Butterfly Fillies are one of the races that inhabit the Filly World.
Most of known Butterfly characters live in the gardenous land of Papillia.

Racial Traits[]

All Butterfly Fillies have large butterfly wings. While some Fairy Fillies also have insect-like wings, those of the Butterfly Fillies can be differentiated from those in several ways:

  • The bottom of the Butterfly Fillies' wings reach to below their waist and they tend to hold them upright so that this is clear
  • The Butterfly Fillies' wings are not a single colour (though sometimes use two tones of the same colour), with the exception of various additional editions, like Glitter 2023.
  • The Butterfly Fillies' wings have intricate patterns relating to which group they belong to (e.g. hearts for the Heart Group), excluding the times they're portrayed as Glitter 2023 edition's characters.

Basically, the Butterfly Fillies' wings look like pretty butterfly wings. In comparison, the Fairy Fillies' wings are usually green, smaller and without a set shape.

All Butterfly Fillies also have antennae on their head (most of the time, their colours match the Butterfly groups' colours), generally peeking out of the front section of their haircut and right behind their crowns. They are known to be used for communication, although virtually all speech is done through words that are spoken with their mouths. Princess Scarlet is also known to paint rainbows with her antennae.

MyFilly site story highlights[]

  • The Filly Butterflies are such a pretty sight! Their beautiful wings are shining with bright colors. Their golden crowns are very special, since on all of them there is a real crystal! They have cute antennas that they use to communicate with each other.
  • (...) Once every month, a big ship sails through the sky carrying Princess Scarlet, who is the monarch of Papillia. Her rainbow wings are the largest butterfly wings you have ever seen, and she is amazingly beautiful. Where the ship comes from is a big mystery, but everyone is happy when they see it approaching on the horizon.
  • In every cozy household of the Filly Butterflies there is a family pet, which helps the Filly Butterflies in their everyday life.
  • Today is a Filly Butterfly day! Will you come and join them?

'MyFilly' channel descriptions[]

  • <...> Princess Scarlet invites all of her friends to come to a big dance at the Filly Butterfly Ship. Every Butterfly family has prepared something special for the event, and every time it is a big surprise! But what is that out in the distance? It looks almost like a big tower made out of flowers! The Filly Butterflies can barely see it through the magical mist, which is always covering the tower, but they all plan to venture out on Scarlet´s ship one day to explore it!

Groups of Butterfly Filly characters[]

The characters are divided into several groups which are associated with symbols, the colors of gems inside the crowns and who are given certain pets.

Most of toy editions and merch releases keep the classic lore details intact, excluding Glitter 2023's standalone blind bag edition that doesn't feature entire Leaf and Mystery groups and as such, their residents and symbols are absent in that edition, with Sun group having to take green colour as their own.

Leaf group: a single green leaf.  Their pet is Maestro the grasshopper.

Welcome to friends.
<...> Even if the four friends are not related to each other, they are always there for each other. Together with the grasshopper Maestro they have become a real little family.
These Butterflys are real artists and often inspire the others with their talents...


Water group: three drops of water. The companion's name is Blue.

Water march!
This lively family never gets bored, because there is always something going on with them!
<...> gliding through the waves on boats, letting the manes blow in the wind or cooling off in the refreshing water: the water family goes out onto the lake almost every day.


Sunshine group: the little sun which appears to look different when compared to the symbol of Sunlight fillys from Filly Stars. Little friend of this group is the bee known as Honey.

Hello Sunshine
These butterflies don't know what bad weather is. They always shine like the sun does!
<...> it can't be warm enough for these Fillies, because they love summer and its hot days!


Heart group: pink heart. Helper of these fillys is the caterpillar Pinky.

Fillys with a lot of heart
This family enchants all of Papillia with their kind and loving nature!
These Fillys master everyday life with a lot of love and understanding.
Whether it's Saz playing loud music, Freya looking for treasures, Rhett working late or Valentina pottering around in the shop: these Butterflys are always there for each other!


Flower group: a red rose. The little pal is named as Cici.

Flowery greetings
Roses, lilac and lavender - these Fillys always smell wonderful!
<...> these fillys really blossom with the first rays of sunshine in spring. Because then they can finally play outside in nature and their garden!


Mystery group: purple butterfly. The pet of these fillys is called Mystery.

Sparkling family ties
Mysterious: with their glittering wings, these Fillies are real eye-catchers!
For a long time they lived well hidden in the Flower Tower, which was shrouded in thick, glittering clouds of mist. Since these have thinned out in the magical autumn sun, the other butterflies can finally come to visit.


Princess Scarlet is the only one filly of the Special group, her symbol is a rainbow colored gem in the shape of a diamond. Harmony is a companion of Scarlet.

Up until 2021, Scarlet was the only Filly butterfly to wear rainbow wings as one of the signs of being special, but a few issues of Blue Ocean magazine introduced four other fillys with the same trait to the brand.
They are called Rainbow Butterfly and first four of them are presented as new characters in spirit, while their designs are almost entirely copied from Valentina, Saz, Summer and Eurissa (and while Egmont's magazine continues Rainbow Butterfly edition in 2022's issues, the creators are keeping names and personalities of old characters, not inventing new biographies). Although, despite their wings and close bond with Sarlet, they still may be not related to the Special group.

Rainbow Butterfly backstory[]

So the loving ruler prepares a great party every time. Eventually, her friends Marian, Nika, Erika and Jana come along this magical path, to visit.
