Everyone in the therapy group who isn’t also in the encounter class, in order of appearance:
Domino: A rescued feral, born into a herd with the usual views on alicorns. Her mother loved her just the same, but her mother was pretty much the only one, and that definitely left a mark.
Sunshine: A feral who was taken in by an abuser who had a warped affection for her, and as such she “only” had to watch all the godawful things he did to everyone else, particularly chirpies. She has a motherly heart and now that she’s living with a nice old lady who fully supports her, she would like some babies of her own, but much like Sparkle, she’s scared to have them.
Hank: A product of a mill, he had his legs removed to make him a better enfie-pal. Finally rescued, he is now living the good life with a loving human who has the money for good prosthetic legs.
Valentina: A well-loved and carefully raised pet, Valentina was raped in her “mummah-daddeh’s” yard by an invading feral. This would be traumatic enough, but she’s barely grown, and the brutal loss of innocence is a lot to cope with.
