Fireflare was born in Manehatten, and was your general toruble-making foal. Her mother, in an attempt to keep her out of trouble, convinced her to take up martial arts; it was at this time that she earned her cutie mark, symbolizing her love for precise maneuvers. She began competing in a number of martial arts contests and won quite a few cash prizes and first lplace trophies. Eventually, though, she felt that she had been caught in a rut, and took all her money off towards Canterlot.
On the way, she saw two unicorns being attacked by a sphinx, and fought off the dangerous creature. The unicorns informed her that there was in fact a job centered around fighting monsters; a Demi-power Aggressor Intervention Agent degree would let her fight constantly. Fireflare thanked them and used all her money to get into the Canterlot university. There, she befriended Flapper Jack, another student in the DAIA program, and the two of them became bar buddies.
After many long semesters of training and classes, funded by multiple jobs and Fireflare's lack of an apartment, she eventually graduated and was given her license by CELESTIA HERSELF (in a ceremonial fashion). It is not known what happened during the after party, or whether the sun goddess really did get drunk; Fireflare won't talk about it, but mentioning Cantaloupes and Celestia in the same sentence makes her giggle.
Since then, she's been traveling, fighting monsters, and making a few acquaintances all across Equestria. She has a number of humorous and not so funny stories under her belt, and a rough and tumble attitude towards life. She is also an avid shipper.
