Note: I named him Master of Chaos for the page due to his famous name being blocked in school.
Summary[]
Discord is a recurring character in My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic.
He is a Draconequus and Spirit of Disharmony and Chaos who was imprisoned in stone more than a thousand years ago due to the chaos he caused in Equestria. Introduced as the primary antagonist of the Season 2 premiere, Discord later learns the value of friendship and becomes a helpful ally, albeit one often still learning the importance of trust in one's friends.

Attack Potency: High Outerverse level (Easily defeated both Celestia and Luna at once. Can effortlessly snap away King Sombra's attacks, and later confirmed that he faked getting hurt by him. Pinkie Pie with his powers stated that she could transform the entire cosmos. Created the Plunderseeds effortlessly. Stated to be able to warp all of reality. Due to mlp sharing with idw transformers cosmology and his abilities, he can transcend cosmology. On par with Accord, who re-wrote his mind into his image, which contains infinite timelines. Considered the greatest threat by Princess Luna and Celestia, making Discord far superior to the likes of Stygian, who was powerful enough power to overrun and erase every reality in existence, the amount having been cited as being infinite numerous times. The StoryWorld has its own Space-Time continuum. The Real World is above that and Limbo is a transcending world above that. Additionally, Discord is stronger than The Royal Sisters, who are stated to have infinite destructive power and should be infinitely superior to the likes of Bookworm, who completely destroyed several Storyworld realities and left them as voids of nothingness), can bypass durability with several of his powers
Speed: At least Infinite reactions, attack, magic and combat speed (Comparable to Princess Luna. Nonchalantly reacted to the Elements of Harmony. Comparable to the Pony of Shadows of another dimension that was going to invade every universe in the infinite multiverse), Irrelevant travel speed (He flew so fast that he went back in time a week)
Lifting Strength: At least Multi-Stellar with Telekinesis (Superior to Celestia, who could move multiple stars)
Striking Strength: High Outerversal
Durability: High Outerverse level (Was completely unharmed by a blast from King Sombra. Consistently fights Celestia and Luna, even taking them as jokes and their damage towards him as well. Can tank blasts from The Elements of Harmony, which can oneshot the likes of Stygian), possibly far higher (Intangibility and Regeneration make him incredibly difficult to kill)'
Stamina: Limitless
Range: Interstellar (Superior to Celestia), Multiversal+, possibly Low Complex Multiversal with Reality Warping (His powers were stated numerous times to be able to affect all reality. Pinkie Pie with his powers stated she can turn the entire cosmos into a giant party), Interdimensional via portals (He was going to banish Treehugger into another dimension by using a portal)
Standard Equipment: None notable
- Optional Equipment: Exploding Chocolate Milk, Plunderseeds, Invisipaint, Crystal Ball, Grogar's Bewitching Bell
Genius. He is a clever trickster who was able to outsmart and deceive the Mane 6. He has thousands of years of experience, Discord RPG feats for Omniscience, retrocognition, precognition, and law manipulation. His knowledge is stated to have no bounds, and he has been shown to be extremely proficient at using his reality warping powers. He also has advanced Cosmic Awareness that Discord RPG feats for Omniscience, retrocognition, precognition, and law manipulation allows him to see and hear anything across time and space. He has massive knowledge that extends to all realities, is knowledgeable, is physics and even Quantum Physics. Has knowledge that he is a fictional character and is implied to know other series in fiction.
Average due to his mental instability.
Weaknesses:
- Discord's magic can be overcome by certain individuals or objects. He has been defeated and petrified by the Elements of Harmony; Celestia cast a spell on the Elements to keep Discord from taking them again; His magic has been overpowered and taken by an empowered Tirek and Grogar's Bell; His magic had been nullified by Queen Chrysalis' throne and an anti-magic lock put on him in Abyssia.
- He can be so overconfident and cocky that he will not go all-out against enemies, and has a tendency to underestimate them. He has been defeated three times due to this; Initially by Celestia and Luna, later by the Mane Six, and most recently by Tirek. Despite being a master manipulator, he can be tricked himself at some points, such as when he was tricked by Lord Tirek into betraying his friends for freedom, and then tricked by Tirek, Chrysalis and Cozy Glow into thinking that they failed to obtain Grogar's bell.
- If Discord acts or becomes "normal", he starts to fade away from existence as he cannot use his reality warping powers in the process of doing so, but it can be reversed if he experiences something "chaotic". In addition, he can lose his powers if someone compatible with his realm enters it while he is not there and begins to link with it, although this can be reversed by proving himself the more chaotic one. They would have to destroy the spare Discord recently residing in the dimension first before the linking can begin.
