Backstory (WIP): The Blakes have a family legacy: when a Blake turns fifteen, they must make the journey down to SlugTerra so they can protect the secret population of Terra-Dwellers in the hidden Hundredth Cavern. A Blake's signature slug is a Hypnogrif, which is passed down from generation to generation.
Gear was a Surfacer and only twelve when her twin brother Zane went missing. It was only three years later, when she herself made The Drop into SlugTerra at fifteen, that she would find out her brother had beaten her to the punch. Zane, ever optimistic for change and unsatisfied with his life at the Surface, snuck to The Drop before the allocated age-limit and realised he was in over his head when he found nothing but more responsibility. Zane climbed the ranks with Rammstones, Grenukes and Tormatos, presenting great promise and potential at being a master Slugslinger. A year after he made The Drop, Zane enters and wins the Winnowing, becoming Master Shanai's student. 
Two more years after that, Gear made The Drop herself, armed with the Sparkwing SF Pro and Trancer left to her by Eden. Gear met the Shane Gang in a bar Slug-out, which she stopped with Trancer. The Gang knew they wanted someone with Gear's smarts and skill on their team.
After about a year slugging it out with the Shane Gang, Gear receives a message from Zane telling her to meet him at the Lava Lake near the Hundredth Cavern. The two reunite and Zane gives her the Air Elemental as a sort of peace-offering and apology for going ghost. The two make up, happy to have each other back.
Gear returns with the Shane Gang and the Air Elemental, who she names Leaf, back to the base; and Zane resumes his job as Defender of the Hundredth Cavern.
