Everfree Forest



The Everfree Forest is a mysterious dark forest and a location in the show My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic. This dank and eerie wilderness is filled with many evil monsters.

History
The Everfree Forest was introduced in the second episode of the first season when Twilight Sparkle reads a history book about the Elements of Harmony and when the main characters have to go into the Everfree Forest to retrieve the elements in order to stop Nightmare Moon.

The inhabitants of the Everfree Forest seeks to expand and take over Equestria. It is said a "mysterious foe" is behind these events who threatens to destroy everything. At the moment it is unclear whether the mysterious foe is the spirit of the Everfree Forest, a completely separate creature controlling it, or the Everfree Forest itself. It is revealed that the "mysterious foe" is Discord who planted seeds that grown into the living vines before he was first imprisoned.

Creatures
There are many monsters lurking within the Everfree Forest and many of them are Hostile Species and are a threat to ponies and most other peaceful Animals and Creatures. Most of the creatures found on it are beasts of myth and legend, some belong to true myths found in real life, while others, such as the timberwolves, are completely original.
