“ | What we have done has actually saved the world so far, because it served its balance. That's what I'm here for. Equestria would suffocate at all its harmony, if spirits like me wouldn't keep things in balance. That's how the world works, Pinkie. You can't have light... without darkness. So there is no doubt about it: You and I are the best world savers ever. | „ |
~ Plague to Pinkie Pie. |
The Six Winged Serpent, more well-known as Plague or the Ghost of Violence, is the titular main antagonist of the My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic fan comic The Six Winged Serpent by Culu-Bluebeaver.
Appearance[]
“ | Spike: Twilight... What... is that? Rarity: Whatever it is it has no style. Not at all. |

~ Spike and Rarity upon first seeing Plague. |
Plague is, as his other name implies, a serpent with six wings. He is massive, able to pick up ponies like toys, and his skin, feathers and hair are completely black, the only exceptions in his body being some glowing red stripes along his body and his red irises, as well as his white fangs. His hair, wings, sclera and claws are also slightly darker than the rest of his body.
His soul is a red glow akin to a flame and was close to Plague's real appearance when he was restoring his body.

Presenting himself as the Spirit of Cruelty and Violence (much like Discord, the Spirit of Chaos and Disharmony), Plague was a cold, calculating, and callous sadist, openly stating that he enjoyed the suffering and despair of Equestrians; his favorite method of torment was to trick them into thinking that what they were doing under his guidance was right before eventually revealing the truth to them, taking extreme pleasure in their anguished or desperate expressions as he tortured them physically or psychologically.
A near-godlike figure in his world, Plague has absolutely no regard for the lives of anyone who inhabits Equestria; he views all Equestrians as nothing more than sacrifices to be made for the sake of balance in Equestria. He also genuinely enjoyed turning Equestrians into his servants (while always keeping them ignorant of the truth of their actions under his direction), using his manipulative skills to falsely coerce them into doing what he liked in order to achieve his goals. Although he often appears rather overconfident, Plague possesses a high level of intelligence and is cautious in his approach to everything he does, fully understanding the strengths and weaknesses of his power and making sure to exploit and avoid them in order to succeed. His very high intelligence may also be the reason why he looks down on normal Equestrians, genuinely believing them to be pathetic and worthless.
Due to his carefree and unstable nature, he was prone to joking, playful, and inappropriate behavior. Because of this, he was greatly disliked by Rainbow Dash, Applejack, and Twilight Sparkle for his constantly annoying careless, sadistic, and childish behavior, as well as his complete indifference to his bloody actions against Equestrians, and his complete lack of remorse for all the crimes he has committed.
Underneath his carefree, self-assured, sadistic, and unassuming demeanor, Pestilence is a cold and calculating monster with an extremely high intelligence. Plague has been shown to manipulate Equestrians into doing his bidding without even realizing it, such as forcing Pinkie Pie to kill Equestria's population by subtly convincing her that such "sacrifices" would save Equestria from the end of the world, influencing her with words alone, without resorting to magic at all. His extremely long lifespan has also given him great strategic intelligence and the ability to think tactically. Being a quick-witted strategist, Plague is able to handle adverse situations against himself with extreme speed and success, though this is primarily due to the fact that killing innocents or losing his subordinates means absolutely nothing to him in the long run.
Due to his perceived superiority and rather duplicitous nature, he feels no attachment to his minions, using them and discarding them as disposable pawns once they have accomplished all he needs them to do. He is able to skillfully sway many Equestrians to his side, claiming that they are useful to Equestria and will protect it from the end of the world as long as they serve him and do as he tells them. His intellect and manipulation shines especially here, as many find his words to be entirely truthful, as he encounters many of his subordinates either at their lowest point or in a moment of doubt about what they are doing. In the end, all of these statements are ultimately false, given that Plague only cares about himself and does not hesitate to physically and psychologically torture his subordinates after they are no longer useful to him.
Biography[]
Long ago, likely around 1000 years ago or more, Plague appeared in the peaceful land of Equestria and massacred countless ponies, in an attempt to, in his own words, remind them how short life can be.
The rulers of Equestria, Princess Celestia and Princess Luna, used the magical artifacts known as the Elements of Harmony to send him far away into the Everfree Forest, trapping him in the form of a tree. Centuries later, a lightning bolt from a thunderstorm struck the tree, freeing his soul.
Being a spirit without a body, he had no real way of continuing his work by himself, so he possessed a pony known as Pinkie Pie, one of the current wielders of the Elements of Harmony, shortly after she and her friends defeated the corrupted Princess Luna, then known as Nightmare Moon.
For many months, Plague became a voice that whispered lies in Pinkie's head, killing and spreading suffering and despair so that Plague's soul could gain enough power to recreate his body, though in his eyes, all the lies told to Pinkie about helping the world were a Universal truth.
After torturing his latest victim, Rainbow Dash, Plague had gained enough power to restore himself, even if Pinkie had been incapable of killing Rainbow since she was one of her best friends and the reason she got her cutie mark.
Plague rose anew in the middle of Ponyville, surrounded by curious ponies and the current wielders of the Elements of Harmony (known as the Mane Six), the leader of whom, Twilight Sparkle, knew of Plague as the legendary Six Winged Serpent, though the snake preferred to go by Plague since it's what Princess Celestia always called him.
He explained to the Mane Six what he had been doing these last few months through Pinkie and started killing ponies in Ponyville once the Elements of Harmony were shown to have no effect on the serpent.
Powers and Abilities[]
While probably not as powerful as Discord, Plague is still a force to be reckoned with and one of the most powerful entities encountered by the ponies of Friendship is Magic, stated to be unstoppable except for the Elements of Harmony.
Twilight Sparkle's magic blasts had absolutely no effect on him and he could effortlessly catch lightning bolts and even redirect them with deadly accuracy. His sharp claws and large limbs allow him to slice and tear ponies apart with ease. Beyond his own physicality, he possesses some magic of his own, able to teleport around, lift objects in the air with telekinesis and shoot laser-like beams of energy. It's also stated that the pain and suffering of others only strengthens him, implying any harmful attempts on his person would likely only make him stronger.
A freezing spell from Twilight seemed to have an effect on him, though he seemingly brushed it off without much trouble.

- His position and imprisonment are very similar to Hexxus from FernGully: The Last Rainforest.
