  <INF> Description
>>> Twilight Sparkle, alternatively Twilight Zera, is part of a quadrupedal equine species under the My Little Pony franchise, specifically the fourth iteration (officially called "Generations"). Her hair and tail are a dark navy-blue color with one bright-magenta stripe and one deep-violet stripe. Her eyes a bright purple and she has a periwinkle/lavender fur coat.
>>> She holds the traits of both pegasus and unicorn, having two large wings on her sides and a tall horn on her head. They allow her to fly and cast spells respectively, a common trait among the rest of her world's leading species.

  <INF> Backstory
>>> In regards to canon events, Twilight has lived through the entirety of Friendship is Magic up to the near-end of Season 9. To comply with how she met Necro, there is no timeskip like one of the last episodes shows. Instead, she has fully become the next ruler of her homeland, Equestria, and it has only been roughly two years since.
>>> That said, her relevance to Kirb begins with him, even before Necro's existence; Twilight was frequently drawn with a caricature ("self-insert", if you will) of Kirb himself due to infatuation at a young age. As such, her relationship to Necro parallels Kirb's childhood crush on her, and led to Kirb wanting to integrate it into his canon in some way. Thus, Kirb played into a hypothetical, cartoony, future version of himself that connected with Equestria and brought Twilight to him.
>>> Mostly disregarding how Necro's life played out, Twilight was along for the ride as often as the others. She got to meet Kade on more than one occasion and participated in events Kirb usually used other characters for. For example, around the time "Kade V4" was being worked on, Twilight was undergoing a soft reboot too due to the events that got her & Kade there. The idea was eventually dropped and plans shifted elsewhere.

  <INF> Abilities
>>> Twilight's powers are almost entirely unchanged from her appearances and showcases in her cartoon. Every spell she's ever learned and/or cast in FiM carries over alongside better technique. Her abilities have grown the least as it's more of an "if it ain't broke, don't fix it" situation; she's already mastered it enough.
>>> In contrast, Twilight has picked up on how Kade, Chisk and Asriel utilize their magic and has tried to mimic the way they battle. She's made trips to The Underground to study SOUL Magic from its denizens, often bringing home pages of notes to study and practice after dark.

  <INF> Relationships
>>> With the acclaimed title of "Princess of Friendship", it's expected that she's gained many connections in her life. Similar to Chisk, Twilight likes finding opportunities to talk and looks for the good in others as much as possible.

  <DSC> ["KADE"] Second to her family, Twilight is fascinated by Kade's life and loves to ask him about the relationship between fiction and reality. She often intrigues him about the nature of being "fictional" and likes hearing about his old adventures, Kade describing all his different powers -- canon and defunct -- in greater detail. It's almost like he knows more than even we do... but, I digress.
  <DSC> ["KURSON"] Twilight relates to Kurson's choice of self-leadership, but she does her best to get him interacting with the rest of the group. She's gotten the most information out of him regarding his feelings towards his team, leading him to be more open to his friends. He thanks her for it.
  <DSC> ["ASRIEL"] Being the only other one in their group from an existing world, Twilight empathizes with Asriel's homesickness, sometimes wishing she was with her Equestria friends than The Primary Heroes. They like practicing magic with each other, sometimes getting Kade and Chisk involved.
  <DSC> ["NECRO"] As mentioned, Twilight and Necro have a loving relationship, eventually being able to marry once the time was right. Twilight had conflicting thoughts about the "Kade v. Necro" issue while it was relevant, but it's long since left her. She and Necro spend the most time together, usually at their home, acting sweet towards each other like couples do.

  <INF> Highlights
>>> One of Twilight's major highlights comes from the aforementioned "V4" upgrade for Kade: "Aethera", a Universe centered around a medieval-fantasy theme and owned by one of Kirb's friends, harbored Kade's life from late 2018 to mid-2020. Once the final story arc finished, its epilogue coated the world in light, capturing any and all residents and bringing them to a pure-white void. Twilight helped some of the heroes fight the final boss and was taken to the white void with Kade. Sometime after, part of Kade's SOUL (which was corrupted at this time) finally broke free and mutated into a beast that attacked the heroes. Twilight was struck by some of its magic and fell unconscious. While the other heroes were able to take the dark monster down and free Kade, Necro had to intervene to secure Twilight and Kade while the rest remained. This would be dealt with out of the narrative and just be implied to have wrapped up on its own.

  <INF> Miscellaneous
>>> Not a lot else can be described; Twilight has stayed mostly silent and has grown to have a larger role in her rebooted self's life. It's fascinating, however, how she carries just as much importance as Kade and became so distanced from her source material, Kirb creating his own version of her to work on, similar to Asriel. While Kirb's take -- rather, the timeline impacted by Necro -- on Equestria is still dormant, it's not impossible for it to be brought up in the future... even if it'd take another 2 or 3 years to get there.
