==Plot==
Droners takes place in the world or [[ocean]] [[planet]] called TerrAqua – which is 95% covered by [[water]] with [[Island|islands]] (from [[Atoll|atolls]] to [[Archipelago|archipelagos]]) as the 5% land. Team Tiki – Corto, Mouse, Enki, and Oro – need to win the Whale Cup, the most intense [[Unmanned aerial vehicle|drone]] [[Drone racing|racing]] competition of all time. They'll compete against other [[Adolescence|teenage]] teams from all over TerrAqua, with most flying their G.E.N.I.E.-powered drones through dangerous territory and avoiding even more dangerous creatures. But failure isn't an option for Team Tiki: the fate of their home island, Nuï, relies on their victory!

==Characters==
===Main===
====Team Tiki====
* Corto Heilani is the 13-year-old female main character and Tikis' pilot.
* Mouse Ruto is the 10-year-old mechanix for the Tikis. She is also the daughter of the Shorescrubber Ruto Clan leader, Big Moe, and she has an older brother, Vago.
* Enki is the 13-year-old enginerd for the Tikis.
* Oro is the G.E.N.I.E. for the Tikis and powers their drone Maroro.

===Recurring===
====WhaleCorp====
* Wyatt Whale is the owner and founder of WhaleCorp.
* Neptune is the G.E.N.I.E. for Wyatt Whale.

====Team Pirate====
* Shark is a Shorescrubber and the pilot for the Pirates.
* Max is a Shorescrubber and the enginerd for the Pirates.
* Ed is a Shorescrubber and the mechanix for the Pirates.
* Patch is the G.E.N.I.E. for the Pirates and powers their drone Claw.

====Team Starfish====
* Deejay is the pilot for the Starfishes.
* Debbie is the mechanix/enginerd for the Starfishes.
* Shiny is the G.E.N.I.E. for the Starfishes and powers their drone Aquablaster.

====The Tao Twins====
* Sun is the pilot for the Tao Twins who develops a crush on Corto.
* Monk is the mechanix/enginerd for the Tao Twins.
* Lotus is the G.E.N.I.E. for the Tao Twins and powers their drone Wushu.

====Team Bee====
* Flora is the pilot for the Bees.
* Fuzz is the enginerd for the Bees.
* Buzz is the mechanix for the Bees.
* Jelly is the G.E.N.I.E. for the Bees and powers their drone Bumblebee, which is a repurposed beeekeeking drone.

====Team Siren====
* Mina is the pilot for the Sirens.
* Victoria is the enginerd for the Sirens.
* Laurel is the mechanix for the Sirens.
* Nemo is the G.E.N.I.E. for the Sirens and powers their drone Nautilus.

====Teach Tech====
* Gavinda Teach is the owner and founder of Teach Tech, a tech manufacturing company that creates drones which are powered by nucleum, an element that is toxic to the environment.

====The Cold Kings====
* Manta is the pilot for the Cold Kings as Polaris Academy's representative.
* Shino is the enginerd/mechanix for the Cold Kings.
* Pavel is Manta's previous superior at Polaris Academy.

====Team Mirage====
* Hannah is the pilot for the Mirages and is the younger sister of Adam.
* Adam is the mechanix/enginerd for the Mirages and is Hannah's older brother.

====Tortuga====
* Scarlett "the Rust Queen" is the strict but fair leader of the Zealots, a Shorescrubber clan that made their home in and around the colossal Aquae Turtle Titan, Bedawang. She was previously a pilot and actually still participates in underground races under the false identity of the Aquae Knight. She was involved with Wyatt Whale when she was younger, but their relationship soured after he refused to help her by making war drones. This is why she refuses to give him the Aqua crystals he needs for the Polar Shield. However, she does accept the Tikis volunteering to win them in the Rotor Punch and Wyatt taking the role of commentator for the races. She warms up to him as time passes and the droners actually take note that they are happier when they prepare some sort of surprise for the racing teams, like the labyrinth. She eventually warms up to Corto in private, though it does not stop her from punishing her when she gets into trouble. She is also not above using her status to get what she wants, such as when she orders a race to be centred on taking a picture of a mysterious creature not many thought real or when she decides the teams were to find an old relic so she could add it to her treasure, ignoring the fact one of the team considered it a national treasure to their home. She can fight with the relic she always yields.
* Basuki is an Aquae who is loyal to Scarlet. He was sent to stop Antaboga and struck an alliance with Scarlet. He is needed for Scarlet to keep control of two of the three control centers of the Turtle Titan, the throne room and the treasure vault. If Antaboga took control of either one, he would be able to use it against the Terraes by taking control of the automatic drones of Tortuga.

====Team Zealot====
* Ifa is the pilot of the Zealot, Saatchi's younger brother and the Rust Queen's grandson. He flies the drone Squeele. He wants to make his grandmother proud and sometimes thinks he is failing at it which leads him to make life-threatening choices. While he already disliked Corto, as she frequently teased him for his size, her talents being recognized by his grandmother just made him jealous and even more competitive whenever she was involved. As the chosen pilot of the Zealot clan in the Rotor Punch, Ifa is trusted with investigations and is well-loved by the inhabitants.
* Saatchi is the enginerd of the Zealots. She is Ifa's older sister and Scarlett's granddaughter. She is more stoic than her brother and usually tries to reason or calm him down. She is protective of her younger brother.
* Baba is the mechanix of the Zealot. He is very old and only speaks in an old Shorescrubber language dialect which sounds like gibberish to most. He once lost his drone saving Scarlet.

====Team Falcon====
* Hannah returns in season 2 as the pilot of the Falcons with her own G.E.N.I.E., Kami, which was given to her by Wyatt Whale when she returned to the Sun Empire after season 1. She works for the Sun Empress. She is now on friendly terms with Corto but they still tend to be very competitive with each other, most to their respective teams' annoyance.
* Hilal is the enginerd of the Falcons. He tries to reason with Hannah but mostly puts pressure on her.
* Lila is the mechanix of the Falcons. She is among the youngest participants of the Rotor Punch. She strikes up a friendship with Mouse.
* Kami is the very young G.E.N.I.E of the Falcons who powers their drone Horus. Kami appeared in season 1 after Adam and Hannah stole him from WhaleCorp, but he escaped when one of the Tikis' attempts to make modifications to their drone caused a power surge in the hive. But his playfulness eventually led to him bonding with Hannah, and later Oro, with the latter even acting like somewhat of an older brother to him during the Rotor Punch. However, Kami's playfulness can lead to him getting distracted during races.

====Team Plankton====
* Lemanja is the pilot of the Planktons. She is actually an Aquae in a Terrasuit, an android body that can mimic the appearance of a Terrae. Her team lost their ship and their leader around Tortuga years ago. With their ship locked in the Rust Queen's treasure vault, the Planktons cannot go back home to the Aquae cities in the deep sea. Lemanja is creative, talkative and can think outside the box.
* Scylla is the mechanix/enginerd of the Planktons. He is actually an Aquae in a Terrasuit, an android body that can mimic the appearance of a Terrae. His team lost their ship and their leader around Tortuga years ago. With their ship locked in the Rust Queen's treasure vault, the Planktons cannot go back home to the Aquae cities in the deep sea.
* Luska is the G.E.N.I.E. of the Planktons who powers their drone Platypulse. He is actually an Aquae posing as a G.E.N.I.E., much like Oro, Neptune and Basuki, Terras don't question wether a G.E.N.I.E. is an Aqua or not since the latter is supposed to have gone extinct hundred years ago. His team lost their ship and their leader around Tortuga years ago. With their ship locked in the Rust Queen's treasure vault, the Planktons cannot go back home to the Aquae cities in the deep sea. Luska is calm and nonchalant.
