Despite making jokes about "chatting up the mares" he really does care about anypony he wants to be with, However when he's got a crush he'll turn a bit shy. When Cloud was in a foal he was invited to play a game with some friends, Cloud joined into the card game and one with a full house, and on his way home from his victory he stumbled across a sack with a hundred bits in it, he looked around to see if anyone had dropped it but the only other pony around was a cute filly from his class, he trotted over and asked if she would go on a date with him; upon her saying yes he received his cutie mark, a pair of dice! A couple of years after receiving his cutie mark, he discovered that it had a Dark Side to it. While he got happiness with his good luck he would feel sorrow with his bad luck. When he was an older colt his family home burned down and he was left with nothing, he felt like it was his fault because of his luck. He was the only one to get out and he travels to avoid looking back on his past and running from any bad luck that could follow him. On one of Cloud's adventures he spent some time with a traveling sword smith who taught him how to fight, even in a peaceful land like Equestria you still have to watch out for trouble. As Cloud grew up he found himself writing in a journal, he wrote about all of the things he saw and was able to get his journal published. He is known as an adventurer and hopes that ponies of all ages enjoy his tales. Cloud's published works have given him more money than he really needs, but he donates a lot of it to charity, especially those for families who are homeless because of natural disasters(fires). Despite claiming to find new adventures, Cloud really travels so that his bad luck won't hurt anypony else.
