Rarity Paige Belle 1,854 June 8, 2014 Share June 8, 2014 There are headcanons floating about that the crystal ponies are descendants of the G1 twinkle eyed ponies, who after becoming blind from being forced to work in mines, had their eyes replaced by crystal! By the way this happened in the G1 comics! Beautiful, Stylish, Fabulous AND evil! What more could you want? (Thanks Kyoshi for letting everyone use your sigs!)

Espurr 449 June 8, 2014 Share June 8, 2014 Hm. Seems to happen genetically. Or just stand near the crystal heart. That's how Twilight and her friends got turned crystal. I don't care what pony you like because I like everypony! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You should try and get hold of the G1 comics. I can't remember the name of the issue but Applejack saves the twinkle eyed ponies by pushing the jewel wizard off of a cliff. Unfortunately though the comics were only published here in the UK: 1 Beautiful, Stylish, Fabulous AND evil! What more could you want? (Thanks Kyoshi for letting everyone use your sigs!)

If I happen across any G1 comics I'll be sure to grab them! I think G1 AJ only appeared in the first special and not in the show proper remind me if I'm forgetting an appearance. 2 Nightmare Night Fan Club signature by Scootaloodle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oblivion 20,275 June 8, 2014 Share June 8, 2014 Well, I would say magic. Because think about it the mane 6 all became crystal ponies for a short time before they left the crystal empire. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kay Dreamer 884 June 8, 2014 Share June 8, 2014 I think being born under the sphere of magic from the Crystal Heart gives them their permanent altered appearance. That said, I have an absurd amount of headcanon for the Crystal Ponies, from why they were so isolated from the rest of Equestria to why there are so few Unicorn and Pegasus Crystal Ponies. (We've only seen a handful of each.) The Crystal Ponies are my absolute favourites. =D 3 The Crystal Minstrel Pony Tumblr Kay Dreamer's Roleplay OC and Cast Character Archive Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used to be a stranger 7,994 June 11, 2014 Share June 11, 2014 Since ponies and little girls are made of sugar and spice and everything nice[citation needed] it is obvious that they will crystallize if in an aqueous solution over a long enough period of time.

M'aiq the Liar 5,804 June 11, 2014 Share June 11, 2014 By being born under the influence of the crystal heart. The heart temporarily effects other ponies when it activates, and I'd guess being born in its energy field would cause permanent alterations. 1 http://mlpforums.com/page/roleplay-characters/_/vera-yeoman-r5921Muh pleb tier OC .http://mlpforums.com/blog/1663/entry-12477-pony-waifu-wedding-13-maiq-x-fleetfoot/ MLP forum's #1 Fleetfoot fan also married to fleetfoot <3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashen Pathfinder 16,162 June 11, 2014 Share June 11, 2014 I would think they're just a separate; but lesser-numbered race of ponies. Even though the mane 6 did turn to crystal after the crystal heart did its thing, they couldn't automatically switch between different states like the crystal ponies could in the lead up to the crystal heart. I think being born under the sphere of magic from the Crystal Heart gives them their permanent altered appearance. That said, I have an absurd amount of headcanon for the Crystal Ponies, from why they were so isolated from the rest of Equestria to why there are so few Unicorn and Pegasus Crystal Ponies. (We've only seen a handful of each.) The Crystal Ponies are my absolute favourites. =D That actually sounds about as good as anything else; in truth.

NightGlade13 120 June 11, 2014 Share June 11, 2014 (edited) Are Crystal ponies different than earth ponies in power form?

Imagine though if he was!

Imagine though if he was! King Sombra vs. Lord Tirek! Well if tirek was out for 2 or 3 years he would've known about cadence taking over the empires. Obviously he had Intel on cadence already. so why not the empire? This leaves a big gap in the story. They need to branch out on all the characters.

Villains included Well, I am speaking of a time before even Nightmare Moon coming about; when Tirek & Scorpan had first ventured into Equestria and when Star Swirl the Bearded was still around, which was way before Cadence's time. My timeline is this: 1. Celestia & Luna banish Sombra; Sombra curses the Crystal Empire 2. Later Tirek & Scorpan venture into Equestria to steal pony magic, Scorpan has a change of heart and Tirek is imprisoned. At this time it is reasonable to believe that the brothers hadn't even heard of the Crystal Empire, IMO.

He stl could have ventured little by little learning about what had happened since his imprisonment. He clearly new about cadence when he started stealing magic. Sooo Idk what's your thought on this?

All right, fair point there. My guess is that the ponies of Equestria were his priority; especially considering it was Celestia & Luna that had imprisoned him. Had he succeeded in defeating Twilight and stealing her magic, then he eventually would've made his way to the Crystal Empire. The Crystal Ponies, IMO, were just low on his priority list. Probably on level of, say...maybe the griffons as well.
