Villain Idea: Trixie

[Bright Honor 2,671]

I think Trixie can become a villlain in Season 3. I know that she was kind of the "villain" in Boast Buster, but I am talking about as a serious villain!. Here is how it could work:

 

Today I was talking about how I want to see Twilight's Venom. Venom is a villain in the Spider-Man. Now I don't mean have Trixie bond with an alien lifeform. I mean as a dark-mirror image villain who has essentially the same powers as the main character and hates the the main character and may even be jealous. This kind of angle can totally work with Twilight and Trixie! Lets pretend Trixie comes back and challenges Twilight to some kind of magic match. Twilight refuses at first, but accepts after trixie bullies Spike. Then Trixie is easily defeated. Trixie is also jealous of what Twilight has. Twilight has great friends and family. Trixie could be a character who had essentially none of that, sorta making her the way she is. Through her jealousy, humiliation, and hatred for Twilight, Trixie could go through a Nightmare Moon-style transformation. Gaining great power as well as going crazy, Trixie can become a threat to Equestria and attempt to destroy the Mane 6. Legendary Emerald's post on my most recent status helped me come up with this idea.(Thank you, LE!)

 

Thoughts on this possibility?! I am open to anyone's thoughts!

*waits for tom the diamond to protest this idea loudly*

 

i think trixie could be kinda a villain, but more of a "ruining the mane 6's day" kind of villain, like a bully sort of, i dont think she could be a threat to all of equestria

Trixie, I respect her, and don't hate her, but I don't love her either, I don't think she would be a villain, after all, Queen Chrysalis is voiced by the one who does Trixie, therefore explaining it.

^Really? Didn't know that.

But I like the Twixie shipping too much ;_;

Trixie's too cute to be pure evil.

[Bright Honor 2,671]

I see. Remember, its her jealousy, humiliation, and hatred of Twilight-due-to-being-humiliated that is making her way. Perhaps throughout the course of the story arc, she starts to see ther error in her ways.

A Nightmare Moon type villian is SO boring, no way I'd want it repeated. MLP needs more moral ambiguity, which is why Trixie is nice.

 

I say bring her back, but make her MORE of an anti-villian (just like an anti-hero, an anti-villian defies most stereotypes of villians and promotes moral ambiguity). If you think about it, Trixie/Discord truly defy the villainous archetype; bringing Discord back is difficult, so bring on the Trixiefest!

The very worst I could see Trixie being is a prankster. She's more self centered than outright evil; so I wouldn't find her suiting the role of full-fledged villian. She could still have an antagonistic returning role, though.

^That is sorta what I was saying in my second post. Like after she is defeated, she thinks really hard about what she has done and if she ever reappears afterwards, she slowly but surely starts to become. That is another reason for my Venom reference: Venom starts bad but he becomes an anti hero as time goes on.

I would like to see the magic competition between the two like in "Of Mares and Magic". Just without all of the shipping...

The Great and Powerful Trixie would finally be actually great and powerful! I think it could be fun to see.

[Krystal 1,468]

That sounds like a good idea but I doubt the writers would go that angle.

Fixed it for you.

 

Alien parasite-infected Trixie would be the coolest thing ever.

 

All joking aside, I think it would be awesome to bring her back. I can totally see her as one of those villians that crept around in the back, spreading rumours about the mane 6 around, tricking each one of them into thinking that one or the other hates them. The chaos would be DELICIOUS.

To be brutally honest, your idea seems to be too well planned for it to work with the kind of story pattern MLP follows. C'mon, at best Trixie would be that nuisance kind of character.

[Bright Honor 2,671]

^Well to each their own. Personally, I think it would be a good idea for her character. People have always wanted to see Trixie to go up against Twilight, so what better way than to have her beaten then come back, more powerful than before?

 

And I guess a parasite controlling Trixie through her jealousy would be cool too.
