'''Sweetie Belle'''
Rarity's little sister, who's also a [[RobotGirl robot]]. However, she's unaware of it because if she knew what she was, she'd destroy Ponyville.
* CuteAndPsycho: Sweetie Belle starts treading close to this in "Neigh, Soul Sister" when she attempts attaching herself to Applejack.
-->[[AC:If the world isn't going to love me, ''then I'll teach it to fear me instead!'']]
* CuteMachine: Sweetie Belle, even with her [[RoboSpeak overtly robotic voice]]. Especially with her overtly robotic voice.
* DoAndroidsDream?: Even though everypony accepts that robots have no souls, the robot Sweetie Belle is one of the few characters to demonstrate love or empathy, or to call the others out on their Comedic Sociopathy.
** The trope namer is directly referenced as well - when Sweetie Belle sees sheep, she mentions seeing them in her dreams.
* DramaticIrony: Sweetie Belle accuses Rarity of being a [[AC:"soulless automaton"]] when she protests attending the Sentient Social with her. Of course, she's also (quite obviously) a robot herself, but nobody (including herself) notices.
** YouAreWhatYouHate
* FanNickname: "Sweetie Bot." [[CaptainObvious No points]] for [[RobotGirl guessing why]].
* NoisyRobots: She is almost always heard whirring whenever she moves.
* NoWaterproofingInTheFuture: Water makes Sweetie Belle [[AC:"feel funny"]].
* PaperThinDisguise: [[AC:Sweetie Belle is best sentient organic life form. Hooray!]]

* BlindWithoutEm: She admits that her astigmatism made her too nearsighted to join the army during the war or the Wonderballs now. Everything's blurry from her viewpoint. She mistakes Apple Bloom for Applejack at first, and then later both Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon. She refuses to listen to her eye doctor about getting glasses, though.

-->'''Rainbow Dash:''' I always liked rainbows and all, but I was dashing nowhere in a dash. It wasn't until my very first dash that I rainbowed a rainbow need to dash. And rainbow! Dash rainbow dash rain dash rainbow rain dash dash!
* {{Smurfing}}: Does this with "rainbow" and "dash".

[[folder:Pinkie Pie]]

An orphan whose parents died long ago, and who is believed by everypony to be an evil gypsy witch. Somehow, she's the closest thing to the [[OnlySaneMan Only Sane Mare]] in the entire cast.
* DescentIntoDarknessSong: Her orphanage song does this. It begins as a happy song, but then she starts singing about how unworthy she is.
* FourthWallObserver: She retains this status, as in canon. (In fact, she uses it in her magic!)
-->''When you're rife with devastation, there's a simple explanation:''
-->''You're [[MerchandiseDriven a toymaker's creation]] trapped inside a crystal ball!''
* LoserProtagonist: Apparently shaping up as one. In fact, every appearance of hers after "The Perfect Swarm" more or less involves her attempts at witchcraft.
* LyricalDissonance: [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=682pneYoP0c "Pinkie's Brew"]] starts off as a zany attempt by Pinkie Pie to go back in time but quickly becomes depressing as it's clear she wants nothing more than to see her parents. There's a reason the song cuts out partway through in the episode.
** "The Gypsy Bard" from "Cherry Bomb" also counts. Applejack lampshades this:
-->'''Pinkie:''' Wanna hear the song I sing to my parents? Oh, sorry, the one they sang to me?
-->'''Applejack:''' Doesn't matter which one, Pinkie. Long as it's not one of those sad ones with the deceptively happy tune.
** Pretty much any one of Pinkie Pie's songs counts.
* OneOfTheKids: Played for tragedy.
-->'''Pinkie Pie:''' I'm just a kid! I fit in!
-->'''Twilight Sparkle:''' Pinkie Pie, didn't you already have a childhood?
-->''*beat*''
-->'''Pinkie Pie:''' ''[[LittleNo No]].''
* [[OnlySaneWoman Only Sane Mare]]: She's this, oddly enough, despite her [[CloudCuckoolander canon personality]]. Her friends ''still'' insist on treating her as an evil gypsy witch.
** [[spoiler: By "Cute from the Hip", she's actually learned gypsy magic from Zecora.]]
* ParentalAbandonment: Most of her character revolves around being orphaned following her parents' untimely deaths.

[[folder:Fluttershy]]

The leader of a [[ReligionOfEvil cult]] that worships [[EldritchAbomination Lord Smooze]], a monster from the G1 movie. She does various things such as killing dragons, clubbing Spike with her spiked club, throwing rabbits into bonfires, etc., [[DevilInPlainSight but no one seems to notice or care]].

* CuteIsEvil: She's soft-spoken and adorable, as well as the [[spoiler:half-dragon]] leader of a ''doomsday cult.''
* DevilInPlainSight: It's pretty ridiculous how the other ponies regard Fluttershy when she called the parasprite swarm her "Army of Darkness", killed at least 13 dragons and many other demons, enjoys clubbing Spike with her spiked club, throws rabbits into bonfires, and leads a ReligionOfEvil.
* Freudian Excuse: Her evil seems to be the product of her hellish childhood.
-->'''Fluttershy:''' Do you know what a bunny fire is?
-->[[spoiler:'''Fluttershy's father:''']] Is it like a fire? For... bunnies? Are you still angry because I threw your velveteen rabbit in a fire?

[[folder:Rarity]]

A ShellShockedVeteran from the war, who is a member of a cult led by [[DevilInPlainSight Fluttershy]]. She is afflicted with PTSD and, according to Sweetie Belle, spends every Veteran's Day sobbing on the floor.

* ParentalAbandonment: Her parents died six years ago while on vacation. [[spoiler:They come back via one of Pinkie's portals, and then decide to take another vacation without their daughters. And die again, if the offscreen crash sounds are any indication]].
* PetTheDog: She missed the eclipse and the attempted return of [[ReligionOfEvil The Smooze]] in order to attend the Sentient Social with Sweetie Belle. Even her reasoning for doing so is a little heartwarming. "I wanted to save your soul". She cared enough for Sweetie Belle that she wanted to make sure she got through the apocalypse, when it did arrive.
* ReligionOfEvil: She's part of one with Fluttershy, where they worship "Lord Smooze," a monster from the G1 movie. Oh, and they attempted to summon him during a solar eclipse with the intention of ending the world.

* CatchPhrase: "What in the name of Lee's ghost..." and "Gravy!"
* FantasticRacism: Is apparently an xenophobe:
-->'''Applejack:''' Apple Bloom, the grapes are different than our kind! You know what that means!

* GreatOffScreenWar: She participated in one, if references to "the war" in "Read It and Sleep" and "Neigh, Soul Sister" are any indication. All that's known about it so far is that she thinks Rarity is a deserter and committed at least one war crime.
* HeroicSacrifice: Attempts to do this in "Cherry Bomb" by taking the bomb out of town and sparing her friends from a fiery death, but they catch up with her anyway. [[spoiler:Raincloud then saves them all by flying away with the bomb before it explodes.]]
* [[OnlySaneMan Only Sane Mare]]: Seems to be this in "Cherry Bomb" [[spoiler:until she tells Pinkie how she planned to "break the news gently", which was to let them witness her horrible demise]].

Ah, yes. Our protagonist, fillies and gentlecolts. She is the rather...[[ItsAllAboutMe self-centered]] student and protégé of Celestia. As of "Lunar Slander," [[spoiler:she now has Luna/Molestia's title as princess]].
* AbusiveParents: To [[ButtMonkey Spike]].
* ArsonMurderAndJaywalking: From "Lunar Slander":
-->'''Twilight Sparkle''': When Fluttershy isn't helping animals learn to read, she's tempting the devil with her dulcet tones! And she's yellow!
* CuteAndPsycho: Implied, if this bit of dialogue is any indication:
-->'''Rarity:''' What was that, "Applesack"? You wouldn't want us to [[NoodleIncident end up like Twilight's old friends in Canterlot]], would you?
* DealWithTheDevil: [[InvertedTrope Inverted]] with Molestia offering her title to Twilight for assistance making friends.
* EverythingsBetterWithPrincesses: In "Dragone Baby Gone," she claims that Celestia has named her a princess along with being the leader of Team D.E.S.U. And as of "Lunar Slander" [[spoiler:Luna gave her title to Twilight Sparkle]].
* GladIThoughtOfIt: When [[ButtMonkey Spike]] suggests raising the moon instead of putting on another puppet show.
--> '''Spike:''' When you're holding a puppet show, you can only force your friends and neighbors to watch. But ''everypony'' can see the moon!
--> '''Twilight:''' Great idea! I'm so smart! Keep up the good work, Twilight.
* ItsAllAboutMe: Twilight seems genuinely incapable of understanding that she's not the entirety of her friends' lives, to borderline [[{{Misery}} Annie Wilkes]] levels judging from Rarity's reaction to Applejack's plans to leave in 'Read It and Sleep'.
* LiteralMinded: Twilight thinks Princess Celestia wants her to build a "book fort." At the [[BrickJoke end of the episode]] we find out the princess had told her that "books are your forte".
--> '''Twilight:''' Fort... ''e?''
* ManipulativeBastard: Twilight Sparkle plays Molestia like a harp from Hell in Lunar Slander, and is all but confirmed to have been the one who convinced Celestia to banish her to Space Camp in the first place.

** Then [[http://askpagemaster.tumblr.com/ this guy]] appears on Apple Bloom's flank, and she asks the same question with the same tone.
** She also immediately decides that since Celestia put her in charge of taking care of the dragon problem, she can declare herself Princess Twilight (with [[http://ponibooru.413chan.net/post/view/41452?search=princess_twilight_sparkle this]] picture in the group shot).
