Background

Ivy's ancestors claim descent from Revolution Rosie, whose ideology of ponyism is prevalent in Trenchtown, and who sought refuge in the Dusts following the catastrophe before eventually settling in Trenchtown. Despite the greater likelyhood of her family being descendants of Rosie's sister, whose family wasn't sold on the idea of ponyism, the Ivy family house have succesfully played their family relation up to become accepted and respected members of Trenchtown. Their family scions become educated, contributing ponies such as Ivy Bridge the architect. But their fortunes have sunk as Parlour Ivy, a mare of negotiable affections, had to use a great deal of influence to get her daughter Ivy League accepted into a promising higher education and a job working in Trenchtown's horticultural research academy. Performing acceptably, she became a junior member of the research staff. But her propensity for stealing her colleague's research data that they were witholding in their bids to gain recognition for a famous breakthrough to make this research openly available ruffled their feathers. Hoping to let tempers cool down over time, Ivy's supervisor sent her on a field research mission to procure samples from more agriculturally focussed settlements in the Dusts, and so she finds herself in The Edge, the first stop on her trip.

Skills

Ivy is intelligent, but has some sticky hooves. She has knowledge of growing and analyzing plants and their use is remedies and potions. She can also make a wide variety of other mixtures through alchemy that are far less beneficial. Her mother's example has allowed her to learn a great deal on how to acquire information through manipulation and theft, and she has frequently used this to expose secrets kept by others. She inexplicably blends into her surroundings, allowing her to do her work. Disturbingly, she has an affinity for using cruel and sadistic tricks and backstabbing to dispose of enemies she can't reason with. At the same time, she has the skills of a medic and can heal others either in emergencies or through brewing healing items.
