Lady Esme (Under Construction)

By ShadowLadyEsme

• May 27, 2012




Age: Ageless

Gender: Female

Species: Alicorn

Appearance: Esme is an alicorn, only slightly taller than Princess Celestia. Her tail lifts up and curves down with the same color scheme (increadably dark grey with electric blue highlights) as her hair. The tips of her wings, back legs, and muzzle are all a light electric blue color. However, her cutie mark and leg markings are an almost aqua color, though slightly darker. Her eyes are also primarily this color, despite the light amount of fading blue that surrounds her pupils. Her horn is abnormally long and smooth and her crown only emphasises this point farther. Esme wears the common royal garments with some slight adjustments. This being that she refuses to wear her hoof cuffs on her hind legs and wears an extra accessory on her tail. The jewels on her pointed crown (cuffed around her horn), royal "necklace", hoof cuffs, and tail cuff are pitch black, even darker than her base fur color that is, in truth, not completely totally black. When angered, her pupils shrink untill her entire iris fills her eye. However, while her markings may change color due to her moods, her eye color never will.

Cutie Mark: A specific tribal design symbolizing her ability to survive.

Personality: Lady Esme suffers from Multiple Personality syndrome. She isn't easily angered, but she becomes a completely different pony when she is. On any normal account, however, she can be easilly described as manipulative and intelligent, yet observant and even a little helpfull. On other occasions, she can be sadistic and evil, seeking only to destroy her enemies. Because of their differences, Esme's two personalities can be seen arguing on rare occasions. Despite this, there is always at least one thing both of her personalities agree on...they are the rightfull rulers of the throne.

Backstory: Born into royalty, Lady Esme was Princess Celestia's eldest siter, born several years before her. Upon birth, her parrents feared for her life and eventually abbandoned her in a nearby forest where she was forced to fend for herself.<br /><br />You see, Esme's parents believed she had cutiepox, a common disease in that time that resulted in death for many ponies. Rather than kill their first born filly, they descided to leave her behind durring one of their visits to the deadly and dark forest.<br /><br />Little did they know that Esme would survive in the harsh terrain. That she would spend years plotting against then for what they had done to her. And, all the while, she would create her own kingdom. And hence, she became the Shadow Queen, controling all the darkness in Equestria of which she descided to continue to supply. This was a very stategical move. She was therefore able to watch her parents from afar without them noticing and, when the time came, she attacked.<br /><br />Her power was far greater than that of her parents and, once killed, she took the opportunity to gloat and fed upon their corpses. She had no way of knowing of Celstia and Luna at this time and they were, luckily, spared.<br /><br />Once grown, Esme learned about Celestia and Luna and their growing kingdom. This was also around the time that she learned of her birth rights. She was the rightfull ruler of equestria, for without her, all of the creatures, both large and small, would incinerate under the heat of the sun and fall blinded due to the moon. She was furious.<br /><br />She had been angered many times before, yet, for some odd reason, this time it caused something inside of her to snap. Her eyes began to turn a bright blood red and her markings seemed to do just the same. Thus Esme's darker half was born. To this date she watches over Equestria. Plotting. Waiting for the time to come when she can take over her rightfull place as ruler.<br /><br />However, her plan wasn't as simple as that, in fact, it was quite complex. For to kill Clestia and Luna would most sertainly plunge her world into darkness and, while this thought was pleasant, she would not have her subjects put through such misery. No, she would have to think of soemthing different. Some way for her to rule over her kingdom without her siblings.<br /><br />So, after searching far and wide. She finally found the creature she was looking for. A male Alicorn of pure descent. He was gnarled and fearsome, but he would be the perfect suitor. And hence, Silen was born. An alicorn crafted from her mother's very essance, taking a major part in her mother's plan. And for a long time, Esme forgot about Equestria to raise her child. Her gorgeous, insane child. A stronger bond had never been seen by human eyes, held together with three essential things. Love, hate, and insanity.<br /><br />Silen would soon replace her mother's siblings...and nowhone would ever know.
