## Biography

### Appearance

Ballerina is a very tall, very slender unicorn with a dusty pink coat and a slightly darker dusky pink mane and tail, both of which she keeps tied back in buns. Her uniform consists of a black ballet leotard and tutu, black ballet shoes on her back hooves and a black strip mask that causes her eyes to appear entirely white. Her leotard also has a small window on the chest.

### Personality

Ballerina is a stoic and stony mare who prefers not to speak to others and takes her job very seriously. She rarely makes appearances at events or public gatherings, preferring to do her job and be left alone. This is not due to any sort of malice or cruelty, but rather her desire to focus on her own interests and not be disrupted or stressed by the public. When off the battlefield, she practices her main talent: ballet, her true love and passion.

### Powers & Abilities

Ballerina utilizes an enhanced athleticism core that grants her body extremely enhanced agility, balance, dexterity, endurance, flexibility, leaping ability, reflexes, speed, stamina and strength. These are all traits she reflects greatly in her ballet-focused combat. Using her gymnastic capabilities, Ballerina is enabled to perform incredible athletic feats through her core, channeling these abilities through her hoof-to-hoof combat.

Players will then have the option to respond with praise or criticism. Responding with praise will lead the player to be insulted by Ballerina and thrown out, while responding with criticism will cause the player to gain Ballerina's respect and her autograph.
