Tropes:

  • Painting the Fourth Wall: One of his powers:
    • In Season 3 episode "Too Many Moon Pies", he tried to make it into a Roman à Clef:
      "The story you have read is true, expect for the parts owned by Hasbro and what was made up for laughs. The names and faces were changed to protect the innocent, but everyone got upset and made me put them back."
    • In the Season 4 epilogue, he keeps an i on his daughters by detaching the i in his name and attaching it to their names.
      “Do be careful. There are some rather questionable individuals running around that it would be best if you did not get involved with.” Discord growled. “It won't end well for any one.”
      “Isn't that stock parental speech number six?” Sonata asked.
      “Of course. I still have the cue cards that Aqua gave me.” Dscord smirked. ”But for now. I suppose I should leave you girls to it. Be careful. And I will be keeping my I on you three.”

    Tirek: I suppose I will need to hunt down the others for their wrongful imprisonment of me later.
    Iinii: Wrongful imprisonment!? You killed thousands on your last rampage!
    Tirek: All I did was drain their magic, that they died from that is hardly my fault. After all they fulfilled their true purpose, which was empowering me after all. Just as everything with magic will this time as well.
  • Evil Is Not a Toy: Kills Forthe permanently for releasing him.

Shaka

  • Surfer Dude: He talks like this, with an admixture of Tree Hugger:

Her interest has evolved from just wanting puppies to wanting him period. Is currently the God of Diamond Dogs.

Tropes:

Comet Trail:

Nox Cal Thestril[bat/dragon/pegasus pony hybrid made by Luna] assigned to Ponyville from Luna's Night Guard. Trained Rahs as best he could before bringing Jynx in to help with the moon dog's training. Was convinced to do so by Cadence informing him that Ponyville had more mares than stallions. Was made Guard Captain of the Ponyville Regiment of Guards and is unofficially the head of Twilight's Guard which she is not happy to even think she has. Dating Ditsy Doo.

Tropes:

Prince Blueblood:

A noble of a line long descended from Princess Luna.His name is actually Prince, not his title. During one of his birthdays he encountered a mare that he became infatuated with, though without knowing who she was he spent the next several years hunting for her, building his 'arrogant prick' persona to mares to keep them away while he looked in secret not wanting to start a Cindarella rush. An ambassador by trade for Canterlot, he is also an adrenaline junky and thrill seeker, well known for jumping out of perfectly good airships. In season 2 he found the mare he was looking for who turned out to be Rainbow Dash who was pranking his birthday party with Gilda as they thought it was just a hoity toity Nightmare Night party. Though to be fair, that was exactly what his parents turned it into. Did date Twilight Sparkle early in the series, but they quickly realized they were not compatible, though they remained friends.

Tropes:

Starswirl the Bearded

A pony from three millennia ago whom Twilight respects as a wizard and most of the other gods disdain as a madpony or simply an asshole.

Tropes:

  • Posthumous Character: He died more or less 3000 years before the end of Season 3.
  • Screw the Rules, I'm Famous!: At one point posthumously with a magical artefact he made.
    Most of the artifacts in there were dormant, subdued by the materials that constructed the room.
    The tall horseshoe shaped mirror on the other hoof, glowed in defiance of this place. After all, magic nullification was something that happened to other ponies creations, not things made by the Great Starswirl the Bearded.
  • Tinfoil Hat: Luna accuses him of wearing tinfoil lining on the inside of his hat to stop pegasi from reading his mind through their chemtrails.
