MLP Challenge Day #18

Best/Worst traits of Rainbow Dash?

This one actually isn’t so hard. Her best trait is her loyalty of course. Always willing to be there for her friends and help them solve their problems, no matter what. And her loyalty to her friends isn’t the only application of her element, she’s also dedicated and hard working, one could say, loyal to her goals as well. When there’s a job that needs doing and there’s an obstacle in the way, RD is there to assist in removing that obstacle.

Worst: Rainbow Dash has a real problem with pride. She’s overconfident and sometimes way too self-centered. She displays this in the “Mysterious Mare-do-Well” episode where she let the town’s praise for her actions get to her head, and when attention was drawn away from her, she resorted to petty “heroic actions” like attempting to open a stubborn jar for confidence boosts. Needless to say, by the end of the episode she did learn a thing or two about this problem, but it is still a trait of her character to be a little self-centered and prideful.
