Quantum Masks

The Quantum Masks are a group of masks that first appeared in Crash Bandicoot 4: It's About Time. Throughout the game, Crash and Coco can use their powers to avoid obstacles and cross specific areas. These powers range from manipulating gravity to slowing down time. Whenever Crash or Coco use their powers, their outfits change to match the corresponding Quantum Mask.

Lani-Loli
Lani-Loli is the mask of Phase and the tritagonist of Crash Bandicoot 4: It's About Time. With him, Crash and Coco can phase various objects, crates and obstacles in and out of existence. Objects that can be affected appear with ghostly blue wisps floating around them. Objects that are already phased out can be identified by an intangible blue replica in their place.

Lani-Loli displays a skittish and anxious personality, seeming to be in a constant state of panic throughout the game. He is almost always worrying about the other Quantum Masks and the fate of the multiverse, until both Dr. N. Tropies are defeated.

Lani-Loli is voiced by Richard Horvitz.

Akano
Akano is the mask of Dark Matter. Using his power, Crash and Coco can spin violently after a jump to hover in the air and glide from platform to another. This spin can also be used to break Locked Crates and knock back certain colored projectiles. The spin lasts until the power is turned off again. While spinning, Crash and Coco move automatically, making the player have very little control while moving.

Akano is a brooding mask who exudes an intimidating aura, one that initially frightens Crash and Coco. He is monosyllabic and says very little in general. He is also a lot of heavier than he appears, heavy enough to cause Crash to accidentally drop him on his own foot.

Akano is voiced by Fred Tatasciore.

Kupuna-Wa
Kupuna-Wa is the mask of Time. With her, Crash and Coco can slow down time, which makes it easier to jump across fast-moving platforms and avoid fast enemies.

Kupuna-Wa's nature is reminiscent of a grandmotherly figure and exhibits a very carefree attitude. Given her complete knowledge of all time, her omniscience has made her comfortable with talking about dangerous future events with no concern of the impact such knowledge might have. Kupuna-Wa is the first female mask to appear in the Crash Bandicoot series.

Kupuna-Wa is voiced by Cherise Boothe.

Ika-Ika
Ika-Ika is the mask of Gravity. Using his power, Crash and Coco can flip the direction of gravity as long as they're standing on the floor or under a ceiling.

Ika-Ika has a split personality, visibly demonstrated by opposing faces on his upper and lower halves; one side is refined and optimistic, while the other is gloomy and nihilistic. The two halves are aware of each other, and will often comment on what the other has said.

Ika-Ika has two voices: the optimistic side is voiced by Fred Tatasciore and the gloomy side is voiced by Zeno Robinson.

Trivia

 * The names of the Quantum Masks each refer to a Hawaiian term:
 * "Lani-Loli" derives from "lani", meaning "sky" or "royalty"; as well as "loli", meaning "change" or "transform".
 * "Akano" derives from "'akano", meaning "substance".
 * "Kupuna-Wa" derives from "kupunawahime", meaning "grandmother".
 * "Ika-Ika" derives from "ikaika", meaning "strength".
 * Kupuna-Wa can be seen in the PlayStation "It's Time To Play" commercial released months before the game's official reveal, though she is dark blue instead of gold.
 * The concept of elemental masks was previously used in Crash Bandicoot: The Wrath of Cortex, with the Elementals.
