Auriga

Auriga, or Auriga Erichthonius, is a main character in Nova.

Design
Auriga has dark skin with naturally black hair seen in his shaved sides, but has a hair poof, dyed pink. He has pointed ears and blue eyes, but one of his ears hosts his black intercom headset that he uses to talk as the pilot of the Starlight Cruiser. He wears the standard star league uniform: A skin-tight purple turtleneck, blue/purple pants, and dark magenta boots.

Personality
Auriga is a fun-loving thrillseeker who loves to use his imagination. He loves to have fun when flying the Cruiser, but when he's serious, he's serious.

His personality, being directly inspired by his voice actor, has no type, and as the other members of the cast say, "his personality really is only defined by him, he's strictly himself."

Backstory
Auriga was born an raised in the capitol city of Verulia with his parents. He had 3 goat kids as pets, and was responsible for caring for them, per his parents' request. When Andromeda was young, she found Auriga caring for his goats, and every day afterwards, started to meet with him, and they eventually became best friends. He was also one of the first Star League recruits, due to his knowledge of flying ships. (he took a course in middle school and aced the class.)

Trivia
Auriga loves dolphins, or as they are called on Verulia, delphinuses.

Auriga misses his goat kids more than anyone else on Verulia, and he often writes them little letters that his parents read them. The goats don't ever understand but they enjoy the affection.

Auriga's power level is 56%.

Auriga was based on the real constellation, Auriga, the charioteer. The charioteer part of Auriga's lore is what inspired Metta to make him a pilot
