=== Shakur's Career Story ===
Shakur developed a computer program, "[[wikipedia:Parcae|Parcae]]", which can predict the results of any race. These results reflect the racing records of our reality. Of special importance is '7cm', the distance by which the real Shakur lost the Nippon Derby.
 
Her training story revolves around Parcae's predicted fate and overcoming '7cm'. Leading up to the Nippon Derby, the calculated '7cm' shrinks thanks to Shakur's training and the player's assistance. During this time, the value 991031021222 (representing Shakur's first and last races on 1999/10/31 and 2002/12/22) mysteriously appears in Parcae's results, to her frustration. Regardless of whether or not Shakur wins the Derby in training, the results will differ from the predicted 7cm, rendering Parcae's calculations uncertain and altering Shakur's relationship with fate. Notably, Agnes Flight, the horse that defeated Air Shakur in reality, does not exist in game. The results of other G1 races during training also affect Parcae and Shakur's outlook.
 
Within Shakur's training events, her internal monologue is shown through [[wikibooks:C++_Programming/Code/Style_Conventions/Comments|C-style comments]]. Some of her training events are titled after her namesake Tupac Shakur's songs.
 
=== Other Umamusumes' Career Stories ===
Shakur plays a major role in [[Fine Motion|Fine Motion's]] career story. She inspires Fine to join the Twinkle Series in Fine's introductory episodes, and appears frequently as a rival, an observer, and a reluctant supporter. Throughout the story, Shakur develops a emotional dependency on Fine Motion's running, seeing her data as a 'bug' necessary to overcome fate. This brings her into conflict with Fine's inevitable retirement. The player can choose to make Fine's final training objective the Arima Kinen to see the resolution to their relationship.
 
Shakur frequently appears in her roommate [[Meisho Doto]]'s career story, offering more pessimistic second opinions to Doto and her trainer. Doto and her Trainer watch Shakur run in the Derby, which plays out just as Parcae predicted. After the race, Shakur explains her struggle with fatalism to Doto, and, knowing how chaotic Doto can be, tells her it's her turn.
 
=== Story Events ===
In the story event [[Tonight at the Ligne Droite]], Shakur's identity as !monad is discovered, and she DJs at the Ligne Droite. She provides assistance to [[Fuji Kiseki]] and [[Seiun Sky]] regarding their dance performance. Shakur is the support card earned from completing the event story.
 
Shakur reluctantly plays the part of a demon in a play written by [[Tanino Gimlet]] in the story event [[A Patchwork's Farewell]]. After the play, she speaks to Fine Motion alone. Shakur's "Belphegor's Prime" version, featuring the outfit she wears as a demon, was released together with the event.
 
=== Main Story ===
Shakur plays a minor role in the second Main Story, acting as a mentor figure to [[Air Messiah]].

Biography

"I'm Air Shakur. In any case, data speaks louder than victory or defeat. I don't have a problem with simulation, I'll screw you over, logistically."

Let's be logical! An eccentric genius girl.

An anarchic data advocate. Her mind and personality are sharp, and she desires absolute victory based on logic, rather than one won off-the-cuff. No matter how many times she's calculated it, she comes up seven centimeters short of winning the Triple Crown. She continues to search for a glimmer of chance, both in her confidence of her calculations, and desperation.

Weaknesses Cicadas
Ears They stand upright during logical thinking.

My Rule "Turn off all SNS notifications"

Appearance

Shakur has short black hair with a line that runs through the center. Her hair can be described as "spiky" or "tousled" (messy) it is uneven and includes several strands that jut out in different directions. Her hairstyle also features two longer strands at the back extending downwards, this (when looking from the front) can give the illusion that she has traditional long hair.

Her eyes are a golden yellow and she has subtle piercings above her left eyebrow. Her right ear is adorned with a gold/bronze piece that is connected by chain to an ear cuff directly above.

Shakur's race outfit is a mesh of many random different article of clothing and designs. She sports a short sleeved black jacket that has blue accents, blue linings, yellow studs and an asymmetrical zipper design on the left side. Underneath the jacket is a torn yellow shirt with paint splatter print. She wears a black belt with gold decals. Her shorts have 2 separate zippers on the right side which is connected by a red and white ribbon/strap (Fine motion? :3) and she has an attached blue cloth on the other side. Her right leg features red straps above ripped black leggings with blue flames. She's wearing the unreleased Air Shakur 1's (not available on the free market).
