TyrannusRex

I think Ocellus is adorable, and I'm currently a biology major in college, so I couldn't resist the studious little lovebug cuddling a bio textbook. I found it on FimFiction, serving as the cover image of a... less than savory story (which I did not read!) ...I'm afraid to find the full version of this image...

I'm looking for an easy, preferably cheap way to get specific blind bag minis online. I've seen individual ones go on eBay for up to $100 (Sweet Celestia, Chrysalis, you're breaking the bank 0_0; .) I'd love to know if there's an easier way to find everypony's favorite characters for those, such as me, on a budget (a college budget at that...)

Yeah, it was a discussion/roleplay *somewhere*, my memory's just not serving where at the moment. They referred to it as the "War of Night", and I'm like "Well, YOU get Awesome Name Points(TM)".

So, pretty straightforward question: how long did the Royal Sisters clash before Nightmare was banished to the moon? I was always under the impression their battle lasted for a single night, the night Luna turned, before Celestia, unable to turn her back, used the Elements to banish her. But I've heard it referred to as a "war" in some places, which makes me wonder if it was a more drawn-out conflict, almost a civil war of sorts... whether or not it's true, it's an interesting concept. So am I right in assuming the one-night battle? Am I wrong? Just crazy (probably so, but still)? Or is there no straight answer in any canon?

Thanks! And maybe, once I have some art I feel is worth sharing! XD

Well, here I am. The story of how I joined the herd is a long and complicated one, but all that matters is I'm here now. You all can call me Tyrannus or some other variation on my screenname. I do have a ponysona or two, which I'll introduce, probably, eventually. Paleontology is a passion of mine, along with video games, sci-fi/fantasy, writing/drawing, and overall just being creative; I also study Latin from time to time, linguistics being a guilty pleasure of mine. And now, I guess, ponies.
