3/4 prev - next Somnambula is a unicorn who comes from the homonymous desert. It is actually unknow if she was named after the place or if the place was named after her. Most historians thinks she is a fictive character.
The tale of Somnambula is classical from the region, the story of the young unicorn who went and saved the pharaoh from a terrible Sphinx but lost her sight to the creature after managing to answer its riddle. Despite no proof of the existance of Somnambula being ever found, most habitants of Somnambula insist on the existance of the mare. The closest thing to a proof of her existance is a letter talking about the story by the pharaoh, alas translation is difficult due to the state of the paper as it was partially burned. Some historians pretends than proof of her existance or non-existance may be found inside the pharaoh's room in the pyramid. Though those ponies tends to be badly seen by the community after having mistaken pharoahs and having announced her existance due to a vase done about the story, thinking it had been done at the time of the story. The vase was, in fact, two hundred years too recent. ---------------

Rockhoof is a unicorn from a volcanic island at the edge of Equus and Equestria. Despite the stereotypes about unicorns, Rockhoof wasn't any kind of scholar or even a good magician. He is of the type of unicorns often forgotten but his existance was proved thanks to his file in the Mighty Helm. The Mighty Helm was originally a subdivision from the EPA which separated from the EPA, becoming it's own little force. It is mainly known as one of the first known group which allowed ponies of different kinds to fight together. The most known tale about the stallion is the following : Rockhoof was a particularly weak colt when he was young. Generally, weak bodied unicorn became scholars or planners but not Rockhoof. The young stallion trained again and again for years, slowly building strenght and muscle. Though the strength he is now known for only appeared while his town was in danger due to the volcan erupting. Rockhoof took his shovel and managed to dig and deep trench in only moments as in face of the danger he accepted than he was neither a failed unicorn to prefer physical activity nor a failed earth pony for not being born an earth pony and having horn magic. Despite the disparition of both the Mighty Helm and the town, Rockhoof is a classical figure to see in foal-section classroom or in museum. There are also a few games which were inspired by his story. ------------------------
Tumblr media
Mistmane is a pegasus mare from the lost pegasi empire of Poneon. Her existance is doubted at best by most historians despite her name being used to describe a type of mane replacement and a medical condition. If the tale is too be believed, young Mistmane was one of the most beautiful mare of her time with a lustruous fur, magnificient mane and shining feathers. But the young mare was also an adventurer and a friend of the princess of Poneon, a small pegasus touched by naked foal syndrom, a fatal condition. To give the bed-ridden filly a taste of the world despite it, she went and traveled accross the world for years, allegedly bringing beauty and peace with her. But when she went back home, she discovered than her friend's parents, in a desperate try to make their daughter happy and experience travel, forced most of her town to bring and do exotic things for the sick filly. The young princess hating the suffering endured for her despite loving the attention and unable to convince her parents than they don't need to make people suffer to try and make her last few years better. Mistmane, having explored the world, had also discovered multiple magic and 'broke' the disease in two, losing all of her hair to allow her friend's to grow and make her healthier. Horrifying her friend as by doing so, she had lowered her own life expectancy. The tale finishing on a cautionary notes explaining than even when you want the best for someone, you have to ensure their consent to the act. If the story is true, no one is certain of what happened to either the princess, the Emperor family or Mistmane after this story.

An AU where the Pillars of old Equestria and Stygian get sent far into the future instead of Limbo, the very sudden travel involved causing them to be reincarnated into new ponies due to time magics chaotic nature. These ponies getting memories of their past lives in the form of dreams often, all of them thinking it's just strange dreams. These ponies going through a very similar situation as their past lives, but also very different. The Pony of Shadows becoming separated from Stygians soul, now left wandering Equestria in search of a suitable replacement.
Optional addition:
Twilight Sparkle is Stygians reincarnation, Apple Jack is Rock Hoofs reincarnation, Rainbow Dash is Flash Magnus reincarnation, Fluttershy is Mage Meadowbrooks reincarnation, Rarity is Mist Manes reincarnation, Pinkie Pie is Somnambula's reincarnation, and Starlight Glimmer is Starswirl the beardeds reincarnation.
Due to being Stygians reincarnation she often has nightmares.
It doesn't take Starlight Glimmer long to realize what her dreams meant, this knowledge going to her head. And contempt for Twilight Sparkle growing daily. It was supposed to be her as the element of magic, she was Starswirl the beardeds reincarnation after all wasn't she! It was supposed to be her close to Celestia and friends with the other elements of harmony. It was supposed to be her to save the day and become a princess. Her hatred and jealousy for the purple unicorn getting to the point of Starlight doing questionable like spreading rumors about Twilight Sparkle, and gaining a following by taking advantage of her heritage of Starswirls soul and similar magical abilities like time magic and her ability to create new spellwork like her cutie mark removal spell.
The pony of shadows is getting tempted by some pony and it's not Stygians reincarnation like it expected it to be. How beautifully ironic that Starswirls reincarnation would become the thing he himself sought to destroy completely. Starswirl having very black and white thinking about the so called villain Stygian had become, and was completely prepared to get rid of the small unicorn completely. The pony of shadows laughs at this turn of fate, Stygians reincarnation has done far more than Starswirl ever had, and Starswirls reincarnation is on a path to be far worse than Stygians corruption ever was.

Mlp dream (Long post)
// This is a dream I had last night. I don't know why I had it. (go to keep reading to read it)
So in it, the villains were attacking Equestria because they were in search of the Young and Mane 12.
It was because they heard an unknown prophecy that involved the elements (My dream never told it but there was a prophecy).
The pillars managed to drive out the villains, but the land took a beating.
After the scum were chased out, the leaders of their respective kingdoms were debating what to do with the future elements of harmony (They were babies in my dream).
They knew as long as the villains knew where future bearers were, they wouldn't stop until they captured the harmony.
Stygian came up with the idea that the bearers be taken to another land with a member of the pillar moving with them.
The dream ended with the children being taken to the new lands with a pillar going with them:
Twilight and Gallus are sent to Abyssina with Starswirl.
Rainbow Dash and Smolder are sent to Griffonstone with Flash Magnus.
Rarity and Ocellus are sent to the Dragon lands with Mistmane.
Applejack and Yona are sent to Mount Aris with Rockhoof.
Fluttershy and Sandbar are sent to Farasi with Mage Meadowbrook.
Pinkie Pie and Silverstream are sent to Yakyakistan with Somnamblua.
Starlight and a Kirin are sent to the Changeling kingdom with Sytgian.
Derpy and a bird are sent to the Thicket.
Sunset Shimmer and an Abyssinan are sent to Peril Peaks.
Trixie and a Diamond Dog are sent to Ornithia.
An Earth Pony and a Deer are sent to where the minotaurs live.
Sunburst and a Minotaur were sent to the crystal empire.
(Derpy, Shimmer, Trixie, The Earth Pony, and Sunburst are accompanied by unknown pillar members.)

The funny part of my Mistmane/Sable Spirit stuff was that Kirin weren’t canon until AFTER I’d gone and dabbled with headcanoning Mistmane as a magically cursed Kirin rather than just an old lady lol. I comedically landed PRETTY CLOSE to their show canon designs

Dungeons and ponies
(Disclaimer : There is a lot of reading here but there is also drawings, the drawings are lower in the post so don't hesitate to jump straight to it to avoid the blabbering) Since uni is kicking my behind (well, that and a good old bad cold), I put a hiatus on Shuffled (and have been for a while already). But that's not the subject of this post ! So, Dungeons and Dragons ! The most known system of roleplay than most fan of the genre have played at least once, right ? Not me. I have only played homemade systems since before I could read. But I am a big fan of DnD redesigns and love memes so, what did I do after watching some redesigns on youtube? Well, of course, I drew the pillars ! And since I can't do anything simply, I linked them all to two classes and made a few indications for stats and an idea for a small system to represent the elements. So a few explainations then drawings ! Each pillars are linked to 2 classes (I also have ideas for the mane 6 (7?) but I haven't drawn them yet, dunno if I will) depending of their stories (in the serie and in the comics) and what I felt like doing. Each pillars are linked to a "virtue", virtues are pretty much the equivalent of the elements but there is seven of them and are made to be "usable" for both generation. The concept of virtue is : each virtue corresponds to an ability (for example : faith would rise the critical sucess rate for difficult actions). A virtue being in a party will act on all members of it, having multiple time a virtue will reinforce its effect (two faith would lower the failure rate necessary for an action to be thought as difficult for example) and different virtues would stack on the party (if you have a faith and a diligence, both effects will act on the whole party). If you have six or more of the different virtue, once by session you could use the friendship rainbow lazer. For the stats, since I'm too lazy to try and figure out what level everypony would have, searching how exp works and all, instead there are 5 level existing : low-, low, medium, high, high+. low- is you are pretty much unable to do anything using this stat. Low is lower than the average adult pony. Medium is average. High is higher than average. High+ is "hello I'm pretty much a genius in this field". The pillars have a mean to medium where the mane 6 (and Stygian) would have a mean at low. Now drawings !
Tumblr media
Starswirl is a wizard (pretty obvious why) and a bloodhunter ! To make a very gross summary a bloodhunter is someone who used pretty... unsavory rituals to achieve very powerful blood-related magic (generally in the goal of beating up bad guys). In this, I consider than Starswirl became one to reach stronger magics to fight against the monsters who roam during their times (that far before even meeting the alicorn sisters). I also imagine him now half regretting his choice but also being of the mind of "better me than someone else". His virtue is curiosity. (Also a thing I thought while thinking about it (I will try to keep it short) : isn't it funny than he thought than Stygian was trying to steal the power of the pillars but his last spell, when corrected, allows the caster to reach alicornhood by using the power of 5 other individuals? Imagine the twist it would have been if Starswirl had originally made the spell to become an alicorn (and so immortal) and planned to put the rest of the pillars in limbo until finding a way to make them immortal too to "protect equestria forever". Like, Stygian would have been silent and shocked cause he was in fact sent by Starswirl to make preparatory diagnostics check-up but was thrown under the bus when some of the pillars realized their missing stuff. (Funnily enough, seeing how high in society Starswirl was, even if he planned to keep Stygian, it would have been easy for him to get guards to capture him back so it would barely be annoying for him to have to let Stygian run off). Like during part of the finale, everyone thinks the problem is Stygian taking the artifacts for one thing or another and then you learn than Stygian thought he was allowed since Starswirl asked him to do it and accepted the shadows due to feeling betrayed (possibly even accepting them to escape Starswirl). And I'm beginning to spiral in possibilities soooo next character ! (also, link of the wizard reference : https://www.lolailo.co.uk/ravenloft-chapter-fourty-four-the-journey-back-to-an-illusion/ )
Tumblr media
Rockhoof is a paladin (of the Mighty Helm) and a barbarian ! And his dexterity is low due to a certain episode and charisma has ended up low cause it was the only thing I could lower when I realized his mean was high. His virtue is diligence ! And ref of the viking palading : https://www.deviantart.com/rathnos/art/Ziggeroy-The-Viking-Paladin-or-Vikadin-563177921 .
Tumblr media
Mistmane is a sorcerer (cause her magic is too important for her to not have a magic related class and I thought than wizard was better for Starswirl) and a druid (before thinking for this, I hadn't fully realized how much she is linked to plants). Her virtue is charity ! And old ponies are hard to draw x'DD
Tumblr media
Somnambula is a bard and a monk ! And I tried two color palets cause I wondered how she would look with Ankha's color palet. Her virtue is Faith !
Tumblr media
Meadowbrook is an artificer (mainly for the potion making) and ranger (partially cause Mistmane already had the bard part and also because, Meadowbrook doesn't really have the link with animals and plants I generally imagine druids having? If that makes sense?). Her virtue is Mercy !
Tumblr media
Flash Magnus is a fighter (I originally thought to make him a paladin before thinking than Paladin of The Mighty Helm sounded too good to pass) and a rogue (originally cause I thought it funny since his "elemental descendant" is the element of loyalty) ! His virtue is Bravery (yes, I know, imagination 10/10)
Tumblr media
Stygian is a Cleric (just thought it would be cool for him to have become it to help the pillars) and a Warlock (pretty obvious that one). Yes I imagine him having two patrons pretty much opposite. Just cause I think it would make for very funny interactions with Stygian and both patrons. His virtue is caution. I tried to make the post veeeeeeery quick and short so plz don't hesitate to send ask if interested in this xDD May do the mane 6 and/or young 6 one day. Or not. Idk yet? Will take a while either way so have a nice daaaay !
