Skater

“	There's no time for that. I've got exploring to do!	„
	~ Skater to Runner

Background

The Skater is a major character in the Run series, appearing in all 3 either as an unlockable or as a starting character. He likes to challenge himself, and will happily attempt to pass a level the hard way, just to improve his skills. He claims to have finished 49 "laps," presumably meaning he's finished each level 49 times. He is apparently still close to his family, but has never been gone for as long as in Run 3's plot.

Origin: Run

Gender: Male

Age: Unknown

Classification: Alien, Skater

Attack Potency: Human level (The Skater has no notable destructive feats)

Travel Speed: Massively FTL+ (Ran across the galaxy, can fish every level 49 times and sees it as sport, stated to be faster then the entire cast asides from Bunny, met everyone on the planet in a brief amount of time)

Combat Speed: Massively FTL+

Lifting Strength: Unknown

Striking Strength: Human Class

Durability: Unknown (Skater doesn't seem to get hurt by any means in the game. Even if he hits a box while running at full speed, he simply stops, and won't get hurt. Also, since he can respawn, even falling into space won't kill him, and will send him back at the starting point instead making it hard to gauge his durability)

Stamina: Very High (Can run across the galaxy without getting winded. Can keep running at a relatively high speed. Hasn't been spotted to feel tired in the game and is noted that he hates staying still)

Range: Standard Melee Range, Universal with Gravity Manipulation

Powers and Abilities: Superhuman Physical Characteristics, Acrobatics (Has a higher jump height then Runner), Self-Sustenance (Type 1. Can naturally talk and breathe in space), Gravity Manipulation (Capable of shifting the gravity while running), Resurrection & Teleportation (Respawning in the Run series is a canon element that teleports Runner right back to where they died), Telekinesis & Limited Flight (With Rings can telekinetically move objects around to different places and allows the user to stand on nothing without falling), Statistics Amplification & Rage Power (If he continuously fails a level, The Skater will push himself and skate faster), Resistance to Gravity Manipulation, Biological Manipulation, Cosmic Radiations & Extreme Colds (Can survive the vacuums of space for long periods of time, with it being noted they've been in space for nearly a year and characters like Lizard casually sleeping in space), Gravity Manipulation (Implied by Runner that they do not follow gravity), Pain (He is able to hit a box with his head and let it speed away in space, seen during the Bridge Building minigame. From the impact, it should be understood that he was also hit in the head by the Box. However, he doesn't seem to mind the effect)

Standard Equipment: Skates, Winter Hat, Rings

Intelligence: Unknown

Standard Tactics: Characters in run never really fight, though it’s likely safe to assume their method of attacking is running into the opponent while also manipulating gravity.

Weaknesses: None notable

Notable Attacks/Techniques:

Respawning: Every time he falls into holes and gaps, he can respawn in the level, granting him the ability to use the trial-and-error method to figure out how to beat the level and go over the obstacle in front of him.

Invincibility: He doesn't seem to get hurt by any means in the game. Even if he hits a box while running at full speed, he simply stops, and won't get hurt. Also, since he can respawn, even falling into space won't kill him, and will send him back at the starting point instead.

Pain suppression: He is able to hit a box with his head and let it speed away in space, seen during the Bridge Building minigame. From the impact, it should be understood that he was also hit in the head by the box. However, he doesn't seem to mind the effect.

Note: Despite the official Run wiki noting the characters speed stats around levels such as 23 m/s this is contradicted in-game where they can go far in their galaxy map in a short time frame along with characters like Skater having statements of meeting everyone on the Run planet and running across all the levels 49 times.
