The Trioverse April 1st Revamp! · 3:59pm Apr 1st, 2016
In light of Starlight Shimmer's recent and completely official inclusion into the mane cast, I feel it's necessary to make some changes to The Trioverse. And though these changes may seem a bit sudden, I assure you, they've been foreshadowed for months. So without further ado, I present a list of changes that'll go live over the next few weeks:
Equal representation!
If you've read all the stories in The Trioverse, then you're well aware of a lack of earth pony representation. Instead of writing a new story focused completely on Applejack and her time traveling woes, I figured it would be easier, and quicker, if I simply turned Sunset Shimmer into an earth pony. She's easily the most physically fit of the trio, has a high affinity to plant life, and is very stubborn. She's practically already an earth pony!
And oh my goodness. UNICORNS. They dominate every story! Expect there to be a lot less unicorns in the coming chapters.
Oh, and I guess pegasi are there too. Unless you haven't read Teal Changeling, which, as the pony side of things goes, is loaded with pegasi, current and future! But, outside of that one story which is not worth reading and is small compared to the other stories, pegasi could use some love too...
Dragons!
There are not enough dragons in my stories. There will soon be dragons, everywhere. I hope you like Spike, because he's going to be really busy once these changes go live!
Expect more draconies/dragonponies/qilin/kirin in the future!
Patreon!
I make a dollar over min. wage, so extra money is what I need. As such, I'll be holding back on chapter releases, giving supporters access to a week advanced viewing. I'll also post your names at the end of every single chapter, and make blog posts for the swag livelihood items I was able to gain from your support!
75% More Foals!
It's come to my attention that there were NO FOALS in Midnight's Radiance or Loyal Knight. As a staple in every other Trioverse entry, I feel I really dropped the ball on this, and will change MR & LK to fall in line. In the changed versions, Trixie will be suffering from a spell gone wrong, turning her back into a filly for the entirety of the arc MR & LK take place in.
Now I know choosing Trixie may seem a bit drastic, but if my story isn't instilling diabetes in someone, then it's not a true Trioverse story!
Wait, what's that you say, there were no foals in Bond Building? You actually read that? That whole story was supposed to be a joke!
More Romance!
Redacted.
A Set Writing Schedule!
Yeah, because that's worked so well in the past.
I assure you, I now have a foolproof schedule to hold too that's guaranteed to have every story updated regularly. There is a surefire bet that they will be updated, at least once, before HL3 releases.
More Fallout 4!
The Trioverse will never be as dark and gritty as this blog pic.
I've managed to sink in 300 hours into the game so far, so why not sink some of those hours into writing a crossover story? The main character will be Black Bullet, a dark stallion with a red mane who is definitely not an alicorn. His gripping struggle will be about how everyone turns to him to save the day, since he's an overpowered alicorn! He just wants everyone to not kill, and is a proud champion of Love and Pieces with a dark and pretzel past. It's very salty.
This will all, of course, take place in the Trioverse. Hope you're as exited as I am!
Because It Kills Me:
And finally, I pulled Luna's Protege off of Fimfiction. Patreon supporters will still be able to read it, assuming you didn't download before it was pulled. The story had far too many thumbs. Every time I want to try something new and exciting, I kept looking at that story and thought, "It'll never be as popular as Luna's Protege". And so, it is gone, forever. I feel the other entries of the verse can still stand alone without it to hold them up.
Now, I know what you're thinking: 'Gee, Mr. Alterad, this is all really exciting and awesome! When will all of this go live?'
Well, have no fear, my dear fan. Spoilers below!
Happy April Fools. There is a nugget of truth in every green segment. I hope you found some amusement in this. Enjoy the rest of the unofficial holiday!
I read this. Halfway along I paused to take a break.
Now the wall is broken and my forehead hurts.
Good job

Wow, that was smoother than silk.
I'll think about it once my brain functions again!
You got me all excited, I really wanted to see earth pony Sunset Shimmer (who probably needs to be renamed to something like Orange Passionfruit if she's going to be an earth pony) and filly Trixie explore the ruins of Boston!

Fixed that for you.
And just who do you think is married to Orange Passionfruit? Why, none other than Black Bullet! Who is also Trixie's father.
The blue filly will really take after her mother in the fallout story. Her mother being Rainbow Dash.

Did anypony else just feel a chill run down their spine?
