MLP G5 Pilot: The Harvest

by aceotaku


Introduction

So, I had an idea. How about, instead of just writing a fanfic based on friendship is magic, I instead write a series that is more or elss an original story only slightly based on the series as a whole, create my own canon with its own setting, mythology and characters with a greater emphasis on story arcs, myth arcs and adventure based monster/villain of the week plots. However, to make it better, after the initial arc, I will allow fans to decide on plots and what characters get focused on via comments, pms and what ahve yous, as well write their own 'episodes' themselves. And the stories will be put in as episodes in an imaginary 'season', so it'll be as if the whole thing is a fan made G5. Of course, it all depends on who is interested in this idea...

For those that have an idea for an episode, simply write it up and then post it, and let me know about it so we can sort it all out in canon.

Any questions or ideas, just leave a comment or pm.



What makes G5 Different And Seperate from G4

*it's Darker and Edgier. Not Grimdark, but still more PG than G rated

* Less focus on morals and slice of life and much more emphasis on adventure and action. If that's not for you, this isn't for you.

*Greater focus on story arcs and myth arcs, which I will plant seeds for in the future.

*No status quo. Things that have a big impact and change the story and setting and affect the characters will not be retconned or changed back simply. There will be lasting consequences.

*The world has a greater emphasis, so we will end seeing other places or at least have them mentioned, as well as a greater in universe mythos.

*There will be a prevalence for more intimidating and darker villains, as well as a greater prevalence of recurring antagonists.

*Since there is no status quo, as in the series is not static and remain constantly the same season to season, the cast may or may not grow larger beyond its principle side characters and heroes and extras.

*There will be a greater tighter discussion between authors of the verse (somehow) so we can keep tabs on each other, where we want to story to go and if that is acceptable and just what we will be doing as our main story/myth arc.

Now, please enjoy: episode one...
