    That would be a cool plot point. My thought though is that they're testing it on Icy because it's not yet 100% reliable, as in the personality created isn't reliably evil, just immensely uninhibited.

    It's kind of my personal theory regarding Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. You can't truly split a personality into 'good' and 'evil', but you can split a personality into 'Id' and 'Super-Ego'.

    The Id is all the wants and desires a person has, good or bad. The Super-Ego is what regulates those desires and decides which ones are okay to act upon. The Ego is essentially the combined result of both.

    A pure Id personality would essentially have no morals or self-control, good or evil. They do what they want, good or bad, without regard for the consequences. A pure Super-Ego personality would have few desires to regulate and be objective about everything and thus be almost completely unemotional.

    Icy's current condition strikes me as:
    Icy - 75% Super-Ego, 25% Id
    Esmerelda - 25% Super-Ego, 75% Id

    As far as Evil goes, that's a separate operation entirely and involves methods of corrupting or removing morals (magical or otherwise).

    So, the perpetrators of this plot have a Mr. Hyde concoction that can cause a significant personality split along Id and Super-Ego lines and a spell that should corrupt the morals of the Id personality at the same time. Their problem is they can't seem to get the two working together properly, which is because they're mixing magics that don't like being mixed, and are not getting consistent results. So they keep arranging 'test subjects' like Icy.

    Exactly what I had in mind, only more wordy and descriptive.

    Esmeralda Touch isn't necessarily evil, but she IS being driven to do evil acts by magical compulsion. (removing morals and whatnot.)

    Kind of what I thought, and what Issun's trying to aggravate her into revealing.

    Yeah, Issun knows how annoying he is. He just doesn't care to change that for most ponies.

    The whole possession/MC/insanity thing is based on Flashfire and Wildfire partially escaping their self imprisonment.

    After a duel, Flashfire and Wildfire were imprisoned in Mt Trotia (Flashfire forced it on Wildfire and grief stricken has it done to himself). When Luna banished Celestia, the spell weakened and the siblings woke up. They could not move but they could speak to each other. Eventually they go crazy.

    Due to having a whole decade to train and being strong unicorns already, the pair learned to astral project.

    So now there are two powerful psionic spirits floating around and searching for bodies to control some way.

    Grills and Flowier know this and fear the information coming out. Evil ponies would love to abuse the power of two insane psychic spirits. It could part of the dark forces plot as the Fire Siblings are just a notch or two under Luna.

    My original intent was that Celestia was evilified by the same thing that Luna was when she was Nightmare Moon. It's entirely possible that it took hold and twisted her normal form, but AFAIKnew, she was still locked up/exiled/exiled and locked up in the place she was exiled to.

    Elaborate por favor. My head's not currently wrapping around your phrasing here, that and I possibly have the derps from running out of steam from my nap.

    After the current situation Fox and O'm is dealt with, do you want to see if anyone wants to come in as a cop/mafia/caught up in the crossfire? I know we have one person wanting to be on the mafia side of things.

    Seeing how the pony day is drawing to a close...Benson? It seems only fair that you decide how Sandy wakes up, seeing how I did the same to lite-RP Gearstride. Actually, as I think about it, it was also after a night of heavy drinking. That's...oddly coordinated of us.

    So I'm considering making a pony who happens to be a Follower of Celestia. Will probably be mistaken for the Rebels of Celestia as per usual. Probably not liked even though he's not evil, though he is rough around the edges.

    They would have been from a fallen ex-Noble house, whose family were devout followers of Celestia. His family and the family servants were executed by The Purists of Luna, but he was able to escape death with the help of his servant boy/girl (haven't decided) who he travels with today constantly trying to evade death.

    Marked for death by The Purists, they have placed a bounty on his head for those willing to take it up, dead or alive, more for dead.

    Comments, thoughts? Hooks to connect him to someone's pony in some way?
