Misuse. A Berserk Button is defined as being a recurring trigger (this happens once) that induces disproportionate rage (Applejack barely gets angry in the comic) over something minor (which keeping slaves definitely isn't).

When making changes and additions, be sure the information comes from the comics or the storybooks set in the comicverse. '''Not everything from the cartoon or toy packaging applies here.'''
'''Majesty''':
The queen of the ponies, residing in Dream Castle. She is in nearly every story, sometimes giving advice and often taking direct action. She has four golden horseshoes that increase her power. To enemies, she grants mercy to those who deserve it but those who ''don't'' have been sentenced to a FateWorseThanDeath.
*AFatherToHisMen: As expected from the BigGood of this sort of story, she's like a mother to her mares. The ponies would do anything for her, as well.
*BigGood
*NeverLiveItDown: See Celestia and "sending people to the moon." Majesty doesn't ''just'' go around turning everyone who annoys her to stone or some such.
*RhymesOnADime: Her strongest spells require her to say a little rhyme.
*TakenForGranite: She has been known to punish evildoers in this manner, turning them to stone or some other inanimate form. Sometimes they explicitly [[AndIMustScream will remain conscious and aware]] forever.
*TheHighQueen
*TrulySingleParent: To Baby Lucky.
'''Spike''':
A small dragon, a baby by dragon standards though his maturity level is about that of the ponies. He is often at Majesty's side; however, he does have dragon friends and relatives he often visits.
*TheOneGuy: Until Lucky comes along.
'''Baby Lucky''':
Created entirely with magic by Majesty, he is treated like a son by her and like a brother by Spike. He and Spike play noisy games and go on several adventures together. Though an earth pony, he has impressive magical powers that he usually doesn't know he's using.
*BornLucky: It's in the name. His cutie mark is a horseshoe.
*BowtiesAreCool
*CatchPhrase: When something good happens for him, he'll say "Who's a lucky boy?" However, [[MadLibsCatchPhrase once in a while it's not "lucky."]] There's also "Happy go lucky" (in the same context as "who's a lucky boy." Forgive him for not knowing what the phrase actually means; he's ''minutes'' old the first time!) When he says this, it causes a different magical effect to happen, such as bringing toys to life, etc. He doesn't know he's doing it, and no one will tell him, as Majesty feels he's not ready to know.
*CreatingLifeIsAwesome: Again, Majesty magically conjured him into existence. However, nothing bad comes of this, and he isn't treated as anything less than a full character.
*TertiarySexualCharacteristics: A bowtie instead of a tail bow marks him as a boy.
*ThirteenIsUnlucky: Inverted; according to Gypsy, for him thirteen is ''lucky.''
*WindsOfDestinyChange: Sometimes he brings good luck to those around him, though it's not something he directly controls.
'''Twilight''':
A mysterious, powerful unicorn who is rarely seen by day. When she must travel by day, she hides herself in a magical mist. She is greatly trusted by Majesty.
*MakeAWish: She can call on the power of the stars to grant wishes.
*NewPowersAsThePlotDemands: Really, she can call on the power of the stars to do pretty much ''anything,'' making her seem even stronger than Majesty. Sometimes, we get references to "her" stars, and she is able to either create or bring out stars at will.[[note]]Mind you, this is a fantasy series for little kids with SpaceIsMagic in full use; stars are about as big as they look to the naked eye and have been used/played with/stolen more than once, the constellation Cancer is a giant friendly space crab, and the Man in the Moon is… [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin a man. Who lives in the moon]]. Not on, ''in.'' By the rules of this series, Twilight's ''sorta'' overpowered, not "TheOmnipotent and in control of the entire universe" overpowered. Still, she'd be a GameBreaker in any other corner of MLP, including the TV series.[[/note]]
*NoSell: Twilight was once, with no explanation, the only pony not affected by a spell that had turned everyone else into stone. Another time, Majesty sent her to protect Lucky from being bewitched by GhostLights; Twilight was called on simply because Twilight wouldn't be in any danger from them. Once again, what's a danger to all others isn't to her because… just because.
*ShrinkingViolet: The narration frequently tells us that she is very shy, hence the "mystery figure shrouded in mist" routine, though she [[InformedAttribute doesn't really show this quality]] when she does interact with the others. Someone who'd hide in her own personal fog ''purely'' for fear that someone might pass by and say "Hey, Twi, what's up?" wouldn't ''go to a party,'' or act much like any other pony when she is approached, but Twilight does, just so long as it's after dark. However, ''before'' dark, good luck finding her if you're anyone but Majesty. (She does make a rare daylight appearance for a wedding, though.)
*TimeMaster: She once called on the stars to return time to the previous day and have the ForWantOfANail problem go a different way. (Adding the general mystery surrounding her, she didn't directly influence things to happen differently, like warning someone. They just… did.)
'''Gypsy'''
A fortune teller who uses cards, a magic wheel, or her own mysterious senses to tell the future and give advice.
*FortuneTeller
*TarotCards: She has cards she uses like them, though anything like ''actual'' tarot cards probably wouldn't fly in a kids' series.
*UsefulNotes/Romani: She fits the stereotype to a T - fortunately, the "mysterious fortune teller" stereotype and not the "crook" stereotype. Better listen to her; she's never wrong.
'''Shady'''
*CoolShades: Not just the ones in her cutie mark.
*TrueSight: Her sunglasses showed her many things that others couldn't see.
'''Lemon Drop:'''
Ponyland's number one jumper, brave and brash and a bit temperamental.
*BadassNormal: Direct use of magic wasn't just for unicorns in the comics. Lemon Drop is one of few ponies who ''never'' does anything magical. She is, however, the best jumper among the ponies, to the point of having competition medals, and going up against creatures with ''springs for legs'' and not caring if that obstacles were barbed wire or ''razor wire.''
*GracefulLoser: Despite her pride, when she lost a race due to getting caught up in some stinging nettles, she is gracious to the winner.
* NobodyCallsMeChicken: The reason she ran the dangerous course: She was ''dared'' to; all ponykind didn't hang in the balance or anything.
*RunningGag: Someone was always knocking over the fences she set up to practice jumping. (Hilariously, once, it was Sundance, who, in the show, was the one noted for jumping skills.)
*SeriousBusiness: As you can guess by this point, she takes her position as the best jumper pretty seriously, and unlike any athlete MLP character until FIM Rainbow Dash came along, we really see that she gets her skill by dedication, hard work, and lots of practice. Also, once, the ponies made an obstacle course for the baby ponies to play with; she made some obstacles to ''her'' standard, and if you couldn't clear them you usually ended facedown in the mud.
*TheQuest: She once had to go on a solo quest to get a MacGuffin out of an evil sorceror's castle (she has to win the sorceror's challenge to get it, and she's not allowed to have help.)
'''Applejack'''
She has a love of apples and clumsiness bordering on WalkingDisasterArea. Sometimes, though, she shows that there's more to her than meets the eye.
*BigDamnHeroes: She once rescued a group of ponies from an evil wizard all on her own.
*BigEater: She can never get enough apples. However, sometimes she does pick them (not for herself) or make treats with them.
*CuteClumsyGirl: To the point that you could say knocking things over is her true special talent. The "Who's A Silly Pony" meme you keep hearing? It came from a kids' sing-along song about ''this'' Applejack. "Who's a silly pony? You're a silly pony! Who is? ''You'' is, Applejack!/Bumping into posts and falling into trenches, who is? You is, Applejack!" (''If'' you know about this one, AJ's moment of falling off the bridge in the show is a typical moment; however, the show taken alone does not establish her as clumsy. Her only accident was crossing a rickety old bridge about which they'd already basically said "''this'' isn't a good idea, but it's the only way across." Comic AJ, on the other hand? Three words: [[WalkingDisasterArea DERPY WITHOUT WINGS]].)
*GettingCrapPastTheRadar: As it has been noted, Applejack is the name of a strong alcoholic beverage. The comic makes it seem a bit more deliberate than her brief appearance in the show or her much-revamped (in personality terms) self in ''FIM,'' where the 'apple' part is all that matters: In the comic, not only is it the "silly pony" known for her clumsiness who shares her name with a type of booze, there being a dog character named ''Brandy'' (sold with Lemon Drop, but interacts with AJ at least once) can't be accidental, either. You get the distinct feeling that she's so uncoordinated for a ''reason.''
*GoodIsNotSoft: She semi-famously (semi because the comic isn't widely known, but it's considered pretty epic by those who do know) disposed of the evil wizard mentioned under BigDamnHeroes by kicking him down a deep crevice. (The narration tries to soften it, claiming that the pit just ''happened'' to open under the wizard at that point, but this is another case where the narration disagrees with what we see: the panel clearly shows AJ rearing up and sending him to his doom with her front hooves. All that's missing is a cry of "This is ''Spartaaaaa!''")
*MemeticMutation: Who's a silly pony?
'''Cotton Candy'''
The Ponyland nurse. Her love of eating flowers often gets her into trouble.
*BigEater: When it comes to flowers, at least. She can often be found with a mouthful of 'em. Once, she wore a dress made with real flowers… but then she got ''hungry.'' Another time, a hat with flowers as decoration was halfway gobbled up before Cotton Candy ''noticed the "hat" part.''
*HiddenDepths: The nurse thing. Most of her appearances revolve around her being a "silly pony" to rival Applejack who spends her days being chased out of gardens for indulging her sweet tooth. Then one day Applejack needs saving from a magic spell that can only be cured with certain herbs, and after being the one who learns what to do to save her, she decides to continue learning about medicinal herbs and eventually becomes Ponyland's official nurse. From then on, if somepony is injured or sick, what do you do? Go find Cotton Candy. Don't think this means your flowers are any safer, though.
*HypocriticalHumor: "There goes Applejack, off to the orchard again. You'd think she'd get tired of eating apples!" Says the pony who is seldom seen without a mouthful of flowers. (Yes, she's immediately called on it.)
*TheMedic: Is made the Ponyland nurse after learning from the "Princess of Herbs" to cure Applejack in one story, and is occasionally seen in this capacity afterward - even non-ponies will come to her from far away to be healed with her medicinal herbs and plants, which she has a roomful of. She manages not to eat them, apparently.
'''Moondancer'''
She is often seen with other night-related characters such as the Sandman and the Man in the Moon. She lights the night and often acts as a guide.
*DisproportionateRetribution: For eating her flowers, she once put a spell on Cotton Candy to make her sleep, long enough for her to be considered missing and for everyone to be worried. (It's a reference to her toy packaging blurb, in which she was going to make her sleep ''until winter'' and had to be talked out of it. Now ''that's'' cold. But the actual comic doesn't specify how long it would last.)
*LightTheWay: Making light at night is her most-used spell, though as with everyone she's had other one-off powers.
'''Firefly'''
One of the comic characters who is pretty much the same as her cartoon self, she is quite brave, and loves to perform acrobatic midair stunts.
*ChronicHeroSyndrome: When all the ponies were called to the castle, they assumed there was a crisis, and when it turns out that there isn't one, she was disappointed because she had hoped that someone needed her help.
*GottaCatchEmAll: one of her mostly-solo adventures had her seeking Majesty's four golden magic horseshoes, which had been stolen. (Curiously, in the cartoon, there was also a story revolving around finding four magic golden horseshoes. Mimic was magically connected to them and would die if they weren't brought back together. They belonged to her ancestor, an ancient legendary unicorn. However, that unicorn looked nothing like Majesty; no MythologyGag for you.)
*ImprobablePilotingSkills: Well, not ''piloting'' as it's with her own wings, but it's the same idea. Her midair stunts give gravity (and the fact that a horse's body isn't the most aerodynamic) the finger.
'''Sunbeam'''
*FunPersonified: While not quite as wacky as Surprise (who isn't as much of a major character in the comics), she loves planning parties and other such events. To her there's no such thing as the wrong time for a party. She's also organized a large royal wedding at least once.
'''Masquerade'''
*MasterOfDisguise: She is one herself, and makes disguises for anyone else who needs them as well. One time the baby ponies mistake an ''actual'' threat for Masquerade playing a trick on them, though.
'''The Baby Ponies'''
*ClonesArePeopleToo: See TrulySingleParent.
*{{Expy}}: Pretty much all of them are named "Baby [insert existing adult pony's name here]" and are perfectly identical in personality to their mothers (Baby Firefly does acrobatic aerial moves, Baby Applejack loves apples, Baby Shady's got magic sunglasses that show her stuff, etc.) and with the same cutie marks, only simplified (eg. Baby Applejack has four apples compared to her mother's seven. DependingOnTheArtist the number can vary for ''both'' Applejacks, though, and that goes for all the others.)
*StrongFamilyResemblence: Again, see Expy. And as to why, see "Truly Single Parent." Beyond even ''that'' is Baby Lickety-Split. Her cousin has the same name and the exact same design, except for a very slightly darker shade of red and a buck tooth to match the new "First Tooth Baby Pony" version of the toy. (In the show, there's only one of her, and the fact that she suddenly had an overbite near the end of the series went uncommented on.)
*TrulySingleParent: Baby Firefly and Baby Glory are seen being created from a magic mirror in response to their the original Firefly and Glory's wishes. Presumably the other baby ponies who are exactly like their adult counterparts but smaller were created the same way.
**The non-clone baby ponies fit under this too, as Lucky was created by Majesty and the Newborn Twins were [[ArtInitiatesLife drawn into existence]]. (However, as one drew the outlines and another traced them to make them sets of twins, and colored and named them, ''they'' have two "parents.") The Apple Delight set of "Loving Family Ponies" who pop up in one comic are seemingly the ''only'' case of ponies that have a mom and a dad. Though it's naturally never stated, magic being responsible for most new ponies makes a ''lot'' of sense given the LadyLand nature of the franchise.
When making changes and additions, be sure the information comes from the comics or the storybooks set in the comicverse. '''Not everything from the cartoon or toy packaging applies here.'''
'''Majesty''':
The queen of the ponies, residing in Dream Castle. She is in nearly every story, sometimes giving advice and often taking direct action. She has four golden horseshoes that increase her power. To enemies, she grants mercy to those who deserve it but those who ''don't'' have been sentenced to a FateWorseThanDeath.
*AFatherToHisMen: As expected from the BigGood of this sort of story, she's like a mother to her mares. The ponies would do anything for her, as well.
*BigGood
*NeverLiveItDown: See Celestia and "sending people to the moon." Majesty doesn't ''just'' go around turning everyone who annoys her to stone or some such.
*RhymesOnADime: Her strongest spells require her to say a little rhyme.
*TakenForGranite: She has been known to punish evildoers in this manner, turning them to stone or some other inanimate form. Sometimes they explicitly [[AndIMustScream will remain conscious and aware]] forever.
*TheHighQueen
*TrulySingleParent: To Baby Lucky.
'''Spike''':
A small dragon, a baby by dragon standards though his maturity level is about that of the ponies. He is often at Majesty's side; however, he does have dragon friends and relatives he often visits.
*TheOneGuy: Until Lucky comes along.
'''Baby Lucky''':
Created entirely with magic by Majesty, he is treated like a son by her and like a brother by Spike. He and Spike play noisy games and go on several adventures together. Though an earth pony, he has impressive magical powers that he usually doesn't know he's using.
*BornLucky: It's in the name. His cutie mark is a horseshoe.
*BowtiesAreCool
*CatchPhrase: When something good happens for him, he'll say "Who's a lucky boy?" However, [[MadLibsCatchPhrase once in a while it's not "lucky."]] There's also "Happy go lucky" (in the same context as "who's a lucky boy." Forgive him for not knowing what the phrase actually means; he's ''minutes'' old the first time!) When he says this, it causes a different magical effect to happen, such as bringing toys to life, etc. He doesn't know he's doing it, and no one will tell him, as Majesty feels he's not ready to know.
*CreatingLifeIsAwesome: Again, Majesty magically conjured him into existence. However, nothing bad comes of this, and he isn't treated as anything less than a full character.
*TertiarySexualCharacteristics: A bowtie instead of a tail bow marks him as a boy.
*ThirteenIsUnlucky: Inverted; according to Gypsy, for him thirteen is ''lucky.''
*WindsOfDestinyChange: Sometimes he brings good luck to those around him, though it's not something he directly controls.
'''Twilight''':
A mysterious, powerful unicorn who is rarely seen by day. When she must travel by day, she hides herself in a magical mist. She is greatly trusted by Majesty.
*MakeAWish: She can call on the power of the stars to grant wishes.
*NewPowersAsThePlotDemands: Really, she can call on the power of the stars to do pretty much ''anything,'' making her seem even stronger than Majesty. Sometimes, we get references to "her" stars, and she is able to either create or bring out stars at will.[[note]]Mind you, this is a fantasy series for little kids with SpaceIsMagic in full use; stars are about as big as they look to the naked eye and have been used/played with/stolen more than once, the constellation Cancer is a giant friendly space crab, and the Man in the Moon is… [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin a man.
