In this universe, the Princesses and the bearers of the Elements of Harmony were sealed away in the end stages of a war with Tirek, and Prince Blueblood had ascended to the throne. The Blueblood line had theoretically been trained to take the throne in the event that the princesses fall and Equestria needs a leader, but as the two goddesses were widely considered immortal, the teachings of how to run a nation had been ignored, and Prince Blueblood was left with virtually no idea what he was doing. However, a general by the name of Sky Skimmer saw the Prince's incompetence as an opportunity to take power, and he began to manipulate Blueblood as a puppet king and controlled Equestria himself, instating a great number of unjust laws that the populace cried out against. This, in turn, has caused a rebellion to form led by a council of five ponies that actively resists the rule of Blueblood and the new laws.
Set roughly four years after the battle with Tirek, the main Role-Play is set in and around the capital city of Canterlot. GrayAndGrayMorality is the order of the day with a heavy emphasis on SliceOfLife threads and scenarios with the occasional over-arcing plot of the rebellion tying them together. It is fairly {{Grimdark}}, though only for the overall concept; the threads themselves range from LighterAndSofter to DarkerAndEdgier which is mostly dependent on the participants.

!! This WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic Fan Role Play provides examples of:
* BadassAdorable: It's a civil war of technicolor, talking ponies. It's a bit of a foregone conclusion.
* ChildhoodMarriagePromise: Balthasar and a certain pirate who entered the tavern looking for him in the thread ''Silver Soul, Gold Dreams'' apparently did this. [[spoiler: Turns out they actually got married.]]
* MeaningfulName: A lot, but Anduriel and Lasciel stand out as the names of two fallen angels.
* MundaneMadeAwesome: Wishing Star attempts to cut her lawn with a single laser sweep across the entire property. It took about thirty seconds and the only collateral damage was a long burn along the base of the wall around the property.
* NebulousEvilOrganization:
** The rebel High Council isn't really evil, but they've definitely got the nebulous side down. Very few ponies besides the regional commanders have ever seen them, and even then only at the occasional meeting.
* OverlyLongName: Don Balthasar Juan Carlos Flamenco de los Puertos de Marelaga.
* RightfulKingReturns: Balthasar wishes for Solar Chaser to do this, as he believes Solar is the rightful heir to the throne of Equestria.
* ShoutOut: Intentional or otherwise, Solar Chaser and his player for that matter are prone to this.
** [[Franchise/{{Superman}} Raised on a farm]] by his adopted parents? Check
** An idealist looking to make a [[VideoGame/DynastyWarriors land of benevolence?]] Check
** A group of bandits called the [[VideoGame/DynastyWarriors Yellow Horseshoes?]] Check
** Balthasar's nickname for him, The Sun King? Check
* SilverHasMysticPowers: In the same way that gemstones can act as batteries for magic energy, silver can conduct it.
* TheReasonYouSuckSpeech: Solar of all ponies gives a very subtle one to Sky Skimmer- albeit it is more of a statement of personal grievances.
* TrademarkFavoriteFood: Balthasar and his wine. He's always got a bottle of wine ready in case of wine emergencies.
