Rulers of Ancient Times

CUT and PASTED DESCRIPTION:

Some of my own ideas as to who ruled the ponies before Celestia and Luna came into power. I imagined a kind of royal council made up of representations of the elements. (I’m aware of the tree, and I think I can work it in to the story.) Most of these are either based on G1 pony toys, or ideas for ponies related to ones existing in the show. Or both. Most are both. They are all Alicorns because in my story alicorns were once much more common.

Brilliant Bloom is based on this here pony. She was my favorite of the pony toys I owned as a kid, (I think I had maybe 10.) and the only one of these here that I did have the toy of. And I think she translates into FiM style rather well.

I had to modify Sunrise from Princess Sunbeam.

Princess Pristina Is one of the ones that is both based on an toy and has ties to somepony in the FiM show. You can probably guess who. But if you can’t, I’m not telling.

Prince Dusk was originally based on Princess Royal Blue, but I changed my mind and only kept a few elements. Like his eyes are the color of her hair.

Prince Pearl is based on Princess Tiffany whose UK name is Princess Pearl. He’s the youngest of the group.

I was originally going to find a pony to base Prince Glittering Gem off of to throw people off the scent that he’s Sombra. But i changed my mind. He’s Sombra. Or will be by the end of the story. But I did take his name from this one.
