In fact, it is her fondest hope that she act as a positive role model to inspire children as Kathleen Springheart's portrayal of the Mare-Do-Well inspired her, Hitch and Fluffy.
* NoStuntDouble: Like Kathleen Springheart before her, Last Call trained herself to possess all the skills she needed to do all of her own stunts.
* SuperiorSuccessor: Both to Kathleen Springheart as the Mare-Do-Well role (owing to actually getting what it truly means to be a hero as well as being much more respectful to unicorns, Pegasi and other sapient species) and, to a lesser extent, the original Mare-Do-Well (as she has enough control over her ego for her skill to show more consistently, albeit only slightly).

Badflank Normal: No super-powers, but she could certainly hold her own in a fight, even against super-powered opponents much younger than herself (usually when she had weapons specially tailored to their weaknesses, if the super-powered opponent was holding back out of morality or an equal combination of both)

However, in real life, Springheart was a gigantic egomaniac who not only was partially responsible for her show getting cancelled with her increasingly outrageous demands, but also had a tendency to be rude to her fans.

* SuperMode: Her hard light magic wings and horn (sometimes referred to as her "training wheels alicorn" form) are this.
* BlowYouAway: She has at least learned enough wind magic to be able to fly around a small group fast enough to trap them in a mini-tornado, as shown when she and Izzy saved a family from a lynch mob in Pledge Falls.
* CombatPragmatist: While she usually tries to avoid fights, when she does fight, she isn't adverse to using a quick blinding flash and some Mind Over Matter to bring a quick end to the fight.

* FantasticRacism: The situation on New Equus is that with the loss of magic, as well as the prolific spreading of ignorance and misinformation, the three main Pony tribes have become racist towards one another and split off to live in separate communities, as was done in the original Equus during the 'Three Tribes Era'. Fortunately, the formation and efforts of the Unifying Five present a glimmer of hope that this can be averted.

In a well-informed society, Sprout's regime would've never been able to rise because he would, rightfully, have been seen as an idiot. But due to the ignorance of the population on the other two tribes and the misinformation being peddled broadly, rather out of malice or out of ignorance and fear, all it took was a little spark to turn things into a firestorm of hatred were even a bigoted idiot like Sprout could take control. It's sad... but [[NotSoDifferentRemark we were not so different long ago]], were we?

* TheMagicGoesAway: Similarly to the original Equus' 'Second Age' of Known History, New Equus suffers from a severe depletion of magic, with the three main Pony tribes being unable to perform their tribal magics. While the Earth Ponies and Pegasi have managed to get by without theirs, the Unicorns were hit the hardest, as magic was the only thing they could do.

Here is a list of characters from New Equus, the LostColony world where Sunny Starscout and her friends, the 'Unifying Five', have their adventures in the Fifth Age. Originating from a population of Equusians which had become stranded there during the 'Second Void Aeon' that marked the end of the Fourth Age, they had all but forgotten their actual heritage and are convinced that they are on Equus itself, with the Three Tribes there believing they themselves are living in the lands of old Equestria. Having recently been rediscovered by an exploration starjammer of the Interstellar Federation of Friendship, New Equus is now being watched with keen eyes which had now been drawn to this world and its star system over the return of magic and other secrets laid buried there...\\\

[[folder:General]]
* ForegoneConclusion: Many outside of New Equus and observing events there [[https://www.deviantart.com/comments/1/889105057/4945555746 expected]] the eventual rediscovered of their past, the unification of the Pony Tribes on New Equus in spite of their inter-tribe distrust and prejudices and the rediscovery of their magic to be a matter of historical certainty due to various factors both within and beyond Ponies' control, from increasing interactions between the growing civilizations and advancing societies to increasing numbers of Ponies like Argyle, Sunny Starscout and Princess Zipp Storm discovering evidence of their past. All that is left to determine is when exactly and how it would play out, and this was where they were taken by surprise as the last Pony they expected to pull it off was Sunny Starscout.
--> '''IFS Science Officer:''' All of our calculations and predictions had been upended by unexpected actions of individuals and uncontrollable forces of nature... but the same could be said of much of history.
--> '''IFS Captain:''' Quite so, but as you said before, some trends are inevitable, and the fact Ms Starscout and her friends were able to bring back magic and friendship to their part of the world despite these changes suggests perhaps sooner or later some things are bound to happen, due to factors set in motion long before they are born. All that has changed is when they occur, under what circumstances, and the specific details involved.
* HistoryRepeats:
** Like with the Second Great War in the Second Age and the Three Tribes in the Fourth Age, ignorance, deceit, mistrust and prejudices between peoples drove entire nations to conflict on New Equus, as Princess Amicitia herself [[https://www.deviantart.com/comments/1/889105057/4951147369 somberly noted]].
--> '''Princess Amicitia:''' The situation on New Equus is a prime example of the dangers of ignorance and misinformation. In a well-informed society, Sprout's regime would've never been able to rise because he would, rightfully, have been seen as an idiot. But due to the ignorance of the population on the other two tribes and the misinformation being peddled broadly, rather out of malice or out of ignorance and fear, all it took was a little spark to turn things into a firestorm of hatred were even a bigoted idiot like Sprout could take control. It's sad... but [[NotSoDifferentRemark we were not so different long ago]], were we?
** On a more positive side, just as Twilight and her friends activated the Elements of Harmony and saved Equestria with ThePowerOfFriendship, Sunny Starscout and her friends brought back magic and unity to the Three Tribes on New Equus through the three Pony Crystals with ThePowerOfFriendship, showing ultimately that Ponies and other beings can still overcome their differences and darker natures to become much better than they could, whether as one or together.
* InsignificantBluePlanet:
** In contrast to canon, by virtue of being a LostColony world populated by Equusians in the Fifth Age who forgot their heritage and believe themselves to be on Equus (not helped by the fact the planet had been terraformed and built-up during the interstellar eras of the Fourth Age to look like Equus for tourism), it's mentioned in the Fifth Age entries and Drabbles thus far that the world where Sunny Starscout and her friends' stories are taking place is considered an insignificant backwater system in a peripheral recently-reclaimed star sector, and the things happening there are being drowned out by wider events occurring across the wider colonized galaxy with its tens of millions of inhabited and colonized worlds. Of course, it's getting subverted as recent developments are starting to drag the attention of others towards it, starting with the Interstellar Federation of Friendship (which Fifth Age Equestria is a member state of) establishing a research and exploration outpost around New Equus' moon.
** Also downplayed somewhat by the fact Mistletoe Dreamer and the Dark Ages Alliance's TimeCrash endgame pulled Sunny's group backwards in time and they proved vitally important in stopping it. Twilight was aware they would likely exist someday (though time is still decidedly in flux), though was surprised as to ''where''.

[[folder:Sunny Starscout]]
----
* AlliterativeName: As in canon, '''S'''unny '''S'''tarscout.
* {{Determinator}}: She never gave up on her father's dream to reunify Ponykind and bring back magic to all the Pony Tribes, and this helped her (along with her friends and a train-load of ContrivedCoincidence) actually bring it about.
* DidntSeeThatComing: ''Nobody'' outside of New Equus observing events there believed she had a shot in Hell to facilitate Ponykind's reunification and returning magic to the Three Tribes on New Equus. The best odds they gave her is less than 0.000001%. And then she went and did it anyway through a chain of ContrivedCoincidence, friends and sheer determination.
* DramaticIrony: Both in-universe and out-, everybody except the New Equusians themselves know that they are not, in fact, denizens living on Equus itself, but are descendants of those who colonised the world earlier and had forgotten the truth.
* {{Squee}}: Sunny Starscout [[https://www.deviantart.com/comments/1/889105057/4946496643 fainted]] in sheer excitement when she along with her friends were sent thousands of years into the past and thousands of light-years to Equus thanks to the TimeCrash endgame of the Dark Ages Alliance, where they get to meet her idol Princess Twilight/Amicitia.
--> '''Sunny Starscout:''' Y-You're...You're...Princess Twilight?!
--> '''Princess Twilight/Amicitia:''' Uh...hello...And you are?
* TheUnchosenOne: [[https://www.deviantart.com/comments/1/889105057/4945555746 According]] to an Interstellar Federation of Friendship science officer, nearly everyone in the research outpost and back in the Federation proper believed the odds were simply too much against Sunny Starscout (They literally calculated her chances to be less than 0.000001%) for her to succeed in overcoming the prejudices of the Three Tribes on New Equus and reunite their people, and hedged their bets on crown-princess ''Zipp Storm'' being the one to do it instead out of the five-pony band. That Sunny Starscout actually succeeded took everybody by surprise.
[[/folder]]
[[folder:Princess Zephyrina Storm]]
The Crown-Princess of the Pegasus kingdom, Zephyr Heights, and twin sister of Princess Pipp Petals.
----
* TheChosenOne: Less prophecy but more because many believe, [[https://www.deviantart.com/comments/1/889105057/4945555746 with reasonable assumptions]], that she have the best shot at succeeding in unifying the Pony Tribes and other races of New Equus due to her already being very intelligent and cunning, managed to find out much about Ponykind's unified past by herself, and was in imminent accession to a position of authority which would give her the resources and influence to do it years later. That Sunny Starscout managed to do it years earlier despite her incredibly low odds of success (less than 0.000001% by Interstellar Federation of Friendship scientists' calculations) took everybody by surprise.
[[/folder]]
[[folder:Princess Pipp Petals]]
The Princess of the Pegasus kingdom, Zephyr Heights, and twin sister of Princess Zephyrina Storm.
----
* AlliterativeName: As in canon, both title and name: '''P'''rincess '''P'''ipp '''P'''etals.
* Hammerspace: It turns out that, to Diamond Mantle's surprise, her canon ability to store her Screenphone within her wings is of this effect. Golden Scepter notes the similarities between her mutation and Pinkie/Thalia's ability to store things in her hair, and expresses interest in spreading it to the rest of Pegasus kind. Sunny [[https://www.deviantart.com/comments/1/889105057/4946513620 cited]] this as one example of how the Three Tribes' magic on New Equus isn't entirely gone, merely diminished to negligible levels.
* {{Mutants}}: Diamond Mantle, Platinum Crown, and Golden Scepter observed via reports that [[https://www.deviantart.com/comments/1/889105057/4946160302 she has developed a mutation where she could store things in her wings and still fly]], akin to a BagOfHolding spell. Notably, no one except her has the mutation, meaning it's unique to her or at least incredibly rare, and even Diamond Mantle (the parental deity of Pegasuskind) expresses surprise that she, a Pegasus, even has it at all, since he do not recall giving them that ability during the uplift process ages ago. Golden Scepter notes her mutation is similar to Pinkie Pie/Princess Thalia's abilities and expresses interest in helping spread it to the rest of Pegasuskind.
[[/folder]]
[[folder:Izzy Moonbow]]
* MySignificanceSenseIsTingling: Sunny Starscout [[https://www.deviantart.com/comments/1/889105057/4946513620 noted]] that Izzy seemed to have a 'Sixth Sense' which allows her to show up at the right time and place to meet up with Sunny at Maretime Bay. This is cited by her as one example of how perhaps the magic of the Three Tribes on New Equus isn't entirely gone like they thought until they brought it back, merely diminished to negligible levels.
[[/folder]]
[[folder:Hitch Trailblazer]]
* ClosetGeek: Is a fan of Mare-Do-Well (whose legends survived well into the Fifth Age across Equus-colonized parts of the galaxy) and the televisor programs made about her, and [[https://www.deviantart.com/comments/1/889105057/4950455378 dressed up]] like her for one 'Night-Mare Night' festival.
* ToBeLawfulOrGood: Hitch firmly chose good when he [[https://www.deviantart.com/comments/1/889105057/4945612910 stood his ground]] against a BigotWithABadge in the another town who were part of the 'Hoof Bux Klan', after his friends Zipp Storm and Izzy Moonbow rescued an Earthpony mare from a lynch mob there for giving birth to a Pegasus and a Unicorn foals only to get in trouble with the racist Earthpony local sheriff when they try to report the crime. The town may be out of his jurisdiction, but a crime is still a crime and he is going to do something about it like a good sheriff should.
--> '''Sheriff Hitch:''' What you call sense, Sheriff Ironhoof, is just pure and simple bigotry... while I might have been fine with capturing and driving out unicorns and Pegasi before I had my eyes opened, I would NOT have approved a lynch mob (even if, unfortunately, my own deputy did). And, by the way Zipp is also royalty (even if she didn't try to invoke it in the fight with your deputies and the mob they riled), which means, while your town might be out of my jurisdiction, you're still in quite a bit of trouble.
[[/folder]]
[[folder:Sprout Cloverleaf]]
* BewareTheSillyOnes: He's a cowardly bigoted idiot, but because the world he live in is so suffused with ignorance, misinformation and prejudices he still got a chance to become much more dangerous in spite of his failings, something which Princess Amicitia herself [[https://www.deviantart.com/comments/1/889105057/4951147369 pointed out]].
* BreadEggsMilkSquick: Sprout Cloverleaf - son of CEO Phyllis Cloverleaf, deputy sheriff of Maretime Bay, former [[TyrantTakesTheHelm rabblerousing]] [[TheDictatorship dictator]].
* TheDictatorship: During the events of the G5 movie, being made temporary sheriff of Maretime Bay and being encouraged by his mother to take charge led to Sprout - normally a cowardly bigoted idiot - becoming a rabblerousing dictator as the power quickly goes to his head, declaring himself 'Emperor' of Maretime Bay, making anti-Unicorn/Pegasi laws like the '[[DystopianEdict Sprout Act]]' and having a giant robot built with the intent to make war on the other two Pony tribes nearby.
* GettingSmiliesPaintedOnYourSoul: PlayedForLaughs. Feeling down and demotivated over the whole sorry episode where he took over the town and went on a rampage with a giant robot, his mother tried to help him by giving him an experimental mood-improvement medication developed by her company [[IncompetenceInc Canterlogic]]'s R&D division, hoping it would make him feel better and more confident (For once it's actually undergoing proper Pony subject test trials. Sprout just happens to be the first volunteer test subject). It [[https://www.deviantart.com/comments/1/889105057/4952646750 worked]]... [[GoneHorriblyRight to an extent]].
--> '''Sprout Cloverleaf:''' [[LargeHam GREETINGS]], You little ''SNOTS!''
--> '''Sunny Starscout:''' ... [[CaptainObvious You're on drugs]].
--> '''Sprout Cloverleaf:''' Oh, but I AM! Disappointed ~ ? Did you EXPECT me to stay the same FOREVER?! 'Cause that's not what drugs does, BABY!
* GogglesDoNothing: Defied. Even when he was [[https://www.deviantart.com/comments/1/889105057/4952648115 smashing]] Hitch's new cart in a moment of mood medication-induced rage, he still wears goggles to protect his eyes.
--> '''Hitch Trailblazer:''' You're wearing protective goggles to destroy my cart?!
--> '''Sprout Cloverleaf:''' Safety first!
* KarmaHoudini: While it is unclear how he got away with his takeover of Maretime Bay and rampage in a giant robot, it's [[https://www.deviantart.com/comments/1/889105057/4952648115 mentioned]] he got away with smashing Hitch's cart in a bout of irrational rage on account of being under the influence of medication at the time.
* MoodSwinger: While [[https://www.deviantart.com/comments/1/889105057/4952646750 under]] the effects of an experimental [[IncompetenceInc Canterlogic]] 'mood-improvement medication' (He volunteered for the Pony test trials), he swung between being an extremely motivated and confident smack-talking LargeHam to being an [[IrrationalHatred irrationally]] [[UnstoppableRage angry]] maniac who smashes property (while wearing safety goggles) over slights.
* ShoutOut: His [[https://www.deviantart.com/comments/1/889105057/4952646750 behaviour]] while under the influence of a mood-improvement drug pays homage to his canon voice actor's character and his antics in several episodes of ''[[{{Series/Community}} Community]]''.
* TragicVillain: Ultimately, Sprout is still just a product of prejudiced environments and influences which he was born and grew up in and which were the root causes of his brief villainy. Thus, his dictatorship and rampage is [[https://www.deviantart.com/comments/1/889105057/4951147369 portrayed]] to be less solely his fault and more a tragic consequence of ignorance and misinformation resulting in Tribalist attitudes being so widespread in that corner of New Equus that even a bigoted idiot like Sprout could take advantage of them to take over. It doesn't justify what he did, but it's perfectly understandable in that context.
