I do not know what a Nyx is, but at a guess I'd say she's probably Twilight's daughter, probably with King Sombra.

Well, Twilight's adopted daughter.

OC from the... divisive fanfic Past Sins, which I have not read.

It's better than most think :V For one thing it stays in character for the most part.

You could also read the fanfic Creeping Darkness. Nyx (well, someone who is essentially an alternate-universe Nyx) shows up in that one, too, but she has a much smaller role.

In fact, the positive response to Nyx from Creeping Darkness was what convinced the author to write Past Sins in the first place.

Pannic why not read it? You normally just read stuff you hate anyway.

Clearly, he doesn't hate it enough to read it.

Just haven't gotten around to it. It might be a nice addition to the liveblog. Also, yeah, she originated in Creeping Darkness, but Past Sins is the big famous one. Hm. Wasn't Creeping Darkness an Alan Wake crossover?

no really, it's not a bad story. Some people just don't gel with a little alicorn filly who's actually Nightmare Moon.

I think the story handled the whole thing fairly well, personally.

I've never read it.

Maybe I should sometime.

School in about 50 minutes. Going to try drawing Pinkamena Diane Pie today.

Still want to cuddle a pony :3

Yes, Creeping Darkness was an Alan Wake crossover.

I've no familiarity with AW, but I enjoyed CD all the same.

I should finish Alan Wake. I enjoyed it as far as I got.

@Ace

It would be pretty cool.

But you better hope to God that you get the Mane Six, not Steve's Six.

Don't worry, I won't Slide into your universe :V

The Steviverse?

The United States of Equestria, 1985-1988. SteveLine

An alternate United States that fell under a quasi-socialist diarchy.

Princess Celestia was born at exactly midday, 100 BC. Luna was born at exactly midnight, 1 AD.

Discord was apparently killed in the year 345 AD.

Princess Luna, under the control of an alien parasite, attempted a military coup in the year 985 AD. It failed, leaving the Equestrian military decimated and Luna imprisoned on the Moon.

The Crystal Empire revolted, with Equestrian assistance, in the year 989 AD. King Sombra was executed, and his spirit sealed in the magnetic North Pole.

Twilight Sparkle was born in 1966 (19 in Season One. 22 in Season 3.)

Leo can be so forward sometimes

I haven't gotten around to reading the revision yet.

...LADY Marmalade?

Dawww :3

I finished reading Past Sins version 1 just yersterday. It was good actually, maybe a bit too dark, like the sudden violence felt...sudden. And the ending was kind of forced still and enjoyable read.

I´ve begun verion 2, which is revised and set to canon of season 2 (so no annoying Luna dream walker powers wich would have solved the plot of this fic in five seconds) and its a better read overall.

And why does everybody hates OC? Wasn´t that like one of the funniest parts of the fandom? To get involved into the fictional world of the show and create an avatar of sorts? I´ve always wanted an OC but everybody saying they are the scum of the earth and deserve to die makes me feel uncomfrtable and thus I never made one.

Badly-made Overpowered OCs are what's hated. No-one really hates the likes of Velvet and Strap, and even Milky Way the Milkmare of Trottingham is popular because she has an interesting personality and the writing is funny.

Are you suuuuure it's not because she has huge... tracts of land?

I thought Milky Way was popular because of boobs.

I don't really appreciate that kind. Eurgh.
