General
Name: Asteria Stillheart
Nickname/Alias(es): None that she is aware of.
Race: Unicorn
Gender: Female
Age: Mare of 28 years
Additional Status: Usually wears a black hooded cloak to hide her cutie mark. It also serves to hide her mane and tail at night.
-Physical Stuff-
Pelt Color: Jet Black
Mane/Tail Color and Style: She has a dark red mane and tail that are kept lightly trimmed back in length.
Eye Color: Crimson red
Cutie Mark: A silver package that denotes her abilities as a courier. It is usually kept hidden under her cloak to prevent strangers from easily identifying her as someone who transports and retrieves things.
Other Scars/Markings: None of any particular note.
Physique: Asteria is relatively tall for a mare, able to look most stallions in the eyes without having to look up. She is extremely toned to the state of a marathon runner. Her muscles are not large, but they are well trained and she keeps herself at the minimum healthy weight for someone of her stature.
-Social Stuff-
Current Residence: Asteria does not have an official home, finding such a thing pointless for someone who is always traveling. That being said, her base of operations is in Canterlot. She has been sent off to all the major cities across Equestria, and a few obscure locations of importance.
Job: Asteria works as a courier who retrieves and delivers high profile items for equally important people. She works for the highest bidder, and often finds herself working for non-ponies. Asteria rationalizes that such clients are more willing to pay premium prices for her services and she can use that to pursue her goals further. Although she is not as fast as a pegasus, she can use her magic to keep packages hidden and safe. When work is slow, she can sometimes be seen delivering normal items across short distances.
Mother: Elegant Star
Father: Stern Gavel, a judge of high esteem in Canterlot, well known to anyone in that circle.

Closest Friends: Her main group of friends are her employers that she has deemed respectable through their actions. Aside from her employers, her friends are few and far between.
Courting/Courted By:None in particular
Mate: None, too focused on her work to be interested.
Foal(s): None, kids would make her job all but impossible.
-Personality Stuff-
Likes: Asteria comes off as apathetic to almost everything at first glance. Of course that isn't completely true because she does appreciate many things. She likes those who hold true to their ideals, especially those who refuse to lie. She appreciates those who are selfless enough to sacrifice their time and resources to help others that are less fortunate. Asteria likes to read while on travels and often finds herself learning things, foreign languages in particular, as she crosses Equestria.
Dislikes: Asteria tries to be open minded about everyone and everything. She does not like judging others, especially with limited information. The unicorn does not like people who nonchalantly lie and go out of their way to deceive others. She will usually not express her opinions, unless specifically asked to, because she feels that she could unfairly bias the opinions of others.
Motivation: Asteria was often teased for her nightmare-ish appearance as a young filly. The unicorn learned to rationalize their words and the reasoning behind them and soon wasn't bothered by them, the mare simply apologizing for her presence being bothersome. Upon discovering her special talent, she decided to be an anonymous benefactor to the less fortunate across equestria, pony, and non-pony alike. She donates a majority of her profits to specific charities that support such creatures and hopes to raise awareness about the less fortunate in society.
Strengths: Asteria is about as physically fit as a unicorn can manage, her constant travel across Equestria giving her the physique of a marathon runner. She is always open to hear the words of anyone she meets, be they a pony, dragon or some other creature. She is a fluent speaker of the native tongues of griffons and dragons, speaking with them in their own language out of respect to their culture. Her special talent allows her the use of illusion magic to change the appearance of herself and her belongings. It can also be used to reach very remote locations on an extremely limited basis.
Weaknesses/Flaws: Asteria's biggest weakness is her refusal to judge others without appropriate information on them. She can be very gullible about claims made by others because she always hopes for the best in others. She is very slow to make friends because she has a tendency to put her work above everything else. Asteria is able to think through situations thoroughly and objectively, but suffers from being very literal minded. She often misinterprets figures of speech and many metaphors, unintentionally misunderstanding the words of others. She doesn't tend to hold these understandings against others, somewhat aware of her odd disconnect.
Fears: Asteria prefers to go through things logically, and she deems that fear is irrational, causing others to make poor decisions. When put into a dangerous situation, she simply consolidates her position and tries to examine what is going on. While she isn't afraid of anything in particular, she often worries about certain things. She is always concerned about the task she is assigned to and hopes to not ruin her reputation by botching a job. Asteria also fears that her efforts might not cause the desired positive effect and that her actions might prove her critics correct.
Overall Persona: At first glance, Asteria appears to be a very melancholy, if not completely apathetic pony. She is very secretive and never goes out of her way to reveal anything about herself. She always appears to be completely stoic, masking her thoughts behind an unflinching expression. Asteria is not a recluse though and understands that extremely suspicious activity would be counter productive to her goals. If approached, she will speak in the most polite of ways possible, and answer questions to the best of her ability while being as vague as possible about specifics about herself. She is prone to being too trustworthy with new strangers, almost refusing to judge others based on their immediate actions.
