* {{Matriarchy}}: Like Mewni, Papilion is a queendom where females are the dominant sex. [[MagicIsFeminine Only females are allowed to wield magic]] and [[DeityOfHumanOrigin become goddeses]], and only Queens and Princesses are legitimately recognized as royalty. The only way for males to become royalty is by marrying a Queen, and even then they're treated as [[BabyFactory a means to continue the matriarchal royal line]]. Sparkling Wing, the firstborn son of a Queen, was rejected as Crown-Prince because only females can inherit the throne, and he became a target of abuse for bigoted divine relatives who saw him as an upstart male. Papilion's sexist traditions factored into its destruction, as Sparkling Wing found other ways to defy them and ended up exposing the queendom's crimes to the entire world.



* BabyFactory: As in canon, due to Papilion being matriarchal, males were treated by the Papilion Royal Family as little more than a means to secure future heirs for the throne. When Queen Silver Clock tried defying this by making Sparkling Wing her successor, she ended up being cowed into having a daughter by her divine relatives, who would go on to abuse her son for threatening the status quo. Eventually, the practice ends with Papilion's destruction, with its successor kingdom Metamorpha being significantly more egalitarian under Sparkling Wing's rule.

* DraggedOffToHell: After they were killed by Sparkling Wing's faction, the corrupt divine members of the Papilion Royal Family were dragged off to receive eternal torment in Nekelmu's Hell-Realms for their crimes.

* {{Hypocrite}}: Many Papilion Queens were racist against "monsters" (i.e. the non-Pony civilians living in the queendom) and even oppressed them. The Queens themselves are Flutter Pony hybrids [[spoiler:thanks to secret experimentation performed on their ancestors by Changelings to preserve what was left of the Flutter Pony race]].



* PoliticallyIncorrectVillain: Not only were many Queens deeply [[FantasticRacism xenophobic]], they were also [[DoesNotLikeMen misandrist]] and enforced a social order that placed females as the superior sex, with males barred from things that are considered female-only privileges like magic and Ascension. This bites them all in the ass when Sparkling Wing, a male Papilion royal, Ascends to godhood in defiance of tradition and exposes the Queens' crimes to the world, leading to Papilion's destruction and their deaths.

Queen Silver Clock tried bucking tradition by making her son, Sparkling Wing, her heir, but she got pressured into birthing a daugher instead. Sparkling Wing, meanwhile, was emotionally abused for being an upstart male who threatened the status quo, giving him long-lasting self-esteem issues.
* WomenAreWiser: As Papilion was a matriarchy, females were portrayed as the superior sex, being magically and intellectually powerful than males. However, many Queens consistently proved themselves to be xenophobic, sexist bigots who were more concerned with preserving the status quo; the few who tried bucking tradition were either set up to fail, killed, or worse. Ultimately, it was the male Sparkling Wing who ended up literally and figuratively destroying the old ways by exposing Papilion's crimes to the world, leading to its downfall.

* {{Expy}}: Of [[WesternAnimation/StarVsTheForcesOfEvil Queen Skywynne Butterfly]], as both are queens who were powerful [[TimeMaster time sorceresses]] and loving mothers to their children. Like Skywynne, Silver Clock wanted her son to be a King, but her subjects pressured her into having a daughter as they despised deviations from tradition, and tradition dictated that only females should rule. However, Silver Clock let Sparkling Wing train under someone who recognized his potential, leading to him [[DeityOfHumanOrigin Ascending to godhood]] instead.

* JerkassGods: The Papilion Pantheon was responsible for much of the suffering and death that occurred in Papilion. They destroyed Obsidian Star's interracial family out of prejudice, covered up her hybrid daughter's existence by placing a peasant filly on the throne, and indirectly caused Rising Sun's death by sabotaging her efforts to end Papilion's war with the "monsters" peacefully, driving both her to madness and her enemies to eventually retaliate. Many Papilion Pantheon members were also members of the Papilion Royal Family, enforcing a misandrist social order out of sexism and emotionally abusing a young Sparkling Wing for being born a colt instead of a filly. When Sparkling Wing later Ascended to godhood and exposed their crimes to the world, the Papilion Pantheon decided to declare war on him in revenge and spite, kickstarting the "Papilion Civil War" that ultimately led to their own demise.

* AdaptationSpeciesChange: [[WesternAnimation/StarVsTheForcesOfEvil Hekapoo]] is a PureMagicBeing created by Glossaryck. Here, [[AdaptationNameChange Queen Hexagenia Avalon]] is a Royal Changeling, the Changelings' equivalent of a [[SemiDivine demigoddess]].



* MeaningfulName: Hexagenia is named after the [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mayfly mayfly]], a species of insects that have a notoriously short lifespan. This becomes an IronicName as she is one of the survivors of the Papilion Pantheon following its "[[{{Gotterdammerung}}} Twilight]]", when in canon [[WesternAnimation/StarVsTheForcesOfEvil Hekapoo]] died with her fellow Magic High Commission members.



* AdaptationalKarma: In canon, many Butterfly Queens were xenophobic, corrupt, and sexist, and only in death did they have a HeelRealization and decide to help Star destroy the Realm of Magic. Here, many Papilion Queens remained unrepentant even after having their crimes exposed to the world, and thus were killed by Sparkling Wing's faction in the resulting CivilWar and "[[{{Gotterdammerung}} Twilight" of their pantheon.



* AncestralWeapon: The Butterfly Wand and the Royal Book of Spells were First Age artifacts that have been in the Papilion Royal Family's possession for generations. Only female Papilion royals were allowed to use them; Sparkling Wing became the first male royal to use them, only to have them taken away and given to his sister, Rising Sun, after her birth. Both the Butterfly Wand and the Royal Book of Spells end up destroyed; the latter was destroyed by Krieg to keep them from interfering in his GodhoodSeeker plans, while the former was used as material to build Sparkling Wing's current wand, the Wand of Unity.
* BabyFactory: As in canon, due to Papilion being matriarchal, males were treated as little more than a means to secure future heirs. When Queen Silver Clock tried defying this by making Sparkling Wing her successor, she ended up being cowed into having a daughter by her divine relatives, who would also go abuse her son for threatening the status quo. Eventually, the practice ends with Papilion's destruction, with its successor kingdom Metamorpha being significantly more egalitarian under Sparkling Wing's rule.

* PuppetQueen: As in canon, Queen Joyous Festival and all of her descendants were secretly pawns of the Papilion Pantheon, as they were put on the throne solely to cover up information about Queen Obsidian Star, her relationship with a Fire Jotunn, and her hybrid daugher Princess Meteor Shower. Many benevolent Papilion royals had a HeroicBSOD upon realizing they're not true royalty.
* RoyaltySuperpower: As in canon, only female Papilion royals were allowed to wield the [[MagicWand Butterfly Wand]] and the [[SpellBook Royal Book of Spells]]. They're also the only ones who are granted the privilage of divine Ascension, which male royals are barred from. Sparkling Wing became the first male Papilion royal to not only wield his family's {{Ancestral Weapon}}s, but also Ascend to godhood outside of his family's supervision.

Here, the Papilion Pantheon still dies off, but they're instead killed off by Sparkling Wing and his forces for their crimes, after which they were dragged off to Nekelmu's Hell-Realms. Innocent and/or repentant members like Queen Hexagenia Avalon, however, were spared.



* JerkassGods: They were in cahoots with the reactionary and racist nobility's plot to kill Queen Obsidian Star's husband Glypher, seal her away, cover up her existence and put a peasant filly Joyous Festival into power out of prejudice over Queen Obsidian Star's marriage with a Fire Jotunn. They also sabotaged Queen Rising Sun's diplomatic efforts with the 'monster' races for the same reason, driving her to eventual madness and a destructive war which killed her and many on both sides. When Prince Sparkling Star exposed the nobility and the pantheon's machinations and prejudice, the pantheon declared war on him out of spite.

Here, Queen Hexagenia Avalon chooses to betray her corrupt peers during the "Twilight of the Papilion Pantheon" in atonement for her own actions, leading to her life being spared.



* AdaptationNameChange: The [[WesternAnimation/StarVsTheForcesOfEvil Butterfly Family]] is changed to the Papilion Royal Family here.
* DeityOfHumanOrigin: Papilion Royals can choose to Ascend to godhood and join the local pantheon, but Papilion being a matriarchy, only females are given this privilege. This changed when Sparkling Wing became the first male Papilion royal to Ascend, thanks to those like Luminiferous and Golden Scepter who didn't care for gender restrictions.
* {{Expy}}: As a whole, they're based on the [[WesternAnimation/StarVsTheForcesOfEvil Butterfly Family]].
* HeirClubForMen: Inverted; only females are allowed to rule and wield magic, with the Butterfly Wand and Royal Book of Spells being family heirlooms that are passed from mother to daughter. Sparkling Wing's female divine relatives didn't like that he was born male and showed great magical potential, and when he was made heir to the throne, they pressured his mother, Queen Silver Clock, to supersede his claim by having a daughter.
* MagicIsFeminine: As in canon, magic is restricted only to female Papilion royals, with Queens and Princesses being allowed to use the [[MagicWand Butterfly Wand]] and the [[SpellBook Royal Book of Spells]]. Sparkling Wing showing great promise as a [[WeatherManipulation Weather mage]] irked his female divine relatives to the point of telling him he wouldn't amount to anything as a male, giving him massive self-esteem issues, while pressuring his mother, Queen Silver Clock, to have a daughter that could replace him as heir to the throne. Sparkling Wing ended up proving his abusive relatives wrong anyway thanks to people who believed in him.
* WantedASonInstead: Due to Papilion being a matriarchy, male royals were barred from the line of inheritance. Queen Silver Clock tried bucking tradition by making her son, Sparkling Wing, her heir, but it got her pressured into birthing a daugher while Sparkling Wing was emotionally abused for being an upstart male who threatened the status quo.
* WomenAreWiser: As Papilion was a matriarchy, females were portrayed as the superior sex, being magically and intellectually powerful than males. However, many Queens consistently proved themselves to be xenophobic, sexist bigots who were more concerned with preserving the status quo; the few who tried bucking tradition were either set up to fail, killed, or worse. Ultimately, it was the male Sparkling Wing who ended up literally and figuratively destroying the old ways by exposing Papilion's crimes to the world, leading to its downfall.

Notably, Silver Clock saw in him the potential to become a great ruler and tried turning him into her successor by encouraging him to learn magic, passing to him her personal spellbook so he could write in new spells, and naming him her official heir to the throne.\\\

However, because the kingdom she ruled was matriarchal, Silver Clock came under heavy pressure from her subjects, who didn't want a male ruler on the throne and wanted her to have a daughter. She eventually caved in and had Rising Sun, who was named her "true" heir, automatically superseding Sparkling Wing's claim of succession. While Sparkling Wing was happy with this, as he was actually disinterested in ruling, his public rejection by his subjects due to being male left him rather heartbroken. A disguised Luminiferous happened to visit the kingdom around this time, and he was understandably angry when he learned what happened, resulting in him calling out the entire kingdom for ruining someone's potential because of a "mistake" in their gender.\\\

Recognizing that her son would be better off elsewhere, Silver Clock pleaded for Luminiferous to take in Sparkling Wing as his student. Luminiferous agreed, and after a tearful goodbye, Sparkling Wing set out with the antediluvian Alicorn, traveling all over Equus while learning under him. Silver Clock would eventually learn through a letter that Sparkling Wing became an Alicorn on one of his travels, and was so overjoyed that she started crying.\\\

She was eventually succeeded by Rising Sun, though despite her subjects' expectations, she would become a worse ruler than her older brother would have been had he not been superseded in her favor.

However, Silver Clock would let Sparkling Wing learn under someone who continued to believe in him despite his gender, [[DeityOfHumanOrigin resulting in her son becoming a god instead]].
* FollowInMyFootsteps: She believed that her son, Sparkling Wing, was destined for greatness because she saw the potential in him, and so she wanted him to succeed her as a mage King by encouraging Sparkling Wing to learn magic and making him his official heir to the throne. However, this failed because her subjects rejected Sparkling Wing because they didn't want a stallion on the throne, and heavily pressured her into having a daughter. She would eventually cave in and give birth to Rising Sun; while she still loves Rising Sun, [[MyGreatestFailure she deeply regretted cutting off Sparkling Wing's potential so abruptly]]. Fortunately, Luminiferous intervened, and it was thanks to him that Sparkling Wing was able to achieve greater feats, including [[DeityOfHumanOrigin becoming an Alicorn]].
* GoodParents: She was a very loving mother and adored both of her two kids - she wanted Sparkling Wing to be a great ruler, and tried bringing out his potential by encouraging him to learn magic and making him her official heir to the throne. However, her subjects didn't want to accept a male ruler on the throne, due to the kingdom being matriarchal, and heavily pressured her into having a daughter, which resulted in the birth of Rising Sun.
* GreaterNeedThanMine: She initially wanted Sparkling Wing to succeed her as king because she believed he was destined for greatness. However, her subjects didn't want to break matriarchal traditions and accept a male ruler, so they pressured her into having a daughter, which she eventually did despite her objections. [[MyGreatestFailure She would quickly and deeply regret her decision]], which is why she pleaded for Luminiferous to take in her son as his student so Sparkling Wing would achieve greatness elsewhere.
* MyGreatestFailure: She deeply regretted ruining Sparkling Wing's potential as a ruler for the sake of pleasing her subjects, despite having high hopes for her son. This is partially the reason why Luminiferous was lenient with her after he learned what happened, other than Sparkling Wing begging the antediluvian Alicorn to go easy on her since she was keeping up appearances.
* ParentalFavoritism: Subverted. Because her kingdom is matriarchal, she had to give birth to a daughter as dictated by tradition, and devoted her attention to her daughter, Rising Sun, and trained her as a future queen. However, in private, she loved both of her children, and deeply regretted superseding Sparkling Wing's claim of succession to the throne, since she always believed he was destined for greatness.
* PointOfDivergence:
** Had she refused to let her subjects sway her into having a daughter, Queen Rising Sun would not have existed. Instead, Sparkling Wing would succeed her as the kingdom's first King as she always hoped he would.
** Had she not met Luminiferous and pleaded for him to take her son as his apprentice, Sparkling Wing would've stayed home instead and eventually fade into obscurity, his potential rejected and squandered by his subjects because of his sex.
* TearsOfJoy: She shed these out of pride for her son when she learned through a letter that [[DeityOfHumanOrigin Sparkling Wing became an Alicorn]], having finally become the great person he was meant to be.
* TimeMaster: Implied; her name, her description as a unicorn sorceress who specialized in time magic, and the fact that she's an {{Expy}} of [[WesternAnimation/StarVsTheForcesOfEvil Skywynne Butterfly]], who was dubbed the "Queen of Hours", pegs her as this.


Added DiffLines:

The younger sister of Prince Sparkling Wing, the Alicorn god of Peace, Leadership, and Unity. Rising Sun was born out of a need to secure a successor for her kingdom's throne - Sparkling Wing was the original heir, but because the line of succession was completely matrilineal, Queen Silver Clock faced enormous pressure to give birth to a daughter, and eventually did so despite having high hopes for her son. While Sparkling Wing was saddened that his subjects were quick to dismiss him as a royal because he was born with the wrong sex, he doesn't blame his mother or his sister, and still loves them both like family.\\\

Rising Sun would grow up and succeed her mother, and during her reign, she would develop racism towards non-Pony entities and monsters, something that would make her butt heads with Sparkling Wing. Notably, tensions were rising between her kingdom and its Griffon neighbors, and yet despite her and her brother's diplomacy, the Griffon leaders refused to consider peaceful options due to rising hostilities and political sabotage, leaving Rising Sun no choice but to go to war and put the "disgusting interlopers" in their place. It would be the last time Sparkling Wing would see his sister, as a few days before, he got into an argument with her while trying to make her reconsider waging war, only for Rising Sun to die in battle.\\\

However, Rising Sun did leave behind an heir: Her daughter, Obsidian Star, who would inherit the throne shortly after her mother's death. Despite this devastating loss, Sparkling Wing would serve as a part-time adviser to his niece after she became Queen, until he was assured that she could rule successfully on her own.

* TheUnfavourite: According to Sparkling Wing, she secretly felt inadequate compared to him because she had to live with the knowledge that her older brother, who was cast aside by their people for being born a colt, got to become a [[DeityOfHumanOrigin god]] while she lived a mortal Queen.
* WellIntentionedExtremist: Much like her character inspiration, she believed that going to war with non-Pony entities, such as the Griffons, was the only option of survival since her and her brother's attempts at diplomacy with the Griffon leaders didn't work. Sparkling Wing tried talking her down, only to fail when she still went through with her decision to wage war with her Griffon neighbors, and died in battle a few days later.
* TheWrongfulHeirToTheThrone: She was considered to be the rightful heir of Queen Silver Clock by virtue of being female and the line of succession being completely matrilineal. Ironically, she turned out to be this as she eventually became a racist warmonger during her reign, which led to her death. Sparkling Wing, who was rejected for being of the wrong sex, proved himself worthy of the throne by Ascending to godhood and becoming a god of Peace, Unity, Leadership, and Weather -- things that are actually desirable in a good King.
