Imaginary Gift/Drive

Drive (アクセル Doraibu) is a Gift that can increase the number of Drive checks a Vanguard can perform. It is designed for clans that have effects specifically related to trigger checks. When a Drive gift marker is acquired, it is put under your Vanguard (just like a Force marker would be). If it is removed for any reason, it simply disappears. During your Vanguard's attack, you can remove the Drive marker to gain an extra drive.

Drive markers stack and you do not have to remove the Drive marker upon your first drive check. For example if you ride 3 consecutive units with Imaginary Gift: Drive, you will acquire 3 Drive Gifts under your Vanguard. Then when you attack, you can remove all three to have your Vanguard drive check five times. You do not have to remove all your Drive markers at once either - in the above example, you can remove just two to give the Vanguard an extra two Drive checks, and leave the third for later.

Clans with the Drive Gift typically have access to abilities that directly work off or benefit from checking cards (triggers or otherwise). An example is the Bladefang clan's Slash Drive, which lets you dig deeper into your deck when drive checking, or the Technomancer clan's Triggerburn, which lets you discard a checked trigger during your drive after resolving to gain additional effects.
