Twilight Foil Celebration Thread
So I ran out of ideas for threads and came up with this at the last moment soooo. . ..
Why not celebrate the foils of our favorite ascended Alicorn Princess? The characters that we compare our main character to in terms of personality, power, and their initial ignorance of friendship.
The Great and Powerful Trixie has ever been the most popular foil to Twilight Sparkle, first come first serve and all that,and she never ceases to amaze and wow us in her appearences.
First student of Equestria, likely was being raised to become an Alicorn or be the Element of Magic, Sunset Shimmer was a prideful bully who sought to get revenge on Celestia for casting her out. . .and then over the course of several movies, shorts, and specials turns out to become best pony. She is perhaps the most fleshed out foil of Twilight Sparkle.
Starlight Glimmer is another such pony who can be described as a bit of a middle ground between Trixie and Sunset in that she is one of the most powerful creatures in the show and is the only one that Twilight did not ultimately beat . . rather Twilight offered a open hoof in friendship and so began Starlight's seasons long journey to become a better pony herself.
There is also Moondancer but who really cares about her. . . just kidding. Honestly Moondancer differs from the rest of the Twilight Foils in that she is the most down to earth and . . . .understandable of her counterparts. She and her situation is very grounded in reality and how one's actions can harm another even without your knowing it.
. . .Does Tempest count as a foil? Or Sci-Twi? Like yes Sci-Twi is a direct counterpart of Twilight but she's kind of her own person with very disparate and personal fears and dreams? She's more of a foil to Sunset Shimmer then Princess Twilight.
There is also Twiscream but we all know what she was about.
So what have you? Do you want to celebrate Twilight's foils with me? Who is your favorite of the foils and why do you appreciate them so much? And how do you feel about the rest? Did I miss any that you can think of? Can you think of anything to talk about at all inr egards to these great ponies and characters?
