Set 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.
Silver is learning about foreign pony cultures, Dark Star is preparing to put on a play for the children of the Saint Prancis Orphanage, Onyx has received several possible missions from the government, Brie is buying clothing, presumably for a long journey. Ash and Iron are leaving the office of a now enraged gangster... or not.

[1d20+5 = 14][2d20 = 20]>>92801Silver's Sword cuts into the creature, into organs that seem to themselves be decayed and pickled. But it lets out a guttural cry, and attacks Silver
What's his AC?
[1d8+5 = 13]>>92803You know what, I think i can guess what lands and what doesn't. A hoof hits a rock and Silver dodges the bit, but one hoof hits him squarely in the neck
>>92809Indeed. In that case, let's continue."HRRK!" The lake ghast's hoof tears through Silver's neck, taking a chunk of his flesh with it. Silver holds a forehoof to the new wound, choking on a curse yet-to-be uttered. Nothing critically vital was hit however, and his unconscious utters a prayer to his lucky stars for that.
His magic remains stalwart despite the strike to his throat, and takes another swing to the left with his greatsword, focusing less on raw power and more on just getting the hit in.
>>92810>>92811Silver's sword barely penetrated through it's thick, leathered hide, but it does, doing still more damage
[1d20+3 = 11][2d20 = 17]>>92813>>92813The old wrinkly soldier is damaged, and now wears the scars and wounds Silver has inflicted upon it. But it isn't out
yet >>92814It looks as if none of his claws pierce Silver's armor
This is why creatures in the SRD generally need to be buffed [1d20+8 = 13]>>92815To be fair, when that ghast hits, it hits hard.Silver is starting to enjoy this armor he had bought. Wordlessly, he makes what he hopes is his final strike, aimed near the wounds he had inflicted with his first swing.
[1d20+3 = 9][2d20 = 19]>>92816His hopes crash and deflect against the soldier's hide like his hopes of growing old with a loving family
It attacks yet again
[1d8+5 = 12]>>92817As if getting de ja vu, it makes a nearly identical attack to its previous partially successful one
[1d20+8 = 11]>>92818Another chunk of flesh, blood, and sinew is torn from Silver's neck, making him seriously question his ability to speak or breathe after this encounter. Well, if his mind wasn't occupied with the red-hot pain that is under normal circumstances known as his throat.
He swings again, now desperate to bring this lake ghast its much-needed peace.
[1d20+3 = 5][2d20 = 13]>>92819If Silver has any real regrets in his life, they'd probably come to his mind about now
[1d20+8 = 22]>>92821Even as Silver dodges and blocks this round of the ghast's attacks, he sends up a silent prayer to whoever is listening to help him at least make it through this one battle. He'll help ponies, he'll try to be a better pony than he is, he'll do everything to make it up to Blue for what he did. If only they'll guide his sword, and bring peace to this tortured soul.
He swings again.
>>92822If he can't bring peace to his own soul, perhaps he can bring peace to that before him which was once a pony. It's limbs shatter, a leg falls off, and the things remains in a single piece only hanging by its spinal cord. It's brown uniform is in tatters. His cattlemare's hat remains fastened to his head, however. He'll go no more walzing muletilda
>>92824It's finally over...His breath comes in short, pained gasps for air, and his hoof is the only thing keeping him from bleeding out onto the quarry floor. Crimson red flows down his neck and foreleg, staining the collar and hoof cuff of his olive-drab uniform, and dripping down onto the cold stone below him. The ghast did a number on him in that encounter. Wasting no time, should there be any more hiding underneath the surface of the water, he quickly grabs the pony's rifle
probably a Rose Type-E, since that's a New Marelander soldier and looks through what remains of the pony's possessions. He'd bold his breath to avoid smelling the rotting fish aroma of the lake ghast, but he is finding it hard enough to breathe as is.
>>92791"Did you have any plans for tonight?"
>>92826"Silver claimed he would be done with his own mission aroun 5 PM, but otherwise, no."
>>92825Most of his possessions are damaged. He does have a gun, though it isn't quite a rifle, and a dog tag, as well as a knife, a water container, two campaign medals, and a set of binoculars. And one piece of paper that happened to be rolled up in the water container...
[1d20+5 = 24]>>92827Silver isn't in a state at this moment where he can examine these objects, so he simply takes them all to avoid wasting more time. He offers only a quick, worried glance to the water before making his way back up to the top of the quarry.
Heal: After having suffered the small trip with his injured throat, he sits down and brings out his medical kit, using it and the supplies inside to stop the bleeding and bandage the wound.
>>92828The water's a little disturbed. Hopefully from the same lake ghast. He is able to bandage himself, and stop the bleeding
[1d8+1 = 6]>>92829With the wound dressed, he downs a potion of Cure Light Wounds to help it heal. He also takes the time to read whatever is on the piece of paper, dog tag, and medals, look at the other objects he acquired for any signs of serious damage, and give the firearm an examination.
>>92830The piece of paper:
"To all of you, the fighting mares of the 19th, I want to congratulate you on your courage and vigor. After months of almost stale fighting in the brutal jungles of the South, we have broken the back of the Equestrian military. Victory now is nothing less than inevitable. After a half of a millennium of domination, the population of New Mareland has firmly and resolutely declared its independence against its puppet masters, and survived the tests against its sovereignty. The 19th Infantry will have the honor of eliminating the last resistance, and likely have the honor of accepting the final surrender before the
buggers our comrades in arms. One final battle is all that remains. I am honored to lead you, and Godspeed.
- General Ironwood"
Dog Tag - Private Green Basin, 19th Infantry Division
Campaign Medal, Sicameon Campaign. Mintoaurian Campaign. Defense of the Homeland, New South Bales
The water bottle is fine. The Binoculars.... well, they at least need the fluid that seeped inside removed. The gun looks to be a very ugly submachine gun of some sort
>>92827"We Should Go to one of the carnivals tonight."
>>92833"yea i thought it would be a good time."
>>92834"I've never been to a carnival"
>>92835"You'll love it. the roller coasters are Awesome."
>>92836"Are you familiar with them?"
>>92837"yea i rode a roller coaster a few times as a colt. it's what i imagine flying is like."
>>92838She leans over and pats him on the head
"You poor flightless pony"
>>92831The letter brings a frown to Silver's face, and in a hoarse voice he speaks: "If only your country had not invaded, we would have won this War. And we would not have to deal with Chrysalis any longer." With a softer voice, or at least as soft as he can make it, he looks down into the quarry at where he and Green Basin had fought and speaks again. "Rest now, Private. Your fight is over."
He puts the dog tag and medals in a special compartment in his bags, making a mental note to give them to the Black Hooves when he returns. He also puts the binos and the water bottle away in his bags, separate from his other possessions, and slings the SMG over his shoulder. The Bits Gun, if his memory of firearms is correct. A significantly lighter and cheaper weapon compared to the Equestrian-made Limestone or the Crystal Empire's Snowflake SMG, though it can't be argued that it's still an effective weapon even if it's a bit less reliable than others.
Feeling slightly better, at least to the point where he can breathe, he heads into Curwhinny Farm's basement. He puts on a gas mask and an air cannister before heading into the dangerous, poison gas-filled tunnels proper.
>>92840*though it can't be argued it's not still
>>92840>less reliableReee, it's specially made for jungle environments.
He should be able to find the basement soon enough. His eyes should gaze upon the spot where he got his ass beat by Iron in a stupid fight that he took basically just so Skies could have sex
was it worth it/>>92841"Alright, I withdraw my pity for you flightless creatures"
>>92843Dark Star Chuckles
"although,sometimes i do wish i was born with my brothers wings instead of my good looks."
>>92844She smiles
"Not every pony can have both"
>>92845Dark Star Laughs
He Finishes his pizza,and continues drinking his wine
"i probably shouldn't be drinking this much,And i definitely shouldn't go back to the abbey after this."
>>92846"You really probably shouldn't. Alcohol can be a dangerous drug"
She takes a large sip of her wine
[1d20+3 = 19]>>92843With his gas mask affixed to his face, and his new flashlight turned on to light the way, he enters the tunnels.
Listen: Because he doesn't trust his eyes in this dark, and because he can't smell any ghasts that would normally be coming his way with his gas mask on, Silver keeps his ears open for any sign of trouble as he travels along.
Probably, if Star hadn't accepted the fight after Silver got beat down anyways. >>92847Dark Star takes an even larger ship of his wine
"ah,i'll be fine."
>>92848Oh there's movement alright
>>92849"So, you're of.... 'mixed' heritage?" she asks
>>92850"Yeah,my Father's Father "Black Star" was a Pegasus. i think Dad said he was from New Mareland. As Far as i know thats the only non-earth pony relative i have."
>>92850For a brief moment, Silver lifts his mask, downs a potion of Hide From Undead, and puts the mask back on without drawing breath. There is no way he's going to face any ghasts down here, especially after getting his throat ripped out back in the quarry. He lifts his pocket watch to the light, checking the time so he knows when he'll need to down another potion.
Okay, I should be set. Silver once more continues down the path to his goal.
>>92852Where is his goal, precisely?
>>92851"From New Mareland?" She raises an eyebrow at Dark Star
>>92853With a significant amount of the left fork discovered, Silver takes a right at the fork in the tunnel. In his mind, he remembers that this is where they saw the group of foal ghasts fled.
>>92854Oh, but they can moveGoing down the first section of the hallway, Silver comes upon a closed wooden door
>>92855Might as well try it to see if it is locked. Silver does as much as his thoughts say.
>>92856It does indeed seem to be locked
>>92857Might be Curwhinny kept something here, then. Lacking the door-crushing telekinetic strength of his compatriots, he looks for either a lock or hinges he can break using his hammer.
>>92853"Yea from New Mareland, he immigrated to Equestria 80 years ago. I have some Faint Memories of him,he was in the hospital and he was close to the end at the time, so i didn't get to know him. But Dad told me he was in the New Mareland Army before he immigrated here."
>>92858The door itself is very old, and probably weak. There is a lock on the right and hinges on the left
>>92859"I see" she says
"Any Unicorns in your family?"
[1d20+2 = 16]>>92860Strength: With his hammer in his telekinetic grip, he strikes the lock to try to break it open.
>>92861It breaks open. Not just the lock breaking, but the wood next to it breaks as well, folding in two. It appears to have decayed on the inside
>>92862That works. Pushing his way past the destroyed door, he takes a look at what such a locked door could be hiding.
>>92860"There are no Pickle heads in my family tree."
>>92863Thus far, it appears to be a mirror of the other side. There are crypts on a wall, with a hallway extending down to his left
>>92865Why would this be locked? Was other side locked as well before we arrived?Silver takes a brief look for any books in the crypts before proceeding down the hallway.
>>92866Okay, I have to sleep now
Hope you are not kill tomorrow Who is available today? I think it will be at least an hour before I am available, but i should be available later
>>92871Ikr? You will manage, don't worry.>>92870It all depends on your decision and the dice.
>>92866The crypts themselves appear to, well, at least stay closed. Three of them are sealed shut
[1d20-1 = -15]>>92873What is with this side of crypts?Search: Silver looks around the sealed crypts for any way to open them.
>>92874That would most assuredly confuse the hell out of Silver. >>92873Whispering to the Lings (waiting, if any ponies are in earshot) Brie says "Möchten Sie etwas zu sich nehmen? Es ist keine Liebe, aber es gibt viele materielle Dinge zu essen, die Sie vielleicht lecker finden."
>>92875They are sealed, although it looks like applying a fairly small amount of pressure with a narrow instrument, like a crowbar (or sword) on the edges allow them to be pryed open
>>92877This raises some serious questions about Changeling biology
>>92878Her last question was “Do you have any unicorn heritage?”
>>92877Both reply: “Ja”
“Sicher”
>>92880Okay,
Iron does NOT get insta-killed after shaking the chain. He does get scratched
“Rawr!”
>>92879There's a benefit to being an old relic like Silver, he realizes, as he unsheathes his greatsword and attempts to pry open the sealed crypts.
Not sure if that requires another skill check or not.Also, can I rearrange some of Silver's skills? I'd like to take one point out of both Swim and Jump and put them into Climb, and change his two points in Handle Animal to Heal. >>92879"No,I don't have any pickle heads in my family tree."
>>92881Brie takes a seat at one of the tables, looking around for a menu.
>>92881Ahok. It felt like you were ignoring me for some reason and I wasn't sure if it was intentional or not.Iron now understand that the tiger, admittedly obvious, has grown to dislike the chain if its clawing at him is any indication. He throws the last piece of meat over the tiger, aiming to land inside the cage behind him.
(This way I can place the chain on its neck while it's distracted again.)
That would work right? >>92883She nods, “Good sir. Speaking of which, can you believe that Silver is keeping Changeling drones in his room?”
>>92882They plop right open
At least the first two are occupied by corpses
>>92884A menu is available, and details a number of items, from pasta to special sandwiches, to many varies of fruits and breads
>>92885It was because of the tiger and iron’s shot rollsWell... it’s distracted
>>92887As to be expected. Silver is more concerned with if there's any books to be had inside of them.
>>92887Eeeeeeee's internally.
Are there kiwis? And what about desserts? "Haben Sie schon einmal Pony gegessen?"
>>92887"it infuriates me that he wants to take them back to where they will continue to feed."
>>92889In any case, I'll have to be AFK for a bit.
>>92889Sure, try it
>>92888The first two, no. But the third one... it has a number of written items in it. Notebooks and books, and a Crystal. However, the books are damaged, some burned or torn
>>92890Yes. Yes there are, though they are abnormally expensive thanks to the shortage. These is also chess cake, cheeses, ice creams, and pie
“Ich glaube nicht”
“Einmal”
>>92891“He said he was only keeping them for a couple days. Didn’t you let one feed off of you?”
>>92893"yea,i felt sorry for it. it was starving."
>>92893Silver grabs what can be recovered, giving them a look-through to see what they contain, or at least once contained. He also examines the crystal he found.
>>92894“But you don’t feel sorry for them now?
>>92895These do appear to be alchemical books, although how much could be salvaged is questionable. The Crystal is pink and dodecahedron shaped
>>92896"no, this experience wasn't pleasant.it made me feel apathetic. and my memories of you turned gray."
>>92896Hmm. Best to bring it all. Black Hooves will be better suited to sorting through it. Silver grabs and bags the various books and notes, as well as the crystal in a secure pouch where it's less likely to shatter. It's obviously got some sort of connection to all of this. What exactly that is, Silver doesn't know.
With that taken care of, he continues down the hallway. He wonders if this connects to what they saw earlier, when they explored the middle section underneath the well.
>>92897“Ein Rad Käse”
If it wasn’t obvious, this is Wesley
>>92899It appears as if it does. Before the center, are more off shoot rooms, like on the other side. Down the hall, he can see one of the ghouls. It is wearing no clothing and looking over near his direction
>>92900Surely it has not worn off already... Silver slinks off into the first side room to both see what's inside and check his watch for how long it's been since he last had a potion.
>>92900"Hat es dir gefallen? Sie haben Käse und Käsekuchen."
>>92898She places a hoof over, and pets him around the ear
“He was wanting to contact Immigration after a couple days”
>>92901A duplicate of the other side, with a Well in the center and alchemical comments
One basic note book
>>92902“Es ist nicht schlecht. Ich kenne Pony nicht gut. Ich kann weder Blätter noch Gras hören”
>>92903"they'll continue to feed on our brothers and sisters."
Dark Star's Ears droop
>>92903This is turning out to be a treasure trove. Silver grabs what he sees, and looks into the well to see if it, too, has ghasts inside it.
>>92903"Sie könnten den Käsekuchen probieren. Ich weiß nicht, wie Wechselbalg-Paletten mit Pony (oder Bat) vergleichbar sind, aber Käsekuchen ist wie ein süßer Käse. Sie sind als Dessert sehr beliebt."
[1d20+10 = 25]>>92893Okay. Back.Iron walks to the tiger, then attempts to put the chain on the tiger's neck. Rolling grapple for successful chain placing and minimize resistance from the tiger.
>>92904She pets both of his ears
>>92905It is sealed
>>92906He smiles
“Das kann ich versuchen”
>>92907Damn. It growls, but bends back down to eat
>>92908Probably for best.Silver moves into the next side room. If it's the same as the other side, then including this second room there should be four more left.
>>92909Indeed. The door is locked on this one
>>92908Iron nods. He walks out of the cage and closes the door, locking it.
(Well that's two parts done. Now how to transport the tiger? I am supposed to bring it out back outside, but with how the tiger is acting, it is unlikely to end well without more scratching sessions.)
>>92910More locks. I am starting to feel this is running theme.Silver looks for the lock on this one to bash open with his hammer.
>>92908"Und was ist mit dir Kerr?"
>>92912On the right
>>92911Well... it’s occupied now
>>92913“Vielleicht kann ich Brot und Butter mitnehmen...”
[1d20+2 = 5]>>92914Strength: Grabbing his trusty hammer, Silver strikes at the lock to try to break it.
>>92914"Sehr gut. Ich werde die Kiwis haben. Ich liebe Kiwis. Sie können beide probieren, wenn Sie möchten." Brie looks up to see if there is any wait staff, or perhaps a counter from which to place an order for noms.
>>92915Uh
>>92916There is one crew pony who is clearly dining car staff
Wesley: “Kann ich den Kiwi haben”
>>92914Iron pokes his hoof.
(I should probably make sure to know where to go before doing anything. The tiger should accept more meat later.)
With that, he looks for the path to go escort the tiger towards the other cage.
[1d20+2 = 19]>>92917Come on, Silver, do not give up on me now.Strength: Putting more force behind his swing, Silver strikes again.
>>92917"Ja bitte" Brie stands up and approaches the crew pony. "Good afternoon sir, how might I go about placing an order?"
>>92908Dark Star has a relaxed look on his face. his ears twitch slightly from the touch.
>>92919It breaks down both the lock and door itself. This Well is sealed, and the components on the far wall are intact. There is a note
>>92920“Well, we’re only just beginning. But I guess you can order now. I can take it”
>>92921“I take it you wouldn’t offer yourself to it again?”
>>92922"I would like a slice of cheesecake, some bread and butter, and 2 kiwis please." Internal EEEEEEE'ing intensifies.
>>92922As if he was drilled for it, Silver grabs the components, and gives the note a read-through before taking it as well.
>>92922"Tartarus no.i cherish my memories. i don't want them messed with."
>>92923“Very well. Be advised that kiwis are a bit rare right now”
>>92924It’s a lot of components
The note
“My dear Cinnamon Corn. Recall what I told you before about the ability to distill remains into their essential salts, and reanimate the spirit upon summons. While this has not helped me in my search to conquer death, it has provided me with a new means to gain insight into the magical arts, and into long hidden and distant occult societies. Buried in the tombs and catacombs of this world are great libraries of knowledge, that I now have the means to uncover and extract, if perhaps with a bit of, shall we say, ‘persuasion,’ from the souls who had thought to hide it. The mysteries of the universe shall be even mysteries no longer.
- Joseph Curwhinny”
>>92925No, he grapples it... but the chain itself doesn’t quite seem to be in very good condition.
Was he looking for more food?
>>92926“Your memories are fine, probably”
She pets him more
>>92927"I appreciate that, but as long as you accept certificates, there should be no issue." Brie smiles.
>>92927Mysteries we might have accidentally ablaze...Silver wasn't expecting this much of a haul. He puts what he can't fit in his bags into a pile in this room. On his way back, he'll grab it and take it back to Blue.
Onwards Silver goes into the third room.
>>92927I grappled the tiger and placed the chain on its neck.
If that did not happen, Iron has to go in again and regrapple.
I was thinking of knowing where should Iron go to transport the tiger to the other cage.
I'll probably use food to lure it there. That is why I'd like to know the way to avoid any accidents.
>>92928“Very well”
Because of the simple nature of the foods requested, the bread and butter, as well as the kiwis, are produced after around a minute
The bread is warm, and at least seems to be freshly baked, and the kiwis are cold
>>92929“The feeding only takes away emotions, not memories”
>>92932"i still don't trust them."
>>92932"Thank you gentlecolt." Brie smiles until he walks away. He then looks at the Lings briefly before giving into his desires and digging into his kiwi.
>>92931>WhereThis was told to Iron. Up the stairs, through the back door, outside.
>>92933She nods
“That’s fair, i was just contrasting the attitudes you two have towards the creatures”
>>92934Kerr variously bites at the bread
It’s fucking amazing. Sweet and with great texture. Are two, really enough?
>>92935Depends on how expensive they are. One is for Kerr.
>>92930The third room has a broken open door. The wooden planks that would cover the well are also broken
>>92936More expensive than fruit should be, but less expensive that cheesecake
>>92937Cross that bridge when I get to it.
>>92937Hmm. Did something break inside, or break out? After performing a search for any notes, books, or components, Silver peaks into the well to see if its occupant is still here.
>>92935Ah, dang. Well, I'll try some lateral thinking.Iron, remembering where he needs to take the tiger now, proceeds to open up any doors between the tiger's position to his due destination if the cage is empty of course. If it's not, all doors except the cage are due to be opened.
>>92935"How Do you feel about them?"
>>92941"Kerr, eines davon ist für dich" Brie says placing a kiwi on his plate with only a sliver of reluctance.
>>92938Kerr sniffs the bread, then bites at it, and licks the butter
The cheese cake comes before Wesley, who pls Ed his hooves on the table and starts biting at it
>>92939This one is empty
No notes or books, at least that survive
>>92940Uh... sure, he can do that
>>92941“Where I’m from, griffins are more of the problem”
>>92942Kerr - who, mind you, looks like a bat pony - sniffs at the fruit, almost like he is more accepting of a fruit that is covered in fur.
>>92943Two more rooms left. These ones, they most likely broke out. Silver continues to clear the last couple rooms in this section of the catacombs.
>>92943"griffons are a problem as well. but surely you have to have an opinion about
Them."
>>92944This next room is not a “well” room, but rather seems to have a wooden table in it. Two, in fact, plus space for chemical containers, and chains on the wall. This room looks more “smashed” than those before, with broken glass on the ground
>>92945“That I do. Dirty creatures are a threat to ponykind. They must be controlled”
>>92943I'll wait for them to finish before continuing
>>92943After this action, Iron goes back to the fridge. He's going to need some more meat to lure the tiger with him.
(Hopefullly the tiger does not lunge at me for having a piece of meat on me.)
[1d20-1 = -5]>>92946Search: Silver looks for anything recoverable in this room, as well as keeping track of where all the glass is so he doesn't step on it all. He might be wearing thick military boots to protect his hooves for this adventure, but that doesn't mean he wants to get glass stuck in them.
>>92948It’s the last piece, but it is a very large one. The tiger is already looking a bit... shall we say, lethargic
>>92947Kerr his fangs into the kiwi, trying to suck its life juices out. He doesn’t appear to know how to eat it correctly. Wesley is intensely licking the cheese, rather than biting.
>>92949Nothing appears recoverable in this room. Maybe one container of unidentifiable liquid.
>>92950Well, it is something. Silver puts it with the others, and heads to the last room. He wonders if all of that got smashed when the mining operations got too close to the catacombs.
>>92950>lethargicWell, if you think it's a simple guiding through gentle chain pulls, I'll go with it.Iron shakes his head.
"Now it seems like a cute kitty."
Iron walks towards the tiger's cage, opening the gate and picking up the other end of the chain tied to the tiger. A gentle tug ensues to guide him along.
"Come along, we are moving."
(Why am I talking to a tiger? I do not think he can understand me.)
>>92946Dark Star's pupils expand slightly and he has the dopeyest smile on his face.
"How Though?"
>>92950sighBrie takes a fork and says to Wesley "Wesley, du isst es so." He cuts a tiny piece of cheesecake and demonstrates eating it. He then turns to Kerr and says "Versuchen Sie es zu beißen, um mit den Zähnen ein Stück davon zu entnehmen."
You said cheese, but I assume you meant Kiwi >>92951On the way, he sees another of the little things. Though they aren’t
that little
>>92953“They’ve repeatedly attacked pony nations in Thebes East over the centuries. A perennial threat.”
>>92954I think Kerr has the kiwi and Wesley the cheese cake.
Wesley takes the piece, smushes it around in his mouth, and swallows. Kerr gives an expression.of “oh,” then begins to tear off the flesh of the furry fruit, and likewise smush it in his mouth. Both colts seem to like the sweet flavor
>>92956As much as he can understand the reasoning of why Curwhinny did what he did, and even sympathize with him, he still hurts for the victims of his experimentations.
>>92956"i wasn't aware there were Hives in the East. And How Should they be controlled?""
>>92957This last room on the right is sort of similar to the last one, with tables near the walls, a few containers, and a a section of the wall with restraints on it. On one of the tables is the skeleton of a quadruped.
>>92958"I meant the Griffins are a threat, although yes, there are Changeling hives in the East. The Griffins can be controlled by placing them politically subject to pony rule."
>>92959Now, just what happened to you? Before taking care of the containers in this room, Silver inspects the skeleton for any sort of sign of its death or identity.
>>92961It seems to be identifiable as a wolf, or possibly a large dog. The cause of death is not easily determined. Parts of the flesh seem to be preserved on it, by some unknown process
>>92962It moves out, but only very reluctantly. Notably, it does not try to kill Iron
Iron is literally herding cats, by the way
>>92963Silver doesn't very much like that, or what that could imply. He keeps an eye on the skeleton as he gathers the containers in this room and puts them back with the others.
>>92964Not very many containers here, and again, far more are broken or shattered than intact. On the ground is a notebook, open and more than a little damaged
>>92965Clicking his tongue in disappointment, he grabs it to see if there's any recoverable text within.
>>92963I'm herding pussy :3Iron now guides the kitty out back to the other cage.
(Hopefully the mare does not get too scared to see me bloodied. She seems like a strong pony. Rays better be in her room. I would hate to see her horrified by the scene.)
>>92966It looks stained and degraded, by moisture and by spilled chemicals. it also is not very organized. but it looks like exactly the kind of material the Blackhooves want
>>92967As iron grabs the pussy, he is able to get her up the stairs. But she seems to be, well, almost sleepy. At least she's not running away
>>92969"Do you have any thoughts on the subject, Dark Star?"
>>92955Eventually, the little colts finish eating those two items, albeit after very awkward eating and not seeming to understand either how to use utensils or chew
>>92968Silver takes it. He'll have to mention how a portion of what he's found so far was already in a damaged state when he collected it.
After having put what containers he could recover with the others, he checks his pocket watch again to see how long it's been since he's had his previous potion.
[1d20+5 = 9]>>92968Now I have to grab the pussy.Iron, a little frustrated but thankful that the tiger is a bit calmer than before, goes to pick up the big kitty.
(Hopefully it does not mind.)
I'll roll strength just for funsies.
>>92973And, not quite. Tigers are lazy as fuck, which Iron is now learning
>>92972At least 10 minutes, probably
[1d20+5 = 17]>>92974Iron huffs in slight annoyance.
"Come on. You have lifted bigger things before."
(Granted, they were not alive, but still.)
He tries again
>>92974Best to be on safe side. Like before, Silver lifts his mask just long enough to down a potion of Hide From Undead, satisfied that it will renew the effect.
>>92971"Ich bin nicht sicher, wie lange wir in diesem Zug sein werden, aber wir können später noch ein paar andere Dinge ausprobieren. Es gibt wirklich nicht mehr viel zu sehen. Sollen wir uns noch einmal in den Raum wagen, oder möchten wir lieber zurückgehen und etwas betrachten, das wir vorher angesehen haben?"
>>92970"Well, on which subject?
Them Or Griffons? Because I Think the Griffons Could Potentially Be Reformed. Them on the other Hoof. We Simply Cannot live on the Same World as them. as their actions have shown.if it comes down to being us or them to have to go,i choose them."
>>92978"Well, that answers my follow up question"
>>92977Wesley: "Gab es nicht zwei andere Ponys mit dir?"
>>92976Silver should recognize by now that these hallways are roamed by undead. They do not see him, but they do hear him, and see his flashlight
>>92975That pussy is grabbed.
There is a wagon - not a powered truck, just a wagon parked in an alley, with a door open, and a set of cage-bars
>>92979"Ja, es gibt zwei Ponys, die mit uns reisen. Sie haben eine separate Kabine und entschieden sich, uns nicht zu begleiten, um den Zug zu erkunden, aber sie sind hier irgendwo."
All this pussy grabbing, you'd think Trump was here >>92981"Aha. Sie sagen, wir werden Hilfe vom Bienenstock bekommen?"
>>92980"What should be done about the respective races"
>>92979>they do hear himSo, did the zeeb brew a faulty potion, or have you decided that it's different from what the wiki says?They haven't attacked him yet, and they didn't attack him or Star yesterday. Silver doesn't
think they'll give him any trouble, at least. He continues down this hallway to see where else it leads. He wants to be sure he gets everything.
>>92982"Sie haben dir das erzählt? Bist du sicher? Ich hatte ihnen den Plan noch nicht erzählt."
>>92983I haven't looked at the wiki, honestly. Silver is clinging a lot of glass, which is more than just foot steps or gas-mask breathingJust as on the other side, there are two doors to the right, and a hallway to the left
>>92984"Ich dachte, das hast du gesagt ..."
>>92985That makes sense, actually. Carry on.Silver heads into the first door on the right.
>>92979Yeh. I finally get some pussy finally! Iron's epic quest is over!Iron walks over to the wagon and climbs it, looking for the supposed cage.
"Now where is the cage here?"
>>92982"Send the ziggers back to Zebrica. Drive the Diamond Dogs Underground. The Griffons can stay subject-gated.and take the dragon's little island."
>>92986"Und das stimmt, ich hatte gerade nicht erwähnt, dass wir noch zum Stock gehen würden. Sie wissen, dass wir Hilfe bekommen werden."
I apologize, something must have gone wonky with the translation, it spit out "They said you were going to get help...."
I should have double-checked it
>>92987It looks as if it is another library, sort of like the one on the other side, although perhaps with fewer total books.
>>92988If the dream changeling had stayed around longer>>92988It appears as if it is supposed to be chained in the back, with a door inside closed. Like a wagon to carry around criminals
>>92989She smiles in her devious way
"Oh that last part has already been accomplished"
>>92990"Die anderen beiden wissen nicht, wohin Sie wollen?"
>>92991"It Got taken? i haden't heard about that. when was it taken?"
>>92991"Nicht genau, nein. Mach dir keine Sorgen, das gehört auch zu meinem Plan"
>>92992"Why, at the conclusion of the Equestrian War. Or rather, after it. Since it was such a strategic location."
>>92993"Wer sind sie für dich?"
>>92991Truly a sad day when dream changeling just gave him a boner to be wanked off later. Even the sucking doesn't cut it.Iron, nodding at the simplicity of the design, simply places the tiger near the back and chains it there. After this, he walks out of the wagon and tries to close and lock it.
(Well, that is a job well done if I do say so myself. Maybe the mare has something to help me with these cuts.)
He walks back inside the building and gently knocks on the door where the counter is to call for her attention.
>>92994"Send the Dragons to the Dread Leauge."
>>92994"Verbündete in dem Sinne, dass wir zusammengearbeitet haben, und sie haben bewiesen, dass man ihnen vertrauen kann. Sie haben von Ihnen beiden gewusst und ihren Mund geschlossen, und das allein ist heutzutage eine Seltenheit."
Replies to the next post to go in the new thread
>>92995I really feel like making placing the tiger in the cage more difficultShe looks through, her eyes are wide and her ears perk up
>>92996"I don't know if I want to give the necromancers dragons"
>>92997Kerr looks at Brie
"Wer bist du genau?"
Then he blinks
>>92999"Ich heiße Brie Achtzig Sechs und habe vor, die U-Bahn von Baltimare zu regieren." Brie says with more than a hint of a smile.
