Sonic Underground Species Headcanons

One of the more infamous parts of Sonic Underground was that it had what has to be the wildest assortment of Mobians yet, with many appearing more like alien mishmash creatures than the traditional anthromorph animals. Well, since I got nothing better to do, I might as well share how I choose to interpret these guys.

Anyway.

Sonic’s Foster Parents: A hyena and a deer. The spots on the foster father’s arms combined with the rounded and vaguely mohawk-ish hair draw my mind to hyena, and the face of Sonic’s foster mother reminds me of a deer. Fun fact, but I like to headcanon that Sonic’s foster father was once Aleena’s Captain of the Guard before retiring and giving the job to Argus.

Farrell: I tend to see ol’ Farrell as a cockroach. It’s the antenna and the general grubbiness that pushes it over for me, plus there aren’t a lot of arthropods in Sonic just in general so hey, more power to the bugs. That said he’s gotta be one of the weirdest designed guys even in Underground given that he has chicken feet and tentacles in addition to all the other ‘bug’ stuff.

Dingo: Dingo is another one who I tend to see as a Hyena, largely due to his hair, those blotches on his arm (that I’m not entirely sure are a fur pattern), and his nose. That said, I also like to toy with the idea that Dingo might actually be flat out a hybrid between a Hyena and something else given his ears... but yeah, I tend to see him as a Hyena. Kinda makes you wonder how his name works in a world where Dingos are people, don’t it?

Oracle of Delphius: Another one of the more notably weird looking creatures in Underground, I never really settled on what he could be other than seeing him as something with an extended snout- an Aardvark or a Tapir, something around those lines. Thanks to the Archie Crossover giving him grey skin, I sometimes even toy with envisioning him as an elephant purely on the basis of the cool factor. 

That’s about it for the biggies. There are of course the various incidentals and none-backstory relevant one shot guys, but why take up more space with this nonsense?

Sonic Underground: Guardians

Notes:

Aleena had tried to ensure all of her children were in deposited safely, but unfortunately, this did not happen as planned

Uncle Chuck

Chuck had heard of what his sister-in-law had been told by some crackpot oracle and tried to head off Aleena as she dropped off her children

However, he was only able to locate retrieve Sonic, and, due to the circumstances, believed his other nieces to be dead

Furious with both Aleena and himself, he went underground with Sonic

Chuck and Sonic were on their own for a few years, with Chuck helping the resistance where he could while helping Sonic figure out and work on his speed

Sonic (8) found an abandoned Tails (3) when he was exploring a woodlands area during one of their "Camping Trips" and brought him home

Chuck wasn't planning on adopting Tails (having planned on trying to locate the pups parents or at least drop him off at the Sanctuary), but ended up getting as attached to the kit as much as Sonic had

He was mostly winging it with them (apparently most people don't let their 4 year old disassemble and reassemble a tank engine to see how it works or check their 9 year old's running speed with a police speedometer)

He lost his leg during his last 1-1 encounter with Robotnik at the start of his takeover (a fair enough trade for the destroying the dictator's eyes and arm in his opinion)

Chuck was the initial reason Robotnik hated hedgehogs due to their shared history

Lady Elodie Windermere

Lady Windermere is a Bear (bc she's apparently not a bear but a dog in canon???)

Elodie had just lost her husband when Sonia showed up on her doorstep

Sonia was her sign to keep moving on, and she dedicated herself to Sonia's happiness and safety

Due to Robotnik's hatred of hedgehogs, she told everyone, including Sonia herself, that her ward was a Tenrac

going so far as to hire a tenrac maid in order to fake medical records for her protection

Sonia was made to cover her ears (the key visual difference between the two species as well) when going out in public and as she grew older, hide her back quills with custom reinforced corsets

As one of the highest aristocrats, she covered this by setting a new fashion trend of "earcaps" amongst the younger members of the court, allowing Sonia to blend in further

When Sonia's super strength revealed itself, Elodie worked with her daughter personally on her control, working with her in their gym as well as hiring self defense trainers for Sonia to have a good outlet

Went full Mama Bear mode on Sleet and Dingo when they DARED suggest arresting her daughter

Her arrest caused much scandal amongst the aristocrats, as she was the one most turned to when they needed a listening ear, and a resulting source of several dozen secrets NO ONE wanted to reach Robotnik's ears

Farrell

Farrell is a Cricket

former war veteran (medic)

he lost most of his upper right arm and was honorably discharged

despite his service, it wasn't long before he was living on the streets, where he spent the next 3 decades mastering the all the skills he'd need to survive and establishing a low-crime ring

Of all Farrell's students, Manic was his favorite, and made sure his kid had "nothin' but the best"

best as he could manage anyways

despite the attention it drew, he encouraged Manic's "jam sessions"

when Manic was younger, it wasn't uncommon for him to fall asleep to Farrell's chirping lullaby

their hideout was an abandoned weapon factory in the industrial district that the Swatbots "miraculously" kept missing

Manic learn a lot of his tech skills from playing with the old abandoned machinery

As soon as I hear music, something in me starts to vibrate.

Suzanne Farrell

It’s rare to find Bach music set to dance. When it does happen, it can be enchanting. Choreographer Heinz Spoerli set Bach’s Brandenburg Concerto n.3 to ballet. Entitled ‘Magnificat: If Today Were Tomorrow, and Yesterday Today’, the Ballett Zürich company offers a spectacle fill of grace and beauty.
