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 this latest episode, the crew has united once again, and returned in full to the catacombs under the Curwhinny farm. What old secrets they will unearth, whether they will survive without being turned into undead monsters... whether Silver will ever get paid... will be determined in this thread.

Sister Ash crosses her arms in discontent.
"We weren't going anywhere together so long as the old stallion over there was done catching his breath. They were not having a bout with any intent to do permanent damage to one another. I didn't encourage them; I only helped set the terms for a decision they'd already made themselves." She says, as Iron slowly wakes up

Eh, sparring is not really hurting anyone in the long run tbh, specially with hooves. That is only true in games though.
Iron looks at Skies calmly while he stands up. "Do you have anything on Comte, Skies? A routine, some vices to exploit. Any information counts."

She didn't promote it, she just suggested the loser should do community service. If you didn't catch my drift, the 48 hours community service thing was actually supposed to discourage Dark Star (because that's a full week's worth of unpaid labor); because she thought the match was dumb, but still respected their descision.

Dueling =/= sparring

Dueling is a vengeful act, that ends in actors killing or seriously wounding one another: It's a lethal match.
Sparring is two combatants exchanging blows in a show of skill, without intent to kill: it's a nonlethal match.

If they had suggested shooting eachother or swordfighting or otherwise fighting to the death, Sister Ash surely would have stopped them. And she only melted Blue's gun because she insisted on shooting or being shot.

And I'd say that in-character, but Sister Ash doesn't believe Blue would understand even if she did.

She's an ex-monk. She watched spars every day back at her temple, even if she didn't participate. Monks would beat each other up in practice, and then they'd shake hooves and drink tea together.

And to set the record straight, Sister Ash is really only a pacifist until she isn't: it's supposed to be an ironic twist that she's just slightly bipolar when it comes to that, which leaves room for her turning into an enraged arsonist every now and then. She isn't lawful, she's neutral. I wasn't bteying to play a perfect character without flaws, just one with good intentions.

Sister Ash gives another bow.
"Age is nothing to be ashamed of. It's natural. Getting older only means a pony has more wisdom to share." She says

"Anyway, so long as you're recovering, it shouldn't matter if those two tassle with one another. It would be better off if we avoided hustle or direct confrontation for today, and devoted the rest of the day to gathering our resources and information. I would like to have a word with the church about what I've heard today, and I would love to meet you tomorrow morning or this evening with a plan for what our next step is."
She bows so hard her nose touches the grass

Alright, the difference to me here here is, Iron and Dark Star weren't trying to kill eachother in this case. That, and Silver had already been reduced to zero hp, so it wasn't any further inconvenience for the party if they (willingly) took nonlethal damage, from my perspective.

Both in and out of character, I think there's a big difference if one of the PCs' life is on the line. I guess it isn't my decision to make, concerning what is the most indisputably righteous thing to do, though. I just acted in the way that I thought my character would.

If I caused a serious problem, I'm sorry. I can't justify everything I've done here.

I can see now that I've fucked up. I thought it would just be a bit of fun, but now I see that things have gone beyond the pale. Idk what else I can say about this matter, but I'm sorry.

And please, know that I have a certain degree of detachment from my character. What she believes do not necessarily refect my own beliefs. What she thinks is good doesn't necessarily match my own moral compass, but a persona I created for her. And most importantly, her attitudes and interactions with player characters do not reflect my own attitudes towards their players: please don't take things personally if something she does or says feels offensive, because it's never, ever my intention to jab at player.

At a church, temple, or other holy place.
She's already done the eulogies, she's just looking for someone who can show her to an appropriate place to scatter the ashes.

It depends on your priorities like finishing this whole jar business now or tomorrow in the afternoon. Don't push yourself or you'll act dumb.

He looks at Dark Star
“Well, you do kind of look like it. A double whiskey coming right up”
