done in SAI.

I decided to make refsheets for three characters of mine. They were created to show how terrible the life and traditions in mlp-world can be.







Name: Sunshine Brook.

Nicknames: "Sunny", "Shine"; after getting her cutiemark "Changeling".



Age: young adult

Gender: Mare.

Dame: Opaque Gold Brook.

Sire: Tervinus Brook.

Siblings: Salt Brine (filly), Tervinus Jun. (youngest, colt)







Short story: Sunshine belongs to the old and prosperous family, that established the whole goldmine industry in Equestria. They started as mere diggers many generations ago. Brooks aquired quite an influence for an Earth Pony family. They are invited to the Royal Court and often seen in Canterlot.

Sunshine is the eldest child in the dynasty. She was supposed to be an heir and bring her family even more glory and money. Sunny was trying very hard to meet her parents and society demands. And, actually all was well, until she finally get her cutiemark.





Brook always get their cutiemark later than others. They may be bareblank until reaching puberty or even some years later. Cutiemarks in their family was usually linked with some talent on finding gold, craft of jewelry or trade. So having a changeling head on her blank was quite a shock for young mare, her family and their friends.

When did it appear? Was she abducted by changelings and escaped? No. Nothing really strange or dangerous happened. She was playing with her siblings in hide and seek. It was her sister who told her about " a monster on her back."





The family was in despair. Sunshine was ashamed of herself. After some talks with doctors and sorcerers... they forgot about her. "Nothing can change the cutiemark" was their last word. In that moment the Sun ceased to shine for her. Her family decided to broke her engagement with the heir of another rich dynasty. She was supposed to return the token of her loved one's proposal -- the violet jewel. Sunshine rejected. She was truly in love, she couldn't believe in it. She begged and begged, until she decided to purge her cutiemark out by white-hot golden ingot from her father's workshop.



Her family decided that she had gone mad. Sunshine was supposed to be sent to their country house and never to return to Canterlot.







Suffering from terror, betrayal, not capable to understand her parents and her fiance's decision, she run away.







Sunshine stole her stone and her favourite green cloak. She was expecting to be followed and tracked down... but no one came. Sometime later, when the dread image of changeling returned back with her fur, she learned that her family declared her dead. Death by accident or something like that.





Later she learned about Starlight Glimmer and traveled to find her, but she came too late. That day she hated the government. Who gave them the right to decide? She became depressed and mentally ill.







Current status: travels alone, avoids talking to other pony until it is absolutely necessary. She developed the idea that her cutiemark means she has to be eaten by changelings. In her deeply dark state she searches for them to end her life. Deep in her heart she still loves that colt.
