WELL I STILL WANT TO DE-DEMON SOLAR.

And since people are still interested in doing the purifying adventure, and also it involves the Magic of Friendship which is basically 'weird things happen because magic and friendship,' I might as well go full on indulgent.

So basic thing I'm going to do is make a sort of PSEUDO HEART DUNGEON type thing with some Specifics Of Solar, but also there is Ancient Magic in play to allow for some non-character specific Things To Happen.

One of my ideas is Element Of Harmony Magic Granting. AKA, everyone can have a superpower to play with, ala Equestria Girls. What that means? Define a Core Part of how your character is connected to others. What is that one thing they bring to the friendship table? Loyalty, honesty, empathy, generosity, etc. Basically character trait that allows you to connect to people. Now think of a power that can be related to said power. It can be straight forward, or it can be kind of obtuse, just so long as you can explain from point A to point B, it's legit. (Feel free to ask for more details if you have trouble figuring it out.)

Another suggested is everyone gets a Cutie Mark somewhere! A Cutie Mark relates to a person's Special Talent, the thing that makes them, them. Which can be you're real good at cooking, or you're good at cheering people up, just something you and something Important To Your Character at their core.

Also there might be a way to turn people into ponies if you want, you do you, I just enable.

AND WITH THAT.

Do YOU guys want to do something you think an Element of Harmony Ancient Spirit or Corrupted Ancient Magic might facilitate happening? Because I am here to indulge any and all I can while making it make sense.

POWERS

Mostly for my own tracking/making challenges for anything that's kind of specialized.

I definitely vote for turning into ponies for maximum pony fun.

Cutie Marks

Return of the Pony Materia for anyone who remembers Sabra.

I'm super here for this, with either Faito or Meri or both!

The hard part will be coming up with the element and power for Meri hmmm HMMM

IF IT HELPS, having the 'tougher' side of the connection is also important.

Like sure, kindness is about being nice and supportive and lending a helping hand, but sometimes it's also tough love, telling a friend to stop doing a bad thing because that's ultimately the kinder thing even if it sucks to have to be harsh for it.

It's less that, and more about her "canon" role of being the embodiment of magic and interconnectedness tripping me up 8|a ... like if I did this for her in her canon she'd probably have something bs like the ELEMENT OF UNITY

which doesn't work so well here

I MEAN, that is basically what Twilight is. Being the Element of Magic which acts as a focal for harmony, more or less. And Sunset is a focal with Empathy.

So there can be Multiple Focal Elements.
