Sonic the Hedgehog is a fictional character that appears in the upcoming Sonic Boom TV series and the main protagonist of the series.

Appearance
Retaining most of his appearance from his main series video game counterpart, Sonic has blue fur all around his body, with minor exceptions such as his chest and muzzle. He sports a brown scarf and has straps of linen on his hands, part of his arms, and around his feet. Unlike his previous incarnations, his arms are also covered in blue fur. He has some cowlick-like spikes out of his quills and his shoes are kept locked by straps on linen lined on his legs. Sonic also appears to be much slimmer than his video game counterpart, making him tall and lanky.

History
While chasing Dr. Eggman into a canyon, Sonic arrived at a mine where Dr. Eggman brought forth Burn Bot to destroy him. After Sonic gave his two cents on the robot's "false advertisement" of the name, he chased after Burn Bot. As the two of them were about to clash in the bottom of the canyon, Tails appeared in his plane, where Sonic grabbed onto Tails' energy rope and used it to knock Burn Bot away. When Burn Bot then made Tails crash in his plane, Sonic got Burn Bot trapped under some boulders as he ran to Tails' aid.

Personality
Sonic is noted for having a passion for adventure. He is full of self-confidence and is cocky, quick-witted, and takes challenges and his opponents light-hearted. He also has a lot of attitude, showing a lot of sarcasm, sassiness and has a narcissistic tongue. However, when the situation calls for it or his friends are in trouble, Sonic can be serious and will instantly try to come to their aid.

Powers and Abilities
Sonic's most notable skill is his ability to move at super speed, allowing him to run at speeds greater than Mark 1. Though his top speed is unknown, he can move fast enough to create a sonic boom.

In line with his speed, Sonic has significant acrobatic skills and agility, sufficient enough to perform perfect synchronized mid-air movements. He also have astonishing reflexes, being able to react instantly to dangers. He also has enhanced jumping skills, allowing him to jump very high into the air.

Sonic Boom (game)

The game serves as a prequel to the TV series, which tells about Sonic and his friends Tails, Amy and Knuckles coming to a mysterious island to battle an ancient evil. Sonic is one of the four playable characters in the game, the others being Tails, Amy and Knuckles. In the game, Sonic enters high-speed running sections and can moves such as the Homing Attack.
