Bloom
 
 
 
Princess Bloom is the show's main protagonist and the informal leader of the Winx, as well as the princess of Domino and the guardian fairy and keeper of the Dragon Flame. She was the first character to be introduced.
 
 
Personality and Traits
 
 
Bloom started off as an insecure girl in the beginning of the story because of her ignorance of her true origins and her strange, yet surprisingly potent powers. Later on, as she learned more about magic and herself, she grew increasingly curious about her past and whom her biological parents were. An escapist by nature, she has a tendency to run away when things get too hard or confusing for her, and could also be impatient and stubborn, with a short temper. Bloom was also impulsive at times, which led to some very bad experiences for both her and her friends. Her greatest strength and greatest weakness was her status as the guardian of the Dragon Flame. While the Dragon Flame made her arguably the most powerful fairy in the Winx Club universe, it also consistently drew numerous enemies to her such as the Trix.
 
Despite being far from perfect and having flaws, Bloom still has a heart of gold. She cares for all of her friends and families (both adopted and biological) deeply, and is always willing to help and fight for a good cause. She has also shown herself to be selfless, caring, and a true capable leader.
 
 
 
 
History
Bloom is the second daughter of King Oritel and Queen Marion of Domino, and younger sister of Daphne, as well as the keeper of the Dragon Flame, which her elder sister, Daphne, passed away to upon her birth. When she was still a little baby, her Kingdom was attacked by the Ancestral Witches, Valtor, and Mandragora who ended Domino by turning it into a frozen ad abandoned planet. Daphne, unable to fight off the witches, sent her sister to Earth to protect her as well as the Dragon Flame , and ended up being killed by the Ancestresses, after which Oritel and Marion believed that both their daughters were dead. On Earth, Bloom appeared in a building that her adoptive father Mike, a firefighter, was dousing. Mike rescued Bloom and eventually adopted her. Bloom's adoptive mother was Vanessa, a florist. Bloom grew up to have an uneventful childhood and had no awareness of her true origins. In her youth, she received a gift, her close pet rabbit Kiko and met her enemies, the snobbish and arrogant Mitzi. She also dated Andy, who plays the guitar in his band. In her late teens, Bloom encountered Stella fighting at a local park with Knut, an ogre. Just as Stella was about to be defeated, Bloom, surprisingly, used a magical attack and turned the fight in Stella's favor, and both of them were able to defeat Knut. Stella, impressed with Bloom's powers and abilities, encouraged her to attend Alfea, the three-year prestigious school for fairies which Stella had studied at, but had been expelled. Curious about developing her dormant magical powers and abilities and eager to find out where they came from, Bloom agrees, after convincing her parents Mike and Vanessa.
 
 

Bloom is having a good time enjoying her new life as the princess of Domino. However, she doesn't seem to be too fond of her responsibilities as a princess
and feels somehow "trapped". Her father gives Bloom a horse named Peg, and her mother gives Bloom a riding suit so she can ride Peg. Bloom and Peg goes out for a ride and meets up with Sky. Sky asks Bloom to marry him and Bloom is overjoyed and tells her parents. A news reporter hears the news and broadcasts it. The Winx Club hear the news and wonder why Bloom didn't tell them first. Sky tells Bloom two days later that they can not marry each other which saddens Bloom and angers her father. The Winx Club came in time to cheer up Bloom and help her choose her prince (which her father chose).

in the past. Bloom's father figures out that Sky was wearing the disguise and bans him from coming to the castle. Bloom is very upset, and goes to Gardenia with the Winx Club to her foster parents. Her foster parents welcome them in. Bloom and the Winx Club then lose their powers because the Trix destroyed the positive energy. Bloom later, with the help of her five best friends, decide to face the Trix, and regains her powers. The Winx then face off the Trix together and then defeat them by summoning the immeasurably incomparable energy and power of the Great Dragon itself.

 
The Dragon Flame, also known as the Dragon Fire, is a supremely powerful and divine magical power that is considered to be the almighty lifeblood essence of the entire Magic Dimension itself (said to have been the very life force that had created it) and is the immeasurably limitless power of the almighty Great Dragon itself.

Bloom discovers that she is the guardian of the Dragon Flame in Season 1, somewhat like a physical host/vessel for it. It is the supreme and strongest magical power in the Winx Club universe, and cannot be fully extinguished except by the Water Stars, which, incidentally, only a possessor of the Dragon Fire can use; although if used against them it will casue them great agony and pain.
There are two fragments of the all-powerful Dragon Flame which were shown in the series: a much purer fire that Bloom possesses, and a darker fire that belongs to Valtor, which was the result of a spark from the Great Dragon's fire breath, which fell in the darkness (possibly part of the Shadow Fire, since both the Great Dragon and the Shadow Phoenix are supposed to have been born together from the endless void at the beginning of time and it is probable that Baltor's Dragon Flame was the result of the mixing of these magical abilities and energies). The power of Lord Darkar (The Shadow Phoenix) is the polar opposite to the Dragon Flame since, while the Dragon releases energy through the Magic Dimension, the Phoenix's magical energy and power absorbs that very life energy.
Nearly the whole show, except the fourth season (which focused on Roxy and restoring magic on Earth), and the two computer-animated 3D movies-"The Secret of the Lost Kingdom," and "Winx Club: Magical Adventure-" were entirely focused on the Dragon Flame either directly or indirectly.
