yea, the current incarnation of the series seems to have a "no humans in equestria" rule. (the name Arimaspi is mythological - some tribe of one-eyed humans who would fight gryphons over treasure)  It's the same with how Tirek is technically a centaur, but his upper half isn't human.

Below, Discord's home. (not shown: a hapless mailpony flailing helplessly in space)

Knowing the authors, it's probably a bugbear  :p

Are twittermites and star spiders more than a nuisance?

Twittermites appear in Applabloom's nightmare - we have no indication if they really exist at all.

Star Spiders are completely harmless despite their size

it's a kind of sympathy spell - anyone except the caster who looks at an enchanted object is overcome with a desire to have it - which is either a great distraction or a recipe for an instant brawl, depending on where you cast it.

It seems some other nerd has made it into a magic card, so there is the picture you need  :P

Hmmm...maybe cast it on an item you drop, and anything entering the same location stays there with the item and fights anything entering out of territorial jealousy?

HASBRO decided that the 100th episode will be dedicated to background characters.

The authors agreed, but knowing that with all the fanfiction written about background ponies, they'll cause an uproar no matter how they portray them, they apparently decided to pull all the stops and have fun.

The premise is that while the main cast is busy with the monster, everypony else gets caught up in a wedding that has to resheduled a day early, due to mis-dated invitations. Pictured above are Octavia and Vinyl Scratch trying to get to the town hall with the music on time.

A bit of info on Sombra. According to the MLP comic book, the shadow thing is actually his natural form - apparently there is an entire race of shadow creatures sealed under the north pole, and he was an agent they created to eventually free them, which he didn't realise until adulthood - until then he was just a mysterious orphan with no memory of his parents, an accent that sounded like something out the darker parts of Lord of the Rings, and an allergic reaction to the magic of the Crystal Heart - all of which alienated him from other kids, despite his best efforts.

New spell: Heycartes' Principle



It allows the caster to physically enter a book for more intense learning.

(double the benefits of a tome at the cost of an extra point of sanity?)
