Her mane is long, curly/wavy and somwhat scruffy. Her tail is neither long nor particularly short, and is also scruffy. She wears two black bangles high on her legs, as well as two just above her hoof on her left front leg and two on her right hind leg.Eye Color: Dark brown, almost black.Cutie Mark: A magnifying glass with a brown handle and a grey lens with a question mark in the middle. The handle points diagonally down-and-back.Physique: Long-legged, slender, and noticeably taller than the average pony.Origin: CanterlotRoleplay Type: FiM/Mane RoleplayOccupation: An author of specialised trivia books, i.e. "100 Interesting Facts About Hyenas", and occasional freelance journalist.Motivation: After struggling to find her 'special talent' for a long time, Spectre realised that what she enjoyed most was simply learning interesting trivia, and spreading her knowledge to others. Hence, she began to write her long and ever-expanding series of specialised trivia encyclopedias.Likes: Rock/Alternative/Humour music, animals, magic, grand entrances, being melodramatic, writing, learning, adventuring, drawing.Dislikes: Ignorance, being outdone, not being able to fly, wet weather, Country music.Character Summary: Born to two grey-coated ponies, her snow-white coat and dark eyes instantly reminded her parents of ghosts, hence her name-- which, incidently, suited her spooky, mysterious personality. She was brought up in a wealthy family in Canterlot, and as such she never really had to work for anything. It became obvious early on that she was extremely intelligent, and was fairly skilled at many things-- magic, art, writing-- but none of it truly drew her in. As she got older, the other ponies around her began to gain their marks, and she struggled to figure out what her calling was. She constantly tried to meet the high expectations of others, hoping that if she tried hard enough her mark would appear-- but her flank remained blank.Finally, when she was in her late Fillyhood-- exceptionally late, for most ponies-- she realised that what she enjoyed most was learning and spreading trivia knowledge, the only reason she'd done well in most subjects, since all she had to do was remember facts. Finally following what she enjoyed instead of what others wanted, Spectre began to write her first book-- "150 Interesting Facts About Bears"-- and once it was done her mark appeared, the magnifying-glass-and-question-mark acting as a visual representation of her encyclopaedic knowledge of trivia.She then continued writing her books-- earning a substantial amount of money along the way, and buying her own house-- as well as writing "Trifle's Trivia Tabloid", a recurring article in the Canterlot newspaper. She has, however, always been something of a hermit, and often finds herself bored, listless, and desperately in need of company. So, she has taken to travelling all over Equestria in search of new experiences, friends, and adventures-- while writing her books and articles as she goes.She is bold, though by no means fearless-- however, she'll do her best to overcome those fears for a suitable cause. She'll stick up for what she thinks is right, come hell or high water, and she won't tolerate meanness or anyone threatening those close to her. She's boisterous and fun loving most of the time, and has an explosive wit that seems to burst forth almost against her will at times. She is extremely tactile and affectionate, and her first instinct when running into a friend is to snuggle them.She is an extremely talented magic user, though certainly not the most talented. She also enjoys helping those around her with anything they might need help with. She is, at heart, a kind soul-- though her sarcastic wit and fits of grumpiness often deter new aquaintances from getting to know her better.
