  1. Esquestria: The House of the Sun - A pony cultist experience

    In my opinion, if the DoA was betrayed by anyone (and her paranoia isn't just a side effect of never having been a pony), it would have either been her Sisters or the Mother of Ants (personally leaning to the former). For the Sisters argument, there is the odd (seemingly nostalgic) monologue...
  2. Esquestria: The House of the Sun - A pony cultist experience

    I agree that counterattacking there was a mistake (I wanted to do an investigation ritual instead), and that we should have just helped the cult skip town when that vote came up (even just to get the manuscripts). Overall, it's a mix of the original thread going into war footing against the cult...
  3. Esquestria: The House of the Sun - A pony cultist experience

    [X] You promise to let her help you.
  4. Esquestria: The House of the Sun - A pony cultist experience

    While that could technically be the case, that seems like it would make the request a Trap option compared to the others, which I feel is kind of unlikely.
  5. Esquestria: The House of the Sun - A pony cultist experience

    Well, Soft Sweeps is still more Pony than Wolf right now, so I suspect whatever her request is wouldn't be too beyond the pale for us. In fact, I think we may even be able to dampen down her Wolfy-ness a bit if we're lucky.
  6. Esquestria: The House of the Sun - A pony cultist experience

    Well, we did finally vote for Jade to get into the Memory of Light, so maybe that could provide some explanation as to what Harmony is and how the Alicorns work.
  7. Esquestria: The House of the Sun - A pony cultist experience

    Even if her way of trying to save Celestia was foolish, I think being kidnapped for months, mutilated, and having nearly her entire family die is a pretty disproportionate consequence for trying to save one of her mother figures.
  8. Esquestria: The House of the Sun - A pony cultist experience

    I know that already. I was there for the Master hijacking Shining Armor, and I know the QMing style. I was just saying that relative to what happened with the Master (where we got their mysterious disappearance, the strange pattern of Ends-is-Beautifuls, Shining's Amnesia, etc), there hasn't...
  9. Esquestria: The House of the Sun - A pony cultist experience

    That's a weirdly meta argument against what I said, especially since that claiming the idea of a middle ground option between killing and befriending would inherently be a bad story is entirely subjective. Also, if she was really that desperate to eat Velvet's kids that she'd do it offscreen...
  10. Esquestria: The House of the Sun - A pony cultist experience

    I personally hope to appease her just enough so that she decides to become someone else's problem once her bindings expire rather than taking anything out on us.
  11. Esquestria: The House of the Sun - A pony cultist experience

    I thought that was more about feeding Baldomare more knowledge, with that being functionally synonymous to blood to a being made out of knowledge. The cost of befriending her (and seemingly to begin fixing her wound) is a level 7 book, with no mention anywhere of needing Pony sacrifice for it...
  12. Esquestria: The House of the Sun - A pony cultist experience

    Personally, I wouldn't be surprised if Luna calming ponies' nights actually stalls Celestia's study of Lantern/transformation into Daybreaker, even if it only works once or twice.
  13. Esquestria: The House of the Sun - A pony cultist experience

    Well, Rarity does have Forge 1, so she can technically do stuff. I do agree that she's not enough, and we'll need to find more. Maybe the ruins of the Mallery have some Forge spirits running around.
  14. Esquestria: The House of the Sun - A pony cultist experience

    By the way, how many points to a SH check does the current Max level influence bring? I personally don't remember, and I want to check if that was included in your chance estimates.
  15. Esquestria: The House of the Sun - A pony cultist experience

    [X] Plan KISS (Keep it Snake, Stupid) [X] Plan Prudent KISSing [x] Plan Prudent KISSing but even more prudent [X] Plan Responsible KISSing I may add more later, but these look good for now. EDIT: Added in one additional plan I wanted.
  16. Esquestria: The House of the Sun - A pony cultist experience

    While we may get scraps, I don't think we are particularly lacking in Winter or Edge scraps (the main ones we'd most likely get from the Ashlands.
  17. Esquestria: The House of the Sun - A pony cultist experience

    Since it turns out that Baldomare is slowly bleeding out, it makes me suspect that the Watchman (her implied patron) is not one of the Hours that survived the collapse of the Mansus. On a related note, given that Biedde and the DoA don't seem to have this problem, I would suggest that the...
  18. Esquestria: The House of the Sun - A pony cultist experience

    Okay, I will add this on to my votes as well.
  19. Esquestria: The House of the Sun - A pony cultist experience

    I think Velvet is currently trying to respect Twilight's wishes to leave her alone. I could see Selene or Cadence trying to do something about it on their own time (or Velvet eventually changing her mind), but she currently feels too guilty to order anyone to get near her.
  20. Esquestria: The House of the Sun - A pony cultist experience

    [X] Plan Spreading Ourselves Thin Always Gets Us Punished [X] Plan Wrap-Up [X] Plan Lightcatcher No Leash Some of the recent discussion has made me more wary of the Lightcatcher plan on accounts of it using the Leash, but I stand by my other two votes. EDIT: Added new version of Lightcatcher...
