'''Rarity''' is a member of the [[Mane Six]] and represents the [[Element of Generosity]]. She is a white Unicorn and though not nearly as powerful as [[Twilight Sparkle (Friendship is Magic)|Twilight Sparkle]] in the magical arts, is strong enough to hold her own against most threats. Befitting of her element, Rarity is kind and charitable, though can be stuck up and even violent in certain situations. In spite of her posh, well groomed and highly civilized nature, Rarity is incredibly brave and will go through great lengths to protect others.
 
==History==
Line 57 ⟶ 58:
===Foalhood===
[[File:S1E23_Rarity_rock.png|thumb|300px|Little Filly Rarity]]
Rarity was born in [[Ponyville]],<ref>''[[The Elements of Harmony, Vol II]]'' {{CN|pg. 25}}</ref>, and most likely grew up in the [[Belle residence]] with her two parents, [[Hondo Flanks]] and [[Cookie Crumbles]], and later her sister, {{FIM|Sweetie Belle}}. As a foal, she attended [[Ponyville Schoolhouse]], where she was taught by [[Play Write]]. Even as a filly, Rarity was a dedicated fashion designer, doing costumes for a school play, though was not proud of her work. During the [[Sonic Rainboom (event)|Sonic Rainboom]], Rarity was mysteriously attracted to a 'dumb rock', that cracked open to reveal countless assortments of gems. Inspired by the colorful rocks, Rarity used the gems in her own designs, defining her style for decades to come.<ref>{{CAR|FIM|The Cutie Mark Chronicles}}</ref>
 
Growing up, Rarity was fascinated with fashion history and culture.<ref>{{C|FIM|64}}</ref>
Line 76 ⟶ 77:
 
On the night of the Grand Galloping Gala, Rarity was head-strong in her one and simple goal, to romance [[Prince Blueblood]] and to become a [[princess]] of Equestria. The actual day went...differently, as it quickly became apparent that Blueblood was a stuck-up jerk who put himself above others. Though Rarity tried to salvage the date night numerous times, she ultimately gave up on the prince and his self-absorbed demeaner and later reconvened with her friends, who decided to spend the rest of the night at [[Donut Joe's]].<ref>{{CAR|FIM|The Best Night Ever}}</ref>

===Later life===
Line 97 ⟶ 86:
Rarity is a complicated pony with many, sometimes contradictory sides of her personality. Rarity is somewhat stuck up, occasionally looking down on others for whatever reason, but never judges them on the inside. She's kind-hearted, warm and a loving friend who shows goodwill and kindness to total strangers, usually not expecting anything in return. Usually.
 
Rarity can be seen as the most 'mature' of her friends, arguably moreso then even Twilight. She embodies ladylike behavior, rarely straying away from proper behavior, usually only doing so to protect her loved ones or in fits of rage. AdditionallyShe is an artist at heart who takes her craft seriously, and has shown a wide-net of skills, such as painting, acting, and prose. Rarity is business-minded and runs an empire of different shops and services across Equestria.
