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.

Hopefully, if this works, we can use this strategy to the other mademare.

I suppose that's what we should do.
Just going to hold up on that until he becomes dismissive of Iron's arguments, though. I would like not to use rolls unless we prepare for a fight.

Let us pray that the mademare actually feels a little threatened by any colt betrayal.

What's a mademare? I've honestly thought it's just a self-made mare in business, or a mare that makes stuff.

It was a stupid joke. If there is going to be some sort of statement about a character that paints that character in a negative light, I’d rather it be delivered in character. Always better to hear it from the horse’s mouth

Eh. It depends on what is being deleted. In this case, it's no biggie.

>What's a mademare?
Honestly don't know. I suppose it's wordplay for mademan, which seems to be mafia slang for fully initiated mafia members.

It'd make sense that mare would sub for man in some sayings, since Equestria has a mildly matriarchal social structure.

Welcome, fillies and gentlecolts, to another episode of Void Adventures!
In this episode, we explore a bitter unicorn actor whose life was ruined by the changeling invasion, having been forced to flee his theater in order to escape the changeling's grasp and become a slave to them.
What will a composed stallion do when his life is stolen from him? Does he just sit there and take it or seek retribution for his loss? We shall see.

Random character ideas.
This stallion would be a neutral evil bard who will stop at nothing to obtain power and make the changelings submit for what they did aka a probable Blach Hooves recruit up to a general if enough time passes and he's successful in his missions.

Neutral Evil Bard is an interesting Concept.
Maybe the music could be heavy metal rock. Dirge Singer is also a good PrC for edgy bards.

He could be a lawlful psion telepath too. I wanted him to be a cold, ruthless bastard that wanted everyone to follow his path or die. He was supposed to be a mare, but that brings the eventual problem of lineage and unavailability.

For that, you wanna be a Thrallherd PrC. Great at enslaving people, and the bonus followers are good fodder for combat.

For a non-psionic build, Mindbender is basically the same thing.

He's supposed to be a pyschopath, so that's not such a bad thing. Not the 'hahaha I'm cRaZy' kind, but the super ultra mega logical kind. It would show how he doesn't care about ethics or morals.
Still, it may be too much. I have to keep the vanilla status.

Well, Thrallherd is a vanilla psionic PrC.
Mindbender was meant to be a replacement for Thrallherd as a non-psionic, arcane version.

No. It's a class.
Thrallherd is a raw prestige class. One of the psionic ones, that's actually decent.

It's just like leadership, but inspread of a cohort you get a 'thrall' and instead of followers you get 'believers'.
Unlike with leadership, you don't take penalties for leading them to their dooms. Believers are canon fodder, slaves to your every whim.
Great for Enchanters. Mindbender can even work as a Bard PrC.

Better to go with post-punk, such as Molchat Doma, Justice or The Soft Moon.

I don't really understand how it works. You have to have like +10 in charisma or something to have a thrall with believers?

No. You get the believers just like you do followers with the leadership feat. I don't remember the details of the class, but +10 charisma is insane demigod tier.
Maybe it just requires you to have a minimum of 10 charisma. An enchanter or Telepath should always have a bit of chaRosman anyway, since some spells require opposed charisma checks.

What's the leadership score that the thrallherd has? I think it's charisma based.

It depends on your level.
Mindbender works the same way though. It's better for most campaigns, since psionic an be a headache (punlike intended).

But ur PC still alive, so don't go making too many more characters.

Maybe he's visiting the world he's created.
Maybe he's conquering the bugs and making them submit to his will and establishing a fascist Equestria under his rule Manos-style.
Maybe his lawyer gig is making him decent dosh.
