    We never thought they would have returned. After the Alicorns died out, we thought Celestia and Luna were the only two left. But we would have never guessed that Celestia and Luna would betray all Ponykind to bring back the Alicorns. Even now, with their return, the land is doused in blood and destruction. Ponies of Equestria, now turn against one another, killing each other. The Alicorns, only laugh and burn the land. But, there are some that they fear. In dragon tongue, they are " Alikiin "Alicorn Born!

    Could be really awesome story.  On a side note, although it might be fun to do, try not referring to the writer in the story, it kind of pulls you out of the immersion in the story.   Keep up the good work!

    Ok I'm here! I've read the first chapter, and have a few things that could be edited.

    Now I can tell you that that (Grammatically correct double that!) prologue:

    "Many hundreds (I'm sorry... Hundreds? Luna's banishment alone took over 1000, I suggest Thousands) of years ago, Alicorns roamed around Equestria unhindered and without suppression. It was said that they showed their might at every turn to any creature that was around. But one day, these Alicorns vanished from Equestria. The only two living Alicorns are the rulers of Equestria, Princess Celestia, and Princess Luna. They rule with an even hoof and care for all ponies." Could be a ton better. It could initiate drive, purpose, and tension all at one, if it was written successfully. You see, without a successful prologue, your story fails at grabbing attention. You need a meaningful prologue in order to instill the kind of anticipative fear that you must instill in the reader for these kind of stories. I'll put this through my awesome filter and see what comes out.

    Now I may give you some warning about my filter, it's hard to process something that I don't agree with, like some grimdark, Molestia, and Cellestia the tyrant. Now this story would fall into the category of Cellestia the tyrant.

    Okay here goes...

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    ~~~ENGAGING AWESOME FILTER~~~

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~DONE~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    Thousands of years ago, before the time of harmony, lay a time of chaos and destruction. The Alicorns were to blame. These horrid beasts sought out destruction of all the lesser species, species that were not worthy to roam the world, and they did so freely and without hindrance. Until one day, the stars had had enough of the destructive forces of the alicorns, and saw them as a threat had they found a way to spread. The stars blessed upon this world a mighty foe against the alicorns, his name was Draco (Star constellation of the dragon, AKA Draconis). Draco was a wise and benevolent creature, who sought purification and harmony for the land, he was the first among a race known in his tongue as 'Alikiin'... The Alicorn Born... The Alikiin could only first be found as a dragon, until several hundred years after Draco, his grand son Riscor. Riscor was the final dragon Alikiin, and the only way that he could be sure that all chaos was removed from this world was to trap all the forces inside himself, The Great Sacrifice. The forces were far too great for his form, he was viciously warped into a beast of pure chaos as they passed through him. However with the last bit of harmony he had he created a portal for the forces to flow into, a portal to a place of unknown figure only known as (Wait for it... waaaiitt for it...) Oblivion (Well if this is an Elder Scrolls crossover, you might as well have the Plains of Oblivion here as well). Unfortunately, the last bit of harmony that Riscor retained was not enough for all the beasts, two remained, but when their souls were forced through Riscor all chaos in their form left them, they defeated Riscor and trapped him and all chaos he absorbed. With that the powers for the Alikiin were lost to the land. The two Alicorns left sought only divinity and equality for the world they were in. With their mighty powers untainted by chaos, a world began to form. They populated the world with various forms of creature, and made three different races in their figure, Unicorns, Pegasi, and Ponies of the Earth. The two alicorns grew to love the world and all that was in it, they named it Equestria, and they ruled it with harmony and love in their minds. The two alicorns came to know each other as Cellestia and Luna, Princesses of Equestria.

    Okay, that's ALL of my creative energy gone for the day, I cannot continue. My mind literally wont continue. So that's all I've got for a prologue, though it could be better still.

    Now for character development, I like to use a specific kind of strategy, anyone with half an imagination can use it.

    (This works well with OCs)

    Get the emotion, personality and figure implanted in your mind, then, as that character, figure out how (s)he'd react to a situation... Then write it down. SIMPLE!:pinkiehappy:

    ... That's all for now...

    Indeed, Pinkie Pie being chaos does make sense. It's quite possibly the only thing that explains how she does what she does. Now I'm a little more interested in what Rarity is supposed to do. It seems that the info was left out since all that was mentioned about Rarity was that she could get anything be it through persuasion, bartering, and even thievery. While that info is interesting there was nothing mentioned about where she should go to improve her abilities like the others.
