Neither Unicorn Nor Pegasus, Alicorns Appear To Have Traits From Both Species, But Are So Much More Beyond

A painting of an ethereal, long-limbed Princess Celestia who fills the entire sky. Mountains don't even reach her ankles. The sky is made of her hair, in waves of cerulean accented with purple and orange clouds. She has two pairs of wings, with the sun held between them.

A portrait of princess celestia as a goddess, with white glowing eyes, mane that turns into clouds, white fur with gold accents. Instead of ears, Celestia has long, elegant pointed wings resembling those of a tern.

Princess Luna as a divine alicorn, casting the entirety of ponyville under the shadow of her giant, umbrella-like wings. Her pose and wings look much like a black heron. Within the darkness cast by her wings, stars glimmer and twinkle

Goddess Luna as a portrait. Her curved horn and nose are tipped in silver, while her dark, night-sky fur is wreathed in blue sparkling smoke. She has wings on her head in place of ears, and they are low-set and folded gracefully. Her eyes are closed, with iridescent white eyelashes gently dropping glittering stars as tears.

Neither unicorn nor pegasus, Alicorns appear to have traits from both species, but are so much more beyond that.

The first alicorns are known as The Two Sisters, a pair of unicorns with magic so potent, they changed the face of the sky forever. After growing wings, the young alicorns were called princesses and treated like royalty, thanked for their gift of the sun and moon. But as time went on, it became clear that these were not simply horses with extra features, but something else entirely.

When mature, alicorns are massive deities that stretch across the sky, ferrying the sun and moon to all corners of the world, leaving magic and dreams in their wake.

Being larger than the tallest mountains, goddesses generally don't interact with ponies on an individual basis. When they do, it is a terrifying honor; one that will alter the course of your life forever. Listen to the Sun speaking into your mind, and pray you are still the same pony when she is done.

just finished s8e6, honestly it was just so fun. one of my favorites of this season so far. I love Garth’s character so much, he’s such a sweetie. and now i’m onto episode 7 which obviously i like because. Crowley. Any episode i get to see him be a wittily sarcastic asshole is a good episode.
