MLP Review of the Alicorn Amulet.

Hey Guys, Princessprt here and can you guess what we are doing today? Simple we`re doing a My little pony review but guess what. Its actually not over a episode its over the object known as the Alicorn Amulet. So yeah welcome a My little pony Review of the Alicorn amulet, discussing how it works, how it doesnt and whether or not it makes sense… Lets start off with what is the Alicorn Amulet. The Alicorn Amulet grants its breaer untold power but at the cost of corruption. Its also the shape of a red and black alicorn. Anyway the amulet can only be taken off by the brearer themselves. Its limits include Duplicating A Pony, Making a Pony Play 10 Instruments at once, or Changing a Pony`s gender. Also other spells that seem impossible.

Already seeing some points so let me explain how this will work. We`ll be spiltting this up into sections. First being How does it work, Then Why Does work, followed by a Will we see this again, and then a rating it based on how likely it would destroy the world? Understand. Well then lets begin with how this will work.

The Alicorn amulet works by giving said ponies a boost in their magic abilities but also corrupting their minds. Sounds like a DnD quest plot. Anyway the first question i have is does this thing tap into the magic into the surrounding areas, the barer, or itself. This question is mostly towards the fact that while the alicorn amulet was being used the area the user was in started to turn grayish. Then again i doubt this because well this would probably dry up pretty quickly and would have to keep moving. If its the user then its concerning and it makes more sense. It makes sense because of well how it seems to work. For example it could have been feeding on and into her hatred of twilight because of what happened as an after effect. Which also could explain some things about trixie but i am be wrong. Anyway then if its from the amulet it self it sort of makes sense. Hmm starting to get a theory formed in my head about how it works...which i `ll say later. Anyway so lets move onto the rules. The rules of it cant duplicate a pony, make a pony play 10 instruments at once, change a pony`s gender, or other impossible spells. I have to question about whether or not this is the actual case. Well in its wiki page and from the episode it was in, it cant cast spells that would be impossible. So lets start with the points i wanted to express earlier. Queen chrysalis proved duplicating ponies was possible, pinkie proved that playing 10 instruments at once is possible, and medicine about changing gender. I mean common if you can attach 2 full functioning wings to a unicorn and she is able to use them without a problem aside from the fact of needing to be taught how to fly., you can changing genders. So why am i bringing this up its Theory time.

Here`s my Theory on how this works. The Alicorn Amulet is granted a pretty powerful piece. Thing is though its power is represented on the enviornment and the pony. From what i can see the Alicorn amulet acts as a magic booster but in turn slowly corrupts the person and the area around them. The Amulet takes basically the elements of friendship out of the pony and converts it into magic. The limits of what one can do is based on mentality and the Pony`s own magic abilities. Trixie was not the most skilled unicorn. So that being said its Danger Ratings would depend on the pony or person themselves. Cause so far we have only seen it being used trixie think of what would happen if the other Races in the my little pony verse got a hold of it and used it. This goes with the theory that everything has some sort of magic. So that being said the Alicorn amulet works as a Magic booster/converter that converts the ponies own elements of friendship and the elements of friendship from the envoirnement then procceeds to turn it into magic energy that can be used to cast up the the user`s level of magic expertise and their own metality. In Theory anything and everything can be done with magic you just need to figure out how.

Now why does it work. Well there are several creatures that feed on the opposite of the elements of harmony not only that but several wizards that dont know how it works but want its power. Whose to say that a wizard blinded by one of these creatures that feed on hatred and all that is against friendship and/or harmony figured out how to create this just to get food. Think about it. There have been comic posts and episodes where we run into creatures who feed on the opposite, then feed back into the create more food. These creatures are invasive and in the lands of equestria have proven to be smart enough to try and get food by planting hatred so they can reap what they sow. To make it add up in the theory above lets explain it and then rate it.
-

In the Total theory, a Creature that feeds on hatred reaps what they sow into ponies to produce more food for themselves. One day they could have come across a powerful creature of harmony and manpulated it into creating the amulet or even turning said creature into the amulet. This amulet takes the powers of the elements of harmony out of the user and the surrounding area causing chaos and creating seeds that will be reaped and sowen for food for the creature. This amulet takes the power and gives the user a magical boost from it but only as far as the creatures knowledge and mentality of what is possible and what isnt possible. So how do we rate this? I say pretty high and a range from 70-95% chance of destroying it. Orginally i thought it would be 60 maybe 50 to 70% but after thinking about it, its a bit higher. This amulet causes chaos and problems where ever the user goes so long as they use magic. This amulet corrupts the user i assume at different paces depending on the creature itself, causing the user the use more magic. I have to say Equestria did get lucky that trixie held it. She was so caught up in just being selfish and wanting to cause ponyville to pay for what happened, also because of her magic skill and range of knowledge. Also chance of it coming back is high because something someone thought of like that. Its probably going to become a season finale  or movie plot. Anyway guys`ll see yall later.
