Princess Winter Opera

"Daddy-o can rot in Hell - I'm gonna be my own show!"

- Princess Winter Opera

Princess Winter Opera (her entry here) is a surviving daughter of War Rock, the Magic Stallion, yet is a benevolent and ancient Alicorn goddess despite her parentage.

Appearance
Pre-Ascension, Winter Opera was a mortal Earth Pony mare who resembled her father more than she did her mother. Like War Rock, she has a snow-white pelt and was quite tall thanks to a massive growth spurt in puberty. She's also stunningly beautiful, which made her the target of admiration, jealousy, and hatred among her peers. Unlike War Rock, though, she has an azure-blue mane and tail and azure-green eyes, which are traits inherited from her birth mother, Mint Delight. Her Cutie Mark is an electric violin and bow adorned with blue roses.

Post-Ascension, Winter Opera became an Alicorn goddess with a mane and tail made of rippling Dark Magic energy, and magical wing gradients going from white to azure-blue. In terms of height, she's slightly shorter than Caerulus, who is far older than her; this is because Winter is a ‘prodigy deity’ whose physical and magical growths are abnormally accelerated by divine standards on top of the growth spurt she had as a filly. Her beauty also increased to the point where she could rival Beauty deities like Princess Praline, despite not being one herself.

Winter Opera's true form as an Alicorn contains traits of all mortal Pony tribes, such as the chest gem of a Musical Pony, the aquatic tail and gills of a Sea Pony, and the butterfly wings of a Flutter Pony. Since discovering that she can manifest these traits at will, Winter Opera has taken to appearing with her chest gem, though she alternates between her butterfly wings and Alicorn wings depending on her mood.

In terms of attire, Winter Opera would wear lavish gothic ball gowns during concerts, which she still does after Ascending. Her most prominent outfit is a blue and black ball gown adorned with blue roses, and she wears a ‘crown’ of blue roses. She has been known to wear stylish hats as well.

Tribal/Racial Magics
As an Alicorn goddess, Winter Opera has the combined magic of all mortal Pony tribes, such as Musical Ponies, Sea Ponies, and Flutter Ponies. While she started off as an Earth Pony, she developed a strong inclination for Musical Pony magic, as its tribal music-based spells fit her musical preferences and skills. Being taught by Caerulus helped immensely.

Dark Magic Domain
As a goddess of Dark Magic, Winter Opera is very proficient in using dark magic, which is often geared towards offensive and destructive spells. Like Kúzelník, the Deer god of Sorcery, Winter Opera can use elemental spells like fire, water, earth, and air, but she has a strong preference for ice and lightning magic, both of which she used quite often in her mortal days. Winter Opera's domain also includes things like illusions, necromancy, transformation, ritual magic (which includes summoning rituals), and various curses and hexes. She doesn't use necromancy very often to avoid angering Death deities.

More dangerously, Winter Opera can steal away the life force of her enemies to replenish herself, strip them of their magic indefinitely, and convert them into puppets of her will. What stops Winter Opera from going too far with her magic like War Rock is her morals and the benevolent influence of her friends, so she only reserves her more dangerous spells for the genuinely wicked and unrepentant.

In addition, Winter Opera’s domain grants her some measure of psychic abilities such as telepathy, empathy, psionic telekinesis, and teleportation. However, she is not as powerful as purely psychic deities like Mentálne and Emperor Golden Scepter.

Potential Domain
As a goddess of Potential, Winter Opera has precognitive abilities that show her a person's future potential for both bad and good, as well as what is preventing them from tapping into their inner potential. This also allows her to warn people of what their actions could potentially lead to if they keep doing bad things. Like Luminiferous, her mentor, she can empower people with their future potential, even giving them temporary godhood if that’s what her targets’ choices would lead to.

Defiance Domain
As a goddess of Defiance, Winter Opera shares this domain with Princess Grizelda II. Winter Opera possesses an unbreakable will that allows her to resist mind control and other similar spells, though resisting older and more powerful deities can be a challenge. She has a psychic ability that senses discontent in others and what's causing it, making Winter Opera both charismatic and good at making 'rousing speeches' that encourage people to defy the source of their discontent. But one of her most dangerous abilities is the ability to defy fate itself at will, which makes Doom-related powers and other malicious prophecies effectively useless against her. This ability is thematically tied to how Winter Opera overcame her father’s villainous legacy to start her own.

Other Skills
Winter Opera is an accomplished violinist and singer who was taught by very good people in her life. Music-wise, she is very intelligent and good at improvisation, with the willpower to do it even under stress. In one incident, she created a song entirely from scratch in response to being cruelly pranked in the middle of a concert. Despite not being a Music deity, she does have a great auditory memory, which allows her to remember certain sounds and songs for a long time.

In terms of physical combat, Winter Opera is a 'squishy' wizard who, while a powerful sorceress, is a musician first and foremost. She is resolving this problem by learning how to fight with rapiers.

Weapons/Equipment
Winter Opera wields a divine blue 'magitek' violin named Sfida, which serves as a conduit for many of her spells. By playing music with Sfida, she can weave complicated spells that she could not by herself.

She also has been learning to fight with rapiers to make up for her lack of physical combat.
