This story is undergoing major changes, and just might be integrated with another story of mine. Thus, this one might not be started again until the other is complete. It is by no means going to be cancelled. I made a promise to a colleague, and I intend to keep it. This WILL be completed, just at a later date.
Murphy Dryadson had just left the E3 convention. Or rather, tried to. He kinda got outsmarted by an interdimensional deity. The result? He got sent to a land previously thought to be make-believe, as the character he was dressed as. Complete with a mark on his hand containing a power that grows each passing day. Now he's in the middle of a war and has to figure out how to get home.
Typical Mondays, as always.
This story is not originally mine. Indeed, the author of the story had lost interest in it, but didn't want to see it sitting and rotting like a piece of roadkill on a highway. So, he entrusted it to me. The author is no less than the exceptional writer and word weaver, BlueSun52. Go give him a look (and a follow, if you please), his work is amazing.
Now, to clear some things up.
First, this will not be exactly the same, sadly, as the admins make clear rules against such things, plagiarism and all that. No, I'm afraid it will be quite different. The main character will be the same, of that you can be of sure of, so don't worry about that.
Secondly, if you've any suggestions or comments or, especially, concerns, please notify me. I would greatly appreciate it, and, admittedly, at times I may need it to keep going at a steady pace.
Finally, story tags will be added as the elements of said tags appear, just to add to the mystery.
And that's about it. Now, please enjoy the story.

4300074 That's a good one
Too bad I already am using the name for another one of my stories.
4300127
How about Murphy?
4300276 Hmm, I like it. I'll put it under consideration. Thanks
Um what? You mean Gandalf, right?
4300340 .......
Thanks for mentioning that.

I was going to, but I thought it would be funnier to leave it in.
Kay, you have my attention since I happen to love Dragon age :D
Three things:
1. You're welcome.
2. Show, don't tell. Example:
becomes
3. 1 moon = 1 month
4349146 there are a few cultures that have to whole 1 moon = 1 night thing although they are few in number compared to the ones in the 1 moon = 1 month group. Also if memory serves the moon in equestria is full most if not all of the time (going by what i remember from the show) so it is also possible that 30 moons does in fact equal 30 nights there.
4349377
When I think of "moon" as a unit of time; I think of this.
4349404 yah most people tend to think of the lunar calendar with the whole 1 moon thing lol. Maybe I'm just weird in how i think
Oooo...let the blood flow, let the dragonborn absort the power...let the ...wait...this aint no dragonborn....
4349146 Your welcome and thanks for the advice, I will keep that in mind.
4349377 Argh, I should have realized that the moon was full once a month Science was never my friend. But yeah, since the moon seems to be full everyday in their world I think people can let that slide.
4353164
You should probably specify that in an Author's Note.
4353174 Good point
You, good sir, need an editor/proofreader.
And twillight just randomly knows everything
And then they bucked...............the enemies in the face.
Update Update Update!~ *(dances merrily)*
This have the setting and feeling of a videogame...
4868858 Hmmm, I know what you mean but I can't seem to recall what it is All well, I'll go play some Skyrim and figure it out later

In my opinion, ponies in MLP in real life would look as much like actual ponies as humans do gorillas.
She can't be that heavy. First, she's light enough to fly magic or no magic she must be light and probably has hollow bones. Besides, my first reaction would be to reach up and jab her in the eyes. Then put her into a head lock while bracing her wings shut with my knees. If he wings are damaged from it, too bad. If anyone attempts to physically interfere, my only options to avoid having to fight two opponents is to snap her neck before engaging the new hostile or to smash her head into the ground hard enough to render her unconscious and hope her skull doesn't break. Probably the back of her head, to avoid squishing her eyes (side of head) or breaking her muzzle (front of head).
If you're going to be a little, purple Rules Lawyer, then I'm going to get off on that technicality like a crime lord and ignore you're methods of speech.
That you think something can happen to her means you doubt her ability to deal with any threat. I can see why, she has a track record of failing miserably to protect even herself against every single threat that has come to Equestria. Baring the dumb luck of finding the Elements against Discord and for sealing her sister. Instead of cleansing her with the Elements which we all know she could have done since that is what happened to Luna in the first freaking episode! Celestia either fails or makes everything worse, every time.
Well the Murphy part can't possibly be unfortunate and "Dryad's son" won't be relevant to the story at all. Sarcasm? Of course not!
Somebody wasn't listening.
Maybe, but I'm pretty sure the Elements only work on anomalies like Discord and Nightmare Moon. They probably wouldn't do anything to Chrysalis and Sombra, let alone dragons. Though that sort-of possessed dragon leading them might be affected by it.
You've never fought anything. You just let some magical doohickey do everything. First the Elements, then the Crystal Heart, then the Tree of Harmony. Yeah, you're so gonna die. Sit back and let the hyper-lethal, apex predator, warrior species do the fighting.
He isn't one of your subjects, so you can't give him orders.
Dexterity has nothing to do with speed or reflexes. Good fic, though. Wish the chapters were about twice as long. However, you do need a proof-reader.
If he had climbed up the chain while he had the chance, he could have rammed his flaming sword between it's vertebrae by now, then just stab it through the eye or hollow of its skull with his burning greatsword. Sadly, our "hero" doesn't seem all that bright.
One one hand, "thy"? Really? On the other hand, finally an author who properly uses "than" and "then"! Glad for the update, though!
Slain. Technically, though, anything ending in -ed is past tense and correct grammar. Some slang has become confused with correct grammar. For example, "drank" (drank water) is not actually a word, the correct word is "drunked" (drunked water) or "leapt" should be "leaped". But, honestly, those slangs sound better. Well, more sophisticated than caveman-speak, anyway.
Honestly, though, this whole battle "felt" like something from Dragon Age. Especially the group battle against the dragon with teammates Twilight Sparkle and Rainbow Dash.

No, he used it incorrectly.
5224662 ....Wtf?
5250197 You'll have to find out in the next chapter (And I hope there's a Cole pony too)
Say what?.
why did he not realize and recognize the demons from dragon age you would think dressing up as the inquisitor he would know.
5334119
he doesn't know everything about the game...I believe it wasn't out yet if I remember correctly.
Nice now the real fun starts.
5379134 Yep, this was before the game was months away from release.
Okay, first thing I wondered upon seeing this was what kind of Inquisitor? Guy or girl? Human, elf, or dwarf? Warrior, rouge, or mage?
4871562 not to mention, the dragons aren't evil, just on the opposite side. Major difference.
princess twilight sparkle as navi!
so ponyville is haven?
the castle of the two pony sisters is skyloft?
awsome job keep it up!
5427123 Thank you
I have been waiting for someone to do a crossover like this! Well, not with MLP, but I'll take what I can get!
5445155 Glad that I could make that happen
5334119 dressing up and playing the games are not the same thing ^^
5483819 but the guy has played the previous dragon age's the demons design some what stayed the same in inquisition only adding a few new demons i mean he has faced from the story a pride demon and a rage demon along with shades and they barley chaged them from the previous games
You're lucky he's clearly one of those shounen "super-forgive-everything" protagonists. I'd have broken out and killed you for your betrayal. Death to traitors. At the very least, I would not assist you in defending Equestria, no matter how much you beg, unless Luna's head was delivered to me.
You do not have the right to make any such judgements. You do not have the right to give authority over Murphy. I hope he kills you, wretched traitor.
5606688
jeez, really?
I'm glad you have no power then.
IT'S A DRAGON EQUIP YOUR DRAGON SLAYING RUNE!
