Wanderlust: Equestrian Nights - Play By Post (Recruiting!)

I asked elacular a question and I'm waiting for an answer.

Hey Copper... Would you mind cluing us in on the Lady Knight? I have no idea what it is.

Oh, the Lady Knight is a fantasy series (or at least the first four books of the series) that I actually like irl, and it translated well to pony.

Your post got buried in all the flirting and I forgot about it. Oops.

So I finally watched the season finale. At least now I know where we're going if someone says to take shelter in the palace.

Also, you weren't kidding about having a guest room. And then some.

Or about Tirek's week long campaign of terror and destruction. Why do you think Ponyville has an emergency vaulty-shelter-thingy-that-I-totally-know-the-word-for?

So I have several protection based combat abilities. I don't have a corresponding non-combat ability because I didn't think I'd be in a situation where they'd be useful that wasn't necessarily combat. Is there any way I can use things like shield (which for me is literally pulling a spur of rock out of the ground to act as a shield) to, say, protect someone from falling debris?

Are there any non-ponies in the groups? Rainbow Dash said everyone instead of everypony...

...You don't see any... </gmface>

In reality, it's a habit of mine. Shockingly, I do some non-pony writing here and there (GASP!) and so I don't always think to translate to pony-speak. (Although I'm pretty good about "hoof/hooves" over "hand/hands".)


As long as I'm here, you might benefit from checking the Absence thread...

General Knowledge: 6+2=8

I haven't had 2 in a skill in a very long time. It's quite entertaining.

General Knowledge:
Roll(1d20)+5:
8,+5
Total:13

General Knowledge: 13 (roll) + 15 (skill) = 28

Can I get an answer to this? I figured it would have come in right about the same time the explosion happened.

Nope. No response from Rainbow Dash; interpret that how you will. Meanwhile, your filly is trying to escape...

Yes, I noticed. Also there was an explosion.

5+7=12. Well, I already made a post unaware of whatever I was supposed to be perceiving, so I guess that works.

Also, I'm casually wondering whether kid has certain goat-related connotations in Equestria or not.

He registers that the lavender filly is trying to run away again and picks her up with his magic again, bringing her to eye level. "Kid, Where exactly are you trying to go right now? Do you have someplace you need to be?"

This same filly made an Athletics check and hit a 20. Top that with an Arcana check and I'll let it be.

13+14=27

I still can't make a DC 21 perception check with this roll.

Soft yelps, jumping back and out of the way of the mare. "I'm not here to attack you or steal anything, I-... wait, are you stealing stuff!?"

Initiative roll:

You get to go first, I got an 8.

Note: For purposes of combat, the fire is also considered a creature, and a viable target for attacks. It can hurt you.

...Uh, guys? It's been two days... Is everything okay?

Ugh, I thought I'd posted... sorry, I'll get to it.

I think mj and I both expected the other one to take point. Sorry about that.

Better.

Copper Rose wrote:(Hold on, I specifically mentioned not letting the water touch the oil. Why is it splashing on me?)

...Because when I designed it's attacks I didn't think about alternative flavors or ways to reward your flavors. Sorry, I'll work on it for next time (Even this early version is pretty fun.)

...Hmm. Maybe I should make a monster compendium as we're going...

I think the noise Wandering Eye was reacting to was the fake explosion from Lavender, but I'm not certain.

Also, do I get a result for trying to jump through the open window? I'd like to point out that this window was big enough for Water Drop and Glowing Soft to get through together.

... The forum ate part of my post it seems. Fixed.
