The first pony-themed RPG of hicu-rpg. PRPG2 is a distant sequel, taking place over a thousand years later and on a different part of the world.
Synopsis
The staff of the wood-burning district heating plant in the town of Pebble are surprised to learn that their facility is to be replaced with an electric heating plant powered by the hydroelectric dam being constructed in the Ghastly Gorge. The manager of the plant, Firebug, decided that this was due to the intervention of her archnemesis, the mayor of Pebble. After some diffident attempts at harassing him, she and plant security guard Epona Moonbeam decided to assassinate the mayor with a snake in his toilet, and set off to collect a venomous serpent from the Everfree forest, disguising the expedition as a team building retreat for some of the plant' staff, including new hires Revolution Rosie and Shady Jay, and Firebug's secretary Wiggles.
Encountering various complications (including a hydra), interpersonal difficulties, and a pigeon who turned into a pony (Falafel), the party ended up taking refuge in the Iron Tower of Neighswango and holing up there to hide from monsters. Eventually the party returned to Pebble, but ended up in the ]]Dread Dimensions]] shortly thereafter, having being trapped in the Arcane Helix when it briefly returned to Equestria. After working their way through the Helix, they confronted skeletal archmage Dusty Tomes, and defeated him. They returned to Equestria through a portal opened by the Shadhavar. Epona and Wiggles went on to open a chain of retail stores. Firebug married Shady Jay and returned to the Iron Tower of Neighswango. Rosie was subsumed into the changeling hivemind (voluntarily.)
