History WMG / MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicPillarsofEquestria

* Um... no. It's a pun. Amnio means "bowl" and "morphic" is "morphing" so it pretty much morphs clay into bowls. He's a '''[[Franchise/HarryPotter Hairy Potter]]'''. It's not a spell for your m-preg or yuri slashfic.
** Yuri is GirlsLove.

* Rarity got Rainbow Dash' mark. As nice as Rarity is, she's the one most prone to deny relationship if she feels threatened: to her friends in "Sweet and elite" and to her family in "Sisterhooves Social". She got better in better in both cases, but there's no guarantee that she won't relapse. Also, of the other six, Rainbow Dash is the one she most obviously would consider a “ruffian", so she needed to learn to appreciate her hard work as well.

[[WMG: Star Swirl the Bearded’s Amniomorphic Spell...]]
...allows a foal fetus to be carried by a male pony, with its base being an amniotic sack formed with magic. There had long been spells allowing two ponies of any gender to mix DNA and conceive a foal together, but before Star Swirl’s breakthrough, the foals would still need to be carried to term by a mare.

[[WMG: Star Swirl the Bearded will appear.]]

[[WMG: Almost nopony has any idea who Star Swirl the Bearded really was.]]

[[WMG: Starswirl was the creator of the spell to change genders]]

[[WMG: Starswirl's spell from "Magical Mystery Cure" was intended to turn ponies into alicorns.]]

[[WMG: Star Swirl the Bearded is the next BigBad, or was one in the distant past, which we will see in a Flashback episode]]

[[WMG: Star Swirl the Beaded did become a prince.]]

[[WMG: Star Swirl the Bearded died by his own hoof.]]

[[WMG: The Spell of Starswirl the Bearded ''was'' complete]]
It’s just that Princess Celestia didn't understand completely what it was for. She herself said that Starswirl didn't understand friendship like Twilight did, and that was what this spell was for: To [[SwappedRoles swap roles]] with someone else to get a better understanding of their persona, and in turn, get a better understanding on yourself. Note that Twilight Sparkle did not actually complete the spell, but made a completely new one. Also note that the “cure” for the spell wasn't a magical one, but simply to remind each individual of their particular strengths.

* Rainbow Dash got Fluttershy's mark. She needed to learn kindness, and Fluttershy’s talent, caring for the animals is also the one who would keep her at the ground the most.

* Rarity got Rainbow Dash' mark. As nice as Rarity is, she's the one most prone to deny relationship if she feels threatened: to her friends in “Sweet and elite” and to her family in “Sisterhooves Social”. She got better in better in both cases, but there's no guarantee that she won't relapse. Also, of the other six, Rainbow Dash is the one she most obviously would consider a “ruffian”, so she needed to learn to appreciate her hard work as well.

[[WMG: Starswirl the Bearded died during Discord's reign.]]

[[WMG: Starswirl planted the seed that would eventually grow into the Tree of Harmony.]]

[[WMG: Star Swirl didn't make the spell from "Magical Mystery Cure".]]

** It turns out that there is an age modification spell, that only the most powerful of ponies can use... Maybe he only uses it when he gets really old? Or making himself too young would get him kicked out of the retirement center.

Befitting his "Viking" image, he'll be swilling a drink--but, considering the nature of this show, it'll likely be that he's [[DrunkonMilk Drunk on Milk]]--possibly cider, root beer, or soda.

* "Amniomorphic" means "bowl-shaping", as in the pottery. He's a [[HarryPotter Hairy Potter]]. It's a pun. Considering this is Twilight, she wouldn't make it up; it's just a little-known fact about Clover the Clever that s/he studied under Starswirl the Bearded. There's also the fact that ''he'' might not be obscure, but some of his spells are, such as the above-mentioned pottery spell, and that's what was in the book.

[[WMG:This is not the same Meadowbrook as Twilight alludes to in ''Cutie Map''.]]

[[WMG:If ''[[Recap/DoctorWhoS1E4Marco Polo Marco Polo]]'' is ever recovered and [=FiM=] is still running at the time, Mistmane will be given a relative resembling a ponified Ping-Cho.]]

[[WMG:This is not the same Meadowbrook as Twilight alludes to in ''Cutie Re-Mark''.]]

Some of these occasions will be relatively happy, like Somnambula going back to find her village still alive and thriving, and some less so, like Rockhoof discovering that there is nothing left of his old home but long-abandoned, buried ruins. There will be an overall theme of the Pillars having to figure out how to adjust to a world that has moved on without them, and that ha grown very different from what they knew.

Befitting his "Viking" image, he'll be swilling a drink--but, considering the nature of this show, it'll likely be that he's [[DrunkonMilk]]--possibly cider, root beer, or soda.

[WMG: Almost nopony has any idea who Star Swirl the Bearded really was.]]

[[WMG: The Princess referred to in Twilight's book in "Hearts and Hooves Day" later became Queen Chrysalis.]]

She began as the alicorn ruler of a pre-Equestrian kingdom, but upon being overdosed with love poison became physically dependent on love, and her addiction led her to evil acts that further corrupted her. Much like Nightmare Moon, her physical form eventually altered to match her mindset over the centuries. The kingdom in question? The Crystal Empire. This could also very possibly make her Cadence's direct ancestor.
* And the prince, driven mad with grief, became King Sombra.

* Confirmed! [["Shadow Play" reveals that he and the other six Pillars planted the seed that became the Tree of Harmony, although they didn't know what it would become beyond hoping to create a force of good.]]

[[WMG: Star Swirl the Bearded’s Amniomorphic Spell…….]]
…allows a foal fetus to be carried by a male pony, with its base being an amniotic sack formed with magic. There had long been spells allowing two ponies of any gender to mix DNA and conceive a foal together, but before Star Swirl’s breakthrough, the foals would still need to be carried to term by a mare.

* The third season opening included a book with ''Stars'' and ''Swirls'' on the cover... The pony himself might be dead, but that doesn't always mean gone or forgotten.

When he is first mentioned, in Luna Eclipsed, Twilight said that he was in a book of obscure unicorn history. The characters in the Hearth's Warming pageant were all symbolic, not actual living ponies, and each actor traditionally gets to design their own role within the confines of their place in the play. When Twilight mentioned her character was taught by Star Swirl the Bearded, that was just additional backstory made up by her simply because she liked the sound of it. Also, the Star Swirl the Bearded wing of the Canterlot Archives was funded by the mage himself--it wasn't in his honor.

** Kinda {{Jossed}} in Three's A Crowd. When Twilight and Cadance go to the traveling Star Swirl the Bearded exhibit there are a lot of other ponies there as well, some even cosplaying him like Twilight was. Plus the fact that he has a traveling exhibit dedicated to him in the first place suggests he's fairly well-known.

He test it on himself, but it worked too well and he become a she more time than expected. That make the female Starswirl toy make a little sense.

[[WMG: Starswirl's spell from Magical Mystery Cure was intended to turn ponies into alicorns.]]
Originally, it was supposed to give the abilities of multiple ponies to one - after all, alicorns are a combination of all three pony races. However, as we saw, the version Twilight got took the talents and instead of combining them, switched them.

* either way, if this is true, he'll [[BackFromTheDead come back]] either as a [[OurGhostsAreDifferent ghost]] or otherwise.

His spell changed ponies destinies around, and he never was able to repair the damage. Rainbow Dash nearly died in MMC, and it is pretty much a given that several of Star Swirl's swaps were indirectly fatal in similar ways. Star Swirl took his own life out of remorse.
