He was once a young, well-educated, and helpful pup with a burning and unforgiving hatred for injustice of any kind due to living in a disreputable town with his honorable and caring, yet flawed and somewhat poor family. After being old enough to live on his own and leaving his honorable family and disreputable town behind, he stumbled into a mysterious seer named Calypso, who trained and planned with him for years in order to take down the Mane Six, Starlight, and Discord after showing him all of their misdeeds throughout the series. He then journeyed alone in his mission to put them in their place before realizing how wrong he was.
