-Personality Stuff-
Likes:
Dancing, Tea, quiet walks in the park, casting spells (like parlor tricks), Nice ponies, polite audiences, successful performances, mares. Her love of dancing comes from the job she already owns and the love of them as a filly. She likes tea, seeing it as a nice and calming drink to have (and it tastes good too). She likes quiet walks in the park and in general mainly because then she does not have to worry about practice and the parks in certain cities are beautiful and wonderful to explore. She likes casting spells just for fun, seeing as she is no magician or wizard and she does have a horn for a reason. Like anyone else (normally) she likes polite ponies, ponies that know how to talk to complete strangers or other ponies. She likes polite audiences mainly because they calm her nerves when she's performing and then she can perform decently. Successful performances are a like mainly because she gets paid that way. Mares would be because they make her feel safer than in the presence of stallions and that is her preferred choice for a romantic partner.
Dislikes:
Terrible shows, mean ponies, dragons (they scare her). Terrible shows means she does not get paid, and she would very much like to be paid. Mean ponies because who likes being in the presence of a rude pony or someone who enjoys to bully other ponies? Dragons because they are too big and their ability to breath fire scares her pale.
Motivation:
Her motivation in life is probably awing an audience with dancing, something she loves to do. Because she has vowed to never give up dancing, there is almost no chance in losing this motivation and her cutie mark reminds her of this everyday. Even when she's an old mare, one look at her cutie mark is enough to spark good vibes from her.
Strengths:
Having being taught to use her back legs when she entered one of the Canterlot Theaters, I would say her legs, using her horn to create simple spells, running . Using the back legs of a pony is not something everyone would do everyday and that's a strength when it comes to dancing. Using her horn is a strength most unicorns can use and for that, she can use it for self defense if needed though running is always a better option for her. Running is a strength seeing as she was a very energetic teen and filly and would run to get everywhere she needed (and still does).
Weaknesses/Flaws:
Flying (well she doesn't have wings XD), Any complicated magic (even teleportation is hard for her), Can be slightly clumsy (often because she's not watching where she is going....another reason why she is not picked for having a solo), often messes up with spells (this often leads to something getting turned into a frog....or an orange or something just exploding)
Fears:
Dragons, the dark, royalty/afraid of messing up in front of royalty, messing up onstage. She is afraid of dragons mainly because she hates how they are able to breath fire and how big and dangerous they are. She is afraid of the dark mainly because she can't see through it and her imagination decides to run wild and think of all the creepy-crawlies that might be coming to get her. Royalty she is afraid of because she believes that messing up in front of them will ruin her image and the theater's image as well. She seems to have no idea that the princesses are kind enough to not do something like that.
Overall Persona:
To sum it all up, Ivory Rose is a gentle and kind pony with a passion for dancing ever since she was a filly. She's often a little clumsy with what she's doing other than dancing. She often has fears that she'll mess up with her dancing though it hasn't done so yet, practicing helps. Her busy lifestyle did not leave much time to make friends but recent events in the theater has left time for her to explore her home in Canterlot. Having been focused on her dancing life, she doesn't quite know how to act around other ponies, greeting them is something she knows how to do but she is one of those ponies that can easily kill a conversation. Around what little friends she has, she still is pretty awkward. She is often a little paranoid, sometimes thinking the worst of everyone before she can even start a conversation with them and this can often damage a possible and future relationship or end it right then and there. She doesn't really understand or "get" sarcasm either, and using it dead into her face will make her think that you are being literal, as she is a very literal pony. Around royalty or very important nobility, she is often very nervous and immediately starts to think that every mess-up will spell doom for her and her theater even if the other thinks it cute, adorable, nice etc. She's also not one to have a mean bone in her body unlike some Canterlot natives who do look down on certain things she would never look down upon (reference to canon ponies rather than other oc(s)).
History/Background:
Her backstory is not very eventful but she was born to an earth pony male named Eric and a unicorn female named Violet Rose. As a child, she was very very enamored by the dancers in Canterlot. When she reached her teenage years, she traveled to different cities in hopes of becoming a dancer but was denied at every theater. She finally found and joined a theater in Canterlot, the same theater she had been admiring as a child. After joining it, she never left. At some point, the theater began to go a little downhill and it has left her time to explore the city and pursue romantic/friendly/and financial desires.
I hope this is pretty good for a first character here....
