Shimmy Shorts is an ongoing collection of one shots/small stories set in the Shimmerverse written by my friend Ausbrony (though I help on occasion). It is a severely underrated story and I would really appreciate it if you would all go over and check it out. Even better, I recommend leaving a comment. It would make the both of us rather chipper to see that. So don't waste any time and I really hope you all enjoy it. I know I do.

A mistake on my part was made when I was writing the time frames for events in the Shimmerverse Equestria. Mostly due to just counting down to the present day, which honestly isn't something I like. So I've decided to make a new start and point to history in the Shimmerverse.

The Griffon Pantheon is much smaller then Equestria's own pantheon and most others. It has only six gods, all of which are attributed to one aspect: war. The griffons were a race of warriors even in ancient times. They never had much time or thought to gods in ancient ages as they spent most of their time just fighting and kill each other or other sapients, mostly warring against the pegasi. It wasn't until Discord's age that they received their favored gods.

The Soul. The Afterlife. Both are aspects of life and death itself when looking at the old scriptures of ancient religious scholars. They were the best 'guess' the ancestors of all sapients on Equis had. There were many discussions, arguments, and even conflicts over these ideas and how they are applied to the self and the world around them.

Do sapients have souls? Do non-sapients have souls? What is a soul? What happens when we die?

Pre-Celestia’s Reign was marked with countless wars in Equestria’s history. There were scant years when Equestria wasn’t fighting some foe or another. This, while a travesty, has sharpened Equestria’s army to the point of near perfection when it comes to warfare. Equestria knows and has tried at one point or another, every method of warfare available. Tried and perfected it. They  had to in order to survive almost constant war.

Long before Equestria was even a thought, a good majority of the world was once ruled by the deer. They were able to do this because of their abilities to predict the future and their cunning. Given that there weren't any large countries or anything of the sort back then to oppose them, their ascension to domination of the planet was secure.

1: Ulfheðnar

Similar to the Berserkers of their pony kin, Ulfheðnar, are the chosen strongest of their tribes and cities. They are sent out to live in the wilderness and in doing so, commune with their sacred animal, the wolf. This allows them to fight with ferocity and skill greater then a normal being and also allows them to transform into large wolves in order to tear apart their foes.

Equestria has a long and bloody history, which isn't surprising since Equestria is one of the oldest nations to exist. For around ten thousand years, Equestria has faces its hardships and near ruin on some occasions. During these long thousands of years, there have been several 'Epochs' that make up Equestrian history. Where power would shift hooves and Equestria itself was reformed. This has happened seven times thus far. For the purpose of this document, the seven epochs will be briefly

Hello everyone. Evowizard here. I more or less wanted to use this blog to address something that I rather do need help on and that would be the Shimmerverse's TV tropes. I'm not wholly the greatest with finding tropes and sorting out the page so I was wondering if anyone here would be willing to look over and possibly organize and/or add tropes that are appropriate to the stories. I would be very grateful for the assistance.

1: Radiator

Large, bulbous changelings usually 2-3 times the size of ponies. These bloated changelings were created sometime after the changelings were hit by a number of Megaspells. They were crafted to absorb the excess magical radiation and eventually the changeling queens, most notably the ones in affected areas, came to use them offensively. These creatures can fire their radiation cargoes to disintegrate their foes and absorbing the leftover radiation around them.

Hello everyone. It's Evo here and I wanted to let you all know what is up with the Shimmerverse.

Equestria is home to many gods and pantheons, many of which are the leading gods of other nations but are somewhat worshiped in parts of Equestria due to Equestria's freedom of worship, which is encouraged by Celestia herself. Three main pantheons, however, primarily make their home in Equestria. The Greek/Roman pantheon is worshiped by the humans of Equestria who make up a sizable portion of the population and have greatly influenced the country. Thusly, many Equestrians worship them as well.

Crystal Empire

1: Crystal Infantry

Stronger and sturdier then even their earth pony ancestors, Crystal Ponies are not to be trifled with in close combat. Typically armed with spears and lances, they are keen on running down their enemy and smashing them to pieces for the Crystal Empire and Equestria as a whole.

2: Cryraptor
