The Adventure continues
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 Eastside Tavern Gang has broken through the house and pool-house of the politician Comte Burgher. What they found has been nothing short of astonishing. Deeds for properties bought by secret societies, seditious communications, cryptic booklets, concerning academic interests, and above all else, a sex dungeon with two young colts chained up, and traumatized. With these, they found something else: two caged and chained up adolescent Changeling drones. So doing what any logically minded group of people would do when encountering caged life-force vampires, they let the things suck on them, then took them home and hugged them and loved them and squeezed them and called them 'George.'
Dark Star is coming to terms with loss in the Stallion's room of the Eastside tavern, while Iron aids him. Silver dreams of an Equestria that is no more and his long lost family (while sleeping in a fairly awkward position). Ash awaits a new dawn of service, Onyx a new life of possible employment, while Brie and Spark stay in a small room with two strange guests

>>88566"Moreso, liberation from desires..." She muses
"Freedom from wealth, from greed, from longing.. anything that would distract one from the path to exaltion."
>>88567"I understand. It is a noble goal, and you seem to be resilient." Iron separates some big and small toys into their respective piles. "What do you define as exaltion, though? How far will you separate yourself from desires? Is it just to possess something of economical value to others?" Iron scratches his helmet.
>>88568".... I don't know..." she says
".. I won't know until I get there.. but for now, I can only train to make myself a better creature.."
>>88569Iron smiles warmly at Ash. "You are by far the best creature I met so far." He puts his unarmored hoof on Ash's shoulder. "I think you are on a good track."
>>88570"... Th-.. Why thank you." She says, with a bit of a stutter
>>88571Iron keeps smiling. "No need to thank me. I did not do anything." He retracts his hoof to continue the toy sorting. A pause. "How many more toys are there? It seems endless. Star sure did a good job if there was any toy shortage."
>>88572"I think that was all of them." She replies, closing a chest
>>88573Iron looks around. "Oh. I guess time flies with you around." He chuckles. "How do you feel? We should be getting ready to meet up with the mademares. Unless you had other plans, of course."
I hope Star's player's ok
>>88574"I have no other reservations. I'll be ready shortly."
>>88576Iron nods. "Alright, we should meet up at the tavern like yesterday. We may need Spark's silver tongue. Do you need my help with anything?"
>>88577"No, just need to change my clothes." She says, heading off to her room.
tlTbh, I'm feeling really tired tonight...
I really need to fix my sleep schedule.
>>88590Oh hello there Silver. Star seems to be asleep right now. I think the GM is here still, just spectating. Brie is nowhere to be found and Spark has become a pile of bones in your room.
>>88592Oh. Good thing you're here still.
>>88602I don't think so. Judging from pic related, kirins just have a layer of scales on their back. Maybe you can bend the rules a little bit and make your scales form the shape of a tree through color shading, the darker scales making the shape of a tree while the cleaner scales cover any gaps on the kirin's back.
>>88603I like how their horn patterns vary by gender.
>>88603>>88604Oh wow, I didn't even notice that.I know that feel sometimes.
>>88606Yeah, seems that their main variations are their horn patterns, eyelashes, eyeshades, and whether their manes curl in front or behind the ears.
>>88607Interesting. They don't follow ponies' way of distinguishing stallions from mares by their snout. So if I base myself on your assertions, there's maybe 2 male kirins from the lot in the pic judging by either horn pattern or lack of eyelashes.
Stallions are still in low amount even in kirin societies. >>88613Oof. I think I went a litte overkill with that boop. Have a (you)
>>88615Well, welcome to the 'still not ready to sleep' party. Have a sip of wine if you'd like.
>>88617I'm sick and I'm tired, but I still can't sleep...
>>88618Ah, Khajit can help you with your needs.
If you can play some music, play this tune:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UXgqDlrqmzoIt should help you nod off.
Apologies for dying on everyone there.
>>88630Pretty sure everyone else did. GM did not react to your appearance. Star got knocked out by himself in an attempt to rearrange his sleeping schedule. Spark, I think, does not want to butt in conversations out of politeness. Brie is in a similar position to you and the other two players, me and Ash's, were not at your location.
>>88630Last I recall, Silver just finished snuggling the bug
>>88632Yep. Silver was snuggling Kerr.
>>88632Yup. And there was something about Kerr being sweaty, for some reason.
>>88635Oh, so that's why my joke didn't make sense. I thought Kerr was the one being sweaty.
Okay, I'm drawing up some serious blanks right now, so gimme some time to get this all sorted out. Sorry.
>>88640Here. Though not only have I made no progress in clearing these mental blockers, they've been joined by a melancholy mood swing, so I'll be next to worthless today.
>>88644Hope you feel better later.

Well, today was pretty eventful
>>88671There was plenty of noise,....
>>88671Yep. Storm decided to start flooding my house. hhat about you?
Probably 'cause I punched trees and Ash called for water magic >>88671There wasn't very much that could be done about that..
I had plans for today, but they got thrown out the window due to scheduling.
>>88673Our district's Justice of the Peace invited me to follow him around today, and I was (finally) sworn in as a licensed attorney
