Contains spoilers for "Friendship games"

After having become friends the five Shadowbolts from Crystal Prep Academy spent their first Friday night together. However, the distinct personalities of Sour Sweet, Sugarcoat, Indigo Zap, Lemon Zest and Sunny Flare make it hard to find common ground. In the end, they can only decide on something none of them is really eager to do: Play a table top role-playing game. At first the prospect of spending their Friday night with nerd stuff in a gloomy basement doesn't excite them very much. But the deeper they dive into the adventure, the more intrigued the nerdy game seems to catch their interest...

Anon-A-Miss has been wreaking havoc all over Canterlot High. Secrets are spread and trust is broken. The Rainbooms go to confront their 'friend' Sunset Shimmer, but are surprised by what they find instead.

When Twilight and her friends went to sleep one night, they were ordinary ponies. When they woke up, they had been transformed. They no longer were covered in fur, their hoofs were replaced by strange appendages, and they no longer had wings or magic. Now, until a way to transform them back can be found, the Main 6 will have to learn how to deal with their new bodies, as well as the reactions that the other citizens of Equestria have towards them.

Six months had passed since Spike had vanished during Twilight's ascension. Six months of frantic searching, worry, and finally grief for the Mane 6 and princesses

That is, until a strange object lands during Twilight and Tirek's battle, carrying the lost drake back home...with a few changes and one heck of a story.

(Inspired by Tatsurou's 'Another Hatchling')

Once upon a time in the magical land of Equestria...

That's how these stories usually start, but in a world where heroes of legend fell to corruption that once great nation is no more, and now only lingering divided remnants exist in its stead.

Enter Adagio Dazzle, a young and ambitious noble eager to prove herself and what better way to do so then by hosting the annual memorial festival. Unfortunately this year's commemoration is to be held in Ponyville where she must contend with an overzealous political extremist, an insane chef, a belligerent team of forest rangers, and an uncooperative weather patrol.

To make matters worst within the nearby untamed wilds of the Everfree Forest a storm is brewing. Not just any storm, but a herald of ancient evils soon to return.

For as the old saying goes, when it rains....it pours.

Now with a TV Tropes page!

The Cooper Gang has faced many hurdles since they left the orphanage together. Each heist held its own hazards, its own problems, and its own consequences if anything went wrong. However, by working together, Sly, Bentley, and Murray have handled everything thrown their way.

However, their next mission saddles the raccoon leader of this little band of thieves with two hurdles he never anticipated, ones he'll have to handle himself: romance and fatherhood. After all, how could he resist the allure of the lovely Carmelita Fox, even if she is on the side of law enforcement? And an orphan himself, he could never turn his back on the lost, alone, and scared Coco Pommel, a tiny pony filly small enough to fit in his hand...and threatened by the worst of the worst of the criminal world.

Little did he know just how much these decisions would change all their lives.

Equestria has been at peace ever since King Solaris had taken the throne. But with war on the horizon, he must leave to protect his ponies from harm. While away, Prince Discord, a relative of King Solaris, brings chaos over the land. It’s up to Rainbow Hood and her group of misfits to save the day. Of course, for Rainbow and her awesome hero saving skills, it’ll be as easy as clearing the sky. Or so she thinks. Will she be the hero Trottingham needs or will something unexpected make her drop from the sky in “ten-seconds flat”.

If there's anything Rainbow Dash likes more than a good prank, it's being told that she's good at pranking. So when Princesses Celestia and Luna show up at her front door to tell her just that, she is delighted and not suspicious in the very least.

This'll end great. Just you watch.
