Chicken Goddess


The unreal is more powerful than the real... because it's only ideas, concepts, beliefs and fantasies that last. Stone crumbles. Wood rots. And people, well... they die. ~Chuck Palahniuk, Choke

Twilight Sparkle, 3 years before she would travel to Ponyville, woke up one morning to a blue box floating over her head.

"Congratulations, you have been chosen to be [The Gamer]!"

Bereft of her normal, mundane life, Twilight decides to utilize her new abilities to their fullest. Her entire view of reality had been shifted to that of a game, her body changed to something reminiscent of a video game character, and she can only wonder why.

Unfortunately, something lurks within the shadows trying to take advantage of her newfound power. The world its garden and the universe its kingdom, The Man in Black knows only one thing: Babylon will fall, and everything else with it.

(Crossover between The Gamer Manhwa and My Little Pony. Elements of Cthulhu mythos).

Certainly, I plan on having her become skilled in a number of things. I also have a few ideas which will break the mold of usual Gamer fics.

Thank you, I'm having fun writing it. It's unfortunately not edited, and reading through it there are many things I can do to improve it. I'm gonna ask around for an editor or two not to look for mistakes, but to offer sentence structure and work flow advice to make the story more enjoyable.

She'll get them back, don't worry. And she'll get a few more while she's at it.

For some reason when I looked at the title I thought this was a Civilzation(5) crossover :derpyderp1:

8135592 That's funny, because after I published this I went back and thought the same thing.

Well, im curious as to whether or not Celestia nows about these abilities, and if there are others like in the original comic


.... and pinkie being on of them makes sense

I too write my stories around the ancient Gardens of Babylon. Perhaps we can speak sometime.

The rest of the stats were admirable and necessary, but [Luck] changed everything . What practical uses did it have? No, what practical uses didn’t it have? Luck, Twilight decided, was necessary.

I feel a compulsion to direct you to https://forums.spacebattles.com/threads/rwby-the-gamer-the-games-we-play-disk-five.341621/page-103#post-17989702. And like that, a weight seems to have lifted off my shoulders.

On a more on-topic note, I'm already hooked. Then again, that's easy for most Gamer fic to do for me, but I'm particularly looking forward to finding out more about the magic paths listed under the wisdom description and how said Stat affects them. Well, that and what/where (/who) Babylon might be. Keep up the good work! :heart:

My issue is that I've never seen a gamer fic which uses a luck stat for anything besides grinding money and that bothers me. I've seen one fic which plays off the concept of a character being blessed by luck and therefore has everything go his way and it's absolutely hilarious. Besides that, though, I've seen absolutely nothing.

Realistically, though, I was just planning on using it as an excuse for better item drops and playing off some comedic stuff. The story will focus on other stuff, and Twilight wasn't going to grind the luck stat very much (or at all). I'm debating several methods to allow her to increase her abilities, but I keep returning to the concept of having her learn blacksmithing and enchanting so she can make armor and accessories which both boost stats as well as increase grinding rate. We'll see what happens, I have the second chapter almost complete but I've been really busy and haven't been able to finish it.

Thanks for the review, I hope to continue this and see how interested people become with it.

Glad to see that chapter two is up. Happy to read that you plan to update a bit more frequently in the future

Can you give the link to the fic where the character was blessed by luck?

This is really good... Like really good...
Way better then mine, anyway. Then again, I can only muster the motivation to write after consuming 3 metric tons of unrefined crack, so that might have something to do with it.

Now, normally I wouldn't be bugging the author about updates, but since he says it helps...

More please!

Did Steel really walk into it like a dunce? Wow.

More please, this rocks. And motivates to write one myself... but just copying others never works out for me. Does anyone know any other Gamer Twilight fics?
