Backstory:

Raised out in the country on a farm with only her family around, Terse Tranquility (who also goes by Tranq) spent most of her time by herself, often under her favorite tree reading (the one plant she was never able to kill). She's always been fascinated by other ponies, and so has become a writer to further explore relationships without ever having to interact with anypony else. She decided to attend boarding school in Vanhoover. Adjusting to the change of city life for her was difficult. One evening after studying for finals and being awake for eighteen hours, she had a stroke of genius for a story. She was exhausted, and needed sleep before a big test the next day, but instead wrote the outline for said story, and collapsed into bed. She didn't realize she had gotten her cutie mark until one of her friends in class pointed it out.

In school, Tranq was a beacon of knowledge for her classmates. Although not outstanding in magic, her other classmates looked to her because she retained information extremely well. She was proud of herself for this, but the attention made her uncomfortable. After she graduated, her family asked her to move back home. While she missed them, she decided to move instead to Manehatten to try and secure an agent and publisher.

While it was a large undertaking, Tranq looked forward to the cross country relocation. Due to her not feeling any sentimental attachment to what she owned, she sold almost all of it (except of course, her books and violin) and bought a small cart which was light enough to pull through her journey. She occasionally stopped at inns along the way for a bath and bed, but most nights she slept under the stars. The trip, while comparatively tame, inspired her writing, and she began an epic tale, winding together themes like love, loss, politics and war, and by the time she arrived in Manehatten, she had a finished product ready to be edited and sold.

She has since moved to an outlying town of the metropolitan area, where she works most afternoons at a local cafe. One that sells the most divine coffee and croissants. Recently she met the most amazing stallion, one by the name of Endless Music, somepony who she thinks she might be able to spend the rest of her life with.

Tranq enjoys epic tales when she reads and writes, which always inspires her to get out in the world. She will often take short trips which usually last less than a week around Equestria just to satisfy her wanderlust. However when she returns home, she always feels relieved, because she knows that home is where she is truly happy.

Personality:

Introverted but self assured, Tranq knows how to act around others, but prefers to keep to herself. She doesn't talk much, so when she does others tend to pay attention. She's a bit vain, often stopping in front of mirrors to primp her mane, or check that her glasses are straight. She is extremely logical, and can often be stumped by excessive displays of emotion in other ponies. She has a wicked sense of humor, which can often be hurtful to others, though never intentionally.

While she did grow up on a farm, Tranq has no skills with plants whatsoever, and often jokes about her "black hoof". As a result her small house has no plants out front, as she's tired of watching them die.

Tranq detests clutter, and as a result, in her home there is a place for everything, and everything in its place. Her floors are always swept and scrubbed clean. A simple spec of dust can throw her into an acute flurry while she whisks away anything she considers filthy. While she is able to get dirty when something needs to be done, it needs to be not inside her house and she feels the extreme need for a thorough cleansing afterwards.

While not particularly good at it, she plays the violin the pure joy of it.
