Satyrs have a well-earned reputation for their good spirits, gregarious personalities, and love of revels. Quickhooves is no different, but she does strive to perfect herself physically and in execution of everything she does. The thrill of competition lights fire in her' blood, and the roar of the crowd drives her forward. Quickhooves’ main event is the Pentathlon (running, long jump, discus, javelin, and wrestling).

She maintains a comfortable lifestyle as an athlete. She has attracted admiration among spectators, fellow athletes, and trainers in the region that host her athletic victories. Tales of her exploits precede her, and might open doors or loosen tongues.

Satyrs are raucous fey that resemble humans with the furry lower bodies and cloven hooves of goats. They frolic in wild forests, driven by curiosity and hedonism in equal measure. Most satyrs are driven by simple desires, to see the world and to sample its every pleasure.

While their spontaneity and whimsy sometimes put them at odds with more stoic peoples, satyrs rarely let the moodiness of others hinder their own happiness. Life is a blessing from the gods, after all, and the proper response to such a gift, as far as most satyrs are concerned, is to accept it with relish.

Whether in one of the poleis, between them, or among the nonhuman peoples of Theros, physical contests and those who pursue them command respect bordering on reverence. Athletes arise from all walks of life and all cultures and quite often cross paths with one another.
