About a year ago, I decided to reboot the Upsy Daisy verse a little and post on my socials. Finally, I’m posting it here!
This is part one, part two will be coming soon! Individual character info below the cut! Enjoy! :)
Chic “Chuck” Magnifique, 30
-Loud. Very loud
-Talks in old timey English accent eg. ‘What ho!’ ‘Good show!’ ‘Absolutely spiffing!’
-Total Himbo. Dumb as a rock. But is knowledgeable in certain areas like engineering and Southern Equestrian cultures
-Likely autistic
-Loves adventure, so much so he rarely comes home
-Loves Rarity and his stepmother Fleur
-Hates Fancy
-He mainly returns lost treasures to many cultures and tribes in Southern Equestria so he has earned a lot of respect from them
-Though this has made him develop a bit of a ‘white saviour’ type complex
-Very good of heart but his lack of common sense gets him into trouble
-Knows how to fly and build planes but is always crashing them
-He always sends the repair bills to Fancy
-Crashes (not literally this time) at Orin and Snowballs place frequently in Manehatten
-This eventually results in a on/off relationship with Orin
Iron Chad, 29
-Can be scary and intimidating but is actually a really chill dude which makes him an excellent bodyguard
-Is just a great drinking buddy
-Looks like dude bro but is full of chill and wise vibes, like a muscle-bound jock hippie
-So it’s no surprise that he likes surfing on his days off
-Hard of hearing and has a deaf mother so he knows the sign language of his people
-Which is what made Daisy hire him since she uses Minotaur Sign Language (and not because he’s hot)
-Bodyguard and boyfriend to Upsy Daisy
-Technically, his relationship with Daisy isn’t allowed so shh!
-Super close to his mother (a old school but awesome heavy metal singer)
-Relationship with Iron Will is ehhhhhhhhh?
-Had to unlearn a lot of toxic masculinity
-It used to be really bad, like yikes!
-When he started working hard to become better as a person, that’s when his relationship with his father turned sour
-Different values, bro
-Daisy likes his muscles and he knows it
Bramble, 26
-Has a broader collie called Skye
-Lazy bum. Hates chores and farming
-Unless it has to do with baking, making jams and foraging
-Is closer with Sugar Belle than Big Mac
-Simply put, Big Mac is a hard worker, Bramble is (mostly) not
-It kinda makes Big Mac sad that Bramble doesn’t seem to want to be close to him (like he was with Bright Mac) but he would never admit it
-Has absolutely no chill when showing affection with his boyfriend Ace
-Was originally the only gay in Sweet Apple Acres until his cousins came out. He was not amused by that development
-Despite being a unicorn, he feels more like an earth pony and rarely uses his magic, even for levitation
-Like his sister (the canon SugerMac kid) and mother, he loves baking and making jams
-He knows the Zapp Apple Jam recipe off by heart and makes it every year but feels like he just can’t get it the same as Great Granny Smith’s
-Grew up close to Daisy, besties for life
-This is due to Bramble being three days older than Daisy and their fathers being good friends
-Used to wrestle with her as kids but when Daisy became a professional, he never stood a chance
-does not like Fancy Pants but pretends to be nice to him since Ace asked
Upsy-Daisy, 26
-Is one of the four Draconequi in existence (the others being her dad and younger brothers)
-Mute, communicates with Minotaur Sign Language,
-Was kidnapped at a young age and has PTSD as a result
-Despite her trauma, she is playful and down to earth but it took a lot of (still ongoing) therapy to get to a healthy mindset
-Still has trouble with sleep so often has visits from Luna in her dreams
-Was born with magic but asked for it to be removed after the kidnapping since her flashbacks caused her to lash out and almost kill Fluttershy
-This broke Discord’s heart since she was the only other creature to have the same magic as him at the time but granted her wish (though he still keeps her magic safe in a jar tucked away in another dimension. Just in case)
-Loves bunnies and has a emotional support rabbit called Demon (no relation to Angel)
-Loves wrestling. Is a major wrestling star
-Kinda feels like wrestling is her outlet and way of taking control for what happened to her
-Despite no longer having magic and being mute, she can somehow make animal noises based on her emtoions
-Cutie mark hidden under her fur on her chest
-She didn’t know it was there until she got gum stuck on her chest and had that patch of fur shaved off
-Best friends with Bramble, can totally kick his ass and hates his PDA with Ace
-Non binary, uses any and all pronouns
-Thought she was asexual for a long time until she met Iron Chad
Ace Dandy, 26
-Has a ball python called Monty
-Talks posh Canterlot but is very much a Ponyville boy
-Has a tricky relationship with Fancy, who tried to train him into an elite when he was a foal. Rarity and Chuck did not like that
-Still really wants to impress him and live up to his stupid high standards
-Learned hoofball from his grandfather as a way to cope with his parents divorce
-Blamed himself for the divorce for a long time as a kid but even though he now knows it wasn’t, it still affects him
-Used to play for the Canterlot team as that what he thought his dad wanted but now plays for the Ponyville team
-Enjoys Buckball but prefers playing the Earth pony part since holding a bucket is boring. He loves a good challenge
-Super close with his brother Chuck, even more so they they both came out
-Do they go all out during Pride? Hell yeah!
-Has a younger half-sister Opalite. He can listen to her talk about rocks for hours, even though he hasn’t the foggiest what she’s talking about
-Would stomp on her crummy ex boyfriends if given the chance
-Like his siblings, Ace speaks Prench (French) but, much to his embarrassment, can’t read it very well
Bright Eyes, 25
-Has a sowy owl called Patience
-Gummy is a now a full grown alligator and is not allowed anywhere near Patience after he tried to eat her
-Technically an Alicorn with very underdeveloped wings
-Bad at magic for a time but learned to use it properly when it was discovered that she’s an Alicorn
-While they are friends, she butts head with Bramble a lot
-Especially about baking
-Bramble bakes to perfection, Bright Eyes just burns
-Hates this because everything she does is very high maintenance
-Has no desire to be a princess so is greatly annoyed when everyone calls her that
-Girlfriend of Tornado Rush
-Had an emo phase as a teen with lots of piercings. She regrets all the holes still on her face
-Mad about maths
-Like, gets ridiculously excited about numbers and how they can apply to day to day life
-Is a bingo queen
-Discovered she loved teaching and is working as a teaching assistant so to climb up to become a maths professor
-Can be overly confident, which has lead her to trouble more times than she can count (and she can count excellently, thank you very much!)
Pale Umber, 25
-Strong girl
-Big girl
-No surprise given her parents on both sides
-In fact, she was so big that she stunted her brother’s growth in the womb (and squashed AJ’s kidneys, rip)
-Very hardworking but literally the sunniest and friendliest pony you will meet
-‘Y’all come back now, y’hear?’
-Gets homesick very easily so not a fan of travel
-No interest in apples. Broke mama Jackie’s heart
-She did have the Apple Family’s hardworking and honest viewpoint, which often butts with Flim and Flam’s ‘neice’ Jammie Dodger’s not so honest lifestyle
-Learned lumber and wood work from Burnt Oak. Took over his business when he retired.
-Has a small herd of Guinea pigs that live in the barn. Has argued with Daisy about how much better they are than bunnies
-No matter how big she gets, she will always be Rockhoof’s ‘wee lamb’
-Not fazed by insects but terrified of snakes
-In fact, she never visits her cousin’s place since Bramble’s partner Ace has a pet snake
-Poor Monty was hurt by that
-Dropped out of high school early to peruse her lumber career but also because she hated school due to crappy teachers not being accommodating to her dyslexia
-Umber is still self conscious about not being able to read so great, despite reassurances from her friends and family
-Misses Orin terribly. He was the one who made her the flannel jacket
Orin, 25
-Grumpy and a Mr Sassy Pants
-Serious anger issues, will fight you
-Only his sister and dad can calm him down (and eventually, Snowball and Chuck too)
-Has an orange cat called Tiger
-Stunted growth since Umber took up most of the room in the womb
-Also has asthma as a result so isn’t really supposed to do too much exercise
-Still pretty strong due to Apple genes and some of Rockhoof’s magic so he will still fight you
-AJ used to be super overprotective of him when he was small, which may be where his anger issues stemmed
-Rockhoof trained him to fight at Orin’s request but don’t tell mum!
-Despite this, he loves his family and WILL FIGHT YOU IF YOU DARE SAY ANYTHING-
-Was super close to Great Granny Smith when she was still around, who taught him how to crochet
-Besides textiles, Orin is super interested in family histories, which he talks in great length with his younger cousin, Forelle
-Currently lives in Manehatten to study Fine Art Textiles and works part time in a Woollen Mill
-Has the typical Apple accent which confuses a lot of creatures since it doesn’t match his city hipster look
-Does not understand why he’s attracted to Chuck so much since he’s a idiot but mostly doesn’t complain
-Besties with Snowball, they like to go out clubbing
-Also no interest in apples
Tornado Rush, 25
-Takes care of Tank the Tortoise
-Knows Spitfire’s ‘drinking through a straw’ speech off by heart
-Works in the Cloudsdale weather factory specialising in strong storms and tornados
-She’s also one of her department’s Team Leads and is very stressed about it
-Very skilled flyer thanks to her mums but had interest in being a Wonderbolt
-However, she can be competitive
-Even more so than Rainbow Dash
-Whatever you do, don’t play chess with her
-Still lives with her parents. Mostly because it’s cheaper but also to give Rainbow Dash a hand caring for Spitfire (who became a paraplegic after a flying accident in this AU)
-Had to deal with a lot of body dysphoria and anxiety growing up
-Didn’t start her transition until late teens and is now very happy where she is
-Never changed her name
-Rainbow and Spitfire were super supportive of her transition. Sometimes embarrassingly so
-Girlfriend to Bright Eyes
-They are both giant nerdy bi love birdies
-Absolutely the responsible sibling, butts heads with her brash adopted brother Lickety-Split
Snowball Surprise, 24
-Grew up in Starlight’s Village with their three parents
-Non binary, strictly uses they/them
-The ‘surprise’ part of their name comes from the fact that they were born pretty early and ‘snowball’ because it was in the middle of a snowstorm
-Because of this, Double Diamond, Party Favor and Night Glider were super ultra helicopter parents
-Though sometimes they had good reason as Snowball is pretty impulsive
-Snowboarding is cooler than skiing, dad!
-Loves winter, always builds snow forts and has snowball fights even as an adult
-Even stole snow clouds just to make it snow earlier which they got into a lot of trouble for
-Very sheltered so living in Manehatten, they went a bit wild
-Parties all the time, probably does a lot of….adult activities that her parents most defiantly don’t know about
-Given their party pony side, lots of creatures are surprised they love knitting, which they specialise in for their studies
-Thinks Starlight is a creep, can’t really figure out why, just a funny feeling
-Has a bit of bat pony from Night Glider’s side of the family
-Met Orin in college, they became besties and roommates
-No, really, just roommates. No romantic going ons here, thank you
-They both bonded over their woes of having overprotective parents, talk about textiles and gab on all the local dirt on their fellow students
