"The follow-ups. The ones of separate origin. The 4 Beginners. These are the Secondary Heroes."
Cloud, believe it or not, predates Kade by a couple years. Once I started investing time into
Kade's lore, I gradually forgot about Cloud and his friends. I've been trying to reintroduce
them the past few years to make up for it. If Kade parallels Sonic's heroism, Cloud parallels Mario's.
Thunder is the Luigi to Cloud's Mario, sharing the relationship Kade and Asriel have as long-term
friends. While neither had powers at first, modern Cloud has wind magic and Thunder has electric.
Trading wings for legs seems like a handicap, but he's ready to kick ass any day with Cloud by his side.
Jett is a Mega Man-inspired robot that uses his influence to its max. His arm cannon fires
energy blasts and cycles through different modes, but has no Robot Masters like his source.
He's willing to take charge on his own, but respects his teammates and joins their adventures.
Pumpers is kind of the kid of the group, despite all 4 being adults. He's the least
battle-driven and likes having fun more than fighting, but still has special magic
to use when the time calls. Usually he'll sit out and wait as backup.
