Orias Augustus Sparkle is the perfect name for my season 10 villain.

In religious texts, Orias is a high-ranking demon responsible for teaching astrology and the study of stars. I can’t think of a better name.

In his final god form (Elder Alicorn,) He is known as Orias Morningstar. In my story, Celestia and Luna are treated as Elder Alicorns because of their long age.

Cadence, Flurry, and Twilight are all alicorns, yes, but not elder alicorns. Orias boosted himself to the status of elder faster in his transformation because, after the final war, he absorbs all the other twelve essences from each of his fallen vessels—Some of those vessels being alicorns.

However, this transformation wasn’t perfect for Orias. It was a forced amalgamation, with Orias simultaneously compelling all twelve essences into his body. Once a living creature, each essence retained its biases and was aware of Orias’s manipulation. This, along with Celestia’s final assault, sets the stage for Orias’s eventual downfall.

And the biggest kick to his ego was that he felt like he cheated death and won.

In contrast to Twilight, Orias is a character filled with sadness and pity, a stark reflection of Twilight’s opposite. He embodies the actual antithesis of Twilight in every way, serving as a chilling reminder of the perils of a life devoid of love.

Twilight, growing up, was always raised with love; she had parents who could guide her in the right direction, but Orias did not—his parents left him at Archmage Starswirl’s doorstep and seemingly abandoned him.

Although not evil, this Starswirl did not understand how to be a parent; he was a mage for their kingdom. He was sadly unable to prevent Orias from seeking power.

And then, because Orias sought the darkness fostered by Grogar, he became too powerful for the royal family to put him down for good—they had no choice but to attempt a sealing on him, even if it got botched and he went to Equestria rather than his intended destination.

…Oopsie poopsies.

oc:aurry appears to be a nickname for oc:aurelleah.

Stingerbutt needs to imply butt and Sky Stinger.

I logged in for the first time in an eon to a flood of notes about some items being deleted. Because I don’t have security insights into things, is there a ‘best practice’ way to request additional information from staff about the reason an image was removed for a specific rule reason, when it’s unclear why the deletion rule was cited?

For a sample script, how would this look for a defeat on a vessel:

Mean Twilight’s Demise:

The ground around Twilight, Hero, and Friends trembled violently as this epic battle raged on; the struggle for supremacy cast a veil of uncertainty over the outcome. Mean Twilight charged her beam, met with a defiant response from Twilight. “Your end is near, insignificant creatures,” Mean Twilight taunted, deftly evading Twilight’s counterattack, leaving both mares locked in a tense standoff.

Twilight’s beam rebounded from one of the chiseled walls of the stone arena, hitting Mean Twilight squarely on her chest. Her body was thrown to the ground roughly, and she felt a hole through her chest. A pillar of dark, ethereal aura rose from her body, and she felt death approaching. “Is this… the end? Am I… dying?”

“Mean. I know you were only doing what Orias wanted. But you know he was only using you, right?” Parts of Mean’s body began to dry up and crumble like sand as her body began to collapse; she groaned from the pain as she tried to stand up to fight but just fell back pathetically and accepted her end.

“I knew I was just a pawn the moment I was slated for this war—I was aware of how expendable I was to him.” Mean sighed, melancholy laced in her tone; she tried to cover up the hole in her chest using her forehooves, but then those felt numb as they, too, crumbled. “The better me has won—all I was was a fabrication—everything about me from whence Chrysalis created me was false.”

“Mean… I’m sorry about what happened to you. I’m sorry that you couldn’t be your own person.” Twilight tries to console her fallen foe as she leans down to listen to Mean’s final words.

“I tried to run from that ignoble truth—that I’m a fraud. I held such contempt for those who would call me fake. I was brought into this world to be your foil. Funny, that was true in multiple ways.”

“But why did you choose to fight us if you knew that Orias had betrayed you?” Twilight saw more than half of Mean’s body crumbling away as she breathed lightly.

“I wanted to prove to myself that I could be worth something, that I could be the real Twilight, even if that were a farce.” Mean then closes her eyes after wishing the genuine Twilight goodwill.

“I never believed you were as bad as Orias; I knew you had some good in you somewhere. Goodness is a genuine thing, Mean.”

“The real one wins—as it should be. There is only room for one Twilight Sparkle—” She paused as she continued, “—You have to stop him; you have to stop Orias from ascending to godhood. If he succeeds, everything will change in Equestria.”

After that last utterance of words, there was silence as her body faded entirely into dust as that dust flew in the breeze. “Goodbye. Mean Twilight.”

Thanks for your time.

Now I understand that I’ll be burnt at the metaphorical pyre for this, but I’m okay with that. I cannot connect with Gen 5. Story-wise, I consider that series like Borderlands 3 and Borderlands 2 like Gen 4. The writing for both was infinitely better in the original.

For example, the new Mane 6 is like a carbon copy version of the original Six from Gen 4, but with millennial behavior instead; it’s like trying to put water over a grease fire—it’s a terrible idea. Their personalities are too similar to Twilight and her friends that it’s uncanny.

I tried to give it a chance, like genuinely trying to get into it, but it feels as if Hasbro completely missed why people like me loved Gen 4. The same could be said for the Borderlands franchise; Handsome Jack was easily the greatest villain I’ve ever seen in a video game in a long time, and that’s one hell of an accomplishment.

He was cruel, narcissistic, and downright hilarious. Then, in that sequel, they gave us The Calypso Twins, which honestly doesn’t even come close to stacking up with the likes of Jack. Their motivations are also entirely different, with one being far more sensible than the other.

Similarly, Nightmare Moon was a far more threatening villain; even if she was seldom seen in the series, she made a strong impact, just like Jack did in Pandora. Then, you have Opaline, who, like the Calypso Twins, was so telly about everything they did. They were predictable and boring, and I had difficulty taking these villains seriously.

Do you know who else I can compare Opaline to? The Cameleon from Kung Fu Panda 4. You know you’ve set the bar significantly low if you can connect them like that. Lord Shen was much like Jack, Tirek, Chrysalis, and Nightmare. They did very little telling and much more showing, giving you a reason to fear them. They were also unpredictable, calculating, ruthless, and pure evil—as a villain should be. That’s why I feel they work so well as villains; they’re effective because they were written rather nicely.

If there was anything good I could say about Gen 5, it would be that Allura is a far better villain than Opaline, a lot more menacing, and not to mention stronger and much more competent. Hasbro certainly made an improvement when they designed her.

Please, let’s be civilized and discuss our opinions as rationally as possible; thank you.

Hello if your reading this you must be insane trust me I would know XD anyway welcome too a fucked up little world!~

Today is a special day here in America as the total solar eclipse sweeps across a portion of the nation. I made my way to the path of totality to see it’s beauty and when I thought of the date it reminded me again of the Event. The War of the Sisters. With it’s end being midnight on April 8th, that became a sort of Armistice Day for both factions in the fun little April Fools Day competition. And as the Event ended in stories and roleplay with an eclipse, how fitting that a year later an actual eclipse happens.

And so I write this as a small tribute to one of the best weeks in Derpibooru history. Nothing to deep or complex. Please enjoy!

This place was once a battlefield.

I can still see it sometimes. The smoke rising through the air, ponies and creatures of all shapes and sizes clashing blades and launching every manor of spell they could think of at their fellows. Historic buildings reduced to rubble, trees and grass burned into ashen mud. The smell of blood in the air. Tartarus come to life, all while the eldritch eye of the moon blocks out the last warmth of the sun overhead.

With the end of the war on what came to be known as Armistice Day, it became a memorial to those who fought to their last breaths for their vision of a better Equestria. Overtime the mud turned to grass, the ruins left standing covered in mosses and ivy. In the center was a statue. Ponies, Thestrals, Changelings, all with hooves raised holding the Flag of Equestria. At it’s base was a pedestal adorned with the emblems of the New Lunar Republic and the Solar Empire made from the purest of gems. Between them a plaque read in gold letters:

I left a bundle of flowers at it’s base, a bouquet of roses, colored midnight blue and white. Among them a single red rose. A sign of respect for those I called enemies, allies and friends. It felt right to come in my full Night Guard armor, to have my Lunar Guardian badge pinned to it, and the tatered flag of unity drapped across my back. No be without it when paying my respects this day felt wrong, like a dishonor to those who lived those tragic days.

I turned my head to the sky as night seemed to fall around me. The last vestiges of Bailey’s Beads glimmered off the edge of the moon as totality once again engulfed the landscape.

I had no fear this time. There were no screams, no sounds of war, no flash of Nightmare Moon and Daybreaker’s skyshattering fight above me. Just the sounds of cheering, of lovers kissing, of little foals laughing and oooing at the spectacle. This wasn’t the eclipse of war, but an eclipse of unity.

In the moments of totality I thought of the creatures I now think of as family. Members of the Night Terrors, one of Twilight’s bodyguards, Celestia’s personal advisor, the squadron of plane-pony-cat hybrids that soared through the skies. I think of those who I met in passing. The Red General, the sneaky Rat who defected, the valiant Grey knight who came to sing the song of Unity despite being on the opposite side in that conflict. I think of those who stayed behind to keep the logistical sides of the world running while we fought on the front. I think of those who came and went, those who threw down their weapons, and those who fell in those dark days. All of us heroes in our own rights.

The moment is fleeting, the song of Unity still ringing in my head as the Diamond Ring overtakes the skies and sunlight floods the world again. Where on that horrid day the sun stayed Eclipsed for nearly the full day, this one barely lasted 3 minutes.

I gave a breif bow to the statue as the ponies around cheered. I knew they were cheering for the sun’s return, but in that moment they sounded like the cheers as the battles came to their end and life could be rebuilt. Maybe one day mine will be fully rebuilt as well.

For now though, I have a mansion of hungry mouths waiting on me. Sleep well, little book.

Addendum Note: We are not sure how this new page and entry was added to the diary. It and the flag have been sealed behind glass since they were donated. No one at the Eclipse Viewing at Memorial Park remeber seeing a pony in guard attire there. Countess Sweet Bun has not commented on this addition. Curious.

Potentially, also add a solar eclipse implication, unless that tag is meant to be taken literally (in which case it needs to be removed and replaced with one of these tags).

Best to imply Celesia & Luna’s character tags, too.

I would like to request tag descriptions for the following:

cum fart: A depiction of expelling cum from the anus, often in a stream. Despite the name, posts aren’t required to include flatulence onomatopoeia. This tag doesn’t imply fart fetish.

The next three tags were created here by me.

gape fart: Refers to a sound an anus makes during or after penetration, but is caused by air being pushed out, not intestinal gas. Therefore the tag doesn’t imply fart fetish.

dildo pushing: A depiction of visually pushing a dildo out of an orifice, be it the vagina, anus, or otherwise.

dildo shitting: A depiction of visually pushing a dildo out of the anus. Despite the name, this tag is not coprophilic.

small pupils, tiny pupils -> shrunken pupils

Logic: Princess what are you doing?
Cadance: I heard a little rumor about your meeting with my aunts.
Logic: You shouldn’t believe everything that is said.
Cadance: It’s true, that’s why I plan to find out for myself.

The meeting is rumored to have lasted all night.

Alias mlpeg and mlp eg to equestria girls.

The first one is a junk tag some people just stubbornly keep using, no matter how many times it gets removed. The second tag I found while checking if there are other similar tags.

So alias them and get rid of them both, once and for all.

Lightning eyes should imply wingding eyes.

There’s also the related lightning pupils tag. I can see two ways of handling this:

Which option do you prefer? Do you have any other ideas?

gold horn = golden horn

fish bowl -> fishbowl

Both designate the same object. Only difference is that the latter has 108 hits while the former has 79 (and only 8 of those overlap).

Recent April Fools giving the pages Desktop Ponies reignited my interest with them. Though the Desktop Ponies group on Deviant Art is largely inactive, and many of them didn’t accept commissions anyway. So seeing here if anyone would be able to create some animated sprites of my OC as commission.

So the plot is RD is stuck in a time loop reliving the same day over and over again and accidently brings Twi in the loop who is her gf btw. I can’t find it anywhere and I’d greatly appreciate the help, thank you!

fanfic in the description should alias to story included

also: video link in description should alias to video in description

They seem to be the same thing.

I might suggest aliasing fluffy text -> fluffy pony text even though the former is used much more, just because the latter is clearer as to what the tag means.

Then, have it imply text, probably.

The owner of Fimfetch, which is a archive website for PonePaste was known for censoring specific stories for containing content that he disliked or found to contain “foalcon”. Although he often was lazy with taking down these stories, he spent most of his efforts making a lengthy list of users and usernames from Derpibooru, Ponebooru, Discord, Ponepaste, and other websites over the span of multiple years. Out of the users on the list, it includes artists who “by his own judgement” were found to have “made foalcon content”, users who “participated in foalcon servers” despite having never posted foalcon or having only said satire relating to foalcon, and completely unrelated users who the owner disliked for “saying naughty things”.

Obviously such list only gained traction when large pony discords starting basing their “blacklist” off of it, and banning otherwise innocent users from entering their server, saying reasons like “we don’t want to associate with you”, “your on the Fimfetch foalcon list”, “your on the MCL list” and etc.

Thankfully the private server that hosts this list got leaked, and the collaborators inside of it (multiple admins/moderators from different pony related discords) were found to have conspired towards “filtering through private reports” and “further expanding this blacklist”. Even though the list was intended for “foalcon” there are multiple users who got banned in one server for a offence not related to blatant paedophilia or grooming, and ended up on the list, including people and artists who had “foalcon” related content in their derpibooru favourites when the owner (revealed to be DataByte, who’s discord handle is “databytebrony”) was “independently examining” each report.

In DataByte’s server, the collaborators were outed to be as follows with their respective servers.

databytebrony - BronyTales

frostflare - Ponyville Plaza

latent_logic - Everfree Northwest

emperor_sombra - Ponies React!/Confetti’s Bat Cave

astrolazuli - Ponyville Plaza

stormshadow_cote - Ponies React!

daringshepard - BronyTales

gabrizzy - RandomPlace

phoenixfire42 - Equestria Daily

comradesparkle - Equestria Daily

As for evidence backing up these claims, you can gladly find the chat logs of DataByte’s “secret police” server at
