War Against The Gods · 7:48pm Feb 9th, 2013
So as the title says, I'm thinking of making a new story, a long one maybe. I played all the God of War games save for the new one and I got this idea while playing Gof of War 2. Basiclly, Twilight Sparkle, once a faithful student of Celestia, Goddess of the Sun and General of the NEG (National Equestrian Guards) fights the Griffions with her loyal commander Rainbow Dash and Lieutenant Pinkie Pie by her side where she battles the leader of the barbarian army, Gilda and just as Twilight is about to be killed by Gilda, she pledges her soul to Wrath, the dragon God of War and Rage.
Wrath, taking pity on the mortal unicorn, grants her the power to kill Gilda by giving her the Blades of Betrayal, long, curved sliver blades with golden handles attachedto long silver chains and the golden skull of a unicorn screaming in slient terror at the end of both handles, which are forged from the deepest, darkest parts of Tartarus itself and wrapped around her front hooves, never to be removed and wrap around her neck when not in use.
After that she is is branded as a monster, for which she goes on a rage and attacks many small cities, ending up killing her mate, Spike and their daughter, Rose Sparkle and being cursed by Zercora, now being granted the title as the Ghost of Ponyville, with her familes ashes staining her fur permentely
Damn, I'm getting ahead of myself, so yeah....new story, maybe, maybe not. Thoughts?
Also if I do make this I may need Alicorns as well as other creatures to be displayed as Gods, so you may have a free chance at bringing in your OC'S.
What do you all think?
Also just to inform you all, it won't be a crossover but will be an AU and based on the games though won't have more then half in common
I'm starting to hate crossovers now since they just skyrocket to the feature box and have little to nothing about MLP except that the characters are ponies...
But for you, I shall read it.
Do it!
811342 It won't be a cross over but it will be AU and thank you my friend, means a lot to me.
811419 I'll wait for a bit to see what others think
God of War huh? Give it a go! Sure, similar works have been done but that doesn't mean your story will be unoriginal. It's like shippping fics: each one has something that makes them special in a way... though not always. I think I'm gonna like it from your description though, even if DARK is not my usual thing.
As for an OC? I describe mine as a good guy mainly based on the Red Mage/Wizard+Blue Mage classes(I'm a 'Comment Warrior') so I'm not sure what you'd want from him.
811438 Nope, that kind of stuff is known as a "blender" crossover, where elements of each world are meshed together. That said, you would be best served by still keeping Twilight booksmart, and be sure to include her solving puzzles and stuff like the actual God of War Games as well.
As for Alicorn OC's I never created one, I knew that much when I started writing.
You lost Trixie halfway through the first paragraph, Trixie doesn't really like this idea.
Not that Trixie is saying you shouldn't write it per say, just that Trixie likely won't read it. Sound end up pleasing alot of people though if you wrote it.
Very interesting idea Inferno. Although I never played God of War, if i may admit, this is a very good concept.
811556 Thanks for the vote, and you should really really play them, best games for PS system
811465 Other work of the same idea has been done before? Really? Can I see such a fic. And thanks for the vote though now I'm having doubts plus I have other stories that I may need to finish cool OC though.
811482 Huh, never notice that before, thanks for the vote though and it's all chill.
811483 At least your honest, I'm honestly having doubts about this fic now plus I still have to finish Legacy of Death Belle.

Trixie's main concern really is that your premise is something that stretches any sort of logic so far just for the sake of it being like god of war means that unless you are REALLY good, everypony will be ridiculously OOC, at which point... Why do it? It just becomes ponies for the sake of having ponies in it at that point.
Trixie doesn't believe I've read any of your stories yet though, so, Trixie has no idea whether you could pull something like that off or not.
Will give you the benefit of the doubt if you do write it though.
811622 Very good and valid point, like I said before doubts I'm honestly hoping you do like the stories I have wirtten so far and if I do write this (if ever then hoping you'll give it a shot) but for now.....doubts
811648
Trixie will likely check out your next story.
811590 No, no... I meant the turmoil setting. Not THIS idea specifically. Like I said, each story has it's own theme one way or another.
Also... Thank you! Some reading my previous post may consider my OC description to be a bit much but the Comment Warriors have FAR 'stronger' combatants so I'm really holding back here. Besides, in some official FF games you can combine class traits so it's not really over the top either. I'm classy baby!
811725 Ah.....I hear you, then you may not like some of my other work, I'm a very dark and tragic writer And That does sound badass, I have to agree
811707 Thank you, means a lot to me, feel free to read my other works if you have not already
I've never played GoW nor read too many cross overs but this one sounds interesting and Ill have to give it a few chapters but definitely do it your dark stuff is kinda fun and interesting.
812329 Then you should really play it, it's one of the best games created for the PS systems, thank you friend, that really means a lot to me, I'm glad you like the way I write in a real sense of style Hmmm....I might do it, still have a bit of doubts though, maybe after I finish Legacy of Death Belle I'll write it....maybe
812347 Unfortunately Disc games don't do well in the desert so I have to make due with my Super Nintendo until next year, I am gonna have to make time for Death Belle sooner than that though.
812478 NNNNNNNNNNNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO But SN is still amazing And thank you very much brother
