Agura Ibaden (voiced by Kathleen Barr) is a member of Battle Force 5 and formerly an African hunter. She is the only female member of the team.
History[]
From Africa, Agura is a strong huntress. After leaving her home to go to an off-road race she finds herself in a small town out in the desert. Meeting new friends, Agura becomes the huntress in the Battle Force 5.
Personality[]
Agura is a tomboy and one of the three 'mature' members of Battle Force 5. She likes a challenge, especially when it comes to off-roading. She also displays some leadership skills, as shown when she takes control of the team when Vert got trapped on the Vandal planet in Behind Enemy Lines. But do not call her weak or helpless, this is her biggest pet peeve.
Appearance[]
Agura is a young woman of African descent with black hair that is usually styled into dreads covered in beads and wrapped in a bun. She also has Brown eyes. She wears a green sweater with a red shirt underneath it, black green stream-lined pants, and black-red sneakers.
In her BF5 form, Agura wears a green shock suit with her Hunter Sentient symbol. When her Tangler is fused with another vehicle, her suit becomes white with green accents.
Vehicle[]
Her vehicle is the Tangler ATV (just called the Tangler), an All-Terrain Vehicle with limbs for grabbing things and climbing up rough terrain and vertical surfaces. It can fire grappling cables and has grinding blades upfront, it can also turn its wheels into claws for fighting or climbing and has small retractable blades in them.
The vehicle is used for the combination SmashClaw in which the Buster's armour is added to the Tangler's all-terrain capabilities.
Relationships[]
Even though Spinner has gotten on Agura's nerves early on, they have developed a good friendship over time.
Agura has shown that she can trust Vert and has helped him out of a few tight scrapes. The two can sometimes be seen together, and she usually helps him keep the others in line.
She and Stanford often argue due to his arrogance and disregard for others. Though following Cold as Ice, the two have gotten on better terms. Despite this, they still clash.
The two tend to pick petty fights due to clashing interests, but they love a good challenge, and Agura liked his teasing toward Stanford when in the Ice Zone.
Agura and Zoom share an older sister and younger brother-like relationship, which Agura is silent watcher of Zoom and Vert playing together. She really cares about Zoom as seen in Man Down.
Theme Color[]
The Tangler's color, Agura's suit, and some of her clothing have the color green.
Green can mean nature and the enviroment. Given Agura's roots, this can connect with her birthplace. It also means vigor, given her style of fighting and personality. Green and red are complimentary colors, so it is likely that she and Vert connect to each other.
Trivia[]
- As mentioned in The Blue Tide, Agura has five brothers, so Agura is more than capable of handling the Cortez brothers' antics.
- As mentioned in Gladiators, one of Agura's brothers has a three-year-old son, therefore making him Agura's nephew.
- Agura's original color was originally going to be yellow but was later changed to green as seen in concept art.
