Equestria is not the paradise that most of its citizens believe it to be. Dark secrets hide behind facades of innocence. Hungry monsters stalk the shadows and walk among the people. Cultists practice forbidden magic in the name of cruel gods, and an ancient evil is stirring from below.
Daring Do, Professor of Archaeology at Golden Oaks University, has known the impossible exists since she was a foal, and it has held a dark hold over her ever since, guiding a search for answers. A search that leads her to ally herself with private detective Phillip Finder as he investigates a deadly web of intrigue with a dark figure at its center. As she and her allies face an ever-deadlier array of cultists, lunatics, assassins, and monsters, she finds herself in a battle to protect the world while confronting her own demons and risking her own sanity.
A reboot of sorts of my former series Ponyville Noire, Daring Do: Shadows Over Equestria is an adventure-mystery story with heavy influence from the Cthulhu Mythos and related spinoffs, particularly the Arkham Horror franchise. It features many of the same characters but under different designs and inspirations.
