Occupied Equestria, Day 5, Mid to Late Morning

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.

Ash and Iron seem to want to head out from the abbey. Dark Star was having a conversation with the rescued foals after doing community service. Silver is having a surprisingly friendly conversation with Blue Skies about politics. Spark is babysitting and Brie is supposed to be doing the same. Onyx is sleeping.

It's void time, ladies and gentlemen!
For this particular episode, we will focus on a stallion chained to a crippling curse that forces him to abandon society or risk losing his freedom and life.
Who is this stallion? What curse am I talking about? Will he survive? Those questions will be answered this Sunday 14:00 EST/16:00 ART, though beware, as only the braver, edgier viewers may stomach this stallion's poor fate and actions. I shall only give you a hint:

One's body cannot be controlled by his actions.

This is an elaborate attempt to ask if anyone's here, as well as introduce a character with an assumingly harsh weakness that may cause severe difficulties to establish himself in any civilized society.

I know about your mode of clocks. It should be 4:00 PM ART/2:00 PM EST, iirc.

Curse itself could either be seen with dread or contempt. Simple 'If you don't do X willingly, you will turn into Y' kind of curse. I was thinking a super beefed up, massive hunk of an Earth Pony whose curse is to suddenly gain +8 to Str and Con and suffer -6 to all but Dex. Previous plan may have allowed him to be a PC but it was too focused on sex to be taken seriously, at least that's what I think atm.
He could be a boss on a cabin or forest, whose attacks are unarmed and grappling. Weakness is that he's slow as fuck and doesn't have any armor, but his HP should be quite beefed up with his Con stat.

Oh, that wasn't the actual curse I had on my mind. It was supposed to be something akin of 'find a mare to mate with willingly or make a mare suffer rape for it' kind of curse. That's why I would bump up the str and con for this character in order to succeed at all grapples and 'destroy' her. His size increases to large instead of medium to show this change, aside from dealing 1d4 unarmed damage.

Usually the spell you cast has outlines for what you can write.
Bestow curse is a third level spell. Greater Bestow Curse is 8th level. I think only Wizards and Clerics get those spells though.

I've got the beginnings of one you wouldn't be able to use for whatever ideas you've got going on in your head, but I'm having trouble figuring out what kind of benefit to give along with it so it's balanced.

Curse of Non-Violence: Any wounds you inflict on opponents in combat are also dealt back onto you, lowering your total hit points for a period of 24 hours after the wound has been initially inflicted. This damage cannot be healed during this 24 hour period, though normal wounds you sustain from opponents are not affected by this curse. After 24 hours are up, these wounds can heal like normal.

I can use it for my bard, so there's that.
Of course, you should take a feat that either increases your 'get the fuck out of dodge' capacity aka feats that improve your AC or run speed or have some focus skill on a skill.

Nono, I wasn't asking to plant a curse right now on Iron. More like asking you what curse would you create if you had the chance.

Besides the benefit of not being able to see the results of Silver's most recent activities, she once again gains a clearer view of the stripe Silver mentioned: a dark grey colored stripe of fur, running down his back along his spine, from his mane to his dock. Blue gets the feeling it's the same color as his mane and tail used to be before age gave them into a dull silver color.

Silver takes another sip of his own tea, almost finished with it now. "It depends, I suppose. For me, he provided just what I needed for my early life, but I do not doubt that my own experience cannot be extended to every individual. He certainly tried as hard as any single parent could, especially with balancing taking care of me and taking care of his smithy. As soon as I was big enough, he combined those two duties and apprenticed me. It was not too long after that I took interest in ways of sword and hammer, so he started to train me in these arts as well. It was thanks to these that he taught me responsibility, discipline, duty, and honor, all necessary qualities for warriors. Combined with my schooling, it all took up much of my time in day, but I did not care too much. Extent of his care for me was greater than this, of course, but these are what stood out most about my time with him. He was as much my teacher as he was my father."

He turns to show Blue one of his flanks, and the cutie mark emblazoned upon it: a sword in the middle of a mighty downwards arc. "I am skilled at delivering mighty, crushing blows in combat by pouring my heart, my soul, my everything into one single strike. I do not know how much more precise I can get."

Iron clears his throat. "I know you were having a conversation with my client right now, but let me ask you something. How many times have the foal disbehaved in front of other ponies like myself?" He supposes that if he plant some seeds of doubt in Brooks' mind, Henhill will be let go of his training.
