Montana Crichton

Character Summary
Montana "Monta" Crichton is a 15 year old velociraptor who's the protagonist of Super Dimension Starlights, a kind-hearted, if a bit naive and has a rebellious nature to him. He was originally a lackey for the villain Major Mechanika but later became friends with Jetstream and started on his own journey on becoming a hero but by following his own rules.

He loves working on machines and building things but really loves rock music and while he wants to be a hero, he also wants to become a rock star. Monta formed a band with his best friend Ramon, Masamune, and Oroko, known as Rebel Barrage. Despite his young age and naivete, Monta is a technical genius which is helped by his hobby and his natural intelligence of being a velociraptor. He's also a really fast runner. Monta later gains Electrokinesis the ability to control electricity, able to control the electricity from the tasers installed in his arms.

In Cross Fight Tag Tournament, Monta along with Jetstream entered the tournament after learning their friend Terry was used to send people from multiple dimensions into one singular one. Monta left Jetstream's side once in the tournament and got his team together in order to prove himself.

Personality
Described by his friends as a carnivore with a kind heart. Despite his upbringing as an evil lackey, Monta is overall kind and caring. Always thinking of others but unfortunately doing it at his own expense. He can be pretty naive and manipulated by others, which leads his friends to be worried for him. He has a rebellious nature to him. Either because he's a teenager, because his of his rough life under Mechanika, or because of his love of rock music, Monta grew to gain somewhat of an anti-authority rebellious nature to him. Sometimes doing things like sneaking out when he feels like it, and not being "respectful" to those above him.

Monta is a big fan of rock music, mainly punk rock and indie rock. He loves talking about his favorite band, albums, and even concerts that he'd sneak off to see. He also has a habit of playing his music out loud.

Abilities
Monta is highly intelligent despite his young age. Having a high mechanical intelligence, and works on machines from fixing up cars and TVs to building mechs and even building bombs. Although his programming knowledge isn't the best and uses tutorials to figure out how to program. It's currently unknown whether velociraptors where he came from have high intelligence or Monta is just an outlier. He's also pretty agile and is a fast runner. While he doesn't have super speed, he's quick on his feet and can run very far before running out of breath.

He later gains the ability of Electrokinesis, after discovering that his arms have tasers installed inside of them by Major Mechanika without Monta's knowledge or consent. But the tasers were poorly installed and had too much electricity in them, leading Monta to learn how to control any leftover voltage through his arms, and onto the rest of his body. He can use his electricity to cover himself in electricity in and outside his body. Which can give him the ability to move even faster (to the point where he could even move in super speeds) but with a massive drawback. Due to the electricity inside his body speeding him up, his heart beats faster and if he's not careful, Monta can suffer a heart attack. Monta's learning to control this ability and gain more abilities including shooting the electricity out in short blasts, or even coating his tail with electricity.

Monta is a guitarist and while not an expert it's something he's still pretty good at learning the guitar ever since he first saw his first concert, Double Dragon Twister in one of their first concerts. He quickly picked up how to use a guitar, and even built his guitar by hand.

History
5000 years ago, the universe was destroyed and in order to fix itself it grabbed things and elements from other worlds and different times onto its center, this event was called the Super Dimension Impact. This event gave birth to the planet Fronterra and it's still something that's still happening even to today. Some people are even sent to Fronterra each and every one of them known as Lost Starlights.

Montana Crichton (better known to his friends as Monta) was a Lost Starlight at birth. Hatched 15 years ago right after appearing in Fronterra. He later became a lackey of Major Mechanika, a former professor of robotics who became a supervillain and Monta's idol for his works on robotics including a robot body. Unfortunately working under and living with Mechanika wasn't the best time for him. Monta, being a lackey, has been treated as lackey. Being forced to follow his plans and being yelled at by him and pestered by Mechanika to have a robot body. During this time, he lost his arms due to an "accident" by one of Mechanika's robots and ended up having them replaced by robotic arms.

While he was a lackey, Monta ended up befriending Jetstream after being separated from Major Mechanika during a bank heist. Being around and stay with Jetstream and his friends and being around such a positive aura, made Monta rethink everything and his relationship with Mechanika. This took Monta down a difficult path to wanting to do good.

After defeating Mechanika and severing ties with him, Monta went to start his new life and make up for his misdeeds as a villain.

Trivia

 * Monta originally had mechanical arms due to having accurate raptor arms being a bit of a hassle for the artist to draw
 * Montana's name comes from the state Montana, where it was mistakenly said where velociraptor bones were found, in stories like Jurassic Park. Monta's last name Crichton is based on the author of the work.
 * In Monta's original backstory he crash landed in Fronterra after escaping from his home planet which was taken over.
 * Monta being a feathered raptor is a deliberate design choice, as there aren't many known feathered dinosaur characters out there, as most dinosaurs are based around the lizard based designs.
 * Monta's headphones serve as a hearing aid.
