Character Sheet for Sonic Steadfast
Nickname(s)
Sonic, aka Sonic Starlight
Character Description
Born as an earth pony, Sonic was given regal wings later in life from Princess Celestia. From the peak of his mane he has slight, jagged bangs that just graze left eye -- his mane behind is a four jumbled sections of hair in spikes. To match, his tail is split-ended, short, jagged. His mane and tail is just a slightly lighter blue than body; and his eyes an Emerald green. From birth, he had a regular colt build -- only slightly shorter than other colts, but upon recieving his wings at 14, he gained a growth spurt that made him have the same build as Celestia -- with the legs and regal wings to match. Unfortunately, he's still shorter than the princess. But taller than Luna. His cutie mark is a golden heart shining bright; exiting a Sonic Rainboom.
Personality
Sonic for a good while has been the type to live by the phrase 'Go with the flow' -- it's the lifestyle he's taken up after dealing with many emotional baggages after his transformation. With this lifestyle, he's hardly ever agrivated, but with his bubbly outlook on life to accompany it, he's always smiling. But nothing makes him happier than the night sky, running and flying super fast, and seeing other people smile. He's always there to stand up for what's right -- and can't turn away anypony in need of help.
Likes/Dislikes
Likes: His speed and skills, cheering other people up, The Princesses, his best friends, the night sky and it's stars, rain, snow and winter, doing what's right, living in the castle, and how time has aged him.
Dislikes: Waiting, people who don't listen, any sort of wrongs, the enemy that gained him his wings, people who wish for immortality, hail, and on the other side of the coin, what his long life has taken away from him.
Background/History
Sonic Steadfast was born shortly after the princesses took hold of Equestria and banished Discord -- his mother pregnant and due during the attack. Some say it was because of Discord's reign that he had his abilities -- being the fastest earth pony ever to live. Sonic lost his parents as a toddler -- he himself has never told the story.
But as a young pony, Sonic made two friends he'd keep for the rest of his days, who stood by his side and taught him many rights and wrongs. At the age of seven, he met someone he'd never forget... an enemy who he had to fight for seven long years -- even leading to the final battle in the Princesses castle. Despite the Princesses getting involved, Sonic had the final strike -- and at age 14, he was given his regal wings. And made the Guardian of Happiness. The first of the Guardians. (He was made the guardian of happiness after he cheered up Luna -- even if his advice turned to be the catalyst of Nightmare Moon later.)
Being so happy with his newfound status, Sonic prompty ran and flew -- causing the first ever Sonic Rainboom.
However, with these wings came the aging strengths of the Princesses -- leaving him to outlive even his youngest friend. After dealing with some emotional baggage -- hindering his preformance with the fight with Nightmare Moon -- Celestia was the reason he lives as he does today, for he taught him through her trauma, to just let the good times roll.
Sonic now still lives as a Guardian -- appearing to those who need help and secretly guiding them with a little magic he's able to use by just his will as such. He is equal to the palace guard, and guards the princesses in secret.
