Misty Brightdawn

**Misty Brightdawn** is one of the Mane 6 in My Little Pony: Make Your Mark. She is also the long lost daughter of Alphabittle Blossomforth.

## History

Misty was rescued by Opaline when she was only a filly and she's lived with her in the Dark Castle ever since that day. For currently unknown reasons, Misty never developed a Cutie Mark, but has always longed for one.

After magic returns to Equestria, Misty is sent by Opaline to spy on Maretime Bay. While there, she discovers that Earth Ponies have new magic that can grow plants, and also secretly leaves a magic mirror at Sunny Starscout's smoothie store.

When she returns to the Dark Castle and reports to Opaline what she has discovered, Misty suggests that if Opaline gives her a Cutie Mark, she could understand magic better. Opaline assures Misty that she will be given a Cutie Mark once Opaline has her full power back.

On May 19, 2023, the official YouTube channel uploaded a Short of Tell Your Tale, showing Misty with a proper cutie mark, and with the light green parts of her mane having changed to orange. Although the Short was uploaded 2 weeks prior to Make Your Mark Chapter 4, footage checks of the Short with Content ID indicated it was a clip from Sparkle School scheduled for 2 months after Chapter 4, indicating that events in Chapter 4 have caused those changes to her.

When she brought Sparky to Opaline in Chapter 4 - Missing the Mark, she felt guilty about what she'd done and went to get the Mane Five, however, she unknowingly lead them into a trap - which Opaline traps them in a magic cancelation bubble and Opaline revealed to them about Misty working with her all along which made them all upset and angry with her and leaving Misty at a crossroads about what to do next. In the end, she chose to help her friends since they showed her kindness, the kindness she deserved and treated her like a friend than a tool like Opaline does.

Misty adds that she'd rather 'wanting to be a pony without a cutie mark forever than go another day as a pony who does the wrong thing'. Misty freed the Mane Five, allowing real friendship into her heart and her actions earned her cutie mark.

Misty had the Mane Five 'pretend' to tie her up as a trap for Opaline and a plan to rescue Sparky leading to a battle between her and Sunny which Sunny won thanks to the Unity Magic from her friends and Misty which defeated Opaline but only for a short while.

Now Misty has magic which she now hides from Opaline along with her cutie mark. She went to the Brighthouse and apologized for everything she'd done says they helped make her whom she should have been the entire time - herself and she joins the Mane Five to find a way to defeat Opaline officially becoming the sixth member and making the Mane Five, the Mane Six of Generation 5.

Steven even compares Opaline to his own mother Rose Quartz/Pink Diamond.
