Cocoabean

[Gracie Sky]

Name: Cocoabean
Race: Earth Pony
Gender: Female
Age: 18
Cutie Mark: A gust of wind

Hometown: Cocoabean was born and raised in Los Pegasus, where she currently still lives. She resides in Earth Pony Square, under the care of her father.

History: Cocoabean's father is a successful business entrepreneur, while her mother was a pony working under her father. When the two fell in love, she was promoted to his vice executive, although she has no real responsibilities. They had three children, whom the father named after the companies he owned. Cocoabean is the middle child, named after her father's Cocoa Bean factory.

Traits: Despite her white collar heredity, Cocoabean loves being physically active, namely running. This preference seems to be occasionally uncontrollable, as though she has difficulty voluntarily standing still. However, she is a very talented runner, one of the most skilled in Los Pegasus. She oftenly finds excuses to run more, such as her contributions to out of town running events like the annual Running of the Leaves in Ponyville, which she wins most of the time. However, her attention span on academic subjects is severely lacking. Subjects that don't catch her interest or she could dismiss as irrelevant facts she tends to forget quickly. When required to do things like sit and study, she more likely than not will spend the time daydreaming (most likely about running).

Cutie Mark: Many predicted that Cocoabean's cutie mark would have something to do with running, seeing how talented and passionate she was about it. However, even after winning races and running marathons, she did not discover what her life's calling was. Her cutie mark was actually discovered some time after her older sister became upset with their father. It was no secret that the two were always at ends and had their disagreements about almost everything. One day, she disappeared along with Cocoabean's younger sister. It turns out she ran away and took the youngest, who was barely over a year old at the time, with her. Scared for the stability of her family, Cocoabean ran after her blindly, not knowing where to even look. She ran for days to every place she could think of until she miraculously chanced upon her. After pleading with her, she convinced her to return to her family, at which point her cutie mark appeared, symbolizing her run to reunite her family. The youngest sister's whereabouts is currently being kept secret by the oldest sister.

Personality: Most ponies that know Cocoabean will attest that her mouth is much like her legs, always on the run. She has a hyper, sometimes invasive personality and won't hesitate expressing her generally uninformed opinion excessively. These behavioral patterns are probably due to her love of things sugar. You name it, if it has sugar and is sweet, she'll love it and graciously devour the item in question, sometimes without permission. Despite the occasional trouble her spontaneous habits cause, she only means the best and is always ready to apologize and help fix her mistakes. She is an easy pony to get along with once you get used to her animated way of talking, seeing how she cannot stand still even while having a conversation. In the event she ever becomes angry or upset, she seems to temporarily become very intelligent while she preaches to the source of her anger about behavioral correction.
