Dislikes: Cleaning up after a project (She thrives in a chaotic work space), Sweets (Never got a taste for it), Confrontation, and Other ponies looking over her shoulder as she works (it's distracting.)
Motivation: She wishes to be the first Saddle Arabian tapestry weaver for Canterlot Royalty.

Fears: Blowing her fuse and hurting someone. Being unable to adjust in her new home.
Overall Persona: Tupitsa Loom is a quiet pony. An introverted girl who prefers to sit back and watch how things play out and to better understand things before acting. While she is quiet, she isn't anti-social. She is able to hold a conversation, but is equally happy just listening to what other's have to say. When she warms up to other ponies, she would more gladly share her thoughts and opinions. She is a gentle and honest spirit, at first glance her fire does not seem to burn very bright; but she actually has a short fuse. But after feeling guilty the first time she 'exploded' she's been keeping a lid on her anger as not to sadden others and feel guilty for doing so. When ever she feels she is going to loose her cool, she takes a step back and focuses that energy into a weaving design.
She has a love of learning new artistry techniques and incorporating them into her work. Almost nothing distracts her more and commands her attention more than of studying ancient and/or modern techniques of weaving and design. Weaving rugs with her siblings helped her calm her rebellious phase as a filly, helping her gain a new outlook on how to handle situations. In the moment when you're weaving a rug, a tapestry or even a basket, all the different pieces of thread can be overwhelming and chaotic and you may want to cut corners. But this creates a weak product. Through patience and and not skimping out on work, you'll be rewarded for what you've done.
History/Background: Tupitsa was born in North-West Saddle Arabia in one of the Oasis towns, Medineigh. She worked with her family weaving and designing rugs and decorative saddle blankets that Saddle Arabia is famous for. Selling wasn't easy though, many people thrived in this art form, it was difficult to sell the family products to ponies (except for tourists). Despite this, she loved it. But she wanted to find new challenges, trying to learn more techniques to try and support the family. The more she learned, the more she tried to hone her skills, the more curious she got. Once she was old enough and saved up enough bits, she immigrated to Ponyville to try her luck making money there to send back and support her parents, like her siblings.
Note: I'm aware that on the accepted species it says ponies from Saddle Arabia are for those who have been online a while. But, I wanted to give it a try regardless.
