Megumi

"I've been waiting for this!"

- Megumi

Megumi is a female bandicoot responsible for handing out prizes to Doctor Neo Cortex and Doctor N. Gin in Crash Team Racing and returns as a playable character in Crash Team Racing Nitro-Fueled, speaking with a Japanese accent in the latter. The epilogue of the game states that she unveiled a new line of perfume called "Eau De 'Coot", featuring the alluring scent of fermenting wumpa fruit.

Megumi is named after Megumi Hosoya who was the product manager and marketing manager for Sony Computer Entertainment Japan for the first three Crash games. According to the old Naughty Dog website: "Megumi Hosoya, marketing genius, created the Crash Dance for Crash 1's TV ads in Japan. The success of that campaign influenced Naughty Dog to incorporate the dance into Crash 2 and Warped." The other trophy girls are also named after people involved in the Naughty Dog games.

Physical Appearance
Megumi has sky blue hair and tail, along with orange eyes. Her attire resembles that of a doctor's, comprising of a sleeveless white lab coat, white pants and black sneakers, thus being somewhat of a female version of the Lab Assistants' outfits. She is often seen carrying a large white and sky blue striped umbrella. Megumi has the least altered appearance in CTR Nitro-Fueled, the only changes being her fur is lighter, her sneakers are now dark gray and her right ear has a piercing.

Personality
Although little of her character is explored, Megumi's most visible trait is her unrestrained sense of excitement, which clashes with her otherwise courteous personality. Out of all the Nitro Squad members, Megumi is the least aggressive, and seems soley focused on enjoying herself rather than claiming victory.
