Head canonn and a grim dark idea, the best one I ever had.

Recommended Posts

Now i'm putting this in sugar cube corner cause this would never fly on the show.

But it's still i feel an awesome idea.

And despite being grim dark its not necessarily about blood and guts.

 

Okay 1000 years ago star swirl the bearded was Princess Celestia's apprentice. 
I know what your thinking "Oh is this gonna be a discord thing?"

It could be, but that's been done.

 

But this is the odd thing.  For 1000 years, Prinesss Celestial "allegedly" hasn't had another student. 
who buys that?

 

I think alot people assume or at least find it possible star swirls life likely didn't end well.

Huge expectations, unreasonable expectations,

 

How many times do you think Princess Celestia's trails so to speak took a pony, chewed them up and spat one out?
And i know what your gonna say,

"Oh Uncle No Good, if that was true their would be some story, of it happening,

some sign they existed."

And it hit me.
There is a highly magical race, of what may well use to be ponies, a race that seems to carry a mysterious grudge against ponies every where.

 

So what if the changeling Race were all of Celestia's cursed failed students over the years?  Cursed if you will

 

Who else wouldn't the changeling queen be unable to fake nice while trying to blend in?
Why else would her Hatred be so unreasonable strong not just in her but her entire race?

 

I mean She does beat Celestial, what if she was star swirl?  Leading an army of his fellow failed students on a march on the holy land.

 

I mean the show would never do this, just kick around the idea ^^.

Hmm, this idea intrigues me but I do not like it. Let's just say that, people are assuming that Discord is Star Swirl the Bearded so let's not assume any more theories.

 

well the star swirl part was just a tac on.

 

I mean if all the changelings are failed apprentices,

the changeling queen would have to be some one extra special.

 

That wouldn't have to be star swirl.  Making star swirl would be the most efficient and laziest way of doing it lol.

 

And i like the "intrigued but not liking it."

i've seen people sat through

Elfen leid who hated it just cause they had to know what happened.

that implies good writing ^^

Celestia probably has had students, just not 'personal protege's'. I bet Cadence was one for awhile as she was a pegasus before so probably wasn't fully able to use her horn to call her magic when she became an alicorn.

Well wasn't Sunset Shimmer a failed student of Celestia's? If I remember right she was, but I'm not entirely sure... (If she is, that kinda proves this whole thing wrong)

Good eye and yes she was.

And not the whole thing,

 

part of it was to ask the very question "did she have other student" and if so how many.

 

I could do a cheap cop out and say megan Mcarthy said E.Q. isn't cannon.

but i like your answer.

 

how many  screwed up students does Celestial have floating around out there?

No, not exactly.
Sunset Shimmer didn't get the kind of magical strength and power she wanted and -thought would get with Celestia - quick enough and went her own way. Not the same as failing.

Oh... I don't know why but I was almost sure Sunset Shimmer was a failed student (It's been like a month or two since I last saw the movie, so I kinda forgot)

The real reason why Celestia and Luna are immortal and nearly all-powerful in the Equestria.

Why changelings and other evilish stuffs exsist because of this dude!

Death.

 

Why?? I came up with theory because i have seen no pony dies for centuries except Sombra.

The thing is intriguing here! How long grandma smith lives? (Nearly for hundred years, too imba!)

Where is cemetery on Equestria?? No funeral ever?

With the abscence of Death, the planet of Equestria is virturally immortal in which kinda against the law of nature.

I believed that the death of King Sombra, the first death of centuries proving that nature and time are working against ponies.

Death can able to reap Sombra, the fall of Equestria is imminient and the apocalypse is coming!

Eternal life is a forced instrument to demonstrate the theory of tyrannical Celestia.

She somewhat forcing all creatures in Equestria to have eternal life which no one ever asked.

Celestia is trying to humaliate Death.

that's some fine propaganda lol.  your just mad she doesn't let you sell your wears in her kingdom.  And to be honest that's why alot fans would like to go there.

 

death is well as they say awesome, as long as it happens to someone else.

It's an alright idea, but there are a few problems.

1. To what we know about Star Swirl, he was male not female. It's just odd that he would become a female.

2. In the episode Hearts warming eve, Star Swirl has his own pupil, Clover the Cleaver and that play was before Celesita and Luna. So he is already a master at this point and would not become a pupil again.

3. Changelings don't hold any grudge towards ponies. They hate every race and just want to eat their love. The comics have shown us already that they kill anything that has love.

4. It's hard to believe Celesita had an army of failed students. You think after the 5 or 6 going evil, she would most likely give up by that point. Also I believe Celesita would at least try and help them and not just throw them out.

So this idea needs a little more work before I believe.
 

No funeral ever?



Watch hearts warming eve again. To what it looks like they are having a funeral for a pony. Also they aren't going to just kill a pony a pony. It's a TV-Y rated show. There are just certain things you can't do in this kinda show and death is one of them.

At least, you have understood my idea.

He could be a thumbnail or a mention or a special guest.

But it is hard to make him a villain. That is all i want to say!

 

 

 

Watch hearts warming eve again
 

I watched it and didn't find anything suggested Death.

The only thing that concerns Death is the episode of Crystal Empire Part 2 in which Sombra was the first pony ever died.

Let's look one more time.

 

 

At 0:25 in the song, there is an old pony reading a book and he kinda looks like a Priest and on are right of him is a wooden box. Which kinda looks like a coffin. That already shows death exist in this world.

Where is the cemetery or any burial site?

In a funeral, there must be a burial site near to the coffin. Beside the coffin looks pretty much like a chest.

The cutie mark of that old guy didn't prove that he is a priest but just a mere story-teller or an investigator.

Death is already existing in both fictional and real world, the problem here is what that Death is unable to claim the souls of ponies in a hypothetical barrier to prevent Death to come and reap.

That's totally a coffin. Besides, if you want proof he's a priest, how about the clerical collar he is wearing?

It's a funeral, no doubt about it at all.

Yes, it is. Well, technically it's an unnamed colt, whom someone has decided to name Button Mash, but I guess that won't matter shortly.

Precisely why I said "I guess that won't matter shortly." :) Many characters have fan names, which end up being the name everyone knows them by. It doesn't mean the name is right. If the writers decide to give them another name, that is the correct name. Or they get a name from merchandise or some other official source, like DJ-Pon3 from the original Equestria Girls advert/music video (many fans still call her Vinyl Scratch, justifying it by saying DJ-Pon3 is only her stage name) For me, Derpy is actually Derpy, because she was called by that name in the show itself, before Derpygate hit. Trixie was never given a second name in the show, but from the merchandise, we know that her second name is Lulamoon, so Trixie Lulamoon it is. Unless, of course, they gave her a different second name in the show...

 

For all the other fan named characters, the fact is that technically they are unnamed. That just gets conveniently forgotten so that we can all know who we're talking about, but it's still the truth of the matter.

 

I believe Colgate is actually called Minuette in the merchandise. Carrot Top is actually Golden Harvest.
