They would have freed themselves from the shackles of fate and reached a new level of wisdom.
Or sit in their basement browsing /mlh/ all day.

I know that nobody left on /mlp/ has ever watched S1 but this guy and his blank flank was talked about quite a bit back in the day.

>>30918237
Not canon

>>30918224
If you sit in your basement and watch mlh all day would you get a related cutie mark? Maybe like the kind retarded writers keep giving OCs? Shit like guns, computers, vehicles, etc.

>tfw no Kreia poner to enlighten others beyond the veil of living under the control of the echoes of an imposed destiny

You think we'll get an episode of the CMC helping an adult pony find their cutie mark one day?

Aside from Troubleshoes understanding his.

Is the Dark Side full of fedora-tippers or something?

>>30918283
I feel like an episode like that would be treading along the lines of "unemployment" which was already tackled with Flutter Brutter. Having the episode end with said pony only getting their cutie mark with the intervention of 3 fillies after years of not getting one seems a bit contrived. The show likes to be contrived sometimes so I can see them doing that.

Alternatively, they don't WANT a cutie mark, which would be even harder to write. I dunno.

>unemployment
Not really. The cutie mark is a special talent, not necessarily rooted in work. Sure you can try to find work in what you enjoy, but that's not always the case.

There could be a pony who has a talent for solving riddles but works as a waiter because the market for their talent is near nonexistent.

>I am enlightened by my own self-importance
No, it's always been more close-minded.

>"Propelled by fear or hatred, even a Jedi can pass beyond the constraints of the Order’s teachings and discover power of a more profound sort. But no Jedi who arrives at that place, who has risen above his or her allegiance to peace and justice, who kills in anger or out of desire, can lay real claim to the dark side of the Force. Their attempts to convince themselves that they fell to the dark side, or that the dark side compelled their actions, are nothing more than pitiful rationalizations. That is why the Sith embrace the dark from the start, focusing on the acquisition of power. We make no excuses. The actions of a Sith begin from the self and flow outward. We stalk the Force like hunters, rather than surrender like prey to its enigmatic whims."
-Darth Plagueis

I think it would be closer to compare them to satanists than atheists. They believe, but they actively stand against the natural force. Power is not simply in believing yourself to be above it all, but actively crushing everything beneath your heel.

but kreia isn't dark side, she wanted to end the force

>>30918541
>she wanted to end the force
I never played kotor, but please tell me how she planned to go about ending a natural energy?

Do you mean end the orders that embraced extreme ideologies surrounding it?

*SPOILERS*

Kreia used to be a Jedi historian but was exiled by the council because the knowledge of the Jedi was limited, she then became a sith out of sheer hunger for knowledge and may have trained some of the worst sith lords yet, who betrayed her. She's come to understand that both their teaching are faulty and that the force is a cancer on the universe.
She actually can physically cut things from the force, which kills them instantly,(she kills the entire jedi council in an instant) the character you play was supposedly cut from the force as well but survived, that's why she's interested in you, to find a way to end the force without killing everything in existence.(Which she could have done)

>>30918584
Oh I should mention the way to do it is to create a "scar" in the force, you do this by blowing up a planet full of life for example,(Think Death Star) and if the scar is big enough Kreia can use it to cut everything from the force.

>>30918584
Okay, so shitty comparisons, but similar to Infamous and Legend of Korra? Not so much getting rid of the force as stripping people of their connection to it.

The problem with that is finding a natural way to enact it for generations to come under a well-governed mandate. What probably would happen like most fictional tropes is that she'd have created a single lineage of force-users with the ability to sever others from the force, but they would ultimately fall to their own hubris and abuse of powers. Every asshole order gets a rebellious enemy.

>>30918602
But is she bottling up the force for good, or just cutting everyone from it at that moment? How far is her reach and what's to stop force-sensitives from born after the act? Or long after she's dead and the natural forces heal?

>>30918610
We don't EXACTLY know how it works, but from what she says(And you have no reason to doubt her) she actually can end the force forever. The problem is that it will kill everything.
