| “ | Make sense? Oh, what fun is there in making sense? | „ |
| ~ Discord's famous phrase. |
Discord is a major character in My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic. He is one of Twilight Sparkle's best friends.
He uses less contractions in his vocabulary oftentimes, giving him a somewhat sophisticated, charismatic, archaic tone to his status as a "chaos god".
He was voiced by John de Lancie.

What Makes Him Inconsistent?[]
- Infamously sided with Tirek in the season four finale despite Fluttershy managed to redeem him, proving he's not incorruptible, though he redeems himself again after Twilight saved him and shows remorse over his actions.
- Even the Mane Six weren't amused by his betrayal and he nearly lose their confidence, and Shining Armor had a hard time to finally forgive him for said act.
- He can be on & off, as he can be anti-heroic and heroic from time to time, this was evidenced when he joined Tirek's side in the season four finale.
- He is too mischievous to qualify as both PG or NPG.
- During his reign of terror, he caused chaos throughout Equestria and taking delight of watching others suffering in despair and misery. He even flooded the Sweet Apple Acres then turned it into an ice rink before his redemption. Despite this, he goes back into causing chaos when he terrorized the School of Friendship and bring the apples back to life which they terrorized Ponyville and merged themselves into a giant apple monster.
- Occasionally tricks Twilight and the others into doing something too ridiculous, including taking advantage of Fluttershy's kindness so he could be free to cause chaos whatever he wants, secretly planting Plunderseeds underground before his first defeat to teach her a lesson about being a proper leader, tricking both her and Cadance into taking care of him by faking his illness to make sure if she's still his friend, making her friends hanging out with him and excluding her from activities through three-day weekend to teach her a lesson, putting Twilight on pressure so she could send Starlight to his realm so they could be roommates, tricking her and the others into going on a fake friendship mission just to terrorize the School of Friendship and disguised himself as Grogar to create a fake threat to Equestria so she and her friends could defeat the villains and boost up her confidence which backfired.
- Can be very disobedient and ignorant when he betrayed Fluttershy by turning Sweet Apple Acres into an ice rink despite she promised, refusing to believe over Fluttershy's denounces their friendship and proudly boasting that no one tells him what to do before he realizes the error of his ways, refusing to help Twilight and her friends due to their accusation on him and ignoring Spike and Big Mac's insist of getting back to play Ogres & Oubliettes when forcing them to do their evening in his own way.
- He can be too arrogant and selfish, proudly boasting about himself, sometimes looking down on others, refused to admit his feelings either and wanting to make anything in his own way against others' wishes.
- There are moments where he can be too jerkish towards others, as shown when he refused to help the Mane Six with the missing of the two princesses and the Plunderseeds problem for accusing him and argued with Trixie during their mission on saving their friends from the Changelings.
- He can easily lose his temper, as shown when he heard that Fluttershy invited Tree Hugger to the Grand Galloping Gala over him, got fed up with Spike and Big Mac's playful teasing when they were playing Ogres & Oubliettes and furiously discovered that Fluttershy has been kidnapped by the changelings.
- He can be very jealous, as shown when he thought that Fluttershy invite Tree Hugger for a Grand Galloping Gala instead of him and Starlight was being chosen as a temporary headmare of the School of Friendship.
- He can be a control freak when he forced Spike and Big Mac to do their evening activities in his own way.
- Along with Celestia and Luna, he has no issue of turning Cozy Glow, a child, into stone, but unlike them he clearly showed sadistic enjoyment in doing so. Despite this, they only make sure that she, Chrysalis and Tirek won't ever causing harm throughout Equestria again.
- He can be an extremist, as shown in the second issue of the 2022 My Little Pony comics that he's revealed to be the one who stole the Pegasus Crystal in order to keep magic from returning to Equestria. After ponies turned their magic on each other many years prior, he believes that magic is the source of conflict and division, and the society without magic would be more peaceful. This is the reason why he wanted to destroy the Unity Crystals so the Equestria will remained magic-less, leading to a conflict between him and Sunny, along with her friends.
- This act is also very disrespectful towards the Mane 6's legacy, since they were the ones who created the Unity Crystals in the first place, and it wouldn't have been something they wanted to happen.
- In a flashback from Issue #6, the separation of the pony races causing him to descend into madness and believing that magic could destroy Equestria, leaving Fluttershy to record a message on crystal which is found by Mane Five years later.
- However, he later redeems himself from his extremistic ways after remorsefully watching Fluttershy's video message and gave back the Pegasi Crystal to Sunny and her friends.
