Profile:
Nyx Mortar is currently the oldest driver still racing in the Professional Circuit! His racing career is one of the most stunning reads a racing fan can dive into. He got his start in 2205 and not only earned his place in people's hearts, but also on the roster for the Caelum Run Four Separate Times! This is an unheard of feat that no other driver has managed to accomplish, including the famed Maximillian Fairchild who died during his forth attempt at the deadly race. Nyx's private life has long been a mystery with the driver being an elusive man to find whenever he's not practicing on the track with his crew or participating in a race. Coming from a modest, working class background, Nyx is generally a friendly, if a bit aloof, man on camera. With very few living relatives, Nyx is the sort of driver that remains a mystery to even his biggest fans!

Bike:
The Roaring Rampart, named for its unusually loud engine, is a custom built bike manufactured by Martian Heavy Industries. It is the only bike MHI has produced, and only due to the popularity and success of its driver, Nyx Mortar. The design philosophy behind the Roaring Rampart was to create a heavy, stable bike that would be near impossible to destroy. Prior to the bike's construction, its driver Nyx Mortar was already wearing the moniker of The Immortal, so Martian Heavy Industries sought to preserve that label by creating a bike that would be nigh indestructible.

Prior to the bike's construction, its driver Nyx Mortar was already wearing the moniker of The Immortal, so Martian Heavy Industries sought to preserve that label by creating a bike that would be nigh indestructible.
The result is a near two ton behemoth of heavy armor plating and an internal structure fit for a battlefield. Martian Heavy Industries is THE primary manufacturer for the Martian Federation, and so most of what went into the Roaring Rampart is technology battle tested and perfected during Mars' War for Independence. It has terrible acceleration, a middling top speed, and handling that is likely not as good as other bikes in its weight class, but Nyx Mortar seems to not care about the stats, because he's been driving the Rampart for several years with minimal modifications. He appears to wear the Rampart like a glove, and it shows in his race performance.
Nothing in the bike is top secret, as the Accelerated Racing Association required that all bikes be inspected for fairness and to prevent cheating or sabotage, but hardly any of its design is replicated by other bike manufacturers. This lack of theft is not because the Roaring Rampart isn't worth stealing from, it's because it'd be too expensive to replicate. Martian Heavy Industries is using state of the art techniques to manufacture the finest parts and materials that would be just as home in a tank as they would be in the Rampart. Even a three foot length of copper cabling wouldn't be worth stealing ideas from, as most manufacturers wouldn't see the point in paying quadruple the price for a single part when there are more affordable alternatives. The Roaring Rampart is estimated to have cost at least triple that of the most expensive bikes on the market today.
