Occupied Equestria: Day 4 Afternoon

83002 83004
Set six years after season 6, Occupied Equestria presents an alternative history where Chrysalis chose a different approach to her second attack on Equestria. The Changelings have conquered half of Equestria, while a former Equestrian 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.

You know what? Fuck it. Silver gets a quickrundown of "Three theories of sexuality." The first section concerns sexual abberations: Where the sexual object deviates from the sexual aim. In the discussion of the sexual object, it concerns itself with sexual perversions. This is of course only a small portion of the book. Essentially, this is a psychology/philosophy book he is looking at

The Psychology of Sexuality, in a quick glance, claims among other things that it is false to believe that foals have no sexual desire to them. Rather, sexuality is expressed even from the earliest ages. It also talks about auto-eroticism in both foals and yearlings. Another section concerns same-sex appeal. Another Philosophy/psychology book, basically

Highlighted are some sections in "Harmony and Its Discontents" about repression having sever psychological effects on the repressed

There seems to be an actual physical place that this occurs, or at least, is a center of outreach. It's a location in the Eastside called "New Horizons." The document mostly centers on donations to it, as well as a few arrivals. It appears there are ponish teachers and a few beds for the homeless, as well as headhunters for those seeking jobs. At least, that is what the document alleges

Wow, holy shit.

He can see the frame of a painting. The painting inside has been cut out. Inside of a dresser there is jewelry, mare's socks and panties. Deeper in the dressers are more clothes, for male and female. On the top of the dresser is a framed picture of a husband and a wife in an exotic seaside location somewhere north, and a candle that smells of cream. On the nightstand is a copy of "Ponies and Prejudice" opened midway upside down, a pair of reading glasses, a lamp, and a framed picture of a father and a pinkish colt. There is a check inside of a drawer on a nightstand

>20 pounds of gold
So about $320,000, going by 2019 rates of $1000 per ounce. Real estate is expensive! This also means that a single gold bit is worth $320, implying high inflation. Even a blue-collar worker earns triple-figure salaries.

A level 1 NPC owns $288,000 and a level 2 owns $640,000 in assets. Seems to me our characters could open a portal to an earth-like setting and they'd be filthy rich.

I guess so? For Silver, something like this is fairly normal for him, even if what you've seen so far says otherwise.

It's only just recently I've found a way to articulate the reason why Silver's marked as being True Neutral even though the actions he's taken in the game thus far are much closer to Lawful Good: The Lawful Good Silver? The pony who donates to charity, gives romance advice to friends, who sticks to his principles and fights for those he cares for, was a loving husband and father for 18 years? That's the pony Silver wants to be, and wishes he could be. The True Neutral Silver? The pony who robs a mare of her jewelry without nary a thought, who has no remorse over brutally slaughtering those who killed his wife or just normally killing in general, who stays loyal to the contract and to Bits, who fights for little more than personal gain? That's the pony Silver is, and has been for a very long time. Try as he may to be good, until something significant happens to make him seriously reconsider his life choices, or until somepony manages to convince him to try to change his ways, he'll always revert back to that baser instinct, to the True Neutral Silver: the pony who knows how to fight, and choses to fight for himself.

Or I just suck at this. Who knows?

Silver's fairly basic: silver-grey coat, medium grey mane, blue eyes. He's also got a dark grey dorsal stripe running along his back from his mane to his dock. Have you ever seen a picture of a mustang horse? It's a bit like that. If you need it, his cutie mark should be a sword swinging in a downwards arc.

Storm's pretty stereotypical for a pegasus: dark grey coat, black mane, yellow eyes. She's got a wide yellow lightning stripe in her mane. Cutie mark is a forked lightning bolt.

It's either Pransesco or Prancesco. For the sake of not breaking the GM, let's say either works.

For a GM, that's true. If every PC is a jerk, then the GM will find it harder and harder to entice the PCs into questing without sacrificing the story. The players are a bit different, since they want to do some stupid shit sometimes, or else they will eventually lose interest in the game by acting like serious goody-two shoes all the time.
This may just be me projecting my ideas and pretending all of the party agrees with them
I think my changeling character 'could' make the party more likable as a whole, but she's not really a good-aligned character. Also some questionable stuff like how worker changelings work without a queen to serve and the like

>>84989
>>84990

Silver trots forlornly back down the stairs, the weight of his guilt weighing him down considerably more than he expected. Every step he takes with the stolen possessions, every moment that passes, he feels it becomes more difficult to breathe.

As he steps in front of the dresser in the master bedroom once again, he pulls out the necklace and the brooch. He stares at them, a mental battle being waged in his mind. One second, he'll make a motion like he's going to return the jewelry. The next, he'll move to put them back in his bags. And for a third second, they'll return to a neutral state.

Memories, meanwhile, come to mind and pass like the wind. Memories of him doing bad things, terrible things, in his past. Memories of him in which he tried to do something better, to be better. Memories of her. Of Storm. And them together.

After a few seconds of this, he sighs, and tosses them back into the dresser. "This is not right...I...she...she would want me to be better than...this. Whatever 'this' is." The weight feels lifted off his chest. He feels like he can breathe once more. He turns for the stairs back to the attic once more, only offering one lass look back at the dresser before making his way back to Dark Star.

"It is not worth it, to lose what little I have left."

Maybe if she was a bandit for a year as a thrill seek like a rich kid wants some excitement in his life. Not when she basically grew up to be a bandit. I suppose the one reason to leave the bandit life and settle as a normal mare is when she has children who can be used as targets for others to exploit, forcing her to act as non-intrusive and cocky as possible, so no stealing.

"Ah, let us start with that, then. Preening is way pegasi take care of their wings. It usually serves three purposes: remove loose or damaged feathers from wings, clean healthy feathers of dirt and sweat that accumulates over time, and cover them with natural oils to protect them from elements. Adult pegasi can do this on their own, but those in intimate relationships are known to preen each other, and it is usually seen as very intimate act. I have had some experience in this, as I was married to Storm for 18 years, so if you want, I could try to teach you how to preen Blue."

Silver laughs a bit more. He feels almost younger, teaching Dark Star like this. Makes him feel like he's teaching his own sons, again.

Silver starts to teach Star how to preen, or at least as well as he can as a unicorn can teach an earth pony without any visual aid. He describes how to root around in a pegasus's wing to locate loose feathers and very gently pull them out with his teeth, how to use both his snout and his tongue to clean the dirt and grime off of healthy feathers, and how to spread the natural oils secreted in the wings and wingpits throughout the feathers to add a nice, protective layer. He also goes into surprising detail about how the oils secreted by a pegasus's wingpits are absolutely loaded with pheromones, and just how effective it is in "exciting" the male member, and getting a pony "in the mood to reproduce".

Silver nods. "Indeed. It is supposed to prepare couple for intercourse, get both members in mood. There were many times when I would preen Storm and take large whiff from her wingpits, and it would be like punch to face, that scent of her pheromones. It becomes especially potent during estrus." He blushes a little in embarrassment as he continues. "Normally, I would have to wait until near end of preening to do so. It would not take long for my mind to go to mush thinking about nothing but rutting her, and for feeling of my, eh...'Splitting Sword'...popping out of its sheath and slapping against her back to make us both go crazy with lust."

I wanted to base her color patterns off of Mother Teresa's trademark White and Blue habit, which is the symbol of the Missionaries Of Charity. I thought some kind of blue trim could look good on her mane, but otherwise I'd make it a blue-green Jade color.
Her scales are yellow/gold, maybe rosegold, and her hooves were supposed to be gray/silver. The golden color of her scales makes it look like she's wearing armor.
Her coat is supposed to be pearly whites, or perhaps a very light gray. I wanted to keep it pale, to contrast the clothes she normally wears, or her black coat when she's angry.

Idk, the solid blue color doesn't really fit her. I thought her mane would be mostly white/silver, like mist, with a bit of blue on it. The blue doesn't really need to be very apparent so long as it's there. As for the shape, I thought it'd be similar to Autumn Blaze's, with the swirls/stripes and all, only it'd be looser and silkier; less dense, but still long.
Also, while we're posting other ponies vectors. Here's one that made me think of similarities.

I had planned to shoop a vector myself once I finally got a new laptop.

And yeah, that one looks pretty male.
If there were any distinguishing physical feature about Sister Ash, it would be that she's relativey small and frail.
