Age: 7

Species: Unicorn

Cutie Mark: Still a blank flank

Personality: Springsteps is a laid back, free-spirited filly who prefers to enjoy the simplistic life as it comes rather than obsessing too much over small details. She believes that spending too much time planning on how to live your life is too boring, and eventually you will waste much of your time planning instead of doing what you should be doing: having fun!<br /><br />A bit air-headed and optimistic, Springsteps tends to expect the best from other ponies. She wants to believe that deep inside, there is always a good side in everypony. She is also not the pony who would grieve over a failure, she would rather rise up and try once more.<br /><br />Oblivious and carefree, but she can also at times overreacts on some things. Very easily distracted with shiny things. It is not impossible for her to fail to notice that roaring manticore in the room when there is shiny marble under the sofa.<br /><br />

Backstory: A filly from a family of a travelling caravan of merchants and street performers. Her father, an earth pony, is one of the caravan's cooks while her unicorn mother is a famed fortune teller. They tagged along whenever the caravan goes, often spending great amount of time on moving trains between one city and another, never settling down on a city longer than a month or two. The nomadic lifestyle is hardly a perfect life, but Springsteps is okay with it.<br /><br />During her short stays in towns all over Equestria, Springsteps has managed to befriend a couple dozens of foals from various social standings. <br /><br />So far there is nothing remarkable on her merry life. She is the only filly in the caravan without any cutie mark, but she hardly pay any mind to it.
