We all know that he was not at all a kind but, I think he has had a hard life. His family has a curse all the colts are born dead ( he had 17 colts all born dead), since all the mares all want to have foals every year mountain herd needs to expand territory, His youngest filly Shadepebble is a dud since one wing is shorter than the rest plus she is his last filly, and his oldest filly Petalcloud left to join and become lead mare of snow herd. We shouldn't be being that hard on him because he was trying to do what was best for his herd.😥

I relate his story to Anakin Skywalker's. He started out good, but once he realized that he had power, he used it for evil.
yeah probably
Still he did have a hard life losing all his colts and filly. But he's still pure evil.
I understand what you're saying bu that's no excuse for being cruel and pure evil.
But you have to admit he was a lil evil. Like, he wanted to make a pact with Star.
ALSO... (SPOILER) *claps when Nightwing hisses starfire at smirking Rocky Boi*
I personally think if his whole family treated him beater he would be a awesome Over - stallion but they didn't so now this is what happened plus being a over-stallion or lead-mare is a lot of stress with all of the responsibility.
Yup, Rockwing diffidently has not had it easy. I think Mrs. Alvarez did a great job with really making most of the 'evil' characters have reasons why they're that way. Though now I think about it, Rockwing was all the bad anyways. A bit extreme yes, but I'm pretty sure that most of the things he did were in what he believed, to be the best interest for his herd or family.
I agree with everyone else, that his foalhood and the way he was raised affected how he turned out. I feel like every villain starts out good when they are young, but the way they were raised and who was influencing them when they are young and vulnerable affects how they become when they mature. I think somewhere in one of the books it mentioned that he had a hard foalhood, and that would have most likely fueled how he is now.
you should write about that
I wonder what his name was before he became over-stallion...?
yes he was dark
I agree that we CAN'T know what Rockwing's life was like before we see him in the books. For all we know he could have been this splendid colt who was turned cruel, dark, and cold hearted by circumstances in his life. I'm not, by any means, defending Rockwing's actions, what he did was cruel, unthinkable, and downright DARK. Even IF circumstances in his life caused him to be the way he is in the series, he should have risen above it and been a better pegasus. That's just my thought on the situation! And yes, Landfall's Short Story is...well...it DOES show another side to his character. So does Starfire's honestly...yeahhhh. Hehe.
Maybe, but he was still almost pure evil. The short story in the back of Landfall reveals another side to his character though.
