Sonic the Hedgehog (SatAM)

Sonic the Hedgehog (born 3219) is the titular protagonist of the Sonic the Hedgehog television series. He is an anthropomorphic hedgehog endowed with super speed and the leader of the Knothole Freedom Fighters, and the arch-enemy of Dr. Robotnik.

Past
Sonic was born in 3219, and was raised by his uncle, Sir Charles Hedgehog, whom he affectionally called "Uncle Chuck". During his childhood, he made friends with Sally, the princess of Mobotropolis, spending most of her time with her. In 3224 however, Dr. Robotnik made a coup and seized power over Mobotropolis, transforming the city into Robotropolis. While most of the population got turned into Worker Bots by Dr. Robotnik's Roboticizer, Sonic and several other children managed to escape to Knothole Village with the aid of Rosie. In time, Sonic and the other children would come together to form the Knothole Freedom Fighters, a group of Freedom Fighters determined to end Robotnik's dictatorship and restore peace to Mobius.

At the age of ten, Sonic was already doing his first solo missions, although without permission. As the years passed, Robotnik's reign remained unbroke, but Sonic managed to make himself the foremost enemy of Robotnik, whom he would keep opposing well into his teenage years.

Season one
While out in the Great Forest with Rotor, Sonic would practice playing the guitar to impress Sally. While there, he also saved Tails when he came under attack by a Buzz-Bomber. When a Surveillance Orb later came over to check on Sonic, Sonic told Robotnik, who was watching through the Surveillance Orb, that his days were numbered. Then, along with Rotor and Tails, he returned to Knothole Village, where Sally was preparing catapults. However, she needed additional parts, so Sonic went to Robotropolis to get the parts Sally needed, picking up Tails along the way. Within Robotropolis, Sonic and Tails managed to escape from a Swat-Bot patrol and get the parts they needed, only for them to stumbled upon Muttski: Sonic's robotized dog. Confronting Muttski in an effort to get him back, Sonic managed to assume control over Muttski, but only for a moment. Once Muttski began to attack him again, Sonic had no choice but to run away with Tails. When Swat-Bots then began chasing him, Sonic retreated into air duct leading past Robotnik's war room. There, Sonic overheard Robotnik's plan to disclose the location of Knothole Village by destroying the Great Forest with chemicals that his Buzz-Bombers would deploy. Due to a mishap committed by Tails however, Sonic and Tails slipped into Robotnik's war room and were captured. Fortunately, Sonic managed to escape with Tails, and when they got cornered by Robotnik and his forces, Sonic used the power of a Power Ring to escape with Tails and return to Knothole. There, Sonic warned everyone about the Robotnik's attack. Fortunately, Sally had prepared the catapults, which were ready to be loaded with water balloons for short-circuiting the Buzz-Bombers. Once the Buzz-Bombers arrived, Sonic helped launch the Freedom Fighters' attack on the Buzz Bombers. He also managed to destroy Robotnik's Hedgehog Missile, which had designed by Robotnik in case Sonic interfered. After the Buzz-Bombers were forced into retreat and the threat of the chemicals they carried were neutralized, Sonic and Sally returned to Knothole together.

Some time after, Sonic, Antoine and Cat met with Sally in one of the hangars in Robotropolis. There, while trying to sabotage Robotnik's Stealthbots, Sonic helped Sally get a message from her father. When Antoine later accidently revealed their intrusion, Sonic got the Swat-Bots' attention, giving his friends the chance to escape. During the evacuation, however, Cat got captured and Sonic decided to get him back. Meanwhile, Sally and Antoine went to the Dark Swamp to find the source of the message from the King. Sonic eventually managed to break into facility holding Cat. There, however, Cat warned him that Dr. Robotnik was tracking Sally. In order to save Sally, Sonic had no choice to leave Cat and go find Sally. However, he promised Cat that he would come back for him. While Sonic ran through the Dark Swamp however, a Stealthbot managed to track him down. Sonic, however, managed to lure the Stealthbot into a trap with a tree trunk that destroyed it. By then following Sally and Antoine's trails, Sonic arrived at Ironlock Prison, where he caught up with his friends. Inside the prison, Sonic helped Sally get her father's message from an old computer, only for a trapdoor to open beneath them a moment later. The heroes subsequently landed in the sewers where a monster attacked them. Sonic, however, managed to defeat the monster thanks to the power of a Power Ring, and it turned out that the monster was just a robot. Following then the map of the sewers that Sally got from the message from her father, Sonic, Sally and Antoine found their way back to the Stealthbot hangar, where they managed to reprogram the robots. Sonic then then left to get Cat, but found his cell empty when he arrived. With Cat gone, Sonic withdrew from Robotropolis, and when Robotnik sent his Stealthbots after them, they were destroyed. Sonic then pulled out a Surveillance Orb and told Robotnik that his Stealthbots' destruction was payback for Cat.

Sonic, Sally and Bunnie later carried out an attack on a Swat-Bot factory in Robotropolis. Sonic's assignment was to plan explosives around the factory, which he performed swimmingly until the Robotnik's robots came after him. However, he eventually managed to escape using the power of a Power Ring. After returning to Knothole however, Sonic realized that Sally had gone missing. After waiting impatiently for the next Power Ring to emerge from the Lake of Rings, Sonic ran to the rescue. Returning to Robotropolis, Sonic managed to get Sally out of prison and bring her back to Knothole. However, Sonic later learned that the Swat-Bot factory was still operational, meaning that they had to try and destroy it again. When they prepared to take off the next day however, Tails warned Sonic that Sally might be a robot. Sonic, however, did not believe him. Later, Sonic, Rotor, Bunnie and Sally snuck into Robotropolis, and despite their initial successes, they soon found themselves harassed by constant patrols, as if Robotnik knew their every move. Soon after, Sonic discovered that the Sally that was with them was actually a Sallybot, a robot agent for Robotnik disguised as Sally. After Sallybot ran away, Sonic ran in pursuit of her, only to get immobilized by a puddle of Mega Muck. Fortunately, Sonic's friends came to save him, and Bunnie released him from the Mega Muck. Sonic then followed Sallybot and managed to overheat her circuits, shutting her down. The heroes then interrogated the robot and found out that the real Sally was to be roboticized soon. After Rotor reprogrammed Sallybot, Sonic snuck into Robotnik's headquarters and freed Sally, while having Sallybot take her place in the Roboticizer. Afterward, Sonic and his friends, who managed to destroy the Swat-Bot factory in Sonic's absence, returned to Knothole, where Sonic received a kiss from Sally.

Soon after, Sonic and Sally attempted to sabotage the Roboticizer, but Snively detected them when they were rummaging through the air ducts. Making their escape, Sonic and Sally left to meet up with Rotor, Antoine and Bunnie. While escaping from their pursuers, Sonic and Sally withdrew to an underground train station with a train that took its passengers to the Crystal Mine. There, Sonic saw his roboticized Uncle Chuck board the train. Wanting to save Chuck, Sonic headed for the Crystal Mine with his friends after meeting up with them. At the entrance to the Crystal Mine, Sonic approached Chuck, who began to attack him. Regardless, Sonic managed to take him to the rest of his friends with Bunnie's aid. Using then a Power Ring, the heroes managed to return Chuck to his senses. Upon regaining his mind however, Chuck took the heroes into the Crystal Mine and showed them a massive Energy Crystal, which Robotnik's forces were intended to extract. If that much Energy Crystal was removed, then Mobius' ecosystem would be destroyed. Taking action, Sonic, Bunnie, and Chuck took control of a Dinobot, which they planned to use to destroy the ropes pulling the Energy Crystal out of the mine, while Sally and the others handled the control room. Although the Swat-Bots tried to stop Sonic's team, the heroes eventually destroyed the ropes, which made the crystal fall back into the mine and get shattered. Having accomplished their mission, Sonic and his friends planned to get out of the Crystal Mine by train. However, along the way, the Power Ring used to restore Chuck's mind wore off, causing Chuck to turn back into an aggressive robot. Although Sonic did not want to leave him, his friends forced him to do so in order to escape Robotnik's forces. On the train ride however, Sonic promised that he would come back for his uncle.

The Knothole Freedom Fighters (not including Sonic) later built the Freedom Stormer, an airplane which they intended to cross the Great Mountains in and reach the ruins of Maga in order to retrieve the Secret Scrolls. Sonic, however, decided to run there on his own. Upon arriving there, he helped the Freedom Stormer land. Sonic and his friends soon after discovered that there were many mysteries among the ruins of Maga. Upon encountering a hedge in particular, Sonic used his Super Spin to dig through the hedge, which ensured that the rest of his team could get through. After clearing many more different traps and obstacles, Sonic and co. eventually found and obtained the Secret Scrolls. Soon after, however, Robotnik and Snively arrived with several Swat-Bots in order to take away the scrolls. Taking in upon himself to distract Robotnik and his lackeys where his friends got away, Sonic engaged his foes before starting to run away. When he later rejoined friends, Sonic revealed to them that he was being followed by a Surveillance Orb. In order to help Sonic, the heroes suggested that he used the Breath of Mobius, an ancient and powerful wind tunnel mentioned in the Secret Scrolls that lay somewhere in the ruins. Sonic thus ran to this tunnel and took refuge inside it in-between the gusts of wind it blew out. When Robotnik and his forces then arrived at the wind tunnel, the Breath of Mobius released a gust of wind that blew them off a cliff. Sonic, however, managed to stay in the tunnel thanks to the power of a Power Ring. Afterward, Sonic joined his friends on the way back home in the Freedom Stormer.

When Nicole began to malfunction, Sonic helped Sally get some spare parts in Robotropolis. Afterward, Sonic learned about the existence of the Forbidden Zone, where the wizard Lazaar rested. After hearing that Lazaar had a computer filled with spells that could come in handy, Sonic decided to go to the Forbidden Zone and get that computer despite Sally's warnings. Eventually, Sonic found Lazaar's fortress in the Forbidden Zone, but there were various traps and obstacles waiting for him inside it, including Lazaar's Guardian. Sonic, however, managed to avoid all the threats, but when he reached Lazaar's resting place, the wizard suspected him of stealing his computer, which was already gone. Lazaar then imprisoned Sonic in a bubble. After learning that Robotnik had the computer though, Sonic convinced Lazaaar to le him go so that he could get his computer back. However, as an insurance that Sonic would keep his word, Lazaar took Sonic's speed away. Despite having lost his greatest strength, Sonic managed to sneak into Robotnik's headquarters. After arriving there however, hr was attacked by Sally and Bunnie, whom Robotnik had hypnotized with Lazaar's computer. Regardless, Sonic managed to break free and recover the computer. He then used his smarts to free Sally and Bunnie from Robotnik's spell, and together with his friends, he fled from Robotnik's headquarters. Returning to the Forbidden Zone, Sonic gave Lazaar his computer back and regained his speed. Sonic then offered Lazaar to join the Freedom Fighters, but Lazaar insisted on staying and keeping watch over his computer in ordr to ensure no one evil would come out of it. Sonic thus bid Lazaar goodbye, who vanished shortly afterwards, before returning to Knothole with his friends.

Sonic, Sally and Bunnie later attacked the Robotropolis power generator. While they managed to destroy it, Robotnik revealed that he had a backup generator. Sonic later participated in a race organized by Dr. Robotnik in order to distract Robotnik while his friends destroyed his backup generator. During the race, Sonic encountered various traps designed for him, including a very fast robot cheetah. Regardless, Sonic managed to avoid being fried by a laser grind and being pulled into a pool by a mechanical arm. He also survived falling from great heights when the robot cheetah threw him into the sky. Near the end of the race, Sonic was about to overtake the robot cheetah, but then he noticed a signal that indicated that Antoine was in trouble at the backup generator. Not willing to risk his friends' lives, Sonic abandoned the race and came to his friends' aid at the backup generator, which Sonic managed to short-circuit by inserting a Power Ring into its gears. Sonic, Antoine, Sally and Bunnie then escaped safely from Robotropolis. Although Sonic did not win the race, he took solace in knowing that Robotnik had lost his spare generator.

Personality
Sonic is a cool teenager with a big attitude. He possesses a lot of self-confidence and has a playful, yet never mean-spirited arrogance about him, which lets him have fun even in the face of danger and crack jokes while staring evil in the eye.

Sonic is very impatient when it comes to waiting and will actively seek out action, which makes him ignore manners and social customs and act before thinking. Because of his attitude, Sonic also sometimes come across as egotistical, but he is never selfish in his actions. Despite his flaws, Sonic is a good-natured person with a big heart and a strong sense of justice, and is fully devoted both to his friends and the Freedom Fighter cause.

While not the smartest of the Knothole Freedom Fighters, Sonic is clever and sometimes deduces things that other people do not, and he is skilled at coming up with plans to deal with Robotnik's robots, foiling his schemes or busting his friends out of a situation. He also trains Tails to be a Freedom Fighter in the second series.

Powers and abilities
Sonic's greatest strength is his running speed, with the ability to run at least at supersonic speed.

Sonic's main maneuver is curling into a spiky ball, which is a variant on the tendency for hedgehogs to roll into tight balls for protection, thereby turning himself into a buzzsaw that can cut through nearly anything. He is also able to harness the forces of the Power Rings, which charges up his strength and super speed to such levels that he creates an explosion upon dashing off.
