Queen Chrysalis



"Now that Queen Chrysalis is freed from being petrified into a stone (along with Lord Tirek and Cozy Glow) after the final battle for harmony ended when the Mane Six and the rest of Equestria and its allies were victorious back then, just before Twilight Sparkle would be coronated real soon, it seems that she wanted to bring back the Changelings' old ways before Thorax was metamorphosed. Don't you mean the 'pre-metamorphosis days?' Well, that won't be nice if that was back to these days for the Changelings I suppose."

--Su Ji-Hoon, Chrysalis Returns

Queen Chrysalis is a female changeling and the main antagonist of the season two finale, the season six finale, the IDW comics'first story arc, Budge Studios' mobile game Harmony Quest, and one of the main antagonists of the season nine finale. She is the queen of the changelings and a shapeshifter who appears as Princess Cadance in order to hypnotize her fiancé Shining Armor, invade Canterlot, and eventually take over Equestria.

In the season six finale, Chrysalis is dethroned from her position as changeling queen. In the season nine premiere, she, along with Lord Tirek and Cozy Glow, joins forces with Grogar to defeat the Mane Six and conquer Equestria. She is defeated by the Mane Six and their allies in the season nine finale, and turned to stone along with Tirek and Cozy

In When the Cold Breeze Blows Away, she would be free from being a statue, thanks to the Belkan Grey Men's magic, and then they would gather Chrysalis' loyal Changelings to plot an overthrow of Thorax and bring themselves back to their old times with a new faction called the Black Changelings.
