I always believed blissy was a pony representation of the color wheel. She has a large range of color in her rainbow main and tail, showing the light spectrum along with pure black and white. Mix these colors together and blissy can make almost any color you can think of Just like how she can be anything she can think of. An artist, an animator, a wife or just an awesome rainbow horse with a colorful soul we call all depend on ^^
One thing I have constantly had to point out, especially when keeping in mind the Journal of the Two Sisters written by Amy Keating Roger with the help of Lauren Faust herself, is that Celestia and Luna were born _before_ Equestria was even a concept...let along a nation. More, it mentions in this book that there was at some point other alicorns, that the Royal Sisters were raised by such, but these alicorn have been mentioned no where else. This, for myself, suggesting that there was a race of alicorns but either got whipped out or simply forgotten in the sands of time. Flurry Heart thus being the first born alicorn in Equestria makes sense, and does not conflict with the existence of Celestia and Luna. Also, born alicorn based on the words of Lauren Faust and implied by the book mentioned above.
The reason I didn’t like alicorn oc is because... Everyone wanted to be an alicorn so it was everywhere and I was sick of it. Now that it died down, I’m fine with alicorn oc now Edit: Blissy, you’re the alicorn of Learning 😁
Rosie Sievers hey didn't you turn into a alicorn Everytime you enter Bliss's channel atleast that's what you said in the Luna eclipsed review and it happened so why didn't it happen here?🤔I'm confused
Hm, I wonder, could Bliss be the Alicorn of Entertainment? I mean, you're a very entertaining and funny person, and I always look forward to seeing you/hearing you in projects.
Thats could explain the colors too! Entertainment can be so different and you can have so much creativity with it, which could be represented with all of the colors. Plus, the bad entertainment (mockery, bullying and stuff) could be the black and the nice and innocent entertainment (cartoons, toys and such) could be the white.
I do love it when Aeon pops in. Though threatening him reminds me of the scene when the pirates were interrogating Gonzo and Rizzo in Muppet Treasure Island. "This won't work, he likes it!" Now if you threaten to withhold your abuse until he complies....
Aeon, you are my role model! When the jerks on the mmo I play are being mean to my friends, a quick Aeon act shuts them up real quick and makes my friends laugh. Teach me more, senpai!
As a character designer, this really speaks to me. Any design can be used. Be it, in mlp' case, an earth pony, pegasus, unicorn, or alicorn. Development is key to making a good character.
Yes he is a demon, but he's a common demon, according to some there are three kinds, the devils, satins appreteses, and common demons. Common demons are generally horned, tempermental, and have far fewer inabisions, but can be just a kind as humans and even some common angels. Ok thus is just an obscure threoy here. But it's a real belief, I don't believe it but it's very intresting
*Sees Blissy telling Twink to give the letter to Rosie, than remembers my own door is next to Rosie's.* Well, nice to my door make it into one your reviews for once lol. Personally I am with Aeon about the "inconsistencies" of the writing staff when it comes to the show, especially with alicorns. I would like to get an Alicorn History episode to clear this up, but one can dream. And I love ya both Ladies, but adding Aeon to the mix will always be a plus in my book lol.
mew the mew why? cause blissy has a wild card for magic, can fly, has one of the most dangerous pets known to pony reviewers, teleport, and she could easily blast RAINBOWS at asriel? Meanwhile, asriel can shoot stars, use swords, has pyrokinesis, can fly, fire a RAINBOW KAMEHAMEHA, and can erase matter? I think asriel's more controlled.
i AM curious...what about an Alicorn OC that, as part of his backstory, (yes, the OC in question is a guy); is not EVEN an alicorn, but rather, a mighty Archangel who is a literal conduit of God that takes on the form of an alicorn just to blend in with the populace, and keeps it a fiercely guarded secret out of a concern that those around him are not ready for his true form? would THAT make a good Alicorn OC, or is that another potential set-up for a Mary-Sue-type Alicorn OC? i would love to know your thoughts.
I'm thinking of making my ponysona (OC with very little to no backstory or rarely mentioned backstory, used to represent self) a reformed changeling. Since they've been proven to still be able to transform, I could transform into other beings to talk about subjects other then MLP (for example, a cat when discussing Warrior Cats OC's). They would have the same color scheme due to a natural magic disability, and to be recognizable on any video. Their name is also a pun. What do you guys think of the idea? Want some opinions!
@@RubianaRosevine Ah, thank you! I retired the idea of making her my sona after awhile, but she's since become a character of her own. Let's just say the hive didn't so much like her inability to fully shapeshift
Something I'm curious about and I was hoping you'd be able to answer me about is, how smart is Twink? He seems smarter than an average human, but not enough to be classified as near human intelligence from the looks of it.
I Love Aeon's Personality. :D I really just want to know more about him. :D Great Video Btw, I have had the problem with Alicorn OC also. I tried to write an Backstory for him, But not gotten So Far.. Just a bit into his ''Old life'' But Anyways.. lately it has happened that I had him turned into an Pegasus, and there is an Reason for that also.. more then just tired of the Hate. But again, I still need to work on his Background.
Man, your quality has shot up since the early days, Miss Bliss, better microphone, more visually interesting style, you certainly seem to be more confident, I'd say you've done nothing but improve.
Okay here are some points I'd like to get at: 1. You missed one crucial point in the topic of alicorn birth as stated in the journal of the two sisters. Celestia and Luna ARE natural born but not to Equestria. As Aeon, blasted devil horse, said the sisters took over the ruling of Equestria. They weren't the party who founded it. Popular theory believes that an alicorn race does exist elsewhere outside of the show perspective but nothing as of yet has proven it true. 2. The two biggest fatal flaws in an alicorn OC are design and backstory. I like how you pointed the latter out but I don't like how you ignored the former. Of course that could apply to ALL OC's. But another point to a backstory has to revolve around character association and how close they are to well known or canon characters. It's okay to have SOME connection but it's not okay to just say they were that characters child and are therefor OP. 3. You should REALLY get rid of that book before he visits you while you sleep.... 4. Can you tackle the subject of hybrid OC's next? -Culture Shock
I am thinking you hang out with Aeon because he is a good bad influence and you need a little darkness to balance out all the sunshine and rainbows...and he is a good friend...more or less. I do wonder if Aeon does what he does because he is into evil and the devil...or he just enjoys being bad.
Yeah, he probably just enjoys being bad. I have nothing against her personality in any way, but sometimes a little darkness can help express yourself better.
I'm okay with alicorn OC, *if they have negative traits* like other ponies have, I mean not even the alicorns of the show is flawless. What I don't like is *Mary Sue's and recolour OC's* But I guess it's ok for everyone to make their own OC rather it's alicorn, unicorn, pegasi or earth pony. just give them negative traits too, nopony is perfect :)
i did actually have an alicorn for a charactrer i was originally a unicorn as a philly(i think i spelled philly right). i was a pink pony named tavi and i had a pikachu cutie mark with a heart around it. I had a strange power to turn into weird creatures. (they were pokemon). nobody knew what they were and i was considered the oddball in the group. then while i was exploring, i found a portal in a crystal cave that led to the pokemon world. i went in and the first thing i saw was a wuole world of beings ive seen before. i realised i was turning into these creatures and i had became friends with alot of them and i protected them from harm anyway i could. then i realised i loved being around pokemon and my destiny was to help, protect, and care for pokemon. when i got a little older to 12 years of pony age i got wings even though i didnt discover why but shortly afterwards i was called princess tavi but i said there was no need. i was still the girl i knew and thats basically my story. i still turn into pokemon and help anyway i can.
MysticVaporeon 370 See, this is ridiculous. Can I suggest something else? How about you were a changeling lost in the forest, abandoned by your herd because the only thing you could turn into was strange animals (Pokémon). You saw how lovely to ponies of Equestrian were you walked into Ponyville without knowing what you were, being young and naive. They started attacking you and you managed to teleport out of there but you were badly injured. You fell asleep in the cave you teleported into, then after you woke up you looked around the small cave and called it home. Since it reminded you of home (the changeling hive). After you completely healed from the attack you started trying to hunt for food. You were hungry for love since you haven't had any in your entire life, not being able to turn into a pony and all. (You survived like that because changelings are able to share love, but were too selfish to. Your mother FIGURE wanted to keep you around so she gave you some of hers, but then you got kicked out.) You tried to turn into something other than the odd animals but couldn't. In frustration and hunger you stomped loudly and a wall at the end of the cave started crumbling and revealed a rip in the fabric of the universe. It was left from the fight of Princess Celestia and Nightmare Moon. Curiosity overwhelmed you and you stepped in, stumbling into the vast world of Pokémon. Familiar with one in particular, a cute pikachu. You transformed into her (the pikachu) and finally realized what you were turning into. Now you live in the Pokémon world, studying and playing with the Pokémon.
Fantastic video, its great that the 3 of you shed light onto a subject that many people are ready to wage war over. ^^ I have an Alicorn OC, and proud of it. when it came to developing her character, I took a unique approach that few others have. ( A rather extreme one too ) I have had this OC for 18 years, I started her at birth, and just had her grow up over time, and it is all these experiences over these 18 years that created her backstory, and developed her personality. She has more than a backstory, she has actual history. A key point though, my OC is completely original ( Original species ) , I only made her an Alicorn when I became a fan of the show. hehe ( Will I change her back ? Dont know, we will see as her story continues to develop for years to come ) ^^ Thankyou for the video Bliss, Rose pal, and Aeon.
See I am related to the Queen of England (Distant cousin) But seeing as the original symbol of England was a Dragon I went with a dragon Hybrid as my OC.
you know i actually have at least two alicorn theories, the first is that it was the tree of harmony calling princess and luna and celestia to the elements, and when they reached the cave, the power was strong enough to turn them into alicorns, and while yes their power has faded, but they're still powerful enough to remain alicorns due to taking control of the sun and moon from discord and for moving them for so long, which would explain why they were able to live for so long and became so, hindered, when compared to what they were discribed within so many history books, the other is still somewhat the same, the obly difference is that they're power is still super strong, but they are afraid of letting out they're full power, think like with superman's famous line where he said and i quote 'i feel like I'm in a world made of, cardboard, always taking constant care not to break something, to break someone.' thats what an alicorn is, they're not OP, by being to OP and having them know it, anyway those are my two theories, did i miss anything?
Really helps that there is so much to choose from now. I can remember the days when your only choices were Earth Pony, Unicorn, Pegasus and maybe Dragon. (Alicorns were very frowned upon at the time but mostly it was due to a over saturation of Gary and Mary Stu's.) But now we have a lot of free range. So for example, I have a halfling. Half bat pony, half earth pony. The earth pony keeps him to heavy with not enough magic to fly but can still glide with the bat wings hidden under the cloak. (My first OC was a Pegasus with little imagination behind him. Now I feel I have more room to be creative. What a great time to be a fan. :D)

Shameless shilling aside (and doing it again since I already did it on the first alicorn oc talk in this channel, cough cough "The Rising" on FimFiction) I think what comes down to making a good Alicorn OC is both writing the character and directing what their purpose in the story is to be. With Stella, she had been given the purpose of taking revenge and having festered and been consumed by hate and rage from how everything she thought was happening in her life was instead something she didn't want and couldn't handle (which does somewhat put Starswirl responsible since he didn't even consider Stella's views or asking what she wanted ["Folly of Celestia" gives a solid good boost in that direction]
Great collab Blissy, and I have a feeling Aeon was only behaving just to mess with you and Rosie at the end XD Anyway, there is one thing about Alicorns that I feel you would like to take into consideration from a friend of mine on his own Alicorn Analysis video here ua-cam.com/video/B9W30SfhTro/v-deo.html
I want to make a one-robot Alicorn army that transform into a jet fighter, a tank, a scout buggy, an orbital super weapon, and a defense turret. Now, if only I can draw.
I would love to see Aeon and my OC together in a room. I can picture her noticing his excitement and try the opposite just to see what would happen. Like instead of hitting him over the head with a hammer, giving him hugs and squeezes.
My Alicorn OC backstory, as abridged as possible, goes like this: Having been exposed to immense magical power from a magical explosion as well as at the exact same time, put on the Mask of Loki, becomes Green Thunder, alicorn of creativity. After a horrible first night, the main cast are hesitant at first to take him in, but Twilight wants t study this new magic, so she lets him stay in the castle. What follows is a crazy amount of crossovers, fourth wall breaking and romantic comedy up the wazoo. But honestly, I like it that way. As for whether or not the magical energy sent him to the Realm of Alicorns will be in the backstory is iffy. I might make it vague to make things a bit more flexible.
I created an alicorn Oc who’s cursed with invisibility and loss of voice for driving Starswirl nuts with his spiteful attitude and selfishness. He is like the mythological version of Loki and has a deep jealousy towards Discord. His name is GreySky Fade. Just couldn’t resist sharing him since this vid was on the subject of alicorns. 🤷🏻♂️
Much of this can be applied to other things apart from the MLP universe. Many times new characters that are related to powerful established characters that have those powers are shunned. In a roleplay that I am doing, we had to rewrite the canon just so people who read it wouldn't be so judgmental and shun the work that we put into it just because of the power we appear to have.
From the sunlight casts a shadow, in the night lies moonlight, from love can spawn obsession, friendship can be twisted with treachery, and rainbows come from the rain. Every alicorn has a dark side, every one of them. The only thing keeping them from turning is the will to stay on the path.
I got an alicorn OC (pretty much by accident) and I'm kinda impressed I don't get as much hate as I've seen. Having a pal to help me with the backstory who makes a lot of characters for DnD as well as other things helped a lot.
To me, I kind of got the impression that you were the alicorn of personality. or something like that. ps. yes I know I am watching this two years later and I am just now commenting. lol
*heard emperors new clothes in the backgroumd* Me: OHHHHHHHH YEAAAAA THE CROOOOOWWN! SO CLOSE I CAN TASTE IT! SEE WHAT'S MINE I'LL TAKE IT!!! OOOOOOHHHHH YEAAAAAA! I'm serious.
Aeon You Silly Demon Always making a grand enter only one unicorn can be the strongist and thats me ;p but i dont need wings to be great a horn is fine
The thing about Flurry Heart is that, if there are very few alicorns in this world, that means that Cadance is the FIRST to actually reproduce, and therefore, that's why there hasn't been an alicorn that was born. It's not like we have other alicorns that are married and therefore can reproduce (And lets face it, no way would this show be allowed to have a child that wasn't conceived legitimately), so we can't exactly say that Flurry breaks the rules because no other alicorn to our knowledge has ever had a child.
There should really be self growing doors to accommodate the size and shape of all creates. Otherwise, the repair bills will be through the roof. No pun intended. Great recap.
Only just came across this via recommended, but I remember a long time ago back in Season One, I made 2 alicorns, sisters named Candycane and TeaShine. Except because of the mary sue type that people kept thinking alicorns are, I ended up changing them and making it so that both of them had flaws that one couldn't fly because of being diabled(kinda like Scootaloo, which I thought back then that she just was too young to use her wings) - and the other couldn't use magic due to having a broken horn. But because of others opinions I changed them, though now I see I probably could of just kept them as is, but I made Candycane just a unicorn and Tea a pegasus once again.
I have an alicorn OC myself that I am trying to write a backstory for. So far, she is really a unicorn/pegasus hybrid born in a far off place where alicorn-epse creatures are more common. I'm still working on it.
Another collab of grandiose funny proportions! XD Though I have been wondering one thing; if stuff that would make most ponies pause and think, such as being hit with a hammer, just as an example, don't work on Aeon and in fact make him want ta act up then what would the opposite do? Such as treating him super sweet, like a puppy. Or like current parenting where no real action is taken and most antics are just laughed and smiled at.
This isn't just talking about alicorn ocs, it's talking about all fandom ocs. I have four human ocs and one of them has gone through many changes from being op to being flawed. My oc ( which I won't name ) had lost her sister at a young age and started practicing magic to try and bring her sister back, as soon as she learns the revival spell, she uses it and realized her sister wasn't as perfect as she remembered and she had to reverse time and warn her past self. This leads to her sister staying dead and her needing someone to help her through this pain. Honestly I'll stop it there but if you by chance want to hear the rest of the story, I'll gladly finish it But my point of this story is that you don't have to get rid of an OC because it's op, just give it flaws and make a good backstory, and it's okay if your oc goes through different looks until you're comfortable with the look. Be creative and enjoy making the oc and you'll do fine.
I have taken the AU (Alternate Universe) approach. I have an alicorn OC who lives in a world where alicorns are basically the pony equivalent of guardian angels. Mine is the guardian of children. She was an earth pony who ascended into the alicorn state.
Well, this is quite interesting. I was wondering how other Alicorn OC worked. Was there a past Story too? I think I need to study it before I can join. For now: I'm not sure yet. And Rosie got a point about about Astelle from Princess Trixie Sparkle. That Backstory of her explained why she want's revenge on Celestia and make that Trixie joined her to get revenge on Twilight too. And of course Aeon has to join too. And that Bat Pony Form. This is a bit scary.
I always believed blissy was a pony representation of the color wheel.
She has a large range of color in her rainbow main and tail, showing the light spectrum along with pure black and white. Mix these colors together and blissy can make almost any color you can think of
Just like how she can be anything she can think of. An artist, an animator, a wife or just an awesome rainbow horse with a colorful soul we call all depend on ^^

But I guess it's ok for everyone to make their own OC rather it's alicorn, unicorn, pegasi or earth pony. just give them negative traits too, nopony is perfect :)
Also any advice for me I don't bout to start "bronieing" reviewing on UA-cam and I would really appreciate it thanks
idc about alcorn OCs at least there not recolor OCs
Daniella shes literally just a rainbow dash recolor with a jacket and glasses
@@jlt11422 She's changed how her oc looks. So being called a rainbow dash recolor with glasses and a jacket no longer applies to her.
I'm already Dead
Aeon, you sir, are awesome and funny at the same time
Personally, I always thought of alicorns as demigods. The closest thing the show has to a true god is the Tree of Harmony.
i did actually have an alicorn for a charactrer i was originally a unicorn as a philly(i think i spelled philly right). i was a pink pony named tavi and i had a pikachu cutie mark with a heart around it. I had a strange power to turn into weird creatures. (they were pokemon). nobody knew what they were and i was considered the oddball in the group. then while i was exploring, i found a portal in a crystal cave that led to the pokemon world. i went in and the first thing i saw was a wuole world of beings ive seen before. i realised i was turning into these creatures and i had became friends with alot of them and i protected them from harm anyway i could. then i realised i loved being around pokemon and my destiny was to help, protect, and care for pokemon. when i got a little older to 12 years of pony age i got wings even though i didnt discover why but shortly afterwards i was called princess tavi but i said there was no need. i was still the girl i knew and thats basically my story. i still turn into pokemon and help anyway i can.

See, this is ridiculous. Can I suggest something else? How about you were a changeling lost in the forest, abandoned by your herd because the only thing you could turn into was strange animals (Pokémon). You saw how lovely to ponies of Equestrian were you walked into Ponyville without knowing what you were, being young and naive. They started attacking you and you managed to teleport out of there but you were badly injured. You fell asleep in the cave you teleported into, then after you woke up you looked around the small cave and called it home. Since it reminded you of home (the changeling hive). After you completely healed from the attack you started trying to hunt for food. You were hungry for love since you haven't had any in your entire life, not being able to turn into a pony and all. (You survived like that because changelings are able to share love, but were too selfish to. Your mother FIGURE wanted to keep you around so she gave you some of hers, but then you got kicked out.) You tried to turn into something other than the odd animals but couldn't. In frustration and hunger you stomped loudly and a wall at the end of the cave started crumbling and revealed a rip in the fabric of the universe. It was left from the fight of Princess Celestia and Nightmare Moon. Curiosity overwhelmed you and you stepped in, stumbling into the vast world of Pokémon. Familiar with one in particular, a cute pikachu. You transformed into her (the pikachu) and finally realized what you were turning into. Now you live in the Pokémon world, studying and playing with the Pokémon.
It is spelled Filly* Im pretty sure
I'm a hybrid changeling/draconicus names Ammon white by the way.: -)
Fantastic video, its great that the 3 of you shed light onto a subject that many people are ready to wage war over. ^^ I have an Alicorn OC, and proud of it. when it came to developing her character, I took a unique approach that few others have. ( A rather extreme one too )
I have had this OC for 18 years, I started her at birth, and just had her grow up over time, and it is all these experiences over these 18 years that created her backstory, and developed her personality. She has more than a backstory, she has actual history.
A key point though, my OC is completely original ( Original species ) , I only made her an Alicorn when I became a fan of the show. hehe ( Will I change her back ? Dont know, we will see as her story continues to develop for years to come ) ^^
Thankyou for the video Bliss, Rose pal, and Aeon.
I so ship them
See I am related to the Queen of England (Distant cousin) But seeing as the original symbol of England was a Dragon I went with a dragon Hybrid as my OC.
Aeon's character is so... how do you say... rapey
he makes me rEALLY uncOMFORTAble////
hey . um i have a question, have u sver thpught about doing a henrey jekyll and edward hyde fan art mlp tjing?
The comments are going CRAZY right now!!!!!!!
So many topics to talk about. From a video about only one topic.
you know i actually have at least two alicorn theories, the first is that it was the tree of harmony calling princess and luna and celestia to the elements, and when they reached the cave, the power was strong enough to turn them into alicorns, and while yes their power has faded, but they're still powerful enough to remain alicorns due to taking control of the sun and moon from discord and for moving them for so long, which would explain why they were able to live for so long and became so, hindered, when compared to what they were discribed within so many history books, the other is still somewhat the same, the obly difference is that they're power is still super strong, but they are afraid of letting out they're full power, think like with superman's famous line where he said and i quote 'i feel like I'm in a world made of, cardboard, always taking constant care not to break something, to break someone.' thats what an alicorn is, they're not OP, by being to OP and having them know it, anyway those are my two theories, did i miss anything?
we cant all be golden age superman with a multitude of wild wacky insane powers, tho i do like the ability of personal reality
u don't have to be perfect just be you. And those who are your true fans won't care
For the love of Celestia, when Aeon joins a video, I know it's gonna be good. I love him to death. XD
"More inconsistent than statements made by Donald Trump".
BUDDY!!!!!!!!!!
You just became my 4th fave brony now.
is aoen some kind of pony demon? like seriously. hes creepy as hell .. (*Dont ask if i tried on a pun with that.*)
the pun you're looking for is "blucifer"
I think he's more like Rumplestiltskin from Once Upon A Time
I love how I can guess almost every song that comes up ^^
This one is _"Emperors New Clothes"_ by: Panic at the disco
Hey maka if you know lot of the songs what is the song name that plays when aeon show up call i actually like to know?
brake the rules brake the rules brake the rules welcome to the internet.... there is no wrong way to fantasies......
What is a Mary Sue
Jessie Freeman a op character and have very few flaws.
Her oc
helis makes bad art her oc is not a Mary sue
Really helps that there is so much to choose from now. I can remember the days when your only choices were Earth Pony, Unicorn, Pegasus and maybe Dragon. (Alicorns were very frowned upon at the time but mostly it was due to a over saturation of Gary and Mary Stu's.) But now we have a lot of free range. So for example, I have a halfling. Half bat pony, half earth pony. The earth pony keeps him to heavy with not enough magic to fly but can still glide with the bat wings hidden under the cloak. (My first OC was a Pegasus with little imagination behind him. Now I feel I have more room to be creative. What a great time to be a fan. :D)
please, Alicorns are nothing, try having a draconiquess oc like myself.
dab
dab
dab
aeon get a real life dab
Coralpanda333 He DOES have a real life. It's YOU who doesn't. Also, dab definition: Verb, aim at or to strike lightly; Noun, a small amount of something. THE MEME IS *_DEAD_*! And I killed it.
Coralpanda333, "Real lives" are so over rated.
Marc Haas and your saltiness makes you dead to me because your saltiness only makes you saltier
Coralpanda333 You're the salty one.
really i am alive just because im some what salty doesnt mean im not alive dont try to correct my mistakes im just lazy to do it so mind me and you kindly move away before i go crazy thank you for not listening and keep being this salty person and have funny reading this while i am talking to a friend good day
Shameless shilling aside (and doing it again since I already did it on the first alicorn oc talk in this channel, cough cough "The Rising" on FimFiction)
I think what comes down to making a good Alicorn OC is both writing the character and directing what their purpose in the story is to be. With Stella, she had been given the purpose of taking revenge and having festered and been consumed by hate and rage from how everything she thought was happening in her life was instead something she didn't want and couldn't handle (which does somewhat put Starswirl responsible since he didn't even consider Stella's views or asking what she wanted ["Folly of Celestia" gives a solid good boost in that direction]
Great collab Blissy, and I have a feeling Aeon was only behaving just to mess with you and Rosie at the end XD
Anyway, there is one thing about Alicorns that I feel you would like to take into consideration from a friend of mine on his own Alicorn Analysis video here ua-cam.com/video/B9W30SfhTro/v-deo.html
I want to make a one-robot Alicorn army that transform into a jet fighter, a tank, a scout buggy, an orbital super weapon, and a defense turret.
Now, if only I can draw.
I would love to see Aeon and my OC together in a room. I can picture her noticing his excitement and try the opposite just to see what would happen. Like instead of hitting him over the head with a hammer, giving him hugs and squeezes.
Wee woo wee woo, we have a simp!
18:18 YIN and yang lol I'm going to eat my heart out now
I wonder how much power Aeon actually has, so much so that I'm starting to wonder if he is more powerful than Luna and Celestia combined.
My Alicorn OC backstory, as abridged as possible, goes like this: Having been exposed to immense magical power from a magical explosion as well as at the exact same time, put on the Mask of Loki, becomes Green Thunder, alicorn of creativity. After a horrible first night, the main cast are hesitant at first to take him in, but Twilight wants t study this new magic, so she lets him stay in the castle. What follows is a crazy amount of crossovers, fourth wall breaking and romantic comedy up the wazoo. But honestly, I like it that way.
As for whether or not the magical energy sent him to the Realm of Alicorns will be in the backstory is iffy. I might make it vague to make things a bit more flexible.
and aeon you are hilarious I could sit here and watch u all day ^^
9:05 - You need to see the CMC then Blissy ;)
I created an alicorn Oc who’s cursed with invisibility and loss of voice for driving Starswirl nuts with his spiteful attitude and selfishness. He is like the mythological version of Loki and has a deep jealousy towards Discord. His name is GreySky Fade. Just couldn’t resist sharing him since this vid was on the subject of alicorns. 🤷🏻♂️
Oh wow so I could actually have a alicorn OC because looking through at least my mother's side of the family we are descended from nobility
wait THAT'S AMY ROSE'S HAMMER!
Much of this can be applied to other things apart from the MLP universe. Many times new characters that are related to powerful established characters that have those powers are shunned. In a roleplay that I am doing, we had to rewrite the canon just so people who read it wouldn't be so judgmental and shun the work that we put into it just because of the power we appear to have.
Love the song at the end! 😄 :3
I think your art work is awesome and the design of your alicorn is brilliant
From the sunlight casts a shadow, in the night lies moonlight, from love can spawn obsession, friendship can be twisted with treachery, and rainbows come from the rain. Every alicorn has a dark side, every one of them. The only thing keeping them from turning is the will to stay on the path.
Wonderful choice of outro music!As for making an OC of my own, I've kinda had the thought of a Coatl if anything.
You,Rose and Aeon recap on alicorns was done well.
i absolutely love the song you used at the end
hay i know that song Panic! At The Disco: Emperor's New Clothes one of my faves :P
lightning blitz, you my favorite brony I've ever meet
also your pet really cute
Every brony: screaming in terror
Me: Eh. Just another day in the rift (drinks coffee)
I got an alicorn OC (pretty much by accident) and I'm kinda impressed I don't get as much hate as I've seen. Having a pal to help me with the backstory who makes a lot of characters for DnD as well as other things helped a lot.
I’ve always thought of allicorns as demigods, like Maowi!
I have an alicorn oc blissy. But I don't have a good backstory for her. Can you help me please?
Can i use your oc but her name would be rainbow struck and rainbow eyes and not have a husband
Um... No. I would highly recommend you come up with your own OC design so that you avoid being accussed of copying/stealing. Thank you.
@@lightning-bliss thank you i understand
To me, I kind of got the impression that you were the alicorn of personality. or something like that.
ps. yes I know I am watching this two years later and I am just now commenting. lol
*heard emperors new clothes in the backgroumd*
Me: OHHHHHHHH YEAAAAA THE CROOOOOWWN! SO CLOSE I CAN TASTE IT! SEE WHAT'S MINE I'LL TAKE IT!!! OOOOOOHHHHH YEAAAAAA!
I'm serious.
Blissy your the princess of inspiration since your small and strange you still work hard make people I mean ponies happy
What if your OC is a Ponified Saitama?
Aeon You Silly Demon Always making a grand enter only one unicorn can be the strongist and thats me ;p but i dont need wings to be great a horn is fine
The thing about Flurry Heart is that, if there are very few alicorns in this world, that means that Cadance is the FIRST to actually reproduce, and therefore, that's why there hasn't been an alicorn that was born. It's not like we have other alicorns that are married and therefore can reproduce (And lets face it, no way would this show be allowed to have a child that wasn't conceived legitimately), so we can't exactly say that Flurry breaks the rules because no other alicorn to our knowledge has ever had a child.
yeah right in your o.c. back story can be kind of hard and making it where they want to know more about your OC backstory even harder
There should really be self growing doors to accommodate the size and shape of all creates. Otherwise, the repair bills will be through the roof. No pun intended. Great recap.
Only just came across this via recommended, but I remember a long time ago back in Season One, I made 2 alicorns, sisters named Candycane and TeaShine. Except because of the mary sue type that people kept thinking alicorns are, I ended up changing them and making it so that both of them had flaws that one couldn't fly because of being diabled(kinda like Scootaloo, which I thought back then that she just was too young to use her wings) - and the other couldn't use magic due to having a broken horn. But because of others opinions I changed them, though now I see I probably could of just kept them as is, but I made Candycane just a unicorn and Tea a pegasus once again.
I have an alicorn OC myself that I am trying to write a backstory for. So far, she is really a unicorn/pegasus hybrid born in a far off place where alicorn-epse creatures are more common. I'm still working on it.
Another collab of grandiose funny proportions! XD Though I have been wondering one thing; if stuff that would make most ponies pause and think, such as being hit with a hammer, just as an example, don't work on Aeon and in fact make him want ta act up then what would the opposite do? Such as treating him super sweet, like a puppy. Or like current parenting where no real action is taken and most antics are just laughed and smiled at.
This isn't just talking about alicorn ocs, it's talking about all fandom ocs. I have four human ocs and one of them has gone through many changes from being op to being flawed. My oc ( which I won't name ) had lost her sister at a young age and started practicing magic to try and bring her sister back, as soon as she learns the revival spell, she uses it and realized her sister wasn't as perfect as she remembered and she had to reverse time and warn her past self. This leads to her sister staying dead and her needing someone to help her through this pain.
Honestly I'll stop it there but if you by chance want to hear the rest of the story, I'll gladly finish it
But my point of this story is that you don't have to get rid of an OC because it's op, just give it flaws and make a good backstory, and it's okay if your oc goes through different looks until you're comfortable with the look. Be creative and enjoy making the oc and you'll do fine.
Everyone is panicing as twinkie ran down the hall!
I have taken the AU (Alternate Universe) approach. I have an alicorn OC who lives in a world where alicorns are basically the pony equivalent of guardian angels. Mine is the guardian of children. She was an earth pony who ascended into the alicorn state.
Well, this is quite interesting. I was wondering how other Alicorn OC worked. Was there a past Story too? I think I need to study it before I can join. For now: I'm not sure yet.
And Rosie got a point about about Astelle from Princess Trixie Sparkle. That Backstory of her explained why she want's revenge on Celestia and make that Trixie joined her to get revenge on Twilight too.
And of course Aeon has to join too. And that Bat Pony Form. This is a bit scary.
