Fluttershy is a Pegasus pony who befriends Twilight. She's normally very shy and quiet and usually keeps to tending her animals. She is the wielder of the element of Kindness.
Personality
Fluttershy seems to have a great love for all animals except full-grown dragons. She is more open around animals than she is around other ponies. This ability to handle animals seems to be unique to Fluttershy who unlike other pegasus ponies is not involved with the weather manipulation of Ponyville.
In Dragonshy, she is revealed to have been extremely terrified of full grown dragons and was almost unable to function out of fear. When she saw her friends being harmed by the dragon, though, she was able to overcome her fear and talk down to the dragon. This shows that underneath the soft voice and the usually kind nature there does exist a strong will.
In Suited For Success, she is revealed to have "freaky" knowledge of sewing. She's good enough to create a dress from Rarity's design (with the help of or possibly directing her other friends). She can also recognize machine stitching, stitching styles, uneven pleats, and traditional clothing styles.
History
When Fluttershy initially met Twilight, she was too scared do more than mumble quietly but opened up when she met Spike. She was in charge of music during the Summer Sun celebration.
In the second episode, she took part in the search for the Elements of Harmony. When the group encountered an attacking manticore, Fluttershy was able to tame it by kindly talking to it and removing a thorn from its paw that was causing it to rampage, earning her the element of Kindness.
In the third episode, Fluttershy's pet bunny Angel is introduced. Angel seems to boss Fluttershy around on occasion. Some argue that Angel acts like he does to get the usually reserved Fluttershy to come out of her shell as the other ponies try to do the same for her.
During the episode of Griffon the Brush Off, it is revealed that Fluttershy is a year older than Pinkie Pie which surprisingly means that Fluttershy may be the oldest of the ponies.
During the episode of Dragonshy, Fluttershy has a fear on fully grown dragons but she put aside her fears to stand up and protect her friends from one.
In Suited for Success, she has good knowledge in sewing like Rarity does.
