Name: StarStruck
Nickname(s): Starst, "Highbeams" (because her eyes glow bright yellow along with her horn when she uses magic)
Gender: Female
Age: Young Mare/19ish
Species: Unicorn
Fur/Hide Color: Extremely light teal/seafoam, with two dark blue beauty marks near the outer corner of her left eye.
Mane/Tail Color & Style: Dark blue, with a medium-long mane almost always kept in a braid and a long tail with an orange streak through it.
Eye Color: Orange
Cutie Mark: A regular yellow star padded by a larger orange star swirling counter-clockwise similar to a pinwheel.
Build: Average height and lithe.
Residence: A windmill for milling grain on the outskirts of Ponyville, of which most of the inside is plastered with posters, cardboard cutouts, artwork and other autographed memorabilia that dramatically contrasts the simple-looking exterior.
Occupation: Windmill Caretaker and Celebratory Pyrotechnician
Talents/Strengths: Encouraging other's talents (she's the uber-fan), entertaining (using light/weather spells, which she refers to as her "movie magic" as she can create realistic-looking facsimiles of natural occurrences and pyrotechnics without the risk of injury/lack of control for scheduling), looking out for others' safety, determination and reliability.
Mother: WonderStruck (nee WonderWall)
Father: ThunderStruck
Other Family: LoveStruck (Crazy Stallion-Chasing Aunt)
Motivation: StarStruck wants nothing more than to hone her magic enough to become a special effects master in Baleywood, city of lights, cameras and action, where she can be surrounded by and work with all the biggest names in Equestria and wow everypony with her theatrical prowess.
Likes: Celebrities, magic, reading tabloids, collecting autographs, breezy days, making firework-like displays, dancing.
Dislikes: Bullying, spicy food (it "tastes like pain"), only doing something halfheartedly, pessimists, even the slightest bit of harm coming to her collection, rudeness.
Weaknesses/Flaws: Spazzes out/goes "fanfilly" if in the presence of any kind of celebrity or somepony she chooses to idolize, tends to believe everything she reads in the tabloids (and occasional idle gossip around town) without thinking critically, has no sense of smell and can't cook/bake to save her own life.
Fears: Never making it to Baleywood, losing her magic, being shunned by one of her idols, and complete darkness.
Personality: StarStruck is a fanfilly through and through. She loves following the exploits of Equestria's Most Talented, be they thespians, musicians, fashion designers, athletes, etc., which means collecting paraphernalia and autographs to surround herself with at home and reading up on the latest celebrity news and gossip. She longs to live and work among her heroes and hopes to one day be rich and famous herself through her own efforts. Friendly and extroverted, she's always up for a good party and enjoys using her skills to add her own bit of entertainment to any occasion. Unfortunately she can have something of a one-track mind when it comes to her hobbies, dropping everything if she hears that a celebrity is in town or there's a new limited edition piece of merchandise to get. She wouldn't go so far as to stalk anypony, but she's the type of fan that wouldn't hesitate to strike up a conversation with somepony famous and ask for an autograph/photo while singing their praises. Safe to say StarStruck is great when one's ego needs inflating. However, if she's denied her passion in some way or has a bad encounter with a celebrity she's prone to bouts of deep hide-in-the-corner-under-a-raincloud-of-despair depression until somepony snaps her out of it.
