I said I'd post this in the morning but got busy and I dont' feel like waiting til next morning so here you go, lol. I guess I'll renotify everyone in the morning.
Right off the bat I apologize for this being/looking so sloppy. I wasn't expecting to end up drawing the characters and started out drawing a mannequin. the line out color as well as ome aspects of the designs are bad afdjksal;fjdskla;j
So, I mentioned in my Valorverse writing about Twilight that she was kinda forced to get a royal guard with the increasing tensions between creatures and Equestria. https://www.deviantart.com/musical-.....issa-785744261
I then realized that I'd probably need to design said armor, lol.
You can look at my first attempt here: https://www.deviantart.com/musical-.....-1-0-793342688
Not much is different besides the fact I decided to make the armor Asymmetrical when it came to the Mane 6's cutie marks in that one. lol.
Here's the second one: I basically used these as the line art for this drawing: https://www.deviantart.com/musical-.....-Art-793211093
In this one you can see bsaically what the full armor looks like.
The left wing has fluttershy's CM and the right has Rainbow's,
The left side of the chest piece has Applejack's CM and the right has Pinkie's,.
The "Front" side of the horn piece has twilights, and the back has Rarity's (except it's just a single diamond)
Anyway, here we have our first two official Guards excluding Tempest.
Tempest, when she was volunteered to start the guard and be the leader, offered to let Twilight have a say in designing the armor it's self to try to warm her up to the idea a bit.
Tempest handled the technicalities ( "sorry twi you can't put that on because that creates a huge weak spot" "Do you WANT the enemy to drag us down, or worse yet, a dumb recruit step on ribbon and faceplant himself? That's what happens when you put frilly ribbon on the armor") while Twilight tried to hone in Rarity's design prowess.
Even though it ha d been quite a while since she had seen them, she wanted to incorperate something each and every one of them had.
She started with the cutie marks. Applejack and Pinkie's were added to the chest plate as a symbol of strength. Specifically, Earth pony strength.
She added Fluttershy's and Rainbow's to symbolize Protetction (of thier wings) as well as Pegasus strength, and added Rarity's to symbolize Unicorn strength and magical prowess. She only begrudgingly added hers because Tempest wanted her to. This is the case for all the references to Twi in the armor.
They also of course symbolize their Elements.
The color of the armor is the same as the necklaces/Crown that hold the Elements (not technically, but I use different colors for them in this AU), and the headpiece's hair color incorperates the colors from the friendship keys/rainbow power.
(I don't know how to explain in in the verse yet, remember when their eyes would shine and then they got a gift that ended up being a key to open the Chest of Harmony and then they had rainbow powers? afjdklas;jf)
Tempest helped her as much as she could.
She got REAL sick of Twi's perfectionism though, lol. It got to the point where she basically told Twi that THIS was the final design. However, to her dismay, the "Final" design went through about 6 more reiterations.
But, finally, the armor was made, and Tempest sent out official flyers and papers to join Twilight's guard.
Star Tracker's idolation of Twilight never really went away, so when he heard that she was getting a guard and that they were looking for members, he immedietely applied despite not having any training. He was the first official trainee for the guard.
Flash Sentry joined soon after, reccomended by Cadence and Shining Armor themselves.
I'll be writing something for this here soon and will link it when I finish it here, lol.

Please enjoy!

I'd love to be one of the Soldiers of Friendship! I wasn't born to be a fighter -- but that doesn't sound like the main thing they're looking for, anyway.
With the love of the Princesses, I hope I can be someone who helps build their strength to spread friendship around the world. With them as my guardian angels, they might ensure their beloved guards safe passage when they need to face an enemy.
In the end, the Royal Guards need the Princesses themselves to protect and nurture them. And when they succeed in this, they have a whole legion of friends to assist them -- and that can only make them much stronger!
