Age: 25

Gender: Female

Species: Unicorn

Cutie Mark: Thought Bubble's Cutie Mark, a cloud with an ellipses within, represents her strong connection to her own mind and thoughts and ability to think. She can utilize her magic to hyperfocus her mind, allowing her to tune out her surroundings and think much more deeply than she could otherwise. She can also occasionally use her magic to read the surface emotions of other ponies, although she rarely utilizes this talent, and as a result is raw and unrefined. Her talent with levitation is only slightly above average.

Personality: Thought Bubble is shy and withdrawn most of the time, as she is quite introverted. As a result, she has few friends and tends to feel quite lonely and miserable. She also has many issues with her self-identity, often feeling as though she should have been born as an Earth Pony or a Pegasus instead of a Unicorn. She sometimes resents her horn and the magic she has, because it isn't flashy or useful to other ponies, and she's never been able to find work she could use it with. Still, when she does get to spend time with other ponies, she enjoys it. The rest of the time, she can usually be found with her nose in a book, or simply laying against a tree under a sunny sky, thinking her time away.

Backstory: Thought Bubble has spent almost her entire life alone in one way or another. Her introverted personality and her propensity for preferring her daydreams resulted in large amounts of clashing, bullying, and generally an awful foalhood. It didn't help that her confused identity issues, at the time merely bubbling under the surface, left her short-tempered and easily triggered into fits of rage. Though she managed to rein in her temper as she grew up, she found holding onto friends difficult at best. So she whittles away her time, thinking her thoughts about whatever strikes her fancy, while hoping to someday meet a pony(or ponies--she really isn't picky) that she can love.
