Hey could you amagine what Cupcakes would be like if Dashie came back in another body espavh time Pinkie Killed her it wold be boring and funny on Dashies behalf
Dash isn't gonna kill herself 30 times over is she? Coz if that happens and somepony comes across a mountain of identical bodies, they might tpeither think it was a mighty battle of Changlings or something else I can't think of
it's like playing a video game with god mode on except it just says god mode and what it really does is instantly replenish your health when you get hurt so then when you think you can shoot a big rocket into the ground at a distance of 8 feet you get wasted anyway
Moments like this make me wonder if I should get into that whole Dr. Who thing. Because I seriously had no idea who this guy was until you lot started bringing him up and I had to google him
Believe me, I know how it is. I've got enough Who friends talking about it. It really does seem like a solid series that'd be up my alley. My problem is that whenever it comes to any sort of new (to me) series (TV shows especially), I am compelled to start from the absolute beginning.
Naturally, for a show like Dr. Who, this is a somewhat... intimidating prospect.

1822075 You can safely consider Christopher Eccleston's Doctor as "the beginning". The new series is different enough from the old Doctor Who that you don't really have to worry about missing anything. (For example: New Who actually has a special effects budget. Old Who had "everybody open your wallets, let's see what we've got")
If you start from Eccleston, that's only 6 and a half seasons to get through (season 7 is currently on the midseason break, starting up again in March)
Regardless, especially considering the story you're writing, you should watch Doctor Who and the Curse of Fatal Death. It's a Doctor Who parody with Rowan Atkinson (Mr. Bean) as the Doctor (initially) and Jonathan Pryce (Elizabeth Swan's father) as the Master (initially).
The Curse of Fatal Death: Because regular death isn't fatal enough.
Through flaunting death, death will become angered, and do all it can to seek you out at every turn, even at times where it seems like it never belonged in the first place’. I’m pretty sure that means that, for as long as you’ve got this spell on you, you will, uh, end up in particularly deadly situations you might otherwise not have encountered.
Welp, hello Final Destination.
I think this little curse does a good thing for the storytelling. It justifies Rainbow getting killed so often and gruesomely, for one. Might it lead to some potentially fatal situations for the ponies around Dash, too?
It’s almost creepy how much like an actual episode this story plays out. Minus the adult themes, of course. The way you write the characters, the awkward encounters... Although I think that, after everything she’s been though (especially Lesson Zero) Twilight wouldn’t rule out help from Celestia so quickly. I could be wrong, though. Depends on character interpretation, I guess.
Since everyone else is mentioning Jack Harkness, "Captain Jack Harkness!" "No flirting!" I may as well bring up Rory Williams "Oh, Rory..." and his many deaths... And, the latest Companion, Oswin Oswald. Three, or, I think, four deaths, may be wrong, in three episodes.
So Dash is stuck with Final Destination deaths without the problem of actually being dead. This can only go well from here on out. Though I think telling Celestia about the book would be a good idea, I am sure she never intended for her book of pranks to actually get out.
Technically, she died countless times all over the doctor's entire time line, so there is really no counting her deaths. Jack on the other hand, can only die so often.
Always look for a good side of things.... unless you're just an angry person like me, then that'll never help. But in this situation... I think i'd jump off a mountain just for giggles.
Some questions. 1# I would like not being able to feel pain and just reappearing right after I die but would I die from old age and come back as a baby or the age when I got cursed? 2# If Dash is numb all the time then would that mean she not only couldn't feel pain but things like puppies or feathers or sex? That would be horrible.
2783026 Believe me, that curse is NOT fun I have a different version of it. When I die, my body begins to heal itself. Once it's completely healed, I come back to life. Oh, and I can still feel pain to a certain extent DAMMIT WHY DIDN'T I GET HER CURSE
Dash let out a growl of frustration and slammed a hoof against the nearest piece of lab equipment. The device vibrated from the hit, shaking the equally-sized piece of machinery that was precariously stacked on top of it. It wobbled back and forth, gaining momentum, and finally tipped over towards. It hurled towards the ground, striking Dash square on the back and snapping her legs out from under her. A long iron rod embedded on the roof of the machine drilled through her back at an odd angle, forcing its way through her heart and windpipe before popping out her chest and continuing down into the ground. Twilight screamed. Dash let out a few hurried breaths. She opened her mouth, but only a slow gurgle came out, followed by a small stream of blood as the shredded remains of her heart emptied its contents into her fractured throat. One final gasp escaped slinked out, and what little part of her body still left upright slumped to the floor.
2781752 If I had that curse, I'd fight someone 1+1 that would kill me easily, and keep fighting them until they wear down.(Hey, if ya can't stay dead, then you can win by exhausting the opponent)
This curse reminds me of the RESPAWN from TF2, except the RESPAWN is technology and the curse is magic. If you disagree or don't get it, the TF2 characters die and respawn back at their spawnpoints(A small difference from resurrecting on the spot), and it always leaves a corpse exactly how that character died.(Blood on the head/missing head from a headshot, gibs from an explosive death, disintegration from plasma-ish weapons, etc.)
(Joke) Alt. Title: You Only Live Twice, But Die Fifty Times That and OH MY GOD! YOU JUST KILLED DASHIE... AGAIN!
Oh my God! You killed Dashie! You bastard! XD
I jest. I'm very happy to see the latest chapter posted. I can't wait to see how this continues. :)
am I the only one envisioning little tombstones popping up everywhere Dashie dies?
So Dash has like a localized mix of Final Destination and Groundhog Day? Awesome.

I really like this. Tracking for the promise of epically hilarious Dashie death.
But, um, will you be handling this with humor, or grimness? Like, this could be a lot of fun, or it could turn dark, depressing, and horrible.
I was expecting, from the description and title, A Captain Jack Harkness type regeneration factor.
Instead, She can't feel pain (meaning she may not notice injuries), Which do not appear to heal, and on death essentially respawns in full health.
Oh, and an Entropy/Bad Luck Curse.
This is going to end badly. I can tell. This is a recipe for disaster.
Ponies meet Final Destination.
With infinite video game lives.
awesome.
ahahahaha
this has been a long time coming
dash always dies in the most gruesome ways
in fanfic
Well, Pinkie pie is going o be making alot of cupcakes isn't she?
And just imagine rarity's dress
And the Rainbow factory no longer will have a rainbow shortage
They keep killing Dashie!

you get wasted anyway
Funny thing, dispite Dashie being my favourite character, I have no problems with her dying as long as she's resurrected in some way or another.
Remaining cautiously optimistic about this story. (But seriously, you won't end up killing her off for real right? ... RIGHT?!)
If she just respawns upon death... she could singlehandedly defeat the entire Royal Guard, overthrow the princesses, and take over Equestria.
This is great. Ahahahaha!
Basically, you are fucked
The implications of that curse are kind of horrifying.
Directly, being involved in massive and fatal incidents like that tend to involve others being maimed.
Someone who is killable is gonna die because of this. I believe that it will be either Spike or Scootaloo. Just saying. Maybe Twi'.
why am i reminded of Captain Jack Harkness. oh yeah, the whole undying thing; its still a decent story.

1819958 Dr Who is a show you have to watch to understand(kinda like mlp is) why it is so popular.
if you do watch it, make sure you start with the new series season 1/2. its a better starting point than the latest season.

The Curse of Fatal Death: Because regular death isn't fatal enough.
Either 'interminatum corpus' (endless/unkillable body) or 'interminata corpora' (endless bodies). The latter seems to fit better.
2173857 I think it’s meant to be “Endless body."

i would so totally allow myself to die then line my house with my corpses to screw with people
Oh I bet she will have fun with this Nightmare night.
Baron Munchausen: And that was just one of the many ways that I died.

So if you died by incineration, then you would respawn in the fire/lava that burned you to death. On the up side, It would smell like a bbq for weeks!
