Occupied Equestria - Day 6?

Set six years after season 6, Occupied Equestria presents an alternative history where the Changelings have conquered half of Equestria, while a former Equestrian colony - soured to Princess Twilight's notion of harmony with all creatures because of their encounters 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.

For those on the train. The train goes along at high speeds through the darkness past farmland, trees, and other trains... until it starts to slow down, and comes to a halt.

Silver breathes in deeply of her scent before beginning to lick and eat out her insides. He keeps his muzzle in constant contact with her walls, rubbing it up and along the sides. His Sword reaches the back of Skies throat, where she can continue to feel it twitch slightly.

She continues, bobbing up and down on him, harder, faster and stronger, licking and sucking. Fluid continues to slowly ooze out of her vagina, both hers and Silver's

Oh, she's bringing him to a stopping point alright

A large spurt of pre going down her throat and a more rapid, intense twitching and quivering of his cock signals that he's getting closer, even if he's not quite at the edge yet. Silver moans into Skies' tunnel of love, and like the good trooper he is he continues to provide Skies with the highest quality cunnilingus he can.

You got that right.

She gives a sort of giggle, heavily muffled by the object in her mouth, as she continues going at him. Intensely, more intensely. Her wings spread out down to the floor.

She continues winking until she clenches shut, and more fluid comes out in evident orgasm. As she does so, she give one last, long suck

It's more than enough to push Silver over the edge. He moans into the bear trap also known as Skies' pussy, with his face tightly clamped into its current position as she plasters him with fluids. Meanwhile, he thrusts into Skies' mouth. His cock flares up as he reaches orgasm, cum hitting the back of her throat and going down her gullet.

Interestingly, Silver's horn flares up, magic sparks coming off of the protrusion and disappearing with little pops like fireworks.

She pulls her mouth back a little, sucks off, and swallows, before pulling a bit more and licking off more. This continues as long as necessary. With that, she claims the last of his magical sex energy reserves.

Silver is well and truly spent, by the end of it. His Sword quickly shrinks back into its sheath, sore yet satisfied. His balls, having been drained of damn near all the semen they had to give, similarly shrink back into the fuzzy sack they call their home. Finally, he pulls his head out from Skies' pussy, trails of vaginal secretions keeping the two connected. He slumps back into the couch, breathes heavily, and gives Blue a tired look, as he manages to get only one word out: "...Satisfied?"

He quietly laughs, lacking the energy for anything more. "You are not so bad yourself, Blue Skies. You have undeniable control over your body, and you certainly make for amazing orator." He wraps his forelegs around her in an embrace. "I think I will take night-long cuddle session on bed, if that is still available option. There is little better than post-coital cuddles."

This is a question he would need to ask himself. In fact, he does exactly that. "...Well, I suppose that is question. If we both go see him, our words will carry more weight. But there is chance my presence might anger him." Silver finishes getting up (or rolling, in this case) off the couch. He rubs the back of his neck some more in thought. "If you decide to go see him, I will go with you, I think. I want to be there to provide support for you. Otherwise, we can just head up to your room, cuddle up together, and sleep."

Iron inspects the river obstacle, placing a hoof inside the water to see how deep it is and how strong is the tide to see if it can be swimmable.
He looks around for any sort of shallow enough water to simply cross by.

I concede it's partly that, but she's still not a great waifu. Not even a decent one, unless you're one of those types that only wants sex with no strings attached.
It's all about what she has to offer for me. What can she do? Throw knives, shoot guns, be sneaky, be a good liar and get easily persuaded to be fucked by anyone who has a deep enough sob story. That's it. Do you want to stay with that kind of mare in the long run? Nevermind the fact that she smokes and has a very poor relationship with his relatives aside from her mother, both big red warning signs she's a bad choice to waifu due to possible emotional instability.
Granted, her character is not fully explored yet. Maybe there's a facet of her that'll make me have an improved opinion of her from only neutral. For now, she only is a trouble magnet that stallions should try to avoid.

Are you seriously going to hold the smoking against her? I was unsure about giving her that trait in the first place. It was supposed to be a way of showing stress release and “I’ve had enough of this bullshit.” This is a 1940 setting, back when smoking was widely accepted and the dangers unknown.

She’s a police officer basically, sometimes and undercover agent and sometimes a detective. She’s employed. Whatelse do you need?

Even in the 1940, smoke smells bad, made your breath stink and your voice gravelly, so it's still unpleasant without all the adverse health effects known. It makes sense, but that doesn't mean I'm supposed to like it.
As for what I need from Skies? You're the one to decide her fate. I'm pointing out there's a lot of flaws she has without many pros to begin with, therefore making her not a great option to waifu.

Why would that change anything? It doesn't get rid of the bad smell they make from being smoked. Besides, I can bet at least half of smokers do smoke at first due to peer pressure then got hooked to the nicotine.
I only care that she smokes to begin with. No matter the justification, it ruins some of the physical appeal by intentionally worsening your breath.
You're not going to make Cauldron a smoker just because of this, right?

Skies is not intended to be a great waifu, or really, a waifu at all. She’s not even intended to be likeable. All of my NPCs - Skies, Cauldron, Marery, Kerr etc. are intended to be representations of a part of the world and a reflection of the environment. That’s all the NPCs are. They are extensions of the world building. They are usually symbols of something or synecdoches of something bigger.

Skies role in the world building is that she - uniquely - is a refugee, created by cultural and political upheaval abroad. That has affected her personality and made her jaded while motivating her connection with the blackhooves. The fact that she is a foreigner is intended to be a representation of how the blackhooves are having difficulty recruiting from the native population of Baltimare because they are not popular.
Skies is a refugee, and a reactionary. Her existence is proof that The world is in chaos and The Blackhooves are not popular in Baltimare

Black Cauldron is intended to be somewhat normal. But in particular, she is intended to be working class. Most especially she works as a criminal while having a workable talent in alchemy. She is thus a representation of the poverty and underprivilege of the working class of Baltimare, to show that the industrialized economy is actually doing a poor job of providing opportunities for the population. She doesn’t even want to be a criminal that much, but she does it because she has limited other options. It shows that the Waterfront gang is taking advantage of the underprivileged by providing some means for advancement in an otherwise ossified social order. She has vaguely leftist political beliefs for obvious reasons, and generally doesn’t care much for politics. She is also a second generation immigrant, and thus has a dual identity, trying to hold onto her older culture, but also is fairly well assimilated into the culture of Baltimare. Her family life is reflective of the conservative cultures of African and Islamic nations.
Cauldron is under privileged, working class, and has a dual cultural identity. Her place in the Waterfront gang is to show The Waterfront gang is exploiting poverty for its recruitment

Kerr and Wesley are intended to be representations of the average Changeling of the Changeling hegemony in adolescence. They behave in many ways like normal people to give a “human” element to the enemy always chaotic evil race. Their behavior is intended to be a reflection of peculiar Changeling biology, their terrible experience with ponies, and the indoctrination the hegemony places upon them. Their ideology is basically that the parasitic nature of changelings means that changelings must either eventually raise ponies like cattle, or be exterminated from the planet. A sort of “great struggle.” It’s basically the mirror reflection of Dark Star’s beliefs about changelings. They don’t question these beliefs even as they have friendly relations with ponies, because it’s the culture they grew up in. Their status as sec slaves was supposed to show that Comte’s pedophila was so incredibly exploitative and evil that the one creature on the planet that ought to be okay with that, isn’t.
Kerr and Wesley are Human, Vampires, and prejudiced against ponies. Their purpose in the larger world is to show that The Changeling Hegemony indoctrinates its citizens at an early age with a Changeling supremicist ideology and that Comte’s Pedophile ring is so evil that even a Succubus would hate it.

I could do this with so many more NPCs. Abby Willows, who barely showed up, could take up another paragraph. And I could do the same for Marery, Father Maren, Seabreeze, Comte, Curwhinny, and so forth. This is besides the things I have left unsaid because of spoilers.

My NPCs are not “waifus.” They are not pets or possessions to be taken for the player characters. This is not the Doki Doki literature club.

When I create NPCs, I do not think “this character would be super cool” or “this character would be top waifu material.” Because none of the characters are intended to be. When I create an NPC, I think “what kind of person would be created by this kind of environment and set of life experiences,” or “what information about the world do I want to convey with this character?” That’s what characters are. A part of the world building.

I get it. The characters in question serve to reflect a socioeconomical or simply social viewpoint apart than be individual ponies with their own hobbies and problems. This is why I only voice the flaws without really telling you to do something about them, because the world you create is yours to mold as you see fit. If you want to create a pony whose poverty and poor labor conditions lead him to become a communist ludite, that is acceptable too. He/she can be a bitter alcoholic and lost his brother in a factory accident, which the employer didn't compensate for, fueling his/her resentment and wanting nothing but revenge and justice.
However, do not mistake me waifuing characters as merely seeing them as 'pets.' They are big motivators and can easily sway the PC I use through said NPCs to do your planned quests and missions, especially if it benefits the waifu in question and himself. It's not that she becomes a simple-minded pet that gets jammed a piece of meat by le epic large dong poner, it's a sincere desire to improve the situation of the waifu and spend time together while doing so because the PC likes the personality, whether it was planned to or not.
Cauldron's hidden plea to practice her talents rather than fight and extort is quite a touching one to the point where I, the player, want to improve said pony's situation in any way I can. That is why I made Iron volunteer himself to help out with her flower picking at the jungle to boost her botany research. So that she can have an actual job to support herself and her family apart from the family restaurant. Do you consider helping out Cauldron with her botany research and eventually reaching a professional level with Iron's help treating her as a mere pet? I most definitely think not. Stating advantages and disadvantages in hooking up with people is a must in order to establish good relationships, from the 'waifu' veil to simple business relationships.

Nothing special, really. He's simply talking about his use of NPCs after a bit of poking at Skies' flaws.

This is still bothering me. The smoking scene was originally planned as a very different scene with very different implications where the smoking was only a secondary feature. What we got a bastardized version that I felt locked to put in after dice rolls for the sleight of hand.

POOF using my magical GM powers of -the-universe-is-whatever-the-fuck-I-want-it-to-be she is not a smoker. If she smiled in one scene it is literally the only time ever and because she had an extremely stressful experience she wanted to calm down from. Just try to prove she’s a regular smoker. Oh wait, you can’t, because there is no fucking evidence anywhere at al in the rest of the narrative that she’s a smoker. Is that better?

Have you ever seen a pair of scissors that was mostly plastered with rounded ends and basically useless for cutting paper and thought “who was the one child so mentally deficienct as to cut themselves with basic scissors, and force so manny of the rest of us to have use these worthless pieces of shit?” Or in the alternative, have you ever watched a movie, and saw some joke omitted, some plot point changed, or some other part of the writing toned down, removed or changed for the worse of the whole literary project and wondered what tiny group of shrieking housewives or petualant children on twitter bitched and complained about sone detail they didn’t like, forcing the writers or producers to change the whole product into some less well written version that deviates from the writer’s actual vision? That is what you may consider it. A flawed section of writing that is such because sone mentally deficient, petulant child threw a temper tantrum because some detail didn’t perfectly align with their personal preferences, so now the whole plot and everyone has to suffer.

You don't really have to take away and add stuff because I don't like it. If you did, Skies would be a completely different character. If you want her to smoke, do so. It's not going to seriously impact the dynamic between Iron and Skies aside from a little comment about bad breath if you ever so choose to leave the smoke breath to be spotted by Iron.
I think I get why you're doing this: You want Iron and Skies to get along in the very long run as she's linked to two other PCs. Am I wrong to assume that?

Silver’s had quite a long and eventful day today.

He found that the two insects he rescued the previous day, whom he seemed to want to take as surrogate foals, had been taken from him. He didn’t get to say goodbye...

But there was a bright spot to it. A shining bright spot. After years of crippling loneliness, he found a pony. A pony who made his heart flutter. Whom he could pour his love upon. Unfortunately, Dark Star did not feel the same way about SIlver, and rejected Silver’s advances. Poor Silver.

His interactions with Skies at least have gone better, despite leaving her angry twice. She still takes a sadistic pleasure in outmaneuver he him in arguments, and she still likes physical contact but not on the snout.

He also was nearly killed by a lake ghoul, spent almost all of his remaining money, maybe got a mare pregnant, and affiliated as many me too and incidents in a day as many politicians do in half a lifetime.

Quite a day

Oh yes. Silver also tasted part of a pony’s soul. Turns out they are almost repulsively sweet at first, but then give you an incredible euphoria.

Since we’re in limbo again...

Wanna talk about what you want out of the next day in the game?

Wanna talk about Equestria at war?

Wanna talk about Changelings or whatever story meta?

I'm rather fond of Cauldron and I want to help her out on making herself a professional botanist. I also want the simple desire to win money by doing strength based stuff. What we were doing back at the jungle is a nice direction to flow towards.
Aside from that, maybe we can delve a bit deeper on gang-related activities to increase money flow to fuel the current main objective like doing some sort of kidnapping, maybe, since he's specialized at non-lethal combat.

As for EaW, what would be the easiest country to start with for a newbie?

Story meta wise, who was supposed to be the BBEG we're supposed to face? Commies, changelings, a mix of the two? Were we meant to go full Black Hooves at the start after the job? Can changelings simply ingest love when being directly loved to without sucking the hosts' and if not, could there be a way to do that given enough trial and error research?
Would changelings submit easily to ponies for love to the point of low-key slavery if taught that that's how they're supposed to coexist with the other species?

For the next day, I'm hoping I can actually finish this job for Blue. He's got two more potions worth of runs he can make with the money he has, so I'm hoping he can clear out the library in the amount of time they'll give him. Fingers (and hooves) crossed that Blue gives him a little bonus for clearing the library since it actually wasn't part of their agreement. That, and also since this entire deal with the catacombs has been a money sink if I've ever seen one.

After that, I have no idea. Maybe I'll have him join the Black Hooves, maybe I'll have him think on it while he looks around town for any jobs/different factions to join, maybe I'll have him decide to find what he can about where his children are.

New Mareland seems to be a good choice to start out with. They've got plenty of different paths to go down, and you've got a few years to prepare until Wingbardy finishes the "Demand New Mareland" Focus.

Wingbardy will normally leave you alone, I've found, if you stay with Equestria, but you'll be trapped as a dominion for a while and you'll be stuck helping Equestria in the Great War. As a bonus, though, you gain access to a kickass Air Design company and an alternate Armor Design company, and some other neat bonuses. The Black Hooves offer the easiest of the Independence paths, I've found, with the MARESOC Communists close behind.

Got a meta question, even if it's not about the story. You said you don't want to explain how SMGs work for balance reasons, and it's sorta implied you don't want the PCs to be using them just yet. Will there come a point in the game when you'll be fine with one of us wielding an SMG?

Did you see how many dice you have to roll to use them, both to hit and damage? That kind of damage could end any enemies' existence in a heartbeat.
Not sure if it would be so great against ghasts tho, unless the armor value is lowered to 15 or something.

This may sound kind of strange, but I didn’t precisely intend an antagonist so much as made the world, then you decide what to do with it, although some like Comte, Curwhinny, Abdul the Hegemony are kind of obvious villains

>changelings
Not hard to answer, but I feel like these are easy to find out in the world, at least for the not-iron characters

>>97929
Well yes, an SMG is appropriate when there are a very large number of enemies that would be almost impossible with anything that isnt a fucking submachine gun, and having that much power would be kind of like a power fantasy.

Do you think it’s just a coincidence that of the three sub machines in the story, one came right before fighting communists on the docks, and the other two were positioned respectively at the front and rear entrances of the catacombs?

Alright, so if Silver found a way to get the Bits Gun fixed up, cleaned up, and got ammo for it, would you allow its use in clearing the catacombs?

I’m a little sad the catacombs quest turned into tediousness

Perhaps

It’s a damned Owen’s gun. It makes the AK47 look unreliable and unable to cope with harsh environments by comparison

Dangit, this only fuels my want to be napped by them in order to get to know them better.
This might sound strange, but will there ever chance arise where I can have two mare love interests being followed at once? I kinda wanted to go with that sort of tribalist tradition of the alpha male or stallion could have more than one female as it's portrayed sometimes, but I can understand being a hard no because monogamy is something that's mostly respected. I'm asking in both a self-fulfillment way and a way to have another NPC class that could be focused on magic attacks to add that firepower Ash had with Iron at most times. Not sure from what faction she could be though and I am fully expecting jealousy to arise and I'll have to juggle giving attention to two mares' problems and wants, but I think I can manage that.
I think, not sure.

But the real answer is that women are okay with polygamy really only when the man is of high social standing. So basically Iron needs to really be someone in order for women to find him that attractive. Or maybe he can just find really low class women with low standards. Also they can't be super conservative either

Either become filthy rich or fish for poor ponies. That's a way to do it. However, it seems you're implying they'll sleep around with other ponies, right?

>tediousness
There's just a lot of enemies that even at our peak strength we would have problems with, and with little in the way of a promised reward or levelling prospects for doing so. I suppose some would call that tedious, but I can't say much either way as I have no idea how you were hoping we would do this. I really hope you'll allow it, because I see no other way we can finish this job without spending 4,000 Bits on potions. You make it sound like there's a dozen or more ghasts left, plus whatever lake ghasts are left, plus whatever else we haven't yet encountered.
