Wait we have livestock? I thought it was fish agriculture and crops and mushrooms. I figure the selective breeding would be super effective on those things.
We have all of those and some form of livestock as well. We never did actually get told what animals we raise. Probably because it's not too important. We know there are two types of beings on this world sapient and sentient animals.
OH LOOK.
Good luck, they could literally be anything even the throne pillow...
Yeah its really bad.Oh what the feathered fuck.
They're even more of a security risk than I previously thought. We're getting into Prey levels of potential bullshit here.
It is a more dangerous and worse version of rabies. The DD do not know if it was made by discord or if it was around before he showed up. They only had oral history up to now. Discod reigned for hundreds of years so things have been lost.
Good luck, they could literally be anything even the throne pillow...
Call it colonialism instead
Part of the problem is external trade is going to run into one of our major disadvantages, an utter lack of trade goods beyond raw materials. It's hard to start up international trade in light of that, and Garrick isn't inherently predisposed to peace by any means. He found it wasteful to try and play to Brochard's strengths, and isn't fond of the thought of warring against people he considers subjects and has ambitions to reclaim suzerainty over. Nothing suggests Garrick is any less martial than the average gryphon, which is explicitly more martial than most other races, and he has a very martial and militant wife he trusts and listens to, to the point he's considering officially making her the supreme commander of his armies. I'll also point out Garrick was entirely willing to consider the possibility of occupying and conquering the League as a viable option, if an unsatisfying one, and the near-canon omake describing his efforts during the meeting presents a pretty damn threatening picture. I mean, he literally used an unsheathed sword and struck it to prove a point, finally insisting they could meet him on this now, or be at his mercy later. That is not the stance of someone who abhors violence or is unwilling to be domineering , and his number one priority as he stated it was to see his people thrive- I wouldn't be surprised if that was Peter the Great's stated priority
Name: Garrick Golden-Feather
Age: 36
Titles: Emperor of Gryphus, King of Griffonia, Inheritor of the Imperial House of Gryphus
Description: At first glance, you seem like a pretty average example of the Griffon race. Head of an eagle, body of a winged lion, standing perhaps a hair taller than most other quadrupedal species. It's not until one looks closer that they see the things that distinguish you from a crowd. An unmistakably masculine build, a strong, prominent beak, feathers and fur that seem to be perpetually well-groomed, and a pair of piercing amber eyes hiding a fierce intelligence. But you're no peacock, only known for your good looks; your talons are razor sharp, and though you are not as strong as your wife, you are still an apex predator, and your musculature reflects that. Your wife's workout regimen has also improved your physique, cords of taut muscle now visible across your body.

About expanding or not i will only say that in MLP ponies pretty much expanded into buffalo lands and builded apple farms on lands they lived for generations in the age of harmony no less (now I wonder is that in Celestias char), so i think that we should really rethink our ideas about expansion here, especially in postDiscordian era.Part of the problem is external trade is going to run into one of our major disadvantages, an utter lack of trade goods beyond raw materials.

I'm not saying we need to attack people out of hand, or that we shouldn't be willing to make friends, but the assumption here it's out of character or inherently wrong to be anything other than the defender is presumptuous at best. Especially when your proposed alternative, is leveraging trade as the most martial faction able to be chosen, that has an intrinsic penalty to foreign trade we've yet to do literally anything about barring maybe shroomshine. And that's not even being produced yet in a truly commercial fashion. Our monarch is just one factor amongst many in how we ought to pursue policy.
that was after they got unlimited love though. A well fed changeling might be capable of it, but such extreme transformations probably require quite a bit of energy. As long as love is a limited resource for them they'll probably try to avoid this kind of transformations.
I hope for them to stay as they were, basically no feeding on each others love, if they feed on other creature's love through history than they should continue to do so.
