Prometheus is a pegasus pony and the captain of Princess Vesta's Flame Guard, as well as her lover and the father of Apolla/Sunset Shimmer. He is extremely loyal to Vesta and the kingdom of Wu Xing and follows the princess' orders without question. In return, Vesta places a great deal of faith and trust in him. Additionally, rumors circulate through Wu Xing regarding just how closely Prometheus works with Princess Vesta and the exact nature of their relationship.
Physical description
Prometheus is a light orange colored pegasus with burgundy colored hair and bright blue eyes. His mane consists of thick, wild locks that are swept back and his tail is tied with two light blue bands. He wears gold and red armor and wears a red band around his right upper leg.
Personality
In his youth, Prometheus was rash and very hot-headed. But, since becoming a royal guard, he has shed his youthful hot-headed attitude for a more calm, stern and serious personality. Prometheus maintains a professional attitude at all times, especially in the presence of Princess Vesta, to whom he is extremely loyal. He has a strong sense of duty and loyalty and will not hesitate to sacrifice himself to protect Wu Xing. Prometheus holds himself to very high standards and when he fails to perform his duty, such as when he failed to protect his and Vesta's daughter Apolla, he became riddled with guilt.
