Soarin

Snowflake "Soarin" Bolt is a former lieutenant of the Wonderbolts, currently retired as an apple farmer.

Biography
Soarin has suffered in life more than almost anypony else. Born a mare named Snowflake, he spend his whole young life trying to prove to everypony else that he wasn't meant to be female. Many brushed him off for this, telling him that if he liked mares he could like mares, but nothing could change the fact he was one. But his father, Jet Trail, and his mother, Fleetfoot , along with his marefriend Spitfire supported him the entire way.

His chance arose when he was, by all means, killed in a freak tornado he had attempted to stop. Celestia heard the prayers of all the ponies he had saved and arrived to bring him back from the brink of death- this time, in the body of a stallion. For his bravery he was promoted to the Wonderbolts and thought his life couldn't get any better.

When he and Spitfire ended their relationship in favor of something more platonic, though, he started to have second thoughts. It seemed bad luck was following him wherever he went. His father was crippled in a crash and forced to retire as captain, and one of his brothers walked out on the family. He thought he found solace in his new marefriend, Rainbow Dash, but was sadly proved wrong when it was discovered that she- the mare he wanted to marry- was actually his long-lost cousin. He quit the Wonderbolts in one last act of love for Dash, so she could become a Wonderbolt in his stead.

Some time in the next year, he discovered Sweet Apple Acres, the source of an incredible pie he'd eaten a few years back. He developed feelings for the baker of said pies, Applejack (who, in an ironic twist of fate, was Rainbow Dash's ex). After a few nights spent together, they accidentally conceived a foal. Having both lived lives of heartache, they decided they wouldn't find anypony better than each other and decided to get married. Their relationship is more based on a strong friendship and common interest than sexual attraction, but for the most part that's what has kept them so close.

They have a son, Apple Bourbon, and are considering having another foal.
