  1. 1. Do you think others in royalty could use the Royal Canterlot Voice? (Ex: Princess Cadance, Prince Blueblood)

  3. 3. Could anypony who could use it, such a Luna, be able to teach any random pony? From Twilight to Lyra to Fluttershy to a Filly. Anypony. (This is not a choice of "SHOULD". This is a choice of "COULD")

I don't understand what the Royal Canterlot Voice really is, but I was wondering, do you think others other than Luna could use it?

I'm guessing Celestia chooses not to. T

here are also people in Royalty who may be able to use it, like Blueblood or Cadance, maybe?

Though, Fluttershy ALWAYS uses it. Whenever she talks.

 

Do you think it could be taught to anyone? Like, maybe Luna going and teaching some random pony, maybe Twilight?

 

What is it though? Magic? Something only someone in the royal bloodline could use?

 

(This is all on your personal thoughts on it.)

My guess is magical sound amplification. I would figure it to be just Luna and Celestia. If any other pony could learn it, they wouldnt use it because it would be stepping on their hooves and outside their station.

I personally think of Dovahkinn, then videogames/anime with supernatural powers through bloodline.

 

All Royals that we've seen have a horn, so they have magic in their blood.

 

Now, I think anypony that has magic in their blood could use the Royal Canterlot voice, even if not royal, but just not normal pegasi or Earth ponies. Though, learning this should take a LOT of learning, or a LOT of magic.

 

I really think it's magic. If nopony could use it other than royals, then it must be rarely used, because it takes a lot of magic.

Plus, it doesn't seem too logical. I mean, if there's gravity in Equestria, there probally is logic to a pony's body and how they could speak.

Dude its just really loud yelling. They probably just practice screaming and stuff. Its just her really loud voice that she probably practice. She does it to show that she has authority. Since when was screaming magic?

I don't think ANYBODY, ANYPONY, or anything could scream like that. Other than a Manticore of Dragon. Of course, these are ponies.

 

This "yelling" could probally knock stuff over, You know?

The Royal Canterlot Voice is most likely a complex traditional mix of spells that is custom to the Alicorn using it. It serves the purpose of both amplifying their voice to be heard and to both intimidate and awe their subjects with their power, as many royals would do in medieval times. It may have also been used to scare any enemies of ancient times that they fought between the times of Discord and Nightmare Moon.

 

Luna's Canterlot voice darkens the sky, filling the sky with a giant thunderstorm around the moon. Chilling winds begin to blow harshly, and if Luna was near an ocean, I would also assume the waves would grow in strength.

 

Based on this, I imagine that if Celestia ever used the Canterlot voice, (which she stopped due to the times changing and loss of need for it) the sun would brighten in intensity, the skies would clear, the ground would tremble, the trees would rustle but wind would not blow, fires would flare in size, and Celestia herself would be surrounded by a glowing aura. (She appeared to use the Canterlot voice very briefly in Lesson Zero when appearing to Twilight, so the glowing I believe is a part of that Canterlot Magic in use)

 

The lesser royals, such as Cadance and Blueblood may or may not possess the ability. Considering it's an ancient tradition, and both seem to be far younger than Luna and Celestia, they may not know it in the first place. It may even be limited to Alicorns only, making Cadance the only other to possibly learn it naturally. (Though I'm sure any unicorn, given the practice, may be able to replicate it to a more minor extent) If Cadance learned it, I assume the effects would be similar to a sparkling crystal light show, with a distinct feeling of gentle adoration towards her felt in the hearts of all who listen, given her particular talent and her affiliation to the...

This is what I thought of when I saw the title name:

"BEHOLD THE POWER OF MY CAPS LOCK!"

 

 

Just thought this was funny so I posted it... :)

 

Alright then, I figured it out.

 

ANYPONY can use the Royal Canterlot Voice as long as they have a keyboard and the ability to press the caps lock.

This is my theory...

On a more serious note. At first when i saw it I just thought it was a voice volume that was like customary for royalty in canterlot to use.

I suppose it could be magic. But I personally just think its the volume that they had used when Luna was around before she was banished to the moon.

It seems to be mostly for decrees... So let it be written so let it be done stuff... Like when Luna OFFICIALLY rescinded nightmare night. If Celestia actually banished a pony, she would probably do the verdict in that voice.

I'm thinking it could be done through magic, yet it is a kind of magic only taught to royalty. As far as magic goes, think of the Goblet of Fire, when Dumbledore uses Soronus to amplify his voice a number of times during the Triwizard Tournament. Maybe it's a similar kind of magic? lol

I think it's most likely specific to royal blood only. Luna and Celestia are the only ones who probably both know how to use it and use it (although maybe Celestia doesn't really use it). Other royalty could probably be taught how. I also think it's more of a genetic thing than magic, but who knows.

I saw something that could change my opinion -- I was watching winter wrap up and Twilight hyperlouded a poor bird (who was quite indignant after the fact). So it is apparent Twilight can voice amplify by a huge amount and probably could use some approximation of the royal voice if she really wanted to (without outside special effects).

Im willing to beat any Unicorn can use it if they are powerful enough maybe........I mean as silvadel pointed out Twilight could do it............Maybe not to the same extent of the Royal Canterlot voice but close enough

I was JUST about to put out all this but it looks like you beat me to the punch. I'd like to put out though that the Royal Canterlot voice is definitely something from past experiences that Luna has used during her and her sisters reign. Recollecting that Luna was banished for 1000 years ago and she is using that voice we can easily assume this was what was used back then.

 

Now you may ask yourself "why?" Possibly to scare her subjects and make sure she is known around the place. Celestia must have used it too if it was "Royal" as Luna is claiming it to be. So we can now assume there was a reasoning to scare and keep them obedient more than 1000 years ago. Maybe they were still trying to keep the three different ponies together and was forced in hand to act like that? Maybe there was a war going on and they needed utmost command at all times?

 

In the end she still uses it, a claim here she is not used to changes that 1000 years have gone by and she is still acclimating to everything around her.


Practice makes perfect; but if nobody's perfect, why practice?
