This story is interesting. Hope to see more of it.
placed*?
isn't it poured or something?
his* goal?
Interesting. I do not know who Gerard is but I'm willing to learn. Can you gimme a link to the original?
6091978
Thanks for those catches. I'll look into them.
I'll link you to the original tomorrow, it was much more ambitious than mine.
Gerald, oh He'll be fun. The next chapter will be a lot more about him personally.
6091978
Link as promised.

6100057 Is this YOUR rewrite? Why do I mistake you on the original author?
6100122
This is MY rewrite. The original chapter is mostly intact, but the other displaceds will not make an appearance. Elements from Total Eclipse's story will be present, but adjusted for the new narrative direction. Total Eclipse was going to do a rewrite, but found his idea too ambitious.
6100279 I feel that. I however don't get how Displaced stories work. I mean I know the deal... but must this connect with any over-arching lore or something?
6100530
Oh, that's what you mean. There is an over- arching lore, but it mainly only concerns stories focusing on characters directly involved with Gods and other high-tier universal/ multiversal beings. The only thing us small stories really have deal with is being 'displaced' by something and coming to Equestria with different than they were before.
6103574
I don't follow. For example I wanted to do the reverse... I mean displace a pony or two ((the princesses)) and give an identity to the merchant. Now whether or not the merchant would displace more people or whether I'd mention him even doing that that's another thing. I mean... the merchant could have multiple idenitities... ones that one may not know the other.
6103690
I'm unsure if a 'Displaced' story with the premise of a displaced pony would fall into the moderation's idea of canon. As for the Merchant, there should be a thread about him and other displaced creators in the Displaced forums. I can't really comment on him, seeing as i'm avoiding him as much as possible.
6103721 Can you gimme some links to sources where I can look out for these stuff? And btw I don't think I care too much about this if I ever start doing that fic.
6104255
Here you go. It's pretty easy to avoid anything you don't want to include.

6107415 Right. Thanks.
Good chapter.
The plot thickens. Hope the next chapter come soon to know more about Gerald's past with the Princesses.
So he never was from our world to begin with?
Wait, are you saying he destroyed their souls? Completely? There's no more left of them? Nothing by an echo in Gerald's mind?
6139322
He's from earth. Our earth, I can't say. I haven't thought of if I wanted him to be from a mirror image of the real world.
6139325
You'll see later. Whether the truth is better or worse, I'll let the readers decide.
6138564
I am a dreadfully slow writer, but I'll do my best.
6140871 is he an Earth's Mage(something from the group Human Magic: humans who knew magic before they came to Equestria)?
6145905
What I've decided (recently) is that Gerald is from an Earth within Magic: The Gathering's multiverse. He didn't know even existed before Equestria even though it does exist on his earth. In the Human Magic group he'd probably be classified under "Magic Granted through Dealings with Magical Beings", seeing as his form and magical affinities are because of the being who displaced him.
to be*
I forsee love story between those two.
As for your mistakes Chrysalis... "Mistakes done twice, aren't of mare wise."
6149255
Thanks for the catch.
No comment.
6149532 I knew it!!!!!!! Awesomesauce.
6148815 ah, yes, I remember MtG's rules: the our world is one like any other within the Multiverse. Some worlds possess so much magic that its mages are liken to small gods. Others possess so little its mages are non-existent(though magic exists on all worlds with living things, for it is a requirement of life). However, every sapient being possesses a small chance of being born with a planeswalker's spark, which, upon receiving sufficient trauma, can ignite, transforming the mortal into a planeswalker, the only being capable of surviving the Blind Eternities, and traveling between worlds. I assume our world is on the low end of the spectrum? You know, even on a world with as little mana as ours, it one could theoretically gather it through blood sacrifice, as a being's lifeforce works just as well as any other type of mana...
6150376
Yep, Gerald's earth is a pretty low-end world when it comes to the Leylines of mana, but magic is possible there. That is were the myths, legends, and such come from. They forgot about magic in the past, but magic still manifests as miracles, disasters, and strange phenomena. Small groups of people still know about magic, but useable amounts of mana are in such a rarity that those groups definitely hoard it all for themselves.
6153142 ah. And there's the blood sacrifice, right? I also want to ask, can you hurt demons without magic of some sort? I mean, in-game the point's kinda mot, because everything but artifacts are magical copies bound to your will, but in a story like this? It's kinda important.
6154315
All occultism is legitimate on his earth, even blood sacrifice.
Well, I use both prerevision and post-revision summoning as I feel each should or would be applied. Prerevision summoning is a mage literally pulling a being through the aether and forcing them under a geas in order to control them. Or the creature agreed to be an ally. Post-revision summoning is a mindless magical clone created based on another creature (Wizards has not said that any one way is the only way to do it).
And hurting demons without magic depends on the kind of demon and where they are from. In general, yes, you can hurt demons without magic. If you couldn't, Grixis would have stomped Bant even worse than they did.
And as for this story, Gerald is more of a prerevision mage when it comes to summoning. Most of his summons are undead creatures or spirits which he himself crafts, reanimates, or communes.
6157350 ah. I see. Though I have to mention, does it really make sense that you can hurt a demon without magic? Demons are manifestations of Black Mana, and physical objects do not alter the mana flow. Either way, I'd love to live on his world.
6157801
Most demons are manifestations of black mana, they are not of true flesh. But they are still physical beings who can be injured and killed through physical means.
The best comparison I can think of are Hellspawn and Demons from Image comics. Made from ectoplasm. Non holy, non magical damage is mostly ineffective because their are created from supernatural energy, but you can still wound and kill them through mundane weaponry, it's just ridiculously difficult.
From what I've read, they are distinctly different from spirits and ghosts which usually NEED magic to be killed. But the lines do intersect, like with the Oni from Kamigawa who are both demons and spirits lorewise.
Like my other post said, I'll apply M:TG logic how I interpret it. My interpretation is that demons, like other powerhouses exist on a sliding scale ranging from the OP unkillables like Pit Lords, to the pathetic woebringers.
Interesting backstory for Gerard. Hope to see how he deals/interacts with the girls.
Unacceptable. If Gerald does not end up torturing and murdering Chrysalis I will be very mad.
6160241 alright. Quick question, do imps count as demons?
6245522
I have no idea... gotta look that up.
6251916 alright.
On rule #4, do you mean direct violation, or just violation in general. e.g. Gerald sets trap, Chrysalis springs it,
and on rule 2, is there a timetable? If there isn't then what's stopping him from waiting a couple thousand years?
6396563
I cannot fully answer those questions without some possible spoilers, but I can say that Rule 2 is taken as something of an absolute.
If Chrysalis ordered him to destroy Canterlot, he'd attack Canterlot until he either destroyed it, or it ceased to be regardless of how long it could take.
6397983 Does it matter what he uses? e.g Bubbles to destroy Canterlot
And building on my earlier comment about rule #4, couldn't he just, I don't know, set a trap on, say, Chrysalis's door? Would that trigger the geas?
When you make rules, Chrysalis, make sure you don't make loopholes as well.
i would like to see in a future chapter, Chrysalis power ring is lost or stolen and the lich gains full control over himself and is no longer a pawn but instead a King!
Nice pick of Nekusar
So... Will there be any more?
It's nice to see this story updated, hope to see more in the future.
8010336
Thanks for sticking around. Glad to see someone is still interested.
8010456 No prob.
Looking forward to the next chapter, whenever that'll be. Also, I was always more of an Oloro than a Nekuzar
Update?
