Background/History
As a filly Tera enjoyed exploring the nearby forests. She had gained the trust of her parents to go out on her own so long as she didn't go off too far, but Tera found the nearby area all too familiar, so she continued to explore deeper, finding remnants of cut stone and what might have once been a building. They filled her with wonder, though she dared not tell anyone about them lest she find herself in trouble for going out too far. One day in her travels a curious pool of water caught her eye between an outcrop of rock. It was a stone ring with mirror like pool of water, she poked her hoof into it when suddenly she was pulled in. After nearly feeling like she would drown unable to surface she found herself ejected from the pool in a completely unfamiliar area, the vegetation was different, the air different. She was completely lost. She wondered for days, tired and hungry until what she stumbled in what could only be described as a 2 legged deer. Both confused they talked briefly and Tera told him what had happened after deciding that he seemed friendly. The deer offered to take her home with him, not wanting to wander the forest any longer she accepted. Soon she became a permanent guest and slowly grew accustomed to her new life. Though being in this new world away from her family and everything she knew was not without it challenges.
tl;dr falls in ancient forest portal as a filly, ends up on another planet, found and more or less adopted by Orion.
There's a longer story with dialogue, details, and all that in the works, but i'm slow.
Relatives/Family
Mother and Father - these characters have yet to be made, but I probably will eventually.
No siblings. Probably some other random relatives.
World/Setting
I don't have much written up for it yet, but the short of it is a well established colony on an earth like planet populated with anthropomorphic animals as well as some more "alien" races. The main feature of the planet is a large city where a large portion of the population lives. They're technologically advanced, space fairing civilization. I'll probably have a different post with all that information in the future. I have a loose back story in mind for the history of the colony and the origin of it's people. It's pretty loose though so I won't go into at this time.
Accessories
Prosthetic Horn: a tool she came up with to help her work in a world made for hands, obviously inspired by the unicorns of Equestria she had seen technology with similar capabilities. With the help of some more skilled and dexterous individuals they were able to come up with a telekinetic horn, probably one of her first major projects along her career path. I haven't fully considered the extents to it's power yet, but when equipped it allows her to levitate objects and with practice can be used with great precision, it can't lift anything toooo heavy maybe like 50lb max. Though she may have other horns with different capabilities. She'd probably experiment with adding energy discharges to the design, so it could be used for defense, stunning, cutting, etc. Her concern as it is thought controlled would be accidentally setting it off. It can also be used to interface with compatible equipment to sending inputs to control it. It does require charging, though how often depends on use.
