MLP Villain Timeline- Pony of Shadows (Main Stygian)

1. Stygian the Unicorn

Stygian was a unicorn who was a scholar who liked to study. He wasn’t magically exceptional nor he was a hero. He lived around the time the Celestia and Luna were teenagers meaning beyond over 1,000 years ago. He mainly liked to study mythical sea creatures. One day he went to the beach to collect sea shells to study but on that day he had an interesting encounter…

2. Stygian and The Sirens

During his findings, he came face to face with The Dazzlings. He was in awe of Adagio and her sisters at first but then Adagio slipped and mentioned how she and her sisters wanted to be empowered by the surface world and spread their negative magic. He managed to get away from them and try to look in his books on how to stop the sirens, but he was too late and his town except for him ended up getting under the sirens spell which caused him to set off on a journey to find a group of Equestrian heroes.

3. Assembling a Team

With his village under attack by The Sirens, Stygian set out to find the Equestrian heroes of legend starting with finding Rockhoof, and then finding the others: Mage Meadowbrook, Flash Magnus, Mistmane, Sonambula, and StarSwirl. Meaning that Stygian was responsible for bringing these heroes together to fight the Sirens.

4. Stygian’s Internal Feelings

Despite, Stygian bringing the group together he feels like he’s nothing special compared to the others Pillars who have done other brave and heavy feats that normal ponies wouldn’t be able to. When it came to the battle against the Sirens, Stygian stood on the sidelines and watched the others banish the sirens to another world. Since that day Stygian felt inadequate and wanted to change that so he could fight alongside his friends.

5. Stygian vs. StarSwirl: A Battle of Ideals

In the 2018 comic annual, Stygian along with the other Pillars have to rescue Celestia and Luna after they get captured by dark forces through a mirror into a alternate dark dimension of Equestria due to Starswirl showing the girls about different portals to other places. Out of the other’s Stygian is mainly against Starswirl for his decision to show the girls the mirrors, which put them in danger. He notes to Rockhoof that after the Pillars are gone, the princesses would only write about StarSwirl’s exploits without the other Pillars hardly get mentioned in Equestria’s history. But despite him being vital in saving the princesses, he still had those thoughts in the back of his mind.

6. The Stolen Artifacts

Months after the Siren defeat and the princesses being saved, Stygian never lost sight of his quest into finding ways to be as strong as the pillars so that he can fight alongside them and after months he finally figured it out. It was a ritual where he needed a symbol of strength from each of the Pillars: Starswirl’s Journal of Sorcery, Rockhoof’s Shovel of Strength, Mistmane’s Flower of Beauty, Meadowbrook’s Mask of Healing, Flash Magnus’s Shield of Bravery, and Sonambula’s Blindfold of Hope. Stygian stole the items for his spell in hopes that he could make copies of the artifacts but he was shunned and cast out from the group.

7. The Rise of The Pony of Shadows

After Stygian was cast out from the Pillars, he wandered Equestria until he came across the Well of Shade and discovered an apparent entity known as “The Darkness or The Shadow” which spoke to Stygian of a power beyond that would make him stronger than his “friends” and he accepted. He merged with “the shadow” and they became one and Stygian was turned into The Pony of Shadows. With his new dark powers he went to claim vengeance on his former friends.

8. The Pony of Shadow’s Initial Defeat/1,000 Year Return

Despite being a formidable force, StarSwirl had a plan to banish the Pony of Shadows, by the Pillars using their symbolic items to magically seal him away in limbo but themselves along with it. Unfortunately, 1,000 years later Twilight, Sunburst, the Mane 5 and Starlight free the Pillars and unintentionally also free the Pony of Shadows.

9. The Pony of Shadow’s Defeat/Stygian’s Return

Despite the Pony of Shadows being free, he was weakened from limbo, so he had to find places of darkness in order to get stronger but due to Equestria being more modernized, he only had one place to draw power from which was the Well of Shade. Despite that he was pushed back into a portal by the Elements and other Pillar’s items and Twilight was about to push him in when she saw Stygian inside of the “the Shadow” and instead she decided to hear his side of the story. There was a lack of communication between Stygian and the Pillars and Stygian went behind their backs to steal instead of just talking to them about his feelings and the Pillars were at fault for not letting him explain instead of shunning and casting him out. StarSwirl realizes he and the others were wrong, and the group frees Stygian while banishing “The Shadow” into a portal. The Shadow was no more while Stygian was free and reunited with his friends.

dad villain au: did emilie just. not consider at all that adrien was literally dying at the time. wow

she's in the habit of deciding when Adrien's suffering is acceptable, and if it is, she'll just fix it later.

Prompt 301

Ellie, during one of her stints of what do I do with my life right now, decides to, with the help of her Original Dad-Person (Look he’s aging and she’s not and it gets less questions the older he gets if he says daughter instead of sister with how the Fentons are getting older too) creates a Boo-Tube channel. No, not a Youtube channel, those are stuck to a single dimension.

Bootube on the other hand? Due to being through the Realms (and wow is Tucker getting so much income from creating it) is interdimensional. Which is so cool honestly. And she doesn’t know what to do at first, and honestly there’s already so many travel blogs that she kind of just… decided to do something that she wished someone had done for her and her brothers and Danny when she was new to the world. 

So she creates the channel CAAW: Clone Awareness, Accommodations, and Welfare. They had to learn things through trial and error, but maybe she can help someone out there learn how to find their own selves, or even help someone not melt.

The Timeline Shifted, and Sam is conflicted...

So! A Timeline Shift occurs one day (thanks Barry) while Team Phantom are in the Ghost Zone helping Clockwork with a few things. As they are going back to the Human World, Clockwork gives them another cryptic piece of advice.

"Unfortunately the world will not be the same as it once was. Samantha, you will find this especially Jarring, but keep an open mind."

Before they can ask what happened, he shoves them through their own respective Portals, and Sam lands in an Alleyway in Gotham.

She is confused, but a green glowing sticky note appears in front of her telling her 'go to the nearby park, you will see what I was talking about'

She walks over, and sees a lady with Green Skin tending to some flowers. Her head is covered by a Hat, so Sam can't see her face.

They strike up a Conversation, and Sam finds that this Lady is great. She loves taking care of Plants, she hates it when Companies pollute the Earth, and she even has Plant Powers just like Sam!

It occurs to her that she never asked for the Lady's name, so she asks and the lady lifts her Hat to reveal her face. And Sam freezes.

"Oh, sorry for not introducing myself. My name is Pamela Isley."

Thats her Mom's Maiden Name.

This lady has her Mom's Name.

This is her Mom.

Oooooooohhhhhhhhhh shit.

I've been thinking some binggeyuan Thoughts.

So, people usually write any binggeyuan as after the bingge vs bingmei extra which is super valid and narratively makes a lot of sense, but I've been thinking about dropping a bingge from earlier in the PIDW timeline into Shen Yuan's world. I'm talking like. Reverse transmigration straight from the abyss.

He finds Xin Mo, his seal gets fully broken, but instead of getting out of the abyss to get his revenge plans started he gets yeeted into modern day China, nothing but the clothes on his back and a system to guide him through it. He's bitter but he's also been fighting tooth and nail to survive for *checks watch* five years. He's like. 3/4 black lotus. Xin Mo hasn't quite had the time to sink its claws in.

I really do just have the mental image of Shen Yuan picking him up from out of an alley cause he looks like he got mugged. like a dirty kitten.

[chiropteracupola]

I destroyed a bond of friendship and respect / Between the only people left who'd even look me in the eye / Now I laugh and make a fortune / Off the same ones that I tortured / And a world screams, "Kiss me, Son of God!"

[lauriewildfree]

Perhaps in an alternate timeline Terrifier 3 and Joker 2 got released on the same day which caused another Barbieheimer but horror/clown themed and the entire Internet ended up been all infested with fanart of Art the clown and Joker/Arthur Fleck hanging out as besties and kissing

Prompt 273

You know what? We need more Good parents Fentons. 

And you know what else? Technically, Jack helped Danny defeat Pariah via the use of the Ecto-Skeleton. And like, that’s his son, his baby boy. Sure Danny is and has always been a mommy’s boy, but it doesn’t change that fact. They’re both already feeling horrible about the fact they could have hurt him, they could have hurt their son- they have hurt their son, killed him with their inaction and never again. 

So when these oversized jello-eyeballs try to insist that their baby, their precious baby boy, take a crown? Become a king when he’s not even out of highschool, when he doesn’t want it? No. Hell no! That is his Danny-o, his baby boy who was terrified of his own parents! 

Which is how Jack, despite technically still being alive even if so-very ecto-contaminated, became the Ghost King. 

And for some reason there’s several ghosts rather happy about this- oh, these are his Danny-O’s ghost-parents? Not-ghost parents seeing as some of them have never been anything but a realm denizen? That’s really fascinating- y’know what, want some fudge and we can exchange childcare- Maddie dear come over and meet our co-parents apparently!  

Now it’s not all easy, but they’re trying their best, and that’s all that can be asked. 

…

Which is perhaps why it’s so exasperating- or as Maddie would put it, downright infuriating- that it is now, almost an entire year and a half later that the Heroes finally arrive to investigate. Well, at least he has plenty of fudge since it’s almost time for the council meeting.

I went through the Erha book 5 interior illustrations when it came out and offhandedly read the confession scene. That was my first impression of Erha. I thought it was gonna be cute, ok? I really thought it was gonna be nice and sweet. That was what got me into Erha.

Then I found out about the 0.5 timeline.

The confession scene is still one of my favourites, like ever, and the rest of Erha won't change that. The horrors persist, but so do we ;)

Here's B9 as one of the book 5 drawings!!

[A bit abt the AU so Erha SPOILERS]

So Bingge goes back in time, and PIDW is pretty much the 0.5 timeline. Xin Mo reminds me of that flower from Erha that makes Mo Ran hate Chu Wanning and forgets about any positive feelings he had for him and made him become Taxian Jun (fyi I'm like half way into book 1 and the spoilers that ik are all over the fucking place. I know about the stupid flower and Shimei). Luo Binghe's Xin Mo eats away at his mind and fucks him up the same?? I think? I know Xin Mo doesn't work the same way, but it still makes him act on his impulsive thoughts and penchant for violence.

What I DO know is that white lotus Binghe and Mo Ran 2.0 are just <3 they need to be kept away from bad things fr.

And fics!! They're not Erha au's, but they have a similar premise>>
