> The main villain (?), probably got the biggest change (esp design wise, why was his color palette legit Big Mac???)

> Beetroot Sprout
> ~Goes by Sprout
> ~Short and chunky but with muscle packed into his legs
> ~Deputy to Sheriff Trailblazer
> ~Believes that the races should be separated thanks to the lies, yes, but also believes (much like his mother) that earth ponies should prepare for attacks from other races
> ~Talent is persuasive talking and banding people together (whether for better or for worse)
> ~Cocky, cares about his status but wants to climb higher on the social ladder
> ~Jealous of Blaze and how well he seems to handle his job while he's most often stuck in the background with little to no praise
> ~Bad at pretending that he's okay/bad at lying and gets noticeably nervous
> ~Doesn't like Blaze so much so that after the sheriff leaves, his smile quickly fades, and he will start making nasty comments or express his disdain for him to himself
> ~Was always put on a high pedestal by his mother since an early age about his future and what he should believe and do, which caused him to be spoiled. When he got older he began realizing he wasn't what his mother had planned for him, and always seems to seek after her support and attention, to see if she still considers him "good enough". Because if his own mother doesn't support him and his future goals, then who will? She's the one that's been hyping him up all these years, she can't let him down now! He has to know what she thinks!!
