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.

"Yes, those ones. They are more liberal than most in the area, and suppose themselves to have a right to rule over the entire drainage basin as if it were their own personal property. With Equestria gone, they think of themselves as the 'leaders of the Harmonic world.' As for Wittenland... a bunch of Unicorns prancing around in their high castles wasting their time on wine and parties."

You could just, you know, roleplay diplomacy, rather than treating it like it's a form of mind control

"Please allow me"
Trim fit pulls out a measuring tape, and starts to take measurements of Brie's neck, shoulders, waists, chest, wings, and so forth, all in a rather invasive way.
Next comes the little foals. Wesley stands still enough for it, although he looks as Trim fit with a wierd, predatory glare, until Kerr boops him into stopping. Kerr stands for it, but not without squirming, being both annoyed and unnerved by the process
"The ballistic Nylon itself will help to keep much of the heat, and it will certainly appear thick. But we can prepare a version for even colder climates"

"From what I have heard, there are three rivers that meet in Rijekograd. Their names I think are..." Silver looks towards the ceiling while scratching his chin in thought, as he tries to remember what he's heard of the River Republic. "Griffking, Gold, and...Green? And these rivers I imagine run through many of their neighbors. So I can see why some would think as such, even if they do not have rightful claim to region. I have heard it is beautiful place, with lots of hills and forests beside its grand rivers. I have also heard Rijeka is almost like brother language to my native Cyrillic. It makes me wonder if Rijekograd and Jezergrad ponies originally came from Severyana, many millennia ago.
"Wittenland sounds like some of old aristocracy in Canterlot. Somehow, I do not feel I would have good time there."

"The Griffking is the main river. The Gold and the Green are it's most easterly tributaries. It is a hilly area, yes, and mostly forested where there are not farms. It's not as beautiful as the green mountains and mountaintop cities of Nimbusia, though. I guess it is possible that there is some relation in the lettering. They say the ponies of the East came from the far north of the Equestrian continent, originally... Does Wittenland not sound 'exciting' enough for you?"

"Well, for instance, 'Rijekograd' comes from Rijeka words for 'River City', literally 'rijeka' and 'grad'. Cyrillic translation for these words are 'река' and 'город', but if I were to use Ponish characters, it would look like..." He grabs a simple pen from his saddlebags, and uses it to write on a napkin provided by the diner. In particular, he writes down 'reka' and 'gorod'. "...do you see resemblance?"

Well, no, but said skill is easily one of the more valuable skills for PCs concerned with anything but killing everything in sight. NPCs with opposing motives, intents, or alignments may be difficult to convince in ways that can't really be explained other than how eloquently the character words his/her speech. Also, I suck at this kind of stuff irl, but my character shouldn't.
Diplomacy doesn't necessarily make NPCs do whatever you tell them to, but it does improve their dispositions and attitudes.

To Silver, it sounds a little bit like the situation in Severyana, if you replaced 'mountainous' with 'frozen'. "But here is question: for how long can crops be grown in Nimbusia?"

“We Pegasi built our cities on the hilltops, above the valleys of the east. We were not so wealthy, nor so industrial. Our roofs tended to be thatched, but our temples were made of fine stone columns with elegant and ancient friezes depicting the glory of past battles and of the settlement. Life was very communal, and emphasized relationships with other Pegasi. I guess it has that in common with Equestria. The state-run Education emphasized physical combat, but many of the wealthy purchases tutors to teach rhetoric and public speaking. We would often meet in the amphitheaters of the larger cities, where the citizenry would hear and vote on proposals for public matters, or watch plays. The markets, likewise, were big communal areas. And the temples to the gods tended to be the grandest in the cities. Soaring over the valleys, or the long coast lines, the hills were covered in grass or olive groves. It was beautiful...”

“Sounds about like typical. An invading foreign power replaces the world views, customs and cultures of the natives with a philosophy that places the new rulers at the center of order., In time, the natives cannot even think of their world without its rulers and their own subjugation as an undispensable part of their existence. So died the native religions of the Equestrian continent at the hooves, wings, and horns of alicorns rule.”

“Well, I’ve never been to Severyana. I think you said they burned churches. That didn’t happen in Nimbusia. It was a much quieter revolution”

'Sounds a little bit like New Mareland' is what a small part of him wants to say. However, he decides to scale it back to a much more reasonable: "I am not sure if Celestia ever actually sponsored worship of herself. You certainly got idea from listening to how she acted that she was not very fond of that idea, and it was just her ponies acting independently.
"As for Nimbusia...well, as far as I know, it was not Communist revolution that took your country over."

And they are indeed swank. Black, though not quite a solid black, as if dotted with grey. Appropriate white shirts several varieties of bow ties come as accessories. The suits are rather thick, and aren't as light or as breathable as they could be. But given that they are designed to give some measure of protection against Anti-Aircraft Artillery, that's kind of to be expected

Spooky.
A suggestion could be for you to comply while Iron tries to stay inside long enought to buy the foal from him. However, separation is super risky and may cause negative effects later. When you're ready to cast, just do so.
Remember we have Spark as a meat shield at least.

Still staring Willowbrooks in the eye, Sister Ash does not flinch at the site of the two new arrivals, either unintimidated by them or too distracted by her moral tirade to care. If one looked closely, they might notice the slightest bit of steam rising off of her clothes.
Her eyes seem to peirce into the stallion judgmentally, before she nods her head subtly as if making an decision, flicking her now unshawled ear back to reveal a small, glittering rosary of holy and mistletoe behind it in her mane.
After a brief moment's silence that feels like a week **(pun intended...)**, she speaks.
"... I don't think you understand.. Why don't I show you!"
She casts 'Vision Of Punishment'.
The last words almost seem to resonate as the verbal component to a spell, and for a moment Willowbrook finds himself not in his chair: Not here, not now, but somewhere horrible in the future.
His body is pressed into the earth, all four of his limbs having rotten off into oozing sores, his carcass strewn about the ground like a maggot, flesh boiling. All around him he can see volcanic phumes spewing out of cracks in the searing hot volcanic rock.
*SNAP*
Searing pain jolts into his back as a voice shouts at him from behind in a language he does not understand, but nevertheless, his desecrated body inches forward mindlessly like a caterpillar, it's flesh boiling and stripping off as it scrapes against the superheated earth. Thousands of other maggots crawls alongside him down into a vast and dark crater in the the rock, all the while beling kicked, lashed-at and impaled by dark figures too tall to see, cackling in the same untintelligible language. At last, his body makes it to the center of the crater, and without further command, drops into the darkness below.
After falling for what feels like an eternity, he realizes the true nature of his nightmare: he's not in Equestria anymore; he's in Tartarus.
The vision feels like a thousand years, but it only lasts a few seconds before he returns to the present in cold sweat.
This isn't an illusion or enchantment spell, but a divination spell: there is no will save to disbelieve, because it's an actual reflection of what punishment awaits his life without the salvation of a deity.
He gets a 15 DC Will save to avoid vomiting, otherwise he'll just be sickened for two rounds as his mind recovers from the trauma.
Sister Ash's legs visibly tremble as the sacrifice component of the drastic spell deals 1d3 strength damage to her body.

I'm not sure that's what the Equestrian afterlife looks like, but okay
Willowbrooks sits in his seat, a look of pain and fear across it. He digs his hooves down into his chair before him, as his rear legs tremble
The other two, however, are not happy. They reveal from behind the doorway that they are indeed holding big guns.
"What the fuck did you just do to him you witch?"
A pony always has the option to disbelieve a vision as either a hallucination, or a lie from evil magic

In d&d, it's not a clear dichotomy, but your petition in the afterlife is reflective of your alignment upon death, unless you have prior arrangements with a deity. The outer planes are geographic manifestations of the moral aspects of the multiverse: souls are reincarnated as petitioners in planes that correspond to their alignment, if gods don't do something with their souls first. That's why evil characters worship evil gods: for salvation from an otherwise horrific fate. There are planesthesia for every alignment, but most of the non-good planes aren't very fun to end up in.
I think it's actually closer to the Norse or ancient Greek model, but quite a few (almost all) religions have a model in which souls are judged in the afterlife by how they lived their lives. Hell is not a concept that originated in catholicism.
The scene i described was something between hell and hades, as i figured Tartarus to be something similar; since I guessed that this guy spent most of his life helping himself at the cost of others, so if he were more evil than good he'did end up as a larvae or lemure and work as a slave for fiends for all eternity, or until he were destroyed. Unless, of course, he turned his life around and trI'd to become a good poner, or at the very least a neutral individual.
Anyway, this is the reason why Sister Ash sees evil creatures and creatures that live depraved lives as "pitiful", and why she took a Vow never to take a life, since letting evil creatures live gives them a chance for redemption and exaltation.
She looks up, with an ominously calm expression.
"I showed him his future, how he'does be judged for his life until this point."

There's something very different about this demand. It isn't rooted in anger and indignation, as before, but out of fear. More like a desperate plea, really, than a demand. The mooks, however, are more responsive to Ash than to Willbrooks, for once

"I'm not a Celestian myself, that's the vehicle of the ponies, but I still know five or six things about the divine.."
She glances back towards Willowbrooks

It is not hard to extend it to all foals, once you understand exactly how precious having foals of your own is."
