Appearance[/font][/size]
Fur/Mane/Tail: Fluttershy's fur is a bright and sunny yellow, matching the rays of the sun in harmony. Her mane and tail share a complimentary light pink hue to match the bright yellow as well. Her mane is exceptionally long and seems to fall in a graceful way to the right side of her face and curl up on the end, but behind her head, it falls towards the left, with a similar curl. To match her long mane, the tail of the pegasus also is exceptionally long, going out for a bit then curving inward before hitting the ground and going outward, curling in a similar fashion as her mane as it is dragged upon the ground.
Clothes/Accessories: She typically goes au naturel except during the Gala and her modeling days.
Cutie Mark:
Fluttershy's cutie mark are three turquoise butterflies with pink wings. They represent the butterflies which saved her from dying when she fell from the clouds during flight school and also how her special ability is to communicate with animals in a way no one else can.
Overview: As far as ponies go, Fluttershy is a bit smaller than most other adult ponies, made worse due to the fact that she tends to cower down lower than the others, her head typically bowed in fear or in respect so as not to offend anyone. She's also a talented model and has all the right looks for a pony model and was once admired by all of Equestria. That being said, she has a figure which is considered very good by other ponies. Her normal yellow feathery wings are rather weak for the most part unless willed on by extreme emotion and she has a rather terrible fear of heights and will rarely fly higher than she must above the safe ground if at all possible.
Personality[/font][/size]
Personality Description:
She's a very timid pony and it is not unheard of for to fear even her own shadow at times, she has developed a sort of Pantophobia over the years. The pegasus is very uncomfortable around others and very soft spoken, except on rare occasions. Whenever Fluttershy finds herself in excessive fear, all her normal actions are put on alert and slowed significantly. The more fear of danger she is in, the less willing her body is to take action of any sort, even walking may become a chore. In times like these, Fluttershy's wings take a mind of their own and refuse to even move from her side and it can prove to be quite difficult.
Scolding herself is something she does often, especially when something goes wrong even if it isn't exactly her fault. "The Stare" is a talent she picked up over the years to control unruly animals and it sometimes works on unruly ponies. It has also been shown that Fluttershy does have an angry side which can come out when she is upset greatly. During this, her normal skills are amplified a good deal and all her inhibitions are lost to the wind until she achieves her objectives or just simply makes her point.
It should also be pointed out Fluttershy is considered an exceptionally beautiful pony in Equestria and became a very famous model for a short time. It was stated that she cannot do anything ungraceful of her own accord. Fluttershy tends to go out of her way with non-dangerous tasks if she thinks that it will help benefit a friend in some way, even if it means going out of her normal comfort zone, which is exceedingly small. She is a very sweet and gentle spirit and will always be one of the first to extend a helping hoof to those who need it. That being said, she will also let her fears get in the way of helping her friends, but she will always come through when they are in danger.
Fluttershy knows she is "awfully lucky to have friends who want her to be the best she can be". She will take criticism from them in stride and not begrudge them for it, because she knows they are just trying to help...even if they can be a little tough on her. And her friends trust her and look out for her equally in return and will do their best to make sure that her feelings aren't hurt by their actions or words for the most part, intentional or not. She is a very sweet soul and isn't used to meanness and acts accordingly, being reduce to tears easily.

History[/font]
History: Fluttershy was born straight into wealth. Though she wasn't born into the elite of Canterlot, she did make her home in the wondrous world of Cloudsdale and her parents had more than a bit of money. Her mother was born into a fortune as well though she did little more than socialize like her namesake, Southern Belle. Her father, War Bucks, was also wealthy, though more of his own hard work and entrepreneur intellect than pure family inheritance. His family was always upper class, but he rose above into the elite all on his own and became rather wealthy in his own right and even more so after marrying his wife.
It took less than a year after their marriage before Fluttershy was born and she was as cute as any little filly could be. However, one of her mean, older cousins from her mother's side decided to play a cruel joke when she was no more than a toddling filly of 3 and it scared her to tears, which she did not recover from for nearly a day before she finally went to sleep. Needless to say, it gave her a terrible fear of anything she did not know and to this day she still cannot remember what it was that scared her so badly.
However, due to this incident, their little girl found herself afraid of everything, even her own shadow at times, if you could believe that! It was quite the predicament and since the doctors told Southern Belle it was impossible for her to have any more children, they figured they had to make do. Though, with her father busy with whatever he did, Fluttershy never really understood it, and her mother being a social butterfly, they really didn't pay much attention to her and sent her off to other schools or various camps.
However, the parents did have a good many friends and one couple had a little girl just around Fluttershy's age. Though the polar opposite of her. Brash and very much a tomboy with a serious need for speed, they didn't often do much together, to be honest. However, they were far from enemies of any sort. They did have a good friendship together, though unlikely as it may seem.
One day during flight school, Fluttershy was in the midst of being bullied, something that happened quite often. Rainbow Dash had always stood up for her in the past and this time was no exception. Out of nowhere, Rainbow Dash appeared to protect her and got the two away from her and into a race. However, being the starter proved to be dangerous as she was knocked off the clouds to her death. Or, so it would have been had a herd of hundreds of butterflies stopped her from hitting the ground. It was such a wonderful place on the ground. The animals and...then the Sonic Rainboom which was more beautiful than anything she had then seen.
It was during that time that she found herself far more at home with the animals then any pony she had known and able to communicate with them on a deeper level then others could communicate with animals. She had decided not to return to her cloud home and her family had decided it was for the best. The purchased land and the home she now lives in for their daughter and send her regular checks every month to support her. Though, she had become quite the animal expert and has found ways to support herself. However, it wasn't always the case.
Before she could contact her parents, she found herself exceedingly hungry, that was when she met her second friend. A pony named Applejack who spoke with the same accent as her mother but with a much less refined quality to it. However, she was very nice and did introduce her family to Fluttershy, Big Mac and Granny Smith. Apple Bloom had not been born at this time, and she also fed her for nothing out of friendship and, though she had been shy, she was grateful.
Rarity was next and Rarity was the first person to note just what model potential Fluttershy had, already on her way to be the fashionista she is. Pinkie Pie scared her out of her wits in a sneak attack from the bushes and Fluttershy had to be dragged from her home after retreating to it!
And as the years wore on, she became the animal expert and kind friend she is known as today, developing the Stare as a defensive mechanism against the dangerous predators which may loom near the borders of her home. And as the years wore on and she grew closer to her friends, of whom Rainbow Dash was counted apart of having come to live with her friend in Ponyville, Fluttershy grew a bit more out of her shell with each year. And when she was 17, she met Twilight Sparkle who was accepted into the unusual clique of friends and then her real growth for herself began, including helping to save Equestria twice and learning about the magic of friendship as she grew with her 5 best friends.
Roleplay Sample: Oh, dear. This was supposed to be the day she promised to meet with Rarity and it looked like this filly was going to be late for the fitting. How would she ever explain this to Rarity? Well, better late then never, right? A furry foot pounded on the back of her leg with gusto and as her cerulean eyes looked towards the small white woodland creature, they found a stern look coupled with a presented clock to show just how late she was. He was right, of course. Angel tended to always be right in such matters and she had to leave right now. But, fear couldn't help but sweep over her, clouding her thoughts and better judgement. Ever since that last horrible incident with Photofinish and stardom. Not that could really happen again, right? No one was going to force her into being a model...would they? Now a new danger to worry about presented itself just now, but a promise was indeed a promise and she slowly began make her way to the door.
However, once more the fear stopped her in the open doorway and she turned around to give a nervous smile to the small bunny.
"Well, maybe I should just wa-....You're right. I did promise...heh heh. I'm going now."
Weakly giggled the filly as she shut the door behind her and trotted a little ways, stopping to pick up the clock. Angel had thrown it at her head out of annoyance for the delay, she had dodged it but it was scary nonetheless. And the trek to Ponyville and Carousel Boutique was now fully under hoof, now there could be no turning back now. What would happen would happen and the more she walked along the dirt path, the sillier the notion that she would be dragged into the high-glamor world of fashion became.
After all, Rarity wouldn't ask her to do something she didn't want to and if she had a choice, Fluttershy would not willingly accept. Debate in her mind of the future raged on, her parents did seem so proud when she was a model, but it felt so uncomfortable. The time it took seemed to be paled and within moments Fluttershy had arrived at the beautiful architecture that was Rarity's shop.
It would take a firm grasp to enter, however, enter she would...eventually, with a deep breath and soft touch of her nose against the doorbell. She was invited, but Rarity was busy designing the new line of clothes, it was best not to barge in when she might be in the middle of a creative genius. Or, that was the train of thought that dominated her mind. So, she would wait until the door was opened and she was invited in.
