Rapidly is a current member of the Savage Speeders. They are currently the most decorated athlete in Marble League history, winning 5 individual medals. They have competed along with their sibling Speedy in the Marble League.
Known for being a speed merchant, Rapidly is regarded as one of the best, and fastest competitors in the Marble League, as they also set the record for the fastest 10-meter Sprint in 2016.
Rapidly was well known for their partnership with their sibling Speedy in 2020, with coach Quickly playing the two on numerous occasions, including both Marbula One seasons and Marble League 2020. The partnership paid off, as the Savage Speeders won both Marbula One and the 2020 Marble League, with Speedy and Rapidly clinching a gold in the Black Hole Funnel event.
However, Rapidly suffered a drop in form during Marbula One Season 2, as they finished last in every Grand Prix they participated in, even suffering a DNQ at the sixth Grand Prix of the season. By the Season 2 Momotorway Grand Prix, Rapidly is one of only three racers who haven't scored a point yet, alongside Lemonlime and Hop. However, Rapidly's drop in form would end at the Misty Mountain Grand Prix, winning a bronze medal, which lifted the Savage Speeders to 4th at that moment. They would then clinch their first Marbula One gold at the Midnight Bay Grand Prix, catapulting themselves to 14th in the individual championship, while pulling the Savage Speeders to 2nd overall.
History[]
Pre-Marble League[]
Rapidly and their sibling Speedy come from the city of Accellaise.

After successfully qualifying, they then made headlines by finishing in fifth, a feat unheard of for a rookie team.
They continued to compete in the next three years, never finishing below the top five. In 2014, they won the Tour for the first time, and repeated that victory the next year. The public started to compare the team to the unstoppable force of early berserkers, describing them as "savage". The team liked it and decided to adopt that word for themselves, becoming the Savage Speeders.
