MLP G3: A Very Minty Christmas - Choose Your Pony!

In this post, I'll be explaining the families of the G6 main cast, as well as discussing the family dynamics.

Firefly is adopted and has two moms, Cloud Climber and Paradise. All three are pegasi, and they live in a tiny village called Gossamer on one of the Butterfly Archipelago's many islands. While they no longer live in the same house — Firefly moved out pretty recently — they're still within walking distance from each other. While Firefly has never felt unloved or unwanted, she does wonder what her biological parents are like, or if they're even alive. She has no memories of them, and while the whole situation doesn't bother her that much now, it used to tear her up as a filly. She didn't feel comfortable talking about her feelings with her moms, so she tried looking for information on her parents on her own, with no results. Still, she considers herself lucky: not every foal gets adopted, after all.

Silver Swirl initially lives with her parents in Prismtopia, the capital and largest city of Unicornia. Her father is named Copper Glow, and her mother's name is Silver Rain. She also has an older sister, Silver Glow, who lives in Ponyville. Silver Swirl and Silver Glow were never very close; in truth, Silver Glow was jealous of the attention her "perfect" little sister got. After Silver Swirl botches the ceremony and is sent to Ponyville, she moves in with Silver Glow. It's a bit awkward, to say the least.

Minty was born to a mare named Mistletoe and a stallion named Peppermint Crunch. Mistletoe eventually died, however, and Minty only has a few (treasured) memories of her. Peppermint Crunch remarried, pairing up with a mare named Blossomforth, and the two had a foal and named her Flower Flash. Minty doesn't get along too well with her stepmother and half-sister, and though her father says he wants the whole family to get along, Minty can't help but think that really, her father just wants to put the past — including Minty — behind him and replace it with something new. Minty moved out at a rather young age, and she now lives on the opposite side of Ponyville from her family. She still has a very good relationship with her maternal grandmother, Candy Cane.

Wind Whistler has two little sisters, one of which (Whistle Wishes) is a unicorn. The youngest, Thistle Whistle, is a pegasus. The parents are Windy Wisp (a pegasus) and Moonstone (a unicorn). When they divorced, Windy Wisp took the pegasi daughters with her to her home village of Morpholu in the Butterfly Archipelago, while Moonstone took Whistle Wishes with him to Prismtopia, leaving the house in Ponyville empty. The two sides of the family don't get along and rarely interact. Wind Whistler moved to Ponyville as an adult, since it reminds her of her early foalhood. She still feels like she could've done something to stop her parents' divorce, though she tells herself that this sort of thinking is irrational.

Sweetie Belle's parents are two unicorns who moved out of Unicornia before she was born, and Sweetie Belle now lives in Ponyville, far away from them. She doesn't talk about them much, and her friends don't even know their names.
