TUMBLR: heilos.tumblr.com/post/6881340…


Had this idea bouncing in my head over the holiday break and it was too much fun not to draw it. 



Quick back-story I threw together:

A short time after the Tree of Harmony regained the Elements of Harmony, it appeared to show a higher state of sentience due to the personalities the previous bearers imprinted on each individual element along with the magic of friendship. No longer content with being rooted in one place in the middle of the Everfree Forest, the tree used the elements to craft itself a new body based on the last living beings who used them, aka the mane 6, and took on the form of a very large and elegant unicorn with a custom crown, similar to twilight's, that now holds all six elements. Going only by the name Harmony, she wanders the deepest parts of the Everfree Forest, trying to make sense of this new body and consciousness while continuing to maintain all that grows in the forest.


Harmony is a kind soul who is the living embodiment of balance. Just being in her presence brings a feeling of calm and safety to all who approach her. She speaks with grace and soft tones, having an ever so subtle echo to her words. She rarely ever raises her voice even when angry unless provoked in dire circumstances.
 


EDIT:

Since I had some question about her design, I'll say that she's based more off a traditional unicorn with cloven hooves, more fluff, slightly longer tail ect. They're a very beautiful type of unicorn. It's also why I decided against making her an alicorn since I feel the Tree of harmony is far older then alicorns and doing something with more traditional roots felt right.

Heilos In reply to LunaNyxArt [2015-05-12 08:06:08 +0000 UTC]

For the most part yes. She can leave the forest, but not without splitting her power in half in order to maintain the current state of everfree so it doesn't grow out of control. c:

Aww hey it's the thought that counts and I bet you did a good job anyway. I know she's a bit complicated which is why I plan to smooth out her design once I finally get around to making a ref sheet. c:

I didn't even get to drawing her body, I was stuck at the head for 15 minutes before I gave up XD I actually may have better luck if I drew up a human version of Harmony.

Hmmm, the back of her main sticking out in the jaggad fashion reminds me of Ms. Frizzle from the Magic School Bus series. Huh, my mind's weird

I like how her body and neck is long and slender like a tree. I also admire how her crown is crested with all the elements of harmony.

It's the MLP version of Thanos! We're doomed!

Just kidding.

I suppose if the neck was a bit longer relative to the legs...the implication could be that she was a kirin, or a Chinese unicorn.

 I understand why she is a Unicorn rather than an Alicorn to signify her great power. It's because she's rooted to the ground!

Hey, I'm writing a fimfic that takes place in the past in the point of view of my OC. It explains the backstories of to villains (including a villain my friend and I made up), the princesses, and even the elements of harmoney themselves. Of course this story is purely what my friend and I think most-likely happened... along with a few theories of other fans. Well, what I want to ask you is if we could possibly use your gorgeous character here. I read the story and thought that we would probably reference the tree as "she" or "her" by some of the main characters.

She looks a lot like that Angel Whippet from All Dogs Go to Heaven, except as a pony. What was her name? Annabelle?

Maybe it's just me.
