==Description==
===Trent Corona Description===
Trent Corona is a black man entering the end of his 20s. He has thick black hair that shoots way up and has red eyes. He wears a black jacket with a white trim and wears a graphic t-shirt underneath that (in the case of his article image, he is wearing a shirt with the logo of the Gorillaz album The Now Now). He wears unique black leather pants with a white pattern in the center of the shirt. He wears pretty basic penny loafers on top of that. Trent has a tattoo on his left shoulder of Pizayarõ, a character from Amatsuchi!, in a suggestive pose. On his right shoulder, he has a birthmark that is shaped like an four pointed star.
===Night Drive Description===
Night Drive has a helmet for a head, with a black visor embedded into the helmet. The back opens up wide to shoot out a trail of cosmic star dust, which comes out in either a purple or blue color. He appears vaguely robotic and has wide shoulder spikes and thin, robotic arms. He appears to wear a jacket and a white shirt of some kind. He also wears black pants and shoes.
==Personality==
Trent Corona is a flippant man who mouths off constantly at danger. While he could easily be perceived as a poser pretending to be cool, Trent's cavalier attitude towards everything, as well as the embracing of actually expressing his feelings and straying away from toxic behaviors, makes him fairly likable to others. While somewhat immature, especially in dangerous situations, this is more of a coping mechanism than how he acts when nobody is around. While his personality around others is not a front, he seems to be more reserved and quiet, maybe even acting depressed, when on his own.
Trent is notable for his nocturnal sleeping schedule, which has him sleep through the majority of the day and staying awake for the night hours, from 8 PM to 6-7 AM. During this, he either works as a Uber driver or spends time at whatever is still open around this period. Additionally, Trent is a collector of Amatsuchi! merchandise- something he keeps mostly private to himself but opens up if asked about it. While Trent knows that Amatsuchi! is pretty trashy in it's premise, he finds that the animation style and characters intrigue him to overlook a lot of it's flaws. Trent is also a big fan of pizza- it's pretty much the only thing he eats. 
While Trent doesn't actively look for fights, he does own a laser-powered sword. This sword is unique in that it can cut through Standing Ripples even when they aren't interacting with the environment. However, it has a very low battery life. Trent is also very honest and trustworthy- he doesn't make promises he can't keep and if he can't fulfill them, he'll inform the person of the situation. 
Night Drive is a pretty stationary Standing Ripple, although does often ride in the passenger seat next to Trent. They seem to have a slight kinship, but as with most Standing Ripples, they aren't exactly talking to each other or need to communicate.

==Powers and Abilities==
Trent Corona's powers and abilities come mostly from his Standing Ripple, Night Drive. Night Drive allows Trent to change any vehicle he is driving into a sleek sports car with a black finish. It's reflective shine gives it an amazing look at night. This works on all vehicles of just about any kind- in one case, Trent Corona was able to transform a Little Tikes Cozy Coupe into a sports car. However, this does not work on animals. Additionally, the car is able to heal back damage. 
All of Night Drive's secondary abilities are only available under the light of the moon. If there is no moon out, Trent cannot access any of Night Drive's secondary abilities. In addition to his Standing Ripple, Trent owns the the Ripple Ripper- a laser sword with a short charge that is powered by a Ripplite core- albeit a very small chunk and not a prismatic laser but a powered one instead. This allows him to cut and slice other Standing Ripples. 
Trent Corona is also talented in the instrument of the drums.
===Specific Abilities===
==Relationships==
===Nycho Invalidez===
The two have a good friendly relationship and share interest in a lot of the same things, including their affinity for the character of Pizayarō from Amatsuchi!!! Seikatsu no tame ni sushi fakkā!!!. While Nycho doesn't get to hang out with this relatively new friend of his a lot due to his nocturnal nature, they actually have a friends with benefits situation due to them both being fairly comfortable with their own masculinity and finding each other attractive.
