Whisper the Wolf

Whisper the Wolf is a character that appears in the Sonic the Hedgehog comic series published by IDW Publishing. She is a heroic anthropomorphic wolf and an independent soldier who supports the Resistance and its allies. She is aided in her efforts by her own personal team of Wisps.

Appearance
Whisper is an anthropomorphic wolf with brown skin and biscotti and cloudy white fur. She wears light gray eyeshadow and has a long, bushy tail. She has long pointed ears and quite long hair that she keeps tied at the back with a black hair tie, save for a long, thick strand of hair that covers her right eye. For attire, Whisper wears a cream colored tube top and a dark gray cloak, in which she keeps six Wisp canisters. The cloak also has black and dark gray pockets seen on the shoulders.

She wears dark gray arm sleeves with black elbow pads and dark gray and light gray gloves with visible sharp fingers. Whisper wears light gray leggings, along with dark gray knee sleeves and black knee pads. She sports military-fashioned black, dark gray, and light gray boots. She can sometimes be seen wearing her cat-like mask scope, which is cream, dark gray and light gray in color. Three holes are seen at the right side of the mask and a blue "eye" on the left side.

Past
During the war against Dr. Eggman, Whisper gained a grudge against the evil doctor. She fought against his forces in secret, saving many Resistance soldiers, including Silver the Hedgehog (on a number of occasions), and turning the tide of several battles in the process. This earned her a reputation as the legendary "Guardian Angel". She never joined the Resistance however, preferring to work alone.

The Fate of Dr. Eggman
One month after the end of the war, Whisper decided to infiltrate one of Eggman's bases. There, she secretly helped Sonic the Hedgehog and Silver the Hedgehog get through the base's defenses. She soon after began trying to open a door that lead to the facility's computer room when she was found by Sonic and Silver. Not wanting to engage, Whisper hid from them. However, after her Wisps openly greeted Sonic (the savior of their planet), Whisper stopped hiding and formally introduced herself. Together, the three heroes broke into the computer room and fought against Eggman's Badnik horde. Whisper shot at E-107 Theta several times, only to get shot down. Fortunately, Silver and her Wisps protected her from the incoming Spinas and Sonic defeated Theta. With this, Whisper trusted Sonic and Silver a little more. After being helped up, Whisper angrily turned her attention to Eggman's main computer there. Sonic quickly stopped her from destroying the computer though, as he and Silver needed to find information from it.

Personality
Whisper is a soft-spoken individual. She speaks in a very low volume, and utters no more than one word at a time. Seemingly shy and bashful at times, she is very calm and likes to keep to herself. When fighting, she is very focused and determined, preferring to not let her emotions get the better of herself to complete her goals. However, she has shown hints of a greater temperament beneath her calm facade, namely when confronted with something associated with Dr. Eggman.

Though Whisper prefers to work alone, she can open up to others if they are nice to her. She is also shown to have close bond with the Wisps accompanying her.

A particular quirk about Whisper is that she keeps her eyes closed most of the time, only opening them when she gets very angry.

Powers and abilities
Whisper is a capable fighter. During the Eggman Empire-Resistance war, her skills on the battlefield were enough to turn the tide of any battle.

On her own, Whisper is very stealthy and has good agility. She is also very skilled in the usage of her Variable Wispon.

Equipment and weapons
Whisper's primary tool of choice is the Variable Wispon, a customized Wispon that can utilize the powers of more than just one Wisp, thus giving her more options during battle. Unlike other Wispons however, which were designed to clear out crowds of robots, the Variable Wispon is designed for precision shooting.

Whisper also wears a mask scope for supporting her marksmanship. With it, she can make pin-point shots with deadly accuracy.

For fueling her Variable Wispon, Whisper carries around six miniature Wisp canisters underneath her cape, which hold her Wisp allies. Whenever Whisper needs one of their powers, her Wisps will leave their capsules and enter her Variable Wispon. If one Wisp is already occupying the Variable Wispon, they know to switch places.

Whisper's Wisps
Whisper is accompanied by her own team of Wisps, namely a Blue, Cyan, Green, Orange and Pink Wisp, whom she uses to power her Variable Wispon. According to Silver, they make "quite a team".

Despite their role as fuel for Whisper's weapon, Whisper's Wisps treat Whisper as a friend and care much for her. In fact, they care so much for her that they were filling to defend her on their own when she was at the mercy of some Badniks. Whisper likewise seems to trust her Wisps, enough for her to come out of the shadows when they deemed Sonic the Hedgehog a worthy ally. She is also shown caressing them on a few occasions.

 * Whisper's mask scope looks similar to equippable costume pieces from Sonic Forces.
