Walrus Camera Man

The Walrus Camera Man is a character who appears in the Sonic Boom television series. He is an anthropomorphic walrus and a camera man employed by the television network on Seaside Island. He mostly works in the field as Soar the Eagle's camera operator.

Appearance
The Walrus Camera Man is a humanoid walrus slightly shorter than Soar with lavender fur and purple eyes. He has a large and round torso with stubby legs, thin arms, a medium-large head with no visible neck, and a wide muzzle with grey skin, short tusks and a black snout. For attire, he wears a black cap, white gloves, a tan vest with dark spots and several pockets, and black boots. He is also rarely seen without carrying a camera.

Season one
With the "trial of the century" between Sonic and Eggman there, the Walrus Camera Man got video coverage on Soar's interview of Sonic. Then, after covering Soar's report on the "Battle of the Buns," the Walrus Camera Man visited Chez Amy, only to flee when Eggman demolished the place.

The Walrus Camera Man would also record Soar's interview of Sonic's opinion on Dave the Intern's brief rise to villainy. When New Year's Eve then came, the Walrus Camera Man did coverage on the interviews of the local icons at the party in the Village Center. Amidst this, Dr. Eggman used his Slow Motion Machine to slow down time long enough for him to beat Sonic in something before New Year, though it happened too fast for the walrus to notice. Later, with Justin Beaver's rise to fame, the Walrus Camera Man provided coverage on the uprising pop star. The Walrus Camera Man and Soar also tried to get an interview of Knuckles the Echidna while he was a celebrity, but were rejected.

Season two
With movie star Tommy Thunder in town, the Walrus Camera Man was there whenever Soar did a news report on Tommy's activities, including Tommy's latest movie promotion and his supposed victory over Obliterator Bot.

Personality
Like what is expected of a TV recorder, the Walrus Camera Man is very dedicated to his profession, never showing any deviation from his work and focusing intently on the subject of interest.
