The Aether Rangers is a racing team from Avishkar that competes in the Ghirapur Grand Prix.[1] The team is co-led by Chief Engineer and public representative Pia Nalaar and star pilot Spitfire.[1][2]
Description[]
The Aether Rangers is a team that brings humans, elves, vedalken, and dwarves together to race for the glory of Avishkar and the Avishkar Assembly.[1] These aether-riding pilots and engineers are a cross-generation, cross-class team of comrades that combine the best of pre-revolutionary Avishkar with the hope-chasing cohort of the new generation.
In addition to their Grand Prix team, the Aether Rangers field several lower-division squadrons, funded and outfitted by the Avishkar Assembly.[1] The main rival of the Aether Rangers is the Cloudspire Racing Team, the winners of the inaugural interplanar Ghirapur Grand Prix. Chandra Nalaar is the co-captain of Cloudspire, a veritable coup pulled off by Cloudspire that has lit a fire under the Aether Rangers.
Vehicles[]
Vehicles of the Aether Rangers express their hopeful, open approach to the unknown.[1] Light and strong, Ranger vehicles are built to race ahead of, fly above the fray, pierce adversity, and streak through, quick as flashing light riding currents of ramjet-fired aether.
Team captain Spitfire's vehicle featured a ten-cylinder aether inverter system, two cyclonic mitigators, and golden storm pistons.[3] A button on the steering wheel shoots a bladed arc of lightning from the grille.[4] It can travel at half the speed of sound.[5] Her racing suit features three aerosolized aether cylinders hooked up by glowing brass filigree tubes to induction ports that deliver the aether to her body.
Chief mechanic Pia Nalaar pilots a mobile engineering vehicle to support the team.[4]
