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.
The long train ride from Baltimare to Bales has been interrupted by a group of partisan fighters, claiming to be looking for none other than Pinkie Pie, who has been kept prisoner since the end of the war. They don't seem to have found their prize, but they do seem to have found a very pissed off Brie, Onyx, and Spark, as well as another Bat Pony, and both groups have been interrupted by a new set of intruders. In Baltimare, Silver, Dark Star, and Iron await a new and uncertain dawn.

>>99771“Yes, we do.”
>>99772“Nothing you haven’t already seen and felt.”
>>99765>>99766Dark Star will be Silver's one day. It's only a matter of time.
>>99773Silver smiles at the waiter. "I will take some Wheaties if you do not mind."
>>99774Skies holds on to Star tighter
“Alright, two orders of wheaties.”
>>99773Iron nods.
"This time I will not be surprised by the cheating these ponies brandishing their cheating weapons. Let us walk the trail, then."
With that, he starts the trek towards the rest of the camp with Pear and Cauldron in tow.
>>99775>>99777As the waiter (presumably) leaves the table, Silver looks back to Star and Skies. "You have not answered my question, though."
>>99776More traversing through a path that clearly looks like it’s been widened by ponies somewhat recently through deeper forest, and past a small stream to the hillside. Trees do not grow so thickly not so tall through it, and there is more brush covering this part.
Pear: “right through this area”
Cauldron: “looks like we will need to do sone clearing ourselves.”
She pulls a machete out of a holder, and grasping at it with her mouth, starts hacking at brush
>>99778“He’s pretty helpful with mane and coat care.”
>>99780Iron nods.
"Try to cut in short strokes. We will definitely need the brush to act as cover when we reach the camp itself for scouting purposes."
(While I could cut it with my teeth, I feel lime Cauldron could find some useful plants to brew more potions when she hacks.)
>>99780"Yep. Coat care is important."
>>99781"I Lathered her up well."
>>99781“What do you want to know?”
>>99782“You think it will be well guarded?”
>>99784"I just wanted to know how he was."
>>99785“Pretty good. What he lacks in experience, he makes up for in youthful energy.”
>>99784"Maybe, but I cannot risk any more surprises, even with the gods giving us their grace."
>>99785"Why Do you want to know? That's weird."
>>99786"I could imagine that. Sounds like he was enough to satisfy you."
>>99788Silver shrugs. "I do not know. I just heard you through bathroom door, and it sounded like you were enjoying your time. Wanted to know how it was for other pony involved, I suppose."
>>99789"Why were you listening in the first place?"
>>99790Skies pets the upset pony
>>99789She shrugs
>>99790Silver gives him a deadpan look. "You woke me up with your moans. I do not think I had much choice in matter."
>>99787“What do you know of the gods?” Asks Pear
>>99794Iron opens his mouth, then ponders for a bit.
"There are many, mostly representing things like the Sun, Moon, rain, life, death and other concepts. I did not pay much attention to the elders so I am missing a lot of information about them."
>>99791>>99797Moving on...
"What were your plans for today?"
>>99798"I Gotta Check in at the Orphanage, then I'm Gonna see if Sea Breeze has any Jobs for me."
>>99796Iron glances to the side, remembering her disdain for money-oriented pursuits.
"I was thinking on getting something to boost my renown. Taking out a big group of bandits in order to help somepony in need does that, right?"
(Do not say money or she will not be as cooperative.)
>>99799"That is...actually rather nice of you, to keep thinking of them. Those foals we rescued, are they doing alright?"
>>99801"they are...Doing rather well,given the circumstances. i was actually thinking about Adopting them."
>>99802"That is admirable, but do you think you would be ready? It is lot of work, raising foals. Especially on your own. You need stable home and steady source of income. And with what they've been through..."
>>99803"Yea i think i am Ready.I'm Employed with the Black Hoofs, and i have a room rented at the Tavern."
>>99800“Right... well, let’s go, and don’t get shot. Again.”
>>99804Silver gives him a soft but unsure look. "You probably need something more in terms of housing. Something with in-house kitchen and bathroom."
>>99805"I shall try to do that."
He feels she could read his intentions.
(Hopefully she does not mind we will take most of the weapons.)
Speaking of, can he go back to pick that big gun after finishing off the bandits or was it destroyed by the bolt? >>99806"Yeah, I've been thinking about that too."
>>99805He Turns to Blue
"How can i get one of the rooms at the hotel?"
>>99804>>99806“I know family law in the Metropolitan, and in Manehattan now don’t allow single males to adopt children. Maybe this district is more liberal, I don’t know.”
>>99808“Ask Seabreeze, Maybe.”
>>99807You mean the peach mare’s gun? It’s an identical model to what Cauldron has
>>99809Wait, seriously? Since when she has that gun? Nevermind. I still want all those weapons for selling later.If this becomes real or at least rewards me for my dream actions.Iron walks on, slightly bothered about the possibility of more mare punching.
>>99810You looted the first set of bandits and took their guns.
>>99811I know that, but I think I didn't loot this new set of bandits. I took 3 SMGs and two rifles so far and Iron
could take more.
>>99808"Well, if you do, and you ever need help, do not be afraid to ask me, alright?"
I'll be right back. Dinner. >>99809"Ah well thats a shame.... I Hope they can find a good home then"
Dark Star looks saddend to hear he cant adopt them and keep them safe
>>99814She pets him
“Maybe they’ll let you.”
>>99812The hell are you going to do with 4 SMGs?
>>99815"It Makes sense why they wouldn't though."
Dark Star Has a Gloomy look on his face.
>>99819"Oh, do not look so gloomy. You never know until you ask, and it is not as if it would hurt to do so."
>>99819She pets the sad pony
“They’ll let them stay with foster families sometimes for extended periods without formal adoption.”
>>99820>>99821He smiles a little
"Hopefully it can happen."
