Twilight Sparkle

Twilight Sparkle is a deuteragonist in Animation Acres.

Creation and original origins
Twilight Sparkle was the main protagonist in the animated series My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic, the fourth generation of the My Little Pony franchise developed by Lauren Faust.

At the beginning of the series, she and Spike, her best friend and assistant, move from Canterlot to The Golden Oak Library in Ponyville to study the magic of friendship, and there, she also becomes the Element of Magic, one of the Elements of Harmony. When creating Twilight, Faust drew inspirations of the character's personality from her own mother. In early concepts, she was named 'Twilight Twinkle' and just 'Twilight'. Lauren Faust also drew inspiration from her mother for Twilight's personality.

Andrea Libman originally auditioned for Twilight's voice. But when Tara Strong auditioned, Faust felt that Strong was perfect as the role.

Animation Acres
She is the adopted mother of Spike, whom she found as an abandoned egg and raised him since. Much like the original show, she studies in magic, but she also obtains a journal that was once written by a powerful queen. Her abilities in magic are a bit more expanded here, such as having the ability to morph into different animals. She cares very deeply for Spike, not caring if he isn't a unicorn like her, loving him just the way he is. She is also the owner of Tweety and Sylveter. While angered with Sylvester's attempts to eat Tweety, still loves both of her pets very much. She also shows a strong relationship with Barbara, just as much as Spike shows a strong relationship with Timmy.
