My Little Pony (Generation 5)

This is how I, Coolot1, alongside DonaldoC1997, envision the Generation 5 of My Little Pony.

Synopsis
Set in a land inhabited by ponies, dragons and other kinds of animals, a small group of ponies alongside their dragon friend head to find out any possible threat that haunts Equestria and learn more about the secrets of the region and the reason of the mysterious disappearance of Lady Comet.

Main

 * Lady Celestia - a protective  but rather naïve unicorn who leads the Core Five and wants to find out the secrets of Equestria as she is out for aventure while seeking the truth behind her mother's disappearance.
 * Nightmare Celestia - Celestia's corrupted form who manifests after she got into touch with the Nightmare Forces as she is out to cause chaos and destruction of all of Equestria.
 * Lady Luna - Celestia's brainiac younger sister who is obsessed with knowledge and follows her in their quest to find out why their mother left them, hoping that they can be reunited with her.
 * Spike - a wise but rather jokey dragon who is the royal sisters' loyal adviser and adoptive uncle, joining the Core Five in their adventures and being Waterfall's crush as well.
 * Eclipse - a gothic Earth pony who reluctantly joins the Core Five as she believes that the world they live in is way too happy for their own good.
 * Waterfall - a friendly pegasus who loves to make new friends and collecting bugs, having a crush on Spike as well, nicknaming him "Spikey".
 * Isabelle - a lazy Earth pony who prefers to play video games rather than being out for adventure, often being dragged by Celestia to join the team.

Supporting

 * Lord Emperus - Celestia and Luna's caring father who is the ruler of Equestria and looks for them while dealing with several royal problems.
 * Steed - an Earth Pony who is Emperus' rather cowardly counselor and often warns about the dangers that live in Equestria.
 * Touchdown - a competitive male pegasus who befriends the Core Five and who Celestia has a crush on, despite being unaware of her affections.
 * Mystica - a self-absorbed unicorn who is often bragging about her wealth and whom Celestia has a strong dislike of, since she is more successful than her in relation to cash and fame.
 * Sir Hooves - an adventurous male unicorn who is out for peril and often comes to advice the Core Five about several perils across Equestria for their safety, being Celestia's idol.
 * Captain Glamour - a fashionista Earth pony who is the captain of the guards and a good friend to the royals, being Isabelle's mother as well, often embarrassing her when trying to make her more like a proper lady.
 * Eve - a wise unicorn who serves as a maid to the royals, providing advice and aid to the Core Five.

Antagonists

 * Lady Comet/Empress Hollow - a diabolical alicorn who believes that ponies should join forces to obey her orders and make Equestria her own empire, being later revealed as Celestia and Luna's mother.
 * Carrion - Hollow's loyal second-in-command who is responsible for her army and often TBD.
 * Soulmaster - a comedic but still menacing chimera who rules the Underdown and is rather angry in relation to the Core Five's attempts to free the region from his influence.
 * Lord Sombra - a tyrannical unicorn who once ruled the Crystal Lands until he was overthrown, being now out for revenge on the ones who made him what he is today.
 * The Dragoness - a vile female dragon who is out to destroy and ransack several lands, wanting to take down the world for her own purposes.
 * Shadow - a mad broken-horned unicorn who plans on taking revenge on everyone who made her the monster she is today.
 * Grogar - a power-hungry ancient ram who aims to take control of the world by using dark TBD.

Trivia

 * Despite reusing concepts from previous generations, Generation 5's developers want to make it more attractive to both classic and newer fans by including newer concepts for characters and make it rather darker by developing new myths and legends along with an ongoing mystery.
 * The designs for the characters are the following:
 * Celestia and Luna are essentially younger versions of their G4 countrparts as unicorns.
 * Spike is the exact opposite, being his G4 design, but older.
 * Eclipse has long straight purple hair and black fur, having a skull cutie mark.
 * Waterfall has short wavy dark blue hair and grey fur, having a leaf cutie mark.
 * Isabelle has long curly red hair and orange fur, having a pillow cutie mark.
 * Unlike their G4 counterparts, Celestia and Luna were aged down to the same age as the remaining Core Five members, being now unicorns as well.
 * Also unlike G4, Celestia is the one to be corrupted by the Nightmare Forces rather than Luna.
 * The franchise fans' often nickname this generation as "The Teen Age" due to featuring younger versions of Celestia and Luna in the lead roles.
 * The franchise fans' often nickname this generation as "The Teen Age" due to featuring younger versions of Celestia and Luna in the lead roles.
