-Personality Stuff-
Likes: Raves, parties, good music, having a great time [with or without friends], her work, Nightlife, Summer, Oats And Honey, Favorite Color; Neon anything.
Dislikes: Ponies who talk too much, about anything, but especially if they only talk about themselves. She also dislikes being late for anything, and as a result is always punctual. She absolutely HATES being rushed, she likes to have lots of time to rehearse her routines before a big show and if she's not given enough time, she gets stressed easily. As a result, she rarely ever goes on tour.
Motivation: Hard Drive may not look like it, but she's a very family-oriented kind of mare. She loves her little brother like he was her own, but she makes enough money to support her dam's diner and pay her brother's tuition fees for school. And honestly? What better way to do that than to get paid for doing something she loves doing?
Strengths: Since Hard Drive is a family-oriented type, she's VERY protective of her family, and to make a friend out of her, is to make a sister for life. If you're feeling down, she'll drop whatever she's doing and be there. If her lil bro is getting bullied, she'll be there to kick bully butt. Basically, she's the kind of pony you can depend on in a jam.
Weaknesses/Flaws: ADD, Hard Drive finds it difficult to concentrate on any one thing at once and because of this, she often has several projects going on at once. No one really knows how she gets anything done on time, but she manages seemingly well. Still, it's a stressful affliction to be a victim to. She doesn't like to talk about it, but once when she was a filly, she broke her left hind fetlock and had to wear a cast for a few months. Nowadays, that fetlock has never been the same and she's quite weak on it some days.
Fears: Three words: Letting. Ponies. Down. Ivy HATES to feel like she's disappointed anyone, least of all her fans, which is why her shows are never the same thing in a row. She's always constantly trying to outdo herself, which is a good thing and a bad thing- it's good because she's always looking for new ways to challenge herself, it's bad because eventually, she's going to run out of new things to try to do on stage and what then? She fears her fans won't like her if she doesn't bring a surprise to her show.
Overall Persona:
- Passionate || A passionate type, Hard Drive is as her name implies, a rough kind of pony with a passion for life, for love, and for her work. Alternately, she's kind of a fire cracker if you get her angry, and she can go to extremes if you really make her mad.
- Flirty || On the other hand, this passion can be channeled a very different way. She's also kind of a flirt and can strut her stuff like nobodies business on a good day. She likes the attention she gets from showing off and for that reason, she sometimes likes to do spontaneous things to keep her fans entertained, while also making her own life fun.
- Determined || Once she puts her mind to something, she's stubborn enough not to let it go until it's done, even with her ADD making her skip from project to project. She'll start up multiple ones at once and get them all done... eventually.
- Workaholic || Ivy LOVES her job. She enjoys it so much, there are some weeks where she spends more time on the stage than she does at her own house. Which can sometimes mean she doesn't get enough sleep, and when she doesn't get enough sleep, she's kind of a jerk, but, no one can deny that the results of all her hard work definitely pays off in the end.
- Skeptical || This pony is not one to take what you say for truth right away. Especially if it sounds outlandish and you don't have proof. She's not gullible, she is actually very smart and very wary of "Scams."
- Intelligent || As stated above, Hard Drive isn't just all about dancing with no brains in her head. She's actually very smart. Partially because her mom supported her going through college, and partially because she actually has a passion for learning in... unorthodox ways.
