Red Talon

By Commander Bubbles

Age: Depends on RP, but usually 19

Gender: Male

Species: Pegasus

Appearance: Red and yellow coat, red mane and tail. He also had red talon markings across his body, too (hence the name "Red Talon")

Cutie Mark: Two checkered flags surrounded by red talons.<br />Symbolizes his love for speed (not the drug) and his competitiveness.

Personality: Due to the fact that he's spent his last few years in Ponyville mostly alone (his close friends moved away for college), he's a lonely fellow, and socially awkward, although slowly getting out of his shell. Usually a nice stallion, but can get very angry and crass if angered to that point.

Backstory: (depends on roleplay)<br />An up-and-coming racer, Red Talon has raced at many famous races across Equestria while only in his teens. He won the Canterlot 300 at the age of 16, finished 3rd overall in the Equestrian Championship Air Races, and nearly clinched the Neightona 500 at the age of 18, only to succumb to a late race accident which caused him to finish 18th (although he won it later that next year, beating out Trevor Hayne for youngest Neightona 500 winner)<br /><br />He and his parents are very distant and aloof, due to the fact that they failed to shape him into a businesspony, much to Red Talon's dismay. His lonliness is explained best by his close high school friends moving away for college, as well as the absence of most of his family in Ponyville.<br /><br />He hates cold weather and pop music, but loves to go fast.
