Princess Celestia is an Alicorn pony, the co-ruler of Equestria alongside her younger sister Princess Luna, and the adoptive aunt of Princess Cadance. In addition to her responsibility of raising the sun, she has also been the teacher of Twilight Sparkle and Sunset Shimmer at different periods in time, often addressing Twilight as “my faithful student” while mentoring her. She has a pet phoenix named Philomena. She is called Nightmare Star in some merchandise.
Celestia is introduced in the prologue of the first episode, depicted in a series of medieval-style drawings with a narration that says that “two regal sisters who ruled together […] created harmony for all the land,” and that “the eldest used her unicorn powers to raise the sun at dawn; the younger brought out the moon to begin the night.”
The narration continues: their subjects, the ponies, played in the day but “shunned” the night and slept through it, which made the younger “unicorn” grow bitter, eventually refusing to lower the moon to make way for the dawn. Her bitterness “transformed her into a wicked mare of darkness: Nightmare Moon.” The elder sister reluctantly harnessed the power of the Elements of Harmony and banished her “in” the moon for 1,000 years, maintaining harmony in Equestria by taking responsibility for both sun and moon.
Following the prologue, Twilight Sparkle reads of a prophecy that states that “on the longest day of the thousandth year the stars will aid in [The Mare in the Moon’s] escape, and she will bring about nighttime eternal,” though Spike dismisses it as “an old ponies’ tale.” The day of Nightmare Moon’s return is also the 1,000 year anniversary of the Summer Sun Celebration, so Princess Celestia sends Twilight to oversee the celebration’s preparations, which are being held in Ponyville, and encourages Twilight to “stop reading those dusty old books” and make some friends, much to Twilight’s surprise.
