Its the fourth anniversary of the Sweet and Elite roleplay!

Thanks to Toot Sweet and Nightstalker for once again having hosted the majority of sessions, providing us with plot, fun and the opportunity to regularly meet every Friday for this event! Thank you for taking time and effort to think up scenarios that would be fun to play for us.

Also a shoutout to Fancy Frosting who started both the Meet and Greet and Hide and Seek, but who unfortunately doesn't take part in it anymore. After this, Toot has taken care to continue the roleplaying event and Optic Rainfall has taken care of the Hide and Seek.

This year I would like to thank Strawberry Milk for having hosted the session on July 9.

And now, without further ado, the summaries of our sessions since the 3rd anniversary:

  • Farsight is hired to replace Silver Bell should she not arrive.
  • She does arrive, but Farsight is roped into doing "special effects".
  • Blitz also arrives, but stays away from Night.

  • Blitz invites more of his Fire Brigade to the show, because he thinks it's very entertaining.
  • Farsight creates a phoenix that is blue instead of the usual red and, due to misreading the stage directions, lets it behave a little differently than intended. While the director is irritated, Silver Bell is confused, but can hide her anger.
  • Mint Medley concludes that this Spelltacular was different than those of the last years, but still good.
  • After the show, some ponies tease Night about going to the Spelltacular with Sunken, especially since she has fallen asleep in his hooves.
  • Night swears revenge for Farsight having picked her as a "volunteer" for the show and says Farsight might want to watch his coffee in the future.
  • Strawberry is a bit worried about Sunlight's teasing going to far. She tells him she wants to carry HIM home and not his remains.
  • When the topic changes to the Fire Brigade and Strawberry asks Night about them, they retreat as quietly as possible.

  • The ponies feel a tickle in the back of their mind.
  • They meet a yellow stallion who talks to himself. Upon further inspection, it's an E.S.P. agent gone mad.

  • The further they approach the maximum security area, the worse the itching gets and is now accompanied with nausea.
  • Mint distracts the slime with Emerald's perfume.
  • Mint explains that the effect comes from a mix of whatever affected this agent and the after-effect of the teleporting and the effect of 4516.
  • More agents gone mad appear. They all seem to feel guilty and apoligize, but their babble is so incoherent, that the group cannot figure out what they are sorry of or what they experienced. An agent is distraught when Azure touches him.
  • Azure puts a mind-blocking spell on them, which lessens the effects.
  • Azure meets a semi-sentient slime.
  • The group gets a demonstration of the slime's acidity, as it shambles over a used bag which dissolves.
  • Mint distracts the slime with Emerald's perfume.
  • Blitz seems to be unable to move very quickly.
  • As they approach the high security vault, they experience vertigo in addition to the nausea.
  • When they enter the chamber where the amulet is stored, it sends big mental  pulses out that mess with the ponies' minds.
  • Farsight puts the amulet in a box and Azure puts multiple sealing spells on it.
  • Everypony immediately feels better after the amulet is sealed.
  • Mint activates his amulet (not Azra's) to create a portal back to the place they came from. The communications work again. Farsight uses his crystal to give the artist tent case to somepony else.

  • With a plant-growing potion and a stab of a sword in the minotaur's knee gears make them useless, causing the minotaur to be immobile. Another stab in the minotaur's gears block them, make the creature stutter and jerk and then the red glowing eyes fade and the creature falls.
  • After they have defeated the minotaur, they meet the final room of choices. The inscription above the doors simply says "valor".
  • The room is a burial chamber. It has a radiant bow and a giant ship. Sunlight examines the bow. Emerald excitedly claps her hooves. Azure explains that the pony lying in the sarcophagus must be a big hero for the Pre-Equestrians.
  • Emerald is clearly not amused when Sunlight plays with the bow like that.
