Description
Sunshine (TwilightXSunset)
A very thoughtful and determined young colt and local good boi. Sunshine is very studious just like both of his mothers. His magic skills are rather advanced for a kid his age but he’s not necessarily a prodigy. He struggles with anxiety but never outwardly expresses it. He’s very passionate about his goal to be a princess.
Overcast (RainbowXSoarin)
Despite her name Overcast is a very peppy and upbeat mare. She’s a natural athlete but just doesn’t apply herself. She lacks the competitive spirit it takes to do a lot of sports and would much rather help athletes than be one. However, her competitive side does come out when she’s rooting for her friends. Overcast is studying to be a physical trainer.
Geode Glitz (RarityXMaud)
Geode is the perfect mix of her parents having inherited the best aspects of their personalities. She’s cool, calm and collected like Maud, but still extremely sociable and sophisticated like Rarity. Her patience does have it’s limits and she takes out all her pent up rage on rocks while she’s mining. Geode is a unicorn but has permanently messed up her horn much to Rarity’s dismay. It hides under her bangs.
Anjou Apple (ApplejackXTroubleShoes)
Anjou is the sweetest pony you’ll ever meet. So sweet that others think that she’s a kiss up but really she just finds joy making others feel good. She’s a little clumsy, having never really grown into her body. She’s a small pony at heart and she struggles with her size. It’s the source of a lot of frustration for her. The only place where she doesn’t feel clumsy is in the kitchen. Just like everyone else in the Apply Family, Anjou is a fantastic cook. However, she specializes in pear oriented dishes. Applejack was a little mad at this because of her history of apple propaganda.
Parade Float (PinkieXPartyFavor)
Float from the outside seems just like his parents. Always happy and cheerful, but on the inside he’s a sad boy. He’s always unintentionally negative and a lot of his jokes are cries for help. Despite all this, he’s not a downer and all his energy makes him fun to be around. Don’t worry about his well being though. He has a lot of healthy outlets like planning for parties with mom and dad, having vent sessions with cousin Geo, and writing sad poetry (his pen name is Pity Party).
Flower Crown (FluttershyXTreeHugger)
Flower is and old soul. So quiet and gentle, not unlike her moms. She’s very much a free spirit and goes wherever the wind takes her. Literally. She’ll go flying sometimes and just…. floats. She goes missing for hours sometimes which freaks out Fluttershy but she always ends up a-ok. She’s the youngest in her friend group but she keeps up. Everyone goes to Geo to vent but they go to Flower to cool off and relax. She’s a bit of a late bloomer and hasn’t got her cutie mark yet. Her talent is aromatherapy and it’s quite obvious but she hasn’t realized it yet. Maybe someday? Oh yeah, she’s scared of animals.
Morning Star (CelestiaXDiscord)
Morning is probably the most powerful being in Equestria but despite this she’s really down to earth just like her mom. Her magic is extremely chaotic but she has perfect control over it. Morning was very sheltered as a child since Celestia and Discord knew she had the potential to be EXTREMELY dangerous (especially as a child). She spent most of her childhood at home at the castle or the realm of chaos learning how to control her power. Now that she does have control, she spends her days hanging out with her friends, exploring and living out the childhood she never had. She’s a curious one and that often leads her friends into danger but she manages to always get them out okay (save for some minor trauma).
Cicada Song (LunaXChrysalis)
Cicada is edgy and emo as hell. He’s in a perpetual identity crisis as a changeling. And not just a changeling. A changeling/pony mix. He prefers to keep to himself mostly because he feels like he’s too good for everything and everyone. Fortunately, Morning gets him out of the castle. He’s a really good singer.
Cinder (SpikeXEmber)
Cinder was born and raised in the Dragon Lands. He’s a bit of a troublemaker and quite sarcastic. He likes to act big and tough but he’s really a kind soul. He’s very interested in pony culture and likes to go visit whenever he can.

Same here.
Just disappointed that it’s been rebooted. I was fond of all the old characters.
Are you joking about her inactivity or did she recently say she’s axing this AU?
That’s how I felt in regards to those early background pony with Mane 6 ships. I didn’t really care for Pinkie/Pokey or AJ/Caramel either. (That being said, I don’t really care for AJ/Troubleshoes or Rarity/Maud either. But beggars can’t be choosers.)
I’m glad to hear Starlight/Trixie and Dove might be carried over onto this new Next Gen AU. She and Nidra were my two favorite characters of her old next gen characters (I liked Starburst and the draconies too but I honestly prefer her new Twilight and Spike offspring here so I don’t mind ajusting to these new guys all too much).
Edited
Yeah, but some of the ships were ones I liked too, and they’re gone. Actually just one, Flashlight, because fight me. I know it’s no juggernaut like the other Twilight ships, but it was one of my main draws to Kilala’s verse. I know there’s more to like with Kilala, but I’m not sure what the future holds.
I believe she said that part of the reasoning she dropped her old ships was because she didn’t especially like them for their sake alone, but mostly just included them for the sake of pairing the mane six with someone. I think she said some time ago that she picked mostly by looking up which ships were most common for each character and leaving it at that. Her new next gen is mostly based off of ships she has come to like on their own merits.
The ships that she kept, presumably, were the ones she kept liking. I think she said that Trixie/Starlight and possibly Dove will be making the jump as well.
To be honest, I have to say I never felt terribly strongly about some of the ships in her first next gen, especially Pinkie/Pokey and to a lesser degree AJ/Caramel and some of the CMC ships. They kinda had that feel some of the early fandom ships had where a major character was paired up with a background pony with no lines and barely any screen time for the sake of pairing them off.
That’s how I felt with some of her original OCs too. But at the same time, I feel the same for these pairings as well. She did keep Rainbow/Soarin and Celestia/Discord as two of her pairings and I think that these new pairings are rather fitting as well (minus perhaps Rarity/Maud).
One of the reasons I really liked her original OCs was from the pairings, with using ships that it seemed like could become canon after a time skip. Definitely vanilla flavor, sure, but it made it feel more legitimate in a way. While this is now Kilala’s new verse, I’m worried I may not feel the same way about these new dudes.
That’s a shame. I liked some of the older ones. But these new ones are real nice too.
Yeah, I just checked, and she said she doesn’t feel too good about her old characters. Too “Tropey”, according to her. I don’t think she’s going back any time soon.
Nevermind. I just checked and realized that these were the same alternate universe OCs I was talking about earlier.

She did make some of her original next gens from popular ships in the fandom as opposed to the ships she liked. So maybe this is to more or less fix that.
Not the first time she’s made an alternate continuity of next-gens either. I think this is either her second or third attempt at it.
I think she just doesn’t like what she was doing with them, not the characters themselves. She may go back and do something different with them when she feels ready. Or not. It’s not my choice.
Doesn’t she despise them?
Pretty sure that she’s just focusing on these new character for the time being, the rest of the old ones still exist. This is just an alternate continuity.
