Equestrian Defender


Fighting for Truth, Justice, and the Equestrian way!

T

Takes place shortly after Season 6

Twilight Sparkle and her friends are faced with a new enemy, one who has a long history with Princess Celestia, Princess Luna, and the Elements of Harmony.
And he plans to bring eternal peace and harmony, but at a terrible cost.

Fortunately, the Mane 6 will have help from friends new and old, and will unlock powers they never knew were even possible.

Get ready for the beginning of the greatest adventure of all time, as Twilight and her friends go from being Bearers of Harmony, to Heroes of Equestria!

PS: The crossover tag is because certain characters will be getting similar powers to famous heroes from the DC comics/movies/shows. Just believe in the impossible, and trust in the Speed Force. :pinkiehappy:

EDIT: 3/28/2018: Changed the title, as well as the tags.

Void's the Equestrian version of Darkseid, isn't he?

Hmm... leaning towards darkseid given the visonary evil busienss, Necron would simply want to kill everything and the anti-monitor I just don't think would fit eclipse's motives.

I know there was a villain that was dead set on good and evil forgot his name tho

8831454
You'll see soon enough.
But here's a hint: Which villain in DC has the famous Omega Beams?

8831056

8831002
Ding! Ding! Ding! We have a winner. Somebody get these two a prize!

Yeah, I couldn't find any of the canon villians in MLP that would fit the bill. So I made one.

And yes, Void will have Darkseid's famous Omega Beams.

8832038
I honestly didn't think of that.

But now that I have, not really. Despite everything that Tirek did in canon, I didn't really find him to be Darkseid material. Steppenwolf maybe, but not one of the biggest bads in the DC universe.

And now that I just said that... :raritystarry: IDEA!

8840696
Thank you. I just published Chapter 3. Needless to say, Everything Changes. :pinkiehappy:

8841075
I know the feel. I've got some epic twists in my fic, too.

My name Pinkie Pie, and I am the fastest mare alive. To the rest of Equestria, I am the go-to for any party Amy day, but in secret, with the help of my friends, I fight bad guys and stop other meta-ponies like me. I am.... The Dash.

Dash: HEY! That’s my name, ya know!

Does Pinkie get to have Jay Garrick's awesome mercury helmet?

Also twilight took her castle getting blown up vastly better than the last time someone blew up her home...

8842283
Uh, no. She's actually going to get a costume similar to when she was Filli-Second when she and the Mane Six were the Power Ponies in Spike's comic book. But with some updates. And a Lightning Bolt insignia on her costume, since apparently every Speedster has one somewhere.

8842200
HAHA! Not bad dude.

Unfortunately, I'm not calling her The Dash, mainly because that name has been used. Repeatedly. And it doesn't really work unless it's Rainbow Dash.

Okay, so Pinkie is Flash.... and I'm GUESSING Luna is going to be Cyborg? Let's see, who else do we need? I won't put it past Daring Do to find the pony world equivilent of Themyscira. Batmare can probably be a member of the Rich family. Supermare would need to be an OC, and Aquamare can be Skystar. Boom Justice League completed.

So I'm guessing the plan is for at least each of the main 6 to become an analog for a DC hero. Pinkie is The Flash which works, course Dash is usually the Flash analog but I have seen her work well as both Superman and Batman but honestly between the 2 she fits better with Superman. Though honestly I have no clue who is gonna be who.

Course obviously it won't line up perfectly with Justice League after all it's not like they can have a Martian Manhunter... although Sunset does have experience changing forms in order to fit in on an alien world and she already has empathic powers that allow her to read minds so with a little power boost she might work.

I'm going to keep the Superman and Batman analogs a secret, for now. But trust me, they will be surprising. Well, Superman anyway. And I plan to leave Aquamare for a later time as I already have the first iteration of the Justice League set out. And here they are:

Pinkie Pie will be the Flash, frankly because if I were going to make Rainbow Dash the Flash I'd have this set in the Equestria Girls universe. Pony version of Rainbow Dash can reach Mach 10 with the Sonic Rainboom. She's fast enough as it is.

Rainbow Dash will actually be Equestria's first ever Green Lantern. Of all the Mane 6, I find her to have the necessary courage and willpower for the job.

Applejack will be the analog for Wonder Woman (or Wonder Mare) and I had a plan for her and Daring Do to find a map that belonged to AJ's mother that led to Themyscira. Since Applejack bore the Element of Honesty and many fans consider Wonder Woman to be DC's Spirit of Truth, it's actually pretty fitting in my mind.

I actually have Thorax planned out as the Martian Manhunter (or Changeling Hunter) since he can already shapeshift. The Tree of Harmony's destruction basically has the same effect as the Particle Accelerator in the CW Flash series, so it'll also give him telepathic and telekinetic abilities.

And last but not least, we have a certain mare from the Crystal Empire as the analog for Green Arrow. Well, she's just going to be called the Arrow and her outfit will be pink, but you get the idea. This version will be more based of Stephen Amell's portrayal of the character from the CW Arrow series, but she won't be killing other ponies unless there's no other option.

I have ideas for other characters, but I'll keep those under wraps for now.

9002551
Cadence as the Arrow? Hmmm, makes sense, I guess. Though you'll need to have backstory for her to become that at some point in time. Also, Applejack being WonderMare, while it makes sense character-wise, I'll need some more conniving on the backstory.

9002551
Excited to see who Supermare and Batmare are, my prediction is Twilight is Supermare, because alicorn is OP, and Batmare is Starlight, 'cause I feel it makes the most sense. Dash as Green Lantern? Nice. And Martian Manhunter is Thorax? Makes sense. I'm excited for what's to come!

9002847
I'm fine tuning the backstory as we speak, but I got most of it down.
Basically, she gets kidnapped by members of her own royal guard (who aren't Changelings) and taken to an uncharted island far from the Crystal Empire. She then has her Alicorn magic drained, for reasons I'll keep quiet, and after a failed escape attempt her captors put her through several horrifying tortures, one of which involves cutting off her wings.
She eventually escapes and spends the next two years surviving against her captors and whatever horrors are on the island with nothing but a bow an arrows, until she manages to escape a la signal fire.

At that point in the story crime rates have gone up all over Equestria, and the Crystal Empire is no exception. So naturally, she decides to use her newfound skills to take them down. And thus she becomes... the Arrow.

9002854
Uh, no and no. I actually haven't gotten Twilight an analog yet, mostly because I haven't really found a DC Hero she matches up with. That and I'm fairly certain she doesn't come from another planet.

And no, Starlight will not be Batmare. Though she will be part of my cast for MLP/DC: Legends of Tomorrow. SPOILER!

9004264
Yay! I love Legends of Tomorrow! are you going to adapt Season 1, or will you be skipping that?

9007684
Fair enough. Will Vibe be worked in at some point to team up with Pinkie?

9004429
I do plan to adapt Season 1, though I will be changing some of the plot elements and trying to cut out some of the moments that I thought were stupid or cringe-worthy. Like most fanfic writers.
But I'm having a hard time picking out who will analog Kendra and Carter (Hawkgirl and Hawkman). And some of the other characters, like White Canary. As for a few of the heroes, I'll leave that for another day.
Though I will say I found a hero for Twilight Sparkle to analog, and they're part of this team.

And without a doubt, King Sombra (though a very different one, as you shall see) will be our Vandal Savage. And this scene will be in it!

9007784
OMG, I love that line! Will Starlight and Trixie be the Snart and Heatwave analogs?

9007784
I can help with that!

I would say that Discord and FLuttershy would make for a good Hawk couple, if you're a Fluttercord shipper.

And for White Canary... well, you need her to die at some point. and have a close tie to Cadence, since she's the Green Arrow analog. If Starlight weren't Captain Cold, I'd use her, but if not Starlight, I'd say Twilight. Since Shining Armor is obviously going to be a Laurel analog now, it'd make sense that Twilight is the Sara analog, since they're siblings. Then Sunburst can be Felicity and Flash Sentry can be Diggle.

Thoughts?

9007863
Uh, no. I actually plan to have an OC-Pony for Captain Cold and an OC-Griffon for Heatwave. Mainly because I don't really think Trixie or Starlight are pyromaniacs.

9007881
Oh, boy. I forgot to mention but this isn't going to be a play-by-play of the shows themselves, so certain plot elements won't be showing up or be the same. I plan to work in some of the comics, some of the various movies (not including the Joel Schumaker suck-fests) So not everything in Arrow, Flash, Supergirl, and Legends of Tomorrow will be the same in this story.

For Discord and Fluttershy? Possible, but not likely. It would take a lot of explaining for how an immortal spirit of Disharmony can die but I can make it work.
The problem is that they've known each other for quite a while by this point in the story. I'm pretty sure Discord would have remembered their past lives by now. And if that were the case, he would do almost everything possible to protect her, not sell her out to Tirek. I may ship them in my Top 10, but I don't think they would fit in this case.

For the White Canary part? I could actually make Starlight Glimmer as White Canary. It would actually tie into a plot element since I plan to write Sunburst as the analog for Malcom Merlyn, aka the Magician. Yeah, in my story his parents were murdered in Canterlot and nopony seemed to care since they were poor, which drove him to the League of Assassins to take his revenge on Canterlot. Starlight tries to stop him, but he's too far gone and he puts three arrows in her, which would be a reference to Sara. I'd need to work out more of the story, but thanks for the idea.

But to clarify, and spoil, things...
I actually plan to make Twilight merge with Sunset to make the Firestorm analog, Magistorm, after they try to recreate the Elements of Harmony using advanced technomagic they created. And no, neither of them will die like Ronnie or Professor Stein.

Shining Armor would actually be John Diggle/Spartan in this case, because he has the military experience and because he and Cadance are already married, so we don't need a Felicity Smoak character. Personally, I don't like her, mainly because I ship Oliver and Laurel.

Flash Sentry was either going to be James Olsen/Guardian or Roy Harper/Arsenal. Still flexible on that one.

Trixie, I don't know who she'll be. Someone who uses magic.

And I plan to make a certain glasses-wearing unicorn mare the analog for Ray Palmer/Atom. Hint: She studied with Twilight and I hinted at it in chapter 1. (cough*Moondance Enterprises*cough)

Oh, and thanks for the Watch.

9010000
Twilight and Sunset as Firestorm? Part of the reason why they worked so well in the comics was because of not only age difference, but also levels in magic intellect. What about Sunset and Starswirl? Now THAT'd be good.

9010000
And as far as Discord and Fluttershy goes, well, we need a ship in the show that's like, OG. Hmmmm. OH! A younger Bright Mac and Pear Butter!! They both died just after Apple Bloom, and there was never a canon explanation to what they died from. Say they were reborn directly after that, and if enough time has passed, they can be the Hawk Couple.

9010000
And Sunburst and Starlight are friends. Malcolm needs to be someone older in the show. What about Night Light? That way you can have Twilight and Shining go through a similar arc Thea did in Arrow.

9010000
Sunburst needs to be a character that's book smart. He could be Vibe, since The Atom and Firestorm are taken. Or maybe he can be like a Winn Schott character for Supermare? I can actually see a lot of Winn in Sunburst. Or perhaps even Rip Hunter? I could see him passing on the Waverider analog to Starlight. That'd make sense.

9009949
If you still need an OC for Captain Cold, I could offer mine up. He's, like, my FAVORITE Arrowverse character.

9010019
BRILLIANT!

And that could tie into Applejack becoming Wonder Mare. Pear Butter and Bright Mac were worried that Sombra might come for thier children, so they left the map just in case. Pear Butter herself went there in a past life to learn how to fight Sombra, which didn't end well, obviously, so the Amazons would recognize Applejack as her daughter and be more willing to train her. Thank you.

9010051
Hold up. Remember, only one of them remembers their past lives at first. I'd say Bright Mac remembers from the beginning, and Pear Butter only regains them later on once Bright Mac finds her again.

9010013
Yeah, that actually works better. But she'll have to be the 2nd Firestorm then.

And maybe instead I'll make Twilight Ray Palmer/the Atom? Actually that works better, again.

I'm definitely giving you credit for these ideas when I get around to writing them. Thank you.

9010057
Yeah, I think Twilight is definitely Ray Palmer-esque, because she's VERY nerdy like he is.

9010057
Maybe Moondancer could be the Nate Heywood/Steel analog someday??

9010070
Cheese Sandwich: Too much like Pinkie.

Double Diamond: Not sure.

Time Turner: Not what I'm looking for. Besides, he'll have a role to play in LoT.

I need a pony who can be fun-loving, sarcastic, but can also be smart, serious and handle themselves in a fight (when we get to that.)

What about Vinyl Scratch? She's already been a vampire-pony in fimfics, so why not a meta-pony?

9010079
I think it’d be funnier if she were a Constantine analog, eh?
