## Biography

#### Street Racing and Consequences

Growing up, Daisy had an interest in racing, and didn't mind whether she lost or won. As a young woman, she was a street racer on a motorcycle. conquering challenges that nearly costed her life. One racing challenge got her injured, which was caused by a faulty cable for her handlebars. She was arrested and tried in court. By her father's request, Daisy was sentenced under house arrest.

Daisy was summoned by Limeduke Police Department for questioning about her motorcycle incident. She ashamedly confessed about the street races to Captain Douglas Emorik, who believes that her case was caused by Sir RoseTrap. Under the same breath, Officer Emorik warned if Daisy wasn't a victim of RoseTrap's schemes, she could still be charged for her reckless driving.

#### Interest from Merrins and Krizeler

Leaving the premises, a hefty man took interest in her, despite the dislike from Officer Peter Krizeler. A few days later, Daisy was summoned again by Limeduke Police, but it was Krizeler who wanted her to drop the act and participate in "a program that helps people according to their situations." Daisy followed him into a special room where Limeduke's Special Patrol Combat are stationed. The same man who seemingly recognized her was Humphrey Merrins, also known as "Hummer" (Daisy joked that she would call him *Hummer H-2*). Daisy revealed that during a previous racing challenge, she had to help her racing rival's family until the encounter of a mysterious monster. She also attempted to fight a beggar who was filled with thorns because he owned a personal vehicle. The mentioned story was how Daisy was recognized by Merrins, and was given an orientation about what the SPC is doing to counter Sir RoseTrap's attacks towards vehicle owners.

## Personality

Daisy is a go-getter, who tends to do her best to finish a task, notably her street racing challenges. After an arrest and supposedly short house arrest sentence, she redeems herself by becoming Racer 9, and is more confident with her new role as a super traffic patrol officer, protecting drivers and the general public from Sir RoseTrap's possible schemes. Racer 9 would also get comically offended if she were compared to Power Rangers, which she hilariously deflects.
