01Basic information
02Appearance
Sasha Loggins is a young Southern European woman with a slim build. She is pale with well-arranged facial features and a slender neck. Joaquín Ruiz-Jorruda thinks that her features set her apart from the average woman, believing that she looks as if she was from a black and white drawing. Her bangs are strangely uneven, with the right side being cropped.↗↗
Sasha wears a baseball cap with the Speedwagon Foundation logo and an arm warmer on her right arm that goes up to her elbow, leaving her fingers exposed. A wide Ripple -conducting missanga with a total length of around 10 to 20 meters is wrapped around her glove.↗↗↗
03Personality
Sasha Loggins is a compassionate woman possessing a strong sense of duty and loyalty. She is committed to her missions and immediately thinks of informing Lisa Lisa about the situation upon being freed from Alhorn's prison. Whether it's deflecting incoming threats, chasing after endangered prisoners, or shielding a young captive with her own body, Sasha consistently places the safety of others above her own. For example, she pleads for Dos Santos to release the young captive, offering herself in his stead.↗↗↗↗↗
She is a keen observer and quick thinker, able to quickly deduce situations and adapt to them. She immediately understands Joaquín's situation upon seeing the Speedwagon Foundation logo on his uniform and understands his pantomimes. She also understands how La Casa Verde 's ability works after losing to it once.↗↗↗
Sasha does not tolerate recklessness or disrespect. When confronted with Octavio 's casual attitude and lack of urgency, she responds with a stern demeanor, emphasizing her professional status as a special agent. Her patience is further tested when Octavio's impulsive actions jeopardize their mission by endangering innocent hostages, leading Sasha to unleash a torrent of insults, showcasing her fiery temper and no-nonsense attitude.↗↗
04Abilities
Sasha Loggins is an adept tactician and very durable in battle. For over a decade, she is at the forefront of dangerous encounters against Stand users, accumulating fighting experience in using the Ripple and her Stand. She is able to take on an army of Stand users, protecting her allies while also maintaining the offensive.↗↗
Ripple
Sasha is a skilled Ripple warrior, inheriting the ability from her grandfather and trained in mastering it by Lisa Lisa. She is agile with a polished and controlled breathing technique. Her joints are flexible and she can easily repel counterattacks. After seeing her acrobatic techniques, Joaquín imagines that her movements are similar to how Lisa Lisa must have been like when she was younger.↗↗
Stand
During her rematch against Dos Santos, Sasha awakens to her new ability. Her power hatches various breeds of birds from her baseball cap. They initially start as chicks, but rapidly grow. Soon, she can summon a large flock of adult birds. The birds can travel 1–2 km away from Sasha's body, so she relies on them for scouting. When battling with them, she fights like a falconer. She commands her birds to fly up high and then plummet down, raining down on her enemies, invoking fear in anyone who can't fly.↗↗↗
05Story
SPOILERS
Background
Sasha Loggins was trained by Lisa Lisa to become a successor of the Ripple. The two have a very close relationship and she is the most trusted guard in the Speedwagon Foundation. She did not know her grandfather aside from seeing him in a photo. Along with her partner, Gustave Shaulo Messina, Lisa Lisa assigns them a mission to find Fernando Alhorn. After infiltrating Alhorn's fortress, she and Messina are caught by Dos Santos and fail to defeat his Stand.↗↗↗↗
Prison Escape
Joaquín manages to infiltrate the south building of Alhorn's citadel where Sasha and around 14 other prisoners are held hostage. Sasha quickly recognizes the Speedwagon Foundation logo on his uniform. Joaquín explains that he can't talk so the two communicate using a pen and paper, preventing anyone from eavesdropping. Sasha explains who she is and her history with Lisa Lisa. She lifts down her shirt to show Joaquín the scar the Arrow made on her chest.↗↗
Using her braided cord, Sasha's Ripple Overdrive incapacitates all of the guards in their way. Sasha urges the prisoners who who could walk to follow her, promising to return for the others. As they stealthily navigate the building, avoiding guards and checkpoints, Octavio interrupts their progress. He asks who Sasha is, who introduces herself as a special agent.↗↗
Battle Against Dos Santos
As soldiers approach, Sasha quickly assesses that they don't possess any evil spirits. She precisely strikes the guards down using her whip and Overdrives. However, their only exit is blocked by a wall of soldiers and Dos Santos. Dos Santos demands to see the power Sasha had gained from the Arrow, but she denies having any such ability. He summons his own ability, La Casa Verde, causing the surroundings to change dramatically.↗
Sasha and Lisa Lisa don't have a joyful reunion, as she immediately explains what happened to her. As Joaquín and Octavio head down to Lisa Lisa, Alhorn suddenly shoots them from afar using the Arrow, promising to meet them again in the future. Lisa Lisa, Hernández, and Sasha rush towards them, bringing them back to the Foundation's infirmary as they pass out.↗↗
The Search for Alhorn
In the late 1970s, Sasha and Hernández encounter Alhorn a second time by following him to a casino in São Paulo. However, they fail to capture him. One of his companions uses their Stand to cause many casualties while Alhorn flees the scene. Alhorn also manages to escape from their third encounter, which follows a similar pattern. Aside from Alhorn, Sasha and Hernández search extensively for Octavio and Joaquín's whereabouts, but they remain untraceable as well.↗↗
As Sasha looks around the mansion again, she notes that the damage does not look like simple neglect, but rather, it seems as if animals had rampaged inside. There are smashed walls, furniture, and chandeliers, so Sasha believes a fight took place. There are also no bullet holes, but it looks to Sasha as if a tornado had ripped through the house, so she wonders whether Alhorn used his mysterious ability. Sasha continues the search until a bird comes back to her, looking eager for praise.↗↗
Invading the Amazon
Sasha travels with Lisa Lisa, Hernández, and the Rueda Squad to the eternally night Amazon rainforest where the Selva Cartel is operating, believing the boss to be Alhorn. They had to manage their health and sleep carefully upon entering the jungle, with Lisa Lisa and Sasha maintaining proper breathing using the Ripple. Sasha calls back her birds from scouting and Lisa Lisa is glad that she can see the cute birds now.↗
Joaquín leads Lisa Lisa, Sasha, and Hernández into the commune, with their wrists and mouths bound and under heavy guard. Sasha wonders if they're being taken as human sacrifices. Although she could still summon her birds to free their restraints, she wouldn't be able to gain an advantage anyways. They are led to a chamber in the innermost room of a temple, where they meet the boss of the cartel. The boss is actually Octavio, not Alhorn like they expected.↗↗
It is unknown whether Sasha and Hernández successfully rescued Octavio and Joaquín, as their fates in the Speedwagon Foundation records are officially unrecorded. However, they acquire Octavio's Arrow and securely place it in a storage area known only to a few.↗↗
