So, most of you know me, I'm Diamond Dancer, of the muck, and we've been running a pretty RP intensive story arc. I'm callin for a huge finale this Saturday night (including the mane 6) for everyone to come and be apart of the story's grand finale!
Don't know whats been going on? Here's a quick Recap of the major plot points
-Diamond arrives in Ponyville looking for Princess Luna to help with her 'wish'
-Diamond's wish is revealed that she wants a 'star from the sky' under the impression that if she can get a star, she can make a wish upon it, and get a family. She is an orphan. Diamond has been trying to 'grab' a star by flying as high as she possibly can. She holds the record for the highest flier in the world, but cannot reach the stars.
-Diamond is revealed to be a remarkably good flier, and discovered, via Firefly that she is an elite. She leaves a contrail of sparkles in her wake when she flies and at top speed, leaves a beam of light behind her. While remarkable at flying, Diamond is terrible at landing, and has never fully mastered the art, often crashing face first into the ground.
-Diamond is discovered to have 'diamond durability' her bones are denser than normal, and she heals at a higher rate than normal ponies. When she tenses her body, she can survive impacts that would normally squash other ponies flat!
-Flying so high in the air without atmosphere or protection has resulted in Diamond receiving a disease called 'Icarus Syndrome' Her body is decaying at an accelerated rate. Her legs, muzzle, ears, and wings, no longer have feeling and the disease is spreading to her body.
-Diamond Befriends Rainbow Dash, Fluttershy, Pinkie Pie, Night Raven, and Rarity, among others. Pinkie Serves Diamond at SCC and promises they'll be sisters, while Rainbow gives Diamond a place to stay. Fluttershy promises Diamond they'll figure out a cure for her disease, and Rarity crafts a cloak for Diamond to wear when flying, to keep her spirits up.
-Diamond arrives in Canterlot to discuss her situation with Luna, but ends up meeting with Celestia instead, who offers medical treatment by the Canterlot Castle Staff to see if they can't find a cure.
-While in the castle, Diamond starts hearing whispers and having dreams about a creature trapped in the royal archives. Promising her 'extra time' to fulfill her dreams and promising her it can help her get her star, Diamond is tricked into smashing an orb she finds in the Canterlot basement.
-The Orb contains a creature that possesses Diamond, and takes control of her body, feeding off the fear she feels and fear it creates in other ponies. It pretends to be Nightmare Moon to drum up additional terror in ponies around it, and squares off against Princess Celestia. It is revealed the creature is NOT nightmare moon, but refers to itself as 'the nightmare' none the less.
-Princess Celestia manages to suppress the creature inside of Diamond, Discovering that Diamond is still inside, struggling to regain control. Diamond and the Princess Share a few words before the creature regains control, and flees the castle.
-Using Diamond's Nigh Invulnerability, trickery, lies and deceit, the creature grows stronger and stronger, changing Diamond's body, and gaining additional powers, capturing ponies and forcing them to live out their most horrifying inner fears, feeding off it's terror.
-Diamond encounters Pinkie, Fluttershy and Rainbow, Scope and others and square off. Rainbow manages to break Diamond's Ribs in a frontal attack but is knocked unconscious. Pinkie and Fluttershy promise Diamond that things will be ok, calming Diamonds inner fears long enough for her to regain control and flee, fearful of hurting her friends.
-Diamond approaches Fluttershy's cottage to test her latest abilities, but is frozen by Fluttershy's Stare, leading Diamond to regain control of herself, and beg for help, also explaining to Fluttershy what little she knows about the creature inhabiting her body.
-Diamond hides in EverFree forest, and has grown strong enough to challenge the ponies of ponyville directly. She attacks The cafe, assaulting Blue Feather, Alsoomse, and Red Velvet, draining them of fear before being driven off by Scope.
-Diamond returns, and faces off against Scope and Firefly the next day. While managing to hold her own in combat, Diamond is Driven off when Princess Celestia arrives.
-Diamond is hunted down Mixtape, But Diamond turns the tables and defeats her. Diamond discovers Red Velvet is still alive and the creature inside of her decides she wants a new host, and begins hunting Red Velvet, to feed off the fear Red has for her foal might be hurt.
-Diamond Runs into Alsoomse in Canterlot while hunting Red Velvet and they destroy Red Velvet's Club before Alsoomse can escape.
-Diamond appears again in Ponyville, eager to feed, and runs into Fluttershy, whom reminds Diamond of her wish to collect a star, and that she'd 'never' give up no matter what. Combined with promises that she'll be 'alright' and that they can work together as friends and 'sisters' to combat the creature inside, Diamond regains control of her body once again, suppressing the creature.
-Diamond, fearful that she'll lose control and be possessed by the creature within her, feverishly searches ponyville for answers to the situation, aware that she could lose control once again at any minute!
This, is where we are now. What is this THING that's possessing Diamond Dancer? How can it be stopped? How do you stop a pony that can fall from the stratosphere, slam into the ground like a meteor, and walk away that same day?! Tune in on Saturday to find out!
