Peppermint
“ | PEPPERMINT Highly talented in robotics, Peppermint is the mind behind 808, an adorable cat-drone that provides Chai support both in and out of battle. Peppermint herself is equally helpful, able to tag in to assist Chai with a volley of laser blasts to juggle enemies, overload barriers or even hit out-of-reach switches in the environment. |

Background
Peppermint is one of the main protagonists in Hi-Fi Rush. She is the first hero that Chai meets, being the creator of 808. Peppermint is an ultra-computer literate and expert mechanic, using her skills to infiltrate and discover the truth behind Vandelay's actions.
Following the second chapter, Peppermint joins Chai and can be summoned as an Assist, utilizing her guns from long ranges.
After Korsica ultimately joined the hero side, Peppermint reveals herself to her allies that she was the youngest child of the Vandelay family prior to their company being compromised by her brother Kale, revealing her full name to be Peppermint Vandelay.

---|
Sometime before the events of the game, Peppermint received an injury which caused her to get a robotic leg. The leg was given to her by her mother, Roxanne Vandelay, the CEO of their family's company. Unlike her older brother Kale, Peppermint was favored by her parents. While Peppermint begin to pursue her own path, instead of continuing her family, she somehow caught up with Kale's sudden rise as a CEO of their company, who uses a mysterious computer called SPECTRA, which made the former realize something is not right. She built 808 to keep an eye on the Kale-led Vandelay's activities. |
