Line #101 Characters/SonicDestruction


1	[[foldercontrol]]
2
3	!Sonic and Friends
4
5	[[folder:Sonic the Hedgehog/Sonic the Human]]
6	!!!Played by: Penny Parker
7	* AllOrNothing: Sonic declares that his race/battle against Eggman's Ultimate Lifeform is this, wanting Eggman to stop attacking the planet if he wins, and letting Eggman do what he wishes if he loses (or rather, being too dead to prevent it).
8	* AmbiguouslyEvil: Though he ultimately fights to save the world, Sonic briefly contemplates destroying it. He also seems disappointed that Eggman isn't doing more to act upon his evil plan, and is rather casual about all the death and destruction surrounding him. Complicating matters is Shadow's claim that Sonic is being mind controlled by Elise, who ''also'' seems to be under some kind of dark outside influence.
9	* AndThenWhat: Sonic threatens to just allow the world's [[TitleDrop Destruction]] when Eggman's conquest plans threaten to blow it up, in an attempt to show Eggman how he's gone too far.
10	* BerserkButton: Tells Shadow to "get the fuck out of [his] room" when he dares insinuate that Sonic has never eaten a chili dog.
11	* EveryoneHasStandards: Sonic may be an enormous gaslighter, but he has little patience for Shadow's conspiracy theories.
12	* HeelFaceRevolvingDoor: Sonic starts out as one of the good guys [[ThePiratesWhoDontDoAnything who never actually does anything heroic]]. He finally starts to take action and goes to Eggman, saying he's there to stop him from destroying the world. Then Sonic considers destroying it himself, and claims he's trying to help a discouraged Eggman before shortly going back to opposing him again, this time actually fighting against evil. After being resurrected by Daedalus, he then becomes a full-blown villain and violently assaults the mayor. And ''then'' he [[TookALevelInKindness becomes far more amicable to Amy after trying to gaslight her in their previous interaction and sincerely promising to help her when she asks for it]]. He also [[ReluctantPsycho questions why he almost seems happy when sees the city in its ruined state]].
13	* HumanityEnsues: At the end of Episode 1, Sonic, seemingly having been killed and sent flying to space just a scene prior, suddenly appears in the City Hall as a hooded figure...and turns out to not be a hedgehog anymore, but a human. Episode 2 reveals he was brought back by some figure named Daedalus, supposedly to eliminate the mayor.
14	* {{Jerkass}}: Sonic frequently {{gaslight\|ing}}s those around him and cares so little for the world's destruction that he considers finishing the job himself.
15	* LaserGuidedAmnesia: Sonic had lost some of his memories when he was turned into a human, thanks to a subordinate of Daedalus.
16	* NominalHero: Given how long they wait to even try saving the city this can apply to all the heroes, but Sonic is clearly the biggest example. He's far more nonchalant about its destruction and all the death that entails than anyone else, and he even ponders at one point if he should destroy it himself. Despite that, he ''does'' try to help eventually.
17	* OffscreenTeleportation: When Sonic confronts Eggman in his ship, the cast notes how there's no explanation for how Sonic got there from the city. He later somehow shows up in Jason King's office despite having just died in the ship.
18	-->'''Sonic:''' How's it going, Eggman?\
19	'''Eggman (off-script):''' [[LampshadeHanging How the fuck did you get in here?]]
20	* OurHeroIsDead: Although his status as a hero is debatable, The Ultimate Lifeform still ends up killing Sonic at the end of Episode 1. [[UnexplainedRecovery He gets better]].
21	* PaperThinDisguise: In order to avoid Eggman's robots in the city, Sonic changes his hairstyle.
22	* TakingYouWithMe: Sonic is mortally wounded by the Ultimate Lifeform when they fight in Eggman's ship, but lasts just long enough to [[ThrownOutTheAirlock activate the airlock]].
23	* TrademarkFavoriteFood: Sonic says it's chili dogs, but Shadow questions if he's ever actually had any.
24	* UnexplainedRecovery: Sonic just appears in Jason King's office right after dying in Eggman's ship. The only explanation given is that this somehow fulfills a prophecy. While Episode 2 reveals that Daedalus (or at least, his subordinate) was responsible, no explanation is given for how it was achieved, or why.

26
27	[[folder:Tails]]
28	!!!Played By: Mar Katoto
29	* {{Angrish}}: He devolves into growling at Knuckles at the end of Episode 2.
30	* DeadpanSnarker: Most of his dialogue is bits of soft-spoken sarcasm and annoyed quips.
31	* LaserGuidedAmnesia: At the end of Episode 2. He's largely the same, except being around Knuckles makes him so irrationally angry that he just starts barking.
32	* PaperThinDisguise: In order to avoid Eggman's robots in the city, Tails weaves his two tails into one big tail.
33	* SuddenlyShouting: "This is ''bullshit''!"
34	[[/folder]]
35
36	[[folder:Knuckles the Echidna]]
37	!!!Played By: Scout
38	* AdaptationalIntelligence: While he's certainly no super genius, this is still one of the smarter versions of Knuckles, who is usually just the group's DumbMuscle.
39	* LaserGuidedAmnesia: At the end of Episode 2. He's largely the same, except being around Tails makes him so irrationally angry that he just starts barking.
40	* OnlySaneMan: Knuckles takes a moment to ask if anyone is actually trying to save the city after all the other heroes (and himself) have done nothing to help. And though his efforts are mostly offscreen, he ''does'' appear to be amongst the more proactive heroes.
41	* PaperThinDisguise: In order to avoid Eggman's robots in the city, Knuckles wears a jacket.
42	* StealthHiBye: Knuckles frequently appears out of nowhere. The other characters make no note of this, but the cast very much does and they jokingly point out that he has a habit of randomly showing up [[MythologyGag in the games]].
43	[[/folder]]
44
45	[[folder:Amy Rose]]
46	!!!Played By: Holly/[=HollowTones=]
47	* BlatantLies: Immediately after entering City Hall, Amy claims that everyone who was already there have finally arrived after keeping her waiting forever.
48	* ButNowIMustGo: She says an emotional farewell to Sonic in Episode 2... only to keep talking to him "from really far away".
49	* DemotedToExtra: Her only role in Episode 2 is to be led to a train station by Sonic. After she leaves, she doesn't reappear.
50	[[/folder]]
51
52	[[folder:Shadow the Hedgehog]]
53	!!!Played By: Ryan Mitchum
54	* DeadAllAlong: The real Shadow apparently died years ago. The current one is a video game character that can be controlled through a magic Platform/PlayStation2 and possibly also an alternate personality of Daedalus.
55	* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: As seen with how he acts towards Elise after defeating her against his battle with her in the burning Station Square, and many other parts in the entire Episode 1.
56	* {{Jerkass}}: Shadow outright insults Silver multiple times and questions why they're friends. Later on, he purposefully ignores Silver and Rouge during a crisis to consult with Knuckles.
57	* JustAMachine: Shadow couldn't imagine himself being friends with a robot. Poor Omega...
58	* LiteralSplitPersonality: Possibly one of [[spoiler:Daedalus and Silver as Silver controls him through the [=PS2=] and he keeps talking to Daedalus even after he transforms back into his true form.]]
59	* MercyKill: After Elise's dragon [[PrecisionCrash gets crushed by the remains of the Ultimate Lifeform]], Shadow puts two bullets in its head to stop its suffering.
60	[[/folder]]
61
62	[[folder:Other Shadow the Hedgehog]]
63	!!!Played By: Ryan Mitchum
64	* DontYouDarePityMe: After Sonic comforts the second Shadow, he responds by punching him in the face.
65	* MesACrowd: After destroying an Eggman-controlled hovercar trying to kill them, Sonic and Shadow hear a cry from a nearby forest, and find a ''second'' Shadow who's distraught about failing to keep a promise he made to Elise. Episode 2 makes this even more confusing, as the first Shadow is revealed to be a disguised Daedalus, who claims that the real Shadow has been dead for years, yet at the same time, Silver ''also'' claims to be Shadow.
66	[[/folder]]
67
68	[[folder:Rouge the Bat]]
69	!!!Played By: [=DollipDaze=]
70	* AuthorAvatar: Her appearance in Episode 2 is mostly so Penny can try to keep the story on track.
71	* FantasticRacism: Hates wizards and is disgusted at the the idea of dying to one.
72	* IveHeardOfThatWhatIsIt: She claims to have read the book on Daedalus, only to ask what it is one sentence afterwards.
73	* LazyBum: Her primary characteristic is refusing to participate in anything.
74	* OnlySaneMan: Shares this role with Knuckles as she is the one to try and keep the story focused, as well as acknowledging inconsistencies like Daedalus supposedly faking his death.
75	[[/folder]]
76
77	[[folder:Silver the Hedgehog]]
78	!!!Played By: Red Van Buskirk
79	* DarkAndTroubledPast: Witnessed the destruction of his home country.
80	* TheDevilIsALoser: Despite being an incarnation of Satan, he has no fashion sense, heavily relies on Shadow to accomplish things for him, and needs to play on a Platform/PlayStation2 to focus.
81	* EvilAllAlong: ''Possibly''. He's revealed to somehow ''also'' be Shadow the Hedgehog, possibly by controlling him through the game, and also possibly Satan himself, but it's never exactly made clear.
82	* KarmaHoudini: [[InformedAttribute At least, according to himself]]. He never got in trouble for the king and queen of Epirus dying when the meteorite they were inside of crashed, though how he could be responsible for such an occurrence is never stated.
83	* LastOfHisKind: He's the only surviving prototype of the Daedalus Initiative.
84	* MrExposition: Delivers two long [[InfoDump Infodumps]] explaining his backstory in Episode 2, though he doesn't answer Knuckles' question about his connection with Shadow.
85	* RobotBuddy: Silver claims to have made a robot friend in the city named Q-B, but they don't make an appearance.
86	* StrawMisogynist: Silver seems utterly repulsed when Shadow asks if his new friend is a girl.
87	[[/folder]]
88
89	[[folder:Mayor Jason King]]
90	!!!Played By: Jackson Ward
91	* AmbiguouslyEvil: Comes across as a bit dastardly in his interaction with Sonic and ''might'' be plotting something, but mostly seems just like a normal mayor.
92	* AmoralAttorney: One possible interpretation of Gerald's claim that Jason once "defended" Eggman against accusations of mass murder, despite Jason himself being sure of his guilt.
93	* BadassNormal: An aging, overweight human who threatens to slowly kill an incarnation of Satan himself while he's still recovering from a brutal beating from sonic.
94	* ButtMonkey: Sonic beats him within an inch of his life not long after his city is destroyed.
95	* CanonForeigner: He's a product of ''VideoGame/AIDungeon2''.
96	* FirstNameBasis: The script mostly refers to him as "Jason". [[spoiler:Slightly subverted if the cast's "theory" that he's truly the 'Sergeant "O"' (aka 'Captain Obvious') that Knuckles believed could help Sonic defeat Eggman.]]
97	* MadeOfIron: Survives an absolutely vicious beatdown by Sonic, yet is largely fine by his next scene.
98	* RememberTheNewGuy: Jason King appears suddenly and prominently in the first episode's second half, and later at the beginning and end of the second episode.
99	[[/folder]]
100
101	[[folder:Vector the Crocodile]]
102	!!!Played By: Mar Katoto
103	* BigBrotherIsWatching: Has apparently set up a surveillance state that has no affiliation with the government.
104	* GrumpyOldMan: Despite being the same age as Rouge, he has a mild case of this when he complains about “kids nowadays” getting all the superpowers.
105	[[/folder]]
106
107	[[folder:Charlemagne "Charmy" Bee]]
108	!!!Played By: Holly/[=HollowTones=]
109	* ButtMonkey: He shows up in one scene to get insulted by Shadow, and then shows up later to get knocked out (and possibly killed) by Daedalus. The story goes out of its way to mention that subduing Charmy was particularly easy for Daedalus and his men.
110	[[/folder]]
111
112	!Antagonists
113	[[folder:Dr. Eggman/Dr. Ivo Robotnik]]
114	!!!Played By: Alfred Coleman
115	* BigBad: Of Episode 1, with the script outright calling him "our antagonist". He ends up usurped of this role later on.
116	* BlatantLies: Eggman tries to deceive Mayor King into believing the city has been saved while it's being attacked. King calls him out on it by bringing up that Elise and her dragon are still rampaging.
117	* HeelFaceRevolvingDoor: Eggman starts off the story trying to rule the world. After a while, he seems utterly disillusioned with world domination when he realizes the planet is going to be destroyed anyway. When Sonic starts to show an evil side of his own, Eggman calls him out for losing his way. After Sonic resumes being a good guy though, Eggman lets the Ultimate Lifeform loose to oppose him and do whatever it wants to the city. Offscreen, he most likely returns to his state of disillusionment because when we next see him, he's decided to focus on aiding Knuckles and Tails in their [[TheOmniscientCouncilOfVagueness masked council]] shenanigans instead, seemingly cementing him as having turned face.
118	* {{Misblamed}}: Silver blames him for some kind of apocalyptic attack on his home village, but if Gerald is to be believed, he was set up by the military to take the blame.
119	* PaperThinDisguise: It's apparently obvious that Eggman is one of the masked men in City Hall.
120	* ScrewThisImOutOfHere: After Tails and Knuckles [[LaserGuidedAmnesia lose their memories]] in the second episode, Eggman decides "Yeah, they're fucked" and leaves the room.
121	* SmokeOut: Eggman fires missiles from his car to make a smokescreen.
122	* VisionaryVillain: Eggman insists that he's a scientist with a vision when Sonic confronts him in his ship's control room, though Sonic retorts that he's just a madman...with a vision.
123	[[/folder]]
124
125	[[folder:Gerald Robotnik]]
126	!!!Played By: Dyvonne
127	* TheAntichrist: According to an ancient prophecy, Gerald Robotnik is destined to destroy the world; he himself seems to be [[ObliviouslyEvil completely confused by this]].
128	* CompositeCharacter: Has visual similarities to the GUN Commander, along with apparently being in charge of "the Military," the GUN stand-in.
129	* InsufferableGenius: Brags about his intelligence in Episode 2.
130	* ObfuscatingStupidity: Possibly. Him being the Antichrist is barely mentioned at all in Episode Two, but he is shown to be a far more threatening, competent villain this time around as opposed to just being confused and possibly senile.
131	* SparedByTheAdaptation: Somewhat. In ''VideoGame/SonicAdventure2'' and ''VideoGame/ShadowTheHedgehog'', Gerald was just a PosthumousCharacter, but here, Gerald is very much well and alive just like the rest of the cast.
132	* TookALevelInBadass: Comes across as rather bumbling in the first episode where he doesn't even seem to know how he's related to Eggman. The second episode makes him out to be a much more intelligent threat, with him going into an InfoDump worthy of a VideoGame/MetalGear villain.
133	[[/folder]]
134
135	[[folder:Ultimate Lifeform]]
136	* ADogNamedDog: The Ultimate Lifeform doesn't have an actual name.
137	* BioweaponBeast: Eggman has created another Ultimate Lifeform to aid in his world domination scheme. How it's supposed to help him isn't made clear since its abilities are not well-defined, but Sonic's insistence on racing it suggests it may at least have SuperSpeed.
138	* CanonForeigner: It's a product of ''VideoGame/AIDungeon2''.
139	* DiscOneFinalBoss: Dies in the climax of Episode One.
140	* PrecisionCrash: Although it's mentioned that Eggman's satellite was close enough to the planet for characters to see it in the sky, it's still rather coincidental that the ejected Ultimate Lifeform manages to crash down exactly on the head of Elise's dragon.
141	* ThrownOutTheAirlock: The Ultimate Lifeform is defeated when Sonic [[TakingYouWithMe uses the last of his life force]] to press a button that lowers a wall and sucks it out of the satellite they were fighting in. [[PrecisionCrash Coincidentally, it crashes right on Elise's dragon's head]].
142	[[/folder]]
143
144	[[folder:Princess Elise]]
145	!!!Played By: Sophie Armstrong
146	* AdaptationalVillainy: Elise, a benevolent princess in ''VideoGame/SonicTheHedgehog2006'', starts destroying her home city for what is apparently no reason while [[NeverMyFault blaming Shadow]] in the first episode. Knuckles mentions that [[EvilDoppelganger she might actually be a fake created by Eggman]], but it's never elaborated on.
147	* AxCrazy: Princess Elise shows up at the climax of Episode 1, riding a dragon and attacking the heroes while shouting utterly deranged phrases. The cast assumes she's [[TheStoner insanely high]] as she's doing it:
148	-->'''Princess Elise:''' Steroids, steroids, does whatever a spider can!
149	* BestialityIsDepraved: [[DownplayedTrope Downplayed]]. All the characters are anthropomorphic so it's closer to InterspeciesRomance, but Elise's perverse obsession with [[CharacterExaggeration kissing hedgehogs]] is treated with contempt by the entire voice cast.
150	* DemotedToExtra: Only appears briefly in Episode Two, where she, of course, [[RunningGag kisses a hedgehog]], specifically Shadow.
151	* NeverWasThisUniverse: After her dragon has been killed, a defeated and weak Princess Elise's dying words are that the city where the story has mostly taken place isn't their home, as she wants to return to Earth. Though it is left unclear if this is true, or simply a result of her unhinged mind.
152	* RedEyesTakeWarning: Shadow realizes that Elise has become evil when she confronts him in a forest with red eyes.
153	[[/folder]]
154
155	[[folder:The Killer]]
156	* TheMole: Apparently disguised as one of the protagonists.
157	* WhatHappenedToTheMouse: The story completely forgets about them almost as soon as they're brought up. [[spoiler: Unless we are meant to assume they are Daedalus disguised as Shadow.]]

163	[[folder:Daedalus]]
164	!!!Played By: Scout[[spoiler:, Ryan Mitchum (Shadow)]]
165	* AmbiguousSituation:
166	** What exactly he is unclear at the moment.
167	** Despite impersonating Shadow (who he states has been dead for years), Shadow briefly shows up to call Daedalus out on his greed. Whether Shadow is a SplitPersonality or NotQuiteDead isn't entirely clear.
168	* ArchEnemy: To Mayor Jason King. He apparently resurrected Sonic specifically to fight him.
169	* BigBad: The closest thing the series has had to one.
170	* ChildSoldiers: Commanded them in the past, and makes use of them again to restrain Sonic and friends.
171	* FakingTheDead: Apparently did this, despite nobody mentioning it beforehand.
172	* {{Greed}}: Shadow and Vector argue that this is his motivation, and that he's being driven insane by it.
173	* MadScientist: He's apparently a scientist, and he's also apparently responsible for turning Sonic into a human after he died.
174	* NinjaPirateZombieRobot: A likely immortal magical scientist with connections to the government.
175	* NotSoWellIntentionedExtremist: He claims that he's using his gifts to better the world, Shadow and Vector argue that he's just doing it for his own greed.
176	* ScienceWizard: He was stated to be a mage with magical protection.
177	* Really700YearsOld: It's implied that he's responsible for writing the book of prophecy.
178	* VoluntaryShapeshifting: He can apparently do this [[spoiler: which he uses to disguise himself as Shadow.]]
179	[[/folder]]
180
181	[[folder:Dr. Wyatt]]
182	!!!Played By: [=DollipDaze=]
183	Gerald Robotnik's assistant at Skygard.
184	* {{Hypocrite}}: Shadow wonders how she could thrive around death, yet be afraid of dying herself.

192	!Groups
193	[[folder:"The Military"]]
194	* AmbiguousSituation: while a group/faction, "The Military" is also most likely the AI's interpretation of the sonic games universe's "Guardian Units of Nations/G.U.N.", yet still very little is known about them until further episodes release.
195	* GreaterScopeVillain: The end of Episode 2 seems to imply that they're responsible for... ''whatever'' is going on with Shadow and Silver, and maybe even Daedalus. And if Gerald is correct, the destruction of Soleanna.
196	[[/folder]]
197
198	[[folder:The Organization/Jason King's Organization]]
199	* BreakingTheFellowship: By the end of Episode 2, Knuckles and Tails have lost their memories and are reduced to growling at one another, and Jason and Silver show some hostility to each other. Silver states that the group is falling apart.
200	* TheOmniscientCouncilOfVagueness: PlayedForLaughs, the city's mayor Jason King meets with five masked figures in the City Hall to discuss the current end of the world thing; the stage directions immediately reveals two of them to be Knuckles and Tails, and one to be "[[PaperThinDisguise obviously Eggman]]".
