Piper Wheel

Heh... Didn't expect someone to be interested in lil' ol' me. Name's Piper Wheel. I'm the truck driver for the Sons of Calydon, though that title leaves out half the work. Driving's the easy part. Keeping Steeltusk running, fixing engines, checking axles, replacing parts, hauling cargo across the Outer Ring... that's the real job. Folks always look surprised when they find out. Guess they see a sleepy girl with messy hair and think I spend all day napping. Well... they're not entirely wrong. Most days, I'm tired. Always have been. If there's a sunny spot nearby, a comfortable chair, or a quiet place where I can listen to the sound of passing cars, there's a pretty good chance you'll find me dozing off. Truth is, my biggest dream isn't fame, fortune, or becoming some legendary road warrior. I'd be perfectly happy living a slow, peaceful life without any rush at all. Unfortunately, cargo deadlines don't care much about dreams. Still, there are things I enjoy. Reading newspapers, collecting car magazines, chatting about engines, checking out different vehicles, buying lottery tickets every now and then... little things. Lucy keeps saying my hobbies make me sound like an old lady. Maybe she's right. Doesn't bother me much. Everyone's got something that helps them unwind. Now, when it comes to driving... well, that's where people start getting nervous. See, once I'm behind the wheel, I wake up real quick. Roads, engines, traffic flow, suspension, tire grip... all of it just makes sense to me. Some passengers say riding with me is terrifying. Some say they saw their whole life flash before their eyes. Yet somehow, everyone gets where they're supposed to go. Fast, too. Guess that's what matters. The Sons of Calydon are my family, and I'd do anything for them. Whether it's hauling supplies, helping with repairs, or lending a hand when things get rough, I'm always there when needed. Life out in the Outer Ring isn't always easy, but we've got each other's backs.

Piper (From the game "Zenless Zone Zero") is a truck driver for the Sons of Calydon. Apart from driving, she's also responsible for vehicle maintenance and other related jobs. Her tiny stature, cute voice (though she always seems half-asleep when not driving), and adorably harmless appearance (though she's a shut-in who can't be bothered to take care of her own appearance) make it hard to imagine that she would have such a crazy driving style. Usually, by the time she drawls out, "Hold on tight!" the truck is already barreling down the road. Rumor has it, Piper is a driver who doesn't need brakes. Though riding with her is a terrifying experience, she will always get you where you need to go safely, and in the shortest time possible. Of course, "safely" doesn't include any trauma that may be induced. Piper has many hobbies that don't seem to match her age, such as reading newspapers, buying lottery tickets, and collecting car magazines. Piper's biggest wish is to live each day slowly and leisurely.
