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.

>>81158"ASH! WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING!"
Blue Skies grabs a few items and rushes out
The books are very close together
>>81157Silver's dynamite had adequate fuse for detonation >>81160I'm not a dynamite expert, so I don't know if that means Silver has to light it manually or if he can detonate it remotely with a plunger.>>81159"Alternatively, I could just stick it on wall, light it with lighter, and run like there is no tomorrow."
>>81158>Ghostly BlueActually, not really. For while the contents of the books may concvern themselves with arcane magics and cults long forgotten by history, they are still composed of Carbon and hydrogen, and as such burn like normal. The firs glows red and very quickly becomes smokey, then smokier as oxygen runs out, spreading soot
>>81164>>81160Iron, hearing the commotion, decides to go where the shout came from.
>>81160"Just disposing of some
trash.." Sister Ash replies, her hooves scorching the floor and setting the rug alight as she torches more ill-gotten gains
[1d20+7 = 15]>>81163"either way is fine with me lets see if we can find any wire before we do that though."
Spot Check to look for any wwire
>>81164B-but.. much special kirin-fire..
>wanted it to be blueSister Ash leaves the room as soon as everything is satisfyingly on-fire, and proceeds to the next room.
>>81165>>81166The books glow bright red, orange, and with black smoke, as flames spread further. Ash spreads more flames
>>81172Sister Ash pays the fire no regard as she proceeds on to the next room.
>>81172>>81169Iron is shocked at how the fire has spread so much in the room. When he sees Ash go to the next room, he follows her. "Are you sure this is wise, Ash? There must be a better way to dispose of these books." He is worried.
[1d20+3 = 17]>>81170Ash ends up being the reason we all die.Just like the old gypsy woman said.>>81167Spot: Silver aids Dark Star in his search.
>>81175What gypsy?
>>81174Sister Ash turns her head.
"There is nothing in this vile dungeon worth saving." She says flatly
>>81169It isn't Ash that is burning, it's the books, Ms. 451
>>81165>>81169Blue Skies grabs some items, as the books burn with thick smoke, almost more like a charring than a direct burn
>>81175>>81167There is no wire in the hallway at all. In the wide hall with the arched-rooms, on the other hoof, they may have seen some wire
>>81167>>81163Wait. You guys were setting dynamite?!
Fuck. Now I regret starting this fire...
>>81177>>81167Silver grabs the dynamite out of his bags. "If you would, look for wire in other hallway. I will get to work on setting dynamite up."
>>81176Iron is not amused. "What about us, for example? Your stunt will leave us without air to breathe. I am not saying not to destroy all the books. I do not care. I care about living here." Iron states as he follows her.
>>81177He is worried even further by how the books burn.
>>81178Ash always ends up exploding the room. This is just hilarious.
>>81177Is the smoke flooding the hall or anything?
>>81179"i doubt there will be any. go ahead and set it."
[1d20+5 = 13]>>81180She looks down the hallway.
"The exit is right other there. The smoke shouldn't cause too much trouble."
>>81183Fuck, fuck, fuck. I'm sorry...I thought the dynamite plan was cancelled.>>81184Fuck..
>>81185"Fine, then. Go ahead and meet back up with others. No need for two ponies to be down here when I set it off." Silver heads back into the other room, heading down the hole in the wall to prepare the dynamite.
>>81187F for Silver >>81182It may be wise to vacate that area
Blue skies bolts out with a number of parchments, coughing, and almost dropping a book in her mouth
>>81186He feels a little lightheaded, but okay
>>81179Six sticks, with fuses
>>81187Ash feels
really faint
>>81189Sister Ash feels an instinctive urge take over, and she bolts for the exit.
>>81189Can I detect what is going on, or do I need a roll?
>>81192Eh, it's okay. It's in character. No one should die in this situation.
>>81189Silver tries to set it up in a place he thinks will have the most effect in blocking off the exit.
>>81193How could he possibly miss it? There is a large, smoking fire in a pair of rooms right next to him
>>81195I take it he wants to set it up in the store room with the hole?
>>81190As she runs, she feels her legs fail her, and she trips, falling down to the ground, slowly losing consciousness
>>81196Ummm.. can Caleb drag her?
>>81198He drags her outside at half his full speed.
>>81200>DownstairsHe should have been murdered by all of the undead then if he went down along with the two who took the "hide from undead" potions
>>81196>>81201Iron notices Ash falling in front of him, but sees the dog carrying her. He decides to help Caleb with his dragging.
>>81202Then why didn't you say I was attacked? I just waited at the bottom of the stairs and you didn't mention anything about it.
>>81199>>81185Dark Star and Silver feel a kind of wind, drawn past them from the quarry to upstairs by an evident negative pressure
>>81205Silver stops in the middle of setting up the dynamite to look around. "Did you feel that Star, just now?"
>>81188Dark Star goes to the stairs but waits until silver lights it to go back up
>>81205>>81207"yea...that was strange."
