In his debut, Prince Blueblood appears to be regal and gentlemanly. However, he is quickly revealed to be quite narcissistic and uppity when he shows little respect for Rarity (and lower-class ponies in general), insults Applejack in front of her, and expects others to treat him like royalty. He is also selfish and self-centered, using Rarity to shield himself from an incoming flying cake. However, he demonstrates some hidden depths in My Little Pony: Friends Forever Issue #26 during a diplomatic mission in Yakyakistan with Shining Armor, using his silver tongue to win over the yaks.
