    [Comedy][Random]

    Author: Sharaloth

    Story: History Repeats (New Part 4!)


    [Adventure][Dark] "Weaving G1 and G4 together is no easy task, but this story takes a very difficult concept and makes it work, bringing an older Megan to Equestria. Worth every word." - Pre-Reader Hide 'n Seek Winner 2-Years Running.


    Author: Saddlesoap Opera
    Description: The history of Equestria spans dozens of centuries, and many terrible
    foes have risen up from the past to threaten the future once more,
    only to be defeated.

    When a vicious and powerful enemy older than any Twilight,
    her friends, or even the Princesses have faced before returns, they will
    have to reach out to an ally just as ancient for help... but is she still
    the heroine she once was?

    This story takes place after the end of Season 3, and draws on G1
    as well as G4 for inspiration.

    Story: The Sword Coast (Update Part 10!)


    [Adventure][Crossover][Dark] Finally a Baldurs Gate crossover!

    Author: AdrianVesper
    Description: When a dark enemy begins hunting the young wizard Twilight Sparkle, the walls of the fortress library of Candlekeep cannot protect her. Not even her mentor, the archmage Star Swirl the Bearded, can keep her safe. With a price on her head and the shadow of death on her heels, her only hope for salvation is the Magic of Friendship. Perhaps, with powerful allies at her side, she can find answers and uncover the truth about her destiny.

    (This story is inspired by the Baldur's Gate CRPG series by Bioware, but you do not have to be familiar with BG to understand its events)

    Story: Sunshine and Fire (Update Part 13!)

    Sunshine and Fire (All Links)(New Part 13!) 



    Story: Jericho (New Part 13!)


    [Comedy][Adventure][Dark] "Jericho is one of those stories where I can’t go one scene without seeing some gem of characterization, humour, or worldbuilding that makes me want to hold it up to the world and say, 'Yes! This is how it’s done!'" -- Pre-reader Amacita

    Author: Crushric
    Description: If you came to hear a story, I’m sorry to disappoint. I suspect this’ll just end up as one big confession, really. When you’re the first Teutscher to set hoof into Equestria for nearly a millennium, I suppose that’s to be expected. And when you’re the universe’s favorite chew toy, doubly so. Still, with enough wit, some Prussian ingenuity, a droll sense of humor, and wanton murder, I might just survive this. Then again, when you’re going up against an unending list of things like government conspiracies, that guardian angel who keeps telling you to kill ponies, psycho Equestrian girls with allophilia, a lunatic princess, the legions of the Inferno, the Equestrian culture itself, swashbuckling sword fights, and laissez-faire economists, you begin to release why there’s a big “if” in the middle of your life.

    Fifty years into the future, Sunset Shimmer is Princess Twilight Sparkle's most faithful student. She is smart and eager, but doesn't always think things through. Her life had been perfect, right up to the End of the World.

    With a ruined future, Sunset travels into the past to alter the course of history. With only her mentor's cryptic word to go on, Sunset and the Elements of Harmony must solve the riddle of the Dark Regalia and stop the mysterious Vesper Radiance from rising to power. But the further Sunset goes, the more she feels like she's been through it all before.

    Is destiny set in stone, or can Sunset shape her own future? Only time will tell.
