:bulletblue: Full name: Albedo "Ace" Harper
Origins of the name:
  • Albedo is an astronomy term in which indicates the reflective properties of an object. A pure mirror has 100% albedo, whereas a black hole has 0% albedo.
  • Ace is a nickname his father gave him as a child; a sort of memento to the ol' Lombax's piloting days.
  • Harper is the name of a star. No, not a rock star or celebrity, a literal burning ball of gas millions of miles away from our little, floating, wet blue pebble called Earth.
:bulletorange: Age: 14 years
:bulletyellow: Gender: Male, obviously
:bulletorange: Species: Lombax (Semi-albino)
:bulletyellow: Birthday: October 28th
:bulletorange: Height: 4'4 Eshtar measurement (4'10 in ours [1.4732 meters])
:bulletyellow: Fighting type: Technical
Fighting ability: None/ Tech Specialist- Ace is a tech wonder and uses his mechanical talents to create gizmos and gadgets to assist himself.
Ace is no fighter, but if he must, he'll heavily rely on his technology to aid him in battle. No tech, no Ace; in other words, if he has no tech, he'll run off lickity-split due to a huge lack of confidence. His tools increase his self-confidence, but when they're gone, so is his confidence.

Tools/ Weapons:


Spacious Pack

This is an enhanced version of his own invention the Omni-Pack. It has all of the original functions such as a spacious inside for storing his tools and other items, a Nav Unit, and a propulsion system that can maintain him in the air for a short time, allowing him to glide down gently. Like lots of his tech, this item is powered by kinetic energies, and uses them for flight. It's capable of becoming upgraded to a special type of Deep Pouch.  

Omni-Wrench- Long shaft

Ace's second primary tool. This wrench was originally his father's, but since the ol' Lombax now has a newer one, Ace took it and gave it a few... tweaks. It has several functions which include a wrench mode(standard) with extendable shaft for extra range, kinetic bolt attack, and a hacker designed to hack certain devices. Its main focus is on kinetic energy-based attacks.

:bulletblue: Info- In a nutshell:
Albedo is the son of Don Harper, former Ace pilot for the Lombax Praetorian Guard and current starship engineer. His father is retired and lives in a small house with a large garage across from it; both of which are located outside of the Lombax city's limits, since both he and "Ace" are outcasts from the city. The young boy used to live with his mother in the city until she unexpectedly passed away several months ago, and was left in his banished father's care. Ace holds no grudges towards his father and loves him dearly, despite the elderly Lombax's flaws. The young Lombax does miss his mother greatly, even though she hated his father for some weird reason.

Ace is a strange Lombax in color due to his semi-albino fur hues, which was often the main subject in taunts and teases from other, much more normal Lombax children. Although their bullying was hurtful, he remains rather relaxed and cheery. He's a soft-spoken young 'bax, and is quite optimistic, although quiet. He's not afraid to be bold and speak his mind, and often does so, but lacks courage in most things. In a fight or flight situation, he'd fight, but with his hair standing on end; when push comes to shove, he'll try his best to defend his friends, although he'd be shaking and very nervous. He's a bit timid, but will do his best to swallow it down if he needs to be brave, which in all honesty, he is not.

Despite his scaredy-cat attitude, he's a fantastic mechanic and specializes in tools 'n trinkets, much like Blaze; although, since he is a pure Lombax, he is far better than she is at inventing things. He has a background in starship repair, thanks to his father, but has a passion for other machinery such as advanced Omni-Wrenches and something he calls the Omni-Pack -clever, I know. Much to his dismay, he has no skills in the creation nor repair of advanced robotic mech, like Oswald for example.

Personality: 


Timid -  
Brave....ish - 
Soft-Spoken - 
Cheerful/ Optimistic - 

:bulletblue: Extra:
:bulletyellow: He has a thing for hoodies.
:bulletorange: He dreams of travel amongst the stars, and adventure in the deep realms of space. He also wishes to one day see the old dimension that his kind originate from, and perhaps visit their old planet.
:bulletyellow: He's a big fan of the World Jumpers, thanks to his father telling him the adventures Blaze told the old Lombax during her stay with him.
:bulletorange: He hopes to one day challenge Ceilia to a match in her favorite video game. Truly, that would be the battle of the ages.
:bulletyellow: Although he has never seen a robot of his kind, the young Lombax wants to meet Oswald one day and examine the small robot's machinery.
:bulletorange: Ace looks up to Blaze, and sees Asoné as a sort of role-model.
:bulletyellow: He's great at making miniatures and figures. It's sort of an odd hobby aside from his tinkering/ inventing.
:bulletorange: Living up to his species' most infamous trait, Ace invented something called
"Stop-Your-Socks". These socks have amazing grip.... too amazing, in fact. He didn't quite get it right, so now the socks have so much grip that wearers have a hard time moving at all due to the socks holding onto the ground so tightly.
Ace also created the
"Spec Hat" which is a lightweight hat that has zoom-capable spectacles attached. Unfortunately, the specs were just a bit on the narrow side, but the hat was quite popular amongst the high-school level boys for some reason. 
Finally, he crafted something he called
"Pandora's Wine bottle". It's literally a wine bottle that is impossible to open.

I...freaking...LOVE this guy! What a great design, and a great bio! You've given a character to a lombax that I'd imagine few people would expect. They all want any lombax to be another Ratchet. But the lombaxes are as diverse a species as any in terms of character, interests, hobbies, pursuits, etc.


Nicely done!
