    Attention extension/user script/archive developers: 4chan's new HTML will be going live tomorrow, Sunday the 13th, at approximately 12:00PM ET. Please have your new versions ready to roll by then.

    Attention everyone else: GET READY FOR EXCITEMENT!! On Sunday we'll be rolling out our new imageboard HTML/CSS. Everything has been rewritten from the ground up and replaces code that is nearly a decade old. The designs will be 100% the same, but this should allow us and other developers to more easily modify and create add-ons for 4chan. Large threads should also render more quickly, and we also have a new mobile view for those on mobile phones. And a few other goodies.

    We expect the migration to be pretty painless, but expect some wonkiness tomorrow afternoon. The Official 4chan Chrome Extension will be updated immediately, and has a bunch of new features and runs 3x faster than the old one, so be sure to grab that in advance.

    A pony with a Hoof-Axe.

    A Hoof-Axe has a leather binding wound with a cord that tightens around a pony's foreleg. Attached to the other side is an axe blade, with dense steel and is sharpened at the end, designed to cut down on enemies.

    What the fuck did you just fucking say about my cooking, you little bitch? I'll have you know I graduated top of my class in the Culinary Institute of America, and I've been involved in numerous iron chef challenges, and I have over 300 confirmed recipes for Créme fraiche. I am trained in Habachi and I'm the top cook at my local Japanese Steak House. You are nothing to me but just another ingredient. I will feed you with culinary skills the likes of which have never been seen before on this Earth, mark my fucking words. You think you can get away with serving that shit to me over the Internet? Think again, busboy. As we speak I am contacting my secret network of celebrity chefs across the USA and your IP is being traced right now so you better prepare for the feast, stomach. The feast that wipes out the pathetic little thing you call your cooking. You're fucking dead, sous chef. I can be anywhere, anytime, and I can cook for you in over seven hundred ways, and that's just with my bare hands. Not only am I extensively trained in unarmed grilling but I have access to the entire arsenal of appetizers at Fridays and I will use them to their full extent to wipe your hunger off the face of the continent, you little shit. If only you could have known what unholy concoction your little "clever" recipe was about to bring down upon you, maybe you would have waited for desert. But you couldn't, you didn't, and now you're paying the price, you goddamn idiot. I will cook a ferociously delicious Béchamel sauce for you and you will drown in it. You're going to be fucking stuffed, kiddo

    To open the portal to the magical land of Equestria, you must first shed your mortal shell.

    Consult the internet on how best to proceed.

    Once you've reached your next stage of enlightenment, Equestria will be laid bare before you, all the ponies you know and love frolicking beneath, just as eager to get to know you as well.

    Artists get more flak because more people will look at the art, compared to those who will take the time to read fanfiction.

    Part of it is that it's almost impossible that those names won't be the first ones to come to mind. They're the ones who always post here. People talk about them more often. They're reposted more often. They're more recognizable. And so on.
    People just hear about them more so they're the ones we all know about. And we can only remember so many names. So the unfortunate fact is that a lot of people will get left out, but it really isn't anyone's fault.
    Just appreciate the artists and writers when they come and avoid artist/writer worship.

    You'd have a fair point, except this is fanfiction we're talking about. The preconceived notion of it being mostly shit is based on the the fact it *is* mostly shit.

    Yeah, maybe some people take the time to write a good story. But the majority of it is still terrible, just like if you do a deviantart search on (popular cartoon X) you'll get mostly shit art.

    Dude, have you read amateur fiction? it's shit regardless of whether it's 'fanfiction'. People just have preconceived distaste for the latter because when they're part of a fan community, it's lauded around more prevalently. It's shit the same way that a large amount of amateur creative production is shit, or at least in that its unpracticed artists trying their hand at a craft they have yet to refine.

    I write fanfiction, man. I am aware of both sides of the debate. The quality of the writing does not change the fact that it's still fanfiction, and I've never accepted the idea that skilfully approaching one's craft should outweigh the theft of another person's intellectual property.

    I don't think a single thing you just said has any merit to it. How is using source material 'creative theft'? Ninety-nine percent of creative work is derivative in some way from the source material ingrained in human consciousness. Not to mention the fact that some of the most popular works in available media are directly related to notable earlier fiction and creative endeavours.

    This is especially a point absent of content when you think about the fact that the show is so undeveloped past the situations it presents that it's essentially just a prompt for expansion. The only difference between fanfiction and original fiction in cases where it's character or situation based is that the audience is familiar with the former, and establishment of personality is avoided in what would be a normal short story anyway. Besides which, if you're writing a short piece of fiction, you probably have to leave out the majority of the character content anyway.

    It's hard to explain all the reasons why you're wrong, but they're immediately evident after a moment of rational thought.

    If it's bad (drawn by Timmy aged 5 bad), people will either be mean-spirited and mock you, or good-natured and try to help.

    If it's obviously good, people will line up to suck your cock or bemoan all the attention you're getting.

    If you're stuck somewhere in the middle, you're just nobody.

    Please, try to avoid resorting to ad hominem. It undermines your already-precarious argument.

    There's an extremely quick Rousseau rebuttal to your entire ignorant statement:
    1) Using someone else's source material without explicit permission is malum prohibitum and violates intellectual property law.
    2) Generalised statements such as "derivative in some way from the source material ingrained in human consciousness" are vague, abstract, and foolish Aristotelian sentiments that carry no real value. Again, as a citation, I refer to Wide Sargasso Sea - it is a popular work in available media and it is still an inherently flawed concept.
    3) Your argument on the "nature" of fanfiction is circumlocutious. Simply because short fiction has its own drawbacks does not necessitate relying on property theft.

    Try to play by your own rules of "rational thought", please?

    Except that those people work entirely different. Movies of books or other adaptions of other works will always try to find a way to introduce the concept, characters etc. behind the material of the adaption. Fanfic writers don't do that, they assume that you are immediately familiar with the whole concept. They are working on a completely different level that has no merit on it's own but borrows completely from a source without trying to stand on it's own.

    Incorrect. I'm sent, and even though I don't write stories or draw art, I appreciate everyone that has every posted art or stories here or anywhere. Just because you're not being paid money for art by some company or you can't make 100% original concepts from scratch doesn't mean you're bad or not good. To assert otherwise would be to undermine every humans achievements past the first creators, and an insult to everyone that has done anything.

    That's disgusting.

    No, a piece can have "artistic merit" whether or not it holds the copyright. Whether it is morally right to produce it and whether it holds actual merit is dependent on whether it is done with the creator's permission.

    You can reduce any statement to its basest elements to make it seem illogical, but the fact of the matter is that taking someone else's content constitutes a violation of their rights as its creator. Simply because your work has artistic merit doesn't make it right to create, nor does it make it valid.

    >>1892474

    Origins of aritstic creations were about recreating already existing things on different medium. For example cave drawings which were simplifications of human and animal forms. I think it would be a little stretch to say but everything you ever can create would be just recreation of thing already exisitng even if it's some abstract thought of yours it's still recreation of what you thought about...

    Other things would be merging ideas and involving style and technique etc. etc.

    ...I like that topic.

    That's because they're working as large assembled works of creative fiction that have the time and budget to do those things. When I started writing fanfiction I got yelled at for reaiterating concepts everyone was familiar with - that may or may not be a problem, but the reasoning for it is evident, because the audience that material is designed for is already familiar with all the characters, settings, etc.

    Also, I think if you went to see Wicked or read Grendel without being familiar with the source material, you'd be confused as fuck.

    Hey, yeah, I think so too. I love Batman & Robin.

    Artistic acceptability is a totally different concept from moral acceptability. I don't mean to demean fanfiction writers and fanartists as artists, because some of them are fantastic. But certainly the logic that it is somehow "morally acceptable" to misappropriate another person's content is inaccurate. Look at the hullabaloo with Ursula K. Le Guin's work or Anne Rice.

    You're misunderstanding me if you think I think fanfiction and fanart are bad because they're low quality. They're not.

    whoa man i think your on to something

    the next step we could take is to shut down 4chan so people use it for more than just dumping images

    then we can shut down the internet because people use it for more than dumping images

    then we can shut down the government because people use it for more than dumping images

    then life will be perfect

    It's not resorting to an ad hominem, it's an appeal to common sense to counter a point in a debate that shouldn't exist in the first place. It's like trying to explain to people why 'gay rights' is a subject that shouldn't exist, because rights and equality are exactly that, and they shouldn't warrant any unnecessary discusion.

    An appeal to the literal restraints of what constitute 'intellectual property' imply a directly derivative work, and there's still no separation between the readily available archetypes of fictional constraints and personality that's ingrained in public consciousness.

    Your citation is also a lacklustre example in benefit of your argument because you're founding the basis of its judgement entirely on your personal opinion. While whether or not we like something is a subjective constraint, the matter of its 'worth' is something that's more empirically judgeable. And I think dismissing the notion of a collective unconsciousness and its effect on human creative efforts is deliberate ignorance - whether or not you want to accept that your assemblage of influences and creative energy is a biproduct of life up to this point doesn't change the fact that all things are at their root, derivative of another creative work.

    And, to the third point, 'relying' on property theft has nothing to do with it. Whether or not the source material is original has nothing to do with the quality of the story and its presentation, which is why this entire argument seems futile to me if that point isn't immediately evident.

    How is there no logic behind it? You just stated it! A work should stand on it's own, or else it can't be really called a creative work. Don't see where the problem is behind that.

    Yeah with this path of thinking nothing is original and everything that ever was created is stealing.

    For example Da Vinci stole from those cavemans because they were the first that ever drew a human. Everything else later is just copying the same idea isn't it? Kind of yes. Topic is the same but performance is totally different. That creates originality. Merging many topics together as well as way of performing it including your own worked out style.

    I never said they are bad. I said they are not good. You can like something and still think it's not good. Those concepts aren't mutually exclusive.

    I think that is what the problem is. When I say that something is not good and has no artistic merit it doesn't mean that I think that they are bad works. That is just something that people automatically assume for some reason.

    You're committing a huge misunderstanding yourself in claiming a fanfiction writer cannot, under any circumstances, accurately convey a fictional universe in such a way that it could maintain the integrity of the original creator's property just because they aren't given consent.

    I fail to see how fanfiction is a moral issue just because Anne Rice is so conservative about it. Writers, artists, and directors should be able to inspire the imagination of the audience in such a way that certain people could transpose their own hypothetical ideas into amateur works, because inspiration is what keeps the business progressing. The more kids can be given ideas from "professional" sources to play around with, the more they can be introduced to environments where they CAN develop their own fiction -- a sort of spiritual derivation.
    If that's so "wrong," then maybe killing the industry altogether would prevent such a widespread moral travesty.

    What is defined as original content and revered as such today is not as anal as you say it is. Take for example Inception. It has elements of The Matrix and The Allegory of the Cave in it to name a few. If you are correct in your statements, it's a bad nor not a good movie because of said shared themes. The same logical breakdown with your argument can be applied to virtually anything made by human beings, from art to infrastructure. The patterns and layouts in some cities can be traced back to previous cities, and it doesn't even have to stop there.

    By your logic, everything Man has made can be traced back to the patterns in nature, for example how planes are deigned to be aerodynamic by studying how birds fly to seeing how animals. By taking the designs of nature and using them in our own designs, by your logic, anything made ever is inherently wrong for those shared themes.

    I'm on your side of this debate, but I think other anon is making the separation between direct usage and homage or inspiration. Writing a story inspired by a classic allegory is one thing, but naming your main character "Plato" and calling your movie "The Cave" might be a little different. That said, I think if the only division in your mind between right/wrong or good/bad is the directness of the reference, then you need to reconsider your value system.

    "Pinkie Pie" is a flawed concept for a character. Her personality is taken from the stereotypical hyperactive female portrayed in popular culture. Her deign is taken from how real equines are shaped, and her dimension are similarly taken from small ponies. In fact, her coat color is taken directly from the color spectrum, specifically around in the region of ~ 700–635 nm.

    It IS resorting to ad hominem. The fact that you accuse me of not thinking rationally is an attack on me rather than my argument, and you do so because your argument is weak and has no foundations. Ultimately you have no ground on which to fall back because you're defending a moral and legal illegality. It's not an "appeal to common sense" because, as anyone who doesn't produce illegal content would tell you, it's nonsensical to think it's acceptable to steal another person's content.

    Individual rights should exist, true. But you're thinking in hypothetical, utopian terms, rather than in the here and now, which is your major flaw - it's an irrational argument to judge based on presuppositions of a better society than the one in which we live. It showcases your total ignorance.

    Now you're being even more circumlocutious. Simply because there are no readily-defined separations between archetypes does not make it acceptable to plagiarise intellectual property. You're talking about an illusory and metaphorical "public consciousness" that exists in the dreamscape of artists rather than the logical and humanistic world that we live in. I do imply direct derivation because that's what fan-content is - direct derivation. And direct derivation is equivalent to theft.

    It's not a lackluster example - it illustrates my point well enough. You speak of subjectivity in enjoyment and a greater degree of objectivity in worth, and that is your greatest failing so far - your inaccuracy in understanding these concepts, labelling them as justifying the theft of intellectual property. Furthermore you extrapolate and philosophise while ignoring the central point of my argument - that it is entirely unacceptable from a moral perspective, as put forward by Socrates and Rousseau, to ignore the law as it stands on the issue. This isn't something that is malum in se. All things are inspired or draw legitimacy from earlier works, but that does not, at all, preclude a total theft of another's concept, even posthumously. To cite another example, there is a difference between the work of J.R.R. Tolkien's son in carrying on his father's legacy and the work of the author who produced the most recent Sherlock Holmes book in adding to the Holmes mythos as set up by Conan Doyle. It is impossible to deny that one is theft while the other is not - the former is sanctioned, the latter is not. Batman is not evil because he draws some inspiration from Sherlock Holmes, but a character called Sherlock Holmes is - even in adaptations. It is morally unacceptable.

    I never spoke of quality - that was a misunderstanding on your part. Simply because you can't read audience laughter doesn't make me make a statement on an issue I have already attested to not judging.

    I wouldn't really try to compare the progress in science to the progress in art. Science is trying to create an understanding of the world whereas art... well. That's entirely depending on the artist.
    Though I will agree with you when you say that culture has improved by working on what was before it,I still think that the biggest contributions were still done when people deliberately tried to break out of the common concepts at the time. Not that this matters nowadays.

    Will you two shut the fuck up?

    Here's a simple fucking answer: You put pencil (or whatever tool) to paper (or whatever canvas) with creative intent? To produce something meant to warrant an aesthetic reaction? It's art. Boom, we're done.

    The clear answer, then, is to spend the first 252 posts on pictures to fulfill the "talking about the show" contract and then we can spend the rest of the time doing things we like while someone else creates a new thread to post another 252 images. This is the ideal system.

    Isaac Newton said something to the effect of "standing on the shoulders of giants". It was an insult aimed at Robert Hooke, yeah, but he's right, it's the way culture works. Doesn't make Leibniz's later total theft of calculus right, but it does make an important point.

    I think I have more of a problem with your argument that you're defining the concept of 'theft' directly as 'use'. No grounds for the usage of inspiration, or anything being remotely derivative other than it being a direct translation to ill-spirited malapropriation of someone else's original content.

    I think another anon typified this point best when he summarized people's attitudes to derivative creative works as not being a basis for judging its empirical worth - and your argument now moreover has morphed into 'theft deligitamizes creativity' rather than 'the value of this creative work based on another original property is absent'. This is more to the point of whether you believe in a concept of a universal morality, because you're appealing to an established sense of 'acceptability' in what you're construing as theft, but that's a jump in logic that's completely inappropriate.

    I am not even sure, did steal Leibniz calculus now or did he really develop it on his own simultaneously?
    Also, yes, the "standing on the shoulders of giants" is definetely true for science, since it would else require every scientist to develop their own cosmology completely from scratch.

    I did mention Sherlock Holmes. The copyright law pertaining to him is long-since dead. Nonetheless I do think it's not right to resurrect a dead man's character that he hated, and certainly I don't believe in "arbitrarily choosing dates". It's the same shit Disney did with Mickey Mouse that led to copyright law becoming such a gigantic clusterfuck.

    I believe that if the original creator makes their content freely available to anyone to use, then go right ahead, but if not, that shit ain't right.

    Theft implies some sort of gain at the expense of the person that the concept is stolen from. Anon's argument is incredibly flawed.

    Fanworks don't do that, they pay tribute to the original creation and it's creators.

    Without trying to take a side here, allow me to interject.
    I draw cartoons.
    I've drawn since I could hold a pen, and it was my greatest dream as a child to be a cartoonist.
    My world was cartoons. My 12-year-old brother is watching Rugrats right now, and I'm watching this show and seeing how similar it is to shit I would draw.
    I don't like Rugrats. I don't find the style appealing, but that's how I draw.
    My style is an amalgamation of every cartoon and comic I watched and read as a child, combined with 20 years of practice.
    It is difficult for me to evolve beyond the habits I've formed, and now I draw like fucking Rugrats.

    Even in art, artists develop new techniques and concepts, and other artists try to improve upon them. That's how you got Pointilism from Impressionism, and Pop Art in the 50s and 60s from the work of Marcel Duchamp earlier in the 20th century.

    Yes, because that's what theft legally is. Forgive me, I'm currently in the thick of this subject, but use IS theft from a legal perspective. And no, I haven't spoken of "inspiration" at all - you are extrapolating falsely based on my statements. I'm the one who made the post at >>1893098 and I believe in cultural hand-me-downs, but in the forms of abstract concepts, not specific shit for people to steal. You, and only you, have misunderstood my intent.

    I never judged the "empirical worth" of the work. I judged its moral acceptability and, from the perspective of social law, it is morally unacceptable. You're compartmentalising my argument and then attacking parts you misunderstand on the flawed belief that I am somehow attacking the artistic merit of art and creativity when I am not. Theft doesn't de-legitimise creativity, it damages the fundamental moral foundations of the content and, furthermore, breaks the law. There is no "jump in logic" - the entirety of this argument has been on the basis that social law is what I am speaking of, not your vague, abstract artistic beliefs.

    But creativity is inherent in everything, anon. From the way you sketch a line on paper to the composition of a drawing, to the expression you give the characters when you create them. Just because what you might be drawing is an amalgamation of other creative influences, or even directly derivative of them, doesn't mean it's not its own type of creativity.

    I steal your sculpture, you lose a sculpture, that's theft

    I sketch your sculpture, you still have your sculpture, I don't have a copy of your sculpture, I have an original work based of your sculpture created in good faith, that's not theft

    If you write a book, and you die, no matter what that person does to that book, if they take the idea and play around with it, plagiarize it or burn the book, that person doesn't care anymore. Same with graverobbing. He is dead.

    What happens after death is tasked to the living. Plagiarism is wrong because it is theft and false hood. Burning is disrespectful to the LIVING who are, but not illegal. And graverobbing is illegal because it is stealing, defilement to property and trespassing, with the body and tombstone and actual body being property.

    But I think it's not a good form of creativity. That's really it. That a work of art should try to disconect itself from as many other sources as possible, because else you can't really say that it is your own creation.

    You know. I think I am approaching that from a way too personal perspective, as this is exactly what I am trying to avoid about my own stuff.

    There seems to be a misunderstanding here. Intellectual property is different to physical property in the fact that if you use omeone else's ideas, they will not diminish, but will still be there for others to use. A stolen bike cannot be used by anyone else BUT the thief.

    It's the law. How dare you attack my corporate overlords. I demand an apology!

    But no, seriously, I'm being a bit too restrictive here in terms of how intellectual property and physical property theft are defined. You can draw my sculpture if you like as long as you don't intend to profit from my sculpture in any way, that's the law, including through the sketching of my sculpture.

    >>1893344
    Yeah, it's morally outrageous to the living. That's the point. The dead don't care. We're not disagreeing on that, we're disagreeing on the moral acceptability of the action.

    >>1893308
    To a point, I'm playing devil's advocate. There's a certain degree of hypocrisy involved here, after all. I believe that it's not right to profit in any shape or form from another's work without their express permission - so, say, taking commissions regarding the show is morally unacceptable - but I don't believe in not creating fan content entirely, I love fan content.

    And I'd certainly never judge the artistic merit of the pieces. There's some great fanfiction out there, you know.

    But that is literally impossible. The only way you can 'disconnect yourself from as many other sources as possible" would be to not make contact with society and other people. If someone says "Elephant" you are not going to think elephant as an original thought. You would have to isolate yourself from everything and use the bare basics of reading, problem solving and comprehension to create a true original thought. It is realistically impossible to make original content and use your argument. We learn from one another, that is out nature. We learn skills, moral, social norms and ideas from other human being. It is simple as that, it is our nature.

    So if you're conceding profit is a standing point for the definition of 'theft' then how does that play into your argument that morality is something lacking in the creation of derivative fiction?

    I also realized I have a problem with your definition of 'rightness' via the constraints of the law (especially if its regionally established, which all law is), and that you're using legality to determine any form of worth of a creative endeavour

    The act of profiting from someone else's intellectual property doesn't diminish the original property in the physical sense, but it does, from a legal perspective, commit an immoral diminishing act in the intellectual sense. It's similar to how people take offense to bad sequels, if you'll allow me to use an oversimplified analogy.

    Yes, I realised that using "good" was stupid of me as soon as I posted. Should have used something else. But that's what I am coming to realise now anyway. My whole view of art and creativity that I am trying to defend here is probably way too much influenced by my own values (funny, because I am trying to defend the complete opposite).

    Fair use applies sometimes, yeah, like in parody. But there's nuance even to the use of parody - for instance, you can't straight rip a character name from the original thing. But in many situations it's only because the creator doesn't want to litigate every little offence - there's a lot of backlash over those sorts of things.

    So what you're really doing here is trying to discuss the morality of "spiritual appropriation" (to be as general as possible) in art when what we're really discussing is legality - in relation to laws meant to protect corporate interests rather than the greater good ("morals").

    That's not to say that corporate law doesn't have it's place, but that place is certainly not in this discussion.

    except that, as soon as I realised that I tried to change that too and build up my world view without any outside influences. The same thing goes for art in my opinion. That the quality of a work can be seen on how much of it is actually developed on it's own (and other factors of course).

    I'm not conceding that profit is the only standing point for the definition of theft, but it is one of them. And I'm sorry, but you're going to have to clarify that point for me. You're saying that if profit is necessary to theft, derivative fiction that doesn't profit can't be considered theft? The issue with that is that, again, it often offends the wishes of the original creator, which is in and of itself a mischief. If one contravenes the intent of the original creator, there is a moral fault there for the person committing the mischief that can only be remedied through theft.

    Here's a cool resource worth checking out (I read a book on it once, but I can't remember the name):
    http://fanlore.org/wiki/Legal_Analysis


    I'm talking purely in an extradomestic sense, here - most of the western world has the same general copyright law. It's the current cultural paradigm. In fifty years, it might be different. And, again, I am NOT talking about the worth of a creative endeavour, please try to listen - I am referring specifically to the moral acceptability of theft of someone else's content. Theft does not preclude artistic merit.

    But the whole origin of this discussion (if you look at your original post) was based on the conceit that fanfiction was worth any less than original fiction. If you're entire argument is strictly whether or not it's 'legal' (which wasn't a point I was even remotely interested in discussing until you made it the core of your argument) then I have no bearing to discuss that because I'm not remotely educated enough about the legalities of intellectual property - but if you're conceeding that 'legality' is a separate concept entirely from any other value judgement of fanfiction, then what have you been doing this entire time?

    And, again, I'm discussing it in a broad sense. Legality has been, since the start, what I've been discussing. The law in relation to both the protection of corporate interests and the law pertaining to the defence of individual creator intellectual property copyrights.

    [citation needed]
    To my knowledge, there are only a handful of writers who really give a shit, and those who do generally contact fanfiction distribution sites to include them on their "DNP" lists.

    When you look at the number of authors and directors who own IPs that commonly derive fanfiction (Neil Gaiman, J.K. Rowling, Joss Whedon, Stephanie Meyer, etc.), they're generally neutral toward fanfiction, and some even support it within reason.

    Action toward removal is really the only instance I've seen of fanfiction being an issue of opposing the wishes of the original writers, and several sites respect those.

    I don't understand why we're hating each other. I firmly believe in both the artistic merit of fan content and the fact that it's morally unacceptable. Why can't we all just get along?

    Where people get this idea that I'm somehow committing libel against the entire field is beyond me. I'm just pointing out that it's not cool to steal and then doing it anyway. And to be fair, I think I'm discussing the point with NTSTS, so he can't be trolling, right?

    Confused on what you guys were discussing? But I've always been discussing it from a legal sense. Either way, point is, I like that we can have these sorts of discussions about something as important as art. Art is a big thing, and drawing ponies is important to a lot of people here, so being able to look at it critically is neat. I guess if I misunderstood what you guys were talking about, though, I'm sorry - I never meant to attack fan content as a pursuit because I firmly believe in its value and am actually part of an endeavour to overturn and reform copyright law later on.

    Regardless of your efforts, you've been 'tainted' as it where. Those ideas shaped who are are and how you function in the world. In fact, they have influenced you to try to change your views.

    Rather than trying to change who you are based on this idea of original content and thought, embrace it and make it your own. You are human, and it is vital that one takes other ideas and give it their own flare to them.

    That was really the entirety of my point. There's a handful of writers who give a shit and they don't like it - like the Watchmen guy, for instance - and I referenced some of them. Also, fanfiction has allowed for theft of the original property in some cases - there's an American case that talks specifically about how a fanfiction author was actually able to wrest control of part of a franchise away from the original author because of the original author's friendliness to the fanfiction author, it's shit like that that I'm talking about.

    When I say "often", I mean in a general sense - not "mostly". It has happened fairly often.

    Hah, you've got me there - at least in the political sense. In the legal sense there's a marked difference between the two illegalities, as one is a violation of law and the other is a political sanction, but I think at this point I'm just going to concede that I can't convince people doing illegal things is illegal.

    Again, it's more malum prohibitum than malum in se, but it's still, you know, a little bad.

    Loading your crossbow before going to negotiate isn't the friendliest thing to do.
    >> DM 05/12/12(Sat)20:20 No.1894615
    You approach the center of the roost as a tight group, looking cautious.
    One of the dragons, likely the eldest by Noise's judgement, rises up to greet you. Noise says you've come at a bad time. There has recently been a major internal argument among the splinter tribe, leading to it breaking down even further as half of the dragons headed northwards to seek safer grounds further away from Ironhide.
    Those who stayed are now weighing their options.
    If you have something to offer, do so, but otherwise leave them be. They have enough trouble as it is.

    Noise further explains that small groups tend to make mating hard, leading to little offspring. Uniting them with another splinter might be a good plan, or alternatively they could be convinced to join the war effort as their mating is already likely a failure.

    What do you do?

    The crossbow is loaded
    >>1894650
    >>1894673
    You ask Noise if the trinkets would be of any use.
    She goes over them for a while and gets a wide smile on her face. They indeed might be of use.
    While most of it is just fancy baubles, there is a Dragonheart Gem among them. Many dragons like to eat gems but these are usually left uneaten, as they pulse softly when near dragons. The pulse grows with every dragon nearby, so sometimes they are used during migrations to find other groups.
    >>1894697
    >>1894674
    >>1894660
    Noise knows that there is her old splinter back in the Griffon Kingdom to the northeast, and the group that split off from this splinter that was heading north.
    She could offer these dragons the gem and some directions, possibly in exchange for a ride to the mountains and promises of future assistance.
    >> Trusty [Tracker] 05/12/12(Sat)20:30 No.1894818

    Noise is very happy that her idea was good. She turns to talk to the elder dragon, showing the gem and explaining something in dragonspeak.
    After a while she returns to you and says the splinter agrees with the deal. She asks if she should direct them to the splinter in the Griffon Kingdom, or the one headed north?
    She can then either join this splinter or stay with you as you search the mountains.
    >> Radiant Dawn the Paladin 05/12/12(Sat)20:36 No.1894941

    We don't know anything about the other splinter, the one in the GK might be a safer bet.

    You agree to keep Noise with you.
    Noise knows the griffon kingdom splinter should be about 16 dragons strong, but the King needs to be informed so that he won't attack the dragons thinking they are there to take more roosting space by force. The king already had to evacuate two whole towns to make space for the dragons already there.
    The splinter to the north is a wildcard. She knows nothing of it.
    >> Aenoi [Cleric] 05/12/12(Sat)20:42 No.1895028
    >>1894989
    is our destination in the same direction as the splinter? we could travel with them. and if the splinter up there is hostile then it'd be easier to send word to the griffon kingdom to ask if they could accommodate these dragons
    >> Trusty [Tracker] 05/12/12(Sat)20:42 No.1895029

    >> Radiant Dawn the Paladin 05/12/12(Sat)20:42 No.1895034

    We know that it's Noise's group and they are not hostile.

    >>1895000

    >> DM 05/12/12(Sat)20:46 No.1895106
    You explain your plan to Noise. She seems worried but agrees to present your case to the dragons here.
    After a discussion, the dragons agree to take you north to the mountains. They will stay in the foothills and wait there. If you locate the other splinter and convince the to rejoin the group, they will all aid you in the coming battle.

    Noise listens and nods, remarking that if infighting was the reason the group broke off, you may need to deal with what or whoever the problem was.

    You have arrived upon the mountain. The gem is pulsing harder, indicating there are more dragons here.
    The scenery is rugged and dark. Jagged rock formations line the cliffs and an eery dark mist floats near the ground. Although it is day, it might as well be midnight here.
    There are some paths leading towards a plateau, another that seems to head higher, possibly to a peak, and a lower path that enters some caves on a cliffside.
    Noise chimes in saying that any of these might be a potential temporary roost, and that splitting up in such terrain would be suicidal.

    Where do you go?

    You spot that some of the rocks towards the plateau have been disturbed fairly recently.
    Notably you also spot a path overgrown with some shrubs. It seems nobody has used it for years, possibly centuries, but it certainly is, or at least once was, a path.

    You head out to the path. It soon begins leading sharply upwards, and the dark mist gets thicker as you go further up.
    Fang-like rocks jut from the cliffs above, and dark clouds further mess with visibility. Luckily Radiant's torch provides ample light to see where you are going.

    As you reach the end of the path, you come to a summit you never saw from below. It is black as night and nothing grows there. Some scattered stones indicate there once may have been a building here.
    You can make out a vague shape in the darkness. It does not move.

    You all move closer, ready to strike.
    To your relief you find that it is not alive, simply a statue.
    Remarkably, it appears to be completely intact, even though the stone ruins around it are worn and blasted.
    The statue is grotesque, featuring parts of many animals. It is like a large pony, but instead of a head it has another body, much like one of a minotaur. It has mighty, jutting horns and perhaps most unnervingly, a dark, beating heart.
    You also notice a worn, corroded sword discarded near the statue.

    You inspect the statue, and realize it is an effigy of Tirek, the lord of Midnight. Regarded by some as a god of pure evil, he was said to wield the power of darkness, capable of twisting any being into a horrible monster.

    >>1895849
    No, but you did come really close to having to fight a demon.

    She says she has only heard vague legends of this Tirek, but the heart seems to radiate some sort of malignant energy. It might be possible to peer into it to see some truth to the events than unfolded here.
    She will need the party to help shield her from the darkness, as she fears that there might still be unexpected power left in this altar.

    Your party stands ready, placing a ward on the altar and a protective aura upon Noise.
    She steps before the heart and looks deep into it.
    As the visions flood her mind, she does her best to narrate the unfolding events.

    Valiance, knowing he could never save his princess and homeland alone and without aid, sought to find power that would let him face the dragons and end them once and for all. He swore he would make any sacrifice and suffer any fate so long as he could perform his service.
    He soon began having dreams. Dreams of an altar shrouded in eternal midnight. He was drawn to find this place. He wanted to know why it called him, and what it's purpose was.

    Suddenly, Noise recoils a bit from the heart. She says she felt it gaze back at her. She is not sure if she should continue, but wants to know what the truth behind Valiance is.

    What do you advise her to do?

    Noise gazes back into the heart

    Valiance sought out this place and climbed the long forgotten path. He fought twisted monsters and suffered great wounds, but pressed on. At the summit he found a temple dedicated to Tirek, the Lord of Midnight. having suffered greatly, he dropped his chipped and dulled blade, and pleaded to the dark one to reveal why he was called.
    He was granted a vision, in which he cut down hundreds of dragons with ease, destroyed their nests and slaughtered their young. He was saving all of equestria.
    With this vision burned to his mind, he grasped the beating heart of darkness and embraced his destiny. His wounds knit shut into gruesome scars and he began swelling into a massive size. Dark flames engulfed him and melted his armour, fusing it with his flesh and he was twisted into a colossal dragon.
    Enraged by this twist of fate, Valiance smashed the temple from within, but could not harm the altar as it stood there, seemingly mocking him. He then-
    >>1896378
    Radiant tackles Noise down before she can gaze further. The heart was drawing her closer and closer.
    She shakes her head and thanks you for that.
    She thinks you know all you need to know about Ironhide now. All that remains to do now is find those dragons, settle their disputes and report back to Celestia.

    The party steps onto the plateau, with Noise taking the lead, flanked by Radiant and the two guards. Aenoi follows behind along with Zebro, while Dawn and Trusty take aim under the surprisingly snugly camo net.

    Around the opposite edge you count nine adolescent dragons.
    The biggest one, most likely their leader, a top-heavy dark grey one hops down to face you.

    Noise finds her second wind and stands up to the leader dragon. She tells him this is a time of great importance and that is 2EDGY4YOU shit can wait the few fucking weeks it takes to complete the migrations. With a Tirek-spawned abomination on the loose, there is ZERO reason to start acting up like this.
    The dragons on the cliff seem impressed, but the leader is adamant. He came here to start his own brood, with all his best bros and the hottest ladies. His brood is gonna be awesomerer than any other, and bigger too.
    And Noise is a total sperglord dorkface who likes ponies.

    Noise is at the edge of tears. She isn't good at talking with boys like this. Support of some type is needed.

    Radiant charges in, swinging the Hammer of the Sun in a mighty arc. It lands a heavy blow on the dragon's shoulder, just missing his head. It shatters scale and bone, leaving one arm crippled. Before she can ready another strike though, the dragon spins with an agility that belies his size, striking Radiant from below with his spiky tail. The blow is heavy and leaves her winded, but the Sun Plate protected her vitals. It was just like Celestia herself guarding your heart~

    You swing again, somewhat exhausted from whiffing your killing blow, but still manage to wound his leg. In retaliation, the dragon takes to the air and drops on top of you. You are pretty sure that "SNAP" you heard was a bad snap, not a good one.
    The Sun Plate is buckled and dented around you, digging into your sides. You can taste blood in your mouth.

    Round four. Roll.

    Your fury driven flurry catches the dragon as he comes for another pass, crushing his wing and causing him to crash into the ground. Bruised and bleeding the dragon tries to drag himself up one more time. He is wide open.

    Her little speech is met with a bellowing laughter. A dragon stands up from among the group, clapping. He thanks you all for this little show you put on. However he has no intention of letting his brood be lost just because his right hand man got his ass beat.
    He gives you one chance to leave without trouble. Take it or leave it.
    He also wants to keep Noise as a replacement for the dragon your damaged.

    The newly risen dragon's boast is met with cunning smiles. Before he can figure out what is going on, a lightning bolt strikes him clean through the shin. Electricity flows into his leg, causing it to convulse, sending him crashing into the plateau center.
    The two guards are there to meet him.

    The bear rises, but the spell is weak, it might fall apart soon.

    You leap in with a final push, slaying the dragon trio where they stand. As the dust settles you recap the situation.

    Of the nine dragons in this splinter, three are dead and one heavily injured. The five others remain unhurt.
    Noise was injured by healed
    Radiant needs some rest and proper medical attention

    You should probably escort the survivors back to that splinter group you were trying to help.

    You agree to see to it that the two splinters are united once again.
    Noise tells you the elder is sad that some of his children had to die for this victory, but he will uphold the deal. His brood will answer the call to battle Old Ironhide.

    Go check if you forgot anything on the mountain

    shouldn't we move to a fresher dead horse?

    Living alone has some perks, like being able to do random all nighters with the lights on.
    Also my chair is comfy as balls.
    Too bad I've wasted a full roll of toilet paper blowing my nose.

    I want to get a cheese snack superbad, and even though the fridge is two meters away that would surely wake up my roommate.

    Out of tissues and paper towels, don't want to walk to the sink every time I blow my nose. This was the best plan.
    Do you want to move to the next horse (MLPGDNDRPG invading three horses in one sitting? Holy fuck) before we go to the cave?

    If this is supposed to be a fapfiction about my fetishes you people are missing the mark by miles so far.

    >>1900915
    yea sure
    >>1900880
    i'd make a joke about healing your stallion face but you might not protect me in the caves so i won't
