Princess Luna was once Nightmare Moon, a terrifying image of spite forged from sadness and jealousy. When the Elements of Harmony were tapped into by six brave ponies, led by the booksmart Twilight Sparkle, Nightmare Moon was vanquished, and Princess Luna was liberated of her anguish at long last, allowed to stand by her elder sister, Princess Celestia, and bring in Equestria's tranquil night once again. But the tale of Nightmare Moon does not end there...
When Luna was released from her bonds of acrimony, her malevolent shell was shattered, sending the armor she bore into fragments that became nothing but remnants of a time best forgotten. Someone thought otherwise however, and unbeknownst to all, there was more to that armor than simple protection.
A mysterious being has taken the mantle of Nightmare Moon, reforged the pieces of the past, and unleashed a consuming shadow of what was once Princess Luna's unquenchable bitterness. It moves unseen through the populous now, a corrupting influence that seeks to unearth the most despicable and violent of notions from any creature it can, delivering vast power and glory in exchange for abandoning morals and integrity. Like a virus it spreads, and anypony is privy to it's influence.
Who is this mysterious figure who lurks in the shadows, claiming the residual powers of Nightmare Moon for themselves? And what of this mental plague afflicting Equestria, bringing the worst out in everypony for sheer desire and strength?
During the Lunar Eclipse, anypony can be the villain. Who will you trust?
