Character Summary:

Born to Sunshine Halo and Silver Soldier, Cinnamon spent much of her foal years growing up on her family’s plantation on one of the smaller islands in the Gallopocus chain. She learned the basics of caring for pineapple plants and working with others, and every day was full of new adventures, from playing along the black sand beaches to eating fresh pineapple right from the field.

Yet all good things must eventually end, and when she just reached filly-hood her parents sent her off to Canterlot for education. At first she was terrified. The weather was cold, and for her first few weeks rainy as well, she didn’t know any other ponies, and it was the first time she had been separated from her parents. Her life was miserable, or so she thought, and outside of class hours she retreated to her room, and ultimately to her writing, trying to get her emotions down on parchment so that they would hopefully stop raging inside of her.

A week, and then two, passed, and staff, as well as her classmates, began to worry about her. She would miss meals, and even when she showed up she didn’t eat much. Finally, a group of fellow classmates decided that they should do something about it, and so the next day they went to her room with a tray of food when she failed to show for dinner meal. Finding the door unlocked, they cautiously entered, only to see her curled up on her bed, quill pen furiously dancing over a piece of parchment. She was so caught up in her writing that she didn’t notice the other ponies enter her room, and they were fine with not interrupting her. When she finished her latest poem, and realized that the door was open, she looked at the other ponies in shock. Several tear-filled hours later, the other ponies left the room, carrying an empty tray with them.

The next day saw Cinnamon willingly, though tentatively, set hoof outside of her room outside of class hours. By the end of the day, word had spread throughout the entire boarding school of her poems, and other fillies and colts were asking to look at her work. At first unable to believe that she was actually that good at writing poetry, a week later her classmates were still asking her to show them more of her poems, or even write some as the case may be. Finally realizing that they wanted to see her work not out of pity or politeness, but rather out of actual, genuine interest, she discovered her cutie mark.

By the time she graduated from the boarding school, Cinnamon’s poems had been published in the school’s newspaper repeatedly, and even in several of the literary magazines popular in Canterlot. She returned to her family’s home on the Gallopocus Islands, eventually moving to her own home on the other side of the relatively small island to continue her writing, getting her poetry published in literary journals across Equestria.

To those who know her, Cinnamon Love is a pony who devotes herself to whatever she’s feeling. She’s passionate, in every emotional sense of the word. With her, there is no emotional middle ground. When she’s happy, she’s ecstatic, and when she’s sad she’s depressed. Unfortunately for those around her, this is something she’s only vaguely aware of, and so she often times has trouble understanding why other ponies aren’t as enthusiastic or committed to things as she is.

Due to her extreme emotional nature, Cinnamon is also a pony who, to some, may seem flighty or even fickle. She’ll often start projects that she later drops at a moment’s notice, for seemingly no reason at all. From her point of view this makes perfect sense. After all, if you’re not completely gung-ho about something, then you shouldn’t continue with it, and if you later become interested in it again then you should pick it up again then. This aspect of her personality was tempered a bit by boarding school, however, in that while she believes this way about herself and others, she realizes that when she makes a commitment to others she should follow through with it, even if she’s no longer entirely interested in said commitment.

This is an excellent application. The only change I would ask is to add spaces between paragraphs for easier readability. I am going to stamp the app and just ask that one minor tweet be done. :)

For Great Justice! :D
