Kwikstart: The Hero who Messed Around too Much (Patreon)

Kayrina Robins was born Karter Robins to Alia and Shadow Robins. He had a loving family that supported him a great deal throughout childhood. No dark storyline with his parents as they both loved him and remained loving parents.

During puberty, Karter felt as though he had body dysmorphia and initially thought of transitioning until he met Joaquin Infierno [Junior]. They became close friends almost instantly with Karter absolutely enjoying Joaquin's dorky nature. He encouraged Joaquin to continue his pursuit of the fabled art career. In return, Joaquin helped him to understand himself and his situation a little better.

Being very diminuitive and feeling very feminine, he adopted the name Kayrina in place of Karter and for the first few years of high school, identified as female and even dated Joaquin as both a means of defense, but also because he genuinely liked him. During the relationship, Kayrina would find that he was really only attracted to Joaquin because of his femininity and as a result, fell into a rut where he began questioning himself and his identity even more. Realizing he was mostly using his best friend, he ended the relationship which left Joaquin sad, but he understood.

After Joaquin, Kayrina did some soul searching and found that she was more comfortable identifying as male, but kept the name Kayrina because he felt it was way cooler than Karter.

Shortly after this, Kayrina began increasingly working his legs out to alleviate stress and eventually, his legs grew so strong that he became the fastest guy alive, gaining the power of super speed. Having nobody else to tell about this, he quickly texted Joaquin, who was in the midst of dealing with his own situation, but still made the time to talk to his best friend.

This conversation ended up birthing the hero name, Kwikstart, with both boys bouncing ideas off one another to come up with an outfit. Thus, a new hero was born and crime quickly took notice, but nobody could do a thing to combat Kwikstart. He was too fast for anybody to keep up with, even the superheroes couldn't see him.

Due to this, Kwik developed a severely cocky attitude as nobody was on his level. He frequently taunted the criminals as well as the heroes using his superior speed to his advantage. Despite not having a whole lot of physical strength, Kwikstart was still stronger than most due to the momentum physics of his attacks dealing infinitely more damage than a normal person. He tried incorporating kicks since his legs were so defined, but quickly realized he ran the risk of damaging them and thus not being capable of top speed.

With his newfound cockiness, he began even taunting his friends more. Namely Joaquin, who he frequently would show up and pants him just to laugh at him. While he didn't like it much, Kwikstart always made sure to hug his best friend to soothe his aching ego. Eventually, however, Kwik became bored with operating in Hell City and decided to travel to Mobious City in hopes of finding more criminals and heroes to mess with. Nobody in the Land of the Sky had ever seen a character like Kwikstart and as a result, he became a sex symbol and ladies man overnight. His favorite heroes to mess with were Super-Nova, Mamacita, Stretch Lass, and Nuke Nia.

Since nobody was his equal, he again fell bored and decided hero work wasn't his jam and decided to become a wanderer. During this phase in his life, he found out something terrible about himself: his speed had become so great that it was possible for him to travel through time. Why was this terrible? It offered Kwikstart a new way to have fun without realizing the consequences.

He began hopping dimensions and stopping at various points in the timeline to relive some of his glory, but would also travel back deeper into history to manipulate scenarios that would create greater threats for him to face in the future. Doing this caused several repercussions such as a Super-Nova that went evil, Joaquin's grandfather, Rex, losing his decisive battle with his sworn enemy, and his best friend becoming severely bullied.

He's created so many alternative futures and realities with his shenanigans and because of his great, unmatched speed, nobody can really keep him in check. Upon realizing the damage he does each time he travels through time, he shrugs and says to himself "No big deal really, I got this anyway!" and he usually does, but it doesn't change that each time travel adventure he has, he alters reality. Sure, each time, he defeats the big bad created in the new reality, but the lives of his friends and fellow heroes are altered severely.

Is he hero or villain? Neither, he's just a guy running through life trying to have as much fun as possible regardless of who he hurts or benefits in the long run.

He's always there for his friends, even if they're in situations he inadvertently caused.
