'''Zecora''' iswas a [[Zebra]]zebra who liveslived in the [[Everfree Forest]]. nearOnce [[believed to be a wicked and ill-natured enchantress by the citizens of {{FIM|Ponyville]]}}, [[Equestria]]Zecora was in truth a highly wise, compassionate, patient and whimsical mare who cared deeply for those around her. She was known to speak in rhyme.
 
==History==
===Early life===
Zecora grew up in [[Zebrat]], the capital of her homeland of [[Farasi]]. Like her future friend {{FIM|Twilight Sparkle}}, Zecora was a rather introverted child, spending more time reading than playing games. That changed when she befriended another young Zebra, [[Marini]], and her [[Abada]] and [[Kelpie]] playmates [[Cactus Rose]], [[Crystal]], [[Dust Devil]], and [[Medley Brook]]. The six youngsters grew close, and enjoyed such activities as ''[[Ogres & Oubliettes]]'' [[LARPing]]. They were also classmates under the tutelage of Ms. [[Alegre]], one of whose lessons would later irrevocably alter Zecora's life.
 
Upon hearing that Zebras, unlike Abada and Kelpies, possessed no magical abilities or potential, Zecora became determined to gain magical skills. She studied the subject ravenously, and was surprised to learn of [[Mage Meadowbrook]], who defied Alegre's statements that only {{FIM|Unicorn}}s could learn magic. Zecora also took to speaking almost entirely in rhyme, having apparently learned that it was typical language for spells. This was to the chagrin of her five friends, whose responses to her aspirations varied but in general expressed little or no hope that she could achieve her goals. As Zecora later recalled, they would often tease her; eventually, Zecora left home with no intention of ever returning.<ref name="C|FIM|89">{{C|FIM|89}}</ref><ref name="C|FIM|90">{{C|FIM|90}}</ref>
Line 101:
===Friendships===
Zecora has become a close personal friend to most of Ponyville, but has become particularly close with [[Apple Bloom]] and [[Twilight Sparkle]], both of whom often look to her for advice and help. Zecora has also become close friends with Spike as they both know how it feels to be the odd one out, given them being different species then their loved ones.
 
==Behind the scenes==
{{Section stub}}
===Linguistics and speech===
Zecora often spoke in rhyme. The card "Zecora, Mysterious and Spooky" (''[[Equestrian Odyssey]]'' #96) features text of her speaking in {{W|Swahili language|Swahili}}.
 
===Design and etymology===
"Zecora" is an old word for {{W|zebra}}, typically attributed to being the word for Zebra in the {{W|Abysinna|Abysinnan Kingdom}}.<ref>[https://archive.org/details/bim_early-english-books-1641-1700_a-new-history-of-ethiopi_ludolf-hiob_1684_0/page/n107/mode/2up?q=zecora ''A New History of Ethiopia'', Hiob Ludolf]''</ref>
