Dria the Eagle

Dria is a eagle humanoid/Mobian who's part of Team Dragoon. She is owned by Hero of Team Dragoon.
== History ==
Dria the Eagle was born in Hill Top Hideaway, a small village in the Hill Top Zone, to Gust the Eagle and another eagle, who died shortly before Dria was born. Growing up, she was taught basic things like reading, writing, speaking English, and the basic maths, but everything else she learned was about surviving on Hill Top Zone, due to the many lava pools in the zone, and combatting Badniks, due to the patrols that would pop up. Despite all this danger, she would become very friendly, and would use her skills to act as the village's hero. A few days before she turned 18, she met her future Wisp companion, a Crimson Eagle wisp who was escaping Badniks. She saved it and the two became bonded nearly immediately.
Sadly though, about a month later, Eggman would start the War Of Forces, which would endanger the village like nothing else, as the Mega Badniks built during the time attacked the village. Dria and the other village residents were able to fight off the Badnik assaults, but it couldn't last. So Dria decided to join the Resistance in order to get her village protection through sending them Wispons and support. She would get a Burst Wispon, but she never quite bonded with the wisp inside and would end up in danger through most of the war, but she did get Wispons for the village, which helped them survive the assault. When Sonic returned, she would participate in the Big Wave operation and the Eggman Empire Fortress attack, which would lead her to dealing with Infinite. She wasn't scared of Infinite, but she could see his power right in front of her, so she never tried to attack him directly, focusing on his dopple army instead, which she proved incredibly effective against, for a soldier only armed with a Wispon, having a particular skill at taking out the Zavok clones.
Eventually though, the war ended, but she stayed on to help the world, and was sent on many village defense missions when the Eggman Empire got it's cohesion back together, helping save villages with the rest of the Resistance, and even staying on when the Resistance reformed into the Restoration. Then, the Metal Virus struck. She would be sent to help save people during many extractions, but would end up a Zombot during the extraction at Glass Hill, and took part in Zavok's Attack on Angel Island unwillingly, before being cured by Super Silver.
As she continued to work for the Restoration, under Jewel, she would find herself feeling like she wasn't doing enough in the Security Corps. She would try to find Eggman bases on her own, but couldn't find any. For a bit, she considered quitting the Restoration and going home. But then, Lanolin would form the New Diamond Cutters, which inspired Dria to propose the idea for a full on militia that would operate independently of Sonic and friends, and would go after all the Eggman bases they can find to give Sonic time for the bigger threats.
The New Diamond Cutters themselves would advocate for this, seeing as a small strike team isn't capable of defending the world. Due to this, the Restoration would form the Badnik Corps, and Dria would join as it's first member. New members would flow in slowly but surely, including Alan, then Srish, Alas, and finally Silence. Eventually though, The Badnik Corps would gain enough members to be a fully fledged Eggman stopping force. The top operatives would form teams, including Alan, Dria, Srish, Silence, and for a time, Alas, to form Team Dragoon.
=== The Team Dragoon Era ===
As Dria went on mission after mission with Team Dragoon, her need to help was satisfied tenfold, so she began focusing her energy on getting Team Dragoon to have fun. She started by taking them along to the Olympic Games when they happened, Team Dragoon wouldn't be needed after all, Eggman was already going. There, she made good friends with Mario and his crew, who also came to these multidimensional Olympic Games. She also got to know her team better, even Alan, who was mostly focused on stopping the predictable Eggman plot before it began. While they would have no hand in that, Dria saw that Alan was a dedicated man who wished to do the right thing, and from then on, her goal was to make him relax and enjoy more than just his job.
From there, Dria and the crew would take up Extreme Gear riding. While both Alan and Silence did not want to at first, she managed to get them both to see the value in learning to ride a Extreme Gear. From there, Alan would gain the same appreciation for the sport that his teammates did. Silence, however, would not gain this appreciation, and would prefer to stay out of it, only riding for the sake of the skill. This is about when the team would get personalized boards, made for them by Tails. 
Dria would also build a deep friendship with many of Sonic's female friends, especially Tangle, who could relate to having a friend who doesn't really want to interact. Dria would do many activities with all of Sonic's female friends, but especially Tangle, and occasionally Whisper when she came along. These adventures would lead to Whisper looking into Team Dragoon, out of intrigue that another professional Eggman-fighting force had popped up.
Eventually though, Eggman would kidnap her parents as well as her friend's, and she would charge headfirst into the obvious trap with the team, being key to saving everyone from the Iron Dragoons and Shadow Androids attacking them. She would come out of the experience with nightmares of failing that day, which would take intensive therapy to get to the bottom of.
The whole incident would cause Whisper to follow the team for some time, being reminded of the old Diamond Cutters. Dria took notice, but could never get a good look at her, and so couldn't recognize her, just seeing her as a weird onlooker who may or may not be of the Iron Series, up until she finally approached the team to ask to join them. There was barely a vote on that front, with it being a unanimous yes, leading the team to reform into the Diamond Dragoons, which became the rest of her life.
== Appearance ==
Dria has red feathers, green and blue eyes and has her headfeathers flat. For clothes, she wears a suit similar to what the Security Corps wear, minus the helmet, over a black, somewhat worn down shirt, white leggings, and no shoes. She'll normally not wear the suit when she's not on a mission. For the Olympic Games, when she's in a challenge, she'll wear fitting sportswear in black and white, sometimes with pink sides, otherwise she wears her normal attire. When swimming, she wears a black, white, and pink swimsuit. In the winter or other snowy places, she'll wear a fluffy white jacket, decorated with Eagle Wisp pins, and special boots. When she goes Extreme Gear riding, she wears goggles and trades her black shirt and white pants for a volcanically colored racing suit.
== Personality ==
Dria is that person you can't reasonably get mad at. She's sweet, heroic, and cares deeply for her friends, and won't hesitate to assist someone in need. Despite this, should you push her too far, even if you're her friend, she'll unleash a fury upon you characterized by "warning" shots from her Wispon. As well, sometimes she gets in a mood where she'll start messing with her friends, often in a flirty way, just to get a reaction. She's not one for the spotlight, preferring to assist her friends instead of taking a lead role. When things stop making sense to her, she'll quietly question it and try to understand it herself. Among Team Dragoon, she cares the deepest about her family, having only been among the Resistance to get her family support.
== Powers and abilities ==
As a bird, Dria is capable of flight. Aside from that, she wasn't born with superpowers, but did gain some when the Power Asteroid arrived. She is also skilled with a Burst Wispon and her own personal Wispon. She's also developed a unnaturally high top speed from her constant contact with Sonic. As well, at some point, Dria and her friends were taught how to rail grind by Sonic, Dria picking it up at a rapid pace. Her fighting style is all about attacking from the air and backing up her friends.
== Transformations ==
=== Super Dria ===
Through use of the Chaos Emeralds's positive and negative energies, Dria can become Super Dria. In this form, she gains the usual benefits of a Super State, but can also fly faster than normal ones due to her abilities. She also enhances her Wisp companion, allowing it use of it's transformation on it's own, and she can combine with it to use Super Eagle, as well as a large power increase for her Wispon. As for appearance, her feathers turn gold, except for the ones near her hands, which turn obsidian purple. She also gains a subdued super aura.
==== Super Eagle ====
Super Eagle takes the natural fast flight of Eagle, and tenfolds it, allowing for ridiculous speeds. It's duration is also enhanced, and it doesn't tire out the Wisp, allowing constant usage.
=== Omni Energy Dria ===
Like Alan, she once combined with every Wisp known of at the time to become Omni Energy Dria. In that state, she could use all the wisp's abilities at once, for about a minute.
=== Superpowered Dria ===
When the Power Asteroid passed overhead, Dria gained the ability to make things float by touching them, and control them. After that day, the powers could be reactivated for a hour by using Power Energy. As Power Energy became more common, Dria would tap into the powers more and more. It's less a physical transformation than a ability transformation. 
=== Elite Dria ===
In certain cases, Dria will don armor. While wearing it, she takes on the "Elite" moniker. The increases in defensive power, the looks, and any other assorted benefits vary depending on the armor, and not all armors deserve the Elite moniker.
== Dimensional Dreaming ==
Like her friends, Dria experiences dimensional dreams on occasion due to her frequently exploring other dimensions. The character she takes the role of in these is a girl with a large sword.
