The End wasn't The End - Found a new home after the great exodus of 2012

When becoming a royal guard, Celestia blesses you with power in a way that matches your race.
 
Pegasai get a feather from Celestia implanted into both their wings.  
Unicorns receive a small piece of her horn embedded into their own.  
And Earth Ponies……any suggestions?

Well, here’s my Crazy Headcanon. Ages ago, in Pre-Discord times, humans did exist in Equestria. They were never really much of a threat due to being so much weaker than ponies and the other sapient creatures. However, they had two things that they were better at than any other creature.
 
  1. They were better tool users and as such could build better and more advanced technology. 2. They were able to adapt to change better than any other creature.
     
    However, they hated being so weak and being made fun of for it. That hate slowly turned into repressed chaos. When Discord arrived, they humans willing supported him by doing things like cheering him on while he caused chaos.
     
    Now, due to all of humanity’s repressed chaos, they were pretty much the second most chaotic creatures in the world, second only to Discord. As such, he spared them of his chaos and instead passively fed on the chaotic energy they had by drawing it out of them by entertaining them with his magic, thus supercharging his own powers.
     
    In the aftermath of the Discord Vs Celestia and Luna battle, all humans vanished, but there tech remained. Not even Celestia and Luna know where the humans went. No other creatures in present day besides Celestia and Luna knows they even existed.
     
    Some ponies though don’t believe that all the tech they use was made by ponies, or that it was made for Minotaur hands or Gryphon claws. Some think, that despite any historical evidence to prove them right, they think that some unknown creatures made the tech.
     
    Some ponies try to use said tech like the unknown creatures would. Like by sitting on benches in odd ways, or holding objects in ways that other ponies might find strange. Well, that’s my Strange Headcanon, I’ve thought it up for a while and decided to share it.

The End wasn't The End - Found a new home after the great exodus of 2012

Lingering Wyvern
Flutterponies were nearly wiped out by magic pollution (pretty sure that’s a thing). The last of them, Maple, barely managed to survive the poison and it changed her into the original changeling queen, renamed Mab. All other queens are decended from her, including Chrysalis and her sisters (which she has). Changeling legends say she did not truly die, but rose to a higher plane of existence, one where love is in endless bounty. When changelings die, they are said to have joined the First Mother Mab to become part of the Great Overswarm.

The End wasn't The End - Found a new home after the great exodus of 2012

Gamer Luna does exist, but not in the way most would think.
 
Luna was too shy to go back out into society, so she spent most of her time in her room. Celestia offered her some rehabilitation, but since this would take a long time, she gave her a couple of games to keep her entertained. While it took a few weeks to figure out, Luna grew to love this strange technology…almost too much. She eventually began skipping her rehabilitation sessions, not wanting to stop playing in order to do so.
 
Eventually, she practically barricades her room, only allowing servant ponies to enter with food. Soon enough, she begins neglecting her own hygiene, and even begins to put on some weight.
 
Tired of being trying to be more patient (after all that nasty Nightmare Moon business), Celestia goes full drill sargent and whips Luna right back into shape.
 
And that’s why Luna was late to the wedding; she’d just finished that day’s workout and had to hop in the shower before getting dressed and attending the wedding.

Kelpies are a thing. Water-dwelling and earth ponylike creatures that feed on meat exclusively and change into a variety of swamp and forest plants.

Spike, like all dragons, can smell whether or not someone is a virgin. He just doesn’t bring it up since it only causes trouble.

Who knew how many virgin mares were abducted by dragons during Medieval Equestria. Another way to appease them was to offer them ridiculous amounts of gem, which was pretty hard to come by during that age.

Since the Beginning  -

Equestria has virtually no standing military aside from the mostly ceremonial royal guard, as no other power on the planet wants to go to war with a nation that can inflict famine on a whim simply by refusing to raise the sun.
 
Thus the only real threats against Equestria are roaming criminals like the Diamond Dogs (who are too small scale to be a threat) or incredibly short sighted like the changelings.

Diamond Tiara isn’t a little jerk because she has issues with her daddy. She doesn’t feel unloved or anything. She’s a creep because Chrysalis is her mom and is being raised that way.
 
The only reason she was afraid of Bab’s possible tattling was because Chrysalis thinks highly of manipulating behind the scenes, and very low of just scaring others into submission.
 
Filthy Rich has an odd taste in women.

The changelings showed the ability to use mind control, as well as magic of their own. Putting the whammy on enough unicorns to raise the sun, or turning into unicorns and raising it themselves isn’t out of the question.
 
Hmmmmmn…
 
Headcannon: The changelings were planning on conquering the Equestrians and taking the duty of turning day and night for themselves. They would then use that as leverage to extort love from the rest of the world. As with the unicorns before them, the rest of the world could not afford defeating the changelings.

Another Crazy Headcanon I came up with. The Changelings are feeding on the Equestria wide magic aura from the Crystal Heart. You know, the one that was to spread the feelings of Hope and Love across the land if the Crystal Heart was powered by positive emotions.

We have yet to see what the Crystal Empire looks like at night, if they even have night at all. It seems underneath the barrier, the Crystal Ponies have a perpetual daylight source. I’m thinking other nations have their own Astrological/Climate systems too. Doesn’t make any astronomical sense? Well this a a cartoon, deal with it.

Though if worse came to worse, unicorns could work together and raise/lower the sun. The spell is buried deep in their subconscious, but it’s there.

Ooh, I like that! Since we haven’t seen whether the Crystal Empire actually has any sort of military (Shining Armor is Captain of the Guard, of course, but they’re mostly in Canterlot and surrounding areas), maybe the Changelings are mercenaries who are paid partially in money, partially in food (love)?

I think the spell has been modded to the princesses to do alone, but the original spell is initiated by a small group and gathers energy from all of Equestria’s unicorns to be successful.
 
Think of it as a spirit bomb kind of arrangement.

Ponies can manipulate objects with their hooves because their hooves are made of the same substance as unicorn horns, and can therefore channel small amounts of magic.
