It says she's my persona on dA (she kinda is, appearance-wise), but I'm currently trying to distinguish her from myself by adding different character traits. I'd love to hear some input/suggestions.

Name:
Helena "Truffle" Pop (never goes by her first name)
Age:
Around 17-18, if I ever do timeskips she'll probably be 23-25
Personality:
Quirky and a tad eccentric. A bit of a tomcolt. She's creative but tends to overthink simple things, which is why she's horrible at following directions. Since she's grown up around ponies her whole life (her mom and brother are both pegasi as well), she'll sometimes ponder about what things would be like if she were like them, namely what her cutie mark would be. Not much of an athlete, try as she might.
Background:
Truffle was born in Baltimare to Cake (griffon father) and Bubble Pop (pony mother), and grew up there for most of her childhood with her younger brother Fudge. When her father's job required them to relocate to Las Pegasus, she was enthralled by the shows, sights and overall spectacle of the city. She let as much of it as she could influence her creative output, and by the time she entered high school accumulated quite a collection of drawings, sculptures, and other projects. Being an engineering major since freshman year, she's learned to incorporate more technical elements into her work, and hopes to eventually find work as a cloud or crystal architect.
Fun facts:
-Truffle's a very good archer, since it's one of the few sports she can actually participate in without tiring
-She owns a pet scorpion named Dante
-Despite having a pegasus as a mother, Truffle displays no visible pony traits. Likewise, her brother is a pegasus with no visible griffon traits.
-She can manipulate very small amounts of wind and clouds, but never enough to cause a tornado or storm.
Like I said, I'd love to hear some feedback!
