He is Rainbow Dash’s firstborn child from her first relationship with Lightning Dust.
He is a very confident, proud pegasus. He loves showing off his speed, especially creating tornados and helping with funneling rainwater up to Cloudsdale.
He grew up never properly knowing his other mother, Rainbow Dash. Lightning Dust refused to speak about her, much less answer any questions about her.
Flashbang stepped up and confronted Lightning Dust about it, demanding answers now that he was finally older.
He has decided to get to know Dash and her side of the family (with AJ and their son, Rocket Sprint). He wants to be the brother he failed to be before, thanks to Lightning Dust’s stubbornness.
