Nash

Appearance: Nash is a short, dark blue, shark-like alien. He has powder blue markings on his belly and muzzle and pure black eyes with sharp teeth. He wears a bronze helmet with a small laser cannon on top. The helmet is connected to goggles over his eyes which are filled with water, keeping him hydrated. He has a bronze ring around his nose with a cross-hair on top, presumably used for aiming his laser cannon. A dull red cylinder is below his nose, attached to bronze piping that leads around his back, providing him water to breathe. He has red armour plates on his arms with bronze spikes on them, a bronze belt around his hips with a round buckle on the front, and an orange speedo with a green and yellow pattern on it. In Nitro-Fueled, his design is changed slightly. His speedo is changed to board shorts, he's made more grey than blue and the water cylinder under his nose is attached to the cross-hair ring. His belt has been turned red, though the buckle remains bronze. Some of his skins in this game show him without his breathing apparatus. This may imply that he is able to breathe air, at least temporarily.

Personality: Nash is very bad tempered, impatient and high strung. He's cocky and so hyperactive that he does not even sleep naturally, it is said that he is always in motion, as if refusing to just stand still or stop moving to never sleep, as if afraid of dying for not being active for a long time. Sleep must be forced by external means, such as hacking his cybernetic brain. He tends to talk with a loud voice, much to other people's annoyance, especially when he is complaining and doing one of his typical tantrums.

Personality traits: Bad tempered, impatient, strung, cocky, hyperactive, stubborn, loud, immature.

Abilities: While racing, Nash uses shark teeth and joke teeth as weapons. He also uses the laser cannon to shoot at his enemies or at anyone just for fun.

Relationships: As an alien from the planet Barin, it is unkown if Nash knows about any people from his planet, but he has met a couple of people in the Galactic Circuit... For example, he knows about the Bandicoot Team (whose members are; Coco, Crash and Crunch) and Nash seems to not care much about them, he's just jealous of them for winning the race against him, asking desperately to them to get his key back, something similar happens with the Cortex Team (whose members are Dr. Neo Cortex, Dr. N.Gin and Tiny), Nash only seems to want to get his object back, since he hates losing. He also knows about Velo, the one and only guy who organized all these intergalactic races, and Nash is surprisingly scared of him, concernd about being abducted by him for losing that one race, but he will defend himself if necessary.

Plot/Story: Nash is a cybernetically enhanced shark creature who is the champion of Barin. In the beginning of the cutscene, Nash is seen boxing with himself saying "Put 'em up, put 'em up!" He becomes antsy and begins yelling at Velo to start the race immediately but backs down when Velo starts to lose his temper with him. At the end of Team Bandicoot's victory, he asks if he may have his key back, but gets denied. He gets angry but suddenly faints when Coco hacks his brain to put him to sleep. At the end of Team Cortex's victory, Doctor N. Gin talks to Cortex about having cybernetic sharks as slaves, but Cortex points out how easily they can be beat. Much like in Team Bandicoot's victory, Nash is a sore loser and demands his key back from the team. He is eventually scared off by Velo.
