ITT we try to give personalities and depth to some background ponies.
Who is this mare? What does she do? What's her deal?
>>

Her name is Twine, and she's a pony who enjoys crocheting and embroidery. Completely unrelated to her cutie mark, which is a ball of yarn with two blue crossed needles underneath it, she is engaged in some silly mare behavior.

This is Fairy Fluff. She specializes in working with very low-density, fragile clouds. Most other pegasi aren't gentle enough with their hooves and will tend to break such clouds. I've heard she crafts excellent cloud curtains! Her favorite foods are souffles and meringue.

Well, hey! I wrote some stuff for another thread not too long ago. Guess I'll repost...

Rain E. Daze wonders if it's her near-fetishistic obsession with thin-film interference that leads to her never getting invited to many social gatherings, but the reality is that no one has the heart to tell her that she exudes an unbearably strong smell of oil that she's gone nose-blind to.

Sunny Crisps (previously known as Sunny Chips) actually got her cutie mark from conceptualizing Equestria's first seasoned chips after she thought it was dumb they didn't already come with flavor in them.

She would later go on to sell off the rights without reading the fine print and nowadays reaps none of the royalties from her cheese & onion chips, opting instead to build a legal defense for selling cheese & onion "crisps".

Golden Moonlight has been very superstitious since foalhood after breaking the same leg slipping on an unfortunately placed orange peel and falling down 16 feet of stairs for the third time.

To this day, she's still trying to figure out what exactly angers the citrus spirits, oblivious to the fact that she just had very mean bullies.

73 KB PNG
Orange Box has a PhD in theoretical physics, and dreams of saving up enough bits to own her very own scientific research facility where she can put her breakthroughs in both instantaneous and interdimensional travel to practice.

Those dreams are delayed by her lack of study on any scientific subjects, her PhD being bought from the back of a shower curtain store, and her money being constantly spent on gaudy hats she prances around with to intentionally spite others. She has a preference for the ones that come in lime green.

Sugar Apple made a game out of seeing how many bottles of rainbow she can sneak out of the weather factory so she can boast to her friends about it.

Turns out it's quite a lot, and now she has a couple dozen gallons of pure rainbow sitting in her house that she's too afraid to mess with.

And a new one for good measure.

No one can pin down who exactly Bluebird Happiness is, as she is constantly- and abruptly- switching attitudes. One week she is moody, then bubbly, then a crabby, then, one time she just put on an offensive accent.

One time, she was enjoying a pool party with her friends before suddenly breaking down in tears over the cosmic hopelessness of the universe. She locked herself in her room for 12 straight days.

>Who is this mare? What does she do? What's her deal?
I actually wrote Junebug lore a few months ago. I'm gonna repost it and also add that she's friends with Carrot Top since those two get paired together quite a lot.

>She's not very social, having a relatively limited friend circle. Pretty introverted, but she's also a highly caring, extremely kind mare. Both of her love for gardening is shared by the Flower Trio, and she's also interested in entomology. Bitta Blues, Ponyville's local entomologist, is one of her best friends alongside the aforementioned trio, the ponies she has been best friends with since her foalhood. Carrot Top is her more recent friend with whom she became acquainted way past her foalhood, but it has resulted in a close relationship. Carrot likes Junebug's passion for growing tasty and beautiful flowers as well as her cooking skills, while Junebug thinks her friend's carrots are one of the tastiest things that ever existed.

>Junebug got her cutie mark at an early age. One warm summer day, she was gardening together with Roseluck and Bitta at the former's parents' garden. Initially, Rose struggled, and out of fear of disappointing her parents, her panic increased, making her also even more unfocused. Junebug noticed this and started consoling her friend, helping her out and telling her that she doesn't have to worry much, because sooner or later Rose will find her talent at something else. Having listened to Junebug, Rose breathed deeply, savoring the current moment. A ladybug gently landed on her snout, but the usually scaredy filly only giggled and then focused on her roses. The ladybug landed on Bitta, which was in turn distracted from the gardening as she was fascinated with insects since a very young age. In the meantime, Junebug made a really good job with her flowers, and had met a bumblebee, which she didn't hesitate to show to her friend while her flank was glowing as her cutie mark appeared. Around the same time, Rose and Bitta also go their own cutie marks.

>She loves gentle, calming music, the tunes if which she will often hum while gardening.

>She supports a healthy diet and doesn't let herself eat a lot of sweets, making her quite a rare guest at Pinkie's or Bon Bon's. Her diet mostly consists of salads of extreme variety and nice warm soups, and she's really good at making them. Rarely drinks anything that isn't tea or a simple water.

>She smells like pansies. Her coat is what you expect of a typical earth pony: not as soft as an average pegasus or unicorn coat, but also much softer than a horse's coat. Her milk has a savory, slightly sweet taste, comparable to sweet tomatos mixed with nuts and a bit of banana thrown in. Her marecum tastes like a mix of pansy and apricots. She's really proud of her nice, round plot, an achievement of her healthy lifestyle, her favorite sex positions being reverse cowgirl and doggy, which allow you admire her perfect mare plot.

dyewts?
>>
>>43524473
yes? The show itself calls differents types of ponies "tribes"
>>
>>43524477
https://poneponepone.org/?search=tribe
false. the show EXCLUSIVELY uses the word tribe to refer to the three literal tribes that unified to form equestria. once equestria was founded, the three tribes ceased to exist.
>>
>>43524531
In other words, the word tribe isn't even wrong, just somewhat anachronistic. Pedantic faggot.
>>
>>43524553
wrong again. the word tribe is not an ancient term for what kind of pony a pony is, it refers to distinct political entities. the fact that each tribe is comprised of only a single type of pony is entirely seperate to the fact that they're tribes. if a pegasus defected and joined the earth pony tribe, (and the earth pony tribe actually accepted them) they would be a part of the earth pony tribe, and not the pegasus tribe, even though they're obviously still a pegasus.
>>
>>43524571
they were not tribes-as-a-social-construct because they had complex political structures reminiscent of a developed society
Earth ponies, for example, were represented by a chancellor

the only reason their political entities might be "legally tribes" is if they had a similar situation to Indian "tribes" (i.e. larger political entity giving them this inaccurate classification)
>>
>>43524607
>the only reason their political entities might be "legally tribes" is if they had a similar situation to Indian "tribes" (i.e. larger political entity giving them this inaccurate classification)
you mean like modern equestrians telling their story over a thousand years after the fact?
but whether the word tribe is accurate or not, it is still the word the show uses for these entities.

Also, you are the first one to bring up the word "race".
>>

the show doesn't give one. it just uses "kind of pony" and "type of pony" interchangeably. (and very infrequently i might add). as for fanon ones, other than race, i think "breed" is cute.
