Spell Shock

@@EquestrianScholar, “Why, yes I am. More of a telegram to be honest in shape, but I admit it is a letter.” She would look at the mare; she… wasn’t very strong with humor, so joke must have gone a little bit… weird, especially since not everyone even saw the thing in question from around here. Whatever the matter, she would expectedly look at the mare. After all, she came here on an invitation, after all.

@@EquestrianScholar, Spending some time in navigating to the note itself, Daawn would take a second to think who she could ask where to find the said Miss Opal. The only reasonable person she knew who could guide be would be most likely studying in the library, so she would head there first, asking the first pony who was familiar to her at least on the level of name, as she… didn’t mistrust anyone, but her nature still kept her wishing to be… private, about matters like that – even if she disagreed with herself on that, sometimes.

@@EquestrianScholar,@@strideralchemy, Daawnily would look at the other pony going towards the guild, wondering if she was here on a task as well. She wasn’t born yesterday and knew that, when someone called for people in… her sphere of work even, usually there would be more. Or maybe she was just visiting, that was also a possibility. No matter the inner thoughts the mare was having, she would start thinking and trying to recall where exactly the meeting was supposed to take place in the guild, standing near the entrance in the meantime, awaiting for her memory to click in place.

Usually, Daawnily wouldn't mind taking any route to her target, but today she decided – since she has been stuck with her wings for ages, in the form of a pegasi she might as well try and use that! She would try to utilize her flying to navigate herself faster either past the problematic spot or to the shortcut she remembered, stopping perhaps only if someone would need medical attention and she could see them from her point of view. Want to use skill check Fly, which I have +7 to!

Daawnily, being a mare of… many actions, not always many words would just silently cruise towards Research Guild, only sometimes stopping if others needed her direct help, wellbeing of those around her had a small edge of priority over her current task, but even still she wanted to make haste. Minutes are precious, always are in her line of work – so if someone wanted to contact her, it was either very timely manner, or something entirely different. In the first case, her haste would be justified. I wonder what kind of scales the festival will be this year – she thought to herself on the back of her mind, she would always be busy around this time of the year. Celebrations, especially big in scale always left those in need of medical attention in generous amounts.

Morning, June 18th, Equestria, Centerlot – Daawnily’s personal housing. Looking over the letter one final time, before putting it away – Daawnily would sink into her thoughts, who could be the mysterious person wishing to contact her? Would they be dangerous, or is it someone really paranoid? She didn't really quite knew what to make of it, but giving all her thoughts a last glance, and a wink – she would stand up and start packing her belongings before setting out to the guild. It wasn't even the matter of money as it was a matter of curiosity, beside if someone needed her help, she is the one to do the helping job. ----------------- Daawnily would set her course towards the Research Guild.

Morning, June 18th, Equestria, Centerlot – Daawnily’s personal housing. For many, waking up in the morning is a rather boring, mundane and unpleasant task – for some it’s a painless routine, for the owner of the bed in which a white haired pegasi was laying it was somewhere in between. With a sound of the alarm spell finally kicking in full force, the mare would carefully remove the blanket and stand up on her hooves. Looking around her surroundings she would walk through one of the doors into her bathroom, doing her morning chores of hygiene she would then descend from the second floor of her house to the first one, heading to the kitchen and starting to prepare her breakfast, whilst she would be sorting everything else out. Minute after minute, a usual morning would commence on a routine, but there was something special about today and several days following today. Summer Festival was almost here and with it, there were many things to do, official business of order – in a way her own business. Finishing the breakfast, the mare would flick the switch of a light installed in the main room, she would carefully take a letter opener and would open an envelope sent to her from the order yesterday at evening, just a few minutes before she headed to bed it would arrive, disturbing her peace. While, a mare of action it would be unwise to go into details of important mission on a sleepy head, so she chose to wait until the morning and here she was, slowly taking out the letter concealed inside the envelop, sitting down in one of the soft armchairs and starting to read the letter itself.

I would like to stick with Grey (Scholar) since well, how else can i drive him mad. <3

By the way, i would recommend anyone with a character sheet to take a look at those two wonderous items: http://www.d20pfsrd.com/magic-items/wondrous-items/wondrous-items/r-z/vest-versatile and especially: http://www.d20pfsrd.com/magic-items/wondrous-items/wondrous-items/a-b/bag-handy-haversack You can poke Grey (EquestrianScholar) or Jaith on skype if you want those.

So Grey here pocked me so i guess i'm kind of with you all, hey everyone o3o Going to be a wizard. Thing. Silver-robe wizard.

First Refuge Camp, Near a Lake @@Snowy Storm,@@EquestrianScholar, Spell would simple nod, she would look for the shop as she was asked, but she would keep her silence as much as she could. Invocation of magic was a notoriously boring task, as one could barely talk after casting it and more so while holding the invocated magic inside. Nevertheless, she had to sort this little chore before they could move on. The style of hair didn’t concerned her much, but It did look a bit funny for her , however she would politely and with good reasons aside that kept the laugh inside. If she would be so fortunate to find a shop, she would give it a glance and would return to the other 2, still being quite silent and well, she was also checking so her horn is perfectly hidden and safe. Good thing for her, very little among even unicorns can sense invocated magic until it is let out with a burst, so she was relatively safe going on her business in here. The mana torrent just following her around, ignoring those less fortunate who couldn’t even suspect it existence.

@@Snowy Storm,@@EquestrianScholar, Spell who was still channeling magic from before, would blink as she snapped from the trance, letting a small crystal take the energy she condensed. The small piece of ice she kept frozen, would start shine, releasing low impulses of eerie power, it had a potential of making some uncomfortable. The power couldn’t be stored that way for long and if it was to be released impropriety, would for sure signal any unicorn for a mile around. -“Oh, I’m sorry, I was… dreaming.” – She replied and looked at her horn “Why… why do you bother?” With a simple smile she would start using a spell, her hair lighting up a bit as she used a hairdo spell, her hair aligning itself in a fascinating hairstyle, which quite conveniently – covered her horn, which wasn’t that big, so it worked out quite nicely and natural. She when would do another spell, the one which she used to glue the crystals in her lab space to walls, it was… somewhat of a glue spell, which made the hair a bit sticky around her horn. It would only be noticeable if she hangs upside down, otherwise the hair would cover her horn. -“Horns always have a peculiar fashion of sticking out and earth ponies have a thing for weird hair.” – she replied – “And it is a custom to take the hat off in front of your superior, is it not?” (I am sorry for long wait, also i hope this was fine) (Some earth ponies have ridicolously big hair and unicorns would try to use hats to cover horns for generations now, it would be a practice or a custom to take a hut off... and you dont need one inside the building, which would draw suspicion. Optical illusions are hard and can be noticed on any reflectable surface, so - hairdo!)

with new year is over us, i'm fully back. um... need to read up on posts

This is Midnight campaign setting. Midnight campaign setting doesnt have paladins. Why? Magic changes. Due to the magic changes in the game, Midnight does not have the monk, ranger, or paladin character classes.

@@Snowy Storm,@@EquestrianScholar, Spell would be mostly silent during this period of time, she was doing a quite important self-exercise which meant she was stockpiling magical power, trying to do it very subtly. There was only a slight mana wave going away from her, as she would do it – mostly due to the fact she shouldn’t be able to focus so much for so long, it was essential for the ritual a bit later through, so perhaps it was wise just not comment on it. It was generally a bit weird why she kept holding silence, perhaps there was a reason. No one knew, not even she. Maybe it was just not a thing she wanted to do, to talk at the moment. Either way, she would just do her thing, while stuff was going on. The block of ice was still frozen cold and wasn’t even leaking, which was nice – it didn’t ruin her polishing work at least so far. It would be best if it would be used soon, though. Another peculiar thing about her, she was walking in a style more suited for anyone but a unicorn, pretty much all the time. Speaking about head movement, as unicorns, due to a sharp stick on their had usually were quite careful with turning their head – which also often gave them away.

I'm a bit dissapointed kensai (Spell swords) are noot among the possible choices, since well it fits so nicely (And it's one of my favourite classes) Anyway, i can be either a Unicorn Wizard, the class i have a few years of expirience in playing (So, that mightbe a bit OP) A past-paladin melee class archtype (No, i'm not going on any kinds of boats in a plate armor, thank you very much) Or a unicorn gunslinger. I also can be a cleric,but i'd rather kill stuff not heal stuff. Also http://www.trovetokens.com/pathfinder.html <--- i advise using this, even if it has some feets which are not included in the rulebook, it's way more simple to then just you know, tyep a million things yourself.

I'm back, what did i miss? If anything

@@EquestrianScholar, Near the Lake of Old Ponyville She would look at him and giggle. -“Magic?” she asked “Ever heard of it? It’s the new things for unicorns on the go, quite useful.” The nature of the question was particularly hilarious for her, since she’s the one who made the crystal by freezing some water, so assuming she wouldn’t be able to reproduce the chilling effect was all kinds of hilarious. -“But yeah, maybe you should ask better question, like for example shouldn’t we probably cook up some supplies? I know how to cook only basics of foods" Looking around she would then put the shard of ice into a small little piece of velvet she had on her. It was very important for her to keep it safe now, as a lot of work went into it, as well as some magic. She empowered it partially, which would also help it stay frozen for a long period of time. Around a day maybe. -If we make haste, we can reach the place quite soonish, though I guess we need some rest too. – she would say, looking at them both – Oh and, you know… hi. (She would say to other pony) (Sorry had limited time for those last few posts, also that's the last one for me for today probably)

@@EquestrianScholar, @@Snowy Storm, Near the Lake of Old Ponyville “It’s a weapon I’ll use to stab the next person who says Spell Shock instead of Spell. Right in the eye” she replied, her voice was sounding generally annoyed “Does anyone here fancy tasting it? High velocity eye destruction, always fun”. She generally disliked being called Spell Shock, just Spell would do – yet people always continued to call her by full name and surname, which was stupid and ridiculous in her eyes. Through sometimes also amusing, but not at the moment. -“But really, it’s going to be a giant focusing iris for my spell, since I can’t get a hold of a diamond at the moment, it will have to do. That’s why it should be polished perfectly. So, I hope you find this answer satisfying. “ She would almost finish polishing it; she almost certainly placed some kind of spell too, to prevent melting for a moment. It looked sturdy, but still icy. It would be a good reflector mirror at this point, actually – which was the target all along. (Don't call her Spell Shock, she hates it x3)

@@Snowy Storm, @@EquestrianScholar, Near the Lake of Old Ponyville Spell would listen in half ear; actually she still was busy polishing the block of ice. When she would feel somewhat awkward silence she would look around and then look at him. -“I always knew there was something wrong with your afflictions, “sir”” – she would replied, with a look of amusement on her face, was he trying to get a reaction out of her – “The whole, try not to get attention of Archmagister always kind of gave it all away.” It wasn’t unreasonable to suspect what a high ranking anyone in the House Moon and Star who would hide things from Archmagister would be either to no good, or was working with someone else. -“Also with all due respect, it’s Spell. Not Spell Shock. I’m Spell Shock not Spell Shock Shock” – she would reply, blinking and afterwards would continue to clean the shard of ice she was holding The stone was now polished more like a cylinder or a round shape of sorts, it was kind of shiny due to being ice. It was most peculiar shaping pattern she was using.

@@Snowy Storm, @@EquestrianScholar, Near the Lake of Old Ponyville Spell would look at the pony in question, with a look which didn’t showed much, but it was all too familiar for someone who would knew her, she was thinking and calculating, probably not something good too, she never was keen on ponies she couldn’t recall knowing her all too well. There was a temptation to do a usual routine and throw a hex at the said pony, but she would hold it for now. Wouldn’t want to give a bad impression on the other person, though she honestly couldn’t care less for other ponies if they would be trying to talk with her in such a tone. She would then look at the other pony in question, and then would just mind her own business for a moment, she had a lot of preparations to make and she couldn’t afford starting chit-chat all of a sudden with those two. Not the best first impressions, she would admit – but time doesn’t wait for no one. She was at the moment polishing what appeared to be a block of ice she frozen with a cooling spell, for what reason is unknown, but she was polishing it as a gem.

@@EquestrianScholar, Guardians of Harmony – Mountain Base near Old Ponyville -“I will see about it when I have a chance to talk to said person, until then my opinion is not moving anywhere” – she replied – “We should make haste, the sooner we will be able to proceed with the postponing the inevitable, the sooner we will be able to stop doing that” There was certain rushed feeling to those words; it would seem she wanted to get it over with before it would turn out bad. Perhaps she wasn’t telling something, perhaps something else – but she would start walking much faster, time is of an essence and physical strength can be rejuvenated at the less important time. The main thing for her at the moment was to catch everything she needed on time. Nothing more, nothing less. About her feelings towards the cult, she had something personal against them, though he was not sure what and how, since he was pretty sure she never had direct involvement with them. Even if she stated her views, it was still a bit too peculiar. And weird.

@@EquestrianScholar, Guardians of Harmony – Mountain Base near Old Ponyville -“Perhaps. But it’s hard to believe in that. A murderer pledging not guilty is still guilty. A thief, who doomed families to starvation, is guilty as well.” – She would reply – “And those who pledge their bodies and souls to bring the worst into our world, are also guilty of this. No matter how much they pretend, they are still cannot call themselves not guilty” She would follow him, not paying any attention to him not looking in her direction. She had her own view on the members of the cult and she wasn’t about to change it on the whim. She just didn’t believe into “even the darkest of ponies can just redeem themselves”. She heard about a lot of things ponies did over the years, she wouldn’t give it much though usually, but not a lot of those she heard about could be forgotten or forgiven. Some things just go beyond the point of no return, no matter what. Like Earthborn practices, while she didn’t think Earth ponies are bad per say, but everyone in their military would get the axe if she could see to it.

@@EquestrianScholar, Guardians of Harmony – Mountain Base near Old Ponyville -“I dislike those who are with the cult. I dislike the cult. I do not kill, I’m not a murderer. But every rule has it exceptions. If we ever run into anyone pledge to a cult, even if it’s going to be a pair of foals, the judgment will be swift.” – She would give away a warning – “It is better that way. Also be careful with that kind of spell. Magnetism is your greatest enemy, and then something cannot escape your reach without a second’s realization” She had a particularly burning hatred towards Cult of Laughter, deep within she wanted every single benefactor, ally and member of the cult to be purged by fire and lightning, drowned in a bottomless ocean. It was a somewhat understandable reaction; she hated the idea of wasting someone’s life. She wasn’t a person to get murdering everyone, but siding with the cult is not killing yourself per say. It’s killing your soul. Something she considered an even bigger waste. -“Nevertheless, we should set on our journey” – she would add.

@@EquestrianScholar , Guardians of Harmony – Mountain Base near Old Ponyville She would keep her silence up for some time, thinking about something “I guess I can relate to that. In more than one way, even” – she would finally reply and then just listen to him talking about the agent they were supposed to meet. It was of importance for them to make haste, so she wasn’t planning to do anything to slow them down. At the moment she was thinking about everything, it was flattering what someone was concerned for her, but she didn’t know if she could truly appreciate it. Perhaps she could, but she wouldn’t say that out loud for now. “Is the sword enchanted with return charm? You know, so you won’t get disarmed as easily or often” she would ask, just to start a little chit-chat I guess. She wasn’t usually talkative person, but she needed a little bit more conversation at the moment. One of the things she wanted to ask she would not at the moment, the armor was most peculiar but she would ask about it later. For now she had something else to ask.
