"The first steps on mars were not of astronauts on a rocky wasteland. But of young children on biosynthetic grass" - All Tomorrows

Arthur Smith, regular British Unemployed 28 year old, right?

WRONG!

There is one quality about him that makes him truly a cut above the rest...

That being his luck.

The lottery? He's won it more times than you can count. Gacha games? SSR Pulls using normal tickets every time. Coinflips? Not even a contest!

Everything and anything is always rigged in his favour.

If the odds aren't 0%, it's 100% for him.

One day, he absentmindedly wished to be reborn due to boredom, and his luck responded. He accidentally gets summoned by two Gods into the Heavenly Realm, before getting thrown out and coincidentally landing straight into the body of a recently deceased newborn in Equestria, becoming its host.

Normally being inside the Heavenly Realm would slowly remove memories within a human soul, but "Luckily", all the memories that got erased were random tidbits of trivia and dad jokes he'd heard throughout his lifespan.

The two Gods that summoned him were those on the side of good, therefore they both felt so incredibly bad about Arthur "losing important memories within their life" and decide to grant him blessings...

[YOU HAVE RECIEVED THE BLESSING OF THE GODDESS OF LUCK, "FORTUNA"]

[YOU HAVE RECIEVED THE BLESSING OF THE GOD OF GAMES, "TET"]

Really, could he get ANY luckier?


Gamer story! Main character WILL have a system! Not a lot of the plot is thought out and I'm gonna try and keep it light-hearted whilst developing writing skills for comedy at the same time.

Ponies will one day notice how absurdly lucky this foal is

Fallout 3 moment

lil bro's gonna power scale so hard he'll be as powerful as Celestia at age 5

Hah! Sounds like fun!
but I wonder if the main characters are all gonna be OC or not, since there are no other character tags besides that. :fluttershbad:

Oops, there are gonna be Canon chars, I just forgot to add them 💀

How the hell are you going to manage to write any adversity for him to overcome when he's living life on games journalist difficulty?

I mean fair I always look forward to some good story, but if bro has a mix of Blank’s Luck, Yugi Muto’s Draw Luck, and another dose of luck a la Ladybug Luck I don’t see how he’ll actually have to deal with anything resembling a plot.
I sincerely hope I am wrong and maybe just am misinterpreting things. We’ll see.

Heavily inspired by "A Quiet Runescribe"

So is his luck going to be narratively ironic like Shade's where things work out in a roundabout way that helps him grow? Or just run of the mill Gary Stu everything goes my way luck?

Big question why does it have applejack&mac tag for?:rainbowhuh:

Hyper Luck:

lands 10 consecutive V.A.T. crits.

I hope for an comedic adversary, one where you know they're not going to win, but are amusing nonetheless. A Doofenschmitz or Robby Rotten.

Him being apart of the AJ family is indeed quite lucky, but i wonder what type he'll be. Magic is quite powerful so I'm hoping for him to be a unicorn. but given the family he's in I'm expecting him to be an earth pony which is a lil regrettable but oh well.

I just realized. At some point he's gonna flip a coin, and then immediately get his cutie mark afterwards.

I mean, you probably ain't wrong.

Fuck you mean i already finished readying it all!? I WANT MOAR! (Also this is very good keep it up)

12117321
I’m sure it’ll work out

I've only read the story description so far, so take this section of my comment with a grain of salt, but the premise seems like it may get a bit boring. A main character that can never lose means that there will be literally no struggles for him in the story. Any actual losses will only ever be done for plot reasons and thus would likely feel more akin to a plot hole than anything else. A Gary Stu of maximal strength.

I'll definitely watch this to see if you can pull it off, but it's going to be pretty hard to make this story interesting.


Quick notes for your story description: I recommend looking up how to use -'s and -s. The word it's means it is, and its shows ownership. This is backwards to when it's appended to a noun, where adding 's shows ownership.

Thus, there are a few errors:

He accidentally gets summoned by two God's into ...

This is not showing ownership, there are instead two Gods.

... a recently deceased newborn in Equestria, becoming it's host.

This reads as "becoming it is host." Should be its.

The two God's that summoned him were ...

Same issue as before.

What met my eyes was a cute, wingless, hornless grey foal with bright red hair and heterochromatic eyes, one a shining sharp blue the other a soft mellow yellow.

NO HORN... yea i knew he'd be an earth pony. oh well. The power scale will be for later i suppose.

12118104
I'm hoping he gains the ability to gradually ascend to an alicorn. Maybe he will grow a horn at some point, then a pair of wings later. I'm thinking the gradual part my be because of the gacha system he has... although, he might just outright become an alicorn with it, knowing his luck. Still, it would be interesting for a story to have someone who's body gradually gains more aspects of the other tribes until they are an alicorn. I don't think I've ever seen a story that did that. It's always been a sudden thing.

“We'll come by later today to pick up the kids like usual, have a good day Miss Chrysanthemum,” He was about to leave before my mother scoffed.

When I read that I thought it was Chrysalis being very uncreative with a disguise name but then I realized he was born a pony so that theory is out the window

i am interested in the story thanks to your description

great chapter i do hope they get longer but if not no worries

Hey i hope you give him any fate/stay night weapons because i imagin the stats are the same

"Bloodline", so his mother must have that ability to.

Tha bat winged, scorpion tailed lion is actualy a Manticore.

Your not gonna make celestia incredibly rude and super entitled are you?

12120060
No? I don't think I wrote her as rude nor entitled in this scene...

is the misfortune thing an actual bit? how did the orphanage there not blow up because if him? or is it only his family that's harmed by him.

Okay you did the math wrong there.

One bit is equal to 2.8 British pounds.

That means a Bit is worth MORE than a British Pound, specifically 2.8 British Pounds. And if you go by 1Kg of gold being worth 104000 BP. Then that means 1Kg of gold is equal to 37,142 Bits. Times five means 5Kg of Gold is 185,714 Bits.
BP = British Pound

1Bit = 2.8BP

1Kg Gold = 104000 BP = 37,142.857142857 Bits.

37,142.857142857 × 5 = 185,714.28571429 Bits

Sorry but this really irked me.

12120147
There's a reason why I'm failing math 😭🙏

I'll fix it now mb.

Also dw about it! I would rather be wrong and have the math be corrected early than be corrected after I post 100 chaps and have to edit all the "1.5 million bits" in them to "185714 bits" lol

I wonder if the mc is going to be saying “everypony” or everybody. I hope it’s everybody.

i'm guesing the Crimson have true sight eyes, but use or looking at powerfull things (like a sun goddess) caused them to degrade. i'm also guessing its sliver's luck that his awaked at B- instead of Ss+ rank to stop him going blind, mad or both

Más que suerte parece que las cosas pasaran por "necesidades del guión" ya qué lo que estoy entendiendo es que tiene "hyper suerte" si así lo requiere la trama y no "tento tanta suerte que la palabra desgracía no existe en mi diccionario", si tuviera que compararlo en concepto con alguien sería y debería ser Gladstone Gander, primo de Donald en DuckTales.
Seguire la historia por curiosidad de las alteraciones del MLP que piensas hacer y el como desarrollaras la historia en general, tiene buena pinta, habra que ver si sigue así.

Sounds awfully like Chrysalis to me... I don't trust anyone with a name longer than my time in this planet.

Still as British sounding as ever.

It's so joever for this blud. imagine being br*ish

Would be sad I Mama Pone ende up dead.
