The group of legendary ponies continues to grow as Rockhoof and Mage Meadowbrook join the group! Each faces unique challenges that will require the help of their peers before disaster strikes!


Tropes:

  • Bears Are Bad News: A forest near Rockhoof's village is inhabited by lumber bears, aggressive bear-like monsters made of animated wood that can instantly regenerate after being destroyed as long as they're in the forest. They are apparently fearsome and dangerous enough that they are more than a match for even the warriors of the Mighty Helm, as long as they're in the woods.
  • Hate Plague: A fungal infection among the plants of the Hayseed Swamp has caused any animal that eats the infected plants to become extremely vicious and aggressive.
  • Killer Rabbit: The herbivorous animals — rabbits, deer, etc. — in Meadowbrook's swamp have become extremely dangerous and aggressive as a result of a fungus that has been infesting the plants they eat. By the time that Stygian and Rockhoof get to the swamp (in time to be beaten up by a single berserk rabbit that Rockhoof tried to pet), the swamp's carnivores are reduced to hiding in terror in their burrows.
  • Planimal: Lumber bears, similarly to the show's timber wolves, are living constructs of animate deadfall. They can also reassemble themselves after they've been destroyed, but only if they're in a forest.
