'''[[Queen of Equestria|Queen]]<ref>{{M|GAMELOFT}} - ''[[Cutie Mark Deuxsaders]]''</ref><ref>{{C|FIM|101}}</ref> Twilight Sparkle''' was the [[Element of Magic]] and last known monarch of [[Equestria]], serving as the queen after the [[Retirement of Princess Celestia and Princess Luna]]. Before her reign as the matriarch of the country, she worked as the [[Princess of Friendship]], and before that, she was a humble [[librarian]] at [[Golden Oak Library]]. Born in the [[capital]] [[city]] of [[Canterlot]], Twilight was the youngest child and only daughter. Early in her life, she enrolled at [[School for Gifted Unicorns|Princess Celestia's School for Gifted Unicorns]] where she was taught as Celestia's own pupil.

[[File:MANGA Realizing Reading can be pretty boring.jpg|thumb|Despite her love for reading, Twilight has found it boring before]]
Twilight has a wide range of academic, literary and scholarly interest. She is a huge fan of the works of [[Summer Mane|Jade Singer]] and has read a vast amount of books pertaining to countless subjects, such as law,<ref name = UGLY>[[The Good, The Bad and The Pony]]</ref>

===Family===
{{Main|Sparkle
Twilight hails from the Sparkle family of unicorns. Although the exploits of her past lineage is largely unknown, the children of Twilight Velvet and Night Light have proven to be extremely successful in the land of Equestria, with Shining Armor marrying a princess and becoming the head of the Royal Guards, while Twilight has become a princess herself and a symbol of love and friendship throughout Equestria. The Sparkle family continues to grow with the birth of [[Flurry Heart]], the daughter of Shining Armor and Princess Cadance. In terms of extended family, it is strongly implied that Twilight's Sister-In-Law, Cadance, is related to [[Radiant Hope]], though Cadance knows nothing of her lineage.
Line 253 ⟶ 165:
* '''[[Flurry Heart]]:''' Flurry Heart is Twilight's niece. They have a close, loving relationship. Twilight loves to spend time with Flurryheart and dotes on her.
* '''{{FIM|Spike}}:''' Although not related by blood, Spike and Twilight are practically family in the truest sense of the word. Twilight raised Spike only months after he was hatched and the two have lived together ever since. Twilight has always acted in a rather maternal role towards Spike, instelling good manners in the young dragon, but also treats him like an older sister would treat a younger
Twilight considers the Apple Family to be apart of her honorary family,<ref name = SUPERSPEEDY>{{FIM|The Super Speedy Cider Squeezy 6000}}<br>'''Twilight Sparkle:''' Um, Miss Mayor! Are honorary family members allowed to help in the competition?<br>'''Mayor Mare:''' Well, I'm not sure... Flim, Flam, would you object to honorary family members helping?<br>'''Flim:''' Are you kidding?<br>'''Flam:''' We don't care if the whole kingdom of Canterlot helps. It's a lost cause.<br>'''Mayor Mare:''' Hm, I guess it's okay. Applejack? What do you think?<br>'''Applejack:''' I think I'd love to have the rest of my family helpin' out.<br>'''Mane Six:''' All right!<br>'''Twilight Sparkle:''' Okay, everypony, we're not gonna let those smooth talkers take our friend's farm.<br>'''Mane Six:''' Yeah!</ref>
In many ways, Twilight seems to view Princess Celestia as a motherly figure, or at least a role-model.<ref name = FIM40>{{C|FIM|40}}</ref> When she was a filly, Twilight idolized Celestia above all else<ref name = COTC>[[Call of the Cutie]]</ref> and the alicorn seemed to take a special liking to Twilight as well, letting the filly sleep on her<ref name = FIM40

===Princess or Queen?===
The exact title Twilight Sparkle used post-second coronation has been a somewhat contested subject. In the mobile game by Gameloft, Twilight was referred to as the [[Queen of Equestria]], however, the television show still referred to her as "Princess Twilight" in "[[The Last Problem]]". A possible solution to this continuity hiccup is that 'Princess Twilight' was still used in her early reign, whereas "Queen Twilight" was not used until far into the future.
