ive never been a huge fan of canon discord, admittedly, but i think he has a lot of potential as a Serious, unreformed villain, so that's what i've made of him so far in my verse >:3c
the original sketch had mortal luna and celestia next to him, for scale, and even though that was scrapped just know that he is Very, Very Big. huge lad

★ Chaos is, as the scholars say, the opposite of Order. And Chaos is necessary, for evolution and change and growth. It is, in its own volatility, part of Harmony. But a harmonious existence was not one Discord cared for.

It amused the Lord of Chaos to torture his little ponies, but the laughter died when he felt the Tree's quiet magic pulse, a rumbling as profound as the slow heartbeat of the Earth. Realizing he'd been tricked, the great serpent let out a roar that had none of the usual mocking excitement whenever he engaged in battle; his wrath was said to shake the very fundations of the country, and so did the Draconequus twist and slither as if through water back to his lair deep under the earth, where the crystal cavers hid.

It was there that he beheld Celestia and Luna, small and mortal and afraid, for the first time.

The Elements were safely stashed away in their saddlebags, and for all that they were exhausted, their eyes shone with determination. Their expressions made the great beast's blood boil, and as his rotten fangs bared in maniacal laughter, the sky behind his frame unfurled in its maddening mess; the heavens were tinted the color of a blood bruise, a hell of non-color throbbing overheard, mad clouds reaching for the light of the celestial bodies Discord had imprisoned with his own wicked magic. Since the beginning of his reign, Equestria had not known day or night, but a constantly shifting waltz of light and darkness that pleased the Serpent so. But now the Lord had been stolen from, and in his fury the very stems of reality were coming undone.

Celestia and Luna decided the fight would be a fair one.
