Ace Combat: The Equestrian War/YMMV

• Complete Monster: With the revelation that Red Cyclone is planning genocide of the ponies, he certainly qualifies.
  • Gilda may also count, given the gleefully sadistic way in which she thrashes Rainbow and breaks Medley's wings.
• Ensemble Darkpony: Lightning Bolt, Cloud Kicker and Medley.
• Faux Symbolism: Talisman's cutie mark shows two angelic wings.
• Magnificent Bastard: Black Star. Despite ruining Firefly's life, he appears to have done it for a purpose known only to himself.
• Moral Event Horizon: General Silverbeak arguably crossed it by suggesting a plan to kidnap little fillies and using them as hostages in the early phase of the war. It is revealed in chapter 14 that it was actually Red Cyclone's idea.
  • Gilda's betrayal and her brutal pummeling of Rainbow Dash in chapter 11.
• Sacrificial Lamb / Lion: Carrot Top.
• Take That: Slip, to Slippy Toad.
• The Woobie: Derpy and Cloud Kicker in chapter 15, when the former is traumatized upon seeing Carrot Top die before her very eyes and the latter letting the Water Works on when she fears Lightning Bolt may suffer the same fate. They really need a hug or two...
  • Firefly had a really rough life to say the least.
