Age of the elder characters! How old is XYZ?

[TheMarkz0ne 962]

Might seem weird for a topic idea, but based on some observation, Celestia and Luna's ages being  sort of established. Where can we place the villains? Or just place really ancient characters? I have a rough outline of the ages of the characters.

 

Discord(????) unknown origin makes him the oldest 

Tirek

Adagio, Aria and Sonata 

Starswirl 

Queen Chrysalis 

Sombra 

(I think that Adagio, Aria and Sonata are 700 years older than Chrysalis and Sombra)

Celestia 

Luna 

 

I would like to get a discussion rolling and play the age game.

-keep in mind this is all headcanon-

 

-Discord and Chrysalis were born in the same year, but have different birthdays.

-Chrysalis looks to be a fine leader of her changelings, so at her little runin with Orion, she could be maybe... twenty-five in alicorn years.

-1 Alicorn Year (AY) would be 1,000 normal years

-Celestia could very well be younger, as she looked much less of age when she defeated Chrysalis and put her in a VOLCANO.

-Chrissy could have been very bored and waited about an alicorn year, as her sentence could  have been a thousand alicorn years.

-Celestia only wanted to banish Nightmare Moon for one Equestrian year, but she accidentally used the spell for one AY.

-Star Swirl comforted Celestia after Luna's banishment and allowed her passage to another world.

-Celestia is twenty-three AY old.

-Changeling army holes are permanent damage caused by Celestia and can only be fixed by the godess herself.

-Granny Smith founded Ponyville with her family and is a few AYs old

-ponies are long-lived.

-that being said I have no clue what I'm doing

Confirmed that Dr.Hooves is oldest pony.

It is canon that Luna was on the moon for 1000 years.  Before that, they got Elements of Harmony from the Tree of Harmony (with Star Swirl's help) & defeated Discord.  Then Luna went over to the Dark Side of the Force & became Nightmare Moon. So, at least 1100 years old & plausibly quite a lot older.

 

Twilight described Star Swirl as the greatest of the ancient mages, so plausibly 2-3 thousand years -or not

 

Celestia is supposed to be older than Luna (although that may be because Luna was in suspended animation on the moon).  If Discord was ruling EQ & the sisters overthrew him, he would logically have to be as old or older than them.

 

Otherwise, no clue in any of the episodes.  There may be something in one of the books or the comics, IDK.

Discord is probably hundreds of thousands, maybe even millions of years old since he is for all intents and purposes a primordial god. Tirek, King Sombra, Queen Chrysalis, Celestia and Luna are likely not much older than 1000 years old and Starswirl probably died centuries ago
