Cotton is a dwarf from Tontatta Kingdom who first appeared in the Riku Royal Army Headquarters beneath the Flower Field.

Appearance
Cotton is a normal-sized dwarf with light-colored skin, a pointed nose, large eyes, and a large, light-colored tail. She has light-colored hair that covers her left eye. She wears a light-colored hat that covers most of her head, light-colored gloves, a dark-colored jacket with light-colored buttons on it, striped legging-like pants, and dark-colored boots.

Personality
Cotton is fairly emotional, being easily moved by the story of the past conflict between the dwarves and the Donquixote Family.

Dressrosa Arc
Cotton was first seen at the Riku Royal Army headquarters hidden beneath the flower fields. She and many other dwarves welcomed Thunder Soldier when he brought Franky to the headquarters. Cotton and Inhel also gave a report to the toy soldier concerning the information gathered by the scouting brigade. After Inhel spoke about the "legendary heroes" and said their supposed names, Cotton was shocked when Franky and Zoro confirmed that they are among the people Inhel mentioned.

Once Usopp, Robin, and the dwarves from Green Bit arrived at the headquarters, Cotton listened to Thunder Soldier's speech about overthrowing Doflamingo.

She and the other dwarves present listened as Gancho described their past history with the Donquixote Family to Robin, Usopp, and Franky, weeping at the thought of their ancestors' misfortune. When Gancho mentioned King Riku, Cotton reacted with great joy. After Gancho's speech about stopping Doflamingo from repeating his ancestor's atrocities, Cotton cheered vigorously, ready for battle.

After Thunder Soldier explained about Riku Dold III's dethronement and Dressrosa's tragedy in detail, the dwarves' plans, which Thunder Soldier dubbed "Dressrosa Operation SOP", were then revealed. They planned to infiltrate the underground world through a tunnel they created and defeat a Donquixote Pirates' officer known as Sugar, the Devil Fruit user who turns humans into toys.

When it was time to commence the decisive operation, the dwarf rebels, Thunder Soldier, Usopp, and Robin entered the tunnel and later arrived at the underground trade port. The dwarf rebels then split into two groups. One group went with Thunder Soldier to go to the royal palace to assassinate Doflamingo while the other group, which includes Cotton, remained with Usopp and Robin. Cotton's group made their way to the officer tower where Sugar was located.

Once they infiltrated the officer tower, they arrived at the room Sugar resided in. Leo revealed his strategy to defeat Sugar. He planned to sneak a Tatababasco spice into her basket of grapes, hoping that she would eat it. Cotton cheered for Leo as he prepared to put his plan into motion.

She was then shocked to see Sugar's bodyguard, Trébol, shot a fly with great accuracy. Therefore, Robin stopped Leo, knowing how risky it was with him in the room. After Robin lured Trébol out of the tower, Cotton and her group charged in. They attempted to attack Sugar, but she transformed some of them into toys and ordered them to fight their former comrades.

They were interrupted when Trébol threw a ship at the officer tower, demolishing it. Trébol then captured the dwarves with his sticky substance. After learning who they were allying with, he ignited the sticky substance, causing it to explode.

With the dwarves incapacitated and Robin transformed into a toy, all hope lied with Usopp to complete the operation. When the dwarves started calling out Usopp, Trébol mocked them, saying that they were deceived by a coward. However, they refused to stop believing in Usopp. Trébol then started stomping on the dwarves out of spite. Usopp finally mustered his courage and revealed himself. The dwarves were saddened when Usopp admitted his lies but then started cheering for Usopp when he found his resolve and attacked Trébol.

When Sugar forced the Tatababasco into Usopp's mouth after he was subdued by Trébol, the dwarves were shocked to see that it actually led to Sugar's downfall as Usopp made a horrible expression that terrified Sugar to the point of losing consciousness. With the primary objective of Operation SOP completed, the dwarves wept over Usopp's success.

The dwarves then carried Usopp away from an enraged Trébol while Robin held him back. They were then surprised when Hajrudin picked up Usopp. When the former slaves declared their allegiance to their savior, Usopp ordered his newfound followers to destroy the SMILE factory and the dwarves shout out Usopp's name.

Doflamingo later trapped Dressrosa in his "Birdcage" and forced everyone imprisoned into a survival game. During the chaos, Cotton's group was reunited with Wicca and Kyros' dwarf group when Kin'emon arrived at the underground trade port. Doflamingo also placed a price on the heads of twelve people. The dwarves were surprised when Doflamingo not only included Usopp in his hit list but also placed the highest price on his head. With Usopp's new followers turning into enemies, the dwarves, Usopp, Robin, Rebecca, Sabo, Koala, Hack, and Bartolomeo fled to the surface.

After running through the colosseum stands, they reached the top of the old King's Plateau. The dwarves were then reunited with Riku Dold III and Viola. While Leo and Kabu volunteered to go with Rebecca to find Luffy, the rest of the dwarves decided to go to the SMILE factory to assist Franky.

After arriving at the factory, Cotton's group used the pink bees to display a message to the enslaved dwarves, informing them of Doflamingo's treachery, which subsequently led them to revolt. After the dwarves inside the factory unlocked the front door, Franky and Cotton's group entered and faced off against the factory's boss, Kyuin. When Franky hugged her in a strange manner, Cotton interpreted as an act of love. The dwarves were then shocked when Franky kissed Kyuin to stop her from rampaging.
