Timber Spruce is a major character in My Little Pony: Equestria Girls series. He is the co-director and counselor of camp Everfree, Gloriosa Daisy’s younger brother, and Twilight Sparkle’s boyfriend.
He is played by Brian Doe Chua, who also played Prince Delphin in Barbie: The Pearl Princess.
Appearance[]
Timber is a 16-year-old boy with light tangelo skin, dark green messy curly hair with a knit cap covering the crown of his head, wears brown wristbands on both of his wrists, and has brown eyebrows and dark green eyes.
His default outfit consists of a grey down vest worn over a red long-sleeved shirt with the sleeves rolled up and a white shirt with a green collar underneath both, yellowish-green pants, and brown shoes with yellow laces.
When he's working at Camp Everfree, he wears a red shirt with the Camp Everfree logo printed on it, khaki cargo shorts, and brown hiking boots with green laces.
Personality[]
Timber is a reliable, friendly, and athletic teenager. He is very good at leading troops to explore nature and is also very intelligent. He also seems to have a passion for precious stones. He studied astronomy very intensively, which is what struck Twilight.
He knows a lot about stones of various types, like when he tells Twilight the origin of sapphires.
However, he can seem immature and self-centered sometimes, because when he gets something in his head, he is determined to do it, like when he introduces himself to the boys from Canterlot High School (CHS) who arrive at the campsite.
When interacting with campers, he comes off as a jokester who likes to pull their legs for laughs, particularly when he jokes to Bulk Biceps about the Ruby Tent being the worst one, and when he teasingly spooks Sunset and Twilight about Gaia Everfree. His way of flirting with Twilight is also done through being a tease, which flatters her and does the same back at him.
He can at times be a showoff, especially when he tries to impress Twilight with his knowledge of natural science, and when he gets competitive such as when he and Applejack competed as lifeguards at the beach to see which one could help the most people.
He is also a bit artistic, drawing with macaroni. He likes to take pictures and he also has a knack for telling Everfree stories.
History[]
Legend Of Everfree[]
Timber appears in the film with his sister welcoming the CHS Students for camping and puts on a show about himself and warns everyone to stay away from rock quarry. He also shows animosity for his sister, which makes Sunset Shimmer suspicious.
When he leads the campers to their tents, he starts talking to Twilight about the gemstones, and that's where he falls in love with her. When Twilight stumbles upon a broken plank of the lakeside pier, Timber surprises her by coming to help. That night, where all the students are gathered around the fire, Timber tells them the story of a camping spirit named Gaia Everfree who is in the forest.
Timber talks to Twilight, telling her that he has always lived on the campsite and that he would like his family to sell him to live a normal life in the city and also tells Twilight that he is special to her by being the first to reveal her feelings to.
Throughout the film he is seen arguing with his sister about how he manages the field and about Filthy Rich, of this Sunset she becomes even more suspicious, especially after seeing Gloriosa wandering alone in the woods at night, Sunset so she believes that Timber wants to scare everyone with the story of Gaia Everfree so that she can sell the campsite without her sister knowing.
But then after she has had her power to read other people's thoughts by touching them, she discovers that Timbert is worried about her sister who has found magical gems to control plants. Gloriosa in no way wants to listen to her brother and steals all the magical gems and transforms into the legendary Gaia Everfree locking everyone in a dome made of brambles, where here Timber tries to free the campers with an ax and tries to make Gloriosa think, but without success.
Eventually, when Twilight, Sunset and their friends defeat Gaia Everfree, Timber reunites with Gloriosa and they make up. After that, the CHS students give them the earned Crystal Gala money to save the campsite.
During the Gala, Timber asks Twilight if she wants to go out with him on a date, which she gladly accepts, and then they almost kiss before being interrupted by Gloriosa.

Trivia[]
- According to the official script of My Little Pony: Equestria Girls - Legend of Everfree, Timber's age is stated to be about 16-years-old.
- Though, Ishi Rudell who directed the movie, said in a tweet that he imagines Timber to be about 17-18. This could be either Timber's current age in the Better Together series, or just left up to fan interpretation given no other character has an established age.
- Rudell also said that Timber already finished high school. Given that it's heavily implied that Timber and Gloriosa's parents both passed away, Timber could have graduated early to help his sister keep Camp Everfree open, which would explain why he's still a minor despite being a high school graduate.
- Timber wears a knit cap to keep his hair out of his eyes.
- During the Official Commentary of Legend of Everfree, Katrina Hadley, who served as the assistant director for the movie, pointed out that a lot of Timber's lines when he's flirting with Twilight could make him be viewed as a creep. So, the crew was very careful with the voice direction and animation for him by making him come off as a self-aware silly jokester who says cheesy lines to Twilight for the sake of ribbing her rather than hitting on her.
- He only appeared in two shorts during Season 2 of the Digital Series, and had no voice lines in either of them.
