searching 5th Edition D&D Pony Game


The Jar

Recommended Posts

Hello all,

I have been working a good deal over the past couple of months (and as a thought project before that) on running my own 5th Edition DnD Pony game and have finally started laying meaningful foundation to it. While I have borrowed from the Ponyfinder team's work for their 5e conversion, I have heavily modified a lot of it as my intention was to create something that could take place in the Equestria we know from the show, comics, etc. I expect this game will be flavored towards role-playing, having the opportunity to build and develop your own goals and perspectives and how they related to the newly settled outpost of Harmony.
 
If you are interested, please let me know and we can get started on getting you ready to go. I expected to begin this game in January (after my nursing exams and when my new client engagement at work begins) and will be creating a Skype group as well to ensure everyone is up to speed and information is available (and to just hang out). The Google Drive links are listed below and I may include an update with basic setting/game information soon in this post.
 
Thanks again, I look forward to making an awesome game together!

 

Harmony Outpost Group:

  1. Icicle Frost, Unicorn Magic Student/Guard [ice]
  2. Summer Sun Cloud, Pegasus Weather Pony/Writer [Giles]
  3. Wraith Nightwish, Unicorn Spirit Researcher [Haunter]
  4. Clockwork Shadow, Changeling Engineer [ColTill]

Manehattan Group:

  1. Starfall, Griffon Talon (Paladin) of the Griffon Kingdoms/Guitarist [Magical Trevor]
  2. Silver Light, Sea Pony Chosen of Luna/Vocalist [ColTill]
  3. Dancing Bolt, Pegasus Choreographer/Precision Dancer/...Bagpipes [bugsy]
  4. Spunk Rock, Pegasus Music Aficionado/Bassist/Rebel [spunk]

i have always wanted to try some D&D so this sounds like a load of fun! :D

Cool, 5e DnD just came out last year and it is, by far, the most friendly to first time players.  I will PM you the link to the free online the company who makes it (Wizards of the Coast) provides.  I can walk you through making your character but I recommend having an idea/concept of who your pony/griffon/diamond dog/dragon/etc is before we start that. :)

 

Since the game starts at the lowest level (Level 1), your character will likely have just gotten started on this career path or is embracing more difficult challenges on this path for the first time.  Let me know if you have any questions, I'd be happy to help walk you through anything!

Haha, I got the starter books for the 5th DnD lately, but I had problems since everyone was too busy to play. I'll gladly do this with you but I must say I really havn't done it before... But I'm a decent roleplayer overall if I can say so. I'll read up the links you posted and I'll gladly register for this fine adventure. : )

 

 

Favorite part, creating a character... With a slightly edited system which is extra fun.

 

 

Anyway, do I use the normal DnD character sheet?

Yes on normal 5e DnD character sheet.

Sure thing, Snow Frost.  I sent you a PM respond along with the Skype chat link.  Reach out to me if you want to start talking character concept/creation. :)

DnD? I've wanted to get into this after my professor introduced me and a couple of friends. I'd like to join if you got room!

I'm sorry EQ_T. We currently have 6 players, which is actually 1 more than I felt comfortable with previously. If any of them drop out, or if we get a couple more (enough for a second group and DM) I will let you know.

All:

 

I currently have 6 players in this game but am seeing if there is enough interest for a second group to be run by a second DM. Such a group would take place in a different setting besides the outpost of Harmony, but I would work with that DM to make sure an equally developed and comprehensive cast and environment exists for the players to enjoy.

 

If you are interested in participating in this game, please let me know. I'm as excited as you are about bringing the Equestria we all know and love to life (through the Magic of Friendship DnD 5e).

 

Thanks!

 

EDIT: If we can get 1 more then that's 8, 2 groups of 4.

HEADS UP!

Still looking for a 2nd DM to help out with this game.
 We have enough players for two full groups and another body to handle the Manehattan Group would be excellent.

I ask that the person be decently knowledgeable about 5th Edition DnD and ponies.  Please let me know ASAP if you're interested.  The expected start date for the Manehattan Group is February 13th, 5pm EST.

Thanks!  I look forward to hearing form you! :D

I came here from your post on roll20.  I would like to join.  If there were any problems it would be that the first session i might have to leave early because of a non-computer tabletop game I'm in.  Other than that i am good for the group.  (The manehattan band one)  Tell me what you need and i will be it.  (btw are we going to be in a band during this rp, if so i would like to be my d&d role and the vocalist)

 

Edit:My roll20 account is DJ-PWN3

 

 

 

Character:  Spunk Rock.

A Pegasus rogue  (also the lead singer of the band if possible)

I will try to get an ms paint picture of her before first session.

(should Manehattan group also fill in the questionnaire)

Hey, are you still looking for players? If you've got room, I'd be >so< happy to join. Feel free to add me on Skype so we can talk about details; my skype name is "evilgenius1993" without the quotes.

 

Also, if you still need an assistant DM, I'd be open to talking about that as well.

That's fine, we can discuss later this morning on skype. :)
