Talk:Twilight's Kingdom - Part 1/@comment-26973802-20140507020322

One thing that's clear is that he is quite different from his G1 counterpart.


 * G1 Tirek has a gray beard. G4 Tirek has a white beard and a nose rinbg.


 * G1 Tirek uses the Rainbow of Darkness to corrupt ponies to pull his chariot and bring the Night That Never Ends. G4 Tirek sucks out unicorns' magic to increase his power, and presumably his size (if he is the "biggest" threat).


 * G4 Tirek has elements of a monkey.


 * G4 Tirek is considerably darker since G1 Tirek never did any permanent damage (though not for lack of trying), everything he did was reversed when he was destroyed. G4 Tirek is permanently sucking out ponies' magic and vanishing their cutie marks, destroys Ponyville (though it might be restored by Rainbow Power), and if imdb is to be believed, he'll probably kill Discord on account of him not being credited for Part 2.
