After years of being the runt of the litter (despite having no siblings), Spike finally comes into his own and starts to grow up and mature. The result is a unique bit of magic all his own, or so the theory goes: He awakens one morning to find words hanging overhead that call him [The Gamer], along with powers that let him 'live life as though it were a game'.

How he decides to handle all of this, and where things go from there? That would be a spoiler, and you all know how we feel about spoilers around here...

An experienced thief dies before his time, leaving a mess that God must fix, the solution God thinks of is reincarnating him in the My Little Pony universe with the power of The Gamer.

Jedi Knight Revan Blake has barely managed to escape the clutches of the empire. Order 66 has destroyed the only home and family he has ever known, in desperation Revan gathers what he can of Jedi knowledge and jumps into hyper space. Using the force to guide him, he picks a random system, knowing full well he could run into a sun or a meteor belt.

Trusting the Force, he jumps into hyperspace with the goal of protecting Jedi history and teachings. However, as he travels something goes wrong, some unknown force pulls his ship from hyperspace and makes his freighter crash into the Everfree forest.

Being the only human, the only jedi, the only force user, Celestia offer him a home in the hopes he may find the peace he needs. However, the force awakes, and Revan knows he is the only one who can teach it safely, the only question is, should he?

What unknown path has open up for our young Jedi!

-UNDERGOING EXTENSIVE REWRITES!-

Update: As of March 4, 2021, all the original chapters have been taken down.

The stories of the Kamen Riders have become legendary all over the world, and even the universe. At one point, a whole world populated by descendants of Riders was formed, but has been destroyed by evil forces. The Rider Powers have been sealed into watches, and scattered to a far away world.

When Tom Decade, the last survivor of the Rider World and a descendant of Kamen Rider Decade, lands in Equestria, he is soon thrust into an adventure to retrieve all the RideWatches and keep his new home safe. But things aren't always as they seem, as multiple forces conspire to lead the young Rider to a ghastly fate...

For a long time now, the citizens of Equestria have been struck down by an epidemic of illness and sickness. Nopony seems to know for sure what could be the cause, but Princess Twilight has found one common answer: The restaurants and hotels of Equestria. All of them seem to be struck with the same kind of problems.

So with her friends Pinkie Pie and Rarity, they will cross over to Earth and bring back over a man that she has heard from Pinkie is a legend among humans when it comes to food. A man that she hopes can help her get to the bottom of the epidemic sweeping across Equestria: Chef Gordon Ramsay. For her sake...let's hope he takes the request well. And pray for the sanity of the poor souls of Equestria.

(this will include elements from both of Gordon's shows Kitchen Nightmares and Hotel Hell)

(Feel free to give any creative suggestions with this fic, its kind of a shot in the dark on my part making this one)

[Displaced] Well holy shite. This is weird. I'm just sitting on my ass, watching MLP, and I get an Email notification on my computer from a guy called "The Merchant" or something like that bull. Anyway, it's spouting something weird saying "Oh, Paragon-" (Thats my name by the way) "- You've been away from your brother too long. And I'm going to set things right." And now, I'm in fucking Equestria, looking like a grown up Spike! But... It feels like I'm home... What the hell is going on with my life...? Did... Did this have something to do with me wanting to end it all?

I do not own any image used in this story. MLP belongs to hasbro and the only character I own is Paragon.

Discord is once again loose, but after using his randomness to find some interesting information on some strange phenomenon in another world that has to do with an island and a bunch of humiliating events, the crazy spirit of disharmony and chaos comes up with a new, sick, twisted, disturbing plan that involves capturing 20 of the most popular ponies (and three non-ponies) and forcing them to play a new game while the rest of Equestria watches in horror (or most likely secret amusement and possibly envy of not being picked themselves).

What does the rotten host Discord have in mind for our 20 unfortunate selections? Well, looks like you'll have to wait and find out! Maybe, just maybe, if Discord is feeling generous, the winner of his new "game" will get a grand prize. Everyone pick a character to root for and let's get it on!

The world is in shambles. All worlds are in shambles.

When in nothing short of a miracle a soldier in a united galaxy's war for survival stumbles upon a peculiar planet inhabited by equines with incredible abilities, he and his associates are determined to do whatever they can to turn the tide of their own war. But as they spend more and more time on the surface, some things there may turn out... not as foreign as they might have imagined. And not nearly as friendly.

And these poor officials are going to have a really hard time filling immigration forms of a goddamn horse.

Editor of the first chapter: Mind Jack

Just a quick disclaimer: this IS NOT a crossover. The universe MLP interacts with here is entirely my own creation. More and more of the lore will be gradually unfolded as the story progresses.

The Alternate Universe tag is not there because, despite the changes in how magic works (most prominently the dreamscape), this is no 'alternate universe' - it's canon with small adjustments, and I ultimately decided to remove the tag as it only served to unnecessarily confuse people.
More tags will be added as the story progresses.

Also, this is my first fic, so I can't say it won't have issues. As such however, any form of feedback is greatly appreciated, be it positive or negative.

Elián was sent eons before equestria, with forerunner technology, with the passage of time, he learned to control it and acepted with much work his destiny, as a new guardian of the mantle of responsibility, this story will have a focus on the struggle between his humanity and duty.

It all used to be so simple: find a lead, survey the land, and grab a take to tide the Gang over for a few months. But the era of outlaws in the Equestrian Southwest is coming to an end, and it has no tolerance for ponies like Kestrel. Wanted by the law and stealing just to survive, Kestrel will have to take the fate of her band of outlaws into her own hooves and try to give them a good life... or die trying.

A comment-driven Choose Your Own Adventure story inspired by Red Dead Redemption 2. Key events in some chapters are in part influenced by dice rolls, which can be seen in my discord server. Be wary as the dice rolls may spoil current and past chapters.

As this story is different from traditional fare, there are a few caveats going in, inspired by another great CYOA story:

1. The chapters will be kept fairly short, ideally not longer than 1500 words per chapter, barring the choices and author's notes.
2. The vote will always have the last say, even if the choice they have chosen is suboptimal in terms of its effects in-world.
3. The story will end once the fate of the Gang is resolved, though it may end prematurely if Kestrel dies before this can happen.

You can see Kestrel's character sheet, along with important information about the Gang, here.

Special thanks to Ruirik for the cover art.
