History

In Campfire Tales, Flash Magnus is the protagonist of a campfire story told by Rainbow Dash, and is Rainbow's favorite legend. In the story, Flash is a cadet in the Cloudsdale Royal Legion during a time before the founding of the Wonderbolts. While flying over the Dragonlands one day, Flash's squadron is intercepted and attacked by dragons, and several of Flash's comrades are captured during their retreat. Flash attempts to convince his commanding officer Ironhead to rescue them, but Ironhead refuses, saying that a direct attack on the dragons' lair is impossible. Flash, thinking he can outmaneuver the dragons in the air, volunteers to be a decoy to draw the dragons away from their lair so the rest of the squad can save their captured comrades. Ironhead recognizes Flash's bravery and entrusts him with the fireproof shield, Netitus, to aid him in his mission. While Flash distracts the dragons and protects himself from their fire breath, Ironhead and the others rescue the trapped Legionnaires and create a massive storm cloud. Flash leads the dragons into the cloud, causing them to be struck by lightning and sent flying away. With the entire squad safe, Flash is praised for his courage, and Ironhead allows him to keep Netitus. In the season seven finale, Shadow Play, Flash Magnus is revealed to be one of the six "Pillars of Old Equestria" along with Rockhoof, Mistmane, Somnambula, Mage Meadowbrook, and Star Swirl the Bearded, who represent the Element of Courage. Long ago, he and the other Pillars were gathered together by the unicorn Stygian to fight a great evil. When Stygian later became the Pony of Shadows, Flash and the others sacrificed themselves to imprison him in limbo.
