Name: Fanciful Dreams
Age: Equuish equivalent of early 20s
Sex: Not that anypony but them actually knows this as yet, but they are hermaphroditic.
Gender: Still figuring this out. Fanciful doesn't have a good idea how to define themselves in this arena.
Species: Pony
Sub-species/race: Thestral / Batpony
Physical Appearance: Fanciful is perhaps the fluffiest batpony you've ever seen: their sand-colored coat flares out to long fetlocks at the hocks, and their auburn mane and tail (and the dark blue streak in them) are huge, poofy, and full of ringlets. Amethyst eyes look out of an inquisitive face, and their leathery wings are long and strong. Their build is a bit larger than most thestrals; Fanciful is not delicate by any means.
Personality: Fanciful Dreams seems at first not to live up to their name: they are a bit on the serious side, don't appear to be all that interested in shenanigans, and have a quiet, dry wit. Their eyes light up whenever there is action going on, though, and despite apparent reluctance they are quite likely to jump in and help with - cause - a bit of mischief.
Fancy (as some call them) grew up relatively sheltered but highly educated. And proud of it: they like showing off their vocabulary and being seen as intelligent, sometimes to a fault. Even so, they are quick to respond modestly to praise and would be horrified if it became clear that anypony felt less or bad for anything they said. They are very approachable and eager to learn how others go about their lives.
Feel free to say hello – who knows what warmth and camaraderie are hiding under all that fluffiness?
Special talent: None has manifested as yet; they don't even have a cutie mark, and don't seem to mind this apparent "lack".
Family: Raised in a thestral creche, they take a rather communal view of foal-raising. They view Luna as a non-literal Mother, and have several creche-mates, but they don't have much contact with them.
Goals, ambitions, aspirations: Fancy only recently emerged from a creche rather far removed from Canterlot or Ponyville. Their main goal is to find a way for a fluffy thestral with few skills other than a kindly nature to get along in the world. On the way they would like to see what all the fuss is about relationships, as their view of them is a little odd to most ponies.
Strengths: A strong, capable flyer with considerable endurance. Unruffled by most strangeness, danger, or problems. FLUFFY!
Obvious weaknesses or vulnerabilities: None. Not even to themselves, other than an awareness that they are not particularly worldly.
History: Born somewhere between Canterlot and the Crystal Kingdom, Fancy was raised with a group of other thestrals in an isolated creche. The return of Luna, the emergence of the Crystal Kingdom, and the side effects of Tirek's attack were felt there, and with some trepidation several representatives were selected (all volunteered) to go out and see just what in the world was going on. It was a long flight, but Fancy enjoys flying, so they managed to reach a town - having bypassed Canterlot semi-deliberately - without too much trouble. Now they are exploring Ponyville and its surroundings with an eye toward finding somewhere to settle that can deal with their peculiarities, including the thestral tendency to seek and foster snuggle-piles.
Place of Residence: Currently cloud-surfing near Ponyville.
