Willy Walrus

"Breaking and entering is my specialty."

- Willy Walrus, "Dude, Where's My Eggman?"

Willy Walrus is a character that appears in the Sonic Boom television series. He is an anthropomorphic walrus and a dangerous, yet small-minded criminal roaming Bygone Island. He is also a prominent member of the Lightning Bolt Society.

Appearance
Willy is a humanoid walrus who is a little less than a head smaller than Dr. Eggman. He has pale lavender fur and is stockily built with broad shoulders, thick arms, somewhat short and thick legs and a slightly round gut. He also has a large pale peach muzzle with a black snout, purple eyes and two noticeably large and vertical tusks. For attire, he wears white gloves and light brown boots. His silhouette bears a striking resemblance to Dr. Eggman's.

History
During his life, Willy Walrus would be mistaken for the infamous Dr. Eggman all the time. He would eventually join the Lightning Bolt Society where he would rummage through Eggman's trash in search of noteworthy objects.

On a trip through the market place, Willy bumped into Eggman and struck a pleasant conversation with him. When he heard Eggman was going to break into the local helium warehouse, Willy offered his services. Shortly after they got in however, the police arrived and Willy was arrested just after they split up. After a day and a half in jail, Willy's cell was broken open by Orbot and Cubot who mistook him for Eggman. As the police arrived, Willy escaped with Orbot and Cubot, and thanked them for the assist before telling them about Eggman.

When Willy and the other members of the Lightning Bolts caught news that Tails destroyed an orchard, they believed him to be evil and sought to recruit him. Once they got him to join them in their clubhouse after helping reseed the orchard, Willy made Tails their new leader in their criminal endeavors. As Tails revealed he was not evil, Sonic, Amy and Eggman broke into the club, where Willy was commanded by Eggman to attack Sonic. However, his attempted utterly failed and the heroes got away.

Personality
Willy Walrus is a loud, stoic and dangerous fellow and is said to have an evil laugh, but he is not very competent as a villain and is considered a dolt. He generally treats others well and is a honeydripper and can easily keep up civilized conversations.

Willy revels in destruction and seemingly enjoys committing crime simply for the sake of it since he joined Eggman's break-in on a whim. Likewise, he likes talking about his skills as a burglar and enjoys a good jailbreak.

Powers and abilities
According to himself, Willy is a skilled burglar whose specialty lies in breaking and entering. However, he has admitted himself that he is not so good at exiting, such as breaking out of jails.
