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 Princess Twilight's notion of harmony with all creatures thank to their dealing with griffins - Invaded and took the other half. In Baltimare and the Equestrian Southeast, the magic of friendship has weakened, as Communists, Changeling infiltrators, Fascists, gangs, and corrupt creepy politicians threaten the city. 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.
The party now takes on the task of breaking, entering, and investigating the house of Social Democrat politician Comte "Cheese" Burgher, who is alleged to have 'purchased' two young foals. They have already distracted the guards around the gated community and explored most of the property. Now, Ash tries out her role as a 'dog whisperer,' Dark Star contemplates the evidence he has already collected, Silver shifts between stealing jewelry from innocent third parties and talking about the joyful smell of wingpit sweat, Iron harasses guards by talking to them about queer theory while Onyx acts as his his homosexual partner, Brie tries to get the guards drinking on the job, and Spark follows around the group in the attic.

>>86074"Nice to meet you Brie. I want to thank you for helping us. I blocked your way before because I didn't know if I could trust you, and you stuck with us. I apologize."
>>86078
Nevermind. Disregard previous statement.
>>86073“For that I will need to see”
He places a a device over Silver that shows various colors
“There’s a definite drain on your aura. It looks like she got you good. But this is far from the worst it could be. You’re not so drained that you cannot regrow your magical strength. We have a tonic that can help in the regrowth. Eating sweets can also help. And stay around friends, family and loved ones.”with a chuckle, “but NOT around strange mares”
>>86074Kerr responds
“Die jungen Drohnen kämpfen manchmal”
>>86078Public?
>>86080I suppose you meant the fistfight, which in that case, yes. Absolutely.
You don't really have to tho. I just want to check up on Ash, see if she's okay. >>86075>CN*bows*>changeling drain"Dunno, so far they don't seem to respond to sociopaths, so I should be safe." Brie responds in a rare moment of actual 4th wall breaking.
Thanks for watching btw
>>86077"Nah, don't mention it. I was hoping my speedy escape might hint at a potential risk of authorities present, but it worked out alright in the end."
>>86080Brie smiles encouragingly, oblivious to what Kerr just said.
>>86082More like they don't respond to madponies whose emotions are a mess to begin with, apart from not presenting yourself as a love sucking candidate.
>>86080Silver is relieved by this statement. "Good. I was worried about that. I think I will take this tonic. How much for it?"
>>86086Indeed it was. Did onyx ever get around to carrying Dark Star to the hospital?
>>86092Yep. Dark Star is now out of the hospital and Silver is now there.
>>86092Yeah, him and Spark got Star to the hospital. Spark's right now at Silver's room.
>>86095Yeah. Silver is in the hospital. You should be too, though you don't need to be.
>>86096Then I guess Onyx heads back to the bar.
I wonder how much of an ear he'll have left after his boss gets ahold of him.
>>86097“I thought I was going to have to send out a missing persons’ report” Glistening Glass says sarcastically
>>86087He is stunned
“The public hospitals are free. If you want magicians who will cure you instantly when you sleep with the wrong mare, you must find private doctors”
>>86098Onyx considers saying
"For who? Your wife that never came back from meeting 'a friend?" but decides that he still needs his job since the other one isn't exactly paying well.
>>86099“All your buddies moved up to that room to the left of yours, by the way”
>>86100"Thanks for letting me know"
Onyx sets to work cleaning up and servering anyone there.
>>86098It's Silver's turn to look stunned. "Free? Then how is it you make Bits to keep hospital running?"
>>86104"Huh. So, where does..." Silver stops himself. He wasn't entirely wanting to get into a discussion with the doctor about how the healthcare system works now. "Nevermind. I will take this tonic, if it pleases you."
>>86103I chuckle at the changeling's curiosity.
>>86106“Yes, the tax players are paying for your sexual misadventures. Now get better, and keep it in your sheath”
>>86105Hmmm...
>>86107He comes a little closer, and now pokes at Spark’s shoulder
>>86108Alright, let's finish up the scenic walk. Iron reaches the abbey and knocks on the door.
>>86108Spark tries not to flinch.
>>86111Iron nods. "Hello. I wish to know if Ash is here and if she brought any foals back. I can come in to check, right?"
>>86112He looks at spark and tilts his head
>>86110And thus Silver is released. 12 hours healing under good conditions
>>86113“Right... She did return with foals. She has been with them part of the evening”
>>86114I smile but look to see how Kerr is reacting to this as well.
>>86115He nods and lets himself in. "I just want visual confirmation. After that, I will take my leave. Maybe I will come back to sleep here if she decides to do the same." Iron scratches his side. "If you would allow it, of course."
>>86114Silver leaves the hospital, deciding to head for a general store or grocery store for some sweets, under the doctor's recommendation.
>>86118I think that he robbed two portrait paintings, a red cloak, a stack of bank notes, some antique coins, a booklet that seems to have codes in it, and probably a small set of jewelry
>>86116He sits over in the corner, to himself. If Brie is there he is probably the closest pony, although still a bit distant
>>86119Fortunately, several are nearby
>>86117“We can always provide refugee to wayward spirits”
>>86120He nods. "Now where is she exactly? If she is with sleeping foals, I need some warning. My steps are too loud to sneak by without causing a disturbance." He pokes his chin. He tries to see if the sister attending him is who he thinks he is.
Is she Marey? Also, having some dinner, 20 minutes max >>86120Silver doesn't have much of a sweet tooth, himself, but if the doctor said it will help...
He grabs a few chocolate bars (a dozen: 4 plain, 4 dark, 4 with almonds), and brings them to the cashier to ring them up.
>>861221 bit, 2 tops
I don’t mean to meta game or steer decisions, but is he going to buy anything for the little Wechselbalgs?>>86121“She is upstairs”
Presumably not Marery
Ash’s player isn’t here, so...
>>86123He places a couple Bits on the counter. As he gets ready to leave, he realizes he almost forgot something. "Uh, excuse me? You wouldn't happen to have foal's toys in store?"
Yup. Forgot about it until you reminded me. >>86123I understand. I think the player made Ash go to sleep some posts ago. Iron just wants to witness the scene to confirm Ash's presence in the abbey, then he would fuck off."Thank you." Iron proceeds to go upstairs to see how Ash is doing. Hopefully she is not wounded.
>>86124D'awww
>>86123Suddenly and without warning, Brie gets up out of his chair, leaving in a hurry and a departing "I'll be back in a minute."
He makes a quick route to his hideout to his stashed loot from the previous house, specifically the 'code book'.
