Azure Dawn

Azure Dawn was born a pegasus in the city of Canterlot, to a pair of middle class unicorns. Well, middle compared to the high society, they still had a reputation to hold. Despite the differences, she was taught to fly at a young age with the help of family friends.

During her school years, Azure was hard at work trying different skills and hobbies, maybe a little too much. She'd learned first aid, sewing, astrology, magic and science theory, potion brewing, multiple forms of inventory sorting, reading history... Even racing, hoping to get a respectable cutie mark. She'd spend almost all her free time staying after classes to learn, bringing books home just to learn MORE instead of sleeping.

After many months of ignoring her body's pleas for rest, she felt the consequences during a history exam... The moment her pen touched the paper, everything faded to black. She didn't even feel her head hit the desk...

With a few days full of dreams, some lovely and some scary, Azure awoke to the foreign, warm hug of her bed. After all, she only briefly napped on top of it in the middle of reading... She hadn't taken the time to actually use it in a long minute. As Dawn broke through a clearing sky, the sun rays slowly filled the room, leaving her with this simple, serene moment to appreciate, before the certainly busy day that awaited. Who knew a good night's rest could feel so refreshing!

Upon arriving in the living room that day, instead of the usual lecture about self care, both parents stared speechless, worried frowns turning to giggles and smiles. Somepony had learned a lesson, judging from the new cutie mark.

Following these events, the pegasus made sure to put self-care before everything else. She began to read books related to sleep and pony phisiology, and eventually took a job at a spa, where she could help ponies recover. On the side, she began sewing pillows, nightwear and covers as a hobby, using her past experiences to make the most comfortable fabrics she could. Those are for sale, if one is close enough.

Despite being born and raised in canterlot, Azure doesn't have much of a knack for high society. She can smile and hold small conversations at best, at least until an interesting subject comes along. Not that she hates social interactions. By default, she is always warm and welcoming to new acquaintances. This can't be said of everypony of course, she may be colder towards lazy or arrogant ones.

As for her attitude towards herself, she is a little more strict. You can assume she's already planned her month ahead... At least in terms of rest and self care. The rest is flexible,who knows what new interest she'll pick up next?

While she's more adventurous and outgoing than her younger days, she knows there's still progress to be made.

If you tried to make silk out of summer clouds, it would be pretty close to how her mane and tail looks and feels. Her coat, tail andmane are well maintained, but she doesn't go out of her way to style them much, simply cutting the mane once it gets in the way. Her golden irises are reminiscent of a solar eclipse, surrounding the darkness of her pupils. Aside from these, she's just like any other pegasus, maybe a little shorter than usual.
