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.

>>86278Iron pauses for a bit. "...is that it?"
>>86279"Well I had to play with
something,... swords and the like were far too big so mostly I played with knives."
>>86280Iron pokes his chin. "So you just took things and played with knives. Did you share those moments with somepony else? Brother? Father? Anyone?"
>>86276Dark star walks over to the bar
>>86282Theoretically, Onyx should be there. Glistening Glass should as well
>>86283Iron glances to the side. "I see. Nevermind." He proceeds to lay his chin on the floor. "Sorry."
>>86285Brie shrugs nonchalantly. "No need, I've had plenty of time to grow acclimated to it."
>>86286Iron does not believe it. He remains silent.
And now I am back.>>86286Silver snaps out of a minor trance he managed to put himself in. "Would you mind sharing story about your foalhood, sometime? Out of everypony in group, I think I know least about you. Except maybe Sister Ash, or Onyx."
>>86284"hey there colts, have you seen the other members of the stallion gang?"
>>86289"Through the door on your left, upstairs, second door. It's that old Stallion Silver's room"
>>86288"Sure thing, maybe at our next slumber party when we're braiding eachother's hair." he says dryly.
>>86291"And here I thought I was the abrasive one." He chuckles. "No need to treat the elderly like that, Brie."
>>86291Silver rolls his eyes at the statement. "It was just question. It is good idea for those working together to get better idea of each other."
>>86290""thanks Mr.glass."
Dark Star puts his arm around blue's neck and walks to silvers room
>>86295A light 'hehe' from Blue, and they go up
>>86294"Maybe I'll tell you of the time a serpent taught me the value of poisons." he says with a wink.
>>86297He raises an eyebrow. "Well, I suppose it is story. Must have at least not ended poorly, for you to be standing here today."
>>86295>>86296The door to his room is currently closed. Star and Skies can hear voices on the other side of it.
>>86298"Not for lack of trying, to be sure."
>>86298Blue Skies contemplates knocking on the door and saying "Police. Open up," but figures she doesn't have enough armor on to make that joke worthwhile
>>86298"Do not tempt fate, Silver." He leans on Silver. "He is a forest fire spiritually, can you not see it?" He whispers to Silver.
>>86299>>86301Silver shrugs to both of them as he goes to answer the knock on the door.
>>86300>>86302Silver doesn't yet open the door, but he calls through it. "Who is it?"
>>86301"Careful now,... bat-like senses." he smirks again.
>>86302
>deleted
What did they mean by this?
>>86304"I have a pegasus mare on my neck that is backed up by a whole organization. I will take my chances." Iron waves off Brie's playful threats.
>>86306Well, the reply still stands.
>>86303 >>86307"I look forward to meeting her." he says, adjusting to partially face the door.
>>86309Iron's ears droop slightly. "Yeah, hello Star. Would you mind not screaming inside buildings? We have foals in here."
>>86310"I can practically smell her coming right about now, judging by Star's presence."
[1d20+11 = 21]
Sleight of hand, 2x
>>86313>>86312Whatever you are doing, Pass
>>86309Blue Skies laughs aloud at this
>>86309>>86300Silver sighs, and opens the door enough to poke his head outside. "Hello Dark Star. Come in." His head turns to the only other pony there. There's a little bit of worry visible in his face. "Oh, Blue. Do you mind if we talk little bit, before you enter?"
>>86312>>86313Ya better not be stealin' my shit.Unless you're drawing hidden knives, in which case try not to kill everyone. >>86316Blue Skies looks strangely at him, not understanding why he won't just let her in the room
"Sure..."
>>86311"Foals?"
>>86316Dark Star Also looks at him strangly
[1d20+3 = 8]>>86317He nods, and lets Dark Star through after heading outside into the hallway himself. Though, once he lets him, he closes the door behind him, leaving Blue and Silver alone outside the room. "So, I suppose you have already heard how mission went, since you arrived here with Dark Star."
Sense Motive: While Silver talks with Blue, he tries to get a good idea of if he can trust Blue with knowing the changelings are there, and not ratting them out to the police.
>>86318In that case, carry on. >>86323"You know... the ones we rescued. Specifically the ones that got you a hospital trip."
>>86323>>86317Iron is confused. He looks in the room to see if those two foals are still in there.
>>86321"I saw many of his pictures. I also received a message that you had the foals, and there was a 'new development,' although Dark Star didn't seem to know what that was. I came here to see what you found that I haven't seen yet"
Blue Skies keeps her secrets
>>86325Small grey pegasus colt sitting next to Silver on the Bed, to his left and closer to the door. Small blue unicorn colt, laying on the bed further from the door on Silver's right, a foot away from Silver
>>86324>>86325>>86326"You dont mean Cockroaches do you?"
