Discordant Aria
"You an' me together? We're one heckuva pair!"
"Chaos is the natural order a' things, pal. And I'm gonna make sure it's here to stay."


The Equestrian Wasteland is home to many different creatures, all of them strange in their own ways. But very few of them can be considered to be as anarchistic as Discordant Aria, one who takes such pride in his erratic nature to the point of being self-described as "punk rock incarnate." A former resident of Nightmare Castle, one day his mother picked up the young bat pony and took off, tired of hiding in an over-glorified hole while a slew of vile issues ran throughout their populace. Ever since then, the two traveled all across the ruined wastes, never staying in any place for too long, always drifting from settlement to settlement. Even when his mother vanished, Aria kept this tradition of sorts even as a young colt. Often using his age to squeeze pity out of settlers or get free rides from passing caravans, he was just as aimless as ever. But he came across his region's sect of the Followers of the Apocalypse by mere chance; it was here where Aria would find a new family of sorts. The Followers took him in, acting as both guardians and teachers, giving the bat an environment to sate his endless craving for knowledge while also teaching him right from wrong, looking out for him, all because it was the right thing to do. For most of his life, this group and their goals were all that mattered to him. Helping other ponies, soothing wounds, even saving lives, all this fulfilled a desire to make a positive influence on the world around him.

However, not all good things last forever. In this case, the very group he had come to love would tear itself apart. Split in two by differing radicals, tensions within the Followers came to a massive head when a band of raiders attacked their base of operations. The corrupt turned on their former allies, while those who stuck to their guns faced off against those who they had worked with for years. Amidst the chaos, Aria ran, uncaring wherever he ended up so long as it didn't lead to him becoming a corpse. The wandering once again became his natural way of life, aimless in nature, uncaring about what happened to anypony else so long as he could scrape by another day. Stealing from the unaware became a new bad habit, while his manipulative steak grew even more.

In his young adult years, Aria had almost come to terms with this life. Maybe even enjoyed it, in a sense, the lack of direction just acting as an excuse to wander around as a vagabond. But events began to take their courses, and soon enough, the wandering bat pony finally found purpose as he was thrust into a grand adventure. Bound to an old world spirit of chaos, Aria began to find his new way in this world. Not as another face in the crowd, but as a fierce bonfire that would burn away oppression in its numerous forms. With this newfound freedom came a sort of wildness, but accompanying it was a desire to preserve this way of life. Not just for himself, but everyone else. Waging a massive war against his region's factions on top of a mysterious plague infecting the denizens of his home, Aria plays himself off as a simple anarchist, his loud mouth and invincible-seeming attitude concealing a golden heart alongside a plethora of doubts. Despite his inclination towards utter chaos and obscene mannerisms, this bat pony is more than his outward traits let on, full of mostly good intentions skewed by a desire to see whatever opposes him crumble among other less than ideal traits. And though he seems unbothered by flying solo, his desperation to make friends might just lead him to form unusual bonds with any who cross his path...

Freaks to the front!
Before we get into the thick of, well, anything...apologies for your misfortune in coming across the most cringy and trash individual on the internet--no, the MULTIVERSE--and beyond. But hey, if you're interested in being friends, allow me to be like all the other cool and hip folk and make this custom info box a more in-depth analysis of the dude behind the pony profile pic (AKA yours truly)!


General Stuff
▪︎ Just your intensely gay relapsed brony re-embracing the fandom since Shining Armor makes my knees weak there is, like, a LOT of individuality and creativity in the community. It's staggering! Besides, the show and fandom hold a special place in my heart.

▪︎ [REDACTED] years old, born on July 28th. Don't worry, I'm a legal adult. Not like you need to know this, but may as well say it to clear the air preemptively.

▪︎Shy, ungodly socially inept, and reserved, but have a LOT of passions involving nerdy nonsense that interests me (mostly video games). ...this...means that I never send the first message, so sorry in advance! Though, the interests and hobbies of others fascinates me to no end. Basically crippling social anxiety incarnate.

▪︎ Recently returned PC player! ...uh, laptop player. Same difference, really. It's taken me 3 or so years, but hey, better late than never again, right?

▪︎ Avid roleplayer. Always down to do the RP thing since it is a great way to combat writer's block and get ideas. Plus, it's fun. So sue me.
- Wonder why my entire main profile gimmick or whatever the word may be is a roleplaying thing? I like being a character rather than my own self. Escapism is a magical thing. Plus, an OC name is SO much cooler than any online alias I could come up with...

▪︎Intense support main. WAAAAAAY too many hours in TF2 as Medic, Combat Medic is my main in Killing Floor and Killing Floor 2, always try to be a solid medic-ish foundation for any Payday 2 teams, and every Dark Souls build of mine just has to include team healing/buffs.

▪︎Self-confidence issues often lead to me making self-deprecating jokes to ease potential tension. It isn't an attention thing, it's just for the bit-

▪︎ Interested in foreign languages, but currently lacking the drive to invest time into learning them. Used to know Japanese and, because of that, I now fade into an accent in the rare times I speak , but am very intrigued in French, German, Brazilian Portuguese, and Icelandic.

▪︎ Absolute horror fanatic. If there's one thing I enjoy more than sleep, it is being spooked, especially when it comes to the slow burn types. Being terrified is fun!

▪︎ Usually burying myself in some sort of study or another if I'm not actively playing games or working.

▪︎ More or less selectively mute, meaning...uh, I don't really do voice comms unless absolutely forced to.

▪︎ Former tabletop RPG fanatic, kinda lost the passion when I lost people to play it with. ...might have to remedy that by buying the Dark Souls board game.

▪︎ Casual Fallout Equestria enjoyer. And fanfiction writer, too!

▪︎ Punk rocker in the making.

▪︎ Want to find me on Discord? Just ask me in either Steam DMs or just my profile! I'd put it for all to see if there was, like, any confidence in it working as intended.

▪︎ The most devoted King Sombra lover, like, ever. Seriously. He's soooo handsome, and that voice just makes me melt. The things I'd let him do to me-

▪︎ Coincidentally, also the biggest Shining Armor lover as well. To...uh...very slightly unhealthy degrees. If he wasn't married, I'd have locked him down AGES ago.

▪︎ The gayest Queen Chrysalis enjoyer to walk this earth. Seriously, she might be a lady, but...damn.



▪︎ Note: please don't mind the low Steam account level thingy. At the moment, I don't have the means or the willpower to collect cards and whatnot to bolster it.





Friend Stuff and Things(TM)
Honestly, I...don't really have much of these, as I am in DESPERATE need of friends. Think of these less of requirements and more like guidelines or, like, simple requests that you don't have to follow exactly?

-First and foremost, I am IN NO WAY really 100% interested in online relationships. Please don't expect me to fall head over heels over the course of a few days, it isn't gonna work. Not really a fan of being objectified to that sort of degree.

-None of my inventory is for sale. Sorry, traders! Everything has sentimental value.

-If you have time, please leave a message saying why you wanna add me (i.e. just to talk, RP, make friends, or whatever else)! I'm super shy and can't really...figure out that kinda stuff and it stresses me out for ZERO reason. Again, not a requirement! It'd just be nice to know that you're not just some friend collector or scummy trader type.

-If something happens between us, PLEASE don't try to start things with my other friends. We can always try to resolve things!

-My responses may be a little slow from time to time, either because I'm super sleepy or Steam rarely notifies me when I have a notification. Please don't take it personally!

-If I don't answer your message and I APPEAR Online/Away, it's probably because I'm off tab and not looking at Steam. Again, please don't think this is me ignoring you or anything, I'll do my best to respond when around and able!





And again, if you want to know why I've got an 9 Years of Service badge but am relatively low level, well, it's kind of a paradox to buy games that a shoddy laptop can barely run, right?



Favorite Stuff!~
Game Series
The World Ends With You

Literally the entirety of the Dark Souls/Soulsborne series, with Demon Souls and Three being closer to the top. Two is pretty good from an atmosphere standpoint, but uuuugh DS1 is such a slog-

Dark Cloud

No More Heroes

Risk of Rain 2 (proud Bandit and Acirid main)

Left 4 Dead

Dead By Daylight up until the Resident Evil chapter.

Sonic 2, Sonic Adventure 2, Sonic Mega Collection, and Sonic Heroes

Borderlands 2 and Pre-Sequel


Bands/Musical Taste
It's a little embarrassing, but...I'm either into underground stuff, metal, or EDM. Nice to know being cringe doesn't JUST affect my personality-
...oh, and ska. Aaaaaand lots and lots of punk.

Swiftheart's theme
Discordant Aria's theme




Beast in Black - Heart of Steel

Battle Beast - Band of the Hawk

Temperence - The Last Hope in A World Of Hopes

Rika Zaraï - Ami

Literally ANYTHING by Maximum the Hormone. Seriously. The entire Bu-ikikaseu!! album and "F" are personal favorites, though.

Paddy and the Rats - The Way We Wanna Go

Bloodsucking Zombies from Outer Space - Night Flier

BONSAI KITTEN - Take It Easy But Take It

Re-Con - Like A Rainbow

Death By Horse - Burning the Witches

Akira Yamaoka - I Need Love

Mustard Plug - Mister Smiley

The Interrupters - Let 'Em Go

Go Betty Go - Laugh Again

Face to Face - Disconnected

Flogging Molly - Drunken Lullabies

Shonen Knife - Riding on the Rocket

Anything that's pre-Jerry Only era of the Misfits. Modern Misfits isn't TOTALLY abysmal, but...definitely more same-y sounding than the earlier years.

EVERY single song from Zombina and the Skeletones. I'd literally sell my organs on the street to get their stuff on vinyl.

The Blue Hearts - Owarenai Uta

Anarchy - Not Satisfied

i've got something cool to show you, add me and we can talk
Discordant Aria 8 May @ 9:51pm 
Dunno what the deal is with these bots, they're legit the only form of Steam notifs I get as of late LMAO

Do I have to sell my body to buy games to get them to buzz off, or do I just have to be a hyperactive social butterfly and pretend to NOT be some introverted moron so they're not interested?
