Lol redesign 5790000 alert, baby and adult starseer with her father!
Once there was a powerful unicorn mage who spent all his time studying magic. He rose through the ranks and eventually found himself in the courts of the palace, working directly under the Queen.
Eventually, there was a marriage arranged for him by a well known unicorn family to their daughter. He was persuaded to marry the mare and they started a family.
They did not love each other romantically, but they did get along well enough as they co-parented their daughter. He taught his daughter magic as soon as she could speak, and though she was blind, she was gifted like her father, and he developed a sort of Braille in order for her to read like him.
In his studies at the palace, he became a trusted council member for the Queen, they even studied and discussed magic together. He was eager to learn under the Queen, the only known alicorn still living. She taught him much about alicorn magic as they experimented together, writing down their findings and advancements in powerful magic . As time went on He was trusted to go on outings with the Queen and her alicorn daughter, Alexandria, who was just about the same age as his own. Together, he and the Queen tutored her in magic in seclusion.
Eventually, while studying on his own in private, away from other ponies in order to not accidentally cause harm, a troup of changelings approached him. He had never seen such creatures before, but he could feel their dark magic. Weak from his extensive training and experimentation, he fought them fiercely. Due to their numbers and his weakness at the time, and after being ambushed, he was eventually captured by the changelings and replaced.
He was taken for information, and not too long after being taken to the hive, his wife and young fully were taken as well. He was constantly being drained of his magic by the changelings, but as he saw his wife get consumed completely by the starving hive, a burst of emotion sprouted forth, giving him just enough magic to teleport his daughter to safety.
In the palace, the changeling disguised as Him was discovered quickly, as well as the rest of the family, due to the changelings inexperience with the level of magic required of his position. The entire family was assumed dead.
His daughter was teleported to a remote wooded location, and was soon found by a bog witch in the area, whom then took her in as a pupil after noticing her strong aura of magic about her.
My Changeling Queen! Her name is either going to be Queen Aphid or Queen Odonata. Kinda leaning towards the former.
I wanted to give her more of a yellowish color palette, but I think I’ll still adjust slightly, don’t want her looking too much like a chrysalis redesign.
In terms of personality, she is a bit different from chrysalis, she genuinely cares for her hive and they are her children. Though she is just as ruthless about her rule and her conquest for her children. She doesn’t collaborate with other hives of her kind, as is typical for changelings. They are like bees after all, they stick to their own hives business for the most part ( and every pony else’s when comes to maintaining their food source). they definately get their nose in the Ponies business, politics, etc etc.
