Personality
Likes: When it comes to socializing, she enjoys talking to ponies who likes to talk. She is a good listener and just hearing what others have to say entertain her enough even thou she might not say anything during the conversation. She likes to meet new ponies and doesn't mind anyone talking to her if they want to, she is open and kind at first meeting but can be harder to get to know later on. She likes it when others share her interests for spices and flowers, she's also an animal lover and loves to be out in the sun.
Dislikes: Ponies who are very forward or complains a lot irritates her, she can listen to others opinions and such but can't stand it if they complain about the same thing more then once or many things at the same time. She's not really good at actually walking up and greeting ponies and just walks around with a hope of somepony else to greet her first. High speed and pegasus racing isn't her thing and she doesn't like to be high up. She can't stand rain and doesn't like to read.
Strengths: Shes a creative pony who can quickly come up with ideas and solutions quickly and doesn't doubt her own ideas before somepony else does it. She is positive and good at motivation others as well as being a good company for others. She isn't very patient but neither very patient, somewhere in between but is understanding to situations where she has to wait. She's strong mentally and doesn't take critic or comments personally, she can also easily block out noises and has very great focus when she concentrates. Physically, she's a great runner and has strong legs.
Weaknesses: She's always been a bit insecure about herself, how she looks and if she's good enough. She doesn't take critic about her looks go inn on her, but just normal positive comments makes her think about her looks twice the next day and see herself differently for one day before forgetting about it. She's very forgetful for mostly numbers, names or important occasions. Since she didn't go to a proper school as little, her knowledge on history and math together with other important stuff exept reading and writing, is quite weak.
Even thou she sometimes try, she never succeeds with standing up for somepony when they are in trouble, in a situation like that she'll only be afraid of getting in bigger trouble herself for not minding her own business.
Fears: Not being good enough. If someone would show it or start saying that she wasn't good enough for anything, she would start getting more and more insecure about herself which would also affect her social skill and it would make her shyer and almost unable to talk to other ponies.
General Personality: Seeing Niara for the first time, she may appear as a silent and serious type. She might be silent, but the seriousness is all in the way she is taught to behave and act. She is a graceful mare and likes to stay proper and how she has always been, changes in her life like losing someone or getting in a relationship is hard for her as she doesn't really deal changes that good. When something isn't like it's supposed to be, she will start trying to fix it.
Shes a kind pony when you get to talk to her and she doesn't have a hard time socializing, but she's not really a forward or open pony in any way so she struggles with starting conversations or asking questions in fear of sounding stupid or to say something wrong. What is also struggles with are comments, both negative and positive once. She is insecure about herself because she felt that she wasn't good enough for anything or anyone and doesn't want ponies to comment on her looks or her personality even thou it's a nice comment. She doesn't take it inn and only blushes and hides away, not knowing how to handle it. She also has a hard time responding properly after getting a comment.
Always treating ponies like they should be treated, but sometimes she may feel like she has to stay silent for some ponies if they are (mostly) stallions that are much bigger then her. Because of something that happened in her past, she is slightly malevolent and doesn't really get along with them if they look scary to her. And even if they aren't that buff or big, just that they are taller or maybe acts like a leader and alike will make her think that they are more important and she will try not to bother them.

History
Father: Richy Spice, passed away when he was 31.
Mother: Silver Song, 41, unknown occupation and home location.
Siblings: None
Other: Nothing, really.
History: In a small town in Saddle Arabia, she came to the world at her home. Meeting her aunt and her cousins as they where there under the birth, her mother was disappointed. They where a poor family and didn't have the money to get into a hospital to check on anything, her mother had been hoping for a stallion to take over the farm they owned together with her fathers childhood friend. Even thou her mother was unhappy, her father treated her like a princess. He used to call her his "desert queen" and thought that she would grow up to be somepony important, therefore naming her Niara - one of high purpose.
When her father died later that year she was born, before he died he made a promise to his wife to treat her like the most important pony in the world. But even thou she promised him to do so, she could never look at her with any other expression than disappointment or disgust. She just couldn't believe that Niara wasn't born a stallion like she wanted and always kept saying how she wasn't good enough.
Most of Niaras life from when she was five until she was ten was filled with strict learning of manners and how a lady should behave properly. She told her that "if you can't use it for what you want, find another purpose for it" and therefor made her do different chores and almost work like she was a maid for her. And when she just turned 10, Niara had had enough. She was tired of her mother treating her the way she did and stood up against her, expressing her feelings and letting go of the heavy burden of fear to talk back at her. But she then again learned that watching her mouth and keeping to herself was the most safe option, her mother hit her and yelled her out on everything she had done wrong as response until Niara where in tears. So later that night, she packed her things and decided to run away, which she did successfully. Saying goodbye to her childhood home and left at midnight to the bigger town of Saddle Arabia where she could get shelter and transport.
She found somewhere to live for a while and stayed there for two years at a small bar in the biggest town, working as a cleaner. The owner was a wealthy, independent mare who owned both the bar, a small camel farm and two popular stands filled with exotic spices from all over Equestria. Niara one day came to the owner and asked if she could teach her some things about spices, and she was quick learner. The art of taste and spices where something she used two years on to learn, became her main interest and hobby. She proved herself worthy of working at one of the spice stands at the market when she was 14 and she was glowing with enthusiasm and joy, making even more customers. At the end, the bar owner gave her full responsibility to the stand and gave her the agreement papers and allowance papers for the market when she turned 15 as a gift. Even thou the owner where so nice to her, they didn't really talk that much and never learned anything about her backstory but she didn't want to stay in the past and worked in the precense.
For the next two years, she earned her bits from the stand and got her own small apartment that she lived inn but figured that it wasn't her thing so she sold it and bought tools and fabric to make her own little tent. And one day when she wanted to do something different, she gathered the most exotic and exclusive spices and took them with her to make a smaller stand that she also could bring with her in the tent. She carried the tent and spices in a small cart without a roof on and three wheels, having her in the front to steer.
She went around in Equestria for two years, she travelled around until she found the small city between Baltimare and Phillydelphia. The peace that it had, the nice nature and that it wasn't too big made her attracted to it. And that draws up until today, two months after she turned 19 and has just arrived at the place she hopes to be her new home.

Out Of Character
Name: Jenna, or Jenn. It's okay to call me Niara too thou.
Roleplay Sample:
--- The dry pebble road leading towards the streets of the city was far too long, the cart she was dragging on started to make her hooves and shoulders. She had walked for almost the whole day and just thinking about stopping and taking a break just made her even more tired, but she could see the city sign and had to last for just a little longer. She hadn't been walking for so long any other day in a long time and she started feeling that she might had to start working out or at least try to get a bit stronger, getting tired by this only made her feel older and the last thing she wanted was to act like a old mare.
--- When she had found a good spot at the market after signing a agreement and being allowed to sell there, she finally got to take the cart harness off and take a break. She felt as light as a feather as she sat down and let out a long, pleased sigh with a weird smile on her face as she relaxed. She was tempted to close her eyes and fall asleep, but she knew she had to get the tent and stand up before she could do that. Just as she was about to move, she felt her hooves being too heavy to lift, so she sat on the same place for almost 15 minutes. "Some on Niara, you can't sit here all day!" she said to herself and stood up, looking over at the cart with the tent and spices in. She knew it was quite some work but it had to be done, she moved towards it and started working with a small sigh.
