Curio was born to Snazzy and Fancy Trinket in Manehattan, the younger of three siblings. His parents were the owners of Dreamland Dwellings, one of the largest real estate companies in Equestria, and as such they were constantly busy. They had strict expectations for their children, however, and whatever free time they had with them was spent preparing them to take over the family business. While Curio's older twin siblings—Bauble and Bizzy—were eager to do so, determined to gain their parents' approval, spending his life as a corporate real estate broker didn't appeal to Curio at all. A naturally creative soul, he was fascinated by arts and crafts from a young age, spending much of his time crafting his own trinkets and gadgets. 

On Bauble and Bizzy's birthday one year, Snazzy and Fancy were so busy that they completely forgot about it, spending the whole day on a business trip instead of with their children. Curio made his dejected siblings matching brooches as a birthday gift, which cheered them up tremendously. It was at that moment Curio realized he could use his passion and talent for creating things to make the lives of others brighter, and with this realization came his cutie mark. Bauble and Bizzy still wear the brooches their little brother made them to this day.

As Curio grew older, he began to clash more with his parents about his interests, and his siblings—while sympathetic—didn't have the courage to stand up for him, too afraid to disappoint their strict parents. Upon realizing Snazzy and Fancy would never approve of his passion, he opted to leave and live his life on his own terms. He moved halfway across Equestria to Canterlot and opened up his own gift shop, Curio's Hoofmade Haven, where he made all of the merchandise himself. While he had picked up some business tips from his parents, his tiny shop easily became lost among the bigger and fancier businesses of Canterlot, and he soon found himself struggling to keep his business afloat. 

One fateful day, a unicorn mare stumbled into the shop, having gotten lost while exploring the city. After tripping over her own mane and breaking one of his most expensive items, Curio learned a few things about this mare: her name was Fairy Tale, she had recently moved to Canterlot, and she had no permanent housing or job. Taking pity on her, Curio struck her a deal: he would allow her to stay with him in his loft above the shop, and in return, she would work in his store and help him promote it until she made enough to pay him back for the damage. She accepted, and a friendship bloomed between the two of them that would last a lifetime.

curio is generally a friendly, charming, and suave businesspony. beneath his easygoing nature, however, is an extremely passionate and hardworking guy. he takes his craft seriously and refuses to put anything less than his best into it, making him very particular and very much a perfectionist. he tends to get carried away when he's in arts and crafts mode, and someone else often has to remind him to take a break. curio is a free spirit who marches to the beat of his own drum; he strongly values freedom of choice and doesn't appreciate anyone telling him what to do or how to live his life. because of this, he tends to butt heads with "leader" types. he also tends to hold grudges, like against his parents, who he refuses to speak to or forgive for not supporting him.
