Pinkie is a Sin-Eater of the Forgotten...whatever that series calles there classes. Anyway, the evil sack of flour was her Geist, but Pinkie out-crazied it and now sits very still in Sugercube Corner.

Rarity does make a great fairest, but if your going for one pony per line, that means someone has to be a vampire, and I don't think that Applejack is more Vampire than Rarity.

As for the Wolves, I just think that the Apple Family angle makes them the more obvious wolves, as the whole pack thing should be a significant theme.

I know next to nothing about geist. But what does vampire mixing well with geist have to do with anything? Applejack and Pinkie do so very little together.

Its a tie-in, which are overwhelmingly separate canons. Unless we have a particular reason too, like the staff saying they are.

Seriously everypony needs to figure out that if it isn't on air its pretty much not canon.

Mayor Mare for example, still is canonically only known by her title.

Yes, wonderful. I'm going to have to let this play out in my head a little bit. In fact, I'm almost tempted to write something, if I had any idea where the story would go and I wasn't currently crushed by schoolwork.

Zecora in particular fits really well. Though the Disquiet must either have less power in Equestria, or something very strange is up with Apple Bloom. I'm not terribly familiar with Promethean, but I do know that even other supernaturals get hit by Disquiet.

Personally, I'd shuffle it a bit. Rarity fits too well with the blood-suckers, Applejack and the apple family make a great pack of werewolves, (especially with the whole granny smith, zap apples, timberwolves thing), and Fluttershy would make a pretty good changeling (Taken by a Fae because she is pretty and ornamental and won't make any irritating noises? To the Fae, she would be a perfectly adorable decoration, or a pretty little servant, or even an exhibit in a glass cage, like a pinned butterfly).
I can see Applejack as a vampire, mostly because of that one Halloween fic that got passed around. Though your ideas are neat as well. I'd see Fluttershy ending up as either a Wizened or a Fairest under those conditions. Rarity is obviously a Deava. Applejack's auspice and tribe are a bit harder to pin down. I can see arguments for both Rahu and Elodoth, with Rahu being a bit stronger. Maybe the Apple family works on its own outside of the Tribes.

Hmm, now I want to go and see how WoD mythology could transfer over to Equestria. I'll get back to you guys on that...

While one could have Rarity swept off her hooves by some charming stallion, only for him to attack her jugular and leave her for dead, thats nearly, dare I say it, typical. Most !!vampire!! fics in the fanbase revolve around either her or Twilight, so Vampyjack-

More notes include the Everfree being a prime source of unhappy spirits of both Werewolf and Geist flavor, Rex and Katrina showing up as a pair of wayword Changelings, with Katrina nearly at the brink of going True Fae, Sunnytown getting its first party in a few hundred years, and Zecora being the first entity most of the main six goes to talk to about there respective conditions.

Well for a start Toreador are oWoD, not nWoD, which is what we are discussing. (Well, technically they still exist, but only as an offshoot bloodline.)

Resolves anything?

Season 1, episode 3. Twilight makes a decision regarding the tickets.
Season 2, episode 2. Twilight restores her friends so that the Elements of Harmony can be used.
Season 2, episode 24. Twilight discerns precisely who vandalized Pinkie's cake.

There are other examples I thought of, but I figured they were too close to your conditions for comfort.

No, but the three (Applejack, Fluttershy, and Pinkie) would be among the first to find out each-others "situation", and all of them would eventualy deal with things in the Everfree Forest (Sire-finding, spirit-dealing, and spirit-partying accordingly). By contrast, Twilight would have a general idea that Rarity is..off during "her" stay in Canterlot, while Dash would return to Ponyville knowing something odd is going down but has no clue that the activity she is half-investigating is being caused by her own friends.

Wouldn't grimdark mostly be just horror? I mean, it is a setting where everything is bad and everything that happens just makes things worse, where there are no good endings, and where the only ones getting out of it are the ignorant and the monsters. The biggest difference I've seen between the two are the protagonists - grimdark tends to have heroic characters fail while horror uses mundane ones - but that seems to make it more of a heroic horror genre.

Of course, I realize that grimdark has changed a bit from it's "original" meaning. It originally was used to describe W40k in an overly dramatic manner, as both GRIM and DARK and thus GRIMDARK. W40k is grim and it is dark, but it does throw a lot of humor in the form of parody around. Calling W40k horror might be as accurate as calling Diskworld heroic fantasy - technically correct but it kind of ignores the whole self-parody aspect of it.

Then again, most of the stories I've read that could be described as "grimdark" involve a single Space Wolf omnibus and various Warhammer vampire books. Perhaps my image of the term is just slanted towards the horror genre.

(Not meant to single out SiuiS, just making conversation. Everyone, feel free to respond with your own thoughts as well.)
Less a horror film, more a slasher one. SAW is Grimdark. Horror is usually just dark, I think. Things which naturally acrete to make you feel the world is a terrible place... But in which joy can still spring. People, added to Asari setting, who are not themselves taken over by darkness can shine.

Grimdark is where two factions of evil fight over the bloated corpse of good for the choicest bits.

Nah, I would actually place AJ as a plant elemental critter, Pinkie as a fairest who partied for her master, and Rarity as a wizened gem fifer with Striking Looks.

Let's look at this. It begins with "Bronies", fair enough. The subtitle then goes on to clarify this term. So bronies are the "Extremely Unexpected Adult Fans" of My Little Pony.

My first reaction is to leave out "Extremely"; it's an unnecessary amplifier that makes the title sound garish and sensationalist, like it can't stand on its own but has to shout to convince the audience to pay attention. The next words are "Unexpected" and "Adult". "Unexpected" is... debatable, but "Adult" is, in my head, flat out false. While that may describe the public image of the bronies, I feel that it excludes many, for example the intended audience of the show. I ask, is not enjoying My Little Pony enough to make one a brony? Does one have to be "Adult" as well?

If I get to have my ways, which I don't, but if I could, I'd have changed the title to "Bronies: The Fans of My Little Pony". Because in my head, that's all there is to it.
Yeah.

I think it's just parasprite removal. However, they seem to be linked to particular buildings, so I don't recommend using them up, as building them up if needed later will probably require a bunch of annoying time assigning ponies to different buildings and then checking your iOS device frequently or waiting several days.

Also go check your game. There's a sale, you can afford Zecora or Scootaloo without having to friend anyone over the network and all buildings and ponies are 60% off right now.

The author has said that they're playing by show canon rules for the comics and he's trying to keep every story as something that could have passed muster for the show. That doesn't make the comics canon by any means, but it makes them as close to canon as non-canon can get, if that makes any sense.

Hmm. Not so sure. At least, as far as the first film goes. I didn't bother with the unnecessary sequels. (Usually the best way with Horror franchises, to be fair).

But I'm not sure I'd call Saw Grimdark, personally. It's just...a horror story.
Now, if I were to make Saw Grimdark instead of just grim and dark, what would I do?
(Spoilers for Saw)
Spoiler

Only with ponies? Or not. Not is good too.

It would be a pretty terrible movie, but might make a slightly amusing WoD campaign idea if done appropriately over the top and hammy.

Comic; Yes. Sounds about right. The comic will try and follow show canon, but does not itself influence show-canon. This sounds like a sensible and potentially excellent setup.

Ok, two unrelated questions.

First, I watched the interview with Lauren Faust at EQLA. She seems to be rather discontent with leaving Hasbro. Obviously, they don't have her story to go by anymore, but it seems there's more behind that. Is there something deeper there?

Second, on the first episode, Twilight is reading a book about the "prophecy" that will bring Nightmare Moon. But...who wrote that prophecy? Who could have? In hindsight, it wasn't much a prophecy as just something bad that happened. I mean, it's Celestia's sister. And it seems the only one who could have written that was Celestia herself. And she knew about it in present time.

Hand picked student provided with books on the subject, sent to the exact place Nightmare Moon made her re-appearence and with instructions requiring her student to meet all of the leading pillars of Ponyville society. A town she basically had founded generations ago. In easy walking distance of the resting place of the Elements of Harmony.

... I'm sure Celestia had absolutely nothing to do with the book.

Something of interest perhaps.

Pretty much anyone could have, from people researching the Nightmare Moon incident to astrologers noting that a particular star arrangement would weaken magical bonds to Princess Celestia herself. Heck, given that it's a prophecy, it could have been a prediction by Princess Luna for all we know, with Celestia amending it to its current form after Nightmare Moon was banished.

Well, that was the reason of why my favorite pony is rarity. It is my desire to know her as token mixed race pony (well, genetical percentage wise) that made her my favorite, other than her coat and mane. Still, I don't like her snotty attitude.
Then again, I think I should end my foolish quest.

Blastech, what's the highest score you've gotten in the iOS app ball-bouncing game? I get that there's a timing with the rings around the ball getting smaller for more points, but I can't seem to break 324 no matter what, and that seems low compared to the 400+ it's possible to get picking apples.

There was almost surely a falling out of some kind given that Lauren has expressed hurt feelings multiple times about no longer working on ponies anymore. Although I suspect that Phoe has an inkling as to the why, the rest of us are in the dark and I wouldn't hold your breath getting info.

It's hard to tell if it's even something malicious or not and I really think there's no way to draw a conclusion beyond the fact that Lauren Faust isn't happy that she's not working on ponies.
