TIME TO PRETEND TO BE SOMEONE ELSE!

[ponymeisters]

Hello, Equestrians! Are you ready? This is not my beautiful house! This is not my beautiful wife! Nightmare Night is the annual celebration of Nightmare Moon's imprisonment, and it is celebrated through thrills, chills, and candy every year! And naturally, nothing beats putting on a costume and pretending to be somepony else, if only for one night. But...suppose somepony decided to take the idea of being somepony else a little too far? What if, instead of just putting on a costume and pretending, you suddenly woke up and were another pony? Literally? Really? Actually? Entirely? Completely? No take-backsies time twenty? If your first thought was "DISCORD! DID YOU DO THIS?!"...chances are, you're probably correct. And regardless of who's responsible, they're not changing you back until the holiday's over. Not that many ponies seem to believe anything's even wrong... PLOT INFORMATION For wibbly wobbly timey wimey-ness reasons, the events of the this part of the mod plot will canonically happen October 30th - November 1st. Yes, its a body swap event for Nightmare Night, which you will probably get to blame Discord for! Ponies are being switched with one another, from the lowest to the highest! And yes - this includes NPCs, whom players can switch with! Any player who wants to switch with any given NPC will need to respond below in the appropriate thread; the characters that will switch with said NPCs will be decided by RNG. EDIT: THIS IS NOW AN OPTIONAL EFFECT. For those who don't get switched with anyone, no worries - they can still participate in the madness. Unaffected characters (save, of course, for Discord) will be under their own spell of not believing that any switching has happened. Characters who try to proclaim they have been switched will just be laughed off, or passed off as acting weirder than normal. Because masses of ponies claiming they're really somepony else is totally normal on Nightmare Night! Feel free to plot below; we're putting this up early so everyone can get their switching plans done ahead of time! So, in closing: If you have any questions/comments/concerns, feel free to post about them here! (Ah, and one more thing. PICTURE CREDITS FOR RARITY AND SPIKE! I suck at drawing ponies, so picture credit goes to here!)

NPC Switch Sign Up

[ponymeisters]

Remember, the characters who switch with these NPCs will be decided by RNG!

Princess Celestia

[solequus]

Princess Luna

[doublesthefun]

Queen Melissa

[queenbees]

Other NPCs

[ponymeisters]

Because switched into a toy car would be cool, right?

[ponycure_dream]

Gonna be the first to toss in my hat: Putting up Nozomi as a candidate!

[foolish_seal]

Sure, why not. Let's toss Minato in as a candidate for Luna.

Mako | Hayate | Terra Plotting

[terraburning]

Please note that Terra is provisionally spoken for.

Terra will be swapping with Donna Noble for the event!

Mako and Hayate are currently awaiting offers if you want an Earth Pony that can turn into a frilly superheroine or a Pegasus with a frankly worrysome amount of combat abilities!

(seriously, one of her powers is explicitly weaponized juggling)

Fluttershy & Fluttercruel | Mami Tomoe | Littlepip

[cruel_kindness]

Who wants to have two people crammed into their body? In addition, other people such as Mami Tomoe and Littlepip if she doesn't get RNG'd.

Trixie will not be participating as she's too far away from Ponyville.

Nozomi | Sasami | Derpy | Q | Tsukasa Planning

[ponycure_dream]

For Nozomi, it's mostly just in case the girl doesn't get to act like a princess

ETA: If Nozomi doesn't get chosen, she's swapping with the Flutters. Sasami's taken as she's swapping with Sunset.

[mostcolorfulepithets]

Putting Littlepip up for this.

[mostcolorfulepithets]

What will be Littlepip's life if she ends up in either princess.

Miles "Tails" Prower (AU) | Coco Pommel Planning

[shyformerassistant]

While Tails does have a persona, it's tied to his soul so whoever switches with him likely won't have access to his. But if your character has a persona, they are free to use the Evoker if they wish.

He's had experience with body swapping before (as he switched with a different Yu back in DDD), but if he switches with a girl like Reimi, he might have a minor freak-out.

Coco has a precure item so that's free for use.

She may or may not have a freak-out depending on who she switches with.

TLDR; Coco is open and possible Tails if he's not switching with Reimi.

Minato | Patchouli | Captain Celestia

[foolish_seal]

All three are open, for the most part. Your choice between this fool, a magician with phenomenal magical power but a myriad of health problems, and a Celestia. Comes with a sweet hat for all of ten minutes before its proper owner comes and takes it back.

PInkie | Gen | Ako | Lyra | Woona Plotting

[forwantofapartycannon]

The only "semi-confirmed bit" here is Woona with Applejack but we're still weighing in on that. Otherwise, go nuts.

[mostcolorfulepithets]

Sure, why not? If Littlepip doesn't get RNG'd, then maybe she switches witgh Captain Celestia?

[mostcolorfulepithets]

If Semi-confirmed foes not become fully confirmed, then Littlepip and Woona. Otherwise, I'm up for Ako and Mami switching.

[forwantofapartycannon]

I'm totally up for both of that. I'll just check with Zoki if she decided to go with someone else for AJ.

[pirateponyprincess]

I'm not sure. I think I'd rather her switch with someone she has a little more CR with.

Rainbow Dash / Zecora / Morgan / Dust / Zetta

[elementofloyalty]

Offering these guys up. Anyone without someone eager for them will get tossed into RNG.

[ponycure_dream]

If Nozomi doesn't get RNG'd, care for Nozomi and Mami to swap?

Re: Rainbow Dash / Zecora / Morgan / Dust / Zetta

[meltsicecastles]

Lucia checking in for the chance of swapping with Zecora.

Re: Queen Melissa

[shyformerassistant]

Since nobody has signed-up for Melissa yet, I'll sign up Coco (if she doesn't switch with someone else).

[mostcolorfulepithets]

OKAY. If no RNG, then Mami and Nozomi swap. If RNG, it'll instead be Ako and Mami.

[ponycure_dream]

...oh! I brainfarted and didn't see that bit! >_<

Nozomi and the Flutters instead if Nozomi isn't RNGd?
