Rule 63 MLP Blueblood:

The Princess was born into the oldest and highest of the Canterlot Unicorn families, who traced their lineage fifty-four generations back to Princess Platinum herself, hence the royal honorific. While the official and legal position of the family diminished with the ascension and reign of Celestia and Luna, it has vigorously maintained its position at the top of the social scene and hierarchy in Canterlot. By ancient tradition, the eldest foal of each generation is raised as a ward of the Crown: symbolic of the merging of the old order with the new. Bluebelle had lived in the Royal Court since she was four, and though Princess Celestia had genuine affection for her, she had long since learned that "Auntie" was more inclined to assign her tasks that she deemed would improve her character than to rescue her from the consequences of her behavior. Her cutie mark, an eight-sided compass rose, appeared during her adolescence. The Princess described the circumstances that led to the mark as "a moment of profound navigational enlightenment" and her "destined role as a guiding light for ponykind!" while palace staff remembers it as "the time young Bluebelle managed to get herself lost in the hedge maze for six hours without being willing to call for help." As a filly, Bluebelle's education was extensive and costly. She speaks Old Ponish with passable pronunciation, can identify any fine wine by its region of origin, dances with precision if not enthusiasm, and is possessed of a theoretical understanding in matters of governance that has never been put to the test. Her magical skills are competent yet unremarkable, a result of her "refined sensitivity", as she puts it. Charity is among her virtues, so long as the act doesn't involve unpleasantness but rather galas, photographs and plaques. Above all, Bluebelle believes that ponies of her breeding naturally radiate virtue to lesser ponies merely by being. Though her moments of kindness are rare, they exist all the same. And those who know her well,a small number, to be sure, as she finds most ponies beneath her, admit that beneath the preening and entitlement lies something almost akin to a decent pony, one who occasionally surprises others with flashes of insight. Princess Celestia has been heard to mutter that "she'll get there eventually." The Princess respects, admires, and adores her. Her relationship with her other "Auntie" has proven more difficult; Princess Luna has far less patience for her antics, and does not care for the title besides.
