My name is Zachary "Chaotix" Sparkle, son of Princess Twilight Sparkle and the human known as TD, the Terror of Dimensions; the most powerful being in all of existence.

The story behind my father is one that can be complicated, but also sad to hear. For hundreds of thousands of years outside Equestria, he was simply known as a villain who desired to have all worlds submit under his rule. None could rival his power and it was only by earning his respect or by discovering his weaknesses that he was ever truly defeated. Even so, he refused to give up until all worlds had suffered under him.

And then came the day when he attacked my homeworld: Equus, or more specifically, the land of Equestria.

When my father arrived in Equestria, it was with the intention of enslaving the pony race and destroying our world. He very nearly succeeded multiple times, but each time there was something standing in his way. The first time it was because he was forced to abide by a personal code he had established with himself, but every other time it was because of my mother. Early on, my father found it impossible to try and end her life, for he was too attached to her. One of his attacks almost cost her life and it devastated him into defeat. From that day onward, he began the slow process of reforming himself and making amends to her world.

In between the time before that final attack and his reforming stage, my father and mother discovered their love for each other and married about a year or two later. Not long after, they were blessed with their first child, a combined incarnation of their two forms of magic; Friendship and Chaos.

That child was me.

Physically, I grew up like any normal pony, but mentally I matured at a much quicker rate, learning to walk/fly when I was barely a year old and speaking properly half a year later. By the time I was five, I might as well have been an adult in the body of a young colt. Our family had also increased in size since then, with first my own treasure, a Timberwolf named Plank whom I raised since he was a cub when I was three, and then my adoptive sister, Diana, a unicorn who was the only survivor of an attack on her village conducted by a resurrected King Sombra. My dad has made an entire story of his time in our world that could explain in better detail, especially since I'm forced to skip ahead to save time.

Throughout my years as a child, I had heard all about the stories my father would share on occasion about his years as the villain, including a few about some other families he had before my mother. I assumed that most of them had died out by then, but I was proven wrong when my dad traveled to an alternate Equestria to save the life of another human; Joy Star, adoptive son of Princess Celestia, and Prince of Equestria. On one of his encounters in that universe, he discovered a child of his that had survived; my half-sister, Mimi, who came from a race of shapeshifters. After her appearance, I became curious as to whether more of my dad's families still existed. But my hopes were slim and I gave up on any hope of such a reality.

Until the day when a simple pest problem (sorry Uncle Chuck and Aunt Pinkie!) caused me to stumble upon a magic journal that would change my life forever...
