8!!'''First Appearance''': ''FanFic/TheWeed''
9
10Ruler of Ponyville, and the Alicorn Princess of Friendship.
11----
12* AlienBlood: After Twilight becomes the Librarian of Souls, she now bleeds ink rather than blood. One perk comes with having her own supply of quills, since the feather nibs from her own wings are filled with ink.
13* TheArchmage: Also the literal goddess of magic.
14* AscendToAHigherPlaneOfExistence: She underwent a gradual process to replace The Nameless One and become the Librarian of Souls. The Ascension is depicted in ''FanFic/{{Ink}}''
15* BadassBookworm: When Ponyville comes under attack, Twilight Sparkle goes to war.
16* BerserkButton: {{Paparazzi}}, especially the {{Jerkass}} ones.
17** In ''The Perilous Romance of Swans'' her hatred of paparazzi is regarded the stuff of legends. When a few reporters go after an already-stressed Gosling and send him into an emotional breakdown, a furious Twilight locks all the ponies in with her and [[ShamingTheMob proceeds to lecture them on good conduct and manners]], with the room spelled to prevent anyone from going in or out.
18** ''Down with the Pastryarchy'' has her hit the RageBreakingPoint after a {{Jerkass}} pegasus reporter accuses her of tyranny and [[FantasticRacism violently shoves Seville out of the way to make room for a "real reporter"]]. The result is a gigantic version of "Rapidash Twilight" seen in the canon show.
19* BloodMagic: Has to bleed to connect to the Book's power after ascending. Though like all liquids in the Castle of Souls, it's ink.
20* CharacterDevelopment: As always, like in canon.
21** She was forced to go through this in ''FanFic/{{Ink}}''; her own arrogance led to her plan failing and many Stiff Upper Lip died in a SenselessSacrifice to prevent Belladonna from going after Sumac, Pebble, and Moon Rose. The Castle made her face her own mistakes and learn not to abuse her new power as the Librarian of Souls in order to replace the Nameless One.
22** In ''FanFic/DownWithThePastryarchy'', she initially spends her time being blissfully oblivious to the struggles and tribalism Earth ponies face in general, only to slowly find herself dragged into it by her friends, all who are Earth ponies. And after getting completely piss-drunk ([[TamperingWithFoodAndDrink thanks to Pinkie drugging her mead]]), she causes a scandal by going on an epic bender... which was done per Celestia's instructions in order to teach Twilight how to deal with ponies who absolutely hate her.
23* ClusterFBomb: Her IAmTheNoun speech below is laden with F-words.
24* ComfortFood: After learning [[DeadlyGas what happened to Boomer's family]] in ''FanFic/EnterTheDragon'', Twilight and Spike decide it's time to cope by eating ice cream.
25* CoolBigSis: Twilight is this for Spike, mixed with GoodParents, as she raised him entirely on her own.
26* ADayInTheLimelight: ''FanFic/EnterTheDragon'' focuses on her relationship dynamic with Spike.
27* ADogAteMyHomework: Twilight once had her homework eaten by Spike, and [[CassandraTruth tried telling Princess Celestia about it]]. She only got detention for her troubles.
28* DrillSergeantNasty: In ''FanFic/FoalsittingFollies'', Twilight is forced to act like one so she could properly punish Radiance for beating up Nuance. She doesn't like it and hopes it'll be a temporary measure, but she sees it as necessary.
29* EndearinglyDorky: She's largely outgrown it around most of the main characters, but Celestia remembers, and loves her for it.
30* {{Familiar}}: Owlowiscious is her familiar.
31* ForScience: Her entire reasoning why she decided to study Sumac's [[SuperEmpowering sorcerous symbiotic abilities]] in ''Fanfic/PrincessTwilightSparkleAndTheSorcerousSymbiosis'' - she wanted to study what it does for individual ponies. Of course, she and her friends end up getting reckless, alerting Celestia to their activities and causing her to put an end to the experiments for Sumac's sake.
32* GoodParents: Twilight raised Spike like a mother, loving and caring for him like her own son, though some CoolBigSis elements are thrown into the mix. She's the reason why Spike had a greater degree of compassion and empathy compared to [[{{Jerkass}} other dragons]].
33* IAmTheNoun: Mixed with ClusterFBomb in ''FanFic/{{Ink}}'', while dealing with an very uncooperative BackgroundMagicField:
34--> '''Twilight Sparkle''': I AM TWILIGHT FRONKING SPARKLE, THE ELEMENT OF FRONKING MAGIC! I DON’T FRONKING CAST MAGIC, I AM FRONKING MAGIC!
35* MamaBear: In ''FanFic/FoalsittingFollies'', Twilight is ''furious'' when she finds Radiance viciously beating up Nuance, with a crying Corbie futilely trying to make him stop. She proceeds to send Radiance to his room and deny him the privilege of feeling the sunrise as punishment.
36* MundaneUtility: After she begins bleeding ink, she'll occasionally pluck her own feathers for use as quills, as they come with a little ink.
37* MustHaveCaffeine: While studying the lantern, she requests and is provided an enormous mug of tea.
38* MyGodWhatHaveIDone: In ''The Weed'', she was unknowingly subjected to Tarnish's HatePlague magic when she banished him away from Ponyville (to his credit, he didn't know either at the time). When the banishment is lifted and Tarnish comes back, Twilight apologizes for kicking him out when she should've done something to help him instead.
39* NeverMyFault: In ''FanFic/{{Ink}}'', she didn't want to believe that her plans failing and a majority of Stiff Upper Lip dying was due to her own arrogance.
40* OneManArmy: As seen in ''Fanfic/StinkbugTheUnwanted'', Twilight vs. an army of harpies. [[CurbStompBattle No contest]].
41* PhysicalGod: Goes with being an Alicorn Princess of Friendship, and eventually the Librarian of Souls.
42* {{Pride}}: Suffered a bout of this as revealed in the Manehattan {{Flashback}} in ''FanFic/{{Ink}}'', which led to a majority of Stiff Upper Lip dying in a SenselessSacrifice when her plan failed. Part of ascending to replace the Nameless One was to face her own mistakes.
43* ReasonableAuthorityFigure: When not under an outside influence, like Tarnish's HatePlague magic.
44* RewritingReality: Gains the power to rewrite ponies' destiny after ascending in ''FanFic/{{Ink}}''. In ''FanFic/FoalsittingFollies'', Twilight Sparkle considers doing this to the Royal Brood (Corbie, Radiance, and Nuance) so they could have happier lives and be better behaved, but ultimately decides against it.
45* RougeAnglesOfSatin: Apparently as a filly, she made a badly-written letter that began with "Deer Celestia". It's kept in Celestia's castle, along with a statue depicting a deer version of Celestia in the spirit of the letter.
46* RoyalsWhoActuallyDoSomething: Takes a direct hand in running Ponyville, is headmistress of a school for gifted foals which is focused on in a few stories, regularly does experiments with magic and science, and occasionally goes dungeon-delving.
47* {{Seers}}: Has the power to look into ponies' futures after ascending to become the Librarian of Souls in ''FanFic/{{Ink}}''.
48* ShamingTheMob: Sadly done offscreen in ''The Perilous Romance of Swans''; after Gosling, who was already under great stress, is sent into a breakdown by {{Paparazzi}}, a furious Twilight locks all the journalists into one room with her so she could lecture them on good behavior and conduct.
49* StatingTheSimpleSolution: Does this in ''FanFic/WhateverWayTheWindTakesYou''. Gloomy could have just left Ponyville if she wanted an adventure, but no, she wanted to get banished like Tarnish was.
50* TranquilFury
51* WillTheyOrWontThey: Despite her resolve at the end of ''FanFic/PrincessTwilightSparkleAndTheQuesadillaConquest'', she spends quite a while in this state with Seville. It ends when she drunkenly marries both Seville and Pinkie Pie in ''Down with the Pastryarchy''.
52* YouCantGoHomeAgain: Invoked and enforced, since as a Princess, Twilight Sparkle has the power to banish anyone from Ponyville, provided there's good reason.
53** This happened Tarnish after his WildMagic wreaked havoc on Ponyville, leaving him resentful of how she and her friends weren't punished for doing the same thing. To be fair, his HatePlague magic influenced Twilight's decisions, and she's truly sorry for it. She later lifts the banishment and allows Tarnish to come home again, but still makes him stay outside of Ponyville's borders for everyone's safety. And once she learns what Tarnish's talent is, she classifies him as a "type 5 thaumaturgical hazard"[[note]]Poison Joke flowers are designed to purify magic, but are rather dangerous to ponies[[/note]] and lets him enter Ponyville on the condition that he be responsible for himself. Tarnish forgives Twilight for the banishment and admits being banished was the best thing that happened to him.
54** This also happened to Gloomy August in ''FanFic/WhateverWayTheWindTakesYou'' after Gloomy makes a cloud rain on her. Twilight banishes her until she makes a public apology, [[{{Unishment}} which was exactly what Gloomy was hoping for]].
55[[/folder]]
56
57[[folder:Trixie Lulamoon]]
58A wandering entertainer, she takes in Sumac when he needs it, and when he is enrolled in Twilight's school, she is convinced to stay.
59----
60* AffectionateNickname: Calls Sumac "Kiddo".
61* BerserkButton: Bullies, [[TheAtoner due to guilt for her own past]].
62* TheChainOfHarm: Due to her mother's abuse, which was in turn influenced by Trixie's deceased grandfather, Trixie had the potential to take advantage of young Sumac and dump him when his usefulness was up. But she ended up breaking the chain when she grew genuinely fond of Sumac, and eventually became one of his three adoptive mothers (with Twinkleshine and Lemon Hearts).
63* DentedIron: The long years of travelling have not been kind to Trixie, with the leg injury received from her encounter with the Diamond Dogs in Fanfic/VenenumIocus being particularly troublesome.
64* DisappearedDad: Didn't know who her father was until the events of ''FanFic/PrincessTwilightSparklesSchoolForFantasticFoals''.
65* {{Fireballs}}: Rather proud of her facility with the fireball spell.
66* HeroicBastard: The daughter of Night Light through Dandy Lion, making her the half-sister of Twilight Sparkle and Shining Armor.
67* TheIllusionist: Very good at both the theoretical and practical aspects of illusion magic, making her invaluable in bypassing Castle Midnight's defences.
68* {{Irony}}: While recovering from the Diamond Dog attack, she states categorically that she will never have "any bratty foals". At this point, she's not far off adopting Sumac Apple, as shown in her [[FanFic/TrixieLulamoonAndTheHorrendousHypothesis next major appearance]].[[note]]To be fair, Sumac certainly isn't "bratty".[[/note]]
69* KillOneOthersGetStronger: She gets stronger as the other members of her family die, due to shared access to a proprietary magic frequency.
70* MadLibsCatchphrase: "The X and Y Trixie" (as in "The Great and Powerful Trixie" with the precise adjectives depending on her mood at the time).
71* MamaBear: And not just for Sumac, her adoptive son; when Cinnamon Fire is being attacked, she intervenes with just as much fury, laying his attacker low with a [[ImprovisedWeapon postbox]].
72* OnlyInItForTheMoney: The original reason she took in Sumac, but she grows to love him.
73* {{Polyamory}}: Is in a healthy and loving three-way relationship with Lemon Hearts and Twinkleshine. The three of them are honorary "mothers" of Sumac.
74* RescueRomance: Had a crush on Tarnish for a while.
75* {{Squick}}: In ''FanFic/MareDoWell'', this was her reaction to Rainbow Dash's description of a group of {{Mooks}} puking all over the floor from the stench of Sumac's stink bombs, as well as how her eye got injured.
76* StuffBlowingUp: Apparently has a significant facility for pyrotechnics.
77* ThirdPersonPerson: Retains this behavioral tic from her canon self. While she mostly got over it, she regresses back whenever she's going through emotional distress, or feeling quite confident.
78[[/folder]]
79
80[[folder:Sumac Apple Lulamoon]]
81Trixie's adopted son, after his father and mother don't want him. Also a sorcerer, making him very valuable to everyone.
82----
83* AlienBlood: After his encounter with The Nameless One, he now bleeds ink rather than blood.
84* TheApprentice: To Vinyl Scratch.
85* BadassAdorable: A young colt, and definitely badass.
86* BadassBookworm: Very young, but incredibly intelligent, capable, and well-learned.
87* BadPowersGoodPeople: Sumac has a kind of magic that allows him to talk people into doing anything for him, implied or not. This was inherited his father, Flam Apple, who used his ability for nefarious, self-serving means. Naturally, this made Sumac careful about what he says, since he doesn't want people to think he forced them to obey him.
88* BarrierWarrior: By ''FanFic/{{Ink}}'', he's surpassed in protective magic only by Shining Armor.
89* BigEater: While still growing. Justified, since magic in the Weedverse is CastFromCalories.
90* BlindWithoutEm: His vision staggers greatly without a good subscription. Unfortunately, Trixie can't afford to get him glasses. Fortunately, Pebble notices and tells Applejack.
91* BornLucky: Inherited the magic of "Grift" off his father's side, making him near impossible to beat in games of chance.
92* ChivalrousPervert: He has a (completely deserved) reputation around Ponyville, especially during his [[HormoneAddledTeenager teenage years]]. However, unlike his criminal father, who took advantage of a mare and dumped her, Sumac is respectful towards those he flirts with, and has a steady relationship with Pebble and Silver Lining.
93* ChubbyChaser: He's attracted to Pebble Pie, who's somewhat chubby but sees herself as grossly obese. He also marries Silver Lining, also on the plump side.
94* CoolShades: Tea shades, specifically.
95* DidWeJustHaveTeaWithCthulhu: Makes a habit of this, befriending both [[RealityWarper Discord]] and [[TheGrimReaper Pale]].
96* DisappearedDad: Flam Apple was arrested not long after Sumac was born.
97* DitzyGenius: Smart enough to invent a wide array of flying devices. Dumb enough to test them on himself first.
98* DueToTheDead: Will clean up graves that no-one else cares about. In ''FanFic/WhenLifeGivesYouLemons'', he also planted apple trees for the stillborn foals Trixie, Lemon Hearts, and Twinkleshine tried having (they would've been Sumac's siblings).
99* TheFool: While recovering from Zap Apple Jam.
100* GadgeteerGenius: He's very talented with building machines, as stated in the MrFixIt trope. In ''FanFic/MareDoWell'', he was responsible for Rainbow Dash's stink bombs.
101* GenerationXerox: Sumac, a unicorn colt, falls in love with Pebble, a Stone pony. Tarnish and Maud did the same thing in ''FanFic/TheWeed'', though they were older when it happened.
102* GlassesAreSexy: Several characters comment that his glasses make him more handsome.
103* HappilyAdopted: Very much so, and considers Trixie, Twinkleshine and Lemon Hearts his real mothers.
104* HatesBaths: Like most children. It's something of a RunningGag, with him considering any pony who makes him take a bath to have "betrayed" him.
105* HormoneAddledTeenager: A not insignificant portion of the stories occur during his adolescence. He has a reputation around Ponyville.
106* HumbleGoal: Despite his power, and later ascension to alicornhood, all he really wants is to be a mortician.
107* HurricaneOfPuns: Subjects poor Twilight to a bunch of fruit-related jokes in ''Fanfic/PrincessTwilightSparkleAndTheSorcerousSymbiosis'', much the mortification of those present. Then [[NotSoAboveItAll Olive]] joins in.
108--> '''Olive:''' Ladies and gentlecolts, the heir ap-pear-ent to Lulamoon Hollow!
109* IJustWantToBeNormal: Has ambitions of being an undertaker, and really doesn't want to become involved in the war coming to Equestria. His powers working on speech also causes him problems with relationships, because arguably, any time he talks to someone he could compromise their free will without meaning to, something he doesn't want to do.
110* LikeFatherUnlikeSon: Sumac is a wholly different pony from his conman of a father, Flam Apple. His father's reputation understandably leaves him feeling very insecure at times.
111* LivingMacGuffin: A young unicorn, and later alicorn colt with sorcerous abilities that can empower anyone he affects, boosting their magic to the point of becoming super versions of themselves. This subjects him to a lot of kidnapping attempts ([[BigDamnHeroes one of them was interrupted by Celestia wanting to give him her slightly belated birthday wishes]]), as well as making him the central point of Twilight's experiments. Celestia, naturally, fears for his safety since his magic has the potential to be abused.
112* LoveHurts: With Olive's enrollment in the [[PraetorianGuard Immortal Solars]], both Sumac and Pebble have come to experience this.
113* MagicEnhancement: Sumac is the living version of this; through a [[SuperEmpowering magical symbiosis]], Sumac can empower ponies until they're basically super versions of themselves. Rainbow Dash became a supernatural being capable of breaking sound barriers, while Sunburst became a walking beacon of light which turns him into death incarnate for undead creatures (which are, apparently, allergic to sunlight). Celestia fears Sumac's ability will be used for evil or shady purposes, and makes Twilight promises that she will never let Sumac use his magical symbiosis except for emergencies.
114* MarryThemAll: Despite some doubts in ''Fanfic/CrystalCotillion'', he does end up (at least partially) taking this option, definitely marrying at least Pebble and Silver Lining. He does not marry Olive, though. [[PraetorianGuard She chooses a different path]].
115* MoreThanMindControl: His powers can work like this. Given enough time, he can talk anyone into anything.
116* MrFixIt: Inherited from his father, Flam.
117* NightmareFetishist: Likes hanging out in graveyards, and has an ambition of being an mortician.
118* OneTrueLove: Pebble is this for him, much like how Tarnish was for Maud. He may have several lifemates, but Pebble will always be his soulmate.
119* SuperEmpowering: A sorcerer, with his powers activated by Zap Apple Jam, boosting the magic of everyone in range to the point of giving them new magical abilities. For example, an empowered Rainbow Dash goes so fast [[RealityWarper she breaks reality]] (notably, these breaks are plaid, the same pattern as Discord's magic), Sunburst becomes a walking beacon of light that's good against undead, and both Starlight and Moondancer explode things upon contact. Since this magical symbiosis can empower ''anyone'', Celestia fears Sumac might be exploited by the wrong people, and chews out Twilight and her friends when they go too far with their experiments.
120* SuperIntelligence: While under the influence of Zap Apple Jam. Unfortunately, he pays for it later. When with Twilight Sparkle under the Sorcerous Symbiosis, he gives this effect to her.
121* TouchedByVorlons: Although he's not without power beforehand, he's definitely changed by his meeting with the Nameless One. Aside from the obvious results (ascending to Alicornhood), he also gains AlienBlood and a sense for the Ink[[note]]The medium of destiny[[/note]], a knack he often uses to spend time with those who will soon die.
122[[/folder]]
123
124[[folder:Pebble Pie]]
125The eldest daughter of Tarnish and Maud, conceived at the end of ''Fanfic/VenenumIocus''.
126----
127* BecauseYouWereNiceToMe: Much like her mother's relationship with her father, she has this sort of loyalty to Sumac.
128* BrutalHonesty: Employs this as a weapon, with a generous dash of DeadpanSnarker. It's also something she values in others, because if someone's willing to lie that you [[WeightWoe aren't fat]], how can you be certain when they say they love you?
129* CompetitionFreak: She intends to be the best at anything she sets out to do.
130* CuteBruiser
131* DaddysGirl: Adores Tarnish, her father.
132* DeadpanSnarker: She gets it from her mother. One prime example was in ''FanFic/FoalsittingFollies'', where she verbally cuts down a BurgerFool for poking fun at Twilight's BigEater tendencies.
133* EmbarrassinglyPainfulSunburn: Like her mother, she burns easily.
134* FoolishSiblingResponsibleSibling: The Responsible to her little brother Sly's Foolish.
135* GenerationXerox: {{Subverted}}. Despite appearances, Pebble psychologically functions very differently to her mother, which causes problems when ponies don't realize that. However, falling in love with unicorns (Sumac, Tarnish) is one thing she and her mother had in common.
136* ItsAllAboutMe: Has a mild case of this at the beginning of ''FanFic/PrincessTwilightSparklesSchoolForFantasticFoals'', believing that her relationship with her parents is more important than their relationship with each other, or with any other children they may have.
137* LiteralMinded: Not massively so, but she tends to miss metaphors.
138* LoveHurts: With Olive's enrollment in the [[PraetorianGuard Immortal Solars]], both Pebble and Sumac have come to experience this.
139* TheMagnificent: Is known as "The Dominator" amongst the nobility for her tendency to retain a (deserved) position atop the leaderboard.
140* MasterOfAll: Defied; she didn't want to become an Alicorn like her friend Sumac because it meant having to divide her attention to all three skillsets, whereas being a Stone pony allows her to focus on one.
141* MysticalPregnancy: The result of one. She was conceived as part of destroying the Crown of Corruption, and is far more magically strange than even her mother.
142* OffScreenTeleportation: Pebble jaunts [[ScrewThisImOuttaHere herself and Sumac]] in ''FanFic/FoalsittingFollies'' out of Twilight Sparkle's castle the moment she hears [[BrattyHalfPint Nuance]] is coming over.
143* ThePlan: Due to her competitive streak, she has many plans on how to achieve the best of everything she does, including helping her friends.
144* TheReasonYouSuckSpeech: Twice to Radiance, in ''FanFic/FoalsittingFollies''.
145** She gives her first one to Radiance about how much of a bully he's being to Nuance, after he demeans Nuance for wanting to go home. It was so savage that she enrages Radiance, and Twilight had to ask her to stop.
146** The second one comes after she uses the Perspective Shift Stick on herself and ends up seeing Radiance's perspective on things. She was so appalled by his lack of empathy that she basically tells Radiance "YouMakeMeSick".
147* ScrewThisImOuttaHere: She [[OffScreenTeleportation jaunts]] herself and Sumac out of Twlight's castle to escape a potential encounter with Nuance.
148* SiblingsWanted: {{Inverted}}; she definitely doesn't want siblings, and her parents put it off for a long time out of deference to that.
149* TheStoic: But in a different way to her mother, which throws Pinkie off.
150* SupremeChef: Has aspirations in this direction, and (if her current efforts are any indication) is well on the way.
151* SuperStrength: A stone pony, like her mother.
152* SympathyForTheDevil: In ''FanFic/FoalsittingFollies'', she ends up sympathizing with [[BrattyHalfPint Nuance]] when she witnesses a bit of Radiance's bullying. Later, when she uses the Perspective Shift Stick on herself to see things from Radiance's perspective, she is ''disgusted'' by Radiance's lack of remorse.
153* WeightWoe: She's slightly chubbier than average, but tends to see herself as grossly fat. [[ChubbyChaser Sumac]] still thinks she's attractive.
154* YouMakeMeSick: In ''FanFic/FoalsittingFollies'', Pebble spits this out at Radiance in regards to his violent bullying of Nuance and his lack of remorse and guilt for his actions after she uses the Perspective Shift Stick on him.
155-->'''Pebble''': As bad as Nuance is, Radiance, you are the worst. At least Nuance secretly feels ashamed and guilty... but you... you were ''heartless''. Remorseless. You disgust me.]]

157
158[[folder:Boomer]]
159!!'''First Appearance''': ''FanFic/EnterTheDragon'' (as an egg)
160
161A orphaned dragon egg that Tarnish and Maud rescued from pony looters. Twilight and Spike later decided to give her to Sumac so he could take care of her, and has been a mainstay in the gang ever since.
162----
163* BigEater: Is usually either sleeping or eating.
164* DarkAndTroubledPast: Boomer lost her family to pony looters, who gassed her entire family of pygmy dragons to death so they could steal their treasure hoard. Boomer was the only survivor. It was so horrifying that it made Spike and Twilight Sparkle [[ComfortFood want to chow on ice cream]] to cope with the discovery.
165* DragonHoard: Her hoarding instincts manifest as her stealing Sumac's model airships, at least during her adolescence. This trope was also the reason why her family was killed - the ponies responsible thought there was treasure in their nest.
166* EarlyBirdCameo: She makes her first appearance as a late-blooming dragon egg in ''FanFic/EnterTheDragon''.
167* ExtremeOmnivore: Eats bugs, sandwiches, biscuits, [[TrademarkFavoriteFood gemstones]]...
168* HeadPet: To Sumac. Averted once she grows too big to be one.
169* KnightTemplarBigBrother: {{Inverted}}, she's protective of her big brother Sumac, due to dragon instincts.
170* ParentalAbandonment: Boomer's family of pygmy dragons, parents and siblings included, was murdered by a group of pony looters who gassed them to death so they could have their supposed treasure hoard for themselves.
171* PokemonSpeak: For a while, although she outgrows it.
172* {{Sleepyhead}}: While young; she spends a lot of time asleep.
173* SoleSurvivor: Boomer was the only egg left after a DeadlyGas attack that killed her parents and siblings.
174* SolidGoldPoop: To a colt, explosive poop is pretty valuable. To an alchemist, it's even more so.
175* TrademarkFavouriteFood: Gemstones, just like Spike.
176* UndyingLoyalty: Part of being a dragon.
177[[/folder]]
178
179[[folder:Pinkie Pie]]
180!!'''First Appearance''': ''FanFic/TheWeed''
181
182Element of Laughter, and younger sister of Maud Pie.
183----
184* ArchEnemy: Considers earning one to be an occasion worth of a party.
185* BewareTheSillyOnes: During ''Fanfic/PrincessTwilightSparklesSchoolForFantasticFoals'', she apparently used explosives she cooked up in the Cake's kitchen. The result demolished a building.
186-->'''Pinkie Pie:''' Coffee creamer is super flammable and so are harpies.
187* TheCloudcuckoolanderWasRight: Occasionally, much to her surprise.
188* EasilyForgiven: In ''Down with the Pastryarchy'', Twilight forgives her for getting her piss-drunk, drugging her drinks, and making her create a huge scandal on Celestia's orders, because it'd be hypocritical of her to hate her friend but not Celestia. It also made her realize that regardless of the ramifications of the incident, she was married to the two best ponies one could ask for.
189* FirstGrayHair: Talks about finding it in ''Chubble-Bubblegum''.
190* InnocentlyInsensitive: In ''FanFic/TheWeed'', she laughs at Maud and Tarnish's FirstKiss, and Maud's resulting curly hairdo. After Marble (quietly) [[CallingTheOldManOut scolds her and the others for their behavior]], she realizes just how mean she was to Maud, and tries to make it up to her sister.
191* MomentKiller: She'd probably be less prone to this if she wasn't such an enthusiastic ShipperOnDeck.
192* MyGodWhatHaveIDone: Realizes how mean she was after she and Limestone get called by Marble for laughing at Maud and Tarnish during their FirstKiss.
193* OffscreenTeleportation: "Jaunting", something she's particularly talented in.
194* StoutStrength: According to Maud, despite her soft look, she's still very strong.
195* TamperingWithFoodAndDrink: Does this to Twilight in ''FanFic/DownWithThePastryarchy''; as per orders from Celestia, she drugs Twilight's mead with a special potion that'll make her not only piss-drunk, but extroverted so she'll end up creating a huge scandal, all to teach Twilight a lesson on dealing with ponies who absolutely hate her. [[MyGodWhatHaveIDone Pinkie immensely regrets it]], and spends several chapters wallowing in a severe HeroicBSOD that leaves her coat color muted and curly hair strait.
196* WeightWoe: Has some issues with her weight, much like Pebble. This is the focus of ''Chubble-Bubblegum''.
197* WhatTheHellHero: On the receiving end, twice.
198** First, she [[ShamingTheMob as well as her entire family]] gets called out by her sister Marble for humiliating Maud and Tarnish during their FirstKiss. It leads to a MyGodWhatHaveIDone moment.
199** Later, when she talks to Maud, Maud calls her out on making her feel like she was part of a freak show. Pinkie apologizes, and they reconcile.

202[[folder:Pinny Lane]]
203!!'''First Appearance''': ''FanFic/TheWeed''
204
205A tall unicorn mare, and Tarnish's birth mother. she is encouraged to re-enter his life by the Pies.
206----

211* ParentalNeglect: To Tarnish, partly because of his HatePlague effect. She did try to get better after Tarnish left, but the doctors who didn't know about Tarnish's HatePlague suggested her problems were caused by [[WhyCouldntYouBeDifferent something else]]. After she's no longer getting regular exposure, and Tarnish begins taking his [[PowerLimiter tea]], she gets a lot better.
212* UnskilledButStrong: Her telekinesis is powerful but rather clumsy.
213* WhyCouldntYouBeDifferent: Subverted with Tarnish; Pinny admits she wanted a filly who looked just like her, and when she unknowingly started being affected by his HatePlague magic, doctors suggested that this trope was the source of her behavior. That said, she clearly expresses that she loves Tarnish and couldn't be any prouder of her son.
