So I'm not the only one who believes that you've given us the perfect name for the next arc, right? "Chaos Theory"?
Since it's our job to monitor Stand Users, might as well start with the 6 you absolutely know about in Ponyville. First of all though, you've gotta fill Canny in on what the Princesses have taught you since she's just kind of winging things and is the adventurous sort.
You and Canny get to know them better, put up with their antics and character tics, and in someways you two have to be the teachers.
Except for Pinkie that is, where you learn that she has had her Stand since she was little. You also learn more about her sister she mentioned who has a different kind of power.
"Yeah, Maude met this Neightalian Zebra when we were teens and he taught her how to stand on water and to punch with the power of the sun while breathing loudly, now she can break giant boulders with a single punch and often she goes out "Hunting" as she calls it for weeks on end. Something about fighting the terrors of the night. I don't know, but it's not a Stand."
"That's...interesting," you say overwhelmed by that info.
"Yeah, I thought so too. My sisters Limestone and Marble tried to get this sunlight punching power, but I guess they weren't good at it. They did learn this neat trick where they can make rocks and other things spin real fast in their hooves before launching them though."
"...And you're all earth ponies?"
"Yepper Depper," she smiles.
When chatting/teaching Fluttershy, you find that out of the others, hers is the most epicly terrifying looking Stand you've seen. It looks like a bipedal wolf, with razor sharp claws, surrounding by a whisping black cloak.

"Powerwolf! Don't snarl at our guests!" she chides the terrifying stand. And while you still feel a bit like pissing yourself, the menacing aura around it does diminish.
"I'm so sorry," Fluttershy apologizes. "I'm still trying to teach him friend from foe..."
"R-Right...sure," you gulp.
As for some other stands, here's some name suggestions.
Rainbow Dash: Rainbow In The Dark (Obviously )
Rarity: Black Veil Bride
Applejack: Folsom Prison (Or any Johnny Cash themed stand for the Country Girl)
And I'd be fine with a new ending song. Are we aloud to make suggestions?
Question: would I be able to submit an OC specifically for this story, and have that OC not be one of the "sapient" races? Like how Iggy was a dog that developed the power of the Fool Stand, and how the Horus Stand was used by the falcon Pet Shop?

The Maud part here is good, but it's already been established that the Elements are responsible for the Mane 6 having Stands. Maybe Pinkie's exposure to Hamon through her sister and just her nature in general allowed her to realize her potential sooner than others?
9589932
Maybe for the others, but Pinkie was able to see New Divide when the others didn't. I bet she's happy now that all her friends can see them too.
9589954
Pinkie was able to see New Divide before the Mane 6 went to Canterlot for the events of Return of Harmony. Which was post first time use of the Elements AKA Nightmare Moon. She still gained hers from the Elements.
Hence why I suggested that maybe her exposure to Hamon through Maud and Spin through Limestone and Marble may have helped her awaken to her Stand powers sooner.
9589961
Not necessarily
Just because she used the Elements doesn't mean she got it from them just like the rest.
Also, if they all got them from the elements then why didn't the others see new divide till the baloon?
Even those that havent discovered their stand can see them.
Maybe it has something to do with Discord turning them grey? Maybe he awoke their potential in doing so.
Or we could also theorize that the elements made them all worthy and discord arrow ed them while they were turning grey.
9590036
Or it could just be that they had the potential from birth, the Elements awakened that potential, and Pinkie was the first to realize her potential. It doesn't have to be as convoluted as Discord using the Arrow on them, which HE WOULD HAVE NO REASON TO DO SO AS IT WOULD MAKE MORE PROBLEMS FOR HIM/GIVE THEM MORE WAYS TO STOP HIM.
And besides, it was outright said in two of the early chapters that the Elements GRANT THEIR WIELDERS STANDS.
9590047
No reason to yell.
I'm just trying to come up with a reason why Pinkie saw New Divide chapters ago when no one else did and make it make sense. (I like closing plot holes)
Realizing her potential earlier than the others is good, bit it still doesn't explain why they didn't see it.
Since the Elements grant stands, they should've been able to, whether they knew they had one or not.
Maybe the others had to be near their Elements again to fully awaken? Like when they got ungreyed by Twilight and became worthy to wear them again? That would fit with why the others only saw it in the balloon and how Pinkie was able to see it chapters ago if she awoke her stand first
9590080
I honestly do not see whatever plot hole you think there is. And counterargument: It's Pinkie. Do you really expect to be able to wrap it up in a nice and neat bow given she's at the center of it?
9590087
Maybe not for her, but for the others.
Her reality warping aside, the other 5 more or less work on grounded rules.
So yes I do want to wrap a bow neatly for the other 5. It doesn't even have to be grand, just a throwaway line, but something. And I think the 5 normal ones needing another dose of Element time works well for your explanation with Pinkie awakening first since she grew up around the bizarre.
PS: Sorry for blowing up your inbox with comments like this Greatness

9590087
Do I need to step in and reveal behind the scenes stuff to resolve this? Because you both have good points, but Pinkie seeing it at the treehouse wasn't a plothole and yet something I cut supported something else.
9590277
Well if it's too spoilery I won't ask you to.
If it's some story thing you've yet to reveal just ignore our conspiracy theories
9589913
Yes. That is indeed allowed.
9590277
I thought the matter had already resolved itself?
9590315
It did. I meant story resolution. Like saying something aloud would focus thoughts so that I could focus on continuing to provide something good.
9590297
Gotcha.
9590302
Alright then.
The particular OC idea I had in mind was a female Timberwolf who named herself Lupina after gaining sapience. Her Stand is called Evolution(named after the song by Korn), and it is a worn Stand that takes the form of a small thorn and vine diadem with a green central jewel on her head. Said jewel glows when she activates her Stand.
Evolution's power is the ability to manipulate plants and trees in a certain radius(roughly 15 meters) around Lupina, in addition to controlling the evolution of those plants and trees. This control allows her to rapidly accelerate the growth of said plants or parts of the plants, mutating them to fit her need. She is also able to mutate the plant material in her own body to a lesser degree, allowing her to reinforce her limbs or cause blades to grow, as examples. The aforementioned radius moves with the diadem.
Evolution's drawbacks are that she can only control 4 active mutations at a time, she can not mutate both her environment and herself at the same time, and that if a plant that she was controlling gets outside the radius, she loses control of it and it loses its mutations.
(P.S. If possible, I would prefer Lupina to be an ally of the heroes. With or without the pre-requisite fight, your choice.)
9590440
Alright, added to the Grand Stand List. Well, Lupina is an OC with a Stand. So, erm, we don't have a Grand OC List, so I'll just hold onto her for later usage.
9590445
Sounds good!

So, re-read the comment chain, and yes, you actually did resolve it. Guess I mis-read. Thank you for straightening it out at some point, and don't worry about a flooded inbox.
To be quite honest, seeing "10" over my mail got me super excited. :D
before i do my contribution this time around
was that Endless Debt? if it is, okay, wouldn't expect her to have that stand, if not, i've got an idea for an OC that can be a sort of frenemy for Shooting Star that can be a recurring character that can have that stand (please note that i could give this guy a different stand if need be so don't go changing Twilights stand on my account)
9591942
It is not Endless Debt. So, post your OC and contribution freely!
9592047
Okay I'll start with the OC
since I already went over Endless Debt's strengths and weaknesses WAY back at the start I won't wast time going over it again
Name - Cinders
species - Dragon
age - around whatever Ember is considered
appearance- a dark gray for his scales and an orangey red for his belly, claws and back spikes or whatever those are called
his size is actually around Smolders because he's "the runt of the litter" as it were, and because of this and how dragons act he was bullied, a lot, so much so when he went though his molt he didn't go back to them, and went on a walkabout of sorts, never staying in one place for long.
physically he is is about as strong as your average pony what with him being a runt among dragons
personality-wise he's brash and self-centered but no where near as much as say Garble. in fact he's actively trying to be better about that after seeing how ponys treat each-other but not as hard as he could be. and as you can image with a stand like Endless Debt he likes to push "his" luck.
at the end of the day though he means well even if he comes off as rude
maybe in like a weak or two after where this chapter leaves off we can have Star coming across some ponys who seem to be having some rotten luck, and him thinking something like "a lot of ponys are having it ruff around here, could a stand give others bad luck?" after which he follows the path of unlucky ponys to find Cinders, where after a bit of talking they begin to fight
9592342
Alrighty, then! I'll add him to the list of OCs To Come.
Question: Are the Deer within the Everfree part of this universe?
9592906
I'm gonna say that's up to you. :)
9592940
Alright, cause I had an idea for a plot hook where a Deer or group of Deer are attacking or raiding Equestrian towns near the Everfree, Ponyville included. And the leader(s) of said group would be Stand users. Naturally, our heroes would have to confront them, most likely going into the Everfree to do so.
9592959
Okay, then! Should be fine to use.
9592350
Will you post a list of OC that have been suggested?
9600464
Of course! I'll do that in a blog post along with Stands I still want to use. :)
