He doesn't seem to ever calm down, and some tend to say he's rather childish. He does show self-control when the situation calls for it. He doesn't seem to mind that he can go a bit out of control, and associates this with the comparison he often gets from others; a lightning bolt. Thunder was born in Canterlot, while his parents came from Cloudsdale. They moved on a whim, and seemed to like the bustling city of Canterlot. He himself also enjoys it. His parents (known as Ma and Pops by him) are key parts to his life. Pops works as a Weather Pony, who takes care of snow clouds. Ma stayed hom to watch over him as he grew, and has now grown into a healthy, dependable young stallion. Thunder now currently lives alone in a one-pony aparentment, and also works as a Weather Pony. Ma and Pops are actually fairly calm, normal indivuals. They were never really sure where Thunder's energy came from, but they say it made raising him that much more fun. In terms of relationships, Thunder and his parents have a healthy bond between child and parents. Thunder enjoys their visits, and enjoys their company. He managed to become a Weather Pony thanks to Pops. He put in a good word for Thunder, and he first vollenteered his son to help out. After seeing that he was natural, Thunder was hired shortly after, and has been working this way since. Thunder had always loved the booming sound of, well, thunder. The heavy pelting of rain against a window would lull him to sleep on certain nights, and it perplexed his parents. Truth be told, Thunder was never scared of loud noises like lightning crackling, or the like. He would sit in awe of the cool, split-second image that a lighting bolt would leave, and thought the boom of thunder was really neat. One day, in the park, he was playing with his friends. They all were havign a great time, until a large stormcloud formed, and scared away his friends with it's loud sounds, and threatening rain. Quickly a young Thunderflash zipped up and pushed the cloud away, being that he was a Pegasus. His friends cheered for him, since he had saved the day from a rainy day inside! His cutie mark faded in, and he was overjoyed. Thunder absolutely loves to race, and can never say no to a challenge. He wants to join the Wonderbolts someday, but his modesty leaves him to believe that he'll never quite be good enough, though he certainly does try. When hyper, or nervous, Thunder tends to stamp a hoof repeadetly. He taps at random intervals, much how like lightning striking tends to be very random as well.
