Occupied Equestria - Howling Night

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

Dark Star and Silver are preparing a task for the Civil Administration. Iron is drowning in a Lake. Brie has just gotten approval to speak with a Changeling agent about acting as a collaborator, and Spark is petting the weird cat things.

Silver has to chuckle at the utterance of that statement. "It was far more than just few zombies. Many were much tougher than your standard breed of zombie, at that, with many having ability to paralyze you, or turn you into one of them, with single strike."

"It was entire system of ancient catacombs with three points of entry: one here in quarry, one underneath Curwhinny Farm, and one in middle of field. Curwhinny used it for his necromantic experiments, some of which were kept inside large well-like pits, and from which some escaped." Silver gives Glass an odd look. "It sounds as if your ponies were just as much in dark as our group was when we took job."

Silver nods some more. "I suppose with difficulty of acquiring intelligence in situation such as this, I can not fault you or anypony else. Joseph Curwhinny, after losing his entire family to plague, took to necromancy to try to bring them back, and used catacombs underneath his farm as base and place of research. It has two levels two it: upper level is where he stored many of his undead creations and experiments, raging from undead ghasts, to jars full of soul-infused ashes of long dead ponies, as well as where his living quarters were located, and lower level is where he kept his live subjects, as well as his other undead creations, including undead animals."

Brie would have seen a set of cows crossing the road in front of them, with two juvenile ponies leading them. Onyx and Spark get out, and learn that the ponies are moving cows between secret forest grazing meadows to hide them from changelings. One of the cows is missing, so one of the ponies goes back to look for it, while the other stays with the cows to rendezvous with some other pony. The little pony, ‘Ruby’ goes back to find the cow along with Spark and Onyx. They find the cow’s rope is stick under some roots in a small clearing, but while ruby goes to get the cow, an owlbear steps out from the forest. Onyx taunts it. But onyx forgot to bring his Halbred. This, it attacks Onyx while Spark twice lights it up with fire spells. Both Onyx and the bear are low on HP but not out, while Spark is probably out of fire

"We should have a lot of time to know for sure. I have a gut feeling something should happen before the expedition leaves."
He inhales deeply, about to change the subject to be a nosy pony. Trust me, last time he asks this.
"About small differences between our dreams, I wanted to know if anything happens after the Wirraway shelter is constructed, because on my end, something rather," he starts to form a little blush, "peculiar happened inside."

The creature smolders, even glows with orange flame from the fur on its back, blackened by fire and giving the unpleasant smell of burning hair. It is stabbed through the neck by Brie, punched in the face by Onyx, then stabbed through its hide and into its lungs by Spark. Now, with a last, mighty punch, the old crystal war veteran sends his hoof into the creature’s forehead, bro diving a sound of a cracking skull. It stops for a moment, then falls down to the ground. Brie and especially Onyx are left bloodied and bruised by the creatures. But they’ve won.

Ruby is terrified, but has already freed the cow’s tether from under the roots. He knows very well that if the creature had not been distracted by the grave Onyx, it would have torn him, and Betsy, to pieces
