Fears: SPIDERS!, Being Wrong, Being Judged by Others
Overall Persona:
Lightning Spark was born in the middle of a thunderstorm, leading to his name, which would later become fitting of his random sparks of genius. His father, Piston Rod, was an inventor who was accidentally teleported by one of his own inventions to an unknown destination when Spark was still a toddler. His mother Cosine, a mathematician and naturalist, was left to raise him alone. Cosine raised him in a bungalow outside of Ponyville on a steady diet of fantasy novels and calculus.
He possesses some simple magic, to help him use his tools and write, but he's no Twilight Sparkle. Seeking other notable pursuits, he decided to become a scientist, despite his mother's urgings. His first experiment left him with a burnt patch of hair on his right front leg and his cutie mark. Motivated, he studied science for several years before setting up shop as a mechanic. He's now an independent pony living in Whitetail Woods, where he can have some much-needed peace and quiet, while not being too far away from customers.
Most ponies avoid him because he seems like (and kinda is) a mad scientist. However, if you can get past his insane and idiot savant-esque demeanor, you'll find he's actually a pretty nice pony with a free spirit and a remarkably bad singing voice. When he not puttering around with gears or doodling on his blackboard, he enjoys writing and hiking.
However, he doesn't really like to interact with other ponies, and can be insensitive to their feelings. He just wants others to "make sense", but he doesn't realize that ponies don't work that way. If there's a line, odds are he'll cross it. If he actually tried to develop more of his ideas, he probably wouldn't have to work as a mechanic to support himself.
