You didn't leave anything behind to loot
>>84388
It swings open, revealing another large room.
This one's much more dimly lit.
The party steps on an unsteady wooden platform over what seems like nothing.
In the middle of a room is a very narrow pathway through to the other side.
On this walkway stands a shadow.
"Are you ready to meet my acrobat?"

In the middle of a room is a very narrow pathway through to the other side.
On this walkway stands a shadow.
"Are you ready to meet my acrobat?"
>>84412
The shadow takes to the air and deftly avoids your shot.
>>84403
>>84400
Just as he's about to lunge at Aurelia, Card's shot manages to graze him, making him drop on the path.
He quickly recovers however.
He pulls out a pistol of his own.
"You might want to step off that wonky thing."
He then points his pistol below the wooden platform and destroys the support holding it up, leaving only his narrow trapeze-like walkway on the air.
"Don't worry about falling down though, you'll only land in the cells in the castle's dungeon."
If he manages to drop you down, you'll be dropped into the castle's dungeons and will have to find your own way out.
The walkway is so narrow that only one pony can combat the acrobat at a time; Pegasi are inherently agile and as such can suffer two critical fails before falling down. Others will fall down should they be rendered helpless at all.

>>84434
ALI is in the front of the line as she draws her pistols and lets out a punishing salvo of hot lead.
The acrobat quite easily takes to the air again, dodging most of the fire, suffering but one hit in the process.
He doesn't seem very daunted by the wound on his shoulder.
>>84433
>>84431
That's a +2 for everyone.
>>84432
You whip the Pegasus's back, making him plummet into the darkness.
He soon rises from the depths again however.
>>84435
You struggle with your magic, and the acrobat dives against you. His chosen weapon are spiked horseshoes.
He pummels you on the side, making you stagger and fall to the ground, clutching the narrow walkway.

>>84448
You manage to heal the bruises caused by the pegasus.
>>84451
As he swoops bast you graze him with your mace, but fail to do any considerable damage.
>>84462
Nah.
You don't.
>>84457
As you keep firing, one of the bullets explodes inside the gun, rendering it a piece of scrap metal. Your paw is burned and you stagger.
For a moment it looks like you regained your balance, but the pegasus swoops at you from the side, making you fall into the darkness below.
You can try to soften the fall or grasp the walkway.
>>84464
After this, you bring your full force against the pegasus, forcing him to land on the walkway.
It seems he has a gaping wound on his side now.
It is very quickly healing, however.

+1 for everyone next turn
>>84470
You hit him, but he doesn't seem to mind, as he headbutts you instead, causing you to stagger
>>84472
You almost fall down yourself. Roll to regain your balance.
>>84473
You grab it good.
You even manage to use your momentum to swing yourself back up.
>>84476
He falls on his knee for a while, seemingly unable to take to the air.

You steady yourself on the ledge.

>>84486
You lunge at him, but he just somersaults out of the way.
>>84482
You fire twice, and he manages to dodge the first bullet, but the second hits the base of his wing, making him plummet.
You can hear a thump from down below.

>>84515
Your other shot ricochets into the darkness, but the other one hits something in the darkness, followed by a scream and a couple of thuds.
The pegasus staggers into the light, his right wing glistening with blood.
>>84517
You charge into him, pinning him against a wall.
You can see his face is very pale and skinny, his mane black.
>>84516
The walls to your sides and back are solid brick, but the front wall and door are barred.
>>84519
Yes. You're only a few cells apart.
An old voice from somewhere in the darkness calls out
"You ain't gettin' out lil' filly, no need to shout…"

"Just a petty thief. Burglar. Got thrown here more than a decade ago. Thought I'd die. Had to live on moss and rats for years! Even the frickin' vampires wouldn't let me out."
>>84525
You buck at it, but the rusty bars are stronger than you think.
>>84522
He hisses at you, and then you stab him.
You slowly drive your sword through his abdomen.
His eyes roll into the back of his head and his mouth drops open.
You let him go and he plummets down to the ground, dead.

>>84530
There's a door.
>>84531
The door budges. Looks like the bricks holding them in place are giving away.
>>84534
Never mind that, Neith flies down and blasts the whole wall to kingdom come.
>>84532
Your magic is violently bounced back to you.
"Of course they have cells that are unicorn proof, what did you think?"

>>84538
You find the cell easily, as the magic field is still shimmering.
>>84539
"Ye can call me Rusty, I guess."
>>84536
>>84537
It looks like a tower.
The room is round and tall, ascending into darkness above.
You can see many wooden cross bars going across the higher parts of the room.
Something's moving up there.
"Ready to meet the brawn…wait, where'd you leave all your friends?"

>>84557
"I can show you some secret butt fun if you go down there and bring your friends to me."
>>84558
It's got a dirty dirt floor and a bed resembling a slab of stone in it.
>>84560
You blast it good, so good in fact you cause the whole row of cells to crumble.
The field shatters and Aurelia is free to leave the cell.

"No one here. Occasionally they bring the vampire's cattle here, but it's been empty for a while now."
>>84570
"Well, okay, you need to go through my first lieutenant first. Let's start with that."
The shadow from up above descends on the floor.
It's the same huge bat you fought outside the castle.
>>84573
"Why thank you."

>>84606
You cause a huge ball of light fly out of your horn and explode on wall. Your horn is charred in the process.
Rusty just sits there
"What a light show!"
>>84607
You get into the room the others are in.
>>84608
Your shots miss.
>>84610
None of them come close as the bats form again into a huge, bulging earth pony.
"Oh, three mares? I'm having fun tonight!"
>>84611
"Didn't seem like no detection spell I've ever seen."

"'I'm not fucking a pony? We'll see!'"
He just sneezes at the sand.
>>84626
Your blast hits him squarely, making him shatter into small bats.
Many of them just stay on the ground, dead.
>>84628
You stab one of the small bats to death.
He reforms on top of one of the crossbars as a huge bat.
>>84621
"Ya do what ya gotta do."
He sticks out a bony hoof.

"There's stairs just on that end o' the hallway."
He points at stairs at the end of the hallway.
They lead up to a trap door.
>>84652
+2 to everyone.
>>84654
You stab him on the back of the neck, making him trash around wildly.
>>84655
You make a gaping wound on his chest, but it heals itself very fast.

He walks up the stairs and opens the trap door to the room everyone else is in.
"Well I'll be-"
He's then swung to the far end by the trashing bat.
>>84668
He swats your sword away. You wound it but not very badly.
>>84670
INSPIRATION IS OVER
>>84671
You ride the bat like a cowboy rides a bull.
Except you keep stabbing it.
Suddenly the bat throws itself back first on the ground.
Roll to get out of the way

You manage to get off just in the nick of time.
The dagger is still in his back though.
>>84679
You leave a large scorch mark on his side, and the creature recoils.
>>84684
The bat lands on one knee from your blow, but then it dissipates into dozens of bats again.
This time they fly all the way up to the roof, where you can't see him.
>>84685
you can't hit anything.

The bats plunge at you, taking a form of a giant black spear, striking you squarely on the chest thanks to Card's inspiring song.
Roll to see how bad you get damaged.
>>84705
You manage to interrupt their flight, and the Earth pony forms himself back on the ground.
You can see a large spear on his hoof.
>>84707
You hit a crossbar, which then drops on top of the pony.
If I roll a 4 or less he's helpless.

You yourself suffered no damage.
>>84718
He dodges your swing, instead bucking you in the side, hard.
>>84720
>>84721
You both manage to stab him.
He staggers a bit but otherwise seems fine.
>>84719
He has clambered up from under the bar, not caring for your first shot.
The second, however, hits him in the eye, making a gush of black blood fly out.
He tries to turn into bats again, but most of them only explode in a shower of gore, and he's forced to return to his normal form.
He's helpless, +1 to everyone's actions.

There's an Iron maiden and a table in the room.
>>84875
Seems like some sort of a rag storage.
>>84877
You find a door into what seems to be a long hallway.
>>84878
You find a door into the vampire's treasury. It's filled to the brim with gold, jewels, armour, weapons, scrolls, and everything.
The whole party is now stinking rich.
You can also search the place for items of use.
Weapons, armour, potions, etc.

There's a huge cannon on the side.
It's gilded but doesn't seem to have wheels.
You can try to drag it out if you like, but you only have one cannon ball.
>>84897
You find a good, lightweight shield.
>>84900
You find the best item you could have ever hoped for
Depending on what you wanted
Say a master-crafted staff with a bound fire storm spell on it
>>84906
You find a nice +1 sword among the piles of gold.

>>84983

the hallway is quite barren. Apart from a faded rug on the floor there's not much to see there.
On the other end is a gate guarded by a guard.

As you quickly duck under the gate, it suddenly stops, letting out a sudden, high-pitched screeching sound.
Then, with a thundering crash, the chains operating the gate snap, and the iron monstrosity comes tumbling down, leaving only a small gap, maybe able to fit a foal, on the gateway.
Some bricks have come loose on the surrounding wall.

>>92117
It's a another long corridor. There aren't many signs as to what it's purpose, except for a faded placate reading 'servants' pointing to the left. The corridor soon cuts a corner that way.
To the right you can see a window and a door.

A familiar band is playing, but this time their music is much more energetic.

You're hit head-on by a piece of red-hot iron bar. You have a large wound on your forehead. It's bleeding badly.
>>92151
One alcove has a skeleton in it. The doors lead to different kitchens and pantries, some closets, and an old, damp, bedroom. There are about a dozen beds there for the servants.

And all of them just stood up, grasping rusty butcherer's knives and other grim appendages.

Good enough for public healthcare.

Except for Buttermilk, you can't see nor hear her.
>>92205
You realize there are no skeletons.
Maybe you hit your head a bit too hard?
You don't know about the skeletons, Buttermilk's behind a corner
>>92206
You make it within the earshot of the others as one big skeleton wearing a cook's hat plunges at you.
You need to beat my roll to not get grabbed.

you heal her good.
Even the fur on her scars grows back just as it was when she was a little filly.
>>92214
The skeleton is too quick for you as you're quickly swarmed.
The group starts carrying you into the kitchen, where you can see three skeletons have already put water and some vegetables to a large cast-iron pot. A sickly green fire is crackling underneath it. You're thrown into the pot and the heavy iron lid is thrown on the cauldron.
>>92221
You cut the corner just as one of the kitchen doors stops swinging.

You sit on a rug that's on the floor.

You can see five of the skeletons standing watch over the kettle that's boiling. These are only armed with aprons and large wooden spoons though.

It's warm. Like you were sleeping-

There are 7 skeletons there, including the Cook, who is wielding a very large cleaver.

A piece of his skull even falls on the floor now, but he manages to rise on his hooves again. There seems to be a chunk of the familiar green stone inside his head.

"I don't quite remember…"
He pats his temples once and his eyes roll around his head
"I guess it was nothing."
>>92502
He's scared shitless for a while, becoming so pale he's actually reflecting the light in the room
>>92498
"That is one of master's guests! She's not supposed to be here!"
He goes for a book, pulling it and opening a trap door.
He quickly drops down it and the door closes itself.
>>92501
It has some cross bars going across it, but no discernible lock.
>>92507
The bars don't even budge.
>>92505
you drop down to a surprisingly well-lit corridor. It's made of large gray bricks and has multiple unlabeled doors in it. There are also crossing corridors every three doors. You can hear foot steps in the distance but you're not sure where they're coming from.
The rest of the party gathers at the study.

You drop down into the same corridor, on top of Card.
>>92516
You drop down on top of Neith
There seems to be something weird going on in here, your detect alignment doesn't seem to work here.

There are multiple lighter footsteps too.
"He said the intruders are here…We need to check the study!"
The shelf doesn't budge.
>>92544
It's a normal room for a person. Very plain, with only a bunk and a small drawer.
>>92545
You spit the bits out while swearing profusely.

You throw the book case off you and hide under the table. Gladly it has an end board so they can't see you.
The door to the study is suddenly thrown open and three voices enter.
"Wow, they really made a mess of this place."
"Look! The trap door's open!"
"
You can hear some shuffling as they go through the papers on the floor
"They didn't take anything important, good."
"We need to put the spawn back into it's cage and report to the bookkeeper."

>>92552
They are all similar rooms.
>>92553
You can hear some mumbling from the chute that dropped you down there.
>>92556
You slam your hoof inside Neith's mouth.
GEE, THAT SURE WAS A GREAT IDEA.
Neith is now afraid of Dentists.

You could stare at them for an eternity from your hiding place.
Two of them have hoods on, so their only defining characteristics are that one is large and stallion-like, and one is short and chubby. One of them is a very worn, tired, and starved looking pegasus mare.
They are just about to leave the study.

"Out of the goodness in your heart? I have a family to protect!"
>>95168
You backtrack a bit and enter the corridor to the training room.
The air gets hotter as you trek through hallway. The rock from which the hallway is built is getting ever darker.
Not long after the stone has changed to almost pitch black you can hear agonized breathing and animalistic sounds coming from close by.

"I-i'm not worth killing?"
He tries to drag himself towards the door while looking around him wildly.
>>95187
You enter a large rectangular room.
There's a large bloodstained mat in the middle, and some gladiator weapons in the sides. In one corner is a large cage, and inside it is a large form moving.
It's being poked by some ghouls and dregs.

You hit the ghouls, burning one's skin.

The ghouls unlock the cage and run away.
>>95225
You charge in too eagerly, as a huge mass rumbles out of the cage screaming furiously.
It swats you away with a clawed paw, ripping your armour to shreds.
You're thrown to the far end of the room and land in an armour rack.
>>95236
You're left speechless at the sight of the monster.
It kind of looks like a diamond dog, except it's got a huge gaping maw with razor sharp teeth on it's chest, eyes where there are supposed to be none, bulging flesh, boils and cuts, and tentacles growing out of it's back.

"I'm a slave and so is my family! We were raided by a bunch of cultists and sold! I sometimes make jewels for the vampire's concubines!"
He falls on the ground helplessly, hitting his head.
>>95256
You can't.

Looking up it's the mare he was with, looking at you with terror.
He didn't have any fangs though.

Yes you are. You might call it an obsession by now.
You've been hiding it for too long.
The mare's stopped sobbing by now.
The stallion's still cradling her in his hooves.

The stallion helps the mare on her hooves.

No. There's the other door.
>>95415
There's a few bodies on the floor, and some rags too. There are two doors in the room in addition to the one you entered through.
>>95413
Well you could either go to the vampire's lair or wait for her to jump down the same hole as you.

It's a staircase. Going down it you get to an empty hallway; after walking a while you can see a doorway, after which is a wider hallway.
It's built from white marble with pillars to the side. They are adorned with different banners of vampire clans and at the end a huge gaudy door with numerous bat motifs on it can be seen.

Yep, there's a pressure plate running under the whole mat.
Not thinking any more about that you drop the mat and step on it.
The trap springs and starts falling down at a terrible velocity.
You might get killed if that hit ya.
>>95520
Yep, it's definitely coming down.
Buttermilk and Ali, DC 6 to dodge
Card Trick and Aurelia, DC 5 since I presume you were cuddling further away
You can go DC6 if you want to

You manage to get out- or do you?
You notice a dull pain and a sudden feeling of immobilization.
Looking behind you you can see your tail is smashed, impaled by a spike.
You can also see
>>95538
Half of Neith crushed under the trap
Her hind legs are completely impaled by rusty nails, knife blades, and such.
She's helpless and bleeding profusely.

You enter a large hall, lined with expensive looking furniture. There are two large fire places, numerous bookshelves and banners on the walls, cozy chairs, tables, booze cabins, basically anything you could think of.
And right opposite you is his casket, a good 50 meters away on a slab.
Before it stands a figure holding a duster.
"Like you're under sedaation…"
He quickly turns to you as you enter
"Master is sleeping. Not to be disturbed! He'd be very groggy if you managed to wake him from his torpor."

And though it may soon no longer be sung in devoted praise, song will never leave me so long as I live. I walked in darkness for a while. Saw death and stared it down. Watched horrors beyond reason swarm those who I cared for. Fought for my life, for my hope, for my redemption. And even heard her voice once more. But in the end… it was not quite enough.
…Do you still fancy that duel you so often referred to? I doubt our paths will remain intertwined for long. Best we leave no loose ends."

Of sacrifice, of loss, of how it all went so wrong

But had I never learned to dance… perhaps that would've been the best"

A show, no bother
Another dance for the masses

I could not stay strong
And in moments, down on me it crashes~"

But I failed to see
That in a daring bid
I ignores all around me
And in one mistaken spin
As all I did was grin
I watched fire consume a dozen and another and one more"

"So run I did
I ran and I hid
And prayed for forgiveness and hope
But Pinkie said no
She refused to show
All I got for my apologies was a 'nope'"

WORKED MY SKIN RED
FOR A CHANCE TO MAKE ALL THINGS RIGHT
