Your a bad guy using the elements of disharmony

[FNGRpony 658]

So your a bad guy making 6 elements of disharmony.

 

what six back ground ponies do you use ^^ to be your minions?  (Or trixie lol hell any pony who's not the main six).

 

And for those of you who are to goodie goodie to be bad,

Princess celestial has asked you to be a bad guy to test her favorite six students.

 

so not doing it would totally disappoint her, hell it might even drive her bananas.  You wouldn't like her when she's bananas.

[DaReaper 1,945]

You wanr backround, no first 4 i would use would be the CMC, make it as hard as possible for the mane 6 cause it would more then likly be too hard fir them to attack their own family as for the other 2 hmm trixie would work for another unicorn and perhaps lighting dust

[SBaby 660]

Ok.  It really depends on a few things.  If we're talking about being able to turn any 6 ponies evil (that aren't the mane 6), and having the power to do so from square one, then it would probably be something like this:

 

Sweetie Belle, Apple Bloom and Scootaloo

 

For the obvious reason that they're close to members of the mane 6.  Since they're close to the mane 6, it would be hard for them to battle the three fillies.  As for their Elements, it would probably go pretty straightforward like this:

 

Sweetie Belle - Greed

 

Scootaloo - Disloyalty/BETRAYAL

 

Apple Bloom - Dishonesty

 

 

Princess Luna, or Starswirl the Bearded - Evil Magic 

 

You've either got Celestia herself in a situation where she knows that if Luna is defeated, there's a chance that she could be sent to the moon again.  Since it's not certain that she was aware that this would happen the first time, she might be inclined to hold back against Luna, or possibly impede the efforts of the mane 6 in order to prevent her sister from being lost again.

 

On the flipside, Twilight having to fight Starswirl would really mess her up psychologically.  Her hero turning out to be evil could be the 'Luke fon Fabre Moment' in the series if played right.

 

 

Derpy/Ditzy - Element of Not-Laughter

 

So yeah.  Why her?  Well, you've got characters that mess with the mane 6 and characters that potentially mess with the Princesses.  So now it's time to mess with the audience.  Use the pony that galvanized a large part of the fanbase into becoming Bronies.  Now the audience HAS to be concerned about the fates of not only the mane 6, but the wielders of the Elements of Disharmony.

 

 

Sunset Shimmer - Cruelty

 

This isn't as much of a stretch as one might think.  Remember how she was in Equestria Girls.  Now she's back in pony form, and LEADING the Elements of Disharmony. 

[Scootalove 10,689]

Sweetie Belle - Greed

Scootaloo - Betrayal

Apple Bloom - Dishonesty

 

Princess Celestia - Evil/Corrupt Magic

 

Sunset Shimmer - Cruelty

[The Prime Reaper 180]

Why don't we create a single nigh-omnipotent being who is neutral turning out to be evil for him is Death?

 

Death is the only powerful being that can rival the power of friendship

 

Death - Destruction and Merciless

War - Hatred and Corruption

Pestillence - Fear and Terror

Famine - Greedy

 

Both 4 of them are tied with horses so it is very reasonable to making them as ponies.

Oh come on you mentioned the 4 horse men with out mentioning the 4 horsemen lol.  Shame on you.

Course they've done that joke on robot chicken.

 

Oh betrayel didn't even think to have that one.

 

As for laughter,

you would have dark humor.  Laughing at someone than rather with them.

 

ever hear mell brooks line?

"tragedy is when i cut my finger."

"comedy is when you fall down some stares break your neck and die."

WTF?  I am confused with your words.

So you want humor then so why don't add Joker or Bane or Q as Pony.

Dark humor is more interesting for most people because it is much well-scripted and basically worked harder, lasting longer

Normal humor is easy to make but effect doesn't last really long.

[Smarts 1,622]

I tried finding characters who were opposites of the elements of harmony. I came up with four. They are the opposites of Twilight, Rainbow, Fluttershy, and Applejack. It's all I have right now.

 

Trixie - Evil magic

Lightning Dust - Disloyalty

Gilda - Cruelty

Flim or Flam - Deceit

[I used to be a stranger 7,994]

Loyalty - Cowardice

Honesty - Distrust

Generosity - Avarice

Kindness - Cruelty

Laughter - Indifference

Magic - Power

 

Cowardice would be friendly and appealing to the aesthetic sense. Think like a Rarity-sort of character, but in the end everything that character said would be a poisonous slither driven by an intention to inculcate frustration, anger or sadness in others. It's easy to follow him since it's the path of least resistance, but it's a miresome anxiety that he evokes.

 

Distrust has no intention to be honest. He has no intention of doing anything but protecting himself from the world, even if, or especially, if it means at the expense of the safety or comfort of others. No one can be trusted, and not even Distrust's best efforts are good enough for him to have confidence in their ability to prevent danger or repatriation upon his head; feeble or sinister as they may be.

 

Avarice doesn't care who he steps on as long as he has the most toys in the end. He can trick anyone into following his footsteps because everyone has a price. Unfortunately, everyone also is just a pawn to his scheme to accrue wealth for himself.

 

Cruelty is the living embodiment of an abomination in a respectable or even admirable characterization. Nothing exists that cannot be corrupted simply for the indulgence of seeing things gone awry; in beauty, form, function, peace, amiability or health.

 

Indifference cares not for the emotions of others. In the end nothing truly matters. All happiness is just a joke too sad to laugh at, and all misery is a self-directed pride, indulging in a wanton waste of emotion. In essence, a character who sees death as the ultimate result but too pitifully passive to act upon any realization.

 

Power is like all of the others combined: what is strong is what survives, and what is weak deserves to be stamped out for its lack of initiative to continue existing. Strength is the only thing which really matters in the end.

 

Ultimately there is very little unity between them because each of them sees themselves as the ultimate force, and none of them see the capabilities of synergy. Such would be the opposite of how the mane cast operate, since the Elements of Harmony work together, as mutually inclusive forces of a whole. Each of the Elements of Disharmony  would fight forces of Harmony as well as their other Disharmonius compatriots.

Loved this post.

Loyalty opposite isn't exactly cowardice it's betrayal.  Flutter shy has remained loyal several times in spite of her cowardice.

As for laughter you suggested Apathy.  I think you'd have a hard time selling a villain that doesn't care lol.  I mean yes I see the destructive nature of apathy, but someone who was the living embodiment of apathy wouldn't exactly spread like plague lol.

 

I've struggled with picking a apposing force for magic myself.  Nothing entirely matches up perfectly.
Science?  dark magic?  Brute strength?  Nothing really hits that sweet spot.  Chaos maybe?

Sense i'm guessing equistra magic is about harmony and displine.

 

I'm not sure distrust can be seen as a necessary evil.  I mean you'd have to go to great lengths to make it a ruinous power.

I did not say apathy, you read my idea as apathy.

Laughter is just one of a plethora of emotional responses that people can give to  situation; one which evokes a friendly joy, complimenting, or despiting, the thing that caused it. Indifference is a refusal to have an emotional response, or indeed much of a response to connect emotion or aesthetic attachment of any sort. Apathy would be a synonym to laziness, in my mind, which is not the mentality I meant.

 

Betrayal is subversion of trust through action rather than thought. I said Cowardice because Loyalty in the show evokes a certain noble drive to be faithful to other [people], despite the challenges, so it's a relative measure of courage, the way I see it. Cowardice is refusing to take the initiative for helping others, or even yourself, when there is no reason not to apart from fear.

[Winona the Dog 1,984]

Id group together a whole group of dragons to be in my disharmony group. They are naturally powerful by themselves anyway.

 

Red Dragon would be given the element of cruelty

Green Dragon would he given the element of Hatred

Spike should have the element of greed

Garble would have the element of naturally l betrayal

I'd have the element of power

and some other dragon would have the element of deciet!

 

 

It would be the dream team.

[red cliff lo 3]

loyalty= treachery - flash century

honesty= immorality - trixie

generosity= malevolence - spike

kindness= malice - sunset shimmer

laughter= despair - flim or flam

 

magic is kinda hard...

 

magic= reality or ..... something- the doctor

 

in ''reality'' magic does not exist so...idk

And for those of you who are to goodie goodie to be bad,

Princess celestial has asked you to be a bad guy to test her favorite six students.

 

 

 

Element of Dishonesty

Granny Smith (Age reversed by Celestia) she taught AJ everything she knows and she grew up when things were alot harder. Alot more wiser about the world and the damage a little white lie can bring.

 

Element of Greed

Derpy Whooves: (paid in muffins) Promised if she can keep the evil act up, she can have muffins for life. Yes, thats an eye patch she'd wearing, now drop it.

 

Element of Treachery

Lighting Dust: Up for any chance to face off against rainbow dash. Not too hard to get her to join but hard to remind her she is NOT the leader.

 

Element of Despair.

Pinkemina Diane Pie: This is actually Pinkie from next Tuesday night. Theres an epic party on Tuesday night. She's playing scary because scary is fun.

 

Element of Cruelty

Cherilee: its always the ones you least suspect. Had to threaten to make her a teenager again to do it.

 

Element of Chaos

Twilight's Mom: Because I'm such a bastard. Also counts as a pyschological attack and only a mother could keep this rabble in line. Also doesn't want twilight to be hurt and I needed a more competent mage than Trixie.

 

 

[Celtore 2,770]

Alright, time to go fake-villain! I have my over the top evil laugh prepared, so lets start building this team...

 

Spitfire

Derpy 

Trixie 

Granny Smith

Bloomberg

Zecora

Shining Armor

 

They aren't exactly all direct counters, in fact, Twilight and Dashie have two direct counters each, Granny Smith directly counters Applejack and Zecora is a general villain. Hopefully she still has that cloak from her first appearance in season 1.

Well if i had to pic a opposing force to magic

I guess Necromancy,

 

it is a school twilight sparkle would touch with a 10 ft pool. 

though you could argue if the undead are dis harmonious.

 

I mean what's more consistent than the living dead?
