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.

"City Councilpony, very well involved in the political elite of the city with connections elsewhere in East Equestria, fairly involved in the Industrial elite as well. He lives in the gated community of Pleasant Gardens. There are many openings to go in, as he welcomes guests, has food catered, has gardeners, and has various other ponies coming in and out. He stays there most of the time, but if you want to investigate his house when he isn't there, there should be a meeting he should attend at something like 7 PM"

"I see." Iron nods. "It seems Ash is waiting for a 'cold', ''cald' of sorts" Iron is a bit tongue tied by the new word. "Any idea what it is about?"

"A 'caul', 'card', you understand, right?" Iron does not know how to communicate what a call is.

Iron nods. "I hope he does not take too long. We do not want to keep Silver and the others waiting at the tavern, now do we?"

I thought they were going to meet the next day. I guess they should wrap up the funeral stuff then.

No small amount of time passes before Father Maren returns to the room. When he does, he says the following:
"I called the Bishop in Canterlot, who directed me to directed me to an expert in Equestrian necromancers. He didn't know what I meant, nor did anyone in the department, so they searched through the archives. They found it. In 820, a farmer in Albion ran into his local church, saying that he had witnessed local fisherman doing... strange things in his barn involving blue jars. He said he seen spirits conjured and talked to. That was ignored for the fancifulness of the encounter, until a police search for a missing pony revealed what the farmer had said to be the truth a month later. They found a number of jars, with salts just like the ones you described, and eventually turned them over to the church. They were baffled just the same as we, until after a year they discovered that a particular prayer, combined with some iodine and industrial alcohol could break both the spiritual and physical bonds of the salts. And we may do the same here. Of course certain very powerful magic can do all the same, but that would take far too long, and require help from as far away as Fillidephia"

Didn't you have a meeting with a sister? Anyway it is only a recon mission, which Star, even with his current low health, can do as well as Spark and Skies, if she wants to, and I'm sure she wants to.
>>82739
Iron is surprised at the complexity of the soul-releasing process. "So are you going to keep the jars until you can free the souls, then?"

Idk, I thought the rest of the party was going to rest overnight to recover hp and spells, and maybe gather some info.
I guess we should have planned s bit better..

Father Maren Drops iodine and alcohol carefully into each jar in measured proportions, and hands over a sheet of prayers to Ash

juding from cognates, repeating words, and the context, the prayer seems to be an urge to release spirits from "bondage." Something about a mimicry of corporeal bondage taking place"
He starts as the salts in the jars start to boil, and separate into white and blue liquid layers

No one can't overlook every possibility.
Also, it's funny to think a knocked out bartender because he gave client a little too much to drink and her marefriend was pissed about it. It's like a comedy .

Ash Iron moves closer, he'd notice that Sister Ash has been reading it aloud under her breath, as she tries to find the proper tone.

Iron now hears how focused she is. He returns to looking for signs of trouble around the reposition process.

As the chanting begins, a more noticeable magic process takes place. White vapor comes up from the jars, then starts heading out in circular pattern as if directed by some unfelt and unnoticed airflow. A separate blue light emanates from the salts as well

Very interesting.
Sister Ash is particularly intrigued by this convienient form of magick.
Rolling spellcraft (free action) to try to identify the emulated spell.

Iron is mesmerized by the magic flowing around, like he has never seen this kind of process before. Somehow, it reassures him that the souls will be put to rest.
