Princess Skysparkle is the proud mother of Prince Endearment. When Skysparkle looks at her son, she almost sees a reflection of herself – and not just in his appearance. Endearment truly follows his mother’s heart, and he values her knowledge and wisdom. In turn, Skysparkle values the new things her son has learned about friendship.
 
Skysparkle is not just a mother – she is her son’s best friend. And Endearment is her best friend! They never like to be apart for an extended amount of time. If they stayed apart for a week, they might come back crying to each other. When they are far apart, they can sometimes sense what is happening with the other. If one is happy – if one is sad – if one is in distress or pain – the other may feel it.
 
When Skysparkle raised her son, she was determined to be a friend for him – and make him be a friend in return. Her discipline is not about exercising authority – except when needed to enforce the things that good friends do. His mother has given him millions of gifts, but he is not a spoiled child. Rather, she has made him share her generosity with all their friendly subjects.
 
With his gifts, Endearment has built his own Friendship Embassy. He has given homes to many people who had none, and he has helped found a number of foreign kingdoms, built on friendship. Endearment has outlived every family he has raised. But he is always finding new people – of all races – to adopt as nephews and nieces. Many were orphans; many were refugees; and many were just normal people who befriended him. Nightlight’s family is part of that third category.

It seems that some like to troll me about Endearment looking like a male version of Celestia.
 
It is true that Skysparkle’s design is inspired by Celestia’s. However, the colors and wings are different. Also, the hairstyle is not Celestia’s normal hairstyle, as I understand it. The crown, breastplate, and shoes also look different. Finally, Celestia’s build is just a basic profile – just like Twilight’s or Big Mac’s.
 
Obviously, Endearment is meant to look like a masculine version of his mother (though slightly smaller). But he certainly looks like his own character.

Endearment is one of my favorite character designs. It was my goal to make him look as much like his mother as possible – while falling just short of being girly.
