Scorpan (My Little Pony): Difference between revisions

'''Scorpan''' is one of [[Tirek (My Little Pony)|Tirek's]] highest generals, in fact, he was his only soldier with a name or unique design. He may look scary, but he actually likes hugs and cuddling. He has a good heart and gentle personality underneath his monstrous exterior, with a lighthearted sense of humor to boot.

Scorpan was actually a human [[prince]] who at one point befriended the kind dragon [[Spike (My Little Pony)|Spike]]. At another unspecified point, he was transmuted into a hideous rat-like creature, presumably by the [[Tirek (My Little Pony)|Tirek]] using the power of the [[Rainbow of Darkness]]. Scorpan acted as the commander of Tirek's army, commanding an [[Tirek's dragons|army of dragons]] to invade [[Dream Castle]] in order to kidnap the ponies. He only managed to nab three of the four ponies Tirek requested him to do so. What would happen if he recieved all four is unknown, but it could be assumed that Tirek promised to turn him back into a human if he did.

When he failed, Tirek threatened to decapitate Spike if he could not get a fourth pony back to [[Midnight Castle]] by [[midnight]]. Upon hearing this threat, Scorpan gave up trying to please Tirek and instead broke the ponies free from his captivity. With his help, the ponies were capable of defeating Tirek and overpowering the Rainbow of Darkness with their own [[Rainbow of Light]]. After the effects of the darkness subsisted, Scorpan was reverted into his normal form as a human. There, he shared a hearty laugh with his new found pony friends.

* Along with Tirek, Scorpan is among the most famous characters in the entire generation 1 canon, due to his frightening appearance and sympathetic role in the series.

* Likewise, the ''Friendship is Magic'' Scorpan was born as Gargoyle instead. Additionally, that version of Scorpan was Tirek's younger brother and loved him dearly, while this Scorpan hated Tirek.
