Oblivion Shadow is a master Witcher of the Wolf School. A contract on a Leshens head brings him to the edge of the Northern Realms to answer a call for help. The fight starts off as normal. A second Leshen attack leaves him fighting on two fronts. The Witcher is able to escape, or so he thought when a sharp pain in his back leaves him waking up in Equestria. He is taken in by the Apple family, who treat him as one of their own. He is welcomed by the ponies of this world and he must learn how to accept that or risk upsetting a balance that he did not realize he was a part of. The question he has to ask himself is how does he get back to his world? Or does he even want to go back to a world that is fraught with war and drowning in hate and rage? His senses tell him that monsters from his world are in this new one but he can't seem to track them down. Could his world be bleeding into this one, and how bad will the damage be? He follows the Mane 6 and learns through them what it means to be a friend and a brother.
This is a revamp of the original An Equestrian Witcher. I am trying out a new style with it and altering the characters a bit as I go. Thank you for reading!

Thanks for the step by step guide and such a detailed info lowes employee login. Nice post!
... ?! What's this? A Rewrite? Think you can do better than the first? Where will this one go? It's already got less words than the other chapter one. What's going on bud?
I dig it. Considering he isn't an alicorn this time I imagine the whole debacle of hiding his wings won't have to be a thing. That would change a lot of the interactions between the characters, and maybe a decent number of plot points.

Its a rewrite, kind of. The other one will keep going but this one will mirror it in some respects. I heard how much my readers wanted a story without the Alicorn so I figured why not? I have some extra time and I will post it when I have extra time. It's not a huge priority to finish it or catch it up with the other one since that's a really overwhelming amount of chapters to consider. So it's not replacing the original, just a side work for some fun to remind me why I love the original and drive me to work more on it.
10427017
It will definitely make them easier to handle since they are not needing to be hidden. Lol. But they add in some interesting dynamics due to their size and the fact that he does not know how to use them. So it should be something new and kind of fun to work with.
Very nice, I do indeed wish for more.
10427783
I am working on the final edit for chapter two. Its proven to be a bit of a pain but so far I think it will work. Thank you for reading!
I'm guessing these are just leftover remnants, thought I'd let you know.
10428063
Fixed! Thank you for letting me know. I get in the habit of one style of pony and its hard to go against it lol.
Not sure if it’s been suggested yet but have you thought about adding in more monsters than the five in the old version
10431376
I will be adding more as I go to keep things interesting this time around. I am still working on adding more to some of the chapters as I go.
10431733
That’s good hear
Witcher
Needs a space there.
He

10432532
All fixed thank you! I appreciate the help!
I'm wondering how he's gonna keep Celestia from taking the element from him (if he is one this time too), considering he's a pegasus this time hiding magic instead of an alicorn hiding wings
10438446
The magic is pretty much the same as it once was but he is more careful about using it. So he has the option. So he has the option to use it to push her back.
i noticed one thing that's missing from almost every Witcher related fic i have read (i have found 4 in this site not including these two) every Witcher is a master alchemist. so oblivion should know alchemy and herboligy. regardless of the number of Witcher specific potions a witcher can create. most all of them are derived from normal potion+ magical monster parts. and white honey clears toxicity and poison effects. it also cancels any potion effect.... including healing effects from eating...
a Witcher would make an excellent field medic. he would have to. his survival WILL depend on it at some point and its not like a Witcher can just check into a hospital if they are injured.
10448372
That's an interesting point. I had not considered the medicinal aspect of it. I may try to mix that in as I go. Thank you for pointing it out!
Ya
?
Twilight when someone says no to Celestia:
*Shocked horse sounds*
10448978
Corrected. Thank you for pointing it out to me! Such a novice mistake to miss lol.
Hello, so I was wondering why Twilight was wanting to ask about the timber wolves (I'm assuming that's what they were) and not about how, why or the capabilities of his magic when she mentioned she had questions? Also nice to see another chapter.
10450511
Oh, I get it. Sorry, it took me a minute to reply. I had to figure out what you meant. Now that you mention it maybe I should add something about that as well. I will read it through and see where it might fit in and how to add it in so it flows well enough. Thank you for bringing it up.
I wonder how dear old Sunbutt would handle being denied by Oblivion, oh boy, things are getting interesting. And I wonder how long until they find out he's an alicorn?
10458870
Did I miss something and it says Alicorn in there? Crap now I need to go over it again. I was certain I had changed it to be Pegasus only when I retyped the entire thing. The original has him as an Alicorn but he isn't in the reboot. I'm so sorry if I missed something and it was not clear. That's my fault.
10448372
The problem is, Witcher medicine is too potent for normal humans and probably non-alicorns. The Toxicity could kill them rapidly if not instantly. Take Black Blood: I'm sure most mortals would not survive their blood being turned into Vampire Poison.
Sure in Witcher 3, we have a scene where a dying woman is given swallow and survives, but we never hear from her again. And it is inferred that she is either brain dead or in a coma.
10459739
I gave her the swallow and I went to a camp later and the guy she was meeting comes up to you and tells you she is alive but she is kind of off like she sleeps constantly and is pretty out of it. I wasn’t sure if I was glad I gave it to her or not since she’s not really living in that sense.
10460343
I agree, I would rather die than live in an incurable state where I am not in control of my own body.
10461115
That was my thought when I found out what had happened to her. Personally I think I would have rather died. Lol.
In chapter 3
I think you meant to have seven since it was stated earlier and only that the seventh is a mystery.
10462596
Crap. That's what I get for listening to the episodes in the background as I type things out.
Edit: Fixed!
hello again, I finally got around to reading this chapter and I enjoyed it. I did notice a few things though, 'The buck was still powerful enough to leave hoof prints in the bark of the tree and the filly yelped. She lost her gold on the tree limb and fell from her perch into the waiting forelegs of her sister.' ; 'Even though the idea was sound he hesitated. “Applejack, I’m not certain this is…” He stope das she held up a hoof to silence him.' ; 'Apple Bloom ran past him and headed for the front door. He pulled the door open and smiled back at him.' (I think this one is supposed to be she) ; 'He said as he thought back to the event. It took a few days to track it and then some time to bait it and then I had to wait for it to return so I could remove it.” He explained.' (I think there's supposed to be another quotation mark) ; that was everything I noticed in my read-through. I hope to see the next chapter soon!
10463701
Fixed. Thank you for letting me know!
A few corrections:
Caps lock got stuck unless you thought Mac's name needed that much emphasis.
Um, does Oblivion have the runs?
Is this supposed to be when?
Should be if.
Should be in.
Quite the easy mistake to make when you want quiet instead
10466217
Thank you for letting me know. I was rushing to get it ready and forgot to read it over before I published it. I really appreciate the corrections. Thanks!
I have yet to read the new chapter but you have already given me great joy. That is how you know you've found a good author.
Something I noticed. ' ...Taller grass as far as she dared. He chuckled at the sight of the black Pegasus as he ran around the edge of the forest. ' Anyway new stuff! Things are getting exiting.
10466389
I'm glad your enjoying it! I fixed the mistake you mentioned and thank you for letting me know.
Pegasus
Perhaps instead of saying
you could instead try using FIMFictions page break function
looks much nicer and doesn't take me out of the story when I see Break and think something actually just broke around the characters before reading the next bit and realising it's meant as a page break/scene transition. But that's just my opinion, I'll keep reading it just confuses me at times, especially when I haven't seen it in a while.
And for those of you who don't know how to use it, it's the add horizontal rule button, or you can just type hr inside of these [ ]
Got yourself an extra t there.
Need to move the speech marks over.
Easy way to fix this, change older to over.
Couldn't.

One speech mark too many.
Opening speech marks.
10459285
Unless you've already fixed it, I didn't notice any instances of him being an Alicorn this chapter so I think you're good on that front.
Needs opening speech marks.
The second letter doesn't need to be capitalized.

There is an extra speech mark here.
I assume you meant dealing?
Not sure if you did indeed mean drooped or meant to put dropped but I'll put it here anyway, just in case.

FIxed. Sorry for the delay in replying, been working lol. I normally use the page breaks but I use a serpate correcting software and it doesn't see them as an issue so I tend to forget them. THats my own fault. Lol.
10475093
Fixed! Thank you!

Fixed! Thank you again!
