-Traits-
Thick HideFor some reason one or another, this hedgehog can take quite the beating. For so long, she has fended for herself. In return, her pain tolerance is much higher then the normal hedgehog. Twisted joints, head injuries, broken bones, it doesn’t matter. No matter how painful the injury may seem, she will only curse bitterly and rise again. Someone would have to inflict serious injuries on this hedgehog if they wished to defeat her in combat.
Gimme a Wrench!Tara is an accomplished engineer, although she will never admit it. While her main focus is air gear, she is quite the technician or mechanic. Although her skills are slightly rusty, she is able to repair some difficulties or flaws in hover cars, and is able to repair fried power circuits or broken generators. If it’s broken, she probably has a good chance to repair it.
-A brief summary on the white hedgehog-
Tara actually grew up alone most of her life. Her father passed away when she was four, and her mother was believed to have suffered from a mental condition of some sort that lead her to abandon her own child. This lead to a very difficult life for the white hedgehog, who found herself alone at the tender age of six. She was of course set into a foster family once child care services found out what had happened. The families Tara received were usually kind young couples unable to have children of their own, but Tara would often find herself out of place. Several times she would go through a runaway scenario. She’d leave her foster family, and stay on the streets for a week or two until child care service found her and sent her off to another family. She wasn’t acting rebellious, she was just a seven year old who was confused, and didn’t understand what was happening, and why so many people wanted to replace her parents.
Her education was choppy at best, she knew how to read, write, and all that other basic things, but most of her education was actually founded from a library rather then a classroom. Her attention quickly turned towards air gears. She couldn’t afford to buy one at the time, and all the other kids had them, so she focused her skills on building her own. She was successful, of course, the board was scrappy, and low quality compared to other gears, but the young hedgehog didn’t mind, she had something to do. Her new family was actually a couple who had quite some money in the bank, when they saw that their foster child had actually built her own air gear rather then ask them for money to buy one, they quickly decided to improve her talents and send her to a school for engineers. Despite Tara’s history with schools, and how her running away would cut into her education, she excelled.
Of course, she actually dropped out half way through her second school year. By then, she was fifteen, and had developed her skills as a air gear rider so much, that she was now able to completely support herself on her own. She dropped out of the foster care program, bought her own apartment, and started her career as a professional rider. Most of her races are in underground tracks, where the focus is more on winning then safety. This only made her a better rider, and a far more dangerous one on the track, any competition she was in, she would usually end up in top three. Of course, since these competition of hers are underground, it isn’t exactly mainstream stuff, so not many people know her face, besides hard-core air gear fans.
-How Fast is Fast?-
Name: Star Crash
Type: Board
Highest Speed: 400 mph
Extremely light, what this board makes up for in speed, it lacks in protection. The simplest dent can completely shatter this board, leaving it a very bad choice for new riders. This board was designed for fast turns, and is able to fly insanely low to the ground. It is also very difficult to control. It’s light weight means that it is very easy for the board to experience turbulence and possibly throw off the rider. Tara is probably the only one who has ever really mastered this board, but that’s mostly because she’s the only one to have ridden it.
Name: White Scourge
Type: Skates
Highest Speed: 650 mph
These skates are scary. Dangerous, scary, and not safe at all. These skates are the fastest air gears you’ve ever seen, and Tara is actually scared of them. Almost super sonic speed, plus their light weight material, and you have a death trap. Crash these things at high speed, and you will probably die. Tara has only used them several times, but each time she finds herself unable to reach their true speed. These skates are actually more like white boots with a single black streak, you can actually walk around in them, but click the heel, and the air gears will turn on. Better hang on tight.
-Attacks-
Wind Spiral
A move that requires a board air gear to perform. Tara circles around a opponent at fast speeds, and then using the air gear like a blade, she will perform a spiral, slicing the opponent with the sharp side of the air gear.
Collide
Utilizing skate air gears, Tara will vanish in a torrent of wind and then suddenly appear by the opponent. She will then perform a spiral kick and slam one foot into the side of the opponent’s head. If against a larger enemy, she will jump to perform the attack.
Homing Attack
This move can be utilized with or without air gear. Tara will jump forward at her opponent, crashing into them with both feet before propelling herself at another enemy, this attack lasts as long as there are opponents to launch at. With air gear, Tara can only use her skates to perform this, but with skates, Tara will shut down her skates before hitting a enemy, and then switch them on again to shoot her like a rocket.
Zoom
A move in which Tara bolts forward at extreme speeds, on either skates or a board. When she is moving at such speeds, she’ll need to stop and then zoom in another direction, creating a zigzag of white. This attack can slice through enemy lines, because she basically uses the air around her to work like a knife. Of course, Tara also experiences a tunnel vision of sorts, and only do this for so long until she becomes sick.
Flip
Tara will charge the opponent, on a air gear or otherwise, and then jump over them and attack from behind with either a gun or a knife. It’s a good way to distract the opponent or surprise them with the sudden charge. It will leave them vulnerable to the strike from behind.
Drift
A move in which Tara utilizes her abilities as a air gear rider to weave back and forth through groups of foes. She will send out controlled burst of air from her air gears, each burst pushing her back and forth, side to side, or in any direction she pleases. It allows her to dodge melee attacks, or projectiles.
Grind
Tara is able to land on a rail or pipe and ride down it. Air gear or otherwise. This move is pretty basic, and Tara can do it with her eyes closed. It can be used as a way to move over obstacles or just a fast way to go down stairs. Either way, it can be helpful.
