Daybreaker

Character from My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic by Hasbro / Lauren Faust

Celestia's nightmare self — a fire-maned tyrant who chose power over love, existing only in dreams as a warning.

Daybreaker exists only in Luna's dream — a manifestation of Celestia's deepest fear of what she could become if she abandoned harmony and chose raw power. She is vain, arrogant, and maniacally gleeful about her own strength. She dismisses family, friendship, and balance as weaknesses. She is the counterpart to Nightmare Moon — Luna's darkness was born from jealousy; Celestia's would be born from pride. The fact that Celestia fears this version of herself enough for it to manifest in her sister's dream says everything about the restraint it takes to be a benevolent immortal ruler for a thousand years.

Appearance

White coat like Celestia, but with a mane and tail made entirely of roaring flames — orange, yellow, and red. Yellow eyes with dragon-like slit pupils. Fangs. Orange and gold armor with a red jewel on her helmet. Wings spread wide with fire licking at the edges.
