The vampires of the Red Court are vile and cunning creatures, they attempt to conquer or destroy everything around them. Now a small group of the vampires have stumbled across a new world to take for their own, but they did not come alone. Wizard Harry Dresden and Knight of the Cross Michael Carpenter chased after the creatures and now find themselves trapped in the same world the vampires are slowly taking. They must lend their experience to the local inhabitants if they are to fight off the growing horde, and the new Red King.
I will explain the Dresden history as it becomes relevant to the story. So it is not necessary to have read the Dresden books to understand what's going on.

Takes place before the season three finale of MLP, and sometime after the events of the White Night novel. So no Princess Twilight or Winter Knight Harry, sorry. At the time of writing, I haven't read Cold Days or any novel onward, so please no spoilers in the comments.
I do not own any of the Dresden/MLP characters.
Another Dresden crossover. I will place this under close scrutiny. Time to read.
Edit: I've read it now and it's quite quite good. I'm interested to see if he ever has an accidental soulgaze and how he measures up in power to twilight. I mean yes she is powerful but damn harry pulls some epic magic in a magically weak environment. It now occurs to me that you have potentially multiplied Harry's magical strength by at least ten and more like one hundred. Seeing as he has all the subtlety of a bull in a china shop home on earth I can forsee epic property damage ensuing.
I said sulkily glancing down at my beans and found myself absently wondering, ‘Is this really what cowboys ate constantly?’
Liked and Faved at this line right here.
Oh nice awakening there Harry. I have to say this is getting more than a few chuckles out of me.

I will not put Sparkling Vampony jokes in this fanfic. I was extremely tempted, in fact that was the first actual joke that came to mind when i got the idea for this, but it's been done to death.
788839
And miss out on Harry's snarky in-battle comments?
788888
oh no, I've got some fun ideas for those.
788899
FIRE THE SNARKY CANNON!
Alright tracked but just one thing. I don't believe Michael has ever sworn, as Harry constantly refuses to in his presence.
789348
Did i make him swear? I don't remember that.
789622 Whoops! Mistook "Darn" for "Damn" "R"s and "N"s always look like an "M" to me.
I am loving this considering you write it like it should be written. Nice work 4.75/5
okay this is great. Please give me and all the other viewers more of this please?

With pleasure, but I'll tend to write less on the weekends, as that's when the majority of my hours are at work. sorry...
What a threat that was. I wonder if he is going to come to the conclusion that Celestia is a massive troll.
If you haven't decided yet, i think you should side with Trollestia rather than incompetent leader Celestia. It just seems like that personality melds better with Harry's as well as being a little more realistic. Living for thousands of years with near omnipotence would most likely cause a case of extreme cynicism. Tia probably just hides it well, masking it with her natural benevolent nature. Also interested in what Harry will see when he soulgazes the Princess, i believe they will have a lot more in common then either of them would have originally thought. Its 12:05 and i have to be at work in 7 hours, Private Insomnia reporting for duty on the USS procrastination.
Damn, so used to reading multiple chapters at once on fics, i start here and BAM! Cut of from the sweet tit that is your beautifully woven yarn.

Uhm, thank you... I think.
Another good chapter, just spotted one thing
"Very well Twilight, such a shame tough.
Should be though.
848089
oh dang, i thought i got that already, hang on... and fixed.
Hooray for another chapter!
I'm glad someone finally did a Dresden crossover and i think you are doing a good job of portraying how Harry really is. Keep up the good work!
On another note who here is a Harry Dresden fan?

This is actually the third one that I have read, it seems that unlike Halo crossovers all of the Dresden crossovers are of good quality.
I was wondering does Dresden still need his blastig rod/staff for casting some stuff or are they now completely obsolent because of his horn?
oh ho ho. This is beginning to get really good. Please push out more when you can
Fantastic read, can't wait for the next chapter.

Sadly it might be a couple of days, I've got a physics test on Wednesday that i need to cram for. After that though I'll get back to writing.
So is Drez a commander huh? Cool commander Dresden huh nice ring to it I think.
Still a good read. But I always have trouble with the type of fan-fictions that expose anyone (not brony enough to say pony) of the characters to sadistic levels of violence...
869657
I can understand that, but that is actually one of my favorite things about the Dresden books. The books expose the characters, mainly Dresden, to extreme physical and emotional trauma and then shows how they either cope with the trauma or try to ignore it. This in my opinion creates such strong characters that you could only get through breaking down the character first.
@ Applechip
Certainly, I enjoy Dresden as well. And I guess it's more of a problem trying to accept said breakdown of character happens to totally innocent ponies.
Look at that face! And then you tell her that pony eating monsters born of pure evil are after her friends.
See you broke her.
866247 Best of luck on your test. We can easily wait for the next chapter until after you passed your exam.

It'd probably be a lot easier to study if random ideas and scenes for the story didn't pop into my head every ten minutes. The only way I seem to be able to get the thoughts out of my head is by writing them down.
I just can't get the voices to stop.
Your mission, should you choose to accept it, would be to become Tom Cruise.
I must say I am loving this story. You pull all the characters off really well, the only thing I have noticed is taht Harry doesn't seem quite snarky enough. I didn't expect him not to insult Luna when he met her.
I read it before it was even posted
Also, I really like the way you gave the mane 6 roles that fit really well with their personalities, but also makes them a very well rounded adventuring party.
(With Michael, you have 2 heavy mages, a bard/illusion master, 2 heavy fighters, an acrobat/ninja, a healer, and a ranger/sniper)
Yes. Just yes.
I see that this is about to get very interesting. I'm really looking forward to it.
5/5, enjoy
Give AJ a whip and enchant it with holy energy and you'll have the Vampirekiller!
Fantastic. I'll admit the beginning felt a touch rough to me, but I kept reading and have found myself rather captivated.
Can't wait for the next update.

Yea this is my first fanfic ever, I'm surprised that it's gathered the followers that it has. I do intend to re-edit the first bit soon, mainly for grammar issues though. Oh and the next chapter is being pre-read now, so hopefully I'll have it up sometime tomorrow.
NOW!!
I-if you don't mind...
Tear it limb from limb, rip it's soul out, burn that soul, and then burn the corpse.
Pinkie borrowed Amy Rose's mallet just for this!
I just realised that I would be able to get first post on all of these chapters with meaningful comments if I could ever be bothered. Ah well, too busy replaying Skyrim at the moment to bother. And for future reference I suggested that the mallet be changed to a large bronze herring.
Why is there always property damage?! Damnit Dresden, get it together.
