Zecora is a female zebra who resides in a hut in the Everfree Forest and first appears in Bridle Gossip. Initially believed to be an evil enchantress by the terrified populace of Ponyville, she later befriends the ponies and frequently helps them out with her knowledge of magical ailments. She speaks with a strong African-esque accent, forming rhyming couplets with all her sentences.

Development and design[]

Shaman

Shaman sketch by Lauren Faust

According to Lauren Faust, Zecora was designed to be a sage and mentor to whom the ponies could go for information about their quests, but the part didn't come up in the series' stories.[3][4] She was originally called "Shaman", but the name was not approved by the show's legal department.[4][5] The Hub requested for Zecora to be more special, so Amy Keating Rogers decided to write for her in rhymes.[6] The word "zecora" was, but is no longer, the word used for zebra by the Oromo people of east Africa.[7] Her name is spelled as "Zakora" instead of Zecora in the closed captions on The Hub and on Netflix.

Zecora has a more masculine appearance than other female characters: her muzzle is squared off and she has no eyelashes, which corresponds to the general male pony character design in the show. Like other zebras, such as the group in the book The Journal of the Two Sisters, Zecora (notably the only zebra to appear in the show) has a cutie mark—hers is a gray stylized spiral sun. She wears dzilla neck rings, traditionally worn by the Ndebele people of Southern Africa.[8] The traditional masks in her hut are a feature of the art and culture of Subsaharan and Western Africa. Zecora chants and speaks in an approximation of the Eastern African Swahili language; the crew did not have time or resources to hire a Swahili translator, so they asked Brenda Crichlow to improvise. There is also a North American influence: on the door of her hut hangs a dreamcatcher, an object found in the cultures of Native Americans.

When asked on Twitter why Zecora's past was not explored in the series, Jim Miller replied, "We pitched it, but Hasbro wasn't keen on exploring that story."[9]

Depiction in the series[]

Season one[]

Zecora giving her cryptic warning S1E9

"Beware! Beware, you pony folk! Those leaves of blue are not a joke!"

Zecora first appears in Bridle Gossip standing in Ponyville and digging at the ground with her hoof. Due to her scary appearance, the ponies in town all hide from her indoors. Twilight Sparkle and her friends spy on her from inside Sugarcube Corner while she visits the town. Twilight tells her friends that Zecora is a zebra and that she comes from "a faraway land." Her mysterious demeanor and appearance lead to widespread rumors that she is an evil witch, and Pinkie Pie even sings a song about it.

Apple Bloom decides to find out more about Zecora on her own and goes after her, making the six main characters venture into the forest. There they find Apple Bloom but unwittingly wander into a patch of poison joke and receive a cryptic warning from Zecora about the blue flowers, which according to her are "not a joke." However, Applejack and the other ponies ignore this warning, yell at Zecora, and warn her to stay away from them.

"Beware! Beware, you pony folk! Those leaves of blue are not a joke!"
— Zecora trying to warn the ponies about poison joke

The next morning, the ponies find out they have various ailments. With the exception of Twilight, they suspect that Zecora has put a curse on them. Apple Bloom follows Zecora into the forest again and meets her at her hut, where she befriends her and helps her gather ingredients to cure the ailments. They secretly witness her reciting a chant while brewing a soup. The ponies misinterpret Zecora muttering to herself that her soup has the perfect temperature for ponies and break into her hut. When the ponies come in and begin to knock things over, Zecora panics and shouts something in her native tongue. Rainbow Dash knocks over the cauldron, leaving Zecora stunned as her potion spills over the floor. Twilight begins to accuse Zecora of cursing her, and Zecora responds indignantly to Twilight destroying her home and making wild accusations. The conflict escalates to Zecora and Twilight butting heads until Apple Bloom arrives and clears up the situation. Twilight apologizes for her behavior and helps Zecora brew another batch of potion. Zecora and the main characters become close friends and Twilight takes her into town to confront the townsponies, which causes a panic when Zecora enters the town with the main ponies. The ponies add the herbal remedy to a bath at the local spa to revert the effects of the poison joke, and Zecora gains more respect from the community.

"Maybe next time you will take a second look, and not judge the cover of the book."
— Zecora imparting her wisdom
Zecora parasprite on my nose S1E10

Parasprite on Zecora's nose.

Zecora next appears meditating in her hut in the episode Swarm of the Century by balancing on her head on top of a bamboo pole. Twilight Sparkle seeks her aid in ridding Ponyville of a parasprite infestation. While Zecora recognizes the parasprites, she does not know how to get rid of them and simply states that the town is doomed.

Zecora is mentioned in Stare Master, where Twilight Sparkle states that she intends to visit Zecora for some of her favorite tea. However, Zecora does not physically appear in the episode.

Season two[]

Zecora With Spiders In Her Hair S2E04

Zecora in her Witch Doctor costume in Luna Eclipsed.

She makes a brief appearance in The Return of Harmony Part 2 in one of Twilight's flashbacks, showing the ending scene of Bridle Gossip.

The episode Luna Eclipsed shows her talent as a narrator of spooky stories. Introduced by Mayor Mare and wearing a creepy costume, she tells a variant of the legend of Nightmare Moon. Zecora showcases magical capabilities as she throws some powder, which generates luminescent and moved illustrations of the story she is telling.

In The Cutie Pox, Zecora shows up shortly after Apple Bloom chips her tooth and takes her to her house, where she creates a special brew to mend the tooth. Hearing of Apple Bloom's cutie mark-related troubles, Zecora tells her she must have patience. After Apple Bloom's tooth is fixed, she subtly suggests using a potion to give her a cutie mark, but Zecora says not even a potion can make a cutie mark appear. Zecora goes on to make a potion for a rooster who lost its ability to crow using a special flower called Heart's Desire.

Zecora Retrieving Heart's Desire S2E6

Zecora and the Heart's Desire.

Later on in the episode, Zecora enters Ponyville, believing the residents are still scared of her. Twilight Sparkle and Applejack explain to her that Apple Bloom has the Cutie Pox. Zecora explains that she had come to Ponyville to ask Apple Bloom about her missing Heart's Desire. She says that the cure for the Cutie Pox lies within the Seeds of Truth, which only grow if a pony speaks the truth about something they have lied about. When Apple Bloom tells the truth, the seeds grow into a flower that cures Apple Bloom once she ingests it. Apple Bloom apologizes to Zecora for stealing the Heart's Desire and asks if she can still visit her; Zecora accepts her apology and says she is always welcome to visit.

In Secret of My Excess, Zecora diagnoses Spike to be maturing, which she says is fueled by his greed. She further warns that as Spike gets more things, he will grow bigger, which will make him want more things. Zecora finishes the warning by telling Twilight Sparkle to stop this cycle or Spike will become a monster.

In A Friend in Deed, Pinkie Pie wishes her a "happy day-after-your-birthday".

Season three[]

Zecora "it's an abuse of power!" S3E5

Zecora talking to Twilight.

Zecora reappears in Magic Duel, in which she teaches some magic to Twilight Sparkle to help her beat Trixie. At one point, she shows an example of her skills by conjuring water in her cup. In the end, Zecora helps Twilight formulate a plan to beat Trixie. After Trixie is defeated, Zecora takes the Alicorn Amulet that Trixie was wearing and "puts it back in hiding where it belongs".

She later appears in Just for Sidekicks helping Spike with the pets he is looking after. Spike grudgingly pays Zecora for her help with a gem, which she promptly donates to charity, hoping to teach the baby dragon a lesson about generosity.

Zecora is later mentioned by Spike in Magical Mystery Cure. He suggests using Zecora's Seeds of Truth in order to return Twilight's friends' cutie marks back to normal. Twilight brushes the idea off, saying that it would not work. During Celestia's Ballad, Zecora is shown in a flashback.

Season four[]

Zecora suggesting more potion S4E02

Zecora appears in the season four premiere Princess Twilight Sparkle - Part 1 and Princess Twilight Sparkle - Part 2. In the premiere, she is forced to leave her home in the Everfree Forest due to its overgrowth.

In What About Discord?, Twilight requests a potion from Zecora in the hopes of breaking a spell that she believes Discord has cast on her friends. In The Cutie Re-Mark - Part 2, due to Starlight Glimmer and Twilight altering the timeline, Zecora becomes the leader of a band of savage ponies paranoid of changelings. She realizes that time has been altered after meeting Twilight and Spike, and she later engages Queen Chrysalis in battle when the changelings discover her camp, buying Twilight the time she needs to go back and restore history.

In It Isn't the Mane Thing About You, Zecora gives Pinkie Pie a magical remover potion to clean up a mess of silly string at Sugarcube Corner and Rarity a sudsy shampoo to clean the string out of her mane for a magazine photo shoot. Unfortunately, the two bottles get mixed up, causing most of Rarity's mane to fall out. Zecora tries to make a cure to fix Rarity's mane in time for the shoot, but her lack of expertise in mane-mending magic prevents her from doing so.

In A Health of Information, Zecora comes down with a terrible disease called Swamp Fever, for which a cure has not been discovered. She spends most of the episode bedridden, and as her condition worsens, she even stops rhyming. Fluttershy eventually finds a cure for the disease and heals Zecora.

After Spike undergoes a metamorphosis and gains wings, he and Twilight save Zecora and Rarity from the roc.

In A Rockhoof and a Hard Place, Zecora appears in a flashback, where Rockhoof brings her an entire tree instead of just a few leaves as she requested. However, the tree turns out to have a hive full of bees, who sting Zecora multiple times.

Zecora's house S6E4

Zecora's hut, post-update.[11]

Zecora lives in a hut in the Everfree Forest. It is a hollowed out tree containing a large circular room with shelves all around the walls. There is also an overhang where Zecora's bed is. The shelves are filled with magic potions and ingredients, and there are traditional masks hanging from the walls and a dreamcatcher on top of the door. There is also a cauldron filled with a glowing green liquid in the middle of the room, which she admits serves little purpose beyond tying the room together and is "just for show", as revealed in What About Discord? In the IDW comics' My Little Pony: Friends Forever Issue #5, after Zecora confuses teaspoons with tablespoons and causes an explosion in her hut, she states "that is why Zecora works out here, the ponies I might hurt are nowhere near." It is "Zecora's Hut" in Monopoly and is both "Zecora's Cottage" and "Zecora's Hut" in Gameloft's mobile game.

During the fair, she runs across a frustrated Big McIntosh, and encourages him not to get overworked over the difficulties he is having. In My Little Pony: Friends Forever Issue #5, Zecora helps Fluttershy when she suddenly starts hearing animals talk. In My Little Pony: Friends Forever Issue #21, she teams up with Spike when Ponyville falls victim to a mysterious flu.

In My Little Pony: Ponyville Mysteries Issue #4, she appears on page 3.

In My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic Issue #75, Zecora joins the Mane Six's quest for the fallen Andalusian stars containing the magic of Cosmos. In My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic Issue #76, she and the Cutie Mark Crusaders locate one of the stars in Griffonstone, and travel to Canterlot to meet up with the others. There, they find that Cosmos has taken control of Twilight, Celestia and Luna. In the battle that follows, Zecora is knocked out, then made to wear one of the stars (along with Big Macintosh), placing her under Cosmos's control also. In Issue #77, the final star is found, and takes over Princess Cadance. Cosmos then uses the stars to merge all her victims together to make a new body for her. In Issue #78, Zecora and the rest of Cosmos' victims are released when she is defeated and stripped of her stars by Discord and his friends.

In Issue #89, the start of the IDW comics' "Season 10" run, Zecora travels to her homeland of Farasi with Applejack, Rockhoof, and Tempest Shadow, but she is initially bitter about it. When the group arrives in Farasi, they are greeted by Zecora's old friends, but Zecora runs away from them. She reveals the reason for this to Applejack in Issue #90; when she was little, she wanted to be the first zebra to learn magic, and she was hurt when her friends didn't believe in her. This results in a present-day argument, with Marini resenting Zecora for distancing herself from the group and leaving home without telling anyone. The argument is interrupted by an attack by the Grootslang, which Zecora helps fend off with her potions. After Prince Abraxas, one of Farasi's four rulers, drives the Grootslang away, Zecora and her friends offer to pursue the creature to its hideout.

During the trip, Zecora reconciles first with Marini after they talk about the past, and later with the rest of her friends when they sing a song together. They finally reach the Grootslang's temple hideout, but are attacked by it. After running inside the temple, the group discover a Tree of Harmony within it. When Zecora touches the tree, she communicates with its spirit, who recognizes her receptiveness to the magic of friendship. Zecora and her friends then discover a new set of the Elements of Harmony, with Zecora becoming the element of magic. With these new elements, Zecora and her friends defeat the Grootslang and bring water and greenery back to Farasi. Zecora decides to stay in Farasi to catch up with her friends and study the temple.

Zecora receives a brief mention in Issue #96, with the events of her mission being mentioned by Rainbow Dash. In Issue #102, Zecora and her fellow Elements of History arrive during the Mane Six's fight against the Knights of Order to help save the ponies of Canterlot and defeat the Knights' leader Danu. She also agrees to join Twilight Sparkle's alliance of nations.

In My Little Pony: Generations Issue #3, Zecora examines the unusual magic found on some streamers made by Violet Shiver. When Twilight tries to absorb the magic, it takes her over, only to be stopped by Pinkie throwing some of Zecora's potions at it, with the remains contained in a test tube. Zecora then uses the magical substance in a potion to open a portal to its dimension of origin for the Mane Six and Starlight to travel through.

In My Little Pony: Classics Reimagined - The Odyssey, Zecora portrays Circe.
