I was a fairly normal guy... I thought I was happy too... until I was whisked away to take part in some kind of godly competition in a world that I was just introduced to... now I'm wandering the land of Equestria and beyond, and let me tell you, I prefer the show. What's worse, I'm possibly the ugliest creature under the sun. ...ah well, Que Sera Sera. This is my story. Let's see if you can learn from my mistakes.
Set in the Chess Games of the Gods Universe, it's a really good setting and community. Features one or two elements from the Elder Scrolls series. I beg you to give the story a chance. I thought it would be interesting to see what would happen to a person who came to Equestria and was turned into something not even remotely handsome or attractive, even in an animal sense. In other words, a sload.
Relax, Read and Review. It helps me a lot.
Wait, a sload?
Shit, even I'm not that slow, and I'm the goddamn Auditor.
Oh God...
I don't even....
I dont know if I should love this yet.....
This feels dirty for some reason.
Uh, this is more of a prologue than an epilogue. Epilogues are at the end of a story.

So it is! My apologies, I get them mixed up from time to time... because I'm an idiot!
When I saw the picture as I scrolled down the front page, I thought it was a Hutt from Star Wars. On closer inspection, it clearly is not - even the Hutts aren't that ugly. I've no idea what a sload is, but daaaaaaamn.

Indeed. As I said, I think it would be funny as hell to see what happens when a creature this ugly is introduced into a world where everything is either cute, cuddly, beautiful or attractive at least in an animal sense. For example, you can admire the beauty of a bird, large cat, or a finely groomed horse without falling in love or lust with the thing.
Can anyone honestly say they admire a sload's looks? In any shape or form? ...didn't think so. And in case you're curious, left a description of Sload's at the Author Notes at the bottom.
I looked up sload on the ES wiki, it didn't mention which ones sloads are in, and there is no mention of sload in Skyrim, besides a ship called the dainty sload.

They are from some Island out side of Tamriel....
and thus I sound like a /v/ fag....
I regret nothing.

Sloads are an extremely private race, as such the ones who do leave their half-submerged island-continent tend to lay very low and live solitary lives. The most famous one was N'Gasta a powerful Necromancer, something common in their race, and was featured in the Elder Scrolls game: Redguard. I believe there a few videos of Redguard hanging about online, particularly Youtube. If you care to check on such things. *shrug*
I like it, also yay I was referenced!
I like it so far....
any idea on the update rate for the story?
Yes a necromancer don't find many of those story around here.
*looks at comments*
Ah good no one else welcomed you yet.
Anyway.... I am Troutking!
The unofficial greeter for our game! Welcome!
I like the creature you've turned into very original!
I can't wait to see the ponies meet you and almost after throw up from the sight!
Well good day and thanks for the feeding!
Before i read the next chapter, i have one question:
What the fuck is a sload?
so slow
Nevermind, i just saw the explanation at the end of chapter 2.

In response to your question, there is a brief but detailed explanation at the end of the next chapter. So you have to read it to know! Ha ha! So you have to read it! See how my evil mind works?! Mwahahahahaha!
910462 ... well played, my friend, well played....
This is definitely a very... unique tale. I'll keeping on eye on this for further updates.
Uh hem...

Am I some kind of grammatical genius or what? I CAN'T believe nobody noticed the spelling error in the description
You said "wondering" but I believe you meant "wandering"

*Stealthily corrects the spelling while you are distracted my the politeness*

Oh sorry, then wait a second while I punish myself for this inexcusable error

Ah! That was a test! And you passed! Congratulations! You win the prize of one internet cookie! Not just any internet cookie, but the most perfect, DELICIOUS internet cookie in all the land! Congratulations once again! Here is said cookie in the shape of a crying Fluttershy. It's in that shape because I know you'll never be able to eat it... yes, I'm that evil.
Can't wait for undead minion army.....
Any chances of Dracoliches?
And estimated time between updates?
Or is it whenever you think it's perfect?
Either way, I think I'm gonna like this.
MOAAAARRRR!!!!! I am loving this so far, when are you going to make the next update?
PINKIE PIE IS AWESOME!!!!
I think sly might die befor you get to the town
Neat little creature. I'll be watching this story :3
Meh, sly was a dick anyway.
'And I…
Threw a rock at him.
…
…what? What? What were you expecting?
It was a pretty big rock!'
I see what you did there with that rock comment.
Heh, looking good so far. If sly keeps this up he might end up as a test subject for future magical practice.
Excellent, you resolved your first conflict without killing anyone! Too many Pieces just kill people willy-nilly with no second thought, it's good to see someone beat an enemy without resorting to lethal force.
Also, am I the only one who finds Sly charming?
I can imagine Sly's face when he first looked at our hero:
Still, I love this. It's still funny after my third time reading it. I hope you update soon.
Heh. I can't wait for them to get to town, since at that point, it'll be the Sly's word against his, and unless Sly still looks bandit-y, guess whose story the townspeople are going to believe?
More? Come on big guy, (see what I did there?
) Make more I love it!!
and sly is abut of a Dick isn't he?
Woah, this was great! All too little is revealed about these wonderous creatures in the games! I am really happy you made this, I am ever so gratefull! Adding this piece to my Favorites is the least I can do! Oh, and please keep the updates coming(not that I doubt they will, I just wanted to show how much I like this story)!
And by the way, yes- I DO think the Sload look awesome. They are awesome. I do indeed love them.
Uhh... I dunt know... Not that good an idea to drag a hog-tied pony into capitol of Pony-land? Looking like seademon feces and all?
Wow, i am so very intrigued by this fic! Keep it up!
I don't know why, but a sload makes me think somewhat of the Hutts from Star Wars, except with legs.
Continue this. Before I hijack it.
this is a good story
make more of this
