr! We didn't come for Bubblegum. We came for your mares. Now give em' to us, for I won't be askin' again" Says Black Mane, the dread pirate of the Eastern seas, who sends forth his hench zebras.
>>79073"I doubt some of the colts like just crafting things. Maybe some of them want to show their strength rather than their finesse." Something stood out from that sentence though. "Mass? What is that?"
>>79073Out of the languages that I'm allowed to pick, which would be the most useful for studying clergy and interacting with extraplanar beings?
I've already got Sylvan as a bonus. I wanted a planar-based language.
Sister Ash participates to the best of her ability throughout the rest of the mass.
>>79074"You'd be surprised what colts like to do. Whether it's strength, finesse, speed, each pony has their special talent and their special place in society.
It's a religious ceremony. This is just an earlier one"
>>79076Iron seems to understand. "Is there something I can do while I wait for this event to end here?"
>>79070"More like shoot ass.">>79073He nods. "I would like this."
>>79073Dark Star pulls out a minigun
"not today you Zigger filth"
He Fires on the zebra henchmen
>>79077"Well what do you want to do?"
>>79075I just.... I don't know, I'm trying to think of this in terms of the my little pony world
>>79079>minigunMaybe, but that is a gun that would be introduced 20 years after the year of the setting
>>79078"Alright, we can do it"
>>79080Iron purses his lips. "I actually have no idea." Iron ponders for a bit. "Do you have the map of this city available here? I feel like I may need it for later. I keep getting lost in all the concrete."
>>79080I'll pick my languages later then.
Sister Ash prays throughout the ceremony. By the end, she would have prepared her spells list.
>>79080Well, there is "Pony" Latin, for Ash. And there is the Gatling Gun for Dark Star."How much do you require for this service, might I ask?"
>>79083"Counting the varnish? 10 bits"
>>79081"Why yes, we can get a map for you" She goes through some other rooms
>>79082It is so
>>79080well one of those browning crank guns then
>>79084Iron follows Thyme along, not wanting her to walk so much back and forth for him.
>>79084Silver is even more relieved that it's a cheap price. He puts 10 Bits from his bags onto the counter. "And how much for ammo for this weapon, might I ask?"
>>79085"One bit a clip"
>>79086She leads him to a location where she eventually pulls out a folded paper
"Here you go. A map of Baltimare"
>>79085He mows down the Zebras with impunity
>>79089Arrows can't possibly be as expensive as bullets.
Also, I think I might be ready to turn in for the night.
Goodnight everyone.
>>79090"I thank you, miss Thyme." He bows lightly then takes out 230 bits from his person and hands it over to her. "You have been of great help."
>>79092Suffice it to say, she is utterly stunned
"I'll have your necklace ready in only a couple hours. Thank you"
And should probably decline to accept the gift, but that can be tedious >>79093Iron nods. He then takes the map and studies it for any interesting spots near the abbey. He doesn't want the same incident happening like yesterday. "I can take the map with me, right?"
>>79090I'll assume that was meant for Silver and not for Dark Star.He puts down 10 more Bits. "Then I will take 10 clips of ammunition."
>>79091As it turns out, they're just over twice as expensive.Also goodnight. I think the closest language you're looking for in Ash's case would just be Latin, as that is a thing in this universe. >>79090Dark Star Takes aim at the captain
"Ready to die you watermelon loving fuck?"
>>79095"Yes of course"
I don't know what is 'interesting' and which incident
>>79096"Alright then"
>>79097"Does a Zebra ever truly live?" he asks, and raises his sword
>>79098Incident: Getting lost in the city and couldn't find Ash for a while.Iron decides to search some sort of fighting arena, maybe he can tussle for a bit with someone his size. That should more than enough time for this mass to end.
>>79098With that, Silver is satisfied. "I will be back in one hour, for rifle and ammunition. Thank you for this excellent service."
>>79100If that's in the city, it's not printed directly onto the map
>>79101"You are welcome"
>>79102Iron grumbles some more. Guess he needs to find it himself. What's with these ponies and their lack of fighting spirit? There should be a place where to put up hooves in battle. With that objective in mind, the map and his belt, he exits the abbey to seek it.
>>79104He explodes into a rain of watermelon parts, some of which seem to go all the way back to Zebrica
>>79103And thus he leaves the abbey
>>79102He steps out of the store, looking for something to do for an hour. Among the first thing that comes to his mind, as he checks his map, is to see if there's a nearby Museum of History he might be able to visit, and learn a bit about the history and culture of the region.
>>79106Hmmm... I want to say yes
[1d20-1 = -10]>>79105He rubs his eyes. Iron hopes the townsfolk know of any place to fight. He decides to ask any ponies who have no ties with this abbey about a place to fight unarmed between ponies.
>>79107Well, I'll take that as a yes.He checks on the quickest route to the museum before heading his way there.
>>79108They tell him that this is illegal, but underground fights for money do sometimes happen
>>79109West town, on main street, not far past city hall
[1d20-1 = -14]>>79111Iron is dumbfounded. Illegal, really? Wow, no wonder they can't punch to save their damn life. He tries some more to see if he can find someplace to punch some people.
>>79111Silver looks at the building before him. It's not really a building he would normally consider visiting, but seeing as he's fairly lost as to the history of the region he decides it would be a good idea to start learning.
>>79112There is one place...
>>79113This building is white granite with great columns on the front entrance, a Neo-Classical style
>>79110And yet... there are still so many more out there
>>79114He's definetly interested about this place now, but he tries to see how far it is from the abbey just in case.
>>79115reee it's a popular style for government buildings and this one has neither the green vaulted roof nor a dome
>>79117Well, I would assume he would wake up at some point
>>7911615 minute walk probably
>>79118Iron takes it and goes to the place marked.
>>79118Alright. what does he see when he wakes up?
>>79118I know, but as Silver is somepony who is generally unfamiliar with government buildings...Once inside, he takes a look at the nearest sign to figure out where everything is.
Iron now has replaced the vulnerable flaw with weak will since he just can't stop from following mare's advances sometimes.
>>79122*replace weak will with poor reflexes
>>79120He awakes when he hears a door close. He sees across towards a window on the other side of the room
>>79121What kind of history is he looking for?
>>79119It's a bar not unlike the Watering hole. When he asks, he says they sometimes have fights in a back room
>>79124He makes sure to check the bar's name and then proceeds to enter and look for this back room's entrance.
>>79124He looks primarily for Early Equestrian history, around the time of the unification of Equestria.
>>79126A number of exhibits are available. By and large this concern the situation between the tribes as described in the Hearths Warming
>>79125The Derringer Dale. A door in the back near the restrooms
>>79127He enters this back door, seeing that there's no one to stop or guard this entrance.
>>79128This one leads into a court yard. The plants have few leaves on them and there is no activity in the Courtyard
>>79129No pony asks him any questions, though some seem to look
>>79130Iron disregard the weird looks and looks for any sort of fighting activity here.
>>79127It's not exactly what he was looking for, but he takes an interest in the story of the Three Tribes. It was not something that was really taught in detail in Severyana, during his school days.
>>79132As per the history, the ponies previously lived further to the North, and were segregated by race. They lived together uneasily in an arrangement of mutual exchange. It was not until after the Windigo crisis and the migration south that they learned to live as one. This was the foundation of Equestria and Harmony
>>79131Yep. Already two ponies boxing. A large crowd gathers around them
>>79133>boxingIron, not wanting to be kicked out due to any breaking of the rules, decides to look for the pony responsible for setting up the fights for a possible match and how this fight rules work.
>>79133He gains a better understanding of Harmony from this.
Next, he looks for exhibits related to the indigenous ponies of the region.
>>79134"You both start at the sound of the whistle, and then you punch each other until one of you can't take it" says a sketchy Earth Pony
>>79135the particular region of Baltimare was inhabited by a tribe of Earth Ponies known as the Chincoteague. The consensus opinion is that these and a few other tribes of Southern Equestria migrated here centuries before the advance of the main Equestrian tribes, although a minority believes that these ponies were actually a very early vanguard of the migration of the Earth Ponies in the Windigo crisis, who settled after their ship wrecked there
>>79130is there a bathroom in the hotel room?
>>79136Iron shrugs. He expects some foul play from the opponents but thinks he can manage. He asks to sign him up to the next available fight if possible.
>>79136He looks at the exhibits to get a better idea of the culture of the Chincoteague, and what kinds of nearby settlements they created.
>>79137Yes, behind him near the door
>>79138"We can place you up next"
>>79139A woodland tribe, they would build permanent settlements and grow crops, living in huts crusted from sticks and logs
>>79140Iron agrees with this proposition. He tries to see who is the next opponent that could fight him.
>>79140He wonders if there are any of these ponies left in Equestria.
To round off his history lesson, he takes a look at the time period between Equestria's expansion south and the current era.
>>79141The door of the bathroom opens and... It's none other than the pegasus pony, with a freshly washed coat and mane that has been largely. She looks a little surprise
>>79142A very muscular Diamond Dog is up next
>>79143While Equestria has always been a multicultural nation, many specific locales have at times been dominated by specific races, and East Equestria has in large part been more earth pony centered. Hence, the Earth Pony tribe was the first to come down there, planting crops that grow in warmer environments, and settling in the forests. Mage Meadow Brook and her folk were among these. South East Equestria was not significantly inhabited by Equestrians in large part because of the menace of Dragons in the very nearby Badlands, Manticores, and other forest creatures, not to mention diseases. But as time passed, Equestrians became more able to handle these threats, and moved South. The Chincoteague, for their part, variously made war, tried to establish themselves, or were assimilated, until eventually Duke Berrydew deported them to another region. As for the area of Baltimare, it became more developed in large part thanks to its position by the Celestial Sea. It was easy to trade with Fillydelphia or Manehattan, and after Meananderly Polo, trade was opened up with Griffonia, including eventually the Griffon Empire and the settlement of the Dominion of New Mareland. Baltimare became involved in the Triangular trade with Zebrica as well, and merchants flourished in Baltimare. Though it was the seat of a Duke, free merchants succeeded as well, and it took hold to become one of Equestria's great cities, a center of resource trade between the South East, the Northeast, and Griffonia and Zebrica at times. It industrialized as well, although it never had the advantages that cities further North had, and became similar to the other urban centers
>>79144Iron attempts to size up the dog's strength and dexterity, see how strong and fast he is.
Tell me if I have to roll something >>79144"oh hey. i was about to take a shower."
>>79145>RollYes. I don't know what, but roll
>>79146"You can do that, I am getting out"
>>79147"To bad,i would have loved to take one with you."
>>79148This guy's a total bitch
>>79150Her look of... well, dread, has been replaced with a warmer smile
"It's difficult to have a coat that is too well washed"
>>79152>very muscular>a total bitchIron is unsure of his own perception, but he did ask for a fair fight. He awaits for the fistfight to start.
>>79155Welcome to low rolls galore!
>>79152"yea thats true, Why did you have a dreadful look on your face?"
>>79144Silver starts to see why Baltimare has so many large ports and dockyards. He also sees why New Mareland chose this as their initial invasion site. Though, he is curious, as he passes by Meadow Brook's exhibit, why a mage was among the Earth Ponies.
[1d20+7 = 9][1d20+7 = 23]>>79155>>79153Maybe I forgot to mention this but.... contenders cannot wear armor
He punches quickly, with each paw. He's fought in this manner before
>>79158"I was afraid I had worn out my welcome..."
>>79158Actually, the first point of invasion was Saltmane a few hundred miles south. Baltimare was the last hold out.She was a skilled user of healing magic and earth pony alchemy
>>79159"You Could never do that."
Dark Star gives her a hug
>>79159Okay then.Silver remembers that the pony at the potions shop he visited was an earth pony. He finds it interesting that earth ponies can utilize their talents in that way.
[1d20+4 = 16]>>79159>>79160I didn't bring it with me so it's good.Iron, trying to test out the diamond dog's ability to avoid his blows, goes for a very hard punch, taking +7 from his bonus hit chance to his damage.
Will you take into account the superior unarmed strike feat I picked up last thread. If so, I use a 1d6 instead of 1d3 for damage die.
Also need to highlight I have unarmed focus and specialization. >>79162"I Do. you make me Happy, i Haven't felt Happy in a long time."
[1d20+7 = 19][1d20+7 = 27]>>79163Knowledge of the land means knowledge of plant life and minerals. For what else is earth but the Keystone of matter, and what else is Chemistry but the study of matter?
>>79164No Tome of Battle, and don't listen to anything that particular player says
Iron hits, you can roll damage
Also, i hope it didn't need to be said, but no guantlets. Nonlethal damage exclusively
While the damage iron did has not yet been calculated, it most likely isn't enough to knock him out, so... He punches back
>>79165An ear moves
"D'aww, I'm glad to hear that. Mostly I just bring misery to communists and griffons."
[1d3+6 = 7][1d20+7 = 17]>>79166Rolling to confirm a threat, and for damage on the On-paw
[1d3+4 = 7]>>79167The Diamond Dog's off paw does a perfect upper cut on Iron, doing double damage
>>79168Okay, what is the math behind that?That's a lot of damage on that Diamond dog
Math time
Iron has +5 damage increase from his STR modifier, +2 with unarmed specialization and +7 from power attack. It equals to 14.
Still, he seems to be kicking my ass. That's like more than 16 damage to me already. Rolling next post.
[1d20+4 = 19]
Iron goes for the same hit like last time, see if he lands it. Of course it's non-lethal.
[1d20+7 = 11][1d20+7 = 15]>>7917428 damage actually. 7, 7, and 14 from a crit
The diamond dog is bleeding and clearly suffering, but he tries once once
>>79171"D'aww, do you really like my work in snuffing out traitors and subversives?"
>>79172Well, sure as shit lands
[1d3+4 = 7]>>79175At least the off-paw lands
>>79175"Yea i gotta say im a pretty big fan."
[1d20+7 = 11]>>79177Her wings raise up in excitement
Wait
Sense motive
>>79178She Senses he is being Genuine
>>79178>>79179She nuzzles him
"You say you need a shower?"
>>79180"yea, i like to take one every time i get the chance."
[1d20+6 = 11]>>79176>>79175This is going to be a clutch. If I miss, I lose. I say it now. 7 HP remaining, hoping I don't spill my spaghetti in this fight.Iron, feeling a bit more confident with his punches landing true, punches non-lethally a bit lighter this time, going for +5 instead of +7 sacrificed from hit chance. Iron is nervous. If he misses the punch, he'll lose.
>>79182Need to confirm he's hit before I roll damage.
>>79182>>79183The diamond dog manages to dodge out of the way of Iron's punch. very lucky, because he knew damned well that he couldn't afford even a weaken punch from the Earth Pony
>>79184Shit, I'm done for. Good fight, doggo.
[1d20+7 = 10][1d20+7 = 13]>>79184>>79185With the last of his stamina, he throws two more punches
[1d3+4 = 5]>>79185>>79186One of his punches - the punch with his very lucky off-paw - lands
Iron has suffered 35 damage thus far
>>79181For a moment, she thinks she is talking about taking down traitors or subversives. Then she realizes he is talking about a shower
"Well... we have one back here"
[1d20+7 = 27]>>791872 HP leftIron thanks the gods that the dog missed one of his punches to grant him a shot of beating him. He will not let it go to waste. Iron sacrifices +4 of his hit bonus chance and strikes with the last of his might at the dog non-lethally.
[1d20+7 = 24]>>79189Well... Rolling to confirm threat
[1d20+7 = 9][1d3+10 = 11]>>79189Iron takes the chance to strike again non-lethally for good measure.
>>79191Ah, shit. Hope I knocked out the doggo.
>>79191>>79191Okay. That you cannot do. You cannot strike again for good measure in the same round
>>79194Nevermind, didn't see the confirm you made. It's 22 damage.
>>79192There is a shower at the end of the room, fairly large with pink granite flooring. There is also a large tub. Remember that this is a reasonably upperclass and fancy hotel room, even if it isn't quite a suite
>>79195Confirmed. Iron punches the Diamond Dog right in the temple, knocking him out instantly
>>79197Iron rejoices in his victory, knowing it was pure luck that he won the battle today. He checks to see if the dog combatant is okay. He gained his respect from that battle of hooves... or whatever this dog has for hooves.
Wait. The Diamond Dog's on-paw should have landed and hit Iron in the last round as well. Iron should have lost that. Oh well
>>79198Well... He's on the ground
>>79196>>79195>>79197Remind me not to hoof fight iron.
>>79197Dark Star looks impressed
"How long before you have to go to work?"
>>79199Don't know if you did it on purpose or not. I'll take the victory for Iron's prideIron looks to the crowd around him, seeing the reaction from them.
>>79201>Iron's prideDamn it, I should have gone with that strike hittingSome sad, some triumphant, depending on who they bet on

>>79203you Ain't gonna do shid. m9>>79202"well i was gonna go to the tavern and get Silver then we'll look for Oynx and Spark. then we were probably gonna go back to the farm."
By the by, I took out weak will since Superior Unarmed Strike was not counted here.
>>79166Silver checks the time, to see if it's been at least an hour since he arrived at the museum.
>>79203r00d, d00d >>79207It can be, unless he wants to know more
>>79205"You mean that necromancer work you needed an exorcism after doing yesterday?"
She gets into the shower
>>79204Well, that hasn't changed. I did give some money to the abbey so I have good boy points.Iron, satisfied with his fight and understanding he can't take another beating, goes to that shady Earth Pony, maybe he has some medical treatment for the fighters after the fight.
>>79210"Drink some cold water. Alcohol will make you feel better, but it won't help you"
>>79208Dark Star gets in the shower to
"Well... yea. i promised spark that i would help him clear them out."
>>79207>>79205Eh, I'm not really going to. Skies is Star's alone, after all.
>>79208Silver makes his way back to the store to check if his rifle is ready for pickup.
>>79211"Do I get something after the fight? I do not think you are doing this out of practice of sport." Iron, nevertheless, searches for some cold water to drink. He definetly needs that. Maybe he should meet up with the dog later, some sparring matches against him are quite thrilling.
>>79212"Well, I won't get in the way of work with your buddies"
And controls for the shower are there on the side
>>79214Indeed it is
>>79215"Of course not. People place bets on who they think will win, and we get a portion of all winnings"
>>79217"Ah, thank you!" He takes a look at the rifle at the store once he gets there.
>>79217Iron ponders. Maybe next time he visits, he may be a little more "assertive" to this pony, but right now he doesn't want to risk it. "It is alright, I did come here to battle, not for money. Say, do you know who the dog whom I fought was?"
>>79218The varnish has changed the color of the wood from a sort of orange to a sort of brown. Just as well, considering the rifle's butt has what seemed to be liquefied flesh n it
>>79219"Rover De Marquise. A regular here, and popular too"
>>79213>pic related>>79217"We are gonna pick some stuff up to help with the threat."
Dark Star adjust the water to where its hot but not scalding.
>>79220Only slightly sick to his stomach at the thought, Silver seems satisfied with the work. "I will have to remember you, if I have need of your services in future."
>>79220Iron nods. It should've gained some renown for this fight in here.
Even though he is one level lower than Iron but nevermind that "Any other regulars to match my strength? I have the urge to fight some of the others later, after I heal my bruises.
>>79221Skies shakes briefly, and extends her wings slightly, almost like a bird bathing in water. "I like it warmer as well. Are you going to pick up a priest? Because that is basically what you need"
>>79222"Come back any time." Says Happy Hunting
>>79223"We have a few" Says the pony, "If you have a taste for getting punched"
>>79226Iron nods. "I may come back later if I need some bruising to give and take. For now, any good place to heal myself close from here?"
>>79227"I wouldn't recommend going to a hospital. Just take some aspirin and sleep a couple hours. Drink some alcohol if you need it"
>>79224He grabs his rifle and the ammo he purchased, and heads out the door to make his way back to the tavern and wait up on the rest of the party, should they try for the crypts and the quarry again.
>>79224"A Priest? yea that could work. we were gonna pick up some holy water too."
Dark star Rubs blues back
>>79228Iron rolls his eyes. "If you say so. I will take my leave then." He decides to leave the building, all of his bruises on full display. He wonders what an aspirin is as he walks out. Maybe the abbey nuns will know what he's talking about. He starts travelling back to the abbey. They should have ended their mass already.
>>79230She stretches out to let Dark Star do this as well as possible, and tries to spread her wings, although that is not really entirely possible. The hair on the coat is a bit short, still soft, and he can feel harder bone underneath
>>79231Well, yes, but....
>>79232But what? Do I need to come back and intimidate the stallion for medical treatment?
>>79232After hes rub her back he moves to her chest and stomach
>>79233Well, does he want the nuns to see him as such?
>Intimidate the guy who runs an illegal operation that makes lots of money and is filled with extremely strong criminals, while Iron has no armor and no weapons. And by the way, Iron wants to go back.Like how well do you think that will go down?
>>79234Her chest has the same soft coat, but also hard ribs. Her belly has some resistance when you press into her, but she is skinny. The wings are sort of in the way of part of the chest
>>79235Dark Star moves on to her thighs
>>79235Iron thinks about it more closely. Maybe he may have a doctor in the audience of the boxing ring, eager to take advantage of the lack of medical treatment which can restore his health. He returns inside, looking for this type of pony whatever race he is inside.
>>79236Though her barrel narrows around her belly, her hindquarters are meatier, as there is some muscle on the flanks and for the rear legs. Her Azure white coat is as soft as ever here. She reacts somewhat pleasured, and spreads her legs slightly
>>79237A pony has an ice bag over De Marquis's face
\r
>>79239Iron approaches the pony in question and starts conversation. "Excuse me for interrupting. You seem to be taking care of my former opponent here well. He is a good fighter. I honestly was lucky with my blows to have won against him." He smiles at the pony. "Are you by any chance a doctor?"
>>79240"Ooh!"
Supple though fairly small, rubbing them causes her to flip her tail
>>79241"No. I am his manager. Nice job, by the way. Even if you lost me a lot of money"
>>79242Dark Star keeps at it but he focuses on her nipples
>>79242Iron nods, a bit uncomfortable. "Say, you seem to know your way around this business here. Do you have anypony that can patch me up, by any chance? I do not want too much attention on me when I go outside with all these bruises your partner gave me." Iron chuckles a bit. "I heard Rover is a regular here so you should know your way around these parts to have it all covered."
>>79243"oooooh...."
Soft, then firm, then harder. Never fully firm, because the warm water softens them."
>>79244"What do you want? Stitches? A bullet removed? Well let me tell you. There is no cut skin to stitch. There is no bullet to remove. You feel sore and you will be for a while, but you don't have broken bones or cut skin. The only cure for that, unless you insist on magic, is to tough it up and walk or sleep it off. Drink some vodka, that'll make you feel better"
>>79245Iron is not amused. "I just need to mask the bruises for a while at the very least. If I go to my destination, ponies are going to panic." Iron ponders. If he doesn't have any answers, maybe someone else will. No way these ponies don't have a doctor in tow to cure fighters from their bruises. It's illegal, after all.
>>79245Dark Star blows on her ear and kisses her Neck
"you're the most beautiful mare in all of the world."
>>79246"Wear a robe"
Indeed, that seems to be what he is doing with De Marquis. That, and ice. Mostly ice
>>79247She shivers, and has her warm smile, while her ear flaps down when Dark Star blows on it
"D'aww"
>>79248Well, that's a possibility. "Is there any robes around here for me to put on?"
>>79249"You can get one at a store, or buy one here"
Damn it, I have to go to sleep now
>>79250"Alright. Thank you for your patience and cooperation." He lightly bows to the manager. "Hopefully I can fight Rover again some other day." He chuckles.
>>79252No problem with me, good night GM. Wow, that's more posts than I expected.
Maybe I should have stayed up.
>>79255The group got busy while you were gone, it seems. Certainly stayed up after I had already passed out.
>>79255Well, do you want some potions for Ash or your vow of poverty refrains you from doing that?
>>79204Hey GM, how did the doggo have two weapon fighting with such low dex score?
Doing a small rolecall, see who is here at the current moment.
>>79263>>79262Coolio. GM will take a while to reappear by how long he was awake last session. Do you have any plans to fight the undead already?
>>79265You just had to appear after I said you would be a bit late. Oh well. If you feel like GMing, I had planned a visit to Cauldron, both as a little friendly chat and a potion seller, and since I have the map, I should be able to find the address..
>>79261I'm here, if we're doing stuff.
>>79264The only plan I have is to get you guys to go in there and I provide my spells... however they can help. Other than that, I guess pray to the dice gods for mercy this time around.
turns out I have been calculating my spells per day wrong, don't know if I should keep going with what I have already stated, or just go along with the new amount >>79268Oh. That... doesn't sound very planned. I suggest buying holy water at a church if you can.
>>79268Silver's plan is going to be to stick with the other Fighter(s) and try to keep the undead as far away from you, Dark Star, and maybe Ash as possible.
>>79269You sound like I had a plan to begin with. I guess I could try that, but I need my character to have a reason to learn of this strategy.
>>79271>have a reason to learn of this strategyRemember the fact that Dark Star had to go to a church to dispell his sickness? That's enough reason to do that.
>>79272Well, I could come up with the right dialog to figure that out, but Spark never quite learned what became of Dark Star. Once I find him again, then I should be able to.
>>79265Judging by your lack of response, I'll assume you're readyIron decides he does not need any robes. He simply needs to magick his wounds away, and he knows the pony, or shall we say zebra, to do the job. He remembers the address Cauldron said and looked for the restaurant that is there.
Silver should be back at the tavern right now, waiting for the party to get back together.
Onyx gracefully falls down the stairs from his room to the bar.
>>79277Since that is the place everyone seems to gather at, Spark heads to the tavern with our grumpy bartender after leaving the Void of Nothingness.
>>79278Once inside, I wave hello to Onyx.
"Are you feeling any better after last night?"
>>79278Silver looks up from the table he's sitting at with a map in his hooves to look at Onyx's limp form. "Ah, it is good to see that you are still alive after all."
>>79279Next time can Onyx join Spark in the void?
>>79280"Feeling a bit better. Are you holding up?"
>>79282I hold the glass up beside me.
"Yeah. I hope Dark Star made it. He didn't look too good."
>>79283Silver turns to Spark as he speaks up. "Do not worry about Dark Star. I made sure he received appropriate aid."
>>79282>>79283"Now, if you would both come here, we have plans to discuss."
>>79266My parents are telling me to apply for jobs and get my license, and I just came back from the dentist, so I don't think I will be super-active today
>>79285Alright then, we'll be patient.>>79287In front of him is a crude-yet-serviceable map of the crypts they explored underneath Curwhinny farm, or at least as much as they've explored, as well as a list of notes about the enemies they faced and what they'll need for a return trip, made using a "borrowed" pen and a bar napkin. Silver's marked a few key points of interest that they found yesterday. "I understand if you are hesitant to go back to tunnels, but I am in personal need of Bits, and I do not like to leave jobs unfinished. If either of you do not want to go back, please speak up now."
>>79288"I am contractually bound to do this. I will do this regardless of risk and reward."
>>79289>>79290Silver nods, and turns to his map. "When we took job, we underestimated difficulty of our tasks, and we were not prepared. I do not intend for this to happen again." He points to where the skeletons they faced appeared out of thin air. "When skeletons came at us, they came from blue mist, with no sign of them ever having been there in first place. Same blue mist as when I disturbed ashes in urns. It is obvious they were summoned. By what, I do not know, but we must be ready for fight at all times.
"Best way to kill skeletons is with bludgeoning strikes. It is most effective way you can shatter their bones. If you have funds, and strength to wield it, I recommend buying hammer. Otherwise, best weapon you would have against them would be your hooves. As for other undead, they do not seem to have any particular weakness, but I would keep noses open. I do not know how many more are in tunnels, but they are easy enough to find before they find you. If we get into fight, try to trip them. It makes them much easier to hit, at least in melee." He points to Onyx. "You have halberd, right? It should be decent weapon for tripping. And it should not leave you open to biting like hooves would.
"When we go back down there, Onyx and I should take point. We are strongest of group, and most resilient. We have better chance of avoiding infection, I would imagine, than rest of us. We also need to find weapons that are specialized against undead. After Dark Star got infected, I took him to cathedral not too far from quarry. Father there, he is knowledgeable about undead. Perhaps it would do us well to ask him if he knows of ways to deal with them easier."
"Finally, it would be good idea to bring someone else along who is good with healing, or curing disease. Dark Star, he mentioned something about nun, or not-nun, who might be able and willing to help us in this regard, but he did not give specific location as to where we may meet her. If either of you know where she might be found, then we should go to her and ask for her aid."
>>79258He might have been a Ranger. Ranger's don't need to meet the ability requirement.
>>79261It's going to be quite a while until I can be fully available.
>>79292Unless he multiclassed as a ranger, I find it unlikely, since he is explicitly stated to be a fighter.
>>79291"Ah. I think I know the sort-of nun you are talking about. I don't remember where she went though."
>>79294Silver's ears perk up, at the notion that they might be able to find her. "Do you know of anything identifiable about her? Anything we could use to ask around religious institutions for her whereabouts?"
>>79295"She is a kirin. Kind of nervous in tough situations though. Last I remember, she was looking for lost foals. She probably went with that jungle native that you tussled with for money, bartender."
>>79258He might have been a Ranger or a Monk.
>>79261It's going to be quite a while until I can be fully available. I'm on a trip, and my cell data isn't working for some reason.
>>79296"...Kirin? What is kirin?"
>>79298"It's a pony, but kind of like part dragon with a wild mane. You will know what I'm talking about when you see her."
>>79299"Hmm, that is something I have not heard of yet...and you say she is looking for lost foals? And she is with jungle native?"
>>79300"Yeah. They worked with us before. I told her I would join her, but the two left without notice. I hope they are doing well in their search."
>>79301"...So, there is dragon-pony nun, and her Chincoteague escort, looking for lost foals across city...?" And here Silver thought he had heard some pretty crazy stuff before now. "It might be likely half of city has heard of or seen these two already. With luck, they have left big enough trail for us to follow."
>>79302She didn't ever respond to my suggestion that I should go along. Maybe next time.
>>79303"Most likely. So, are we off to find them?"
>>79304"Yes, unless you believe it is best to wait for Dark Star's return. Though, with that marefriend of his, we might be waiting for while, if that is case."
>>79305"It would be best to at least tell him so he doesn't wander back in the quarry looking for us."
>>79306"Maybe leave message with Glass, if he sees him come back to tavern?" He thinks for a couple seconds. "Oh, it would also be good idea for you two to buy some healing potions, in case we can not get this kirin to join us. I only have four left for myself, and I do not have many spare Bits left to purchase more. And as lucky as I might be with medkit, I do not think it can do much good if you get torn to shreds by undead."
>>79307I hand you 500 bits.
"I'll see about potions."
>>79310"I went to potions shop yesterday, before we left for quarry. I can show you."
>>79308Silver's eyes go about as wide as dinner plates at just how much money Spark is willing to hoof out, and he looks just a little flustered. "I...I-I...b-but..." His voice goes quiet. "...that is lot of Bits to just give out like that...are you sure?"
>>79311"You are all technically my hired help, and until the contract is fulfilled, I can't let you go without bits, especially going in there. Don't worry about it."
>>79312"..." He silently takes the Bits offered to him, but despite his lack of words, his face says everything he would need to say about how grateful he is. After the Bits are taken, that's what he speaks. "If you are needing me to pay you back after job, I will gladly do so."
>>79313"That won't be needed. I underestimated the severity of this task. Making sure you are well equipped if you are still up for this job is my duty. Just promise me you will help me get them to pay us well for what we have had to endure so far. I don't exactly have the muscle to back up any threats if they short change us."
>>79314Silver gives him a determined nod. "I will make sure of it."
Iron looks very intently at his map for the address Cauldron said to him yesterday. It should be a restaurant.
Just bumping
I'll be able to play in about an hour.
>>79317Let's hope the GM can do the same. I think it may take all of his free time for his current situation.
>>79319Fair enough. By the way, can you drink potions or do your vows interfere with it?
>>79320A character who had the vow of poverty would refrain from intentionally buying/consuming bottled hit points, because they're expensive items like any other potion and such a character is sworn to donate all of their possessions to the poor.
It doesn't prohibit the character from being rescued with a potion if they were dying though. That's where the permission ends.
>>79321What if another character forced you to drink it?
>>79324I guess I should spoiler this tooWouldn't that be an extreme circumstance to be forced to drink something expensive, therefore having to temporarily lose the vow?>>79323Hello. The GM is busy at the moment, so no sexy times in the bath for the time being.
>>79323I think Dark Star was last blowing air into a pretty pegasus pony's ear and watching it twitch?
>>79323I just got back to my place-of-consistent-wifi.
>>79327His Magnum Dong was expanding
>>79251 >>79334We're just chilling. I just ate a tuna sandwich. Iron is going to a particular restaurant that he has friends in.
>>79333>>79333She looks backwards at Dark Star with her smile and bats an eye at him with thick lashes. She flips her mane, raises her tail up, and then raises her right wing up so that it interrupts the shower of water, and causes water to trickle down her back
Okay, so last where I was at, Sister Ash was finishing her prayers and preparing her spells.
I guess Caleb was just laying in the yard and lazing about wherever he's allowed to be, like a dog would; maybe playing with the foals if he had the chance.
Iron is currently looking at his map, looking for the address Cauldron told him where the restaurant is. She may be of great help from this predicament.
>>79337Good to hear
>>79335nice was it a good sandwich?
>>79336Dark Star Rubs her horse pussy with his Dong
>>79340I guess it was. A slice of tomato, some fresh tuna and a bit of mayo between two slices of bread does wonders to quell hunger by a lot.
>>79339Iron has a date with cauldron?
>>79341i was about to go get a Shredded chicken sandwich.
>>79338What kind of doggo is caleb?
>>79342What? No. He just wants to visit the restaurant to see how she's doing as well as buy some potions for his wounds and for the road.
I think the GM should tell me if I buy too many potions to fit my belt. >>79340But here’s the question. How does the Earth Pomy accomplish this?
>>79344Potions are typically thin, cylindrical containers measuring at no more than an inch wide and 2 inches tall (including the stopper), containing only an ounce of liquid.
You can carry a whole bunch of them. They don't spoil unless altered by magick or intentionally tampered with.
Also, wasn't Couldron a Rogue? Only a Cleric/Adept/Druid/Bard would be capable of making healing potions, if they had the feat. Only spellcasters can produce alchemical items too.
>>79347GM said through Cauldron that her brother has a potion making business if I'm not mistaken.
>>79348Ah.
Could try asking the church too. Healing potions may be a source of revenue for the clergy.
>>79349I'll tangle with both good and evil as a true chaotic neutral. Besides, some quality time with Cauldron won't hurt anyone.
>>79350But he’s a quadruped, and so the penis would be underneath him, so it would be difficult to make contact by any means other than mounting her....
She purrs
>>79354then yea Dark Star Mounts her
>>79355The little pegasus’s shoulders are firm as he stands on her. Her vulva is soft, warm, and wet
>>79356Dark Star Rubs his Penis back and forth to stimulate her , but he doesnt penetrate yet.
>>79357Welcome back. Star is sticking his penis in Skies again.
>>79359I can see.
After Sister Ash finishes her prayers, she helps the nuns and foals with their morning chores.
>>79358She points her her upwards, and looks into the eyes of the pony above her. “Oh Dark Star...”
>>79360I think Star comes/cums first, then we can continue with our things. Maybe to sync up Sliver, Onyx, Spark and Star's timelines.
>>79359>in>>79360I need to look up the most draconian forms of Catholic school punishment before I can complete that scene
The
>>79363I still have job applications
>>79361"oh yea, you like that huh? Dirty mare."
Dark Star Continues to stimulate her without penetrating her
Oh, hey, people are back.
>>79365She continues to look upwards at him, as he looms over her.
“You silly mud pony, my coat is clean”
>>79364Ah-ha! I knew it! Master detective that I am!
Sex is pretty easy to mold through. I can attest to that.
>>79365Gee, kinkshaming after that licking at the movies? Really?
I have to step out again for a bit.
>>79368"mmm are you sure? i think you missed a spot."
Dark Star Sticks it in
>>79373She laughs mischievously, and then backs herself onto him. She grips down.
“Are you going to make me dirty again?”
>>79374"That was the plan."
He smiles at her then bucks into her
>>79375She moans lightly
“Are you sure you can dirty the purity of a Nimbusuan Pegasus mare?”
>>79376"you'll be Filthy by the time im done."
If he can Dark Star will reach under her and play with her tits as hes thrusting into her
>>79378
That misspelling, though.
>>79380>autocorrectProbably. Autocorrect claims yet another victim.
>>79378
"Ha Ha Seems like im Doing a good job so far."
he Focuses on her nipples
>>79382She’ll never lactate until she is many months pregnant, but her teats are firm as water drips off them. “You like those don’t you?”
Her mouth gapes down in ecstatic pleasure, and her inside clamps down on Dark Star
>>79383"yea they really get me going."
Even though shes not lactating Dark Star Doubles Down on her nipples
>>79383>>79384You know, it wouldn't surprise me to learn that there's a lactation potion in a rulebook somewhere.
>>79385>lactation portion in a rulebook somewhereIt was posted already. You just didn't read.
>>79384They try to resist his hooves, tensing up even as the warm water losens them. “They were supposed to be for Pegasus foals”
>>79389>just pegasus foals.Such a winged supremacist, this girl.
>>79389"ill give you some foals."
Uh whats breeding like between the pony races?Dark Star relents on her nipples and moves to her clit
>>79391Show-wise, you have three options:
Earth Pony
Pegasus
Unicorn
You could increase the chance of being one of them if the ponies in question are of certain races, for example, it's more likely foals between Star and Skies are going to be Earth Ponies and/or Pegasi than unicorns, but there's still a chance to be unicorn still.
>>79392Reposting it for you. The "autocorrect" is in boldface:
>If he rests his chest on her while arching his back up, then yes, he can grab her tears while penetrating her. She backs her dump into him while grabbing down and letting off rythmically“Let’s see you try, Earth Pony.” She moans when he touches her
>>79395Yeah, that's what I meant for that little paragraph.
>inb4 GM can't continue the sex scene becuase he needs to research this pregnancy shit now.
>>79391I really hope is isn't a case where she's infertile, otherwise there will be a broken heart and/or feels.
>>79391She winks at him, including with her eyes. She definitely likes how he moves his hooves. Judging by how she moves her hindquarters back and forth she’s taken a definite liking to his penis. “I’d love to feel you try”
>>79393>implying ancestor screwed a UnicornThose are fighting words
>>79401"you'll be a great mother."
Dark Star Doubles down on his thrusts and his rubbing.
>>79401Oh, we're pre-unification or just post-unification of all three races? Are those fighting words world-wise? Eh, I don't know. I think I have it figured out. Well, I'll just leave for a bit nonetheless. I'll be back soon-ish.
>>79399I've got got an Open Game Licensed source that I'm flipping through atm. Will post finds.
>>79404>>79391If we use the same stats for centaurs, we've got a 60% chance of conception, if they're in heat.
>>79403Like Iron, she’s from a different culture with different values
>>79402She blushes, but is still as she looks forward
>>79403In Nibusia there is a section, or was in this case, of the population that held Pegasus supremacist views, pre-unification values if you will.
>>79405On that note, if we consider ponies to have about the same lifespan as humans, we could use human statistics.
In that case, it would be 20% all year round.
Now here's the real question: Do ponies go into heat, like horses? Or do they procreate like hoo-mans do?
>>79408Considering the norm for most quadrupedal mammals is estrus...
>>79406Dark Star Reaches down and kisses her
Should i make some rolls? >>79410Her muzzle has moved fare away, but when he moves her muzzle to hers, she is persuaded to come closer. She accepts the kiss, although she seems to have a tear in her eye.
She grabs him again, not wanting to let go
You can roll if you want to
>>79409Tbh, I like of like the estrus motif in clop pieces.
>>79410When you get the chance, ask her when her estrus period is, or roll appraise to sense via hormones or whatever.
>>79410Roll 1d20 for conception.
It'll be between 20 and 60% chance, depending on what GM rules for equine anatomy.
>>79412>Tbh, I like of like the estrus motif in clop pieces.I agree with this sentiment.
Also, potentially stupid question: if I throw a flask of oil as a splash weapon at an opponent, then ignite it, does it deal 1d3 damage for two rounds like if I were to ignite it from the ground, or does it deal 1d6 damage for two rounds like if I had used Alchemist's Fire?
>>79413Dark Star ejaculates, presumably inside of her,
“Oh! Oooh!”
She grabs him with all the strength of her muscles
>>79415Avoiding being lit on fire by a non-supernatural is a 15 DC reflex save; some creatures and spells have Abilities that raise the DC. You take 1d6 damage every turn you're on fire, and can attempt to extinguish the flames every round with another reflex save.
>OilJust buy alchemist fire.
https://dnd-wiki.org/wiki/SRD:Alchemist%27s_Fire>>79413If that was a conception roll, you wouldn't know the results of it anyway.
Rangers get Detect Pregnancy as a 1st level spell though.
>>79417Shoot, I worded that improperly..
So, apparently I can't say de-b-i-l-itations because e-b-i-l autocorrects as faggy on this site. Apparently I'm missing something, because I have no idea why it does that.
>>79425Yeah, I delet.
>>79426Old jokes we have on here, like European style football is changed. Let me try:
Gay marriage
ANYWAYS...
>>79417But what's cheaper? Because a flask of oil is pretty damn cheap.
TBH, me asking this is probably just a consequence of me having played way too much Dragon's Dogma. There's a lot of crazy things you can do with DE-B-I-LITATIONS in that game, especially revolving around Tarring and Dousing.>>79433Just for relentlessly trying to choke the thread with meta posting, all prices on whatever-oil are tippled and made equal to the highest cost
>>79434Yeah, sorry about that. Genuinely didn't mean to.
>>79433Well, you can do pretty much anything you can imagine. It's role-playing.
I think that throwing the oil and lighting it would probably be separate actions though, and the lighting part might incur AoO.
Considering that you'd need to throw a lot of oil to create the effect you desired (and be able to light it), alchemist fire might be better.
>not having a supernatural touch attackKirin masterrace.
>>79437We've got mordern weaponry too, so buy dynamite/grenades.
What just happened here? I missed some funny stuff?
Last meta post for a while, because I don't want to piss off the GM any more than I have done so already.>>79439At this rate, I'd almost say it would be worth it to have two separate threads: one for the game, one for meta discussion.I don't think Silver has the capability to buy explosives right now. I mean, I'm fairly certain something like that would be heavily restricted.
>>79440>tl;dr e-b-i-l without the dashes autocorrects as faggy, and it makes trying to type de-b-i-litations difficult >>79441You mean you couldn't write dfaggyitations on your device? Peculiar.
>>79442Oh, I see. Well, just let it there as a reminder not to use it later.
>>79441Well, if bullets are on sale, gunpowder must be available too.
*Sweeps the orphanage*
>>79444Iron keeps looking for the restaurant on his map. He should remember the address Cauldron gave him yesterday.
>>79423I take it Dark Star dirtied the pretty pure Pegasus pony?
>>79447She forces her mane against him, and pulls against him in an almost sucking fashion - expanding deep inside her while clamping down nearer his base, as her body tries to draw his seed closer to her womb
*Does laundry*
*Helps assemble breakfast*
*Prays for garden*
>>79450"Fucking indeed"
At the moment of ecstasy, her wings spread out to touch each side of the shower. She now folds them back in, as Dark Star either remains on her or dismounts
>>79452he dismounts after about a minute or so
>>79453She gives him her mischievous smile, and puts her tail down. Her mane is entirely wet
"I need to dry off now after getting so wet."
She opens the door of the shower to leave it
>>79451I'm considering this list for today:
Orisons:
Detect Magic
Create Water
Read Magic
Scarecrow
Mending
Animal Trick
1st level:
Lesser Vigor
Cloudburst
Enrage Animal
2nd level:
Heat Metal
Chill Metal
Luminous Armor
3rd:
Call Lighting
Downdraft
I'd modify it quite a bit if I anticipated the day to include undead-hunting, but technically Sister Ash would have no way to know of that...
>>79455Seems we'll be okay on any quest we may go, either the foals or the undead.
Of course, you didn't specialize on it, but it should be enough. >>79455Particularly, this list would be helpful if fending off ponies, not anything else.
Downdraft and Cloudburst won't help at all indoors or underground. I only prepared Cloudburst to buff Call Lightning.
>>79454What was the weather going to be today?
Luminous Armor is just funky Barkskin, but I wanted to try a Sanctified spell.
[1d20+12 = 24]>>79457Actually,I don't think I rolled Survival up until today.
Rolling to predict the weather for s number of days.
>>79454Dark Star proceeds to take the shower that he came in here to do
>>79454"you looked like you had a good time."
>>79459The complementary soap and coat wash have been opened before, but at least it's there. Dark Star can now smell like Lavender
>>79460"You've given a pleasant start to my morning"
As she wipes a towel over her
>>79461"im Glad to have Brought you some joy."
>>79456Well, as a class feature, I can burn any of those for a summoning spell. I kind of wanted to diversify things a bit though. Try some sanctified spells; develope her faith/practice a bit; experiment with different kinds of spells, etc.
Heat/Chill Metal won't be useful for anything but disabling weapons though: My AC is 10, so I'd rather avoid being shot at. Downdraft is to knock flying enemies down without outright killing them.
>>79463Oh, sounds like you have a plan for today. When the GM finishes his business and Iron can move again, he will go to a particular potion shop, heal these wounds up and come back to the abbey, so don't move a muscle from the abbey for now.
>>79462“Anytime you are feeling generous, you can come to me, or in me”
>>79466She gives him a wink through the glass panels, and leaves out the bathroom door
>>79467Dark Star steps out of the Shower and drys off
>>79464Sister Ash would wait a while to see if he comes back. She's content doing service at the orphanage, because that was the original reason she came to the city.
She helps the nuns wherever she can. She's particularly eager the make sure the foals she brought back are fine, so she checks on them.
Pic unrelated
>>79468He does indeed smell like Lavender, and feels surprisingly silky and smooth
>>79470He walks out of the bathroom
>>79471Alright, and what does he do next?
>>79472"im going down to the tavern to see if the rest of the Stallion Gang is there. want to Come with me?"
ALERT STALLION GANG, STAR IS GOING TO YOUR LOCATION. ONYX, SILVER, SPARK. WAKE UP.
>>79475Be ready for him. He will go to you shortly.
>>79473“Well... keeping tabs on them would be good. I guess I can go this morning”
Dark Star waits for Blue to get ready then they go to the east side tavern
>>79464Iron is able to go to the desired location
>>79469Much of the early activity is centered around trying to reintegrate the foals that had been lost. A certain unicorn colt wants hugs, a cream colored Pegasus is not allowed to leave her room until she has completed writing the same long prayer 500 times, after which she may leave her room for the exclusive purpose of going to the bathroom, and if she completes another 500 copies after that, she may have food brought to her. Some foals play with other foals, and they prepare for class. There is breakfast in the central hall, and s certain unicorn colt wants hugs
>>79480She organizes papers into briefcases, and moves around two jars that he recalls seeing his first night there, and then follows Dark Star our the door to the tavern
>>79481Well, here's the restaurant. Iron hopes Cauldron is in here. He tries to enter it, but not before seeing its name to jot it down for later.
>>79481Sister Ash gives hugs to whoever asks for it(or looks like they could use it), and helps the other Sisters set up breakfast.
She makes sure all the foals she brought back are adequately comfortable.
>>79481Along the way Dark Star glances at her stomach and smiles
>>79483Well, one of the foals is under house arrest...
The small colt likes hugs. Two of the older colts seem happy enough to be back, and even thank Ash, while two fillies seem to need the emotional support, and it kind of looks like a brown unicorn colt wants Ash to be his mother...
>>79484She still has a slender barrel, with an almost fluffy azure white coat
>>79488He still smiles knowing what could happen
>>79488Ash spends quite a bit of time tending to each foal individually. Giving them all the attention they deserve.
She passes by the pegasus cream-colored filly's (what's her name?) room momentarily, but allows her to finish her first stack before she can speak to her.
>>79490This is by and large successful, as the fillies seem reassured by her tender presence, although it does have the unexpected complication of a foal becoming stuck in her mane like a pine cone.
As she passes by the room, sister Rosemary has this to say: “I don’t think Abby Willows will be allowed to talk to anypony anytime soon”
>>79489She gives him a sort of strange smile back
>>79491Does Iron manage to get the name of the restaurant and enter it or does he have to wait because I'm desyncing with the others?
>>79491Would she be done with the first stack by the afternoon-ish, at the rate she's going?
Sister Ash requests that she have a word with Abby as soon as she can.
Sister Ash goes about her day, helping with chores and whatnot. She pays no mind to the foals nesting in her mane, so long as they do their share of the chores and prepare for their classes.
>>79491Are we at the tavern yet?
>>79494Sure
>>79492setting up that scene is a lot of mental energy>>79493>Abby“I guess even prisoners are allowed visitors...”
>nesting foals“The colt says he’s Bridged Clearly of Seaward Shoals. He’s only barely old enough to begin classes, and we don’t believe he can read or write. He hasn’t really been socialized well with the other foals or really any adults. You are the first one to pay him much attention.”
It's half past midnight for me, so I think I'm going to peace out.
Goodnight, Anons.
>>79496Goodnight.
>>79494I think the GM is waiting for Onyx, Spark, and I to all be on at the same time.
>>79496night fren
>>79495Dark Star walks over to Glimmering Glass
>>79500"Yea, can i get a water? has Spark and Oynx shown up?"
>>79501“That you may”
He pours a simple glass of water, and who knows with onyx and shimmer, although probably yes
>>79502"What About Silver is he around?"
Iron wonders how Cauldron's brother would look like. He expects him to be a little weaker than him due to his focus on potion making and not fighting ponies, so he believes he, at most, is average strength wise but is either intelligent or wise enough if he can make potions for a living.
If you need to sleep, you only need to state it, GM
>>79501>>79502>>79503I mean, we did let Glass know where we were going. Or at least, I thought.
Welp, I suspect that the GM has gone to bed so I am doing that too. Goodnight to you all.
I'm ready but will have to phonepost for the time being. Expect slow response time.
>>79505>Onyx, Silver and Spark have left the bar to go to some specified locationI was watching Ben-hur last night while feeling guilty about not doing job applications. I'll back-read some time
>>79510Sister Ash is helping out at the orphanage while she waits for Iron; doing chores and taking care of the foals. I should also note that she's been asking for descriptions of the foals who are still missing as well as their names, lest she see one of them in the city.
Caleb is training himself as an emotional support animal, patiently letting the foals pet him.
>>79513Unfortunately, the gang doesn't know that. All they know is that Ash is a nun, a kirin, she has a jungle native serving as her bodyguard, and she's looking for lost foals.
>>79514Hmmmm..
Why were they looking for her again?
>>79515They're wondering if she would join them when they head back to the crypts underneath Curwhinny farm, to help heal the party and provide some much-needed support and/or guidance.
>>79517What/who is Seaward Shoals?
>>79518It’s a city. Do you remember the episode “Pony Point of View”? The mane six go there to sail
>>79517Yeah, she would probably help them if they requested it; despite having her own priorities, reposing the undead is a cause she would be willing to offer up her service upon favorable request.
Also, I'm deciding my spell list for the day.
Thinking about it, it makes no sense for Sister Ash to prepare call Lightning 3 days in a row. She considers her spells to be a religious practice, not an asset in combat. I've diversified her spell list with the mentality that she would choose different spells each day, unless she had a particular plan for them (which she doesn't).

>Tfw creeping cold has a 25 gp material component, so can't use it. Don't know how much longer I'll be on. I need to leave for a trip at 3:15, and I don't know when exactly I'll be able to get back on, but it should be sometime before 6.>>79523And I imagine if she asked for the group's help in finding and saving the lost foals, they would gladly agree to do so.
Also, in the future, if an ally offered her the necessary material components for a spell when she required it, could Ash cast the spell without breaking her Vow of Poverty/Vow of Ascetism/whatever Vow it is?
>>79523Roger that. If you want I can buy the component for you for tomorrow if Iron pesters Ash enough.
>>79518>>79522>>79521Basically everything is wrong with these 3 posts.
>>79523>No sense to prepare Call lightning 3 days in a rowI think she's on notice that this place is kind of dangerous
>>79523>Can't use spell because of a componentWhat >>79526I still remember the plot of the episode somewhat.
>>79524Spoilered for non-core meta.Yes. That is permissible.It's kind of gay using the rest of the party's money though. The description also suggests the option of paying an amount of XP as a replacement for costly components.The limitation to spell costly components is supposed to part of the drawback, in exchange for what's basically a second set of class features.Not that I actually have it though. I'm just following the creed.>>79525Don't try to buy her things. She really would not like it the same way a normal woman would.
>>79526I've seen the episode. I just forgot the name because I was only paying half attention. It was a brainfart.
>this place is kind of dangerousShe didn't come to the city with intent to harm ponies. She still has offensive spells though.
>WhatI'm really trying to own this no-wealth-no-treasure gig. The material component for creeping cold is a piece of pottery worth 25 gp. I'm only preparing spells without costly components.
>>79529
Ash can't tell Iron what to do! He'll carry her on his back for miles if he feels like it!
It's going to be hard for him not to coddle Ash. I'll see what I can do
I need to step out for a bit. BBL.
>>79534Alright. The GM will take some time to get ready for GMing himself.
https://youtu.be/t9JQkxu_ofEHave a little song of needing water.
As it turns out, the trip did not take nearly as long as I anticipated.
>>79538Yeah, I'm ready whenever.
>>79539Coolio. GM may need a lot more time due to external life pressures, so be at the ready.
Well, I returned to my laptop just now, so that's good.
>>79541I can be available for the next couple hours.
>>79542It's very probable that the GM will be available at around 10-12 PM, aka at night, maybe even a bit of morning. Let's hope that it doesn't interfere with others' schedules. Now I have to leave the laptop again, maybe for about 30 minutes. Iron will be at the restaurant and see how Cauldron is faring as well as obtain some potions from his brother. He also wants to know the name of the restaurant for further visits. See you a little later.
>>79495"Every foal is unique. Some have d-different needs than others..." Sister Ash replies, her left eye twitching a bit as her mane is pulled the wrong way.
>>79545I have no clue. I think we're all waiting on the GM. And maybe also Spark, if he's here.
>>79547Dark Star Drinks his water
>>79548She looks at him with mild annoyance
"They aren't here"
>>79547At what point in the day could Sister Ash visit Abby?
>>79549"Yea, Do you want a drink?"
>>79550Is she going to wait until Abby is finished with her first set of prayers and ambush her on the way back to the bathroom, wait until dinner, try to talk the sisters into letting her in
now, make up some excuse for going in like wanting to search the dresser again, try to break into the second story dorm room from the window.... Really this question depends more on Ash
>>79552She'll wait until Abby's done with her first stack before she asks the Sisters if she can speak with her.
>>79553Well, if it takes one half minute to do one prayer, she'll be done in a little over 4 hours
>>79555That's around noon-ish, she'll see her then.
I'm here to stab things when required. Otherwise, what's going on?
>>79557"Mr.Glass,one cotton candy maretini."
>>79547I am back and ready. I will be cleaning up my room for a bit, so I'll be a little late on my responses.
>>79561Well then, as far as I remember, the gang was going to head up to the potions shop, followed by the Cathedral. Both of which are places only Silver knows where to head to, so...Silver looks out towards the exit to the tavern. "Come on, then. All of my stuff is gathered already. We should head to potions shop."
>>79563Spark follows right behind.
"Did you picture fighting monsters when you first arrived in this city?"
>>79560"We can... I... Don't think we have that"
Also I think Silver and Spark are leaving the tavern
>>79564>>79566Silver starts on his way out of the tavern, towards the potions shop from yesterday. "Hmm. I will admit, it is change from what I had fought over past few years. Not sure if it is good or bad change yet."
>>79565>>79566Wait so are they there or what?
>>79565"Get her a Strawberry one then."
[1d20+3 = 22]
Rolling to do dishes.
>>79570"Aha! I've finally got the hang of this."
Okay, let's figure this out immediately.
How are we going to assemble the party?
>>79580I'll join up with you in the abbey, that's for sure.
>>79580This really shouldn't take that long.
What are we going to do?
>>79584Perhaps thereaplace where they could meet Iron along the way?
>>79584No time to be mopey about bad party management, Silverboi. We want results, not self-deprication.
I think that's how it's spelled Fuck Me
>>79578We'll get em' next time
>>79572The location Cauldron gave was in the south eastern part of town, a little ways away. It's a one story brown-tiled building with a large roof on and an empty grass lot to its left. The name on it is simply "Ulonri." You get the impression that they just opened
>>79585It could be why the GM is setting up the scene so tightly. Maybe he's trying to join up with the others in that restaurant. Or maybe I'm going to be ambushed and berated by Cauldron and his goons, who knows?
>>79587Eh, I'm not that good at it.
>>79588u looking for a fight, horncolt? i can kick ur flank with one hoof tied behind mah back
>>79574Dark Star Hoofs it to Blue
>>79589Iron nods, then proceeds to enter said restaurant. Hope she knows where his brother is.
>>79590We would do more damage to ourselves most likely with these dice.
>>79594I continue to blame Atlas
>>79594Oh right, you missed the fight with the dog. It was close but I managed.
I didn't forget your kindness for that save, GM >>79591"I'm not supposed to be drinking before work"
She drinks the whole thing in basically one swallow
>>79593When he enters, he can smell roasted vegetables. He is immediately greeted by a Zebra with a blacker than normal coloration.
"Welcome to Ulonri. Would you like a table?"
>>79597Iron smiles. "I would like that, thank you."
>>79597"i wont tell if you dont."
"Well since the stallion gang isnt here, i was thinking of paying Father Maren another visit, maybe i can convince him to help with the zombies."
Because Spark hasn't replied yet...>>79564>>79566>>79567Silver continues to lead the group to the potions shop.
>>79598"then let me seat you." The interior is mostly normal for an Equestrian location, with a high ceiling. The walls, tables, and seats are largely of a darker wood, and are decorated with what have to be a number of Zebrican cultural items, like rugs and a few tapestries. One seems to present a battle of Zebra warriors defeating... Equestrian Infantry? Anyways, you have a menu before you. Breakfast items include spiced and boiled yams, fried plantains, stew, and so forth. The waiter who comes by is a relatively attractive blue-eyed zebra with a white dominated set of stripes. "What can I get for you?"
Assuming Iron is literate. Which I probably shouldn't assume. If that is not the case, the waiter explains this instead of Iron reading it>>79600And when he gets there, the pony asks "How may I help you?"
>>79599"You can do that"
>>79601Well, class wise, he is. Let's go that he can"I would like to order some fried plantains please and some water." Iron pauses. "Say, is Black Cauldron in here? I need to speak with her about some personal inquiries pertaining about his brother's business."
>>79602"Oh, so you know my sister. She'd probably stop by in the early morning. If she isn't here she should be within the next half hour. And we'll have your water right out"
Just an FYI for the GM if he doesn't know, Spark gave him 500 Bits at the tavern before they left. In case you were wondering.>>79601Silver speaks to his comrades, before heading up to the counter. "You two should browse, get good idea of what you need." When he turns to the shopkeeper, he starts listing off a few potions he needs: 2 potions of Cure Light Wounds, 2 potions of Magic Weapon, 2 potions of Shield of Faith (+2), and 2 potions of Hide From Undead.
>>79606"400 bits"
>>79604"What business would I have at a Celestial Church?"
>>79605The one at the door was intended to be male, and the waiter a female... I guess I didn't make that clear >>79607"thats fine,ill go there alone. ill miss you though."
>>79607He sets down four coin pouches, each with 100 Bits in them. "This will cover cost."
>>79607Fuck. Let me change what it was said.Iron nods. "I see. I can wait for her. I am Iron, pleased to meet you." Iron curtly bows. "Do you know if her brother is here too or is he absent as well?"
>>79608"I have business to attend to... Should we meet somewhere?"
>>79609"Indeed"
>>79611He waits for the potions, and for Spark and Onyx to make their own purchases.
Is Spark and Onyx still here, or did they leave? >>79612Onyx isn't making purchases
>>79612Sorry. I'm back.
"Is that everything we need?"
>>79611"how about we meet here, later?"
>>79610"Pleased to meet you as well. I am Blanche. Her brother is Obere, he was the one you met at the door"
>>79604Damn it, I should have had her say "You didn't want to come after we came back to the room last night"
>>79615"How much later?"
>>79616Iron smiles. "I see. I suppose Obere will be busy for the time being." He shrugs. "Well, I will wait for the food, then." A scratch on his chin. He sees how many people are currently eating at the other tables.
>>79617"Off to find a kirin and a jungle native then. If this was a small town, it wouldn't be a problem, but there is a lot of ground to cover here."
>>79618Some, though by no means at all crowded. Bare in mind that it is very early hours, and not lunch or dinner
>>79620Iron nods. "Maybe not so busy, then," he mumbles. He waits for either his food or Cauldron to show it or herself.
>>79619"Yes, but given circumstances, I would say we do not have many places to have to look. There are only so many places kirin nun would be." Silver grabs his new potions, offers his thanks to the shopkeeper, and motions for the gang to follow as he steps out of the shop. "Come. We go to Cathedral. Father Maren there might have guidance for dealing with undead. And who knows, perhaps they know of this kirin we seek."
>>79623Silver does so, looking for the Holy place he visited on the previous night.
>>79616"im not sure how long it will take to clear out the quarry but if im not out around 10. that would be cause for alarm."
>>79621The food comes first, fried plantains and simple water
>>79625"Oh, so it's a simple morning job is it? I guess it's no harder than my work"
>>79626"I thank you, Blanche." He grabs the one of the plantains and eats it, savouring this new, exotic food item.
>>79626"Its most likely going to take multiple days..."
>>79628"I see. Well, maybe I'll be able to help you at some point"
>>79627It seems like Iron has had relatively little experience with cooked and spiced foods. It has a sweet flavor and a soft texture
>>79629"I would enjoy that. i love watching you shoot things."
Dark Star Smiles at her
I need to step out. Will be back later
>>79624He is able to find the Cathedral of Saint Eligius on his map, and walk there
>>79629Iron chews it with gusto, feeling the sweetness of the food on his tongue. He gulps it in. "Wow, this food is really good." He then grabs the plantains by chunks, a little too eagerly, and munches them down rather quickly until all plantains are gone into his stomach. After this, he drinks all of the water in one gulp. "Ah~ That did the trick." Iron looks at Blanche. "That was great! Who made this food?"
>>79633Silver steps into the Cathedral once he arrives, intent on looking either for Father Maren, or somepony who can get him.
>>79635Spark follows.
"So, you said you know somepony here?"
>>79636"Yes, Father Maren. He is very knowledgeable when it comes to undead. He is one who cured Dark Star of his infliction."
>>79637"Ah. I owe him my thanks then."
>>79634Blanch comes up to him with another very familiar looking Zebra. Black Cauldron, by the looks of her smile, is both Awkward about about what happened yesterday, and somewhat pleased to see that he came now
"My talent for mixing things extends to spices, you know. But that would be Onyen"
>>79635There is no pony there immediately to great him
>>79631"Silly Dark Star. My deeds are not meant to be witnessed"
>>79639"Ha. i suppose not."
Dark Star gives her a hug
"i gotta get going,blue."
>>79640*hugged pegasus noises*
She very soft and fluffy. She smells like Lavender... or is that himself
"We'll meet again, soon enough. I have work to do"
>>79639He looks around the Cathedral, starting to get worried that nopony is there.
>>79639Iron waves "Hey Cauldron! Nice to see you again. Your tip really did the trick." Iron pulls out 100 bits and hands them over to Blanche. "Here, you and Onyen deserve it." He motions for Cauldron to sit down on his table. "I remember you made some potions as a side business and I want to buy some, if you can notice the bruises on me." Iron pulls up his chin, remember that sick uppercut Rover gave him.
>>79641"Be safe, i love you blue."
>>79642There's no pony there. It's an empty building. Wait.
A somewhat fat colt/stallion comes out wearing white clothes. His voice is kind of high, and he seems very happy to see Silver and his friends
"Hi! Do you need something? Sundew should be back any minute. Do you need a prayer? Incense?"
>>79643>>79645She bluches, and moves her head back, while her tail curls around her sitting in the seat
"D'aww, Dark Star. You're so sweet"
>>79643She takes a seat, and you can see on her face that she's a bit uncertain
"I make some, yes, and could even make more. What do you need?"
>>79646"ah i try. ill see you later."
Dark Star hugs her one last time and then heads for the door
>>79647She seems to make a squeaking noise when hugged
"I'll see you"
And Dark Star leaves
>>79646Silver lets out a sigh of relief. "We were looking for Father Maren. We are going to clear undead from Curwhinny farm, and we seek his knowledge on ways to most easily dispatch undead." He scratches the back of his neck as he thinks. "We are also looking for nun. She is kirin, sort of like dragon-pony hybrid, with bodyguard, who is Chincoteague stallion from jungles. I have heard she also has been asking around for information as to whereabouts of lost foals. I am not sure if you have heard of this nun."
>>79649Iron is presumably a different tribe that is much further south..."Undead. Kirin. Are you dehydrated? My name is Slow Burn, by the way, I am the Deacon here"
>>79646Iron smiles. "Good. But I am going to ask for many potions here, so I suspect it is going to get long if you need to make the potions now. Be sure to stop me if there is any issue with the potions asked." Iron inhales and lists off the equivalent of 4 potions of cure moderate wounds, 3 potions of barkskin +2, and 8 potions of cure light wounds.
>>79651"Actually, make it 6 potions for healing small wounds," Iron corrects
>>79651>>79653"That's quite a few potions... I guess I can see what I have in stock. Is that all you need?"
>>79652One arrives quickly enough
>>79650All he knows about Iron is that he's from the jungles, so he's just assuming he is from that tribe."No, I can assure you I have had plenty of fluids today already. I am pleased to meet you, Deacon Slow Burn." Silver look from one side of the Cathedral to the other before continuing. "I assume, then, that Father Maren is not present. And that you have not heard of this kirin pony."
>>79654He Gets in and says "Can i get a ride to the parish church?"
>>79655"I... Don't know what a Kirin is. Who are you looking for? Father Maren should be here. He always stays in the back"
reee the Chincoteague are from the Hayseed forests.... eh, it really doesn't matter that much. It's like the difference between Aztecs and Cherokee. The only people who would give a shit about the distinction are people who aren't white, and people who care about history. To all other white people, they are just small-pox fodder>>79656"Do you mean the mother church, Saint Eligius?"
>>79657"Alright... I'll go check my stock. You could also order more food"
>>79658Iron chuckles. "Maybe I can buy for you too if you want."
>>79658He nods. "Can you point me in direction of Father Maren, then?"
Blame it on Silver, then. >>79659She looks at him with uncertainty, but then lays back
"I'll take you up on that offer, then. What is it you are needing potions for anyways"
>>79660"Oh! Yes."
He goes towards the back, or rather, runs towards it
>>79661Silver is a bit confused as to why he seems so...excitable, but he follows as best as he can.
>>79658is that the one?"I think so. its the one close to the old Farm houses."
>>79661Iron smiles. "Well, I need to heal up fast for today. I need to protect the client I told you about. Fighting a diamond dog in a boxing match does that to you. As for other potions, I may need it for later for the job." Iron ponders. "What do you usually order? I have no clue how any of the food taste like."
>>79662Spark follows a bit more calmly, glass still by his side. He wonders if this place would forbid such a thing. He quickly moves it between himself and the deacon.
>>79665I wrote that wrong, but you know what I mean, away from between himself and deacon
>>79663"I'll take that as a 'yes'." He drives him to the Cathedral quickly enough
>>79662"Hey Father Maren! Father Maren! There is a pony here who said something about Kirin and undead and some other things. I didn't really follow but he wants to see you"
He is well ahead of Silver
>>79664"I see. You should probably change that. I like the Abacha, or Okra soup"
>>79667Iron nods. "I shall order two of Okra soup and water for both of us, then. I suppose the 100 bits should cover both the plantains and these next two dishes, right?"
>>79667Silver starts to be somewhat amused by this Deacon's energy. He calls out to him. "If you would just wait for us for one minute, it would be much simpler ordeal, you know?"
>>79668Blanche takes the order down, as well as some instructions from Cauldron that seem to pertain to preparing.... something
"Sure. So protecting this client of yours has you boxing Diamond Dogs? Interesting"
>>79669"What did you say? Ooh! I found him! He was sleeping apparently"
>>79671Annnnnnnd Silver is no longer so amused. "...Just...be quiet, we will be there shortly." He continues making his way towards the source of the voice, wondering how the Deacon made it so far ahead.
>>79671Iron shakes his head. "I actually was getting very bored with the job I picked up, so I decided to brush up on my right hoof and have a little brawl. You could say I did it for fun." Iron smiles. "Like you may go for a drink with friends or something." Iron lays back on his chair. "That dog Rover sure has some technique, it was a pretty close fight, but I barely won."
>>79672I think all natives of the Equestrian Southwest are Earth ponies, or something like that
>>79674"Well that sounds like you alright. Getting bored not fighting. Wait. Which Rover?"
>>79673'Hey Father! It's after 8, and time to get up. These two need you for something involving.... Queering? Wait, that's not right. Kirin! That's what he called them. He needs you to help with Kirin"
>>79675What separates "Natives" from other ponies, if all ponies are from the Equestrian continent?
>>79675Silver groans. How far ahead did this pony manage to get?
>>79675"Rover de Marquise, or something like that. Do you know him?" Iron cocks one eyebrow.
>>79676They should be stronger and bigger on average than normal ponies, meaning they should have exceptional strength and constitution stats as by race.
>>79678"De Marquis! I thought that may have been him. Yes, he does fights fairly regularly"
>>79676They are settlers that proceeded the migration of the tribes in the Windigo crisis. Go study history in character to learn more
>>79679Except that they are still Earth Ponies, not something else entirely
>>79680No call to action. All Ash would be concerned about would be that they're ponies.
>>79680What the GM said.Iron is surpised. "Huh. How do you know him? Do you watch fights at the bar?"
>>79680After some more walking, Silver finally comes across the Deacon and Father Maren.
>>79681Then don't ask questions about it
>>79685I'm guessing he asks the Taxi driver
"What?"
Also he would arrive more quickly than basically any other character
>>79683Father Maren walks in, rubbing his eyes and putting on his glasses, while Slow burn is bouncing in place. "What is it you need" he asks kind of groggily.
>>79684Definitely after 7 AM, as that is the time the mass would end
>>79686Okay then.
Sister Ash would be doing chores and whatnot until Iron got back, possibly visiting Abby Willows at noon-ish.
>onyx continues to follow everyone around
>>79686"That is one weird pony..." With that thought passing through his mind, Silver clears his throat. "Hello, Father Maren. I am sorry for having awakened you. My compatriots and I, we are going back to Curwhinny farm, to finish job, and dispatch undead from area. We are hoping that you might be able to provide guidance as to best way to do this, or perhaps let us know of weakness we may exploit."
"In addition, we are looking for somepony. She is kirin nun, with native bodyguard. I have heard she was asking around about lost foals. I hope you have heard something about where we might find her."
>>79688"I... Yes, I know songs"
>>79690"You didn't think one scare of becoming a Ghast was enough? You want more now? Very well... And I don't know any queereens"
>>79682"I have watched and guarded many fights, yes. He is a popular contender in the city"
>>79693"So I heard. He is pretty good." Iron ponders and leans in closer to Cauldron, almost whispering. "How was your day with the gang? Any gossip going around it? Apart from the whole 'ship stealing' business."
>>79691"So that is what they are called...no matter. We are in need of Bits, and it is not good idea to allow undead to continue their existence. I do not relish thought of them escaping into city..."
>>79691"Would you Sing one on the way?"
>>79694"Yes, very serious gossip, and it
does relate to the ship stealing business. There is a general belief that Pransisco organized the heist. At the very least they thing some of his men did. There is also some claim of a 'slaughter king' which is generally dismissed as nonsense or a false report, but some think that this may be the alias of some unknown figure looking to make a name for himself"
>>79696He turns on the automobile Radio. "There is no such thing" by Frank Sintrotta plays
>>79695"I see. Leave evil long sealed away where it lies. But if you must disturb it, bring somepony with the powers of harmony to dispense with it"
>>79684Ash feels a tap from behind. It's the colt, who has been on her back basically for the last 30 minutes, and he wants to be held. Ash likewise remembers her dream, how Abby was replaced with a hideous monster
>>79697Iron nods. "That is a pretty dumb name if he wants to be an actual name, but I digress." Iron leans back. "So, how is your day going?" Iron smiles some more.
>>79697"ah i love this one. its great."
