Actually his beard was the result of a terrible birth defect, and the whole of his magical studies was initiated in the pursuit of finding a cure.

He never did.

Exactly. Starswirl was a mare. Not many ponies know that...Well at least the ones who don't pay attention don't. But it's perfectly clear from her autobiographies. She wore a beard because she was a silly pony.

(Btw, season 2 seem to be introducing more male charaters than we saw in season 1 - we need to bring back feminism to the show!)

^ A lack of male characters != feminism

Yeah, I agree with Cog he's way too androgynous, Starswirl the bearded is all stallion dammit!

Trixies ancestor. The magical bloodline must have thinned out a bit.

Somehow, I get the feeling that he's one of the six (along with Celestia, Luna, and three other yet-to-be-named ponies) who banished Discord in the first place.

Hopefully, we will get a multi-part flashback episode to Discord's time as ruler, and Celestia's rebellion. It would make a great season finale.

Well, #591123, he WAS the inventor of the "amniotic" spell which in latin would translate to pre-natal or having to do with fetal development.

In essence, he must have made a spell to cure birth defects, thus allowing countless parents to never worry if their child would be deformed or unable to survive.
However, he could not cure himself as the spell only worked on things still in the womb.

that's my headcanon and I'm stickin' to it!

I like this picture. Looks just like a fussy, old wizard, or a pony version of Merlin(assuming Merlin wasn't fussy and was just old). Take your pick.

@anon 584 That...is rather interesting. If that is what the amniotic spell does, then he single-handedly revolutionized pony medicine. That would be a very big thing, though sadly is something I can see the inventor of fading into obscurity.

Is it really so hard to believe that he grew the beard to compensate for feminine facial structure?
