Backstory

Beatz is a one-of-a-kind robot created from the discarded scrap of the neon city. Built with an incredibly advanced and realistic human-like AI, Beatz has developed a remarkable personality that blurs the line between machine and human. Originally constructed from parts scavenged by Rivet, Beatz was designed to assist with day-to-day operations in the outsiders headquarters, but he quickly evolved into much more. Now, Beatz is not only the crew's DJ, trainer, and support system, but also a close companion to both Crash and Rivet.

‍

The crew’s headquarters is an old, abandoned school deep within the neon city wasteland. Beatz maintains the Headquarters, ensuring everything runs smoothly. His adaptability and self-learning AI mean he is constantly evolving, not just as a support figure, but also as a combatant and strategist.

Fighting Style

Beatz’s combat style is just as unique as his personality. His approach to fighting is built around his passion for music, specifically breakdancing martial arts. When in combat, Beatz uses fluid, rhythmic movements that combine breakdancing and martial arts techniques. His robotic frame gives him incredible flexibility, allowing him to move with both precision and speed. His spinning kicks, flips, and acrobatic maneuvers are not only visually stunning but also highly effective in combat.

But Beatz doesn’t stop at physical attacks—he uses soundwaves from his DJ gear to disrupt, disorient, and damage enemies. His beats literally become part of the battlefield, using sound-based attacks to enhance his breakdance moves. Whether he’s knocking down foes with an energetic spin or blasting them with the power of music, Beatz’s fighting style is a perfect fusion of rhythm and raw power.

Breakdance Barrage:

Combining martial arts with breakdancing, Beatz unleashes a flurry of spinning kicks, flips, and acrobatic attacks that are not only deadly but stylish. The neon lights from his body pulse in sync with his movements, making his attacks both a visual and physical assault.
