ggg-2 3,553 April 15, 2017 Share April 15, 2017 Don't get me wrong, I've no doubt Thorax will be a great king, but as far back as his introductory episode, Thorax has been shown to be about as timid as Fluttershy at times. 1 Don't be a nerd.

JonasDarkmane 19,785 April 15, 2017 Share April 15, 2017 I think he might have grown a bit, but even so, the Changelings might prefer the kindness than what the previous leadership was like. 2 Signature by @Kyoshi Ask Me Matsunaga Hisahide's death https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BKT5Khp3-0U Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmarston1 5,959 April 15, 2017 Share April 15, 2017 We haven't seen him do much in the role of the changeling's new ruler yet, so there's not much we can go off of yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brainstorm 4,108 April 15, 2017 Share April 15, 2017 I think Thorax is a great leader, he's just nervous because he's never been a leader before. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Foxy Socks 2,599 April 15, 2017 Share April 15, 2017 He seems better in the new episode. He was alone and afraid before, since he was the only changeling like that (that he knows of). He gained a lot of confidence after the Finale. My OC: https://mlpforums.com/page/roleplay-characters/_/foxy-socks-r9861 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pony.colin 156 April 16, 2017 Share April 16, 2017 Spoiler If Twilight's theoretical fantasy/theoretical simulation is true indication of Thorax as a leader, then yeah I would agree he seems to timid to be a leader. Granted, that was only Twilight's simulation and not a reflection of what Thorax can do. Although if Twilight was right though, I wouldn't be the type to be really excited about his new accession but I'd also be the type to be somewhat forgiving and just follow along if things are already going well. But who knows, we haven't seen the real Thorax perform yet, he might turn out well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We haven't seen him in a true pressure situation, which may reveal his true capabilities as a leader. "I still believe that peace and plenty and happiness can be worked out some way.

weesh 690 April 16, 2017 Share April 16, 2017 Timid: "showing a lack of courage or confidence; easily frightened." remember the end of last season? when the chips were down, he has the courage and confidence that he needed. also, he seems like a consensus builder. which is a better quality than blind confidence or ordering others around. 3 Send me pictures of ponies in hoodies Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Indeed; when push came to shove he went straight up to Chrysalis disguised as Starlight and faced her. And before that he had no trouble leading all his former compatriots on a wild goose chase disguised as Trixie. He may be humble, but he's not timid. Are you a Spike fan?

You just nailed it. That last part particularly. I do think that his quiet unassuming nature could make some underestimate him, and I do think he will have some struggles adjusting here and there, but I'm not about to call him too timid to lead either. It would make for a great episode though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MAIKUN 262 April 18, 2017 Share April 18, 2017 IMO his voice should have been changed...Why not get Paul Dobson to voice Thorax in his new form instead? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Le Trotteur Sauvage 13,051 April 18, 2017 Share April 18, 2017 Yes he's too shy to be a leader and he doesn't sound or act like a leader. I think he's not prepare for lead !!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CastletonSnob 3,074 April 18, 2017 Share April 18, 2017 (edited) I want an episode about this. It'd make for some great development for Thorax. Spike could try to help him, but he doesn't know what to do, so he brings in Ember to give him advice on how to be a ruler.
