SteelEagle Posted September 21, 2016 Report Share Posted September 21, 2016 EPIC has a problem. EPIC Agent Pathfinder went to Neighpon to investigate the rumored Door to the Abyss to verify whether or not WRAITH has 'opened' it. She has failed to report in and EPIC has decided to launch a rescue operation. Since the Neighponese government is not aware of the ongoing operation, EPIC will be alone. Goals: 1- Find Agent Pathfinder. 2- Discover the truth. 3- Prevent WRAITH or other organizations from using the Doorstep for ill. Door to the Abyss and Oni: Ancient Neighponese tradition holds that Onis used to roam the land before a powerful sorcerer sealed them into the Abyss. In this way it is similar to the Equestrian Tartarus. However, while Tartarus' location is known to most Equestrians, the Doorstep was kept hidden. However, Agent Pathfinder believed she knew where the Door was located and recent rumors regarding that site suggested a WRAITH presence. The Door must remain shut. Onis are rumored to possess magic which, as well as giving them powerful extra-physical capabilities, makes them nearly invulnerable to combat damage. Additional Information: Neighpon is unaware of our presence. They would likely lump EPIC and WRAITH together in the same camp of foreign interlopers. EPIC must ensure their operations are low-key. While the truth behind them is obscured, if Onis do exist, they are potentially shockingly competent enemies. Engage only if necessary. The WRAITH presence was supposedly low, no more than two dozen at most. The operation will take place at night.

Dunder Posted September 21, 2016 Report Share Posted September 21, 2016 Dunder Blust the Valiant is ready to contain the abyss and hunt down any WRAITH! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ciraxis Posted September 21, 2016 Report Share Posted September 21, 2016 And so is Swift Squall. It's been far too long since he and his friend Dunder worked together, and in case this would prove needed Swift is fluent in local language. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pretzelparty Posted September 21, 2016 Report Share Posted September 21, 2016 I think it might be fun to bring Rubble Rose into this if that'd be alright. Her talents might be very useful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IceStorm Posted September 21, 2016 Report Share Posted September 21, 2016 Ice Storm will be present for this. Both as a tactical mind and a defense mage when things go south. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zeig Posted September 21, 2016 Report Share Posted September 21, 2016 If you're up for playable WRAITH, I think including Revenant could be fun. It'd probably make things more interesting for EPIC members to have a 'tangible' opponent, rather than faceless NPCs that can be controlled and defeated at will. But, considering the number of people involved (already four, possibly others), Revenant would be pretty over-powered in order to keep pace with the thread and the number of EPIC members he'd be going up against. He's suppose to be the Big Bad Dragon before the final boss fight anyways, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PyroBlaze Posted September 21, 2016 Report Share Posted September 21, 2016 I'd like to use Xiêyè in here. If he doesn't get accepted as a member of EPIC over on the main thread, perhaps he could be brought in/join on his own for this mission? He did grow up in Long Guo and has spent much time traveling it, so I'm sure he'd be useful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PyroBlaze Posted September 22, 2016 Report Share Posted September 22, 2016 Well, Xieye is a member of EPIC now, so he's in for this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lux Posted September 24, 2016 Report Share Posted September 24, 2016 Ah an EPIC event! I can add Night Watcher to the mix. As a former Lunar Guard, she has combat and tactical training. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ciraxis Posted September 27, 2016 Report Share Posted September 27, 2016 SO before we start...who's the team leader? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IceStorm Posted September 27, 2016 Report Share Posted September 27, 2016 Ice is a good tactician and always on the defensive. She'd be good for when it comes time to get pathfinder and everypony else out. She has been on several search and rescue. I think she'd be a good second in command, and taking point once the relics and pathfinder have been recovered. Getting to there though would require a pony with good navigating skills, when she's not great with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PyroBlaze Posted September 27, 2016 Report Share Posted September 27, 2016 Dunno what Xiêyè could be good for aside from fighting enemies. He has been around Neighpon before, so he could at least help with navigation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pretzelparty Posted September 27, 2016 Report Share Posted September 27, 2016 I think Night watcher makes the most sense to lead, with both experience as a guard and tactical knowledge I think she could be great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SteelEagle Posted September 28, 2016 Author Report Share Posted September 28, 2016 Since there is some confusion: That base camp is not one EPIC has set up. That is why it is notable that no one is there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteelEagle Posted December 21, 2016 Author Report Share Posted December 21, 2016 Zeig is withdrawing Revenant. I am very disappointed in some of you. I approved his entrance and of his character and if you had problems you could have contacted me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lux Posted December 22, 2016 Report Share Posted December 22, 2016 Wow... I had no problems with Revenant. In fact, I looked forward to facing him in the thread. Seemed like an interesting enemy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
