After seeing this Cutie Mark and the other Nightmares' Cutie Marks, I somehow got the idea for a story set in yet another alternate Equestria, where an organization of ponies (mirroring Cthulhu-Mythos investigators, X-Com and the WH40K Inquisition) fighting a desperate war to defend their Equestria and their world against the forces of the Nightmares of Elements-of-Harmony alternate counterparts invading from beyond, with the operatives hunting down insane cultists that seeks to summon them and battling the extra-dimensional horrors the Nightmares created to serve them and their cause. The odds are stacked against them, the situation is bleak, and if any of the Nightmares break through it would be the end of the world as they know it.
The cultists would be using these inverted, corrupted Cutie Marks as symbols for their cults, the center of their worship, magicks and rituals. The symbols themselves would have some sort of inherent wrongness that would make it discomforting to even look at it, and any pony who does runs the risk becoming corrupted by them, letting the Nightmares or their servants finding anchor in their minds, tainting their soul and become a gateway to break through into their universe.
This is confusing as ****, isn't it?

Nicely done! Though I think her coat color should be a bit darker.

Her mane and tail were black-purple and magenta flames. Feathery wings that resembled tongues of fire spread out to their full length dramatically. She was a few inches taller than Celestia. Her coat was a deep purple. The air temperature around her rose, it made Derpy sweat.
Her champron, peytral, armored horseshoes, her alicorn armor, were sparkling white, a complete contrast to the rest of her. It was designed to be orderly and functional with a hint of ego to match.
On the front of her armor, on the peytral, was the symbol of a solar eclipse.
Covering half her face was a piece of armor engraved with the sun and the moon.
Far too familiar violet eyes slit like Nightmare Moon's glared at Twilight.
Her cutie mark, was a white six pointed star, in front of a magenta star, and five smaller magenta color stars surrounding the larger one. Twilight looked at the opposite colored cutie mark on her flanks, and shivered.
