Name: Marshmallow Kiss
Parents: Sweetie Belle and Prince Blueblood
Species: Unicorn
Special Talent/Career: Pop star
Personality/Bio: Marshmallow Kiss is the famous pop singer who reached stardom at the tender age of fourteen. As the "Apple of Canterlot's Eye," she became the envy of many young mares and stallions who thought they they, too, had the natural-born talent and voice that she did. Every young teen in the city wanted to be Marshmallow Kiss as she set the trends, gave the public a standard of wealth and popularity, and inspired them to become just as amazing as she was. Being the daughter of wealthy diplomat Blueblood and equally talented Sweetie Belle certainly lent itself to her reputation.
But of course, this tale is not so idyllic as that. She's selfish, petty and emotionally stunted with serious issues making genuine connections. Marsha thrives on making fake friends, or at least she thinks she does.
Some say she was born a star as her debut truly took place when she was but a toddler, and her mother inadvertently pushed her into the spotlight. From then on, fame swallowed her life, and she LOVED every moment of it. She loved the bright lights, the thrills, the attention and her adoring but highly deluded fans. Sweetie Belle truly tried her best to convince her that fame has a cost, and that being the mare with the most stallions at her hooves was not as important as it sounded. Alas, Sweetie lost real connection with her daughter as soon as she became a teenager, and watched helplessly as Marsha fell into the crazy world of the Canterlot Elite.
After having her father sign a music contract with veteran agent Svengallop, she fell victim to the ravenous hoards of manipulative bigwigs, the paparazzi and her thousands of fans. Being a young girl in a cruel and largely selfish world definitely comes at a cost, no matter how fun and pretty everything is in the moment.
Notes:
-At a young age, she was already growing distant from her family as she vied for the attention of strangers. This only became worse when they started judging her for her mother sleeping with Blueblood, her weird looking sister, and her rowdy cousins. They were simply uncool. For the sake of her reputation, she simply had to keep distance between them. That is, except for Granny Smith. Something about the old woman dug into Marsha's soul and stuck there like a thorn, giving her a niggling thought that in reality she's a very lonely pony. But that's just ridiculous.
-She spent a lot of time with her fashionista Auntie Rarity, and much to Sweetie's frustration, had a closer relationship with her than her own mother. Rarity taught her everything about being a high class lady, and how to dress the part. However, even this connection died away as Marsha grew to have her own tastes and her own fashion line (which in truth was designed by Coco Pommel).
-Marshmallow seems like she has her shit together, but she's a fiery ball of stress and emotional constipation. That is until a certain jazzy teenage hearthrob is contractually obligated to enter her life, and she finally feels real love that she is totally and utterly unprepared for, and oh god why does everything hurt so much.
