Trixie (EG)

Trixie Lulamoon is a female human and Trixie's human world counterpart in the My Little Pony Equestria Girls film series. She is a student of Canterlot High School, the lead singer and guitarist for the band Trixie and the Illusions, a secondary antagonist in My Little Pony Equestria Girls: Rainbow Rocks, and a central character in My Little Pony Equestria Girls: Forgotten Friendship.

My Little Pony Equestria Girls
Trixie makes five appearances in My Little Pony Equestria Girls. She first appears in a wide shot of the school cafeteria. Her most prominent scene in the film is in front of a vending machine, dramatically declaring "The Great and Powerful Trixie... needs some peanut butter crackers." She appears in the cafeteria again during the Cafeteria Song. Towards the end of the film, Twilight Sparkle and her friends run past her by the same vending machine as before. She appears once more dancing at the Fall Formal.

Equestria Girls: Rainbow Rocks
Trixie serves as a secondary antagonist in My Little Pony Equestria Girls: Rainbow Rocks. She first appears with her bandmates in the gym painting a sign for the CHS Musical Showcase. She is among the students who sneer at Sunset Shimmer when Principal Celestia brings up the Fall Formal. During Better Than Ever, she photobombs Photo Finish's photo of Big McIntosh. She also appears in the cafeteria during the Dazzlings' song.

In the Battle of the Bands, Trixie and her bandmates participate under the name "Trixie and the Illusions" and perform the song Tricks Up My Sleeve. They eliminate Lyra Heartstrings and Sweetie Drops in the second round of the competition. Trixie and the Illusions are the last opponents for the Rainbooms before facing the Dazzlings in the finals.

When the Dazzlings manipulate Principal Celestia and Vice Principal Luna into advancing the Rainbooms to the finals, Trixie feels she's been cheated, which the Dazzlings use to their advantage by encouraging Trixie to get rid of the Rainbooms. Trixie ambushes them during their rehearsal and drops them through the stage's trap door to the basement underneath, locking them within. With the Rainbooms apparently having forfeited, Trixie and her band are able to play in their place.

Even after the Dazzlings are defeated and their spell is broken, Trixie still declares herself the greatest musician at Canterlot High and attempts to escape via smoke bomb. She is last seen trying to climb over the back of the bleachers as part of her escape, only to lose her balance and fall off.

A brief running gag in the film involves Pinkie Pie always catching Trixie hiding each time she "disappears."

Music to My Ears
Trixie briefly appears in the background in the animated short Music to My Ears, sitting at a table while DJ Pon-3 passes by.

Guitar Centered
Trixie plays a major role in the animated short Guitar Centered, where she duels Rainbow Dash in a "shred-off" over a coveted double-necked guitar at a music store. Trixie loses the duel when Rainbow Dash suddenly ponies up and blows her away with a sonic rainboom-like effect. However, Trixie is allowed the guitar when Rainbow Dash decides she'd rather buy the guitar she used in their fight. She gloats over her "victory" before discovering to her dismay that the guitar costs $12,000.

Shake Your Tail
Trixie appears briefly alongside other Canterlot High School students during the Rainbooms' performance of Shake Your Tail. When fake pony ears and tails are distributed among the student crowd, Trixie catches a pair of pony ears and puts them on.

Perfect Day for Fun
Trixie appears at the Canterlot High School carnival, watching the Rainbooms' concert and posing for a smartphone photo.

Friendship Through the Ages
In the musical short Friendship Through the Ages, Trixie partially appears during Rainbow Dash's verse.

Equestria Girls: Friendship Games
Trixie makes minor non-speaking appearances in Friendship Games, seen during the Canterlot High School Friendship Games pep rally and participating in the CHS Rally Song. She also appears at Crystal Prep Academy's welcoming party. Trixie is often seen in Octavia Melody's company.

Equestria Girls: Legend of Everfree
Trixie appears as a camper at Camp Everfree with other CHS students. Some time after being told the legend of Gaea Everfree, she attempts to summon the ancient forest spirit. When Gloriosa Daisy becomes corrupted by the power of the magic geodes and appears at the camp, Trixie is the first to mistakenly identify her as Gaea Everfree. She later helps the other campers in preparing the Camp Everfree fundraising ball.

Equestria Girls: Summertime Shorts
Get the Show on the Road title card background text includes "TRX" horizontally flipped. Trixie makes a background appearance sitting in the school cafeteria in Epic Fails. In Good Vibes, Flash Sentry helps her with a heavy load of magic props at the Canterlot Mall, and she helps Fluttershy find a missing Angel Bunny.

Better Together/Choose Your Own Ending
In Overpowered, Trixie walks through the school halls singing her own praises in her mind. In A Little Birdie Told Me, she overhears Fluttershy talking with some birds during a pop quiz and accuses her of cheating. After Fluttershy proves her innocence, Trixie asks the same birds to tutor her in trigonometry.

In Best Trends Forever, Trixie appears in two of the three endings emulating the trends stated by Rarity. She is also the focus of one of the endings of Rarity Investigates: The Case of the Bedazzled Boot, in which she mentally squares off against Rarity as a suspect in her investigation.

Equestria Girls: Forgotten Friendship
Trixie appears as a central character in the hour-long special Forgotten Friendship. She pushes for Sunset Shimmer and her friends on the school yearbook committee to put her in the yearbook's "Superlatives" section as "Greatest and Most Powerfulest". She later helps Sunset solve the mystery of her friends' memories being erased after she is eliminated as a suspect.

Other depictions
According to a "Canterlot High Pop Quiz" from Twilight Sparkle in a post by Hasbro's My Little Pony Facebook page on May 21, 2014, Trixie "is always hanging out by the vending machine".

IDW comics
In the My Little Pony Annual 2013, Trixie appears on pages 10, 16, 42, and 43.

In the My Little Pony: Equestria Girls Holiday Special, Trixie appears on page 32. Sunset Shimmer confronts her about the online blabbermouth known as "Anon-a-Miss"; Trixie denies being Anon-a-Miss but commends her for stirring up Canterlot High School.

Chapter books
Trixie is featured as an antagonist in the screenplay novelizations of the first eight Rainbow Rocks animated shorts and the second film.

Trixie appears in the chapter book Sunset Shimmer's Time to Shine. As the Sonic Rainbooms organize a fashion show to raise money for the school, Trixie spreads rumors around Canterlot High to keep students from buying tickets, partly in an attempt to break up the Rainbooms so that Sunset would be her friend instead. Sunset ultimately reaches out to her and enlists her help in putting the fashion show together.

Trixie is in the novelization of the third film, where she takes Derpy's place in the games. Similar to Derpy's role in the film, Trixie is eliminated in the chemistry round of the Academic Decathlon when her concoction explodes in her face.

In Twilight's Sparkly Sleepover Surprise, Trixie briefly appears in the epilogue chapter, "No One Gets Left Out", remarking that Sci-Twi has more friends than anyone at Canterlot High. Sci-Twi then offers to hang out with her, which she accepts.

Rainbow Rocks description
''Appearing – and disappearing – in a puff of smoke, Trixie’s an aspiring magician who never fails to fascinate. As guitarist for The Illusions, she’s hoping to pull off the ultimate trick – and win the battle.''

Rainbow Rocks Encore description

Merchandise
Three My Little Pony Equestria Girls Trixie Lulamoon dolls have been released: a Rainbow Rocks deluxe doll with hairbrush, double-necked guitar, and hair extensions; a Rainbow Rocks dress up doll with accessories; and a Minis doll. A November 6, 2013 "vorläufige Abbildung"/March 27, 2014 "Новый характер!" image depicts a different version of the first doll. Amazon.com has erroneously listed under "Posters & Prints" a mistaken Pennzoil "My Little Pony Equestria Girls Trixie Lulamoon Doll".

Personality
Much like her pony counterpart, Trixie has a very theatrical and egotistical personality, often referring to herself as the "Great and Powerful Trixie" and speaking in the third person. In one instance, she calls herself "the most talented girl at Canterlot High," and she even considers the Rainbooms defeating the Dazzlings a less-than-impressive feat.

Similar to her pony counterpart falling victim to the Alicorn Amulet, Trixie's personality traits are negatively augmented by the Dazzlings' siren magic in the second film. She argues frequently with her fellow students—particularly Flash Sentry—she openly ridicules Sunset Shimmer, and she resorts to sabotage to remove the Rainbooms from the competition.

In the screenplay novelization of the Rainbow Rocks animated shorts, Trixie displays a lot of self-centeredness, frequently boasting about her own talents and disparaging those of the Rainbooms. In the My Little Pony: Equestria Girls Holiday Special, she takes delight in the mischief that Anon-a-Miss causes at Canterlot High. In Sunset Shimmer's Time to Shine, however, the trouble she causes for Sunset Shimmer are revealed to be out of jealousy and a desire to be Sunset's friend.
