Description
Commission work and concept by *hinoraito .Updated version coming soon, but these are the Inquisitional Guards of the French ponies. Under the direct leadership and authority of Judge Clyde von Frollo, this all-male body of unicorns represent the determined embodiment of law and order in France. Skilled with halbreds as their traditional weapons, these unicorns frown on the 'graceful' elegance of the Knights Templar, preferring rather to use intimidation and force to get their way.
UPDATE: New version fixed slight coloring issue on left guard pony with reins.

Clyde Von Frollo sounds like a German name, and the Inquisition is portrayed as a Spanish thing in contemporary popular culture.

Indeed, those very same ones ^^ 'Prance' represents the 'European' countries of my world, minus the UK ^^

Prance represents France. "Germaneigh" represents Germany. I think Gildedale is a mixed racial population, and doesn't represent any given country. This is all assuming that you use the "Where The World Ends" map.

Now what do the pony Inquisition hunt that seems like witchcraft?

They could be hunting down enemy religions (if a fanfiction writer wanted to go that way), or they could be used to root out changelings that are disguised amongst the general population.

Well ... let's imagine they hunt ... stuffs. And act like some kind of secret service, tracking down threats to Equestria.

Heh, there used to be a Prance nation, then a Prench canton in Equestria. That is, until Hasbro released their official map. :I

Hehe, I wanted to use Prance as their nation, but that country's name was used by another Deviant here that I talk to that has the whole 'World of Equestria' map project going on.
And since during the show they actually mention 'France' (during Fluttershy's rant about French Occoutoire or whatnot.. can't spell that XD), I decided to play it on the more canon/safe side there.

During Fluttershy's rant ? Which episode ? The only time I remember prench/french was spoken in MLP was in that episode when Applebloom got that strange infection and stuff.

Hmmm true. I think Henrik might be removing both Prance and Germaneigh what with the canon map, we'll see.
