Page 211 – Less Is More, More or Less

The really dangerous thing about the urge for wanton destruction in an RPG is that it’s satisfying. No matter how bad the repercussions are for flying off the handle, every player who fully committed to the act will come out of it all saying to themselves, “Totally worth it.”

Fluttershy: Sorry if this is getting off track, but… Did you say something about blue flowers?

DM: Yes. When Zecora stopped to speak to you, she had just walked through a field of unnaturally blue flowers. Because you followed her, you and Apple Bloom are all now standing in the middle of it.

Applejack: …Unnaturally blue. How so?

DM: They’re just very, very blue flowers. They stand out against the other plants of the Everfree.

Rarity: Wonderfully detailed description, there.

Rainbow Dash: It stands out! That means it’s important. We should burn the entire field, just to be safe.

Twilight Sparkle: How about no. No randomly attacking, no breaking and entering, no burning.

Rainbow Dash: …No fun.
