Age: 16

Spoiler: show

Cutie Mark: A shooting star

Personality: Trick is a very respectful pony who always puts others before himself. He is also very outgoing and loves to crack a joke every so often. However, hidden behind this exterior is a rather insecure and lost colt who wants nothing more than to truly coincide with others, and develop his talents.

Biography: Trick spent the early years of his life in Manehattan, along with his parents. He was surrounded by talent; his parents were big local musicians, and every other pony that he knew had something going for them. Trick felt as though he didn't belong , because he didn't have any talent to share with others. As such, he began working hard to find a possible talent. However this was an arduous process. No matter what he tried, he simply couldn't do it. Just when Trick was about to give up, the thought occurred to him: his parents were musicians, so maybe he could be one as well. The young colt tested his musicality using his parents' instruments, but found that he wasn't good at that either. Yet this time was different. This time, Trick felt the need to pursue this path, and work hard to improve and make everyone proud. At that moment of realization, he obtained his cutie mark; a shooting star, representing his longing to rise up and become a "star" in the eyes of others.
As time passed by, his parents began getting busier with their careers. It eventually got to the point where Trick would spend the whole day alone. He used this time to trot around and explore more of Equestria, and himself in the process. Each day, Trick would explore deeper into the unknown until one day, he made it to Ponyville. There, he met a filly named Tidy Lace, and admired her work in running a clothing line. The two quickly became close friends.
Trick convinced his parents that it would be for the best that he moved in with Tidy and her family. The colt took one of his father's extra guitars, and moved in with his new friend.  He gets along with the members of the household, although Trick does slightly aggravate them when he practices.
Trick and Tidy now spend their days supporting each other on their quests for success.

Spoiler: Tidy Lace • show

Name: Tidy Lace

Species: Unicorn

Gender:  Filly

Age: 16

Appearance:

Spoiler: show

 

Cutie Mark: A roll of thread and a needle

Personality: She's generally not an easy filly to talk to anymore, if you're not well acquainted. This is because she draws some inspiration in her personality from the unicorns of Canterlot. She prefers keeping to herself, and doesn't find childish things interesting. However, around people Tidy does like, she can be a very sweet and fun pony to be around.

Biography:   Tidy grew up in Ponyville, an only foal. Her parents, having lived most of their lives in Canterlot, were accustomed to their rather boring, civilized and studious life. Yet Tidy got along with them well enough. While still in school, she was pretty embarrassed because she had yet to earn her cutie mark. Everyone else in her class had one. Nevertheless, Tidy didn't have much trouble interacting with other ponies. She was an easy filly to get along with, after all. However these ponies were more acquaintances than anything. While on the way home from school one day, Tidy decided to take a detour and escape her repetitive and boring lifestyle of waking up, going to school, back home, and then sleeping. On this detour, she came across the Carousel Boutique. Tidy had always been aware of Rarity's shop's existence, but had never really looked closely. When she did, however, she found the attire to be absolutely stunning. This experience sparked a sudden interest in designing her own apparel.
Tidy felt tempted to ask Rarity to teach her, but shied away from it. She just lacked the confidence to walk up to the mare she drew her inspiration from. And with Tidy's parents knowing nothing about designing or making clothes, she decided to venture to Canterlot and practice there. She went with her mom and took residence with her grandparents during the stay. Tidy found that she didn't really belong there, though. She was used to having her high class parents around, but being surrounded by so many indifferent ponies was different. Tidy knew that this was the way she, as a unicorn, was meant to be. Knowing this, she began reading various books and studying magic, to become more like a Canterlot unicorn. On the side, she worked on her to-be practice. They stayed there for two months before heading back to Ponyville.
Most of Tidy's fellow classmates back in Ponyville were thrown off by her newfound sophisticated personality and began talking less to her. Tidy didn't notice though, as she was busy starting up the clothes line just outside her house. Two years went by until she was 15-years-old. By this time, she had gotten much experience in the "art of the dress", and had gotten well acquainted with Rarity. However, Tidy is slightly jealous of Rarity's success because Tidy herself hasn't been getting too many customers. 
One day, while on her way to the Carousel Boutique to chat with Rarity, Tidy met an earth pony by the name of Trick Star. The two quickly became close friends. When Tidy found out about Trick's lonely life, she invited him to live with her and her family. It took lots of persuasion, but her parents eventually gave in and allowed Trick to enter the household.
Trick and Tidy now spend their days supporting each other on their quests for success.

  Wait... what's Trick Star's special talent again? Becoming a rising star? I'm not sure I completely wrapped my head around that one.

Wait... what's Trick Star's special talent again? Becoming a rising star? I'm not sure I completely wrapped my head around that one.

Cutie marks don't only represent special talents. They can also be symbolic. In this case, it is symbolic for him wanting to develop a talent so that he can finally be seen as special for having his own talent. I hope that clears it up. I tried my best to explain from the top of my head
