Summary of Meadow's Ford important ponies and personages.
Meadow's Ford
Current State
The town is help by the Gryphon mercenary band lead by Cross.  The contract for the town expired "today" in story.  It's unknown if she is holding the town or looting it or what's going on in town.  The party has been out of the town for about four days down trapped inside "The Facility" located under the mountains marking Equestria's southern border.

Notable Meadows Ford Gryphon Mercenaries
Crosswind(Female Gryphon) Leader of the Mercenaries, everyone just calls her Cross thanks to her brusque nature and short temper  
Thornton (Male Gryphon) Crosswind's second in command, spends most of his time running her errands and staying out of her sight when possible. Goes by Thorn
Matilda(Matty) (Female Gryphon) Gryphon Mercenary who had a one night stand with Back Draft and has become the party go between Cross and the rest of the Gryphons.  

The city population is currently being used as a labor force by the TC bots running the Royal Experimental Advisory Depot, normally refereed to simply as "The Facility" by the internal arcana-crystal robots who kept it ready for operations.  The city population fled the twin threats of something that looked like similar to the Burning Mare dragging along a mile wide front of Pink Cloud while the Burning Mare herself was chasing some Pony in the town.  Deciding to simply clear out for a day to let both threats pass the town by they had the misfortion of straying to close to the Facility in such numbers the TC robots running the Facility decided to scoop up the whole town to dig tunnel network for some reason.  It's been ten plus day's for them doing back breaking work turning big rocks into smaller rocks.  Only the shear number of roboponies and level of internal defenses has presented escape and had until recently prevented all riots.  Most of the town ponies are scared and working just hoping things will get better for them.  Except for a few of them they have no idea the party has found the town's ponies but is currently just as helpless as them to report things to Cross on the outside.

Notable Meadow's Ford Residents
Spring Tea(Female Unicorn):Mayor of Meadow's Ford and direct descendant of Meadow himself or so Meadow insisted she was his when he was still alive.
Doc Bones(Male Ghoul Unicorn):Meadow's Ford resident Doctor and the town's only Ghoul
Sapphire Pendant (Female Earth Pony):Meadow Ford's touch of high class and possibly shady past.  On first name basis with every single caravan operator within a hundred miles of Meadow's Ford.  One of three traders in Meadow's Ford
Bishop (Male Gryphon):Meadow's Ford resident fixit and repair gryphon, had two assistants who helped him keep the various civic machines such as irrigation and indoor plumping running.  also did a side business in high explosives, One of three traders in Meadow's Ford
Stainless Strut (Male Earth Pony): Building inspector was his official title, foreman was his real title.  Along with keeping Meadow's Ford on firm foundations he handled the town's job board and request jar.  If a hinge needed to be redone or a lonely caravan guard wanted someone to help warm the bed it was Strut who could find somepony to fix the problem.  for  One of three traders in Meadow's Ford
Strong in the Hoof (Male Buffalo): Official representative of the Buffalo tribes of the South River to Meadow's Ford.  In reality he's more of an informal foal sitter and story teller who mind has begun to go.  When the town left Strong in the Hoof was enjoying a day by the river while his son saw to his ambassador duties.  Has stayed with the town reasoning that as the town must return some day, it would look bad if the official ambassador was not there when they did return.

Tollway
A collection of buildings under and around a highway overpass bridge to the South East of Meadow's Ford. Currently Backdraft is helping the town recover from an unusual radar attack. Tollway has less than forty ponies all told not counting temporary residents as Caravan's pass through. While Tollway is self sufficient in growing it's own food, mending it's own problems and brewing it's own booze it's primary export is a quality place to sleep and relative safety for passing caravans. Heated baths and clean sheets are expensive but after weeks on the road most will pay for this temporary pleasure. The other point of interest about Tollway is that it is less than thirty years old. Holly Bloom settled here setting up her rough Inn opposite Dusty Quartz and Mural's little shacks and grew it with her own hooves and her body as 40% of the town population is directly related to Holly herself either as "mama" or "grandmama"

Notable Tollway Residents
Dusty Quartz (Male Unicorn):Former mayor of Tollway and the only fatality in the recent raider attack.
Mural (Male Donkey):Trader of Tollway and operator of Mural's Fine Finds for anyone who ever wanted to buy rugs, grenade launchers and canned food from the same shack
Bernard (Male Gryphon):Town drunk. He's been drinking himself in a hole for several years now after something made him settle in Tollway. It's know he has caps because he almost never take any contract to guard caravans anymore. But where he keeps the caps or how he came by them no one can say.
Holly Bloom (Female Earth Pony):Town harridan and head of the Holly Clan
Holly Blossom (Female Earth Pony): Bloom's second daughter and current owner and proprietor of the Inn
Holly Frost (Male Earth Pony) Bloom's third son and town repair pony. Mostly repairs by yelling and swearing until it works
Holly Bean (Male Earth Pony) Bloom's first son and town doctor pony. His doctoring came from books and hooves on experience on ponies who could not wait to see Doc Bones in Meadow's Ford
Mint Holly (Female Earth Pony) Blooom's youngest daughter and Town guard.

That's the two main groups plus Tollway, we also have to cover... The Blood Wings, Chalk, the Tribals, Stable 39, the Black Tails the rest of the Buffalo, Mr Enterprise, Doctor Bright Eyes and of course Theta, Rho and what is a pony but a mind made of meat?

The last post:

Regardless of if we're playing tonight or not, some things have come up and we're picking cotton a week earlier than expected. And since we're trying to get done as fast as we can that means we're working whenever we can for as long as we can.

What I'm saying is that I'm working today and we're probably going to end up working till around 8 PM if not later. If we're playing tonight I'll try to make it if I can and I'll let ya'll know if I'm working any other Sundays, but I can't promise I'll be in a roleplaying mind when I get back from those days.

its cool bruh, likely SK is going to be the main player tonight since its a good stopping point.


Edit: If adder's internet is up

My internet will be up, my will may not be. 50% done, moving truck to move in area. Move in truck not unloaded yet.
Hate life

Alert
Session canceled , I say again canceled.  It's 1910 here and we JUST finished moving furniture, everything is in piles. It's a madhouse here Sorry but I won't even make a two hour delayed session to much left to do.

Again sorry guys, I'm open to a makeup session any day but Tuesday

Also internet is not on here

It's ok Adder.

Also, I had asked around to find if there were any topics that should not be discussed during the sessions. Most of them are a tad too high level concepts for offensive folks to touch, so I won't bother posting them. No more screensharing from Obs by Adder requested.

Hey guys if we ever need an extra hand in a session I have a friend who really wants to join up with us. I'm sure he would like to sub as well if that is needed. I've been filling her in on the sessions so she knows what is up.

If not she totally has dibs in the next FO:E roleplay going on.

Once I finish settling (ETA 18 hours from now) I'll see what I can do, Meadow's Ford has been running for almost a year now and it's always been about one person to many.

How are we all looking for tomorrow?

Looking good on my end

StoneSlinger88 wrote:How are we all looking for tomorrow?

I should be fine.

Delay of game 2030 EST start time for Meadow's Ford. We typically don't start till 2030 so I don't think this will seriously affect play time.

heh, i'll start the call

Quick summary. Nobody died, I was able to get most of us new weapons. Good session.

Long delay updates tomorrow, getting some sleep, walking the dog and setting down to write. I have exactly three boxes to unpack and wall art to hang.
