History:

Scootaloo was born to two loving parents who showered her with as much love and affection as they could upon the filly. Even at a young age, the orange Pegasus wondered what life would be like having a cool older sister who could teach her things as she grew up. Unfortunately Scootaloo was the only pony in her family besides of course her parents, making her dream just a mere fantasy. Her parents knew that their filly was unique as she seemed to reject the more stereotypical girly things in favor of things like the outdoors, competing in races and sports with others. This made her seem awkward in the eyes of some of her peers, but she took it all in stride in favor of having fun.

At her birthday Scootaloo received perhaps the greatest gift she ever had from her parents, a blue scooter with red wheels. From that day on the filly and her ride were inseparable as she used it more often to go places with than by trotting or galloping. After a time Scootaloo desired to find a way to go faster and to try out more elaborate stunts on her scooter. Seeing how other Pegasai used their wings to fly, she thought that perhaps she could use her wings to propel her when she was on her ride. After flapping her wings as hard as she could, she learned that not only could she now move on her scooter without needing her hooves or a hill to go, she could also achieve even faster speeds when riding. This allowed her to try out more stunts of hers and as a side effect more crashes. Yet despite any setbacks, she continues to perform stunts.

One day when Scootaloo was riding her scooter, she caught sight of a strange rainbow flying through the sky. Upon a closer look, she found that it was a Pegasus who was creating the rainbow, performing all sorts of stunts in the sky that the orange filly could only dream of doing. She gathered up the courage and finally greeted the Pegasus who introduced herself as Rainbow Dash. From that day on Scootaloo admired the Pegasus and sought to emulate her as much as she could in the hopes that when she grew up she would be just like her as well as try to learn from Rainbow Dash as much as Scootaloo could. Her devotion to the rainbow manned pony went as far as to create a club in honor of Rainbow Dash and celebrating her awesomeness.

Despite her desire to be like Rainbow Dash, Scootaloo had one problem that prevented her from being like her idol. Her wings unfortunately haven’t fully developed yet to allow her to fly, something that she wishes to be able to do quite possibly as much as she wants to find her mark. This desire is fueled by the fact that many of her Pegasus classmates are already flying and that by learning to fly she could perhaps spend more time with Rainbow Dash. Although she tries to make it like it isn’t a big deal, deep down Scootaloo feels grounded, unable to achieve her dreams as being an awesome flyer like her idol.

Her inability to fly combined with not having her cutie mark yet has made Scootaloo the target of some bullies in her class, namely Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon. Despite this she does fairly well in school and even met two other fillies, Apple Bloom and Sweetie Belle, who lack cutie marks themselves. The three decided to form a club to discover their talent together, hoping to get their marks all at once. Even though they have been unsuccessful thus far, the three have had fun adventures with each other and became good friends.

Recently Scootaloo, who tried to prove herself to her friends, classmates, and Rainbow Dash faced several nightmares while on a camping trip. After meeting a certain Princess of the night in one nightmare and being rescued by Rainbow Dash, she confessed how she gets scared sometimes as well as admitting how she wanted Rainbow Dash to be like her sister. After the rainbow manned Pegasus confessed how she used to be scared when she was Scootaloo’s age and agreed to take the filly under her wing, Scootaloo was happy that she had not only found a pony that could be like an older sister to her but also that she felt confident enough that she didn’t have to prove anything to Rainbow Dash. All she has to be is her friend and that's really all Scootaloo ever wanted.

Character Summary:

Scootaloo is a filly who likes to prove to others how awesome she is. While she’s not boastful, the orange Pegasus seeks to prove her mettle to others by the way she acts and the things that she does. She is a bit of a tomboy who prefers sports and competition to frilly girly things as she feels these are “uncool.” In particular, Scootaloo prefers the extreme sports like riding a zip line or hiking through the Everfree Forest as a means to not only do fun and exciting things but to perhaps get her cutie mark in doing something awesome. She also is not a fan of big displays of emotions which she calls “mushy stuff” although sometimes gives in to these events like when she tried to help Cheerilee fall in love with Big Macintosh.

Her attempts to prove herself stem from meeting Rainbow Dash and how she seeks to be cool like her. In her mind Scootaloo used to think that the rainbow manned Pegasus was a strong pony who showed few if any faults and thus sought to mirror that perception with her. After learning how Rainbow Dash was afraid of things as a filly, Scootaloo has learned to not judge herself too harshly and to accept herself as whom she was with both flaws and positive qualities.

Scootaloo is very loyal to her friends and seeks to help her fellow Crusaders in any way she can. She is very protective of them especially when confronting bullies as Scootaloo knows what it feels like being bullied due to her inability to fly and not having her cutie mark. She is still a little downtrodden not being able to fly beyond hovering in the air for a while, especially when others bring it up to her, but she tries to not feel upset and hopes one day she can fly like the others.

In addition to her interests in preforming stunts on her scooter, having fun with the Cutie Mark Crusaders, and playing sports, Scootaloo is also good at dancing and playing the piano although looks at these as hobbies instead as potential avenues of getting her cutie mark.

Scootaloo seeks to continue what she has been doing before with helping her friends get their cutie marks, learning to fly, having fun, and developing a closer friendship with Rainbow Dash. One thing is for certain, Scootaloo seeks to do all these things with her own cool style!
