In the colourful town of Trotterton live some jolly magical ponies. They sing, they play and now their contented lives are about to be turned upside down. You have arrived.

Since you were a filly, you have trained in the arts of confectionary. You are expert at making cupcakes, muffins and all manner of sweets. Unfortunately, you are also a tormented, blood-crazed maniac.

You intend to bring this town to its knees in a glorious reign of terror. The only thing in your way are the town leaders who are aware something is amiss and will do whatever they can to stop you. For their personal safety, their identities are being kept a secret.

You have two allies in your quest. One is a twisted admirer, your disciple. She will help you with information, but she also knows your identity so she'll have to go eventually. The other is your pet, the only thing in the world that you regard with what could be called affection. Well-trained, this creature can be sent out to investigate the townsponies, find out where they live and what they do, as well as other tricks.

Meanwhile, there is the business of your sweet shop. Perhaps an occasional customer might try one of your 'special' muffins. And you might always learn something from that one unfortunate pony you have tied up in your basement. Toying with her might help keep your insanity under control. You don't want to look suspicious.

Sometimes it might be of more value to leave a particular town leader alive a while longer, but they all have to face the knife in the end.

With deduction, luck and clever use of clues you will know exactly when and where to strike until you are left as the ruler of the town.

Good for you.
