Sonic character profiles manual#

The game manual included with Sonic Adventure explains the nature of their rivalry 'If Sonic exemplifies the wind, Knuckles is the mountain, stern and unmovable.' Faced with the solitary task of forever guarding the Master Emerald on Angel Island, Knuckles appears to be jealous of the hedgehog's independent nature and freedom. Also, in almost all versions of the Sonic universe Knuckles has a tense relationship with Sonic. However, he is consistently used to represent the 'tough guy' or 'loner', and his abilities remain roughly the same. Knuckles' personality and character traits vary between various continuities. Skills: Digging, Wall climbing, Gliding, Superman Strength in upper body Weaknesses: Has a major temper and easily tricked He can also annoy others with his overuse of technical jargon, or techno babble, which often frustrates those around him, particularly Knuckles. Tails has a tendency to speak often - to the point where Sonic may start ignoring him, much to the young prodigy's annoyance. For a long time Tails seemed to be perfectly satisfied with just being a 'sidekick', but in Sonic Adventure he expresses a longing to become more independent. He is very intelligent and at times he has even outsmarted Eggman. Though he lacks confidence, he is always quite capable around Sonic and often helps him out. He looks up to Sonic as a hero whom he wants to emulate. Skills: Using his tails to fly, mechanics Weaknesses: Easily attached to things and let his guard down Despite this he has managed to overcome many water-based levels (such as the 'Labyrinth Zone', 'Aquatic Ruin Zone' and 'Hydrocity Zone' in Sonic 1, 2 and 3, respectively) throughout his adventures, going as far as braving temporary submersion. One example of another Sonic continuity establishing this is Sonic X during its first episode Sonic sinks in a pool and nearly drowns. It is known that Sonic dislikes and fears water because he cannot swim. Though he dislikes slow moving things and tears, the only thing Sonic truly hates is oppression. Sonic also enjoys breakdancing, as shown in several games. He displays an interest in rock music, and some official character art and a television commercial for Sonic Adventure suggests that he has a personal hobby as a DJ. He is extremely impatient and will often jump into situations without thinking, and his confidence is unshakable, even in the most dire circumstances, although he's outgoing and caring. He is noted for being free-spirited and adventurous, and cherishes his freedom to live as he wants above all else.

Sonic embodies the wind, as implied in multiple games, and is described as such. Skills: Running at supersonic speeds, chaos control, Super Transformation This page tells you a little bit abut the Sonic Characters
