Flater is a hybrid. Part changeling, part pony, all orphan. He doesn't know who his father is, and his mother died birthing him. The town of Hoofendale is a small one, quite set in their old ways. Racist ponies and a disabled alien do not mix. But that was in the past and Flater has now moved to Ponyville to study different species. It's all water under the bridge now, right? Well it was until Pinkie Pie decided to uncover his rough history.
