Name: Gem Shard
Gender: Mare
Age: 21
Generation: FiM
Species: Unicorn
Location: Ponyville
Status: Single
Appearance:
Small, a little unkempt, but pretty in her own unique way. Gem Shard was bespectacled young unicorn mare who heralded from the middle class of Canterlot and found herself settled into the quiet rural charm of Ponyville. Her fur was indigo, bordering on a darker shade while her mane and tail had a two toned mix of bright royal blue and mint green. Her eyes a sparkling amethyst, never lingering in one spot for long, giving off a sort of nervous anxiety whenever she found herself in a new place with new ponies around her. When not out and about, she was in her home crafting all sorts of interesting trinkets from gold, silver and above all; precious gems! Her Cutie Mark was a single sparkling amethyst, further solidifying her love and infatuation with her job as a jewel crafter.
Personality: Gem’s obsession with all things precious and shiny leaves her to be a bit of a recluse and sometimes stonewall the more obvious advances of friendship in her life. Those who are not deterred would be rewarded in finding a sweet and shy mare more than willing to open up for a friend. Her quiet life in Canterlot has left her fairly restrained and quiet, but very open minded when she’s around friends. When in a pickle she will more than likely stand in the face of danger and take it head on to defend her friends.
History: Born and raised in Canterlot, Gem had a fairly easy, if boring life among the middle class that lived there. She had very little friends, but that hadn’t been her primary concern. While not being able to attend Celestia’s School for Gifted Young Unicorns, she settled for her mother and father’s own teaching to hone her growing talent in magic.
Her Cutie Mark appeared directly after she had found a sudden and inexplicable liking for her mother’s prized necklace that had been passed down from generation to generation in her family. Through her unconscious tinkering and repair of the precious heirloom, she had returned the ruby’s sheen and luster. This of course earned her a very stern scolding, despite the apparent good she had done.
Her talent found, her Cutie Mark consisted of a single sparkling amethyst gem, and showed her budding affinity for all things in the way of jewelry and refining their raw stones into something with more luster and beauty. This would have proven a great way to roll in the bits, but her dislike for Canterlot as a whole drove the young unicorn, fresh out of school, to explore the world around her and find a quiet place to hone her talent.
Ponyville happened to be in her way, more or less, and so she settled there. Her apartment was small, but she worked out a living from it. Her talent quickly turned into an obsession for any sort of precious stone and gem, leaving her to be a bit of a recluse, but not at all unfriendly. Those that were able to break through to this sometimes disheveled and jewel crazed little unicorn would find a shy mare just waiting to open up and make friends.
And maybe even find a special somepony!
Did you read the rules?: Bringing scones and not sharing?! How could you?!
Other: Gem’s use of magic is honed for creation and refining raw materials to forge and restore jewelry. This focus has left other fields of magic lacking; all of them being offensive and defensive spells. While being a little dainty in build, she’s very capable of defending herself if need be. Or at any rate, leave the one meaning her harm more than a little sore and with plenty of scars to remember her by.
