About

Sparky is a cheerful girl who once stood for something. She hides her trauma behind bright smiles and is almost uncapable of taking anything seriously. Usually she looks happy to other people, but she can turn aggressive at the drop of a pin. She is currently the bodyguard of Animus.

Biography

Relationships

Ribbon

Ribbon and Sparky have the same birthday, though Ribbon was two years older than Sparky. Ribbon showed Sparky the ropes around Hillslope, taught her to cook and bake, and asked her to investigate the attack on Starry. Sparky was about to take all the caring she gave her for granted. She couldn't have been more mistaken.

Gratitude gets you far, Sparky. Very far.

Qibli (friend)

Sky (friend)

Firecrackers (friend)

What's the difference between their cursing? Sparky does it unconsiously; she treats curses like like normal words. But Firecrackers curses intentionally, just to piss people off.

Amber (mother)

Sparky loves Amber almost obsessively. Amber seems to be more focused on Willow, however.

Peacock (stepfather)

Peacock is Sparky's step-father ~~and reincarnation~~. Sparky hates him because he didn't match up to the perfect father (Jackal) in her mind.

Peacock, on the other hand, is deep in conflict as he both hates who he was in the past, but also desperately wants to be who he was in the past.

Fantasy (older stepsister)

Ironheart (older stepbrother)

Sparky and Ironheart are locked in an eternal childish sibling rivalry despite growing into adults.

Willow (younger half-sister)

Sparky and Willow have the same mother but different fathers. Willow is the one who understands Sparky the most, because of her mind-reading.

Nightsun (husband)

They're both bisexual and deep in the closet. They both know the other is bisexual. They're both trying all sorts of gimmicks to make the other come out.

They met in a children's park one day while Bramble, now legally Sparky's child, was playing with Peach, Animus's daughter, as Sparky was supposed to be protecting her. Under the stress of taking care of a kid on her own, Sparky married Nightsun shortly after sending the kids back home, believing that Nightsun could stay at home for her and take care of Bramble. He did, so now Bramble likes him ("papa!") more than he likes Sparky ("auntie"), and now she's mad about it.

Nightsun is an agent sent to get close to Sparky in order to get information on Animus. (No, I don't know who sent him, gimme some time.) Sparky knows this. He knows she knows. She knows he know she knows. They both pretend not to know anything.

Bramble (nephew)

Bramble still refers to Sparky as his aunt even when he calls Nightsun his dad. Sparky is really mad about it. She really did care about Bramble. Now I wonder where I've seen this before... Ah yes, Sparky calling Peacock "Peacock."

Bramble also constantly pesters Sparky into telling him what happened to his mom, because "Auntie knows everything!" Truth is, Sparky would also very much like to know what happened to Fantasy.

Pearl

Sparky took care of Pearl like she's her daughter. However, as they ran out of money and was struggling to move forward in Sylvandia, she found herself also looking at Pearl and seeing not a person, but a machine for producing pearls.

Devotion (frienemy)

Sparky and Devotion have the exact same pistol so they always have fights about whose pistol is better. They are. Exactly. The. Same. Colt 1911 (didn't the industrial revolution just break out in 1911? Whatever I don't care). But apparently Devotion's gun is retired from the military while Sparky's is bought off the civilian market.

Elegance (friend)

Sparky and Elegance are good friends. There was this time when Elegance was kidnapped, and Sparky refused to leave her side, so she got kidnapped with her.

Sparky's superstrength distorts Elegance's perception of time, though they didn't know this at first.

Trivia

Drawing Permissions Click for more

(Nearly identical to my Artfight permissions anyways.)

Character Permissions

The strand of hair on her left cheek is longer, touching on her chin, while the strand on her right cheek is shorter.
The highlights on her hair goes down, up, and then down.
Her pupils point towards the middle! Unless she's looking at somewhere in particular.

Global Permissions

The marks on the girls' faces are eyelashes, not face paint! In my art style girls have eyelashes and boys don't (cartoon logic) but feel free to do whatever you like to do in your style! (Including drawing it as face paint; just tell me so I know you didn't mistake the eyelashes for face paint.)
None of my characters have real-world skin colors! Their races are just whether they have ears or horns on their heads, so everyone's skin color is the same.
You can draw whatever color you want as long as:
- It's not that weird like literal green alien skin or something.
- Basically, draw human-colors or black (literally) / white (literally) / gray.
- Make sure all of them are the same if you draw more than one of my character together.
- (My default is Asian though for your reference.)
The same applies to hair color. Default black, make sure all of them have the same color.
Please color pick their accents (hex values above).
The highlights on their hair are parts of the design, and are optional.
Go wild:
- Basically anything not mentioned in Don't. This involves:
  - Gore (any type).
  - Draw them interacting with each other (mine, yours, or anyone else's).
  - Change anything about them (outfit, gender, species, whatever) (just make sure I can still tell who it is).
- Go wild!
Don't:
- NSFW, 18+, whatever.
  - This involves artistic nudity.
  - Or anything that sexualizes them.
  - And shipping (except Sparky and Nightsun (not even Amber and Peacock)) (friendly interaction is, of course, allowed).
- Hateful stuff, duh.
