Pony's name: Trixie, The Great and Powerful Pony's age: Young mare, roughly around nineteen in human years Type of pony or animal: Unicorn Pony's cutie mark and special talent: Trixie's cutie mark is that of a purple wand with pixie dust and a yellow star. This matches her highly gifted magical ability, able to manipulate physical objects and even rainbows. Employment: Trixie makes a living by performing one-mare shows where she uses her magic to create tricks aimed to please audiences. Her favorite means of doing so is by having volunteers come on stage and using her great magical skill to embarrass them in front of others. Current city: At the moment Trixie has currently decided to reside in Ponyville. Trixie finds Ponyville to be a great place to begin her magic shows, as most of the rural citizens are not used to magic. Appearance: Trixie is a blue pony with a pale blue and off-white mane and tail and purple eyes. She often wears a deep purple witches hat and cape covered in silver and gold stars.
Trixie's human appearance is obviously very similar to her pony form, with long blue-white wavy hair and purple eyes. As a human Trixie stands only at about 5'3 tall and is quite slender. In her human form Trixie also keeps her wizard hat and cape with an elegant performance dress.
Personality: Trixie is a pony unlike many others, she is a pony that places herself in front of her friends. Trixie isn't exactly a cold pony, but acts this way more out of immaturity. Trixie had learned how to use magic since a very early age which has given her a feeling of superiority over other ponies. Because of this false sense of superiority, Trixie often treats others as her underlings. It is quite common for her to use her biggest fans as slaves to do her bidding. Trixie doesn't really believe in making friends with others, being the type to look out only for herself. That doesn't exactly mean she wouldn't help another pony out if they truly needed it, but she would easily make sacrifices to safe her own flank.
Since Trixie is so overzealous of her own magical abilities, she won't hesitate to lie just to boast. In fact Trixie is rather gifted at making gullible ponies believe anything she says. Not exactly a con artist per say, she is able to put together tales that sound true enough for one to doubt. Plus she has the magical ability to quiet neighsayers, which is exactly what she prides in doing. Trixie takes insult whenever other ponies don't believe in her stories and is always willing to challenge their ability against her own.
Whenever another pony dares to challenge Trixie, she isn't afraid to utterly humiliate them in front of a large crowd. As such Trixie takes joy in embarrassing others that challenge her without any consideration of their feelings. She even goes as far as to brag about her wins after every duel. Despite the way she acts towards others many find her spells to be quite clever and funny. Combined with a natural charm that she seems to carry and her witty mind she easily attracts large groups of supporters.
Though Trixie takes massive enjoyment out of embarrassing others of less talent with her magic she absolutely can not stand being up staged. She also carries with her a strong willed attitude that can come off as cocky. If another pony is to perform a trick on her she is easily angered and holds a very deep grudge for them. Just to make sure she will never be proved lesser than somepony else she'll even sabotage them in anyway possible to make sure her victory is imminent.
Trixie thinks of herself as her own living idol. She refers to herself in the third person as "the Great and Powerful Trixie" and the most magical pony in Equestria. She takes a good bit of care of her physical appearance, as she can often be found grooming her mane at her personal stage coach. Trixie also diets so that she can keep a good figure as a stage performer. She even has a rather strong sense of fashion, as one can tell by her custom made magician's costume.
Background:
Trixie was born in an industrial city much like Manehattan but a lot smaller. Having spent much of her life in a crowded city bustling with ponies Trixie grew up rather strong and independent. Her parents owned a local magic shop that sold all sorts of items needed for the common unicorn. This included empty potion vials, copies of basic spell books and other magic studies, wizard hats and capes, and more. Trixie's parents taught them everything they knew about magic, which really was only as much as the common unicorn. However Trixie wasn't content with knowing just basic everyday magic and wished to learn more. She spent a lot of her time as foal at the library instead of outside playing with others her age. By the time she graduated from school she was very adept as using magic. It was one day during studying that Trixie had acquired her cutie mark of a wand and pixie dust, the day she felt most ambitious at becoming a legendary magician known through all Equestria.
Trixie learned to use many basic spells to great efficiency, such as manipulating all kinds of physical objects and even rainbows. One day Trixie had met a traveling magician unicorn that visited her hometown and awed the crowd using spells in ways in which she had never seen. It was shortly after than that she began having thoughts of becoming a stage magician herself. Once her heart was finally set on becoming a legendary magician Trixie gave her parents one big farewell and took off for the road.
Before she left her hometown Trixie had worked at a local "pub" as a entertainer that used her magic to awe crowds. She became well known through her city and even began to make money through her shows. One day a unicorn challenged her to a duel of magical skill. Trixie had defeated the unicorn with her superior magic and felt a rush of pleasure from winning. Ever since Trixie's biggest gag has been to challenge volunteers in the crowd to her unbeatable magical talent. Growing bored of constantly winning against local small time opponents Trixie finally decided to test her ability throughout Equestria. After a few months of a constant winning streak Trixie saved up enough bits for a stage coach to begin to life ambitions.
Anything else you'd like to add: I tried to add as much information and personality as I could about Trixie. Being limited to one episode is kind of hard.
Please give suggestions if there's anything else that can be said about the Great and Powerful Trixie!

Hey there!
Your app is looking really awesome and I love it, but our word count for both personality and history is 350 words each. As far as personality goes, could you talk a bit more about what Trixie's like? You go into great detail about what she is in public, but what sort of things is she thinking? Why is she the way she is? As for the history--the same thing. Talk about things that actually happened, stuff like how she got her cutie mark.
I love this app annnd I can't wait for you to finish! :]
