Ok let's talk about this topic again. Like Florapower said WHO IS DAPHNE
I don't think she is Bloom's mother, thats very stupid right? If Daphne is her mother, where is Bloom's dad? If Daphne is Bloom sister and just want to show off her looks, what is this related to the movie? *Sigh*
Dear winxclub-joy,
Daphne is Bloom's sister, shortly after birth, her planet was attacked by a coven of witches (the Trix's ancestors) who sought to retrieve the Dragon's Flame from Domino. During this battle, the lively culture and population was decimated. In a final sacrificial act to ensure that the Dragon's Flame did not fall into the wrong hands, Bloom's older sister, Daphne, sent her into a portal that led to another planet, Earth.
On Earth, Bloom was found in a burning building by a firefighter named Mike, who rescued and eventually adopted her. Her adoptive mother was a florist named Vanessa. Bloom led an ordinary life, but she held a strong belief in fairies, even though she was unaware of her true origin (In 4Kids, she once had a belief in fairies, but grew out of it, as most people do). In her youth, she received a gift, her close pet rabbit Kiko, and met her rival, the snobbish and arrogant Mitzi.
At the beginning of season one, Bloom was 16 years old. Bloom's outfits are primarily blue, although in the official Winx Club website, her favorite color is red. Another inconsistency with color was made in season 2, where she tells the then fake Professor Avalon that her favorite color was purple. She loves reading books about spells and playing with her pet rabbit, Kiko. Her favorite subject is Potionology and her favorite spell is the Dragon's Flame. Her profile on the official site also states that her favortie food is pizza (her mother states this in the cartoon as well), that she likes romanitic comedies, and she likes pop music. She's also terrible at being tidy and can be a bit unorganized at times.In Indian version,Bloom was voiced by Amruta Sapre in season 4.
Life in Alfea: The First Year
At Alfea, a school for fairies, Bloom and Stella shared the same dormitory, meeting Flora, Musa and Tecna, their fellow roommates. They became friends and soon, on a trip to Magix, they were attacked by a trio of witches, otherwise known as the Trix, as Bloom had been spying on them.
After constant attacks, the Winx Club gained the attention of Ms. Faragonda, the headmistress of Alfea. After an attack on Musa in Magix, the girls learned that the reason for the constant fighting was that the Trix were seeking to get the power of the Dragon's Flame, and after a fight in which Bloom unleashed an enormous amount of energy, they were soon convinced that Bloom had it. Unfamiliar with the term Dragon Fire, she sought the guidance of her headmistress and was told the history of Domino. Bloom herself would not know that she had this power until the Trix later succeeded in taking it, leading to a series of journeys for Bloom to regain what she had lost.With that power the Trix brought up the Army of Decay. They set Red Fountain on fire and it became ruins. It is rebuilt in season 2 though.
Life in Alfea: The Second Year
A new fairy, Layla, the princess of Andros, joins the Winx Club with her pixie Piff. After waking up from a comatose state, she reveals that the rest of the Pixies she'd tried to rescue are trapped in Shadowhaunt, the UnderRealm fortress of Lord Darkar. With limited Winx power, Layla, Bloom, and Stella must go on a special mission to rescue the other five Pixies with Sky and Brandon. During the rescue mission, Bloom bonds with Lockette, the Pixie of Portals. Afterwards, the group returns to Alfea, where the other Winx girls also bond with Pixies.
Meanwhile, a new teacher named Professor Avalon has arrived at Alfea, and he takes a special interest in Bloom. Tecna and her bonded Pixie, Digit, believed that the new teacher was the "Angel of Doom", but this was revealed to be false.
Near the end of Season 2, the Professeor Avalon at Alfea was revealed to be a fake, as the real Avalon had escaped from Shadowhaunt and informed Ms. Faragonda that he needed to stop a spy of Darkar's. Meanwhile, Bloom is with the fake Avalon, who reveals his true form, which turns out to be a horrible winged creature. The impostor traps Bloom in a negative-energy bubble that drains her powers, and brings her back to Shadowhaunt, where Darkar transforms her into Dark Bloom, because he needed her Dragon Fire combined with his own Shadow Fire to unite the Codex and claim the Ultimate Power of Realix. However, Sky is able to save Bloom by telling her that he loves her. (In the original version, it is revealed that Bloom possessed healing powers, which she used to revive Sky and also break the Evil spell Darkar had used to turn her into Dark Bloom).
Life in Alfea: The Third Year
Bloom learns of a new enemy named Valtor (Baltor in 4Kids version), who had been imprisoned in the Omega Dimension until the Trix freed him. Bloom learned that he was an evil wizard conjured by the Ancient Witches from the Dragon's Flame, and had ties to the past of Sparks, Bloom's home realm, as he had declared himself Bloom's sworn enemy and revealed that he was the one who destroyed her home planet.
After Tecna had vanished into the Omega Portal, apparently never to be seen or heard from again (but finding her in a later episode while she and Sky are searching the Omega Dimension for their comrades) and Bloom suffered a defeat in an attempt to destroy Valtor and avenge the loss of her friend, she decided that she needed to become stronger and earn her Enchantix powers. Ms. Faragonda sent Bloom to Pyros, where she'd met the sorceress Maya. Maya taught Bloom how to focus all her energy on one target. Later on, the Trix attacked Pyros, and Bloom fought the three Witches to a virtual standstill, but, because she refused to surrender and believed that she could defeat Valtor while becoming one with the essence of Pyros, she gained her Enchantix and was victorious in the end.
Near the end of the season, Valtor invaded Alfea to claim their strongest magic spells, and the girls had recently acquired the Water Stars from the Golden Kingdom. When Bloom was about to destroy him using the power of the Water Stars, he prevented her from doing so by telling her that Oritel and Marion were trapped within his own body. This was later revealed to be a hoax after Bloom visited the Crypt of the Ancient Witches. With the truth revealed, and two episodes later (the finale of season 3), Bloom ventured into another dimension, where she faced off against Valtor who had become a beast and extinguished the essence of his Dragon's Flame with her Fairy Dust (in the 4Kids dub, she used her Dragon Fury attack), thus sealing him away with the three Ancient Witches inside their crypt. (However, it has been rumored that he may come back in the second movie).
The Secret of the Lost Kingdom (first movie)
With Valtor defeated and the Magical Dimension safe for the time being, Bloom and her friends began their search for Bloom's parents, King Oritel and Queen Marion of Domino. The girls sought out Hagan, the blacksmith who had forged the Sword of King Oritel, but after a small skirmish, he stated that he was unable to help Bloom in any way.
Back on Earth, Bloom was visited by the spirit of her sister Daphne, who gave Bloom her mask so she could see Domino as it was before Valtor and the three Ancient Witches destroyed it. Traveling to the Obsidian Dimension, Bloom found out after confronting an evil sorceress named Mandragora that Oritel's wife, Marion, was absorbed inside the sword that Hagan had fashioned to be, literally, "fit for a king" before Domino met its apparent end (the entire planet was covered with ice and snow). However, only a pure-hearted king without a crown could release the sword and restore the entire realm back to normal. To Bloom's surprise, Sky—who had revealed himself as the new King of Eraklyon, because his father had abdicated the throne—was able to release the Sword of Oritel and save the kingdom, which in turn also restored Marion to her human form. At the end, Sky asks Bloom for her hand in marriage and she accepted almost instantly. However, by destroying the Obsidian Dimension, the Winx girls—who have been called the new "Company of Light"—didn't know that they freed the 3 Ancient Witches, who are seen at the end of the movie possessing their descendants, Icy, Darcy, and Stormy. It is possible that this will play a part in either Season 5 or the second movie.
Life in Alfea: The Fourth Year
At the start of the season, Ms. Faragonda invites Bloom and the other Winx girls back to Alfea to teach new students, because they have all achieved full Enchantix status. Although nervous, Bloom is also ecstatic to be back at Alfea, but stunned at her newfound fame after the events of the "Secret Of The Lost Kingdom" film.
After finding out that they no longer had their dorm rooms, but a separate quarters, Ms. Faragonda informs the girls of a new form after Enchantix, called "Believix". Bloom and her friends then go and teach their first class (which Tecna dubs "Winxology"). After Flora is injured during a demonstration of their powers for their new students, the girls must deal with new foes, the Wizards of the Black Circle, who were looking for the last fairy on Earth and targeted Bloom, not knowing that she was originally from Sparks. Knowing that the last fairy on earth had to be found, they leave for Pixie Village, where they discover that the fairy they seek is in Bloom's hometown of Gardenia.
The girls use the Tree of Life to leave for Earth and rescue the last fairy, whom they learn is Roxy, and gain their Believix when she finally believes in them. The Fairy Hunters, also known as the Wizards of the Black Circle, still relentlessly attack Bloom and the other girls, who they know are protecting Roxy. Bloom takes on a mentor-like role with Roxy, as she feels that they have a lot in common because they were both didn't know about the world of fairies and magic after growing up, thinking that they were normal humans.
While on Earth, Bloom, with Mike's and Vanessa's help, together with Winx opens pet-shop named "Love&Pet" where they give to Gardenian people nice small magic pets (which Flora creates from toys), also selling accessories for them.
Bloom also was the leader of the Winx Rock Band, having shown not ordinary talent in singing.
Winx Club 3D: Magic Adventure (second movie)
Alfea celebrates the inauguration of the new school year when the party is interrupted by Icy, Darcy and Stormy, the perfidious Trix. The Winx, without Bloom, are forced to remedy the confusion created by the witches who, having ruined the party, steal a powerful and mysterious object. Meanwhile, Bloom is on Domino, experiencing the best moments of her new life as a princess. She finally found her parents, and Sky asks her to marry him. But not all that glitters is gold; the Three Ancestral Witches, in fact, come back to haunt Stella, Layla, Tecna, Musa, Flora and Bloom. Moreover, Erendor, Sky’s father, forbids his son to marry the princess of Domino. A dark secret lies in the realm of Eraklyon. Meanwhile, with the help of Trix, the Ancestresses are able to find the Tree of Life that holds the positive and negative balance of magic. With a powerful spell, they break this balance and suck all the good energy from Magix. Bloom and her friends find themselves powerless and forced to again confront the witches, the symbol of all evil. Will our heroes find a way to restore balance in the Magical Dimension? And what is the secret that separates Sky and Bloom? Will their love survive this new test? Between hilarious gags and moments of real magic, the Winx return to fly. Erendor - Sky's father is a man tormented by guilt. He abandoned Oritel after promising him that he would protect the kingdom of Domino (Sparks). This betrayal took care that the Ancestral Witches could destroy the planet of Erendor's best friend, Oritel. Now Erendor lives in remorse. When Sky decides to marry Bloom, Elendor forbids Sky to keep on seeing Bloom and tells him the sad story. Sky's father hopes this will relieve him of his guilt. Elendor promises to protect Bloom and regain Oritel's friendship, respect and the love of everyone.
Appearance
Civilian
Bloom is a redhead, has cyan eyes, and a medium skin tone. Her daily outfit consists of a blue and yellow midriff shirt, spangled blue jeans with stars on the ends and yellow wedge sandals. From season 2 onwards, she wears a blue and white striped shirt with little pink hearts, a denim miniskirt with over-the-knee blue socks and lace up blue high-heeled boots. She is seen wearing this outfit quite frequently. She sometimes wears a T-shirt with a single heart on it.
Winx
Her Winx outfit is a sparkly blue top decorated with a gold jewel at her chest, a matching miniskirt and blue ankle boots. She also wears blue gloves around her arms from elbow to wrist and wears a small golden tiara with rounded points at the top of her head. Her wings are cyan with teal tips, and her Charmix is a silver and gold heart pin with a fluffy pink bag at her waist, also heart-shaped.
Winx Transformation Sequence
Bloom's Winx transformation sequence is probably, along with Tecna's, the longest out of the Winx girls(0:12) and is also detailed. Firstly, Bloom spins around a ball of flame, and the flame's light fills the screen. Bloom claps her hands above her head, & crosses her hands. Her gloves burn up her arms into place, followed by her top as she strikes a pose with her arms spread apart. Her wings stretch out as she poses sideways, and her tiara flashes onto her head. She flies upwards, and then claps her hands in such a way that the movement of her hands makes a makeshift heart of flame, then she lands and strikes her final pose.
Charmix Transformation Sequence
In her Charmix transformation she twirls around before a silver heart appears around her jewel on her top. Then she does a double twirl around and the pink heart appears at the side of her skirt. She was the first to get her Charmix , but she would not use it until after she had returned to Alfea (she was fifth to transform, only ahead of Flora, who had not earned hers by that time). Bloom earned her Charmix in the Resort Realm when she saved her and her friends using teamwork from a falling cable car.
Enchantix
Bloom's Enchantix is a layered, frilly-like outfit, while primarily cyan in color, also consists of various, rainbow-organized colors of light green, soft pink, light yellow and purple, with pink, translucent above-the-elbow gloves (both). She also has a pink bow in front of her neck, matching eye liner, & lipstick. In the cartoon however, the dress seems to be just turquoise, cyan and light blue. Her wings, now ample in size, are both light yellow and pink, with a soft alice blue outlining and speckled with dark blue decorative jewels. Her wings do not resemble butterflies' but are insectoid and are distinguished by discal forewing spurs which spiral inwards. Her hair (the only one of the Winx girls, besides Tecna, it seems, to not have it styled in pigtails) has also grown several inches in length and has seemed to earn a much more tame, elegant look and style, it becomes strait but she has curls at the bottom, and is longer than her regular winx form. Her entire enchantix look is very beautiful, and glamorous. She has yellow orange highlights that are located at the top of her head, on her bangs and at the ends of her hair. She has also discarded her cyan colored boots and dons blue strappy, barefoot sandals that are decorated with three hearts, and wears two sets of blue, heart shaped barettes on either side of her head (ironically instead of a tiara as the other Winx girls do, excluding Tecna, and as she traditionally does while within her regular Winx form) in addition to earrings of the same color and shape. She is the last Winx member to obtain her Enchantix.
Enchantix Transformation Sequence
Bloom's Enchantix transformation is a little short(0:30) but it is detailed. It begins with the Great Dragon approaching her while she is spinning toward him as a silhouette, with her arms wrapped around her legs. The dragon flies near her a couple of times. As Bloom's closed eyelids sparkle and pink eyeshadow appears on them. While golden light is all around her, she moves her hands slightly while the Dragon approches her once more and circles her from head to toe. her hands move slightly, willing her gloves to materialize in a burst of sparkles. Her sandals magically appear on her feet. While a powder-blue fabric unravels out of a unbloomed flower shape, it beams on to her and becomes her main outfit and her wings blossom from her back as she spins once. Then, she glides into a bright background and strikes her final pose
Bloom earned her Enchantix in a different way than the rest of the Winx Club, by focusing all the will power, & energy in her body to defeat Valtor in one perfect moment when the witches said his name. Since this was a very rare and unusual way of earning her Enchantix, Ms. Faragonda, the Headmistress of Alfea School, warned Bloom that her Enchantix is not very developed/complete and may not work as well for her as the rest of the Winx girls. Her fairy dust vial is blue with a heart-shaped top and handle surrounding it and unlike most winx girls it is on a chain rather than a choker. But, when she was able to save her entire planet in the "Secret of the Lost Kingdom" movie, it is assumed that Bloom's Enchantix was finally complete, as she had graduated from Alfea at the end with the other Winx girls. This was further supported with evidence in episode 2 of season 4, she was able minaturise herself along with the other winx girls, an act that she was unable to perform during season 3 and the during one of movie scenes of "Secret of the Lost Kingdom" before saving her kingdom, when her enchantix was in an incomplete state, that is assuming that her enchantix is now officially complete after saving her home planet.
Believix
From top to bottom: Bloom's hair has reached knee-length, and she has a two braids on the back of her head that holds a small amount of her hair tied to a golden heart barrette while light pink eyeshadow is on her eyelids. She wears a midriff-bearing top with pink puffy shoulders, with a cyan blue vest, and translucent sleeves. Her new wings are larger than her Enchantix wings, and lined in blue with a pale blue interior, pink heart shapes, and small dark blue heart gems decorating the wings themselves. Her gloves are fingerless and light blue in color. Her skirt is poofy and cheerleader-like, colored blue with a dark blue heart on each hip that holds a pair of purple ribbons in place, a matching purple band around the above the layered ruffles that are blue on top and pink on the bottom. Lastly, sandals are replaced with a pair of high heeled boots, that are darker blue on the top and on the heel, and a light blue on the actual heel part of the shoe. She also has pink socks that come up to just below the knee and on top has a hot pink rim that goes around them.
Believix Transformation Sequence
Bloom's Believix transformation is the longest of the other girl's transformations (0:35) and it is also detailed. It starts with her hair blowing in an unseen wind as she raises her left hand and then her right, a flash of light forming her gloves. She then spins around, her already tied hair in back, then the screen flashes and we see a close-up of her smiling at us before she becomes a silhouette and spins around again, a dragon-shaped ring of fire circling her waist and becoming her skirt. She then spins around again, revealing herself to be fully clothed, and, on the third spin, her wings materialize in a flash of light and she flies back into her pose as the Dragon Fire coils around her.
Bloom's Zoomix, Speedix and Tracix sequence starts out with her in a pose with her arms stretched forward. The three sets of wings then appear closing in to the screen until they are out of frame one after the other. Bloom then reappears with the three sets of wings spinning around her. Bloom then touches the wings she needs, and then shouts either "Winx Zoomix!","Winx Speedix!", or "Winx Tracix!" depending on which one she chooses.
Note: One can identify which wings are being formed by looking at the background. The Speedix wings' background is purple and blue. The Zoomix wings' background is blue with diagonal white stripes. The Tracix wings background has multicolored sparkles.
There are two other transformations: Sophiex and Lovix. Sophiex is a jungle-based transformation and Lovix is a winter-based transformation.
Other
When Bloom turned evil due to Lord Darkar's diabolical influence on her (Dark Bloom) - her eyes change color to yellow, with cat-eye pupils, while her lipstick and eyeshadow become purple. Her still-sparkling Winx outfit is somewhat blue-black instead of the usual cyan. While the tiara becomes pointed, both the tiara and brooch turn purple. Bloom's hair also becomes thicker and a darker shade of red while her wings become dentate and cyan with gray tips. While in this form, she steals the Codex fragment from Alfea for Darkar. She only made one other appearance in the finale of Season 2, when Darkar knew he needed the powers of light and darkness to claim the Ultimate Power of Realix. Thanks to her friends — and mainly Sky declaring his love for her — Bloom is able to heal herself, and reverse the spell. She returns to normal, returns the Ultimate Power, and joins her friends in a Charmix Convergence that Banishes Darkar back to Shadowhaunt
Relationships
Bloom is very close to Stella as she was the one that introduced Bloom to Alfea. Bloom shares a room with Flora. At first, the bond between Bloom and Flora is weak but after some time, they became good friends. Bloom does not have much of a problem getting along with the other girls. She is kind and will give a helping hand to her friends when needed. However, it is considered that Stella and Bloom are best friends in season 1. But in season 2 and the movie, Bloom and her roommate Flora have been best friends. Stella moved to being Layla's best friend in season 2; however, in the next two seasons, they have not been as close. Stella returns as Bloom's closest friend in the start of season 3 and 4. Stella was the first fairy Bloom has ever met and, in addition, their boyfriends were born on the same planet and they are also best friends. In season 4, Bloom meets Roxy and has a very close relationship with her as the two have very similar backgrounds. Bloom was thrust into the world of fairies and discovered her true identity as princess of Domino (Sparks) and had trouble dealing with everything. Roxy who was also thrust into the world of magic like Bloom, had no idea of her fairy abilities until she met Bloom and the Winx Club. She also has a boyfriend, Sky, the Prince of Eraklyon, a realm in the show. In the fourth season Sky becomes King of Eraklyon, and becomes Bloom's fiancé at the end of Secret of the Lost Kingdom.
Magical abilities
Bloom is the most powerful fairy for all times. The main Bloom's power is the Dragon's Flame - the greatest power in the Magical Dimension.
She hails from the planet Domino (Sparks, or Sparx, in the 4Kids version), which was destroyed many years ago, with only her sister Daphne, who survived in spiritual form, and she left as survivors. After the attack, Domino (Sparks) turned into a dark, freezing place.
Bloom's most common attack is the "Fire Ball". Throughout the series she also uses the Dragon Fury (Dragon Fire Fury in the 4Kids edit), Heat Flare, Dragon Holocaust, Dragon Twister, Flame Shield, Flame Burst, Fire Armor, Dragon Inferno, Dragon Rage, Flame Strike, Flaming Circle Assault and the Fire Wall. When Blooms earns her Enchantix she also uses the Enchantix Sphere and the Enchantix Flame Burst. In season 4 when she gains her Believix her new attacks are "Flame Arrow" and "Heart of the Dragon". Most of her attacks could be said to be offensive attacks.
Bloom's attacks are based entirely around the element of fire, and usually consist of fiery blasts and explosions, even creating an inferno during Stella's ruined Princess Ball in Season 3. When she is angry, her power is intensified causing her entire body to glow like a fire and explode outwards in a powerful blast. She can conjure shields and barriers of fire and walls of flame, most of her magical shields are either star or heart-shaped (more of the latter in her Enchantix and Believix forms). Bloom can see the intentions of non-magical beings and their true nature and can read their minds and emotions. Bloom also has the ability to heal people as the Dragon's Flame is also the Flame of Life. This was first shown in the 10th episode of season 2 when she revived Sky who died after an attack from Icy in Red Fountain. Later, she used this power to cure the pixies from the spell from Lord Darkar. She would learn about why she had healing powers just before a convergence exam, and at the end of season 2, when she used it to heal herself and her friends, bringing Riven back to life (he sacrificed himself so Musa could live).
Bloom also knows some basic spells that all fairies can use, such as telekinesis, shapeshifting, transmuting objects from one to another, and fixing minor messes. Bloom in 4 season can use the power of zoomix, speedix and tracix for believix fairys only.

Notes and references
1.^ In the 4Kids dub, Bloom's birthday is changed from December 10 to January 27. A minor inconsistency in the second episode of the 4Kids version's third season has Bloom stating that her birthday "is not 'til December", coinciding with the Rainbow version.
2.In the 4Kids dub, Bloom's home planet is renamed "Sparks" or "Sparx".
3.In the 4Kids dub, Dragon's Flame was renamed to "Dragon Fire"
4.In the book Secret Powers, her full name is given as "Bloom Peters". It is not clear however if this is canon, but it most likely only exists in the 4Kids version, since Secret Powers was based on it.
