Sometimes there's a character that seems misplaced; a character whose dreams and aspirations have always been at war with the narrative. Rainbow Dash loves adventure. This is blatantly displayed in the opening song, in her choice of reading material, and in her thrill-seeking attitude. However, instead of becoming an adventurer, a fairly easy thing to do inside FIM, she has been chained to a boring position of an aerial rookie acrobat by the ironclad, immovable destiny of her petty childhood dre
Despite receiving development some characters never seem to learn and grow.

It goes without saying that each shard will have different characteristics and inhabitants. There is another world with that sort of composition: Alara. Can we use this sort of color/attribute logic to construct the world of MLP? Well, it's better than aimlessly searching Google images that's for sure. I will try to remain honest to the concepts our griffin hawkers have borrowed fro
