The Giant Walker[3] (モンスター[2],Monsutā?, lit. "Monster"), also known simply as the Walker,[1] is a character that appears in the Sonic the Hedgehog series. It is the ghost of an unidentified being that rests in an underground area underneath Cryptic Castle.[2]
The Giant Walker appears to be of mysterious origin, as neither Dr. Eggman nor Amy Rose seem to know what it is or why it is there. Eggman in particular was not even aware of the underground area where the Giant Walker resided.
The Giant Walker is a giant skeletal quadrupedal creature with blue flames surrounding its face. Because of the creature being a sentient skeleton only, it contains no sign of any apparent organ, nor does it need them. It has claws on its feet, a long spikey tail, spikes on its backbone and maxilla, a singular curved spike above its head, and horns on the sides of its head.
Overview[]
In Shadow the Hedgehog, the Giant Walker appears at the end of the Normal mission's path of Cryptic Castle in Shadow the Hedgehog. It is immune to damage and cannot be destroyed. It chases Shadow down a set of three Grind Rails. In order to escape from it, Shadow must perform Crouches or use the Dash Rings to stay ahead of the Giant Walker. The first Dash Ring is located on the left rail and the second is on the right rail. However, if the Giant Walker catches up to and touches Shadow, he falls off the rails and the player will lose a life.
Personality[]
Although not much is known about the Giant Walker, the creature itself seems to have territorial behaviour, as it pursued Shadow, who has entered its place.
Powers and abilities[]
Despite its size, the Giant Walker is quite fast, easily keeping up with Shadow's grinding speed. Due to its size, it also possesses incredible physical strength. It is able to cling its feet onto walls.
