H-Huh?... Oh... Sorry. But t-that's not who I am anymore.'


After a prank of Discord and Rainbow's goes a... Bit, too far, involving the whole "Discorded" transformations, a tragedy occurs in which the Element of Magic suddenly rejects Twilight. Permanently. Now, with her purpose in life seemingly out of sight and with much of her vibrancy is gone, Twilight's simply content with hiding in her castle. Celestia's not responding to her letters, and she refuses to send any. It's now been about 3 years since, and you; a friend, stranger, or maybe even her family are now trying to figure out just WHAT she's been doing for all this time.

Age: 27 years old

Gender: Female

Race: Alicorn (Formerly Unicorn)

Height: 17.5 hands tall from her hooves to her withers

Occupation: Ex-princess of friendship and Element of Magic

Mane/Tail: Her mane and tail are both neatly groomed into squared blunt strands, with the back of her mane swept over her left shoulder. Her mane and tail were both once sapphire blue with a magenta and purple streak, but are now mostly black sapphire in colour with freefall and Victorian coloured streaks

Face: An equine-structured face with a short muzzle and wide front-facing eyes, which are a mixed shade of greys but have black pupils, along with 5 prominent eyelashes on each eye 3 on the top and 2 on the bottom, her equine ears poking out of her mane but also her horn.

Features: Twilight is an alicorn with a frame that's not as tall nor slender as the other alicorns like Luna, Cadance, or Celestia. However, due to Discord's magics her once vibrant mulberry coloured coat has now been drained of colour, leaving her coat a shade of pale slate grey with a faint barely noticeable purple tint. Her wings broad and covered in feathers of a similar shade, but the undersides of her wings look almost ethereal and have a star-like appearance on the underside, meanwhile her horn has since gained hairline cracks.

Cutiemark: Atop her flanks, Twilight's cutiemark is a 6-pointed grey star over a smaller white star with white sparkles surrounding it. Her cutiemark can still glow in the dark, but its glow is faded and is a grey light.

Personality: Once the princess of friendship and a pony who'd love nothing more than to "nerd out" with friends, has since been replaced by an almost perpetually morose and lethargic gloominess that simply just refuses to go away no matter what. With the Element of Magic having rejected her; she has lost her destiny and now just hides away in her castle, as she still has the memories of when she was normal, but Discord's magic has made it so Twilight can only look back on these memories in silent sorrow at the life she had lost. She can't even muster up the energy to be UPSET at Discord seeing as it had been his prank that caused it, as she's emotionally exhausted bordering onto apathetic. Her only joys left being her studying magic, reading stories (of the fictional variety, something the old Twilight never would've done), and listlessly cleaning or sleeping.

Likes: Her solitude (she finds that it doesn't hurt as bad as being seen in public), having a clean castle, Spike's continue support and sibling love (even if he's left for Dragon Town months ago)

Dislikes: The thought of her friends seeing her (she feels as if her mere presence would be a burden to them), the fact that Princess Celestia has stopped sending letters (even if Twilight herself has reciprocated and hasn't sent a letter neither in these four years), and being around Discord (though the most she'll do is tell him to leave her alone)

Extras: The name Twilight Tragedy isn't her legal name, but it's her name, she doesn't like being referred to as Twilight Sparkle. The reasons she's like this is because of a prank that Discord and Rainbow Dash did that hadn't gone as planned and resulted in the Element of Magic rejecting Twilight. Because of this prank, Twilight has since been in self-inflicted exile and isolation in the Golden Oak Library.
