#Personality ;
As a foal, Cotton Candy is very energetic and tends to have a very optimistic outlook on like. She is almost always happy or excited about something, or at the very least excited about clouds. At a young enough age to still be very trusting and innocent, she tends to see everypony as being a good pony at heart. This includes some of the school meanies like Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon, even if she will occasionally grumble about them. Generally speaking though she is usually very friendly and tries to make friends when she can, though her trusting nature tends to make her easy to manipulate or con. Her best protection to this, however, tends to be she can really play up the innocent act when needed as she seen as being rather adorable by most ponies. This makes her very reliant on puppy-dog eyes when she wants something.
In terms of interests, Cotton Cloudy really likes clouds. She enjoys napping on them, learning about them, making them (with some help from unicorns at the moment for the sciency part), and just about anything with them. She hopes to one day to go into nephology; somepony who studies clouds. One of her odd interests in regards to this is trying to recreate the cotton candy clouds Discord made during his time in Ponyville; they just looked awesome and fun. Her biggest hope, however, is to one day make it much easier for non-pegasi to be able to walk on and enjoy clouds. While she knows of a cloud walking spell (as told to her by Twilight), that seemed too much effort.
#History ;
Cotton Cloudy was born to a pair of pegasi that resided in Ponyville instead of the usual Cloudsdale. They preferred the more quiet life on the ground than the hectic life of races and weather factories that made up Cloudsdale. Still, Cotton Cloudy was sent to the summer flying camps in order to keep up with other pegasi in learning the basics in flying. Even at her young age she has had some success in flying, but is still mostly ground-bound for the time being. Flight, however, has not really ever been Cotton Cloudy’s big dream. Instead, her eyes have been set on something else that, while sky related, wasn’t flight; clouds. Their soft, cushiony goodness cradled here during her failed flight attempts, and she would spend hours looking up at them to find out shapes of things. They served as endless hours of entertainment for her. It took something really big, however, for her to get her cutie mark in clouds.
The whole thing started during Discord’s reign of terror in Ponyville. While of course completely horrified at reality being destroyed around her, Cotton Cloudy was very interested in the cotton candy clouds that Discord had created. Once he was resealed and things got back to normal, she began to wonder if something like that could actually be made by normal ponies. After all, clouds were fun, and combining it with candy and chocolate milk could only make it better! So, trekking on down to the library, she began studying everything she could on clouds and how to make and manipulate them. Oh, and she asked her parents and some of the weather ponies as well.
Eventually science fair came to Miss Cheerilee’s school, and Cotton Cloudy had decided to make a cloud as her project. Enlisting Twilight to help her out with the magic needed for the cloud-making, Cotton Cloudy succeeded in creating a cloud and dragging it intact to school for all too see. After her presentation, including a theoretical discussion on how to let non-pegasi enjoy clouds, Cotton Cloudy found herself with a brand new cutie mark!
Still no success in making that cotton candy cloud though.The Roleplayer's Corner

”And so that concludes my report on cirrostratus clouds!” Cotton Cloudy said with a smile as she finally looked away from her paper and drawings and towards the class, of which was currently occupied by engaging in a class-wide moan.
“That was wonderful Cotton Cloudy and very informative,” Miss Cheerilee replied as she looked at the class.
The resulting applause that came from the Cotton Cloudy knew was just from the look, but she didn’t mind. She understood that many ponies could find clouds kind of boring; after all, they were just big, white, fluffy things made in a factory in Cloudsdale as far as most ponies were concerned. But she knew that beyond the fluffiness there was a whole wide world of wonder to explore. There were dozens upon dozens of different types of clouds, and the uses for them were as varied as your imagination was. Construction material, weather, napping spots, shade, and even just a simple game of “what’s that shape?” were just some of the many uses for them. So even if the rest of the class was bored, she was going to keep at it and educate them!
But that would have to be for another day as just at that time the bell rang and Miss Cheerilee dismissed the class to go home. After taking a moment to collect her materials and handing them over to the Miss Cheerilee, Cotton Cloudy headed outside. School was over and done, except for homework of course, so now it was time to play for a bit with her friends. Hopefully none of them had their parents already arrive and picked them up.
