Pinkie visits Rainbow Dash, and finds her engrossed in a certain VR video game. So she decides to join in, and enters the world of... Corruption of Champions.
Haahahah, I knew this would happen! Though I hoped that Pinkie wouldn't transform into a dog-morph. I learned to hate them, for... reasons. Anyway. Pinkie will be surprised to find the slime creatures, male or female, matters not. I still expect her (wait, she's a he now...) to break Kelt into submission, just for good measure. Oh, and the dog transformations.... change that away, please.
I just had a crazy suggestion: I know you can't do this in the actual game, but maybe at some point Pinkie and Rainbow's NGears should be upgraded, and allow for them to play at the same time?
Also, I want Pinkie to indulge in Equinum whenever she finds some.
4342581 Oh nono, don't get me wrong. I have seen a big load of wierd shit. But the things i saw there on FA, those were.... hm, rustling my jimmies, to put it nicely. Normally I'm tolerant to a very high level but that thing.... ugh. Let's just talk about how this story should continue, shall we?
4342600 Hm. Well, cotton and Edryn, they should be met and knocked up, in this order. Both of them can be knocked up only of the player has extra fertility through a perk... or large balls. So, let's get those AND horse transformation stuff! Oh yes-yes, ten or so bottles of Equinum and Pinkie will be a horse morph! Hahahah, perfect!
4342873 Basically: the furries ruined a good portion of my enjoyment on some sites. 90% of them were dog and fox morphes. Hence my reaction. It's my own special thingy and this is why I highly dislike them.
4342884 Well, I guess if it's something so personalised to you, then I probably wouldn't make much progress trying to dig any deeper that that.
Still, I'm not sure I'll be able to cater to your aversion, since it's a problem specific to you that I still don't understand the motivation for. While I don't have a set plan for transformations yet, I don't think I'll be able to rule out the possibility of all of the canine, lupine or vulpine items in the game I'm afraid.
Also, your use of the blanket term "the furries" is interesting. You use it like you're referring to a group you have no part in, despite, by your own admission, your enjoyment of this very furry game.
4342925 Okay, lemme clear this up, point by point.
My problem is going back to a few years earlier, it can't be undone and has to do with some... fetishes. I'm not naming anything.
I understand how much the TF items are present and has effect, so I'm not expecting you to avoid them, no, that's not the case. I just stated that I dislike them. It is your story, your choices, I'm a mere reader.
As for the furries: I used this word in a bad sense, I'm sorry about it. What I thought about was a very specific group of them with extreme fetishes and inhuman behaviour. I found the game itself on FA, so by that you can see how I am used to browse that site. But once again, I can't avoid finding pictures of those fetishes, and that makes everything all worse.
Now as this is cleared, I hope that we reached understanding and none of us has bad opinions about the other.
I have my preferences, I state them clearly and you can ignore them as they are. If I write a story (which I will, soon), then I will make choices based on my preferences and create something that will fit into my gameplay and style, so, don't worry about changing your story for a reader.
4342989 Well said, that all sounds very reasonable.
Just to clarify myself, I wasn't offended by anything you said to start with, I just wanted to express interest in your phrasing, and let you know what you might be in store to see later.
4343024 Ah forget it, basically I'm just saying we're all good yay
Also blacklisting a tag means marking it so that it doesn't show up in your searches. Come to think of it I'm not actually certain that FA has that feature though. I know e621 does, so if you want safer furry browsing you could go there.
4343050 I don't actually have too many detailed plans in regards the in-game events for each character. Most of the time I find out what happens by opening up the save I have for them and making decisions based on what I think they'd do. Besides that, it's as much an adventure for me as it is for the readers.
And anyway, even if I did have something up my sleeve, I certainly wouldn't go giving it away now would I?
4343069 Even though you almost did. You have saves for each character you write (btw, continuing Dash's story would be nice). In this way i can start writing as soon as possible. In fact, I think I will start playing, make notes and write my story of it later. This will be interesting!
4343102 Bah, well it was just a shot in the dark. Guess I'll look forward to seeing who it actually is.
The oldest character I have on save file is 131 days old, level 16. Although I'm pretty sure I once had an older character that I accidentally erased. In terms of accomplishments, I've cleared the factory, sand castle, and Zetaz cave before, but have never managed to beat the damn harpy army in the harpy dungeon. Mainly because by the time I'm at that level my lust is like perma-fixed at at least half-full. Oh, I've also completed Urta's quest a couple of times.
4343130 Heheheh, you'll be surprised at my choice. I hope to finish enough playing to work on it later.
My oldest character is almost a whole year old (missing like 10 days or so) and I did everything except Urta's quest. How peculiar. Well, I hope to see the next chapter of your story soon.
Oh, can I use the 'Champions of Mareth' as the part of the title of my creation?
4343146 I don't see why not. There's a rather limited amount of title mash-ups you can make of CoC and ponies, after all. (Although technically I didn't really reference ponies at all, huh.)
Anyway, sure, go ahead. If people confuse them for the same series, they'll work out their mistake soon enough, and the worst that'll happen is both stories get each other some extra attention.
4343159 True. Oh, I have a question. In this world there are humans with multicolored hair, wings if pegasi and a single horn if unicorn is the base pony?
4343165 Yeah, that's generally how I prefer to write humanised fics. Taking away everything kind of feels like I'd be removing the uniqueness from both the characters and the world.
4343176 I understand. Oh, how much I would love to have a pair of wings.... literally flying away from all the bs life can bring, heh. My OC shows this need of me to be free. Welp.
4343183 Dude, I totally get where you're coming from. Heck, MY OC is an Earth pony so enamored with the sky that he built himself a pair of mecha-wings. Flying's where it's at.
4343193 My OC's a unicorn who learned to "fly" for short periods using magical telekinesis. Unfortunately, it's extremely limited. He's no Twilight Sparkle, after all.
4343340 If I have an idea at hand, my mind will go into overcharge mode, create everything for a story, I only have to type it out! Besides, my clan in World of Tanks needs me in an hour, I have no time to waste!
4343334 Heh, mine was a unicorn who, due to machinery malfunction and workplace hazards, lost his horn and most of his magic abilities (my headcanon is 'No horn? You're screwed.'); however due to the nature of his special talent of cybernetics and biomechanical engineering was able to make a pair of cybermechanical wings embedded into his body's muscular and nervous systems, while still being powered by electro-plasmatic turbines (such turbines convert a relatively low amount of electrical energy into a large amount of electrically-excited plasmatic gasses due to the nature of the gases used in said turbines; when those gases are allowed to escape, then vectoring said exhaust has the capacity to create massive amounts of thrust in relative to a comparably-sized jet or petrol turbine and the likes of such other thrust engines) to be able to fly without necessarily needing to 'flap' the wings, which would utilize muscles and neurons that he had no former usage of - it makes it easier than having to bio-engineer nerve synapses, implant them, implant the wings, then train yourself to utilize new 'Ghost Appendages'. This, coupled with a bio-cybernetic magnifier that concentrates what little magic he can still naturally use into a more usable state has allowed him to have a direct line-of-sight point-phase telekinetic ability to somewhat replace the lost abilities of his. When using it, however, it looks like someone shot a beam of light from a projection emitter by the blunted tip of his horn where it broke, which shoots out and surrounds the one object at a time that he can manipulate using that. It also doubles as a self-defense weapon, able to make a crude electrical arc that can act as a low-powered taser weapon.
TL;DR. Too Much Technobabble: He's made a machine he hooks into to go whoosh and fly away.
4343862 This sounds very interesting and well made as well, I can see the actual technology behind it. However, I must ask. How did he create this technology with the steampunk level technology and minimal help of magic? He must be an Einstein of ponies, or something.... the other options are too alien and off-canon, so I wouldn't say those.
Anyway, yes, flight is something we can reach, in a way or an other. Pegasi are lucky with their wings.... and now imagine that you lose them, how much that would affect your mental state! Perfect for mind-breaking.
4343340 Alright. It is done. First chapter written, edited, proofread, uploaded, submitted. Second will be done tomorrow (or later today if I feel like playing, dunno.
4343305 You and 4343862 you, I think it might be in your interests.
4346236 Yes, but that would hardly be the weirdest thing to happen in this game, and given the choice between that or "die out", this way probably seems preferable.
Do ALL the lake events!
Aaaaand now I'm seeing Goo Pinkie.
An infinite capacity for snacks, full body hugs and super bouncy ball powers? MADNESS
Haahahah, I knew this would happen!
Though I hoped that Pinkie wouldn't transform into a dog-morph. I learned to hate them, for... reasons.
Anyway. Pinkie will be surprised to find the slime creatures, male or female, matters not.
I still expect her (wait, she's a he now...) to break Kelt into submission, just for good measure.
Oh, and the dog transformations.... change that away, please.
-Zeph
I just had a crazy suggestion: I know you can't do this in the actual game, but maybe at some point Pinkie and Rainbow's NGears should be upgraded, and allow for them to play at the same time?
Also, I want Pinkie to indulge in Equinum whenever she finds some.
4341588
Even MLP easter egg event?
What about the Fish'n'F*** Otter girl, I forget her name, and the tiger shark
4341618 What's wrong with dog-morphs? Have a bad encounter with Hellhounds? Or did you get the Canine Pepper bad end?
4342221
No-no, it's going deeper than the game. Let's say once I was lost in the unholy crevices of a certain site of furry 'art'.
Never again.
-Zeph
4342284 Ah, can't handle the dark side of the Internet. I kinda wonder what site that was...
4342581
Oh nono, don't get me wrong. I have seen a big load of wierd shit. But the things i saw there on FA, those were.... hm, rustling my jimmies, to put it nicely.
Normally I'm tolerant to a very high level but that thing.... ugh.
Let's just talk about how this story should continue, shall we?
-Zeph
4342590 I still say meeting my favorite characters in the game. Oddly, they're hermaphrodites, even though I don't care for herms...
4342600
Hm. Well, cotton and Edryn, they should be met and knocked up, in this order. Both of them can be knocked up only of the player has extra fertility through a perk... or large balls.
So, let's get those AND horse transformation stuff!
Oh yes-yes, ten or so bottles of Equinum and Pinkie will be a horse morph! Hahahah, perfect!
-Zeph
4342627 Someone needs to demonstrate the Bakery's Fox Berries. Heeheeheehee...
4342662
Oh no you don't.
Anything BUT foxes.
4342688 What's wrong with foxes? My fursona's a fox.
4342702
Aaaand there we go.
*Jumps into a Pz.Kpfw VI Tiger, preparing for the worst.*
4342717 ...?
4342741
Oh, you have no idea.
4342777
I don't think anyone has any idea at this point. I would certainly like to though.
4342873
Basically: the furries ruined a good portion of my enjoyment on some sites. 90% of them were dog and fox morphes.
Hence my reaction.
It's my own special thingy and this is why I highly dislike them.

(Also lrn 2 blacklist tags nub lol jk)
4343006
O...kay?
I am a bit confused right now...(And what's this blacklist something? O_o )
4343024
Ah forget it, basically I'm just saying we're all good yay
Also blacklisting a tag means marking it so that it doesn't show up in your searches. Come to think of it I'm not actually certain that FA has that feature though. I know e621 does, so if you want safer furry browsing you could go there.
4343042
I search for things specifically, so e621 is safe for me.
But nevermind it!
Let's talk about what you have in plan for Pinkie!
4343050
I don't actually have too many detailed plans in regards the in-game events for each character. Most of the time I find out what happens by opening up the save I have for them and making decisions based on what I think they'd do. Besides that, it's as much an adventure for me as it is for the readers.

This will be interesting!
And now take a guess: who will be my choice?
-Zeph
4343084
Yeah, I guess that is a little behind-the-scenes tidbit for you. I figured it wouldn't be all that hard to guess though
Hmm... Fluttershy.
4343098
Haaaah! You shot way away of it!
Though my choice is a pegasus.
Well, off to play ze game!
Oh btw, how old is your oldest character? what did you achieve? Stuff like this?
4343102
Bah, well it was just a shot in the dark. Guess I'll look forward to seeing who it actually is.
The oldest character I have on save file is 131 days old, level 16. Although I'm pretty sure I once had an older character that I accidentally erased.
In terms of accomplishments, I've cleared the factory, sand castle, and Zetaz cave before, but have never managed to beat the damn harpy army in the harpy dungeon.

4343183
Dude, I totally get where you're coming from.
Heck, MY OC is an Earth pony so enamored with the sky that he built himself a pair of mecha-wings.
Flying's where it's at.
4343193
I think we found our zen.
Also, you gained a new follower.
Cheers!
4343199
Yay, I'll toast to that. Cheers!
4343193 My OC's a unicorn who learned to "fly" for short periods using magical telekinesis. Unfortunately, it's extremely limited. He's no Twilight Sparkle, after all.
4343183
4343305
Well well, looks like we've got ourselves the full spectrum of fliers here. Wings, tools, and magic.
4343325
I say, quite a group!
Anyway, I'm already halfway done with the first chapter, I think I will post it later today.
In a few hours.
4343334
Wow, you sure don't waste any time.
4343340
If I have an idea at hand, my mind will go into overcharge mode, create everything for a story, I only have to type it out!
Besides, my clan in World of Tanks needs me in an hour, I have no time to waste!
4343340 Yeah, well, the downside to quick writing is low quality. See my stories for examples.
4343334 Heh, mine was a unicorn who, due to machinery malfunction and workplace hazards, lost his horn and most of his magic abilities (my headcanon is 'No horn? You're screwed.'); however due to the nature of his special talent of cybernetics and biomechanical engineering was able to make a pair of cybermechanical wings embedded into his body's muscular and nervous systems, while still being powered by electro-plasmatic turbines (such turbines convert a relatively low amount of electrical energy into a large amount of electrically-excited plasmatic gasses due to the nature of the gases used in said turbines; when those gases are allowed to escape, then vectoring said exhaust has the capacity to create massive amounts of thrust in relative to a comparably-sized jet or petrol turbine and the likes of such other thrust engines) to be able to fly without necessarily needing to 'flap' the wings, which would utilize muscles and neurons that he had no former usage of - it makes it easier than having to bio-engineer nerve synapses, implant them, implant the wings, then train yourself to utilize new 'Ghost Appendages'.

Alright.

4343305 You and 4343862 you, I think it might be in your interests.
Here is the LINK

Hmm. Interesting.
4346236
Yes, but that would hardly be the weirdest thing to happen in this game, and given the choice between that or "die out", this way probably seems preferable.
