The Three Pony Tribes have now settled Equestria, and Discord hasn’t yet come, another country having “hyper” advanced technology for the time has been having civil unrest and war for the past century, the city nation of New Albion. The Fall takes place over fifty years to happen starting with the Bonfire of the Dolls, the riots that damaged most of the city during the Steam Age, through the ten year Civil War during the Diesel Age, till the Nuclear decimation of the Eight Districts.
The civil war of New Albion had been raging for ten long years, with the Rebels and the Government Forces making slow progress on either side.
The Government’s Freedom Corp had fallen with the only surviving super soldier being John O’brian, who has now turned against the Government Forces.
The Battle of Crier’s Blvd was going awry, the Rebels had gotten hold of the MCG, the Government’s radio broadcaster to send info and orders directly to their soldiers, and were broadcasting some song that is brainwashing the city.
The thief Constance O’brian, daughter to John and the cause of his turn, sings a song that breaks the spell of the other song, releasing the city from it’s hold.
When the soldiers come to, some drop their guns and leave, but most begin to move to capture Constance. But John and his sister Jackie defend Constance while she escapes.
Jackie is shot and killed sending John into a rampage. He is killed but not before taking the Government Forces with him.
The Rebels over run the Parliament, but can’t decide who shall be the new leader and turn on each other.
With no Central Government the eight Districts become separate Governments each wary of the others.
The Voodoopunks, the ones who used the MCG to try and end the war with their Songs of the Dead, begin reemerging after having been in hiding for the past thirty years when the city went in to Martial Law after the Bonfire of the Dolls riots.
Some of the many separate groups of Voodoopunks throughout the city decide to leave the now ruined city of New Albion and into the land that is Equestria.
For good or for bad they left within the next decade New Albion becomes just a crater from the Nuclear testing of the Eight Districts against each other.
New Albion had sat to the North West to the land of Equestria. The refugees and survivors of New Albion had made their way toward the South into Equestria.
They had originally planned to rebuild their civilization in the land of Equestria but found that others had settled it already, namely the Three Pony Tribes.
They began to come into the “primitive” towns and villages of Equestria, having a hard time making ends meet they had expected to be kicked out and to fend for themselves. But Equestria having been built on Friendship and unity they were helped into the societies of the ponies already there.
Due to having come from the higher technological civilization of New Albion they had to learn how to live in the primitive medieval society of Equestria.
Not long after the citizens of New Albion had finally begun to fit in to Equestrian life Discord and chaos arrived. In an attempt to protect their new found home the Albions began to use the technology of their home land and the Voodoopunk rituals to try and drive the chaos out.
But their use of these was seen as evil and chaotic by the natives of Equestria and were once again driven into hiding within their own homes.
Since then the Voodoopunks have grown hidden within the slowly advancing Kingdom of Equestria, unlike New Albion which was built on technology, Equestria was built on magic and friendship.
Three generations of “pure” Voodoopunks have come and gone within Equestrian borders. They have finally decided that now is the the time to show themselves to the world.
They had even learned how to prolong life, and had the knowledge of making Dolls, spirit possessed mechanical mannequins, to place the spirit of one of their dead members so they can be living again.
These pure Voodoopunks have evolved different than any normal pony. They look like Zebras with neon green stripes in Earth, Pegasus, and Unicorn forms.
As well all those who study the ways of the Voodoopunks can use magic even without a horn. This was one of the things that the Equestria of old feared as evil was that all the newcomers could use this darker magic.
The Dolls have been helping to keep the history and knowledge of the Voodoopunks alive over the past thousand two hundred years since they left New Albion.
Some of the Dolls have survived through the Bonfire of the Dolls, where they were the target for destruction for an unrelated incident back in New Albion, making them over a thousand years old.
We come the the 3rd generation Voodoopunk by the name of Steam Alchemist, a unicorn with a spiky short mane and tail thats rust colored with iron colored tips. Living within the Voodoopunk Everfree Forest Hideout near Ponyvile. He and his followers as the strongest and most devote of the modern Voodoopunks, where most other hideouts consist of mostly converts from the cites and towns around Equestria.
Even though the Everfree Hideout does have converts it’s mostly made up of decedents and relatives of past Voodoopunks.
Steam Alchemist plans to make to journey into the nearby Ponyvile to finally expose the Voodoopunks to the modern pony world. He believes the land of Equestria is finally coming generally close to where the Voodoopunks had first appeared in relation to the technology used. They hope that their Dolls are perceived as either toys or automatons rather then resurrected dead. But what he doesn’t know is that the new Princess Twilight might as well be interested rather then scared of the Voodoopunks. What will be the reaction of the citizens of Ponyvile to this new visitor.
