Discord is a fictional character who appears in the fourth incarnation of Hasbro's My Little Pony toyline and media franchise, beginning with My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic (2010–2019). He first appears as the main antagonist of the second season premiere before becoming a recurring character throughout the rest of the series. He is voiced by John de Lancie.
Discord is depicted as a powerful and mischievous anthropomorphic draconequus who embodies chaos and disharmony. As the Spirit of Chaos, he possesses reality-warping abilities and delights in creating disorder and confusion. Initially introduced as a malevolent force who once ruled Equestria through chaos before being defeated and turned to stone by Princess Celestia and Princess Luna, he is later reformed through the friendship and kindness of Fluttershy, becoming one of her closest friends and an unlikely ally to the Mane Six. His character arc explores themes of redemption, the value of friendship, and the balance between order and chaos.
