Age: 22

Gender: Female

Species: Pegasus

Cutie Mark: <p> A blue feather with a shining yellow sun behind it. She has a talent for athletics, mainly flying but other activities as well. Like a feather falling from the sky, she can pick up her speed quick, but this speed is also rather unstable due to her inability to train her endurance and she often finds herself having to slow down just as quickly as she accelerates. </p>

Personality: <p> Brash and quick to annoy on the surface, she tends to make ponies shy away from her at first, but she quickly relaxes once she begin to know somepony better. Her habits can make her seem much more rude than she means to be, teasing her friends often. She is rather impatient and doesn't like to wait for things to get done, which shows through in the style of flight she has taken to. </p> <p> She prefers to try and fly as quickly as possible to get to where she needs to go and do what she needs to do before growing annoyed. This works against her, however, as her search for flying speed caused her to never train her endurance and she tires very quickly, usually too winded and in need of a small sit down by the time she gets to where she was going. </p> <p> Not dumb, but not the brightest, she usually looks towards her sister for advice on most things, usually making an idiot of herself if she isn't around to stop her. </p>

Backstory: <p> Growing up in the city of Tall Tale with her sister, the pair were thrust into many athletic activities by their parents at a young age. Though disliking it at first, that quickly became accustomed to their new active lifestyles. Sky Rider particularly loved the feeling of the wind rushing through her mane as she sped through the sky at top speeds, planting the seed of her speedy lifestyle. </p> <p> Once old enough to take part in them, she joined flying competitions with her sister and found mixed results for herself. Sometimes doing well and other times making a fool of herself as she ran out of control and collided with an object or another contestant. Though, despite any setbacks that may have taken place, she never gave up and continued to improve herself. Her troubles with endurance and control never seemed to wane, however. </p> <p> Through their travels for various competitions, the twins took a liking to the big city feel of Manehattan and found a comfortable place to live when not on their travels. Though, seeing them home is a rarity due to their many trips out for both competitions or Sky's own inability to comfortably sit still and stay inside during the day. As such, the pair can often be found in various cities around Equestria just as often as in their home city. </p>
