Star Swirl the Bearded

Star Swirl the Bearded is a character from My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic.

He is voiced by Chris Britton.

Star Swirl the Bearded is a male Unicorn who was the mentor of Princess Celestia and Princess Luna, as well as Equestria's most important conjurer of its pre-classical era.

Most of the series, he was seen in flashbacks and mentioned only. At the end of Season 7, he makes his first in show appearance.

He and five other ponies made up what is known as the Pillars of Old Equestria, with Star Swirl representing the Element of Sorcery. He and the other Pillars were called upon by a unicorn named Stygian to battle a great evil. After Stygian becomes the Pony of Shadows, Star Swirl used a banishment spell to trap the Pony of Shadows, along with himself and his coleagues, in limbo.

Thousands of years later, Star Swirl and the Pillars were released by Twilight Sparkle, but in the process, accidentally releases the Pony of Shadows. Due to this, Star Swirl was bitter at the Mane 7 at first, due to his inexperience when it comes to friendship. However, after learning of Stygian's true intentions being well, Star Swirl and the other Pillars see the error in their ways and help the Mane 7 in freeing him and banishing the darkness. He later reunites with his two former students and decides to travel Equestria to see how much it has changed.
