Age: 11

Gender: Female

Species: Earth Pony

Appearance: Brown coat and auburn mane and tail. She usually keeps her mane in a ponytail.

Cutie Mark: A windrose, symbolizing her passion for cartography.

Personality: Bubbly and curious to a fault, Schnuppe has no problems approaching or befriending other ponies, though she does tend to quickly lose interest in ponies she deems uninteresting, which applies to most fillies her age.

Backstory: Schnuppe's father Vigilance is a unicorn Royal Guard in Canterlot, her mother was an earth pony mare from Germaney (hence her name), who left when Schnuppe was five years old.<br />Vigilance has been raising her as a single dad ever since, though due to his his work schedule, they don't get to spend much time together outside his off days.<br />Because of that Schnuppe tended to spend a lot of her afternoons in the royal library, reading or helping out the staff.<br />It was there, when she was allowed to pencil in "Here be dragons" on a map of Equestria, that she gained her cutiemark.<br />After the return of Princess Luna, Vigilancce joined the newly reestablished Nightwatch and Schnuppe has been dividing her afternoons and evenings between the library and the watch office ever since, becoming somewhat of an mascot for Nightwatch.<br />
