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

>>80179Iron rolls his eyes. "Fine. Skies will get mad at you for telling the mean stallion about your bedtime stories anyway." Iron chuckles. "I bet you both had sex the night after your valiant kiss."
>>80181>>80180>>80179>>80178And she is now
finally firmly out of hearing range
The sorcerer just stares at everypony.
>>80182"...Should we be worried about what we have unleased upon this world?"
>>80180"That mare sure has an ego. Good thing you can manage it, Star." He tells him.
>>80183"Oh hey Spark. Good thing you are not part of the background anymore." Iron grins. "There is a drinkoff between the uppity mare, Star and Silver if you want to prove your worth."
>>80184"It's just a mare. The worst she can do is maybe fire at me with her gun or throw up on anyone."
>>80185"Ah, cheeky." Iron lightly jabs Star's front foreleg's shoulder in his prone position. "Good on you."
>>80185"Well, just remember, she requests you stay conscious after contest tonight."
>>80183Silver remembers something he was going to ask Spark about. "Spark, that spell you have, one used to detect magic, can you use it to detect magic in specific items?"
>>80186"Her throwing up on nun or orphan is what I am afraid of."
>>80183"you've been quiet."
>>80186"thanks."
>>80188"i can handle my alcohol."
>>80188"I think so? What do you need to be detected?"
>>80187Iron nods. "It is fine. I do not intend to participate either."
>>80188Iron laughs hard. "Oh you are a funny one."
>>80189"That is good. I would not want to feel cheated with easy victory."
>>80190Silver levitates a necklace out of his bags. "It was worn by native skeleton that attacked us yesterday in crypts. It caught my eye, and I wonder if it has any magic qualities about it."
>>80191"...I will...take that as compliment."
>>80189"I don't really have much to add to the conversation."
>>80192"Interesting."
Spark casts detect magic.
>>80193Signatures further away, but nothing on the necklace
>>80192Iron smirks. "Of course it is a compliment."
>>80193"Maybe tell about your magic skills? We are going into a presumably dangerous place, you know."
>>80192>>80194"Nope. It seems devoid of magic. I do sense some magic else where though. Too far away to tell."
>>80195"Not a whole lot to say. A little bit of fire, and a whole lot of little tricks that haven't come in handy when facing monsters so far."
>>80196Iron shrugs. "Eh, some magic is better than no magic. I guess." Iron continues his stroking. "Well? What is the plan for this mission? I hate being in the dark."
>>80195>>80193>>80192"Ive Decided against getting the kerosene, are you colts ready to go to the farm?"
>>80196"Well, it is still nice looking necklace. Perhaps there is collector who would take it still."
>>80195"I would not know. I have not been called funny very often."
>>80198"Of course. Lead way, my friend."
>>80198Iron stand up, being sure that Ash is on his back. "Well, I am. Do tell me the details of this mission at the campsite. Wait, should we wait for your marefriend? I thought she was coming with us."
>>80197"Well, I can make an item glow to light up the place."
>>80198"I'm ready."
The ignoble mare returns in an equally undignified canter, head hanging low
>>80201Iron deadpans at Spark.
>>80202Iron feels like she is planning something but failed horribly here.
>>80204Iron leans on Spark. "I think Silver's predictions came true," he whispers to him.
>>80202Silver similarly looks at Blue with some concern.
>>80199>>80204>>80206Iron prods Silver. "It is your turn to say what is wrong."
>>80204>>80206"Nothing, I just can't be drinking in midday. Truly a poison"
>>80209Iron smirks. "Well, can you walk?"
>>80208"Well, it has been said twice already..."
>>80209"Ah. Well, we are to head to location, if you want to come along. Maybe walk drink off."
>>80210She spreads her wings from their folded position. Her two wings are very wide, and hold full set of azure white feathers
"Can you fly?"
>>80214"Are you sure you are strong enough? Maybe Silver..."
>>80212"I may as well
see what this thing is, even if I have to leave early"
>>80213"You have nice feathers. If it is supposed to be the same answer for both my question and yours, then you cannot walk." Iron shrugs. "Not that you could fly drunk anyway."
>>80215Silver seems unsure about carrying Star's drunk marefriend, at least without his approval first. "Very well."
>>80215"Not a chance am i gonna let some other stallion carry you."
>>80218>>80217>>80216She looks back at the bunch
"I can fly"
>>80219"Sure. You can fly straight into a tree, or maybe to a zombie." Iron laughs. "Come on, let yourself be treated by your coltfriend already."
>>80220"I bet you wish you could fly into those coconut trees plantation colt..."
>>80221"Why won't you let him carry me? You are no stronger than me"
>>80222"Because im your coltfriend."
>>80222Iron chuckles. "I need only to climb the tree to get the coconut. I do not know about you."
>>80224"I just wait for the earth pony to hand it to me"
>>80223"Then I'll walk"
>>80225"Thats fine. Are you ready to go?"
>>80225Iron smiles. "Ah, you are lazy as well. If you keep that up, you will not lift yourself off the ground."
>>80226"I am ready." Iron is fully armored except his good hoof for punching, shield on the other and carrying a fainted Ash on his back. "I shall follow your lead."
>>80226"I am ready, yes. Lead on."
>>80226>>80226"Yeah"
>>80227"But I
can lift myself off the ground, can't I, terrestrial one? I am no idle unicorn. I fight danger"
>>80227>>80228>>80229Dark Star heads for the door
>>80229"At the cost of your frail body." Iron snickers. "Pretty sure that is why you have wings, because you naturally adapted to run away from danger. We learn to endure and beat them with our natural strength."
