Sasayaki
(sah-SIGH-yah-kee)
Sasayaki is a motorcycle Computerized Alert Relay Systems owned by Lin Vu. It is black and silver. It has a built-in personality but it does not often use voice to communicate. Instead, it can maneuver on its own and display words and images on the little built in screen. Though Sasayaki started off in a very basic state, the motorcycle has gone through several upgrades.
Like its owner, Sasayaki is very quiet, even its name meaning 'whisper' in Japanese. This name was given to the motorcycle by its owner.
Sasayaki is quiet, not only in lack of voice, but in movement. Its motor can be extremely silent when in stealth mode, causing it not to makemuch sound at all when sneaking up on unsuspecting enemies or spy targets. The tires are quiet as well as the engine. The movements of this vehicle are smooth and meticulous. there are also a lot of hidden compartments on it that can hold various weapons and gadgets. The headlights are bright but can be dimmed to increase stealth. Sasayaki comes with a sleek helmet that allows for night vision and has an electronic interface that corresponds with the digital components of the motorcycle, allowing seamless communication between the vehicle and its driver.
Sasayaki has built-in locking mechanisms that prevent theft, but the motorcycle will also detect when a rider who is not Lin is attempting to take it or drive it. In these cases, Sasayaki has several defence tactics including alarms to alert Lin of the attempted theft, and weapons that can help fend off unwanted persons from interacting with it without permission in other ways. Sasayaki has been enhanced with a few lasers and procjectiles, though it is primarily a normal motorcycle. It has a working radio that can be turned up loud so that everyone can hear, but can also be redirected to channel straight through the corresponding helmet so that only the owner can hear. There is an hitch on the side so that a bucket car can be attached if needed, but there is not one currently present. The strength of the vehicle also allows for it to tow things that may be considered quite heavy to be towed by a normal motorcycle.
The vehicle is able to drive itself around, balancing despite the fact that it only has two wheels. The technology that helps to center and balance it allows for this movement. The automated enhanced personality of the vehicle has full control of all the technological components, and can even deploy or retracte the kickstand when needed. The vehicle has the ability to comprehend complex instructions and formulate plans of its own, while coordinating and relaying the information to its owner. Lin enjoys communicating with Sasayaki, as it is a relatable being to associate with.
