Age: 21

Gender: Male

Species: Pegasus

Appearance: <p> He is blue in appearance, and has a brown mane. He doesn't have wings, instead has giant metal wings, a foot beyond the normal wing span of a pegasus. The metal wings are sharp and can cut through flesh as easily as air. If needed of course. </p>

Cutie Mark: <p> A depiction of wind made by a few curved stripes with dust following it, representing his fast speed and being able to quickly leave his opponents in the dust. </p>

Personality: <p> Iron Star is very humble, not reacting much to things that'd normally induce pride in other ponies. But he can get competitive at times when somepony is about to get above his rank. </p>

Backstory: <p> <b><font color="#000000">Iron Wind, his original name, he has worked towards being a Wonderbolt for a long while, trying a few times to sign up as one, failing at their tests. But he trained solo for the position as one of their members. He was getting desperate at one point for the position, but continued training not wanting to push himself too much. Eventually succeeding and becoming a member, Iron Wind a few days later found himself performing at the Equestria Games, during the training though, his wings, abnormally large wings in fact, which helped in propulsion, got clipped on a ring, injuring himself. He recovered quickly, getting on his hooves. His glory as a Wonderbolt grew, and the clipping of his wing wasn't the only thing that happened to him.</font></b> </p> <p> <b><font color="#000000">He got prideful, while performing a show above Ponyville. Enjoying the spotlight. He got distracted by the cheering crowd while sending off a salute to them, impacting a flag pole. He fell to the ground, surviving of course, otherwise he wouldn't have a character sheet here.</font></b> </p> <p> <b><font color="#000000">Iron Wind lost his wings, they hit the ground first getting so severely damaged he couldn't use them without hurting himself more. Getting them amputated and got large metal replacements. He earned the nickname "Iron Wing" using it ever since. But because of their design he didn't fly in fear of either clipping them, and hurting himself, or hitting someone else and hurting them.</font></b> </p> <p> <b><font color="#000000">Having trained and learned a lot,</font></b> <b><font color="#000000">he intentionally overshot his dream afterwards, and joined the Canterlot Army, figuring his wings and strength could prove more useful there. He didn't do much after except studying and learning how to strategize so he could possibly help or advise the generals, but quickly became <em>one of</em> the generals and having learned to not be prideful, he wasn't very affected by his quick promotion. But he was very surprised by it. He continued helping the Canterlot Army ever since.</font></b> </p>
