A Note on Changeling Phychology · 6:00pm Jan 7th, 2014
Something that I imagined for my head-canon on changelings is the fixation.
In my mind, a person's personality destabilizes when they become a changeling, before stabilizing a week or so later. The same thing happening to newly hatched changelings, too. Any personality modification magic cast on a new changeling is permanent. Furthermore, a memory or event from that point in time will permanently alter the changeling by giving them a fixation, something that reoccurs in their mind and can range from a repressed desire to full-blown obsession.
From my story Black Queen, Red King:
On Earth (Rex's hive):
Rex has an unacknowledged fixation on making money/gathering power for himself (he considers his hive to be a part of himself).
Nick fixates on sex, especially his submissive BDSM fetish. (Borderline too kinky to torture.) (Spoiler tag because slightly NSFW)
Klika and Slagteri are obsessed with violence (Klika on general violence, Slagteri on murdering humans).
Taruke is obsessed with Rex in a 'You are my god. I live to serve you,' sort of way.
In Chrysalis's Hive :
Chrysalis gets her thrills from replacing stallion's wives.
BonBon fixates on sweets (because she couldn't taste them any more).
Shining Armor fixates on being a good husband to Cadance.
Most changelings don't even know of this normal part of their psychology.
Soooo , Chrysalis is a whore :p ?
!

You know, it's entirely plausible that calling a changeling a whore is a compliment. Considering that to earn that title, the changeling would have to be successful in seducing ponies and therefore good at gathering love for the hive. It would be like calling you hard working and economically successful.

Totally agreed with you, a changeling who makes lots of littles babies and lots of love for the Hive is credit for all of his/her race
