Description fiiinally got around to redesigning ember and misty, geeez their old designs were so bland: They aren't twins anymore and I gave them an age boost. They're all adults now~ Onward!

Aerostorm ("redesign" lol, the only design change is more fluff)
I hope ya'll are already plenty familiar with this guy. Rainbow Dash's oldest crotch spawn with her hubby Dumbbell, and her only son. Aerostorm was supposed to be her legacy, the biggest, baddest flier to ever hit the Equestrian sky, but of course Stormy turned out to be a fluffy, sweet, lazy flowerchild with hardly a competitive bone in his body....Unless that damned Zipperflash is around talking shit. Dash is wondering if this odd rivalry can be exploited to make a supreme flier out of her son yet...

Stormy ain't the brightest bulb, but makes up for it with kindness, creativity, and nearly endless patience. His hobbies include making flower necklaces, playing the ukulele and singing, surfing, cloud-watching, napping, eating (a lot), hanging out with friends and family, and occasionally, flying inside tornadoes for fun.

Phoenix Forge (previously Ember)
After the fluffy, adorable disaster that was her first beloved bab, Rainbow still hoped for a more extreme daredevil of an offspring on her second attempt. Phoenix is certainly closer in personality to her parents than her big brother-she's strong, tough, confident, and views wrestling as a legitimate form of expressing affection (Stormy is a favorite target for painful, loving noogies). But alas, Phoenix gave Wonderbolt Academy an honest shot for her mom's sake, flunked out, then happily pursued her real passion, mechanical engineering. Phoenix is a blacksmith by trade (currently employed by the Canterlot Royal Guard), and feels perfectly at home in a blazing forge, crafting enchanted swords, armor, cannons, and the like.

Where Stormy is a momma's boy, Phoenix is a daddy's girl, and adores spending time with her father. Phoenix is just a few years younger than Stormy and very much looks up to her big brother, though she can only seem to express that through shoulder punches and headlocks. She's fiercely protective of her younger sister, and snarky and dismissive of her mother's insistence that Phoenix could make the Wonderbolts if she just cared a teeny bit. Dash supposes that making weapons is a pretty metal career path too... Β 

Like her brother, Phoenix isn't the brightest bulb on non-engineering related topics, and she has a tendency of accidentally setting her mane/clothing/feathers on fire. She has lots of cool scars from her line of work, and enjoys recounting the gory tales to young foals. She's very unladylike, with bad habits like spitting and scratching at herself like a dog. Phoenix is best friends with Jam Sandwich.

CloudBurst (previously Misty)
The youngest daughter, Rainbow's third bab, a gentle, intelligent, well-mannered young lady. Cloud is a hipster, postmodern artist who likes to make weeping watercolor works out of rain, or paints using bits of liquid rainbow taken from the Cloudsdale weather factory. Her works fetch a handsome price on the art market nowadays, and she's enjoying some success in Canterlot as a model, sometimes seen in bizarre, eccentric outfits she fashions herself out of found objects. Cloudy isn't at all a good flier (she was born with dwarfism, her wings are very small and she can't fly for very long at all without overexerting herself), but Dash has resigned herself to her hippie-dippy kids at this point and very much loves her youngest daughter, taking great strides to defend her from bullying in Cloudy's youth. Dash might not understand all this "artsy-farty stuff", but you can bet she's there to cheer her daughter on (mortifyingly loud) at all her art shows and proudly displays Cloudy's trophies and awards (maybe she can't fly but she's still a winner)

Cloudy cares very much for her siblings, and despite being the youngest, she often provides an ear to listen to their problems, and a shoulder to cry on if they need it. She's a huuuge romantic and develops crushes quite easily, then has over-dramatic artistic blue periods when her crushes turn out to be taken/married/a huge jerk.

there we go, pretty happy with the new directions, hope ya'll are too

This redesign is awesome, I love how it gives Phoenix and Cloudburst more originality as characters. I will always pull for the two of them to be twins, and I wish the were a little more significantly younger than Aerostorm but all in all great work.

Misty and Ember had generic designs, but I did like the idea of feisty twins. Β The idea that they had Rainbow's desire to stand out, yet for their entire lives would need to be standing next to someone that diluted their individuality. Β 

I have younger twin sisters, and there came a point where they despised being referred to as "the girls", like a single entity. Β So I've never been impressed with stories that take twin characters and join them at the hip, and writing them like the same person with two heads to speak out of. Β

Why does the blacksmith have scars that relate to fighting and not to burning?
Also, are their mom's genes defective? Aerostorm has heterochromia and CloudBurst could be called a dwarf.

That defectives genes comment is kinda harsh. These are things that just happen.

StarDustJolteon In reply to FeuerKnight [2017-07-13 03:24:39 +0000 UTC]

yeah i was thinking that about the scars too i guess it could come from mishandling the weapons but she could use some more like burn scars

FeuerKnight In reply to StarDustJolteon [2017-07-14 02:56:21 +0000 UTC]

Many more, also when you handle metal, even mishandling the weapons often ends up in messy scars, because either you mishandled them while hot, or you used a tool wrong, OR the cut got badly infected (very usual). Also, it comes to my attention how the Phoenix's design is the only one with scarsΒ  that come from her job, I mean the soldier one, Cupcake, should have scars all over her legs, and gruesome ones too since she "broke bones while training", she should even have a limp or be in constant pain, anyone who has hit a wall knows that the skin tends to break while doing that and that the bones are left with quite the pain. Aerostorm should also have a visible consequence of him "falling off in a demonstration" as the writer mentioned in one other post.

It seems that this is a case of scars being used as a "cool" accessory instead of a real consequence of something.

I couldn't be just coincidence, it's way too many failings in the offspring as for it to be due mere coincidence

I don't know, there's been some wild coincidences in history. Even so, if it is failings, it's hard to tell who's side it's on

SpaceAce16 [2017-07-07 16:38:38 +0000 UTC]

I adore these new designs!

And now I've got a headcanon that Phoenix Forge is transgender, and she chose the name- or at least for 'Forge' to be a part of her name after she came out/realised this, as it felt kind of weird that her parents' would make 'Forge' a part of her name and then be surprised when she becomes a blacksmith.

Anyway, the more important bit is that I love them all! I've always loved Stormy, and Phoenix and Cloudy are both so beautifully designed and unique!

While I love Phoenix, I'm not a fan of Cloudburst. I couldn't tell you how many times I've seen the same pastel rainbow color scheme for RD kids, it's kinda overdone. And, to be honest, Cloudburst is far more bland than Misty ever was. You don't see many dark coats for ponies in the show.

Oh my goodness these three are so cute!!! I will miss Ember and Misty, but I know you scrapped and redesigned them for the greater good of the story, and am excited to see what roles these cuties will play in the Pandoraverse storyline. I do, however, have a TON of questions like, how old are they? Who are they friends with? Did Phoenix make Cupcake's guard armor? Does Cloudy know Magnolia (I imagine they'd either get along greatly or be huge rivals)? Β Anyways, great work as usual Lop, can't wait to see where you go next with these guys!

I'm loving the new direction! Ember and Misty were fine, but they really didn't seem to have much personality to them besides 'rowdy twins'. These ladies are dripping with personality! I love them both, but I'm really looking forward to seeing more of CloudBurst, she seems like she'd have a very 'cool cat' personality on the outside along with being rather successful, but has that great romantic softy side that gets her all over dramatic about 'lost loves', but like you said, artistic blue periods, which is different from other people feeling blue. I don't know, I just love the thought of seeing more of her and what you have in store for her.
