Hail Moosiden!


So a bunch of my friends and I play a My Little Pony Pathfinder game every week. This week, we're in the middle of the country next to Equestria trying to find a cure for a party member with horn rot (The GM is following It's a Dangerous Business... so if you've read that fanfic, we're dealing with the Glidale portion).

We have a new player this week who we need to join the party. He's a Multiclassed Ranger/Rogue zebra with a large-size repeating crossbow strapped to his back. The party is in the middle of a battle with a stampede led by this HUGE fucking dragon (we're all level 3 right now).

Our alchemist (me!) is in the middle of preparing this gigantic kegbomb that we are going to drop down the dragon's throat when, out of nowhere, this explosive ballista bolt whizzes past the dragon and embeds itself in the wall we are defending. The fuse is still going so our gunslinger shoots out the flame, but leaves the wick intact. Zartan (the zebra) has a repeating crossbow so the next round he fires it again and does a 19/20 supercrit. Dragon is instantly down 3/4 of it's HP. This is the first attack Zartan ever does in the game.

We drop the kegbomb and it, along with our two moose barbarians, scares the stampede away. Solitare (our gunslinger) manages to hit the dragon in the eyes and I tanglefoot bomb the crap out of him so he can't move. Zartan fires his last ballista shot and takes the jaw off the dragon, killing it.

It took 3 rounds only to kill a fucking red dragon with explosives! And Zartan's backstory is that he hunts dragons and with that 19/20 supercrit he just validated the entire thing. The game tonight was AMAZING!
