Development and design
Human Twilight's design differs slightly from her pony counterpart in that she wears thick black glasses, her hair is tied up into a bun, and the pink highlight in her hair is wider than the pink highlight in pony Twilight's mane. From My Little Pony Equestria Girls: Legend of Everfree onward, she wears her hair in a ponytail as opposed to a bun.
On September 27, 2018, almost seventeen months after Ishi Rudell's 2017 identification of Timber Spruce's age as "17-18",[1] Rudell was asked regarding Timber "is he like a[sic] one year or two years older than Twi?" and responded "1 and a half? 😬".[2]
Depiction in Equestria Girls

Twilight is first mentioned by Pinkie Pie in the film when she brings up the notion of pony Twilight having a "twin sister who lives in the city."
Equestria Girls: Rainbow Rocks
Human Twilight in Rainbow Rocks.
Twilight Sparkle appears after the ending credits, piecing together strange events occurring at Canterlot High School and talking to her dog Spike.
Equestria Girls: Friendship Games
In the third Equestria Girls film, Twilight's human counterpart is revealed to be attending Crystal Prep Academy and is a member of the Wondercolts' rival team, the Shadowbolts. This version of Twilight is portrayed as being rather awkward and curious and treated as an outcast by many of her classmates.
Throughout the film, Twilight attempts to track and measure strange energy readings at Canterlot High, recording all of her findings on a tack board in a secret room at Crystal Prep. She gathers this research in hopes of being accepted into an independent study program, and she only competes with the Shadowbolts to conduct further observations on the weird energy.
Human Twilight in Friendship Games.
Twilight carries a pendant-shaped device intended to detect the strange readings. However, it also drains magic away, causing each of Sunset Shimmer's friends to lose their ability to pony up. In addition, it causes dimensional rifts to appear throughout the Games. When Principal Cinch discovers this, she pressures Twilight to release the magic from her device to win the Games for Crystal Prep. Once she does, the magic engulfs her, and she transforms into a monstrous creature obsessed with magic. After her transformation, Twilight uses her powers to open additional rifts to Equestria. Using Twilight's device, Sunset channels the released magic to transform herself. Following an explosive battle, Sunset offers Twilight her hand in friendship, and Twilight accepts. Twilight apologizes for all the trouble she caused, and Sunset and her friends forgive her.
Later, Twilight decides to forego her independent study application and transfer to Canterlot High to learn about the magic of friendship. At the end, Princess Twilight Sparkle from Equestria appears out of the portal, stunned to see her human friends joined by a girl who looks like her. Human Twilight only nervously waves "hello" to her pony counterpart.
In the film's alternate ending, Twilight stays at Crystal Prep, and she and Spike are on much friendlier terms with the Shadowbolts.

Throughout the film, Twilight struggles to confront the dark magic inside her, and she believes she is responsible for several magic disturbances around camp. However, these are later revealed to be Timber's sister Gloriosa Daisy's doing. With the help of her friends, Twilight overcomes her fears and proves to be the key in defeating Gloriosa. She also helps organize the fundraiser to save Camp Everfree from closing and becomes considerably close to Timber Spruce, accepting a date from him in the end.

Twilight is the main focus of the novel Twilight's Sparkly Sleepover Surprise. The back cover of the book depicts a new outfit and look for her.
In the beginning of the novel, after meeting the Twilight from Equestria, who knows a lot about friendship, Twilight is rather nervous about how little she actually knows about friendship. She gets some "friendship advice" from Sunny Flare, Sugarcoat and Sour Sweet, but it is not exactly helpful.
Software
Sci-Twi appears in the Equestria Girls mobile app.

Merchandise
Twilight is featured in various Friendship Games doll merchandise, sometimes under the name Sci-Twi. A "Sporty Style" doll of Twilight comes with a bow and arrow. Twilight's description on the back of her Sporty Style doll's packaging reads, "Study the competition!" A casual-clothed doll of Twilight is sold independently and included in 2-packs with Flash Sentry and Rainbow Dash. A Midnight Sparkle doll shown at the 2014 New York Toy Fair has also been released.
A doll of Sci-Twi with pony ears and a lab coat was shown at the 2015 San Diego Comic-Con. This doll comes with a miniature Spike the Dog figure and a school locker. An Equestria Girls Minis doll of Twilight is also slated for release. This doll comes with a doll stand, a telescope, and science lab accessories.
Human Twilight appears as a pony in Equestria on the fan-designed WeLoveFine art print "Girls in Equestria".
Personality
Twilight Sparkle nervous.
Like her pony counterpart, human Twilight is well-spoken and highly intelligent. She holds a great interest in knowledge and science, being able to assemble intricate scientific devices and solve complex mathematical equations, and her intellect rivals that of Sunset Shimmer. Unlike pony Twilight, however, human Twilight is socially similar to how she appears in the first episode. She is a bit of a wallflower, acting very awkward and timid around others, especially the standoffish students of Crystal Prep.
Despite her problems in socializing, Twilight is eager to connect with people on a personal level, demonstrated in her interactions with Fluttershy, when the two share their love for their pets, and Pinkie Pie, at the Crystal Prep welcoming party. Twilight is shown becoming increasingly distressed by the apparent harm caused by her magic-sensing and storage device, to the point where Sunset's eventual accusations leave her distraught.
Twilight lacks self-confidence when under extreme external (especially social) pressures. During the archery competition in the Tri-Event Relay in the Friendship Games, she is so affected by performance anxiety and Sour Sweet's anger at her poor aim that she begins to cry and her legs threaten to collapse under her.
When transformed into Midnight Sparkle, Twilight becomes selfish and malicious, consumed with desire to learn everything about magic even at the cost of her entire world.
Twilight in Subs Rock.
In Legend of Everfree, Twilight is depicted as more self-assured than in Friendship Games, interacting with friends and classmates more openly after transferring schools. However, she is still somewhat socially awkward, and she exhibits an intense fear of her Midnight Sparkle alter ego. Her fears do not seem to be completely unfounded, as Midnight Sparkle does appear to attempt to control her when she attempts to embrace her magic.
In Movie Magic, Twilight applies her intellect in an investigative setting by solving a missing-objects mystery on the set of the Daring Do movie. As demonstrated in the Summertime Shorts Mad Twience and Subs Rock, she can sometimes get carried away in her science experiments and pursuit of knowledge.
In Sunset's Backstage Pass and Holidays Unwrapped, Twilight shows a taste for making corny jokes and plays-on-words.

Twilight Sparkle looks Jennette from the Chipettes
I think if she went through the portal she would be a unicorn and not an alicorn.
Spring Breakdown confirmed that.
Mhm, i didnt realize she would have glasses tho xd
I thought she was named Sci-Twi by the fandom for so long
Huh, she is an alicorn in the EG world, but is an unicorn in the pony world? 0-0 :/
Sci Twi only got her Alicorn wings while ponying up in her human form from her pony princess counterpart's magic and the reason why she's a unicorn in Equestria like her counterpart was cause she's just like how Princess Twilight turn out prior to Magic Mystery Cure.
Midnight Candy Sparkle’s destruction of earth! That’s her future!
No, it isn't.
Midnight Camera Sparkle’s destruction of earth! That’s her future!
Twilight:I’ll show there’s another side to me you can’t deny
Sci-Twi's a character that I relate to just like how I relate to Sunset.
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! PONY FACE!
Honestly, if I were suddenly turned into a horse, I'd be more terrified at the sudden lack of pants
Fair. Or why no one else is wearing them
So, what happened to the Canterlot High students during the future depicted in "The Last Problem"?
Sadly, we'll never know, because the whole thing was discontinued
I cannot physically explain how much I love Sci-Twi
Sci-Twi = Dr. Jekyll
Midnight Sparkle = Mr. Hyde
If Midnight Sparkle is Nightmare Moon, then does that make Demon Shimmer the human world's version of Daybreaker?
@Greg: Neither of those assumptions is accurate.
Princess Luna and Nightmare Moon are like Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde as well. The same thing goes for Princess Celestia and Daybreaker, Sunset Shimmer and Demon Sunset Shimmer, and of course, Sci-Twi and Midnight Sparkle.
Well, kind of. For Midnight Sparkle, she was corrupted by the magic because it was too much for her (like what happened to Sunset and Rarity with the magic book Spike got her). For Nightmare Moon, it was heavily implied that it was the lingering darkness of the Pony of Shadows that used Luna's jealousy and insecurities to turn her into Nightmare Moon.
I think Midnight sparkle is worse then sunset who agrees with me?
You mean more evil? And I'm assuming you're talking about Sunset Satan. Midnight was definitely more powerful, having absorbed more magic, and thus more corrupt, so it makes sense that she's worse. Sunset Satan wanted to rule everything, Midnight wanted to destroy everything and take all the power for herelf.
(Reads the Development and Design part)
So she's 16?
Honestly, I thought she was 17-18.
Ice-jin what you say is true, but there are some things about which high school, there are not only teenagers but also older guys and girls of any age as it happens in the real world and when they graduate not depending on age, well, others say it's because of age.. she is actually 16-20 years old, as she is the youngest of the group.
16 would put her in 10 grade as of Friendship Games, Holiday's Unwrapped is 2.75 years after that. Unless everyone took a year over the timeline just broke.
there's a lot of inconsistencies regarding their ages and what grade they're in, so it's kinda hard to tell. although, they live in a world where it's normal to have bright purple skin and someone will transform into a flying magic demon every once in a while, so don't look too deep into it
@Ice-jin @MikuLuigi07 Let's not mix age with another, this confuses me. Actually her age is very ambiguous, I read in the script, it's stated that timber is 16, which means that she got 15 while the director describes her in a different way. This leaves us an open interpretation.
The reason she has no wings is because she hasn't earned them yet. She draws her magic from the same reserves Twilight does, which is alicorn magic, gifting her with wings.
Question: When Sci-Twi first became a pony, why didn't she have wings?
My guess is that because wings need to be earned, and she ddn't earn them yet. But then why does she have wings when she pony-ups? Well, I have a theory on this.
It seems that when magic goes from one world to the other, it changes a bit (as evidence in the short where Sunset runs tests on her friends and concludes that she has no idea how magic works in the human world). The magic the EQGs possess is alicorn magic that they got from Twilight's crown, which she shared with them. It stayed with them after she left, which is why they continue to pony-up. Sunset also got her magic from the crown, only it's now uncorrupted, which is why she pony-ups. Sci-Twi got her magic from all of the EQGs, which stayed with her, now uncorrupted, and since she got her magic from all six of them, it amounted to alicorn magic, which is where she got her wings from when she pony-ups, but she herself doesn't have alicorn status.
I wonder though, when human Cadance and and Shining Armor have human Flurry Heart, will she be an alicorn when she goes to Equestria. Pony Celestia, Luna, and Cadance earned their wings, but their human counterparts didn't, so they would lilkely be unicorns if they go to Equestria. Pony Cadance passed on her alicorn status to Flurry Heart, but since human Cadance didn't earn that status, she wouldn't be able to pass that on to human Flurry Heart. So my guess is that human Flurry Heart would be a unicorn if she went to Equestria too.
So Sci-Twi was exposed to the same combination of energies that made pony Twi a alicorn, but it A. only manifiests when she ponies up as opposed to being a pony (wouldy ponying up as a pony make her an alicorn, would that even work?) or B. doesn't carry over to the other dimension.
That's my theory, yes.
That explains why when Sci-Twi went to Equestria during the Spring Breakdown incident she was just a unicorn and not an alicorn.
I only Refered her as Sci Twi because she seems smart.
I got used to calling her Twilight, but I still call her Sci-Twi on occasions.
why did people just assume her name was sci-twi or midnight sparkle? i get its to tell her and twilight-twilight apart, but i just say the human twilight and pony twilight
She was probably called that on merchandise.
Read the top of the page, some of the merch has her name as Sci-Twi.
Sci-Twi is her nickname because she's a scientist.
is it possible that his Twlight Sparkle may no longer need to wear those glass he next Equestria Girls special where some kind of Equestrian magic may do somethng to her eye to make her without them?
I think it helps distinguish between the Equestria Twilight and the human Twilight to prevent any confusion.
You'd know it is the end of EQG when Sci-Twi's glasses get smashed.
What does that have to do with EQG ending?
You know how they wrapped a few things up in the final season; Garble's redemption, finally meeting Scootaloo's parents, Big Mac and Sugar Belle getting married, defeating all the villains, and Twilight becoming the ruler of Equestria.
As for EQG in this case, it's restoring the 'natural order' by having Sunset stand down and having Twilight become the leader, LIKE SHE'S SUPPOSE TO!
I don't see how or why Twilight's "SUPPOSED TO" be the leader or that her being such is part of some fictitious "natural order".
Then what's the ENDGAME?! The shows are over. I can't just wait for IDW to release the conclusion the series in the comics.
That's the only difference in pony Twilight and Sci Twi in pony form. Sci Twi wears glasses but regular Twilight doesn't. Well I haven't seen the spring breakdown movie only pictures of it.
