The End wasn't The End - Found a new home after the great exodus of 2012

@Ihhh 
She’s based in L.A. and is only on the show as a carry-over from Faust’s pilot demo piece. Even then, because she’s far away from the rest of the cast, she can only voice Twilight and only voiced her mother because that was a special occasion/relationship thing.
 
Still groaning over how people actually thought she voiced that one goth pony because it slightly resembled an exaggerated version of some character she did before. It was even worse when they did the same with Maud, like come on, they don’t even sound the same at all!

@David Dyster @621Chopsuey 
Out of all the choices in those lists, only Dobson is even the least bit probable. Seriously, you’d better brush up on Vancouver’s talent pool because all those L.A.-based players you’re so inclined to rattle off will never ever be in My Little Pony.

Well you have to remember that a female character especially among geeky guys such as ourselves will almost always by default receive some sort of positive reaction even more so if said character is well developed like the mane 6. It’s been like that since the dawn of geekdom. XD

Before it got appropriated by bronies an “alicorn” was what you call a unicorn’s horn.
 
Nope  
While it’s also the term for a unicorn’s horn, the term used to mean winged unicorn was popularized in the 1984 novel Bearing an Hourglass.

Can’t blame her. Before it got appropriated by bronies an “alicorn” was what you call a unicorn’s horn.
 
Still, nobody knows what “canon” means either but Curnow did elaborate on his definition. Unless he’s still wrong, hiding the truth, or DHX changes their stance on unwritten episodes then apparently very little is gonna change between how mediums handle each other.

If this was a girl, she would be getting waifu’d.

Reminds me of Reaper from Overwatch. He’s meant to be this vengeful, dark-clad pseudo-zombie assassin working for a terrorist organization, but in fanart/fanon he’s treated as a tryhard, gratuitous edgelord about as pretentious as an angsty teen. I keep thinking if it’s a key trait of this era that “dark” fictional characters, or even “dark” plotlines, are met with backlash irony – dare I say discomfort. Unless, like you said, the character is female, in which case the reaction is inverse.
