Giving Sonic characters an anime fighter-style makeover + dream roster for said anime fighter

So not too long ago, probably a year-ish, I wanted for a Sonic fighting game with Arc System Works graphics and gameplay (basically Guilty Gear Strive but for Sonic characters) and I was like "oh, imagine if it took place in an AU which is basically just my own take on post-SGW Archie but with characters from EVERY continuity and they all wear outfits that make them more urban or smth" I didn't have a lot of ideas for this AU but basically one of them was to make Sonic wear something like a bomber jacket that's more reminiscent of plane pilots (considering the fact that he was the original owner of the Tornado). I should have the drawing somewhere in my room, I'd just have to find it. I then kinda took a step back when I saw this:

(if someone is able to find who made the image above please send me the link to credit them, I know it's a Twitter image but I forgot the account)

This is a scrapped alt for Project M (for those of you living under a rock, the ORIGINAL Smash Bros. Brawl mod that made Brawl more like Melee and added Mewtwo and Roy back in the game) with Sonic wearing an outfit which is VERY CLOSE to that of his "humanized" version drawn by Uekawa. And after seeing this I'm like "y'know, he could wear this in Kingdom Hearts AND Guilty Gear and not bat an eye" (despite the fact that Guilty Gear designs have a shitload of belts).

I'd say a design like this could fit the vibe/aesthetic I'd be going for in a project that's essentially a Sonic fighting game in an AU which is made up of elements from all continuities. I know I also kept searching for a Shadow "equivalent" to this and I am so, SO torn between making essentially something similiar to the outfit above (so essentially either one of Shadow's outfits from Rivals) OR ramp up the edginess and make him wear something on the lines of this:

Horrible 90's Attire but it's Sonic Adventure 2 by Yanimae on DeviantArt (https://www.deviantart.com/yanimae/art/Horrible-90-s-Attire-But-it-s-Sonic-Adventure-2-705847763)

The cast would generally all have a clothes revamp and I'm gonna go over some of the most obvious ones:

-Tails should absolutely wear something that screams "I'm the smart prodigy" and I'm thinking he should get the bomber jacket I was gonna give to Sonic before seeing the PM scrapped alt -Treasure Hunter Knuckles like this is so obvious it's not even funny he fits perfectly with the tone, that's one of the top tier things Sonic Forces: Speed Battle did so far -same for Secret Agent Rouge (or alternatively her stealth outfit from Rivals 2 and Sonic X) and DJ Vector these are actually banger alts

-Amy wearing something on the lines of her Fleetway Comics outfit but with the colors of her more known outfit would rock ngl

-Eggman wearing an outfit similar to the one he wears in the first movie (so something like this https://twitter.com/RendersSSBU/status/1252674435342938113 ) -Metal Sonic having a new coat of paint that makes him more loyal to the Eggman Empire (essentially Chrome Metal from Speed Simulator) -Espio in his Ninja attire from Rivals 2 -Silver wearing some kind of Tron-esque time cop coat showcasing more that he's from the future or smth

-Blaze essentially wearing a more "regal" version of her regular outfit -Cream & Cheese dressed up like girl scout cookie sellers (its cute and it fits their personality) -ANGLER BIG ANGLER BIG ANGLER BIG ANGLER BI- -Omega possibly also receiving a coat of paint that shows he works for G.U.N with the rest of Team Dark

-Scrapnik Mecha Sonic and Scrapnik Mecha Knuckles enough said

-Surge cosplaying as Scourge. Hear me out on this one it makes SENSE-

This was more or less the roster I came up with for the fighting game itself

Mighty, Sage, Mecha Sonic by ShadowLifeman on DeviantArt Ray by Prime-01 on DeviantArt Nack, Bark, Mephiles, Infinite, Honey, Mecha Knuckles, Fleetway SS by ??? Classic Sonic by Kidd Kai on DeviantArt Bean by E-122 Psi on DeviantArt Zavok by Solbliminal on Twitter

Everyone else is from official SEGA art or from artists who worked with SEGA, template used from the DBFZ roster

Here's also a few details on each character and on some of the thought process behind this roster and/or gameplay:

-I considered a three button system a-la BlazBlue with an equivalent for a Drive that I haven't really developed in my brain, plus a Ring mechanic like Sonic Smackdown, where if you get hit with a strong attack you lose Rings and if you get said Rings you can heal back some of your health -The starting roster would mostly be Teams Sonic, Rose, Dark, Chaotix, Silver, Blaze, Gemerl, Eggman, Sage and Metal Sonic, with the final boss possibly being Mecha Sonic, the rest would be split among a few seasons of DLC -The only real characters I forced myself to include were Mimic and Rough & Tumble because I was running out of space to make a symmetric heroes-and-villains roster (and I originally considered for Surge & Kit to be a 2-in-1 deal like some of the Chaotix that would "mimic" a playstyle meant to evoke playing as both Sonic and Tails in Sonic 2) -Sonic himself would have a mix of moves between Frontiers and Smash Bros., but 90% of his Smash moveset would basically be used for Classic Sonic in general since he's 90% ball anyways there

-Everyone would have a movelist as big as that of the average Strive character (which makes sense when you look at how many unique techniques each character actually has from the wiki pages lol)

-Charmy and Ray are "built-in" assists like Android 17 for base DBFZ but I couldn't come up with full movesets for them sadly

-Super transformations are extremely hard installs to pull off (full meter stuff + super specific button inputs too) that make you utterly broken for a short amount of time at the cost of all your current red health (these include Super Sonic (both classic and modern), Super Shadow, Super Silver, Burning Blaze, Neo Metal Sonic and Super Mecha Sonic, possibly even Excalibur Sonic with the regular BK Sonic being instead used for the base form)

-I originally planned for Jet to call for Wave and Storm in battle but then I realized you could more or less flesh them out to be a bit more unique compared to him.

-Zavok is Ginyu from DBFZ, if you know you know

-Mephiles and Infinite LOOK LIKE they have the same "kit" but Mephiles' playstyle and game could and should definitely fit a shadow manipulator like him while Infinite is more of a guy who attacks aggressively at any distance

-Honey and the Hooligans would be essentially "translated" versions of their movesets from Fighting Vipers and Sonic the Fighters into an anime fighter environiment

-Emerl and Eggman Nega are alternate costumes for Gemerl and Eggman respectively (I did not use actual Emerl as the base because Gemerl has a cooler design and he does show up in comics these days) -I considered Lanolin to form a full Diamond Cutters team with Tangle and Whisper but I realized she hasn't done much so far action-wise to include her, so both her and Belle (for the same reason) could be assists for Whisper and Tangle respectively

-I ALSO considered Marine to be playable but she hasn't shown any actual powers beyond that one thing in the end of Sonic Rush Adventure which nobody ever really understood what it was- I recall Ian Flynn saying in the Encyclospeedia that it's water powers? eh, nobody really trusts that book anyways

-I'd find cute if other characters showed up in taunts and animations for the playables (like Chip for the Werehog, Vanilla for Cream, Froggy for Big, Tikal for Chaos, etc.) -Fleetway Super Sonic would essentially be the game's Omega Rugal (the extremely hard DLC boss you have to beat to unlock for playable use). Also he's voiced by Jacaris because I cannot picture any other voice for him at this point now sorry

-Instead of making Mecha Sonic and Mecha Knuckles full blown villains I'd make them anti-villains/anti-heroes where in the game's plot they don't immediately side with the heroes because they just wanna live in peace on Scrapnik Island

-Didn't add Archie characters because of space but if I DID do it, I would've done Sally (and made her another Ginyu with the rest of the Freedom Fighters) and/or Eclipse the Darkling

-Other scrapped characters from even earlier takes on the idea are Tekno from the Fleetway comics, Shade from Chronicles (deleted because of a horrible human being) and Longclaw from the movies

-Plot would happen in an original universe, again, but heavily focused on games and IDW, and essentially be dealt with like how Guilty Gear Xrd handled it (with multiple iterations of the same game progressing the plot): in the first "Phase", the one with only the base roster, Eggman is attempting to mess around with Ancient technology and data from the Starfall Islands to replicate the Phantom Ruby's powers, somehow "resurrecting" and/or "summoning" in the second "Phase" past villains, which causes the heroes (and, begrudgingly, Eggman, Sage and Metal) to call in for reinforcements/allies, and to search for the Chaos Emeralds so that they could stop the villainous rampage, with everyone mostly deciding to gang up on Mephiles, Infinite and the Deadly Six as they pose the bigger threats when combined together. A third and final "phase" would focus on the aftermath of the event (but more so specifically on Starline and his Imposters because I want them to get better in the public eye, I know a lot of people don't like IDW but I love the idea of Sonic having a more detailed Rogues Gallery in official SEGA-endorsed media)

Oh and that edgy Fist Bump remix from the Sonic Sessions is absolutely the intro theme to this game i'm not sorry.

That is all, thank you for coming to my rambling and stay hydrated. Just don't drink Dasani, it'd be like drinking poison (if you know you know)

Whats your au all about?

The 5 magic words everybody

It's essentially a Sonic and Sally roleswap except I boot Sonic out entirely and it's set in the gameverse. Also the core freedom fighters plus a few archie characters are there.

I have a few doodle pages of it with the tag #what if it was sally? au. For WIIWS? I tried to stick as close to the game canon as possible with only minimal changes with Sally in the picture, but this does change some of the characterizations of other cast members, including Sally herself since Sonic is non-existant.

This is a very self indulgent au that stemmed from me thinking how Sally (+ freedom fighters) will likely never have the limelight in the games or idw because of how much of a main protagonist Sally is, along with how Sonic and Tails are core members of the team. So I took Sonic out of the equation and started from scratch. I am trying to not make Sally a Blaze rip off, so I'm going more off of her post-sgw character to set her apart.

#thx for the ask!#navii inbox #I have spent many hours thinking about how to revamp most of the major games with the au- not so much with idw though #what if it was sally? au #wiiws? au

Blaze the Cat #01

By Charty/Fuse/Eggy(Different names for one person)

Important notes: NB means 'Narration Box', and TB means 'Thought Bubble'

PAGE ONE AND TWO - TWO PAGE SPREAD A two page spread shot of a very large city, looking similar to Pre-SGW's New Mobotropolis, only, slightly more advanced looking, with a slight bit of spanish architecture style.

NB Note: Solus, Capital City

1. Blaze(NB): I have to admit, its been a while since I've been back here.

2. Blaze(NB): Between the various searches for the Sol Emeralds, and having to deal with the doctors, just haven't really had the time.

3. Blaze(NB): Though, after the battle with Cap'n Metal, I seem to have more than enough time to come back recently.

4. Blaze(NB): Something that hasn't really been lost on the seer...

PAGE THREE - THREE PANELS

PANEL ONE A head and bust shot of a somewhat tired looking Blaze, walking along the sidewalk, with a few background characters around her.

1. Blaze(NB): Lahlee...

2. Blaze(NB): Never really talked to her much. Didn't really used to be all that social, to be honest.

PANEL TWO A zoom in on Blaze's face, which starts taking on a concerned expression

1. Blaze(NB): But, then again, I'd like to think I'm better than that now.

2. Blaze(NB): And, from what it sounds, she might have had it a bit hard herself...

PANEL THREE A side shot of Blaze walking along the sidewalk, with multiple background characters around her.

1. Blaze(NB): After all, the life of seer has never sounded all that pleasant to me.

2. Blaze(NB): All the legends and stories make it sound like a grueling task overall.

PAGE FOUR - TWO PANELS

PANEL ONE A shot of Blaze standing infront of a rather nice, pleasant looking, cottage like small house, with her back turned toward us.

1. Blaze(NB): Then again...

PANEL TWO A close up of Blaze's face, eyelids slightly lowered, with an expression that suggests she regrets her concern.

1. Blaze(NB): I suppose with me as her princess, she's had it a bit easier than others.

PAGE FIVE - THREE PANELS

PANEL ONE A shot of Blaze knocking on the door 1. Blaze: Lahlee, are you in there? I hope I've come at a good time.

PANEL TWO Same shot, but, now Blaze is waiting infront of the door looking slightly impatient. 1. Lahlee(From inside): Come in! Tea's almost done!

PANEL THREE Same shot, now with Blaze opening the door and heading in, looking less than thrilled. 1. Blaze: Oh, joy. Tea...

PAGE SIX - ONE PANEL SPREAD PANEL ONE A page spread shot of the inside of the house, with a tarot reader's table in the middle, a small reading room to be a left, and, a partial shot of a kitchen to the right, only showing the back of an egyptian blue(The color) cloak from behind in terms of what we can see of Lahlee. Both Blaze's expression and body language convey surprise as she looks around.

1. Blaze: Woah! This- This is your new home...? 2. Lahlee: Well, its not as new as you'd think! 3. Lahlee: I actually moved in here about a couple of months ago. 4. Lahlee: I'm still having to get used to it a bit, but, its honestly pretty nice so far!

PAGE SEVEN - FIVE PANELS

PANEL ONE Blaze is looking to her left, body turned slightly, with an expression of curiosity, and slight wonder on her face.

1. Blaze: It is very nice. I think I would hope to have a place just as nice in the near future. 2. Lahlee: Ha! Well, I do wish I could see as you do-

PANEL TWO Same shot, but, now Lahlee's in it, still obscured, and, we can only see her blue cloak, and, her holding a simple white tea kettle. Blaze looks at her with a slight bit of curiosity, but, mostly confusion. 1. Lahlee: But, enough about me! Why don't we go ahead and sit down, and have some tea?

PANEL THREE Lahlee sits down in a plain wooden chair at the far end of the table, and, her head isn't visible, but, now we can see her arms, and, an echidna dread/quill, and, she seems to have a pink lavender coat, with somewhat darker flame-shaped markings on her dreads/quills.

PANEL FOUR Blaze sits down at the chair at the end closer to the door, her head also not really visible, or, at the very least, only slightly visible from the bottom.

PANEL FIVE A wide shot of the table, with Blaze closer to the viewer, but, we can now see that Lahlee seems to be an echidna girl, about a couple of years older than Blaze, with a white face wrap covering her eyes, and, she seems to be wearing a plain egyptian blue robe from inside of the cloak. She has a smile on her face, and is pouring some tea into a cup, while Blaze has a somewhat unenthused look on her face. 1. Lahlee: Now, tell me, how is this 'Marine' I've heard about doing? 2. Blaze: Eh, she's fine. She's a bit trying at times, but, I know she means well. She's still learning.

PAGE EIGHT - Four Panels(All wide shots)

PANEL ONE Lahlee's pouring a second cup of tea, looking a bit amused. Although, you can kind of tell, its the kind of expression that might look slightly smug for someone we could actually see the eyes of. Blaze looks a bit embarrassed, though. 1. Lahlee: I see! Well, if we're being honest, I think we both know what that's like~ 2. Blaze: H-heh, I'm not quite sure what you mean...

PANEL TWO You can't see her eyes, but, you can tell Lahlee's giving Blaze a bit of a knowing smile. Blaze is drinking her tea, mouth obscured by the cup, and, she's clearly trying to avoid looking in Lahlee's direction. 1. Lahlee: Well, I don't know about you, but, I remember a bit of a princess who was constantly asocial, and, didn't think she needed to get close to anyone. 2. Blaze: I-I'm not sure I follow.

PANEL THREE Blaze makes a disgusted face, looking at her tea cup, and, Lahlee just sort of has a neutral expression. 1. Blaze: Ugh! Is your tea always this bitter? 2. Lahlee: Funny, I knew you would say that...

PANEL FOUR Lahlee has a *very* knowing smirk on her face, and, Blaze is sweating a bit, making the kind of embarrassed grin face someone like Tracy Yardley might draw. 1. Lahlee: Which is why I specifically used a blueberry blend from Plant Kingdom, instead of my usual one. 2. Lahlee: You've just had it ingrained as a habit by now to consider my tea bitter, haven't you? 3. Blaze: I, uh- Well, uh-

PAGE NINE - THREE PANELS

PANEL ONE Lahlee covers her mouth, while Blaze is just sort of watching, looking slightly bemused. 1. Lahlee: Heh! Oh, don't mind me, I'm sorry, I'm just having a little bit of a giggle at your expense! 2. Lahlee: I really shouldn't be. Its just a part of you I haven't really gotten to see much of in the past...

PANEL TWO Lahlee's expression isn't visible, we're once again just seeing her from behind. Blaze's expression is a bit bemused.

1. Lahlee: Now, before we get started, why don't you tell me some of whats happened to you? 2. Lahlee: We've barely talked before now, and, I really would like to know about what's been going on with you in recent times. 3. Lahlee: That is, if you wouldn't mind?

PANEL THREE Blaze sighs, looking down, eyelids half shut in contemplation.

1. Blaze: Well...I guess a lot has changed, honestly. I used to be a lot more energetic when I was younger, but, I think I was also a bit spoiled too, since that was before I knew what I would have to do. 2. Blaze: When my parents disappeared, and, your father started training me to become guardian, I know I started shutting myself off from others. I knew the kind of responsibilities that ultimately fell on me. I thought I could handle them all alone... 3. Blaze: Even when Dr. Eggman came, and took all of the Sol Emeralds, I didn't think I needed anyone. 4. Blaze: ...But, then, after going to Mobius-Sonic's World-I started to meet all sorts of new people. I- I began to open up a bit more, ask others for help. Cream, Sonic and the others really started to open my eyes. 5. Blaze: Even when I invited Sonic here, I still had a lot more to learn. Not just from Sonic and Tails, but, even Marine too. She has her flaws, but, so do I. 6. Blaze: And...During the Wisp incident, I met another new person. I didn't think I had ever met him before, but, he still seemed familiar somehow. And...He was nice. Naive, but, nice. 7. Blaze: I don't think I'll ever stop learning how to be a better person and friend, but, I don't think anyone ever does.

PAGE TEN - THREE PANELS

PANEL ONE We can see Lahlee from behind, sipping tea, and, Blaze on the other side, just watching curiously.

1. Lahlee: Well, I'm not really surprised. I knew you'd find people who could find your softer spots inside one of these days. 2. Lahlee: It was always going to be a matter of when.

PANEL TWO A shot, now its Blaze we're right behind, and, we can see Lahlee facing in her general direction, with a wry smile on her face, while Blaze is blushing slightly, and looking down at the table to avoid looking in Lahlee's direction again.

1. Lahlee: Honestly, I'm mostly curious about this hedgehog girl with a hammer. 2. Lahlee: I understand you two work pretty well together? 3. Blaze: W-well, Amy is...Very motivated when it comes to helping her friends. 4. Blaze: I should honestly consider myself glad that I number among them.

PANEL THREE Lahlee has an expression of genuine curiosity on her face, while Blaze is looking upwards in contemplation.

1. Lahlee: Is there anyone from Sonic's World you'd like to get to know more? 2. Blaze: Hmmmmm...Well, I've only seen the princess of Acorn in passing, and, I've heard about a few of his other Freedom Fighter friends. Honestly, I think I'd like to meet all of them eventually, if possible.

PAGE ELEVEN - FOUR PANELS

PANEL ONE Lahlee looks both impressed, and pleased as punch, as she starts pulling out a Solian style tarot deck, with the top of all the cards having ornate purple patterns, with flame markings in the certain, and around the decorated parts of the cards.

1. Lahlee: Well, that is definitely an admirable and respectable goal! I'm glad you're wanting to make more friends these days! Now, I guess we should go ahead and start this, considering its supposed to be the main reason you're here.

PANEL TWO An overhead view, Lahlee goes ahead and places a card down ontop of the table.

1. Lahlee: Now, I don't know what everyone's told you, but, this is a perfectly valid of making a prediction. My father, and all his ancestors before him had various different ways of doing this, and, I have my own way. 2. Blaze: Well...I don't think I would judge, really. Amy has a bit of an interest in tarot cards herself. 3. Lahlee: Oh? Well, it sounds like she's very openminded to things that can't always be explained.

PANEL THREE Lahlee places her gloved hand ontop of the card.

1. Lahlee: Now, let us see what the first one is.

PANEL FOUR Both of them are *looking* at the card, making it debateable of whether Lahlee 100% blind or not.

1. Lahlee: Is that- I-is that what I think it is? 2. Blaze: Yep...

PAGE TWELVE - THREE PANELS

PANEL ONE A close up shot of what seems to be a massive bunch of vines, covering a tower shaped structure, with the words 'The Tower' on the bottom.

1. Blaze: I've been around Amy enough to know a tower card when I see it.

PANEL TWO Lahlee looks to her right, which is on Blaze's and our left, with a look that indicates that she is trying to wrap her head around this.

1. Lahlee: I- I don't know how this could have happened

PANEL THREE Lahlee grabs two more cards, placing them both to one side of the Tower card. Her hand is obscuring them though.

1. Lahlee: But, I know two more drawings should clear this up.

PAGE THIRTEEN - ONE PANEL SPREAD

PANEL ONE Lahlee's standing to the left wondering what could have happened, while Blaze is looking on with suspicion, seeming to already have an idea as to what this could mean. To the right of the Tower Card, the Emperor, represented by a tall feline mobian in Golden Armor, with a giant ornate golden gear right behind him, and, the Sun, with all seven Sol Emeralds around it in the picture.

1. Lahlee: I- I'm the one who drew this, but, I don't even know what it means? How could a Tower, Emperor and Sun be in the same drawing...? 2. Blaze: Well...I think I might have a bit of an idea

PAGE FOURTEEN - FOUR PANELS

PANEL ONE Lahlee looks at Blaze in confusion, who seems to be pondering on something.

1. Lahlee: I- Wait, what...? 2. Blaze: I- My mother used to tell me about legends of the past. Fables and stories about those who supposedly used to live in our universe...

PANEL TWO Blaze looks at the viewer, while in the background, we can see a shining sun, and three obscured shadowy feline figures standing infront of it. The tallest one looking forward, and, the two others facing toward the sides.

1. Blaze: Once upon a time, there lived a Great King, blessed with great knowledge and strength, and power over the sun itself. 2. Blaze: And, as the young king's reign continued, and he grew older and married, he had two children

PANEL THREE A bust shot of a male jaguar, facing directly to the left, wearing a small golden crown, and aztec/mayan style jewelry over his chest, grinning arrogantly.

1. Blaze: The first was his older son. 2. Blaze: He was blessed with the vibrant passion and fire of the sun, and, was considered both handsome and beautiful by many of his subjects and lovers.

PANEL FOUR A bust shot of a female caracal, looking directly to the right, with a red forehead jewel looking similar to Blaze's, and a fancy aztec/mayan style outfit, with her eyes partially closed, and a subdued yet warm smile on her face.

1. Blaze: The second was his younger daughter. 2. Blaze: She was blessed with the majestic, life giving sol energies of the sun, that were reflected in the gems of that era. She was considered not only very beautiful, but, very kind and wise as well. 3. Blaze: Both of them had the same powers from the sun of their father, just used in different ways.

PAGE FIFTEEN - FIVE PANELS

PANEL ONE A shot of the two together, but, younger, playing with each other in the throne room(With a bit of a technologically advanced clockpunk Aztec/Mayan asthetic), looking rather happy and excited, with a taller, more well muscled jaguar watching from the throne with a warm smile.

1. Blaze: When the two were younger, they were just about inseperable! There was only about a year and a half's age difference between them, and, no matter what anyone did, they couldn't be separated for long.

PANEL TWO A shot of the two as teenagers, the male jaguar being surrounded by both attracted male and female feline mobians, laughing a bit, clearly enthused from all the attention, while his sister seems to be reading from some sort of holographic scroll nearby, rolling her eyes a bit.

1. Blaze: Even as the two grew older, and their interests clearly differed as time went on-He enjoyed basking in the attention of others', and, she had an interest in both lore and history-They still remained close.

PANEL THREE A shot of some sort of ceremony, both standing at center of a crowd, with the two sticking their hands into some sort, and not being harmed.

1. Blaze: And, of course, both were blessed by the sun, and, possessed great power over fire and other magics!

PANEL FOUR The male Jaguar shows off, creating rings and cubes, and different shapes out of fire, to an awed crowd.

1. Blaze: Some would say the brother preferred the destructive side of fire, but, he was very creative, and, could bend the shape of fire more easily than his sister and most others.

PANEL FIVE The female caracal creates flames of different colors close to the crowd, who don't seem to be as fearful as they are curious.

1. Blaze: The sister, though, was more entuned with the life nature of fire, and, recognize that fire and heat were a part of life, and, so, could create flames with many beneficial effects, including healing.

PAGE SIXTEEN - THREE PANELS

PANEL ONE As the crowd cheers for the both of them, they face toward each other, and just sort of smile knowingly at each other.

1. Blaze: They were beloved by both their parents, and their people. As long as they remained together, the two siblings were practically unstoppable.

PANEL TWO The brother watches from the back, as a male cat in ornate robes, similar looking in appearance to Blaze, kisses the hand of his sister, who seems to be smiling.

1. Blaze: But, as they grew older, and became adults, one of the king's mages took an interest in, and began courting the princess, who quickly started to reciprocate his feelings.

PANEL THREE A close up shot, the brother's face is a mixture between anger and concern, with his teeth bared to a degree.

1. Blaze: The prince did not like this, and, was furious that someone would try to court his only sibling, but, at the same time, he loved his sister, and wanted her to be happy.

PAGE SEVENTEEN - FIVE PANELS

PANEL ONE The brother points accusingly at the male cat mage infront of his father, sister, and the father's staff and advisors.

1. Blaze: Soon enough, though, it became more than he could bear. One day, he outright challenged the mage to a magic duel, that all the people would see. He would not let this one take his sister.

PANEL TWO The Sister grabs her brother's arm, with tears streaming/flooding out of her face, and a horrified look on her face.

1. Blaze: The sister begged him, pleaded with him to stop! She did not want either her brother or her beloved to be hurt. But, he would not listen. He was filled with jealously, and a fury that not even she could quell.

PANEL THREE The brother and mage face other at opposite sides of a small-medium sized arena.

1. Blaze: And, so it was that the prince and the mage would fight each other the next day.

PANEL FOUR A fiery, yet shadowy aura surrounds the mage, who has both of his eyes closed, and his hands together as he's obviously preparing some sort of offensive spell.

1. Blaze: But, as much as the mage did not want to fight the beloved prince, he could not let himself die either. And, to lose would be to die for him. So, he decided that he would use a lesser known spell, of a type of magic that was consider taboo by many a magic user-

PANEL FIVE The mage sends a blazing, shadowy torrent of fire, right at the prince from his hands, knocking the prince down, with the prince facing away from the audience.

1. Blaze: And, so, he cast a curse on him, one that would force the prince into an eternal slumber.

PAGE EIGHTEEN - FIVE PANELS

PANEL ONE The king(Tall, muscular male jaguar) is shouting at the mage in rage, with tears streaming down his eyes. The princess is trying to calm her father down.

1. Blaze: The king was outraged. He demanded the mage cure his son, but, since the type of magic wasn't well studied, no one really knew how to cure it.

PANEL TWO The king, face obscured, but still streaming with tears, simply points away, basically telling him to go.

1. Blaze: So, since he had taken his beloved son from him, the king ordered the mage banished. He was exiled, ordered to leave through the gates to wander the worlds, with pain of slow death awaiting him should he ever return.

PANEL THREE The princess watches her father the other side of the room sometime after the mage has left, with an expression of clear concern.

1. Blaze: The princess was worried. Knowing her father, he might try just about anything, including using the power of their great sun gems to seize other worlds, so that he might find a way to cure her brother. And, there would be no telling how many he would hurt or kill to that end, in this state of mind.

PANEL FOUR The princess, followed by a number of other members of her feline people, sneaks through the night.

1. Blaze: And, so, one night, while her father was asleep, and the gems were unguarded, she took all seven, and, then, she and a number of her loyal followers snuck through the night, leaving their world behind through the gate, to the first planet her lover had taken. Then, she broke the gate on their side, preventing her father from following. She would make sure the rest of the gates on their new planet were smashed as well.

PANEL FIVE The king sits on his throne, most of the top half of him obscured in shadow, though, he's obviously wearing some sort of golden armor.

1. Blaze: Her father, stuck on his own world, simply bided his time, his rage slowly turning into cold calucation.

PAGE NINETEEN - ONE PANEL SPREAD

PANEL ONE A mosaic of Blaze's world, with the picture of the princess, now a queen, on top of the world, with symbolism of not only grandeur, but, peace and benevolence as well.

1. Blaze: And, so, the princess, who became known as the queen of her new world, ruled in benevolence for two centuries, tethering the sun gems to their new world. She brought a golden age of peace, which remained until she died.

PAGE TWENTY - FOUR PANELS

PANEL ONE Blaze is standing, contemplating on her story, and what she's been told when she was young, and, what she's read since.

1. Blaze: Although...According to legend, after Queen Arteia's death, a cult rose up, and, reassembled the gate leading back to the original Solian homeworld. There's been enough evidence to suggest that the cult is indeed real, and, that we've had to war with the old Solians multiple times over the millenia.

PANEL TWO Lahlee seems to realize something important, which Blaze nods to.

1. Lahlee: Hold on. Queen Lahlee? But- She was the original queen of the Sol dynasty! That means that- 2. Blaze: Yes, it means that we've been fighting those we share ancient ancestors with, for longer than any of us care to remember.

PANEL THREE Blaze has a serious look on her face, which seems to indicate she knows what this means.

1. Blaze: And, if some of these legends are true...

PANEL FOUR A bobcat woman, in technologically advanced, golden colored aztec/mayan style armor, kneels before the throne.

1. Blaze(NB): We might still be facing the old king himself. 2. Bobcat: Sir, our mystics have been contacted by the cult. We should be able to go through the gate in two days time. 3. King: Well, then-

PAGE TWENTY-ONE - ONE PANEL SPREAD

PANEL ONE We can see the king from the story, and, he's wearing some sort of ancient looking, but, still pretty advanced, golden-colored armor. In the bottom right corner, there's a 'TO BE CONTINUED' comic box.

1. King: I suppose its finally time I get to see the measure of my newest descendant...

Okay, so

I’m thinking of doing a TKP/Robotnikholmes type thing(Blogging about the Archie Comics), only

It’s gonna be the Post-SGW

Honestly, the Post-SGW continuity is the Satam/Game mix continuity we didn’t know we needed, but, wasn’t explored nearly enough for what was already introduced to us.

Maybe by doing this, by covering and talking about Post-SGW, I can reignite the flames of interest people had for the Post-SGW universe.

I’ve only really done this once, for barely any time at all, trying to cover the Post-SGW comics in a comedic manner, In character on my Darkswap!Blaze blog, but, what the heck.

So, I’m gonna start with Sonic 252 today, then switch to Sonic Universe 55 tomorrow, and, that’s basically going to be the pattern I’m gonna try and stick with: If I did a main series Sonic book one day, a Sonic Universe will come next, then another Main STH, then SU again, etc.

I know I’ve been really procrastinating on my other projects, but, hopefully, this will be different!

Wish me luck!

K9′s Ramblings #14: Sonic Rivalries

Here in this installment of K9′s Ramblings, I’m gonna set up a cross continuity list of important rivalries within the Sonic franchise. Now let me lay down the law a bit here. The criteria for this list is rivalries that either already exist or should exist based on how anime they would be, spinoff potential and other factors I haven’t thought about yet. With that out of the way, let’s get started:

Sonic the Hedgehog:

Shadow the Hedgehog: The Arch-Rival of Sonic himself. A rivalry which is super anime.

Knuckles the Echidna: The OG rival to Sonic before Shadow, Silver and everyone else came along. Nowadays is just a friendly rival to Sanic, which is a natural progression for both their character arcs.

Silver the Hedgehog: Another friendly rival to Sonic who started out as a more antagonistic rivalry due to circumstances out of each party’s control. Considering how Silver, Sonic and Shadow are often labeled as the “Triple S Trio”, I could argue that Silver would either be a great secondary arch rival to Sonic or co-arch-rivals with Shadow to Sonic. I’d definitely like to see him and Sonic act more playfully cocky towards each other, especially in the IDW comics.

Jet the Hawk: Sonic’s primary extreme gear rival, and nothing else to be honest.

Metal Sonic: This rivalry is more on the antagonistic side than the intense (Shadow) or friendly (Knuckles) side. But I guess this is what happens when a boss battle is so iconic that the character transcends boss-hood.

Johnny: I don’t see much in this rivalry to be honest. It was only around during the Sonic Rush games and I just view Johnny as a glorified second-in-command pirate to Captain Whisker.

Antoine D’Coolette: He (at least his Pre-SGW counterpart) was listed as one of Sonic’s rivals (especially when it came towards winning Sally’s affection) in the Sonic Wiki, so if the Freedom Fighters ever come back to the comics (or hell, maybe even make their own game debuts), I would like their rivalry to be explored more. I could see Twan himself working well with sword play mechanics similar to the ones from Sonic and the Black Knight.

Ash Mongoose: Not so much of a rival but more of a guy jealous against his girlfriend’s former boyfriend. Just adding him here for the sake of completion.

Monkey Khan: Similar to Ash, except these two have actually fought in combat before from what I can tell. If they ever resumed making Sonic Storybook games, he’d be fitting for the role of Sun Wukong in a Journey to the West adaptation. Or a game covering all four of the great classical novels of Chinese literature for that matter.

Geoffrey St. John: Similar to both Khan and Ash in that while I see his squabbles with Sonic over the love of Sally as more petty than anything else, at least I could see him hold up in a fight with Sonic unlike Ash.

Scourge the Hedgehog: Ah yes, the green evil clone of Sonic himself. I kinda like this jackass enough to feel a bit sad that he got purged during the Pendering. Hopefully Penders loses the copyrights/trademarks to what were essential his glorified Donut Steels and is forced to give them back to Sega.

Bean the Dynamite: I honestly have no idea why Bean is considered enough of a rival to Sonic to be included the rivals section of in his Pre-SGW Archie article.

Sam Speed: This rivalry is exclusive to the confines of the Sonic X continuity and is only listed here for completion’s sake. Couldn’t stand this guy’s ego. If the only way you can go fast is through a race car and a Hedgehog speedster can break the sound barrier, then you are already outclassed.

Swifty the Shrew: Just like the guy mentioned above, this rivalry is exclusive to the confines of the Sonic Boom continuity. I honestly cringed while watching the episode because his dialogue was so corny they sounded like an old man executive’s idea of a cool guy. But I’m pretty sure that was what they were going for as a joke. But still. *shivers*

Mighty the Armadillo: I wouldn’t mind or be surprised if Mighty and Sonic had a friendly rivalry going on. Hell, in one of the comics I have, Mighty was teasing Sonic over his big ego. So it’s not like such a development wouldn’t come out of nowhere.

Fang the Sniper: Out of all of what I like to call the “forgotten furries”, I see Fang (along with Mighty) as the strongest contenders to be rivals of Sonic. Though I’m not sure if Fang should remain a villain or be turned into a super reluctant anti-hero. Perhaps Bark could be the moral conscience of Team Hooligan that would ultimately convince Fang to do good deeds if the circumstances are dire enough. (Like if some ancient evil is planning to wipe out all of existance or something.) Bean would go along with whatever because he’s a true wildcard, he doesn’t care much about normalcy whatsoever.

Shadow the Hedgehog:

Sonic the Hedgehog: Not much to say that was already said in Sonic’s section.

Silver the Hedgehog: If there were to ever be an anime style training montage, I could see Shadow giving pointers to Silver (and Sonic as well) how to better harness Chaos Control as a contingency plan against whatever threat they’d be going up against during that particular story arc, be it game, comic, cartoon or whatever medium it’s taking place in.

Jet the Hawk: I’m honestly surprised Jet was listed as one of Shadow’s rivals in the first place. Must’ve been related to the plot of Sonic Free Riders or something.

Knuckles the Echidna: I really liked how their rivalry was depicted in the Post-SGW Archie Comics. But remember that thing I mentioned in the Shadow-Silver rivalry section? Well for that particular training session, I can see Knuckles and Shadow as sparring partners in that regard in order to strengthen each other’s innate Chaos related powers. While Shadow would focus on general chaos emerald usage by fine tuning his Chaos Spears and Chaos Blasts, Knuckles would focus more on strengthening his connection to the Master Emerald. Which I assume would give him the ability to manipulate green Master Emerald energy like in that fight he had with Doctor Finitevus or his All-Star Move from Sonic & Sega All-Stars Racing Transformed.

Eclipse the Darkling: Shadow’s primary antagonist/rival hybrid from the comics. I see Eclipse as the Metal Sonic to Shadow’s Sonic. Plus if Shadow gets his own comic book (or game) spinoff from IDW (or Sega), he would make a great addition to Shadow’s rogues gallery (a subject I will touch upon in a future “K9′s Ramblings” entry.)

Fang the Sniper: Headfanon time! Honestly, I could see Fang and Shadow hanging out at their local shooting range arguing over whether the pistol (Shadow’s preference) or the revolver (Fang’s preference) are the best handguns like the firearms nerds they truly are. This rivalry was inspired by this piece of fanart ( https://www.deviantart.com/tigerfog/art/SegaSonic-Sunset-Showdown-112185195 ) of the two having a good old-fashioned Mexican Standoff.

Geoffrey St. John: Honestly, I could see a rivalry between Shads and Geoff working better than the one Geoff had with Sonic. Especially since ones a government agent working for the Kingdom of Acorn while the other works for the G.U.N. organization (which is very S.H.I.E.L.D. like now that I think about it). A case of democracy versus monarchy if you will.

Silver the Hedgehog:

Sonic the Hedgehog: I’d like to see Silver act more cocky towards Sonic, but in a good teasing way. Plus, I could see these two pulling off a “fastball special” very well.

Shadow the Hedgehog: You know what, maybe Silver would make a great sparring partner with Shadow as well. Since they could practice their own special abilities (Psychokinesis and Chaos Powers) towards each other. It doesn’t necessarily have to be a one-sided deal of Shadow teaching Silver (and Sonic by extension) how to not fuck up the basics of Chaos Control.

Knuckles the Echidna: Can’t think of a clever way to distinguish the Silver-Knuckles rivalry section from the other Triple S entries on Knuckles. I guess Hedgehog/Echidna rivalries go as deep as their Saiyan/Namekian counterparts?

Rouge the Bat: I’m pretty sure she was listed in Silver’s rivals section of the wiki article because of the Sonic Rivals game. But whatever.

Miles “Tails” Prower: Same deal as Rouge above.

Metal Sonic: This one’s kinda more believable considering how headstrong Metal can be with basically anyone he encounters.

Espio the Chameleon: I know they’re good friends and all, but I could see them as friendly rivals towards each other.

Blaze the Cat: During that training session for that hypothetical apocalyptic encounter with a powerful enemy, Blaze would be Silver’s primary sparring partner as a way for both of them to unlock the potential of their latent kinetic abilities. *cough cough cue silvaze moment cough cough*

Knuckles the Echidna:

Rouge the Bat: Knux’s primary rival since the Sonic Adventure 2 days. Though it’s gotten friendlier as the years progressed nowadays. If Knuckles were to ever get a treasure hunting spinoff, I could see their rivalry get more intense in that regard.

Sonic the Hedgehog: Pretty much covered in Sonic’s section.

Emerl the Gizoid: Don’t know much about Sonic Battle’s story, but I’m guessing that the events in that game made them rivals when it came to conflicting goals.

Storm the Albatross: Just like Sonic and Jet, this is Knux’s primary extreme gear rival, other than that, not much going for this rivalry.

Silver the Hedgehog: I could see Knux and Silver as being secondary sparring partners towards each other. Perhaps they could have a similar relationship to the one depicted in this Sasso Studios ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vu28DwBwSDk ) video.

Shadow the Hedgehog: One thing I will say that I didn’t say in the other sections is that their rivalry works on so many levels since both of them are headstrong assholes whose stubborn attitudes can lead to conflict if their goals are conflicted and/or inconvenienced in anyway shape or form.

Thrash the Tasmanian Devil: Knuckles’s primary antagonist/rival double whammy whose origins lie strictly within the comics. Like I mentioned before, hopefully Sega wins back the rights to all the characters Penders created like how Hasbro won the rights to Shockwave’s name back after that period where he was referred to as “Shockblast” during the Energon show.

Fang the Sniper: Again, if Knuckles got his own treasure hunting spinoff, I could see Fang having a rivalry with both Knux and Rouge over who gets the berried treasure. In terms of occupations, Knux is a Guardian of the Master Emerald, Rouge is a Spy/Thief and Fang is a Bounty Hunter/Mercenary.

Miles “Tails” Prower:

Wave the Swallow: As with Sonic and Knuckles, she is Tails’s primary extreme gear rival and nothing much more.

Doctor Eggman: While the Eggmeister himself may be Sonic’s arch-nemesis, he and Tails are definitely worthy opponents to each other when it comes to being men of science.

Battle Kukku XVI a.k.a. “Speedy”: I would say that Speedy is to Tails what Metal Sonic is to Sonic. In that both of them are minions to a prominent member of their respective rogues galleries. (Something that I will dedicate another “K9′s Ramblings” to sometime in the near future.)

Amy Rose:

Rouge the Bat: Going by the wiki, they really don’t get along well, at all.

The Babylon Rogues (Jet, Wave, Storm): Whoa, I guess Amy really hates these birds as a collective. I wouldn’t blame her, considering how much of a smarmy douche Jet tends to be.

Sally Acorn: I said in the previous post that I like both Sonamy and Sonally, so let me be clear that I think their rivalry would be friendly and on good terms. Okay? Okay. Moving on.

Rouge the Bat:

Knuckles the Echidna: Not much to say that hasn’t already been said in the Knuckles section, that’s for sure.

Miles “Tails” Prower: Well, she did teasingly kiss Tails in the Sonic X adaptation of Sonic Battle, so I could see it working in that regard.

Wave the Swallow:

Amy Rose: Same as in Amy’s section, these two don’t get along very much.

Vector the Crocodile: I was not aware the Vex and Rouge had a rivalry going on until after browsing the wiki a bit. So here it goes.

Blaze the Cat:

Amy Rose: I see them as friendly rivals. Mainly because I was inspired by this image ( https://www.deviantart.com/mitzy-chan/art/Keijo-Amy-vs-Blaze-667017201 ) by Mitzy-Chan/Blue Chika parodying the Keijo anime/manga series.

Silver the Hedgehog: I can see these two being friendly rivals of sorts. Especially if they’re the kind to tease each other about it. Plus they’d also probably be the types to do some sparring matches as a form of training.

Shadow the Hedgehog: I can see Shadz respecting Blaze’s power/fighting ability and vice versa. Both of them are the serious types after all.

Sonic the Hedgehog: The wiki does list them as “partners in combat”, so there’s that. Plus the Blaze vs Sonic boss battle is super duper anime as hell. It was like a boost/spin dash beam struggle.

Bunnie Rabbot: Honestly, I only put her here because of this shitpost image I saw one time where Blaze got jealous of Bunnie’s... *ahem*... “assets”, if you know what I mean.

Vector the Crocodile (and the Chaotix Detective Agency in general, but mostly Vex):

Rouge the Bat: If the Chaotix got their own Phoenix Wright style detective crime drama visual novel, then I could see Rouge being adversaries towards them when it comes to breaking the law by stealing jewels.

The Babylon Rogues (Jet, Wave, Storm): I’m guessing this was from the time when Vex filled in for Big on Team Rose during the events of Sonic Free Riders.

Shade the Echidna: Since she may or may not be based on Julie-Su, I figured I put her as a rival to Vector as a nod to that trivia piece. Plus I was kinda inspired by this fanart pic ( https://www.deviantart.com/knockabiller/art/Throwing-Shade-681549963 ) of them interacting. And look, they’re even doing a fastball special in that piece.

Team Hooligans (Fang, Bean, Bark): Just like with Rouge, if the Chaotix got their own detective spinoff games, then the Hooligans would definitely be adversaries to them. Whether they’d be criminals on the run or gruff bounty hunters working with the law is (somewhat) up for debate.

XXXX-XXXX-XXXX

That about covers it for now. Next time I’ll be covering potential rogues galleries for IDW Sonic spinoffs if they ever decide to go down that road. But until then, take care now.
