Mirage

Mirage is a very sweet character, she is the daughter of Fluttershy and Discord. She is the youngest of her friends at the age of 16. She is a lot like her mother personality wise, she is shy but caring and always wants to do what is right. During the series she is always questioning if Twilight and her friends are right. It leads to her telling Twilight that petrification is what got Equestria in the situation they are in now. She has a past with getting bullied a lot, not only because of her looks but also because she is the daughter of Discord. Equestria knows that Discord changed but they still sometimes treat him like a monster. Because of this they try to play Mirage as a villain all the time but in reality she is one of the sweetest ponies that Ponyville has ever met. Even though Mirage is quite similar to her mother she actually is closest to her father because of the stigma that both her and her father get. When she got bullied as a filly her mother tried to be there for her but she would tell her mother she doesn't know what it's like. Because of this her mother would get upset but not angry, her mother did know what it was like to get bullied but not because of her situation. Discord would see both of them upset and would try and be there for both of them. Usually Discord would succeed in cheering them both up but the thing about her father is he is over protective. Her father would go to the school and try to yell about how they aren't doing anything to protect his daughter. When the school still hadn't done anything about it he took matters into his own claws and started messing with Emerald Primose's family who happens to be Diamond Tiara's little sister. This honestly wouldn't really help with discord's image and it honestly caused Mirage and her father to get into an argument about how he is just proving them right. Mirage looks like both her mother and her father but also like her uncle and grandfather.

Mirage isn't extremely shy, she can talk to other ponies and creatures well, she gets more hopeful to talk to other creatures because she does better with non-ponies due to her past with bullying. She gets more persistent with people being their true selves especially with Apple Bolt. She was the first one to realize he was in his sister's shadow a lot and since then she has tried getting him away from his sister every so often. She cares about her friends a lot and doesn't want to see them get hurt but she also won't start a fight. She is a middleman a lot and this is the reason the story won't finish quickly because she is about as powerful as discord- but she is still learning her powers. She can be a little clumsy- she trips over her own claws sometimes but Apple Bolt is always there to pick her up. She doesn't realize how Apple Bolt feels about her; she herself also has feelings towards him but she believes because she isn't a fully pony that he doesn't think of her that way.
