How does the game work?

I’ve tried looking online for some answers, but it’s leaving me very confused. As far as I can tell, there is a dice system and you make your own character. I know Ogres and Oubliettes is supposed to be based off of that game, but I’ve never played it myself and I want to be as accurate as possible when I’m writing my scene.

Greetings...

For those of you following my stories I must hang my head in shame. The marginal amount of work I have done is by no means enough for a chapter on either. To make matter worse is this blog which clearly informs you that my creative thoughts are not even going in that direction... shame on me

So What Am I Doing?

Making a world/setting...

So today while i was off work and with my friends, I was playing Dungeons and Dragons 3.5 edition and all was going great today. We hit the point to where we could prestige and go into prestige classes. I chose to become a dragon rider from one of the off brand books the DM allowed, and by am I having fun with my juvenile Blue Dragon.

Welcome back...

Today I just plan to talk about ponies. As much as I like Equestria's Changelings and most of the feline races of Everglow I can't focus on them and ignore the ponies; The ponies are the focal point much like the map of Equestria has Equestria in the middle with everyone else around the sides. Though given that it is a map of a country one can be forgiven for providing so little detail on non pony locations. (has the planet even been officially named?)

Lately I have been looking for a new campaign to join and a new group to play with and I am willing to try something new even though I greatly prefer the Pathfinder system. By chance I discovered Ponyfinder and began to wonder if I should try it. It seems like the perfect combination for me and a good opportunity to make friends both in the DnD and the Mlp community.

However I would first like to know what you guys think about it. Have you played it? Was it good?

So, a few days back, a friend of mine invoked me to post on my Tumblr blog about a certain infamous player I knew of from the halcyon days of running Dungeons and Dragons in college. I spent most of my free time yesterday typing out the post, and, having finished, I figured you guys might also enjoy it. So, without (much) further ado, I present to you the legend of Gene, Destroyer of Games.

Lo, what fool calls me forth? What boon do you seek?

Ok, this is a bit nerdy, but after some timing, I was able to get 2 of my IRL friends and my brother to join a DND campaign I had in mind. I was a bit nervous, as it was my first time, but this is more or less the highlights for this session.

-Introducing everyone to the world, with them entering the tavern where everyone would introduce each other.

-The 3 players:

Real life happened... and is still happening.

oh well

So I was on the group about changelings and Chrysalis and I was struck with inspiration on how to set my world up. The things I want is ponyfinder changelings to be mlpfim changelings and a reason for the ponies to be where they are and in the reduced numbers I envision. I feel I have just what I need...

What did I have?

So I thought today would be a good day for happier news. Goodness knows there's enough negativity in the world and drama around horse websites. I also just wanted to let people know about a secret project I've been working on.

So let's talk RPG's, specifically Pen and Paper RPG's.

I've been at them for about, ooh, 4-5years started with D'n'D 4th ed, and moved onto Pathfinder, since then that's generally what I've stuck with outside of Traveller, DFRPG, Warhammer 40K, a couple of homebrew systems here and there, and a very short-lived foray into BESM/Pendragon (DM just dropped it due to wibbly-wobbly timey-wimey shenanigans).

I'm back with another round of D&D-ifying characters from MLP, this time, it's the royals of Equestria, and the Legends of Harmony, who are pretty much D&D characters in Equestria's past if you think about it. Same rules as last time, and leaving out the equipment, since I don't want to make them too technical.

Celestia

Race: High Elf (Sun)

Race: Cleric (Light Domain)

Abilities:
Strength-10
Dexterity-10 (+2 from race)
Constitution-12
Intelligence-14 (+1 from race)
Wisdom-15

You know what I feel like when someone introduces a new house rule for a game, doesn't tell me about it, and then penalizes me for breaking a rule I didn't know?

Seriously though, it's not a good thing so today I'm going to talk a little bit about guidelines on house rules.

No negative race traits. Like in Baldur's Gate 1 and 2, and even Icewind Dale a dwarf for example would have minus 1 dexterity, but plus 1 constitution and get a saving throw bonus. However, they may find Gauntlets of Dexterity to fix such an issue. Or even a tome to increase their ability scores. But not in Baldur's Gate 3. I find this sort of thing cheapens the world. Races have strengths and weaknesses. Dwarf great defense, elf better dexterity but less constitution, half-orcs good strength

So I tend to enjoy episodes that feature Discord. He has a flare to his character that's kind of like an twisted version of "Aladdin's Genie". It was also nice to see some insight as to what Big Mac and Spike do when the mane six is out doing some sort of things.

Hey guys! I'm signal boosting David Silver's latest Kickstarter project to bring ponies to Dungeons and Dragons Fifth Edition!

If you like tabletop rpgs, please give it a look!

Which is great for me, since I've been jonesing for a new D&D game. So far, I only have a premise down for my wizard.

A mix of Trixie and Starlight Glimmer. I have to bump them up my pony list after the end of Season six. Quite the team they make, rescuing the Mane Six, the Royalty, and more or less anypony important without the use of magic.

In the beginning there was a Game Master, and over the course of seven days he created a perfect world full of intrigue, villains, heroes, and magic. Then on the seventh day he invited Players to come and create Player Characters to act as their avatars in the Game Master's perfect world. Within three hours the once perfect world was destroyed by these supposed heroes going on a murder hobo rampage. To the NPC's of this world, this was the first sign that the end was to come.
