Well, 'Friendship Blossoms' is also a good choice for beginners. It shows how the different ponies with their unique personalities come together and form strong bonds. The fanfic has a lot of dialogue that helps you get to know each character better, and the plot is not overly complicated.
One factor is staying true to the characters. If the fanfic writers keep the personalities of the MLP friends as we know them from the original show, it usually becomes popular. For example, Twilight's love for learning and Pinkie Pie's exuberance.
First, create your original character (OC). Decide on its appearance, personality, and backstory. For example, if it's a unicorn, think about what kind of magic it has. Then, come up with a basic plot idea. It could be an adventure, a friendship story, or something else.
First, think about the basic plot. Decide if it's a crossover where the two worlds interact, or if it's just one character from one series in the world of the other. For example, if you want to write about Pinkie Pie in Sodor, consider what she would do there. Maybe she'd throw parties for the trains. Then, create an outline of the story. Start with an introduction that sets the scene, like Pinkie Pie arriving on Sodor by a magical portal.
One good idea is a time - travel fanfic. For example, the ponies accidentally travel back in time to the founding of Equestria. They get to see how the different pony tribes came together and learn about the origin of their magic and society. But their presence in the past starts to cause some disruptions, and they have to figure out a way to fix things without changing history too much. This could involve interacting with the ancient ponies and learning valuable lessons about their own present - day Equestria.
They are official characters in the MLP universe. There's no evidence to suggest they began as fanfic. They were introduced through the official show and related official media, and they have their own storylines and personalities within the official framework.
Yes, they did. There are many fan - created stories that preceded their official appearance in the My Little Pony franchise. These fanfics helped to build a sort of fan - based lore around the characters, which later influenced their official portrayals to some extent.
Vinyl and Octavia from MLP are not fanfic creations. They were developed by the official team behind the franchise for the show and related media. Their designs and storylines were part of the official creative process.
I'm not sure. Maybe it's possible, but I haven't come across definite information.
One great MLP Princess Celestia fanfic is 'The Sun's Daughter'. It delves deep into her backstory and her relationship with Luna. It shows a more vulnerable side of Celestia which is really interesting.
One idea could be to have the ponies from MLP end up in the Ninjago world. Maybe Twilight Sparkle could use her magic to help the Ninjas in a big battle against an ancient evil. The contrast between the colorful and magical ponies and the more martial arts - based Ninjago characters would create an interesting dynamic.
