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 shoes. He is also rarely seen without carrying a camera.

Season one
Working as Soar's camera man, the Walrus Camera Man helped record many of Soar's news reports, including the trial between Sonic and Eggman over Eggman's lawsuit (which ended in Eggman's defeat) and the Battle of the Buns. After covering the latter, the Walrus Camera Man visited Chez Amy, only to flee when Eggman began demolishing it.

The Walrus Camera Man later recorded Soar's interview of Sonic about Dave the Intern's non-threatening (and brief) rise to top villain. When New Year's Eve then came, the Walrus Camera Man provided coverage on 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. However, when trying to get an interview with the Unnamed Village's new celebrity, Knuckles, the Walrus Camera Man and Soar were rejected.

Personality
As 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.
