Pasadena O'Possum



Pasadena O'Possum is an expert, champion winning racer and a good friend of Ebenezer Von Clutch. She is a mutated possum, but it is unknown how she came to be. She makes her only appearance on Crash Tag Team Racing and Crash Racing, and is a playable character (she, Coco Bandicoot and Nina Cortex are the only females to be playable on CTTR. In Crash Racing she and Nina Cortex are the only playable females, while CTR, one made in the late 90s, only has Coco as a playable female). Pasadena is a girl, right down to her habits and speech. However, Crash shows no interest towards her and rejects her affections, although this may be because of his oblivious nature to his surroundings. Pasadena is also friend of Coco, Crunch, Crash and Aku Aku.

One of Pasadena's distinctive characteristics is her long tail, which she uses as ether a third hand or a small helicopter blade, enabling her to hover.

Trivia

 * Pasadena's unlockable costume looks very much like Rikku's diving outfit from Final Fantasy X. Also, it is apparent that Pasadena is based on Rikku, right down to her personality and clothing.
 * Pasadena likes killing drones, referring to them as hogs after she runs them over, and at the start of the race, may say "This will be a hog-killing good time!"
 * She is not very intelligent, as, in one of her speaking lines, she says "2 + 2 = Uh... Cornbread?".
