Mate: N/A
Foal(s): N/A
-Personality Stuff-
Likes: Helping other ponies, flying, reading a good book (on occasion), travelling, and being out of the limelight (which he doesn't often get the opportunity to do).
Dislikes: Being bullied, standing by, being forced to wait before taking action, being stuck in situations with no easy answer, being praised and idolized.
Motivation: To rescue ponies in danger!
Strengths: He's a hero, always ready to assist anypony in need. He is a genuinely good pony; kind, generous, and loyal.
Weaknesses/Flaws: He acts arrogant and over-confident, which alone would be bad enough, but is in fact also deeply insecure. As well, he is impatient and likes to see things in black and white.
Fears: Being laughed at or otherwise disdained by ponies. He also has a mild phobia of spiders and other creepy-crawlies.
Overall Persona: Last Hope gains his rather strange name from his parents; the youngest foal of eight spoiled brats, it was hoped he wouldn't turn out like the others. He came from a well-off family; his mother was a minor member of the Canterlot aristocracy, and his father worked his way from nothing to become the owner of one of Cloudsdale's largest weather factories.
Growing up, he was picked on and teased by his siblings. It didn't help that he was technically the favorite foal, although his parents rarely had time for any of their offspring. His only friend was orphaned cousin Steel Hammer, a kind, pragmatic soul who lived in the family mansion.
Smart, handsome, and athletic, he was the golden boy to everyone who met him. However, this only increased the bullying as well as the pressure he felt to succeed. He tried to hide this by acting proud and confident to others.
He was aimless in life until almost leaving colthood, not being particularly talented at anything. However, a house in the neighborhood caught fire, with two very young foals trapped inside. Impulsively, he dashed into the burning building and rescued them, only narrowly escaping before it collapsed. That was the day he got his cutie mark.
Ever since, Last Hope has been a pony of action; he immediately moves to help somepony in danger, no matter the risks. The public views him as a hero, which only makes him act more arrogant and brash.
However, this masks deep-seated insecurities about himself. He hates being made fun of, but he doesn't really want fame, either. He secretly wishes that everyone would just leave him alone.
The only time Last Hope really feels good about himself is when he's risking his life to save somepony. But this also means that he's quick to take action, even when doing so isn't the best idea. He is a terrible diplomat, and can lose control when he's angry.
At the base of it, Last Hope is a good pony, he just has some . . . issues.

Creator's note: This is my first OC. I sincerely hope I haven't made him too Gary Stu-ish or "out there". The intention is not to be flawless or emo, but to be a subversion of the "perfect hero".
