The shard
Where Pearl comes from
The last shard found, and the only one still being surprised by the Descent. Pearl arrived after the others had already learned what each section does to them, and is currently going down the track without that knowledge.
How Pearl races
Pearl is quick at things Pearl has never seen. The first funnel, the first sieve, the first plinko field — each met with a complete absence of caution, and genuinely fast because of it. And each one is only ever met once. Every section type Pearl learns is a section type Pearl is no longer fast at.
The first encounter with any section type, taken flat out. There is no second encounter like it.
The voice
Hear Pearl
“ooh? hi-iii?”
The polite debutante. Every phrase ends on an up-turn, like a question. Pick a mood and Pearl says it that way.
In the race mix: A6, 1760 Hz. Two notes that do not resolve, the first time Pearl meets a section. The second time, they do — the sound settles down over a season.
Rivalry
Two Kinds of Not Knowing
One has never learned. One is learning, and it is costing her.
Lime attacks everything with no idea which sections reward it, and will still be doing exactly that in season four. Pearl is fast precisely because she has not met a section before — and every one she meets, she is a little slower at forever. The same inexperience, and only one of them gets to keep it.
Pearl wins this in the early rounds and loses it, permanently, by about round fifteen.
