Alicorn

Little is known about Alicorns as a race, except that they very rare.

Alicorn magic is not fully understood, but it is known that Alicorns have the magical powers of Unicorns, the flying abilites of the Pegasi, and the strength of the good, true-hearted Earth Ponies. It is for this reason that other types of ponies often turn into Alicorns to solve disputes between one another.

Unlike the other types of pony, an Alicorn is not usually born as an Alicorn but earns the right to become one by displaying a great act the signifies their special powers. Little is known about how this happens, except that it is very rare, and it only happens when Feralden is in need of a new ruler. For example, Twilight Sparkle became an Alicorn when Feralden needed her powers of friendship more than ever! Recently, the birth of Flurry Heart was the first instance of a pony being born an Alicorn.

Although powerful and beautiful, Alicorns are just as sensitive as other ponies, and most often love to be treated like any other pony. Many ponies find this hard, always wanting to show respect and politeness, which can mean that Alicorns may find true friends. But with a little persistence they can form the strongest of bonds.

In Tails of Thedastria, your character cannot be an Alicorn.

• Tirek’s time imprisoned in Tartarus left him very weak, but he slowly regained in strength and when he was able to use his dark powers again, he unleashed his vengeance on Thedastria. Celestia Maric, having experienced visions of Tirek’s return, sought the help of Discord to track down the fugitive. Discord betrayed the ponies of Thedastria and joined forced with Tirek. Tirek stole so much magic that he gained the power to steal flight, and rendered the Pegasi flightless. Without the Pegasi to control the weather, no rain would fall on Thedastria. He also stole the strength from earth ponies, making them unable to tend the land. All the while he grew stronger and bigger, his ultimate dream being to steal Alicorn magic.
