Updates and an Exquisite Corpse · 4:03pm Sep 23rd, 2014
So, I finally updated again! Sorry that it took so long. Editing that one was very difficult and I've been distracted with other things. I hope that the next one won't take as long. It also contains the first bonus chapter. You can now see the aftermath of Discord's defeat, why Right had to be a ghost as opposed to another type of undead and learn a bit about the caribou/reindeer (both names are correct, but Equestrians use the first).
Caribou tend to be slower and frailer than ponies, but they can walk on air and are more magically powerful on average. (Ironic for a warrior culture like theirs, but hey) They are also excellent craftsdeer. In caribou culture, the importance of proving oneself is well, very important. As such, they are very competitive and they are not short of soldiers, particularly in their navy as they are avid sailors and explorers. Innovation and perfectionism is also highly thought of by them. Despite being more aggressive than say, Equestria, they also tend to be very generous. Gift-giving is another important part of their culture and being given the opportunity to volunteer for Prince Rudolph's system of annually distributing gifts worldwide is considered a great honour to them. Ontareeindeer is rich in coal deposits and giving coal as a gift is a massive insult in their culture. Their competitive nature and powerful magic means that many winners of The Last Use of Antlers have been caribou. The current ruler of Ontareeindeer is Queen Vixen.
I have also once again participated in an exquisite corpse. This one's prompt was "Tealove goes on a search for magical tea leaves and uncovers a conspiracy". The resulting lack of continuity is very funny. You can read it here. I have been planning to use Snowatcher myself, but in a very different role from the one she has here.
What is an exquisite corpse?
2477943 Something created by several people with a restriction. The most common one being that none of those creating it are allowed to know what most of the others are doing. In our case, we used the typical method that each of us was only allowed to read the previous chapter. We had no idea what had happened before or what the plans of those coming after us were.
