Oh this should be interesting.

sure.
>>
Ok so that's Zebro, Campfire and Radiant sorted.
Waiting on Max

Supposedly Aenoi was gonna play tonight too. Any word on him?
If not, we might have space to spare for others.
>>
>>2297434

>>
>>2297536
Aenoi said he'd be here.
Not sure where he is, to be honest.
>>
>>2297565
I don't really hat him, but I'd rather die like a hero than wimp out.
>>
>>2297567
>>2297546
Mud pones stronk
>>
>>2297544
I forgot to write what Inspire Courage does, didn't I?

It breaks all effects of fear, helplessness etc, and grants immunity to crit fails for a turn
>>2297554
I'll use you as >feel fuel, then give you a suitable exit.
Hope to see you again in the past.
>>2297567
Valiance borrowed the Runesword but I'm sure he'll give it back.
You can always just take Conjure Weapon as your spell (conjures an enchanted weapon, once per encounter) if you want.

We now have 4 here + 1 coming later + 1 unconfirmed.
Wait for Aenoi or pick someone else?
>>
>>2297634
Pick someone else, he will catch up to us later if he arrives.
>>
>>2297593
You can always retire and end up burning down some forest in your old age.
>>
>>2297604
>giving yourself to a god who could betray you on a whim

Being a misotheist doesn't really work in a setting where the gods actually exist and are benevolent
>>
>>2297604
S-shut up!

>>2297634
Yeah, that should be nice! I'll take that.
With that in mind, does it I mean I have one ability from the Knight class and one ability from the Mage class?
>>
>>2297665
Celestia would never betray me!
>>
>>2297634
I'll add Inspire Courage to my staff.
>>
>>2297665
>Celestia
>Benevolent
>Luna
>Benevolent
>Discord
>Benevolent
>Tirek
>Benevolent
wat
>>
>>2297688
>Celestia
>Not benevolent
>>
>>2297678
all knight ones + one mage one.
In this case, Conjure Weapon is your mage skill.
>>2297681
>not Fireball for constant casting
Ok, your call.
>>
>>2297693
>sad
>so sad
>>
>>2297665
What's that Terry Pratchett quote about gods going around breaking the windows of atheists?
>>
>>2297703
Oh I didn't notice the cooldown that got added. I'll enchant it with Fireball.
>>
>>2297688
Well, Celestia and Luna are benevolent in their ends, even if they might resort to some questionable means

The others don't count because they're already seen as evil by most pones anyway
>>
>>2297703
Sounds reasonable. Alright, I'm ready I guess.
Oh right.
Alignment: Neutral Good
God: None
>>
>>2297712
Oh
okay
>>
Do you want to add another party member or start with just four?
>>
>>2297760
Of course we want to add party members.
>>
>>2297760
Another party member.
>>
>>2297760
Another would be good.
>>
>>2297760
Add one.

Is the cooldown for each individual mage spell, or can I only cast a mage spell every other turn?
>>
>>2297772
>>2297776
>>2297781
Gutspone and Gaius have offered themselves up thus far.
As always, additional party members fall on the party to vote on.
>>
>>2297802
Individual spells have cooldowns, so you can alternate between the two.
>>
>>2297806
Depends on how long we run, though. I'll have to leave after 3-4 hours.
>>
>>2297806
Holy shit we're going to be tanky.
Umm, can't we choose both?
>>
>>2297806
Can we take both?
>>
>>2297806
Also question, since my cutie mark is weapon-smithing, should I still get any bonuses out of that? Like a +1 with the weapons I wield. And I still have that NO SLEEP feat right?
>>
>>2297806
Let's take both.
>>
>>2297829
>>2297843
>>2297834
So who do you want me to kill when Dawn shows up?
>>2297838
You still have NOSLEEP, but unless you want to go and reforge the Runesword, I doubt your smithing skills can improve your existing gear that much. I assumed it was more related to you making new gear for yourself every now and then.
>>
>>2297901
We can't just tack on a seventh person for the finale?
>>
>>2297901
Eeeh, you said you would broaden the player cap in the finale a bit.
>>
>>2297918
>>2297928
Every additional player slows the game down as I need to manage them in the situations, but ok. I did promise a bigger game.

Everyone report in when ready and we begin.
>>
>>2297901
Aye, fair enough then.
>>
>>2297901
I can leave when she shows up, since I need to go at some point anyway.

I have an interesting idea for Gutspone since I want to use him in next campaign, he keeps disappearing for a reason
>>
>>2297944
>>
>>2297944
Ready when you are.
>>
>>2297944
Ready.
>>
>>2297950 Max
>>2297958 Pluck
>>2297964 Zebro
>>2297965 Radiant
>>2297968 Campfire
Where the dicks is Gaius?
>>
>>2297983
Asleep?
>>
>>2297944
>Immediately get volunteered for main party

Well okay then. Ready if this is what we're doing.
>>
>>2297983
So I heard there were "things" that you guys did to my character when I was still in the dungeon.
>>
Good. IT BEGINS.
Those who come in late come in late.

Sunrise.
It is a day as beautiful as any has ever been in Canterlot. Celestia has made sure of that.

Celestia has sent out word for you to meet her in the castle for a final mission briefing. You gather in the same situation room you've so often used in the past.
Trusty and Dawn are missing.
Everyone else along with some new faces are present.

Take your time to get acquainted.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g5bG4zRPgkM
>>
>>2298053
We talked.
>>
>>2298060
I ask the others if any of them had a really grim dream last night.
>>
>>2298060
Sit somewhere and maintain armour and weapons.

Could someone summarise everything so far? Trying to read the threads but I'm too tired to really pay attention
>>
>>2298060
"Where is my lounger sister again? We need her too!"

>>2298085
"I did... but I talked with Celestia...
It wasn't a dream. It was a vision."
>>
>>2298060
Trying to awkwardly socialize with the others after being in a dungeon for so long.
>>
>>2298006
Slaying the laundry, if you must know

I'll sit down and take an interest in the Paladin's purity seals.
>>
>>2298060
OK IM BACK.
>>
>>2298107
"It's good to see you are in your right mind again."
>>
>>2298088
There is a cult of Necromancers worshiping Strife, a Draconequus. We need to stop them or everything dies.
>>
>>2298111
WELL THAT WAS FAST
Want me to still explain your story or do you want to make it up on your own?
>>
>>2298060
Talk about last night's dream while still being half-asleep
>>
>>2298132
You do it please.
>>
>>2298106
Do you want to make crushing that skull into our top priority.
>>
>>2298114
"It could've been worse though. But I appreciate the fact that you didn't slaughter me the second I, well, you know."
>>
>>2298109
"I'm not one for lifelong celibate, I just, well... I haven't found the One yet..."

>>2298155
"You know it's never too late to be redeemed.
We would never kill you, just because you got a bit tempted by dark wizardy."
>>
Continue testing weapons, sitting in one corner and not taking any effort to interact with anyone.
>>
>>2298127
Disturbing. Such a threat must be addressed swiftly.

>>2298146
Some kind of focus or icon of worship for them?
>>
>>2298146
"Yes, stopping Pathwreck and the Reanimator only comes second."

>>2298183
I point a hoof at Pluck
"Who is that guy, by the way?"
>>
>>2298197
From what we can tell they are trying to use it to revive an ancient and evil god. He's like Discord, except he actually wants to kill stuff.
>>
>>2298209
"Celestia requested my presence. I assume you are the others she mentioned?"
>>
>>2298250
"Yes, we are to represent her Wrath in the upcoming fight."
>>
>>2298106
>She said she had a dream
>A revelation
>A vision
>She said she had felt a higher calling
>We arranged an emergency initiation
>She should be back soon enough.

At the Grand Temple of Laughter, a silent figure kneels before an altar.
There is nopone else here. She is alone.
Yet laughter rings all around her. It is calming. Joyous. The twins had guided her here in the dead of night, they had to leave, but said she would soon meet the one she sought.

Another enters the room.
She has a large cake with her.
"You must be Dawn. What a pretty name."
The high priestess of Pinkie is wearing a wide smile and her night gown.
"I had to get up crazy fast to get the cake ready in time. Now come, let us begin"

The rites of initiation are not long, but they are very silly.
Many cakes, balloons, whoopy cushions and board games later, the two mares are rolling with laughter in the temple.
The high priestess gets up first.
"There. All done. Now go and spread the joy of our goddess"

The sun is rising. It is time for Dawn, Charlatan of Pinkie to join the others.
>>
>>2298222
Specters of the past cast large shadows I see. I look forward to banishing it with the Light.
>>
>>2298272
I was hoping you'd chastise me for not referring to her as "Princess"

"Is that what you are here for? I see...

How nice it must be to have a single figure you can rely on for every one of your thoughts."
>>
Ok guys im here sorry!
>>
>>2298287
I turn to the Twins.
"How do you know this? Wait, she didn't...
Or did she? Oh I'm going to have some words with her! How could you? She's a lot longer than you two! And there's two of you! Do you have no shame?"
>>
>>2298321
Please don't make her smash you with her hammer. I need someone solid to stay behind when we get down there.

>>2298344
That's something to say. I heard a rumor on my way here that you had spent the night with someone too.
>>
>>2298321
"It's better to die alone, not believing in anything.
Are you questioning my faith?"
>>
>>2298344
>She's a lot longer than you two!
Looks like while your sister dodget the stallionface bullet she ended up with some... OTHER stallion-like features
>>
>>2298272
I was hoping you'd chastise me for not referring to her as "Princess"

"Is that what you are here for? I see...

How nice it must be to have a single figure you can rely on for every one of your thoughts. Do as you want."
>>
>>2298321
>>2298381
Please don't start a fight between us today, we have a lot to accomplish together before that
>>
>>2298385
Holy shit, I wanted to write younger, what the fuck did I write

>>2298362
"I-um, uh, it was nothing! It was just late, and she offered me a place to sleep, nothing more!"
>>
>>2298408
Listen to the Zebra.
>>
>>2298385
Oh my.
>>
>>2298386
Whoops, is anyone else getting posting errors?

>>2298381
"Not at all. Everyone should be allowed to live as they want, and die as they want. As long as you're satisfied with what you've been given, as much or little as it is.."
>>
>>2298419
Whatever you say.
>>
Gracious and Valiance enter

"Forgive us for our late arrival."
>"THINGS HAVE CHANGED. I WILL BE LEADING THE ASSAULT ON THE GATES MYSELF"
"I will still join the strike force. Is everyone here?"
>>
>>2298459
Faith provides a beacon in these uncertain times, but the conviction of self can be as steadfast. We must be as one for the task we are about to undertake.
>>
>>2298459
"I stand for something, and I stand firm. I have values that lead me, and I follow them, whatever the costs may be. Your heretic words won't work on me".

>>2298485
"Where is the Princess?"
>>
>>2298485
"Sir Valiance, before that..would you please return my sword back?"
>>
>>2298485
Trusty's not here yet.

I wonder how this is going to go down.
>>
>>2298485
"And where is Trusty, by the way? Campfire, you were with him yesterday, weren't you?"
>>
>>2298535
Gaaaaaay!
>>
>>2298485
I stand ready to serve.
>>
>>2298485
I think everyone's he-No wait, Trusty is missing
>>
>>2298521
Chuckle quietly to myself, then remain silent.
>>
>>2298535
I think he's still with that zombie you found in Ponyville.
>>
>>2298521
"The Princess is addressing the troops by the gates. She sent us to make sure everything here is ready."
>>2298526
"Oh oh yes, certainly. Here. I had it cleaned recently."
>>2298532
>>2298535
>>2298543
Would you prefer bad feels, super bad feels, or just sad feels?
>>
>>2298588
Extremely sad feels
>>
>>2298588
Super sad feels
>>
>>2298588
super sad
>>
>>2298588
Just sad.
>>
>>2298588
"If I may, I would speak to the soldiers who will go to Battle as well. Since I can't fight alongside them, at least I want to give some encouraging words."
>>
>>2298588
AS SAD AS POSSIBLE
>>
>>2298588
"Hmm. What will we need?"
>>
>>2298595
>>2298599
>>2298601
>>2298632
So be it then
>We saw him climbing the tower of Canterlot Castle
>The child was with him
>He agreed to be the eyes of Canterlot while we were underground
>The child insisted he be taken along
>As he could never return home
>He said he could carry ammo for Uncle Trusty

>>2298630
>"I WILL SPEAK AS WELL. DUSKLIGHT REQUESTED I DO SO."

"If there is nothing else to settle here, please accompany us to the catacomb gates."
>>
>>2298707
"I think we are ready. And I hope Trusty knows what he is doing. I'm not sure the kid should see this battle..."
>>
>>2298707
Lets go.
>pad Glorious on the head
Pinkie bless you.
>>
>>2298707
"I haven't seen Trusty in a while, but I trust in his judgement. Let's proceed to the gates, I'm ready."
>>
>>2298707
"Let us go."

Walk a little ahead.
>>
>>2298707
I hope nothing happens to them.
Let's go.
>>
>>2298707
Is it wise to use the front door instead of a side entrance?
>>
>>2298707
Lead on. Every minute wasted is a boon to the enemy.
>>
>>2298760
"I am very, very dissapointed in you, sister. First you spend the night with those two, and now you are a priestess of someone other than Celestia."
>>
>>2298817
Hold your tongue heretic im a royal priestess now.
>>
>>2298760
>"I'D RATHER YOU KEPT YOUR HOOVES TO EITHER YOURSELF OR THOSE WHO ENJOY THEM. OR AT LEAST WASH THEM FIRST."
>>2298791
>We shall head out to the side entrance
>But first, we should meet up with the others to confirm the plan.
>>
>>2298834
"Yes, a veeeery serious one at that..."
>>
>>2298848
Well let's go.
>>
>>2298848
Are you still mad because I want to demolish the catacombs?
>>
>>2298817
>>2298834

Watch visibly, but keep thoughts to self
>>
>>2298893
>"YES." "ALSO YOUR HOOVES SMELL LIKE DICK. AND CAKE. I DISLIKE CAKE. TOO SWEET FOR MY TONGUE. AT LEAST WHEN I HAD ONE."
>>
>>2298934
>dislike cake
Ultra casual.
>>
>>2298934
"Commander, please. Another time would be better for this.

If we can now proceed to the gates?"
>>
>>2298934
I see the guards are more...varied then I imagined.
>>
>>2298972
Roll my eyes.
"Let's just go already..."
>>
>>2298934
>>2298972
"Um, yeah let's go. All this cake talk is making me hungry."
>>
>>2298934
>>2298972
We're burning daylight.
>>
>>2298972
Sigh and agree, too much time has been wasted.
>>
LET'S GO ALREADY
>>
You arrive at the catacomb gates.
Celestia has finished her speech and is stepping off the small podium they have erected on on the courtyard.

Captain Duskshine greets you as you arrive
"Commander Gracious. We were waiting for you and the others"
>"WE HAD SOME... THINGS TO DISCUSS. THE CELESTIAL WISHES TO ADDRESS THE TROOPS BEFORE WE BEGIN, AS DO I.
SHE MAY GO FIRST."

Celestia stands at the sidelines, flanked by several guards.
>>
>>2299070
Watch and wait for her to begin speaking.
>>
>>2299070
I look at Celestia, then step on the podium, facing the troops.

Music, if I may

>cont
>>
>>2299070
This should be fun.
>>
>>2299098
"Brave soldiers!
Brothers and sisters!
We are here to purge the heretic cult that has been infesting the catacombs beneath the City of our Princess!
There are many of them, and they will use unholy sorcery and evils beyond your imaginations against us.
They don't expect us to win, but we will never surrender! Weakness shall not be in our hearts!
Those ponies we will face today don't know love, nor friendship. They are cowards who will abandon their own if they fear that their life may be in danger.
That is why we will crush them! We draw strenght from each other and cover the backs of our comrades! We never leave anyone behind!
And if you feel that your limbs and body is failing you, look into your heart, and you will now that Celestia's Light will always defend those who are loyal to her!
Let Her Light guide and protect you!
We figth in Her name, and they will feel Her Wrath through our weapons! We will make an example out of those who defy Her!"

After pacing around a short bit, I continue.

"Now I know that for some of you this might seem simple preaching.
Celestia herself said to me, that faith shall not be the only thing for a pony to follow.
Then don't fight for Faith.
Don't fight for Celestia, or Her City.
But don't fight for riches, fame of glory either.
Don't fight for any of these, but keep in mind, that if we let our enemies win today, they won't stop until they raped, defiled and destroyed ANYTHING that you ever held dear!
They will kill YOUR wives, husbands and children and burn down YOUR houses.
Fight for them.
Fight for Equestria.
Fight for Life!"

As I say that, I raise my Celestial Hammer in the air and say : "Remember, the Sun always Rises!"
>>
>>2299070
"Princess Celestia..I would like to apologize for what I have done. I'm not the kind with words and I'd like to keep it simple, so I hope that you would accept my apology."
>>
>>2299114
Despite my previous reservations, be noticeably impressed by the Paladin's speech.
>>
>>2299070
Good morning your higness.
>>
>>2299114
I step down from the podium, and turn to Gracious.
"You many now say your own words to them, Commander."
I greet Celestia and stand beside her.
>>
>>2299190
Turn more attention to the Paladin than the princess.
>>
>>2299238
Smile smugly at the Knight.
>>
>>2299114
There is a soft murmur among the crowd, then a slow clap that grows into a thunderous cheer.
You have touched some hearts this day. They will fight harder than ever before.
>>2299147
"Rise, knight Maximilian. Your actions were understandable, though your methods less than noble. We shall speak no more of it, but never try such an act again."

"You have my word, Princess. It's enough that I have brought dishonor to my descendants who had fought for you ages ago. I shall do my best to redeem myself."
>>
>>2299296
I applaud.
>>
>>2299296
Applaud at Gracious' speech.

>>2299364
"We shall see, fellow Paladin."
>>
>>2299326
Oh, and applaud

Celestia speaks once more.
"It seems we are all ready. Cloak, Dagger, kindly escort the strike force to the side entrance.
Gracious. You and Dusklight will lead the main attack.
I will remain at Canterlot Castle for now. If I am needed, you know how to contact me."

>We should go
>The entrance is in the poor district
>Follow us
>Unless there is something more you need to do here
>>
>>2299421
I'm ready.
>>
>>2299421

Then follow the Twins.
>>
>>2299421
Let's roll.
>>
>>2299421
Lead on.

As you head out to the poor district you realize it isn't quite as bad during the day.
Run down and moldy, sure, but not AS bad as during the night.
You see a familiar face rummaging around some junk
"Facken morrin toya missers an missusgrumbleicecuntmumble, cammere ta look fer news er wat?"
>>
>>2299528
Let's just ignore him, we don't have time for his ramblings.

Old Man Henderson would make a great cameo

Walk past.

Keep moving.
>>
>>2299528
Raise eyebrow, keep moving.
>>
>>2299528
Keep moving. Nothing to do here.
>>
>>2299528
I'd spend the day in the countryside if I were you. This is a good day for a vacation.
>>
>>2299528

Stand back and observe the situation.

Watch with interest.

Note how much better stallionface looks compared to the other one, a mark of one who has strength and conviction to truly live.

"He doesn't look like he has anything to lose. Threatening him might be of little use."

Take it down a notch, there's no need for threats.

Cloak and Dagger are just quietly observing the sitution

Take out two bolts and being playing with them as I continue to watch.

Stow bolts. Show slight relief, and motion to leave.

>>2299956
"Ya arrite, 'av fan ya fack. Yer'll get wats commin fer ya. grumbleuntrustworthyfacksmumble."

Cloak and Dagger shake their heads for a moment, then lead on to an old, burned down house.
