As promised, I’ve written a more elaborate editorial on Pony Tales. Also as promised, Stairc has finally released his Pony-Handler’s Guide, the Pony Tales DM guide.

If you’re going to be part of that group today or tomorrow, look for the white guy with dark brown hair wearing green aviator sunglasses. Not too many of those in Portland, Oregon, right…?

Applejack: Yes, we know what a landslide is.<br/>
DM: … For this area, I’m going to require you to speak softly both in-character and out-of-character, or else you’ll disturb the rocks above you.<br/>
Fluttershy: O-Oh, good, I wasn’t planning on talking much anymore… Seems to work better that way…
