August 2001: Skydancer
He can sing, he can dance (Sinatra style!), he's got a razor sharp wit. What's not to love?
OVERALL:
Hasbro-sponsored Appearances: He shows up in issue 4 of the comics, the special Escape from Catrina, and also is featured on a metric ton of merchandise. Skates, balloons, rubber stamps . . . you name it, Sky has his picture plastered across it. So THERE, Starshine! LM-sponsored Appearances: All but dominates my fanfics, hogging the limelight while my pony avatar, Moondancer gets maybe one speaking line. Maybe. If she's lucky. Highlights: He's a free-spirited pegasus stallion with a kicking color scheme and a devilish grin! He has Rainbow magic! And he's on a ton of merchandise! ;D Lowlights (or whatever): That attached foot means he's going to have a hard time getting into his tux. (Maybe that's why he sticks with the bow tie, eh? ^_~) Weirdness: Hasbro thought he was female. And they drew him as a unipeg in one comic. Um, okaaay.
Take a glance at next month's feature.

Officially, Skydancer
was female like everyone else in Ponyland except poor, lonely Baby Lucky . . . but
the toy is about as feminine as 
Skydancer was always a big part of my childhood MLP dramas, as he was my only stallion.
He used to get married to Parasol a lot, as I recall. But he only became my favorite pony
after his personality began to creep through my fanfics. He's a prankster, a wild
thing, a daredevil. If Mimic's tail gets knotted to a chair or Blade finds bushwoolies
packed in his closet, you know Skydancer's near. He really enjoys behind-the-scenes manipulation,
though . . . "Sadly, my best pranks are never discovered," he's been known to say. ;)
The ones that are discovered keep him on the lookout for Tex and the other Clydesdales . . .
ponies not known for their appreciation of the finer points of humor. *G*
Physical Demeanor: Yellow pegasus, Rainbow hair, magenta eyes, green seagull symbols
