Meh, Gilda feels to selfish to really be a hero of anykind.
Then again I don't find jerks as entertaining as other people in this thread so I tend to not have a high opinion of them by default.

You know the dragons wouldn't put up with Discord either. I bet when Celestia and Luna (or whoever it was) defied Discord for the first time every other species on the world decided to do the same.
I wonder if Discord had an army back in the day. An army of brainwashed servants and horrific chimeras.
I could see Gilda falling into Type V in a darker series but not this one.

Or demon ponies.....
I had an idea for a Chimera...who was basicly the three stooges in the one body.

Depends how much risk. There's risk to your life doing pretty much anything. I don't know how much risk she'd find acceptable though.
Shame. He could make some killer minions. No villains in this show have had minions.
I don't mean a standard Chimera I mean the sort where random bodies have random different parts. I don't know if there's a name for those.

The only minions we've had are the 'Dig Dogs', those dogs who wear armour and who do most of the heavy work.

Led by the first Blueblood, made into a prince for his/her heroic efforts. Maybe Starswirl the Bearded was there. Do we have any time frame for him other than more than 1000 years ago?
No, I will not read your Pro Gilda.
I would pay to see that. Bonus points if Garruk moves to Equestria and befriends Fluttershy.

How do YOU know? We've never seen her in a dangerous situation, and it's clear that she cares for RD on SOME level, so why WOULDN'T she protect her?
Stop being so negative! None of us are white-washing what she's done, we just don't think that's ALL there is to her

Well I don't believe that.
Gilda was nice enough to befriend Dash, and she's obsessed with being awesome.
What's a good way to be awesome? Be a Hero.

I could definitely see her risking her life for Rainbow Dash, anyone else significantly less so. Unless she goes through some major character development I can't see her doing anything really heroic.

Oh yeah. So they do.
She's a Totally Radical Griffon who doesn't play by the rules, she's a Weak But Skilled Unicorn who is constantly boasting and he's a Blue Blooded Prince who would really prefer not to get dirty. Together they fight crime.
I have no idea why I did that. They would be the worst crime fighting trio ever.

That reminds me. I have this theory that part of a pegasus's inherent magical power is immunity to all bludgeoning damage and gravitational effects.

Twilight can take a beating too.
It's because the Ponies are Toons. Toons are more or less invincible.
Because it would be funny to watch?
Pretty much. It's hard to discuss who is sturdier when all the characters can withstand any form of damage as long as humor called for it.
