Infexion is a character created by Twitter user Shinestarz_ and was created on December 3rd, 2021.
== Overview ==
Infexion is a virus hivemind attempting to pass through to the real world, in an attempt to become it’s ‘god’. He takes the vessel of Sonic as his main host, but any other character who falls under his control is considered “him” as well. The main vessel, titled HEDGEHOG, is a slightly distorted version of Sonic. His fur is purple, with a static effect that makes it difficult to focus one’s eyes on him. His skin is pitch black, with no light reflecting off of it at all.
== Biography ==
Infexion is a piece of corrupted data that gained sentience inside of a cancelled Sonic game, titled the Sonic Oldies Collection for PC. Only one copy of the game exists, and that disc is where Infexion still resides to this day. Shaping the game’s contents to be more akin to a conventional world of the Sonic universe, Infexion has linked all the game’s events into one experience; which is where he has his fun. Should a player ever find the game, he’ll feign them having control so he can slowly corrupt their computer and take control of it; and by the end of the game, when they realize what’s actually happening here– it’ll be too late.
The world he has crafted is only one step in his plan of becoming real, but the ‘inhabitants’ of said world are far more resistant than he intended them to be.
== Abilities/Weakness ==
=== Abilities ===
Body Snatching: Infexion has the power to infect living beings, placing them under his control. Once he has control of their bodies, they lose all sense of who they once were, and become merely an extension of Infexion’s self. His main five vessels are Sonic, Tails, Knuckles, Eggman, and Amy.
Hive Mind: Any entity under his control is considered an extension of Infexion’s own self, allowing him to control them individually, or act under his
Energy Manipulation: Infexion can expel energy from his body, to use as an attack, for movement, or otherwise.
Enhanced Abilities: Infexion’s abilities are superior versions of those he inhabits; the Sonic vessel is faster, the Knuckles vessel is stronger, and the Eggman vessel is more cunning.
Vessel Merging: Any two vessels under the control of Infexion can fuse; creating something exponentially stronger. The resulting vessel has physical traits of both fuses, and the abilities of both.
=== Weaknesses ===
His abilities only extend to living beings. Anything that isn’t organic isn’t vulnerable to his control.
Beings with strong mental fortitude can resist his infection to a point– though they can’t nullify it completely.
He is only as strong as his current vessels. If he’s only in control of one, he’s only as strong as said vessel. But if he has control of multiple, he can use each of them to his advantage.
== Trivia ==
* Infexion and Vulpes are friends, and have a tendency to work together as they strive for a same main goal, to become real.
* Infexion exists within SECTOR ONE, along with several other EXEs. These include TD, Jex, Spike, and Vulpes.
* If Infexion were to go Super, his palette would resemble the colors of a VCR tape, and his physical form would be very glitchy and hard to look at.
* His headcanon voice is that of William Afton from Five Nights at Freddy’s.
* His original design was more inspired by the American depiction of Sonic. The design is still technically canon, though it isn’t his current appearance.
