Man I thought of some good ideas for Magnolia, my character if she was in season 8, replacing the school of friendship.

It'd be stuff happening throughout the season and as it goes, the ponies seem more and more scared and her parents try telling Twilight but aren't strong enough.  I can imagine Twilight seeing an unknown white filly in a family photo and wondering who it is. And Her parents quickly hide that, and try talking about something else. And then Shining armour tells Twilight that his first memory is being saved from a fire. Twilight velvet simply says..."It's not time yet..." as Night Light looks at Twilightly Sadly.

Imagine the first scene when Magnolia shows up in ponyville, the sky is covered in black clouds and Twilight sees...something in the distance, and Magnolia soars into the air and slams into the ground right infront of Twilight in such a quick manner that Twilight is lost for words. Imagine that Twilight is seperated from her friends and its only HER and her parents, shining armour hiding in the castle as Magnolia searches for them.

And they are sort of like behind a wall, and Magnolia shot lasers through it and theres holes and the camera scene is showing them all behind the wall and you can see Magnolia walking behind it as she talks to them. Magnolia keeps Twilight's friends in magic bubbles after picking them off one by one but so it recharges and constantly powers up and her friends are all sad and feeling hopeless. I can even imagine her using Rarity for ransom, threatening to crush her with her magic as she attacks against Twilight and her parents, demanding that they tell Twilight the truth or Rarity gets it.

If this was replacing season 8, Magnolia would be the one to destroy the tree of harmony and the elements right infront of Twilight as she mocks and insults her little sister. Magnolia's arc would span the entire season, and not just be completed in a finale.

"Oh if these PATHETIC gems can stop me! We'll see about that! So much for harmony....hehehehehehe...HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAH!" *dark crystals rise up and destroy the tree.

"And as for your elements..." her dark shadows would rip them off the mane 6 and she'd set them at her hooves and then prepare some sort of attack and stomp down on them, shattering them to pieces...

"N-NOOOOOOO!" - Twilight screams, yet Magnolia's grin is so wide it almost splits her face.

Eventually, after picking off Twilight's friends one by one, Twilight and her family are on the run. Magnolia does not care about other ponies, she is only after Twilight and her family. Eventually they are all huddled in a corner or hiding, and Twilight puts up a barrier as Magnolia attacks.
