Iron Weight


"Heh, I've got more speed in one feather than that loser has in his whole body."


Parents: Dumbbell and Cloudchaser


Species: Pegasus/Male


Special Talents: His strength and speed


Nicknames: Iron. That's it, and it better stay that way.


Significant Other: (to be continued…?)


Voice Actor: Chris Pratt


Bio:
Iron Weight, usually known amongst his friends simply as Iron, is the burly, brawny, and not-so-brainy son of Dumbbell and Cloudchaser. This fella resides in Cloudsdale with his parents and partner in crime, Thunderclap. He works diligently at the Weather Factory, and his strength proves invaluable to the thunderstorm unit. Of course, however, Iron doesn't want to work in this cruddy factory with his parents forever! Like many pegasus colts and fillies, Iron Weight dreams of being a Wonderbolt. Everything he eats, studies, and talks about has to do with the amazing aerial team. Iron has been working hard since he was a colt — and would have a larger following of fans if this fella wasn't an honest-to-Celestia, fantastically classic bully. Much to Dumbbell's chagrin, his son has fallen into his hoofsteps in an almost scarily similar fashion. This fella uses his intimidating size to get his way or make a point. His big, booming voice is quite helpful too. Iron has quite the temper behind him (thanks to both parents) and if it appears a pony is gaining the upper hoof in a verbal argument, Iron gets scarier and scarier.


However, like all ponies, Iron isn't 100% evil. In fact, he really likes flowers, and will frequent Cloudesdale's retired florist Petunia Petals' private garden. But Iron is a very angry colt. After all, that goody-two-hooves and snobby brother, Jetstream and Prism Storm, practically got Wonderbolt status handed to them on a silver platter. They didn't need to work out every day, they didn't have panic attacks over studying for the big test and just couldn't remember anything. Then, that idiot Jetstream just throws it away and Prism knows he's the best. Obviously, its up to Iron to knock them down a few pegs so they don't make anypony else feel like absolute crud about themselves…




Thunderclap


"Plug your ears, dude, this is gonna get loud!"


Parents: Thunderlane and Flitter


Species: Pegasus/Male


Special Talents: Weatherworking, creating thunderstorms, strength


Nicknames: Thunder


Significant Other: (to be continued…)


Voice Actor: Jonah Hill


Bio:
Thunderclap is the aptly-named son of famous Wonderbolt Thunderlane and Flitter. He dominates Cloudesdale's skies with his lifelong friend, Iron Weight. Much like Iron, Thunderclap is very much brawn and not so much brain. He loves throwing his weight around and is very aware of his own strength. He works at the Weather Factory alongside Iron in the thunderstorm unit, where he really gets to strut his stuff. Thunderclap can create a large, thunder-like sound with his powerful wings, which are quite helpful when coaxing those clouds into their proper place. While he's a solid member of the thunderstorm unit, Thunderclap feels his talents would lie far better all the way up (down?) in Canterlot. Thunderclap dreams of joining the Royal Guard, Pegasus division.


Despite dear ole dad's (a premiere Wonderbolt that works with the famous Rainbow Dash herself) encouragement of his son's obvious abilities, Thunderclap in no way wants to follow in his hoofsteps (though he doesn't quite have all the pieces to the puzzle). Wonderbolts are all about speed and endurance. But what about the muscle? Royal Guards have it awesome — they get to tell ponies what to do, and chase (and beat up!) bad guys. While Iron is his best friend, though, Thunder usually takes a backseat to his shows of intimidation. He chips in with a "yeah," or "duh, stupid," when needed, but usually he stands as "the muscle." Sometimes even he thinks Iron crosses the line, but there's just something that keeps him from saying anything. Maybe its 'cause he wishes his dad would be a bit more supportive of his career choice and wants just that — support. If Iron is gonna be the pony to do it, so be it. Not that he'd ever tell him that, though…
