## Biography

### Early Life

Mike Chiltkn grew up in Detroit Deluxe After he was found alone after a Grimm attack by the city’s founder Abraham Kane, became one of his top cadets with promise and when on his first assignment to clear some buildings in Motorcity, Mike discovered it was a nest of Grimm, which should not be possible as Detroit Deluxe was made into a fortress to protect the citizens.
With the awareness of the Grimm now able ot break in, Mike after his first battle formed a team of his own from Motorcity to protect Detroit from Grimm and criminal activities as he was trained to do, gathered the fastest and toughest drivers he can find and became the leader of the Burners: Chuck, Julie Kapulsky, Dutch Gordy and Texas Matthews. Taken under the guidance of Jacob Davidson who helped build Detroit Deluxe out of the dark times.

### Acceleracers

Mike recalls the time when the world was plunged into chaos by a villain named Crom Cruach while he helped kept the city safe from possible invasions of the demonic army. Both he and Chuck were in a hurry to found powerfuels for the barriers before a horde of Grimm could break in, they were ambushed by a swarm of Centinels before leaving a detonator to wipe them out and came to the Burners and defenders' aide to stop the Lancers and a Geist. MIke called for his team to take out the Lancers and focus on the Geist to destroy the form it possesed to make it's vulnerable form exposed for the attack, once Mike got himself onto the Geist and forced the spectral out, he destroyed it and saved a section of Motercity from being overrun.

As the Burners celebrate their victory, they suddenly encounter a robot named Gig that Jacob knew very well and not happy until it told him about a doctor named Peter Tezla was injured and requested his help to stop a woman named Gelorum and the Racing Drones. MIke offered to help him out over hearing how dangerous these drones can be, along with his team and friends, Jacob in reluctance accepted and left the city with some of their friends to take

   over while they were gone. Learning much about the previous events such as the World Race, the Accelerons, and the Wheel of Power. They arrived at the ruins of the abandoned base called Highway 35 and were introduced to two teams of drivers, the Teku and the Metal Maniacs who Jacob was familiar with and the leader being one of his former pupils. Led by Brian Kadeem to the new destination, the Acceledrome and found it inside a mountain as a hide out for anyone such as Gelorum searching for Tezla.

Inside they found the whole base with tracks and a message by the CEO himself about the Racing Realms, listening to the talks between the two teams and another named Lani Tam, but during the conversation between the teams, the Wheel of Power started rotating as a realm was about to be open.

   Gathering his team in their cars and ready to enter the Racing Realms alongside the others, jumping through the portal and entered the Storm Realm, a completely different world unlike any other. What Mike and others did not realise until Jacob warned him through the radio that the portal only stays open for 1 hour or they be trapped inside forever. So they had to make it through the portal while on a look out for the Racing Drones. The first drone Mike and Chuck encountered was a Vehicon general named Jetstorm, taunting and trying to kill the Burners from trying to win the race. Teaming up with the Teku members Vert Wheeler and Kurt Wylde as they were approaching the end of the track, but the Racing Drones overpowered them with unique powers and abilities, despite their efforts of taking on both the Drones and Vehicons, they were no match and lost the race.

Helping the other drivers recover and fix their cars, Mike visited the unconcious Taro after he was struck by lightening from the Storm Realm, mad at him for leaving Kadeem which resulting in his fate by the drones but relieved he would recover and needed to focus on stopping the machines from becoming more powerful and get the two rival gangs to work together. Despite what happened, Mike stayed true to his word to help stop the Drones and later confronted Tezla who knew about the dangers of the realms as well as the Drones. They recieved a surprise visit of the Metal Maniacs members, Tork Maddox, and the Teku leader Nolo Pasaro alongside Shirako Takimoto who were called by the Maniacs' mechanic Monkey after both Jacob and Kurt requested for more help without Tezla knowing. And also the surprise arrival of another driver from Tork's gang named Porkchop. With more drivers to help Mike helped the others gear up as the second realm was opened, the Swamp Realm. Determined to avoid the same mistakes from before and told his team to be ready for them.
