Ah, Luna... Despite my hatred for her and what she represents (out of show), I won't bash on her here. I understand why thousands like her so there's no reason for a flame war here. The reason I brought this up was because I was debating whether or not to even do her at ANY point, but as my first month of weekly blogging I decided to make it (Special*) Princess theme!  So let's go right ahead.

Luna was tricky but for weird reasons. One thing is that she IS active but she just... sucks... Yeah Princess of the Night, controls over dreams, helps ponies out and all- but she's useless. Celestia raised the sun, moon and stars alone WHILE ruling Equestria on her own. Luna... She... helped a few foals directly, endangered thousands by making a demon that she accidentally let loose. Now I know Celestia ain't a saint by any stretch of the word but taking a look at what Luna does/did verse what Celestia does/did becomes muddy. Why make the comparison any way? I claimed not to want to make a flame war yet them words above are fighting words! What gives?

Luna is tricky. She can be considered a power type but she is extremely weak, mentally/emotionally/physically- she had to have the help of other ponies to deal with the Tantabis, She pushed back the Timber Wolf problem so Celestia to deal with, we never see her helping Celestia with things like paper work (which caught Celestia going through hug piles multiple times) and to say Luna is a Power type just doesn't fit. What about speed? Has she dealt with any of her problems quickly? You can say she deals with nightmares quickly but we only see her deal with a few at a time. This leaves her with Flight and frankly it does explain some of what she does.

One thing about flyers is that in Sonic Riders that HAVE to go above others and carry their team when the time comes. They are from the strongest but they have some crazy feats and I think that fits Luna well.  She's pretty crazy but she is best when working together with the right people. She's needed for obscured things and despite you being able to reach your goals without using her, she can make things easier. Plus she flies a ton more than Celestia any day. She is a Flight type.

Now what about her class? Well She's another ranger but one who is closer leaning to mage only because her specialized Dream Realm abilities. She helps ponies from  disance but still manages to be more hands on then Celestia and seems quite adapt to it.

Luna our Flying Ranging Mage...

What I didn't say they could only be ONE rpg class did I?

 

 

Now a quick run down for (Special*) Princess Month, The next entries will be as followed Cadence, Twilight, Wisteria (Gen3). Now I feel like some of you will be confused  but I am covering all generations (gives me an excuse to watch lots of MLP) but I feel like some of you are protesting. Why Wisteria and not Flurry? One, Flurry is still WAY too young to get specific classes. She can fit into any of them because she's a foal and too inexperienced (This goes for all foals). So I just can't classify her. Now Wisteria isn't an official Princess because the Movies she was in, Princess Promenade retconed her status at the end but that story (like all stories) have plot holes and frankly it has the largest glaring one of how out of all ponies was she the one to wake Spike? I know Spike is just a confusing plot point as is but seriously. I always thought she was an actual princess and she only turned it down because Spike didn't really know what a Princess should/shouldn't do. Either way I am counting her as one- hense the astred (*) I put after Special.
