Princess Antlion Aphid

BIO

Likes studying the sun, sundresses, large hats, hosting parties, yoga, calligraphy and diplomacy. Baby girl!!! She was the last kiddo I colored in but I'm very happy with how she came out! Aphie is based off of antlion larvae, not so much aphids but it's a cute lil addition to her name. Does not have wings or a horn, probably casts magic from her external mandibles (yes, all the kids can open their mouths to show even more mandibles! aren't bughorses fun!). While the Chryslestia kids were born in a clutch of 7, it hatched first making it the eldest. Kinda scatterbrained, constantly looking for things to do and finds it hard relaxing...even while doing something fun. Not necessarily shy but is easily embarrassed and will cover its' face with its' facial wings out of shame. As the eldest she is training to be Celestia's heir, so it's a good thing she is very good at political meetings. The usually antsy Princess becomes calm and collected during said meetings...taking control of the room in seconds and immediately becoming jittery the second everything is said and done. Is often trained alongside her younger cousin Luster Dawn (Lunaflashthorburst, Lunaburst) and is very fond of her, although Luster gets annoyed by Aphie at times (often likening her to a lost puppy). Despite that, the two mesh well enough and like to study/research together. Dawnie will often insist it's only so Aphid won't start whining but in reality she enjoys spending time with her...she'll just never say it out-loud. That's ok, Annie knows :] Special talent is using the sun to power technology!
