The highly unofficial* crossover between Call of Cthulhu and My Little Ponies is apparently real, and it’s going to be spectacular:
So what’s next for “The Ponies of Tindalos”? April Fools is over all around the world, so we can write more without risk of it being taken for a joke.
First – it wasn’t a joke! We announced this supplement yesterday because of its crazy mood, but we will release it.
Basically: friendship is sorcery, but you’re a non-Euclidean monster, so if the humans that you’re trying to help see you, things get squamous in a hurry. As I said on Facebook, this would make for a hysterical convention game. Four hours of sheer egging-each-other-on madness. I will get this, and I will run THE PONIES OF TINDALOS at some point. This, I swear.

*There’s no way that they could get the official rights to this for less than their firstborn’s souls. Fortunately, the MLP-specific bits are mostly flavor that can be provided by the individual GM and players.
As someone who is an uncle/grand uncle of eight girls and a fan of HPL for more than half a century, this is either an example of sheer genius or a sign of the End Times.
Possibly both.
IƤ feel obligated to note that this is a horrible idea.
(Deal me in.)
Yeah, I was really unhappy that they had come up with this because I did think it was an April Fool’s Day gag. Which it was — with a twist!
