Description

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Qilin
 
Because I’ve been getting this a lot lately, and it does actually bother me.  
No, draconies aren’t qilin/kirin.  
No, any dragon/pony hybrid isn’t kirin.  
That’s like saying any mix between man and bull is a Minotaur.  
Qilin might be a mix between dragon and horse (although they are more often likened to deer, along with tiger, ox and fish), but they are not the result of a union between the two species.”

I believe it would be more accurate to refer to dragon-pony hybrids as “Longma” (a chinese word formed by combining the words for “dragon” & “horse” and is used describe such a hybrid creature) as opposed to Kirin/Qilin. Kirin/Qilin are a completely separate species from ponies or dragons.

And so Spike and Rarity’s kid married Discord and Pinkie’s kid, who married a deer.
 
NOW you see why racial purity is important?

My favorite is still Amethyst Lace. She looks like such an elegant gothic abomination who’d make her parents frown for her life choices
