rarity

Rarity is a unicorn with an ivory white coat, and a medium purple mane and tail. Her eyes are blue, and she has long eyelashes, which are revealed to be fake in the Season 2 episode "MMMystery on the Friendship Express". She has a cutie mark of three blue diamonds in a circle.While Rarity cares about her appearance quite a bit, being averse to stepping in mud or risking getting herself messy, she is not above getting her hooves dirty when it comes to helping her friends or creatures in need. She slices off her own tail to calm down the sea serpent in Friendship is Magic Part 2, willing to sacrifice her beauty to help restore the distressed serpent's "fabulosity". This action earns her the element of generosity, and later, when she activates the element, her tail is restored. The episode Suited For Success heavily revolves around Rarity's generosity, as she is willing to not only make five unique dresses for her friends for the Grand Galloping Gala but additionally re-work and redesign them as her friends desire. The overworking runs Rarity ragged and, despite her friends' designs being horrible fashion-wise, she continues making them in order to satisfy her friends. At the end of the episode, Rarity's friends realize that her original dresses were beautiful and perfectly matched for each of them, and that they should not have taken advantage of Rarity's generosity.Lauren Faust was inspired to create Rarity by G1 ponies Glory and Sparkler.[2] In the preliminary character designs posted by Faust, Rarity originally had Sparkler's color scheme and cutie mark. In her final design, Rarity only kept Sparkler's cutie mark while her color scheme was changed to match Glory's. Rarity shares her name with G3 Rarity (voiced by Cathy Weseluck, who coincidentally voices Spike in G4), but she shares distinct traits with G3 Rainbow Dash, such as her Trans-Atlantic English accent and an interest in fashion. Spike's crush on Rarity was not planned out from the beginning. When Lauren
