Astaroth is not like normal Longma. He is able to do more magic than most normal Longma can without the need of years of training, no one knows why this is, not even his mother Dusk. Some think it is because of the necklace said to be given to him by a Draconequus Goddess of War, while others say it signifies that Longma are very susceptible to dark magic due to their Dragon heritage, a theory many scholars have had. His two most noteworthy spells are the black fire which he creates from his horns and then controls to burn whichever he pleases, and his bonding powers, using the wrappings around his tail to immobilize any pony he wishes, by tying them up with it so tight they can't move an inch. He has other spells with which he uses of course, all of them are dark and evil, some even forbidden by the Princesses.

As a young age Astaroth had dark and evil thoughts, his mother knew why... something from her dark past... but would never tell him, hoping that she would be able to keep a tragedy from happening, and thus tried to help him surpass such thoughts by having Luna cast a spell upon him. After awhile, the spell stopped working, and starting to feel as though something was being kept from him, he researched some dark magic, a spell that would make his mother give him the truth. Upon trying to cast it, it backfired and the dark magic awoke something within him, and certain memories returned to him as though from a past life... This prompted him to run away from home, dazed and confused. He returned out of no where years later, wreaking havoc upon Equestria, from burning down entire villages to kidnapping many ponies to torture, and everything in between. For his dark ways, the Princesses banished him to Tartarus, which was not an easy task. Due to the strange power he possessed, the magic of the Princesses was almost not enough to throw him into the forsaken place, farther proving the theory that the necklace was made by a Draconequus, one of the few creatures that have more power than the Sisters. Along with their magic, Dusk had to push him into Tartarus with all of her strength. However, he has since then escaped with a number of Longdi followers, and are currently in hiding. No one knows what he's planning...

------------------------------

Only one mare knows of this Longyi's intentions, his true reason for the destruction he causes. In his 'past life' as you may call it, he was a creature bent on destroying everything it could and sending it into a state of nothingness, but that desire has changed slightly since then, he wishes to cause the destruction of this world to make way for a better one. This mare knows of the other side of him as well, the side he represses and never shows, his anguish of what he says is the betrayal that his mother did to him, from the lies to her tossing him into Tartarus, she did all of these things to protect both him and Equestria, but he doesn't see it that way.

The mare that knows all this of him, is Misery's Cry (hollowolfpup.deviantart.com/ar… ). He seemed to be drawn to her, as they had many chance encounters in the past (one early one resulting in a foal due to Misery's cunning abilities and malicious intent sensing Astaroth was demon) and each time he learned a bit more about Misery, feeling more and more drawn to her. Not only did she have abilities he could use for his cause, but he also saw a lot of himself in her, like his misery filled repressed side. Time between encounters shortened more and more, until he finally whisked her away to his lair one night (forcefully with the help of his wrappings of course since that's how he rolls) so she would hear him out. He told her of his life, of his past life, and of his plan, his TRUE plan, something he couldn't tell his other followers who wanted destruction for the sake of destruction. And he promised her a world where she would not longer be in anguish, where she could be happy forever with her foals, and him, as she would be the Queen of this new world along side him. Since then they have had a number of other foals, and together with all of their cunning have been planning something huge that will surely result in destruction...
