The Six Fanarts meme, but the characters are how they are in my New Lunar Millenium AU!

> What can be said about Captain Lightning Dust that hasn't been said already? Over many years in the Imperial Lunar Air Force, she built a reputation for herself as a reckless, determined, yet undeniably skilled bomber pilot, eventually leading the bomber crew in the fateful Operation Maginus, overseeing the deployment of one of the most destructive weapons ever built by sentient life…

> Muffins "Derpy" Hooves was deemed unfit for military duties upon being called up for service and recieving a mental examination, so she was moved around the various corporations and ministries of the Lunar government until she found something that worked. While finding limited success as a mailpony, she would find her true calling as the Empress's personal chef!

> A dropout of Celestia's School for Gifted Unicorns, Sunburst Flare found himself with little to aspire for before the Lunar Rebellion, but the new regime had plans for ponies like him. Former students of Celestia's schools were given generous job offers by the Lunar state, with Sunburst himself taking one of these offers up and finding himself working for the Imperial Institute of Arcane Sciences as a researcher and magic practitioner. His name aroused suspicion amongst Lunarist colleagues, but he knew to keep his head down and not say or do anything that would cause him any trouble.

> During the Lunar-Crystal War, Sombra's officers believed that they could simply throw a wall of brainwashed bodies at whatever risked bringing them harm, a terrifying tactic used to brutal effect. However, at the heart of this strategy lay a critical weakness: Without their officers to command them, Sombra's soldiers would not fight. Adapting to this situation, the Imperial Lunar Military began to train legions of elite Equestrian snipers. Silent, invisible, precise, and the scourge of Sombra's officer corps. The deadliest and most feared of these snipers was a quiet, unassuming conscript named Marble Pie. After killing a team of 8 counter-snipers and their spotters sent specifically to hunt her, in a rocky valley, she would earn the name "The Spectre of Death Gorge".

> Zecora, Guardian of the Everfree. The decision to renovate the old Castle of the Two Sisters, located right in the midst of the mysterious Everfree forest presented many troubling, yet hardly unexpected, challenges for the Lunar government. While many in the Lunar regime and military wanted to preserve the Everfree due to its unique and connection to thestral heritage, other much louder voices instead sought to raze it to the ground with overwhelming force. If the Everfree were to survive, it would need an advocate, and it would find one in Zecora the Zebra. Hesitantly but with great determination, she did everything in her power to act as an arbiter of peace between ponies and monsters, ensuring that ponies would have safe passage through certain parts of the woods as long as the wider forest was unmolested by Lunar forces. Through her tireless efforts, a fragile, precarious peace is barely maintained, but a peace nonetheless.

> How does a fiercely determined Celestial Loyalist end up as a Captain within the Imperial Lunar Night Guard? Rainbow Dash is and always will be loyal to Equestria, but in this bizarre new world where the Equestria she once knew is gone, where can her loyalties be said to lie?
