[size=+1]*Dead*[/size] Congrats, you've died! Yep, we're starting with this. You are now a barely metaphysical manifestation of thoughts, experience, knowledge, feelings and secrets wrapped up in something akin to a slightly weird atmosphere. The fact that you're even...doing whatever you do now instead of draw breath is down to a powerful Alicorn with power over the souls of the deceased. She's rather sweet, in her own way, residing in her throne carved from the stone of her cave. The bizarre blue tinted light from the many plinths containing burning flames catch her empty eye socket when her hood happens to fall out of the way. The tall horn on her head seems to move with an unearthly weight, almost as if distorting the light it passes through. Her binding possession over you is incredibly strong but it's only now she chooses to pull you into something more grounded before her, pleased with the haul of new recruits. You see, there's nothing she can't make you do should you cross her. This, right here, is the only Princess you need concern yourself with any further. And she desperately and hideously needs you to act in her stead as her happy little minions upon the world above. There are spirits that manage to escape into the world covered in the light the Sisters of the Sun and Moon provide and gorge themselves on so many things this world has to offer. They revel in the emotions of the mortals here. Their tempers run high and they can use that. Some learn how to force a spark of it into their victims to kickstart a chain reaction then reap everything else. Some love the raw burn and radiated aggression of anger or depression. There's something to be said for being able to syphon off the power just floating off of these individuals. Some adore the waves of passion that flood the room when somepony is proud or joyous. Happiness is hard to make in quantities that can satisfy a wayward spirit like this but it's glorious when they do. So, they do often resort to creating more negative emotions. I'm sure you can imagine the carnage. And that's your job: you are commanded to round up or eradicate wayward spirits. Of course, Princess Luna has been doing this with limited success. Afterall, her team eradicated the last batch of minions sent that you replaced. They might not be overtly trustworthy.
Is there probably a way to tell from the good ghosts vs. those evil spirits? Because what if the spirits sort of "disguise" themselves as the ghosts?
I think that's part of the fun, the not knowing and having to figure it out. Done right, this could be quite good. *stops the presses* I might actually be up for an RP on this one. :derpe:
Hmm...I will have to get on with this one... - - Auto Merge - - My god, what have I done? Or...OOC is up.
