Srish the Water Strider

Srish is a water strider humanoid/Mobian who's part of Team Dragoon. He is owned by Hero of Team Dragoon.
== History ==
Srish was born in Seaside Hill, part of the tribe that lived among the ruins. His childhood was mostly just living in the ruins, as the village taught him all that was needed to survive, and he was mostly content among the ruins. Throughout his time there, he would witness the effects of the Neo Metal Sonic incident from the ruins, as well as meeting (and getting attacked by) the Badniks, and the Dark Gaia incident, with the Dark Gaia monsters driving him and his tribe deeper into the ruins. Then a Rhythm Wisp showed up. The wisp and Srish bonded almost immediately, with Srish naming it Waves, after it's sound based powers and waves of water. Aside from that though, Waves also gave him a insatiable curiosity about the rest of the world. If something this cool existed out there in the world, then there must be something cooler too.
From there, Srish would leave his tribe and go explore the world. This happened to be right during the start of the Phantom Ruby incident, and with the world in trouble, he would end up hiding in Windmill Village, which the war never reached. After the war ended, Srish and Waves would resume their journey, now with a far better understanding of the world and a map. They would run afoul of multiple Badnik gangs throughout their exploration, mostly on accident until they had perfected the Spin Attack. From then on, they would go after any Badniks in sight, eventually obtaining a basic White Wispon, with which they would scatter many Badnik gangs.
Eventually though, the excess Badniks started to thin. The world was also getting more quiet. The Metal Virus had struck, and he just hadn't noticed. Eventually though, some Zombots found him, and he realized there was a new threat abound. He would begin running across rivers and lake whenever he could, then managed to gather a small Wisp army who were also escaping the Zombots, and hole up in one of the abandoned Sunset City apartments. He and the Wisps would stay there until he witnessed the Metal Virus being levitated away by Silver. As he ran out to watch the spectacle, multiple former Zombots would gather around and watch alongside him. He would become known in the city as the Traveler, and as one of the only 87 of Sonic's people who escaped the Zombots without Restoration support.
From there, he would join in the reconstruction efforts, being deployed around by the Restoration to restore damaged structures. He would also take some time to revisit Seaside Hill, learning his tribe had been captured on the Death Egg during the war, then had became Zombots, and a majority of them were lost. He would then attempt to help the Chaotix find his missing people among the thousands of others lost in the outbreak, though not having much time, with him still assisting the Restoration. While he would miss the Zeti Hunt, he helped fix the damage caused by it, and it was there he first met Dria, a member of the Security Corps at the time. The two liked each other, but due to being on the Security Corps, Srish was often unable to find Dria. 
For a while, Srish stayed on the reconstruction teams, just rebuilding. But then he met Alan, who would mention that he was joining the Badnik Corps. Intrigued by the idea more than he had been about the Security Corps, he looked into the roster, and found Dria among them. He would immediately join her team. Alan would then follow, alongside Alas, and finally Silence. Quickly, the four would form Team Dragoon(With Alas just being along for the ride). Srish would find the time great fun, but was always uncomfortable around the aggressive Alas. Then Alas betrayed the team and the wider Restoration, causing him to realize part of the reason he was uncomfortable, and get mad, with Alas becoming one of the few people to infuriate Srish.
Afterwards, Srish and Team Dragoon would keep doing what they had always done, breaking up Eggman bases with some weirder adventures on the side. Srish always did like when Team Dragoon did something out of the norm, and they just happened to attract a lot of weird events. From dimensional adventures, to stuff that would fit with what Sonic gets up to, Team Dragoon always seems to do stuff beyond the norm. He also enjoys riding Extreme Gear, especially his personal one, having been the most eager to try it with Dria.
Srish is very eager to try just about any new activity, which is most blatantly shown during the Olympic Games. Srish would participate in multiple events during the games, and would even happen to run into the group of Mario and Sonic characters attempting to solve a problem caused by Eggman. He would end up being the member of Team Dragoon who participated the most in solving the problem just by being at the right game at the right time.
Of course, just like the other members of Team Dragoon, Eggman would kidnap his parents during the later half of Team Dragoon's existence, and create the Iron Dragoons, a subset of the Iron Series based off Srish and Team Dragoon. Team Dragoon would immediately go to save them, with Srish being the one to take it the most seriously somehow. After a life threatening adventure, Srish would save his family and the others alongside Team Dragoon.
== Appearance ==
Srish has sea green skin. Aside from that, he wears generic white gloves, except during specific events, such as the Olympic Games, where he wears fitting sportswear in varying shades of blue or green, and during Extreme Gear riding, where he wears goggles and blue shoes for keeping his balance on his Extreme Gear.
== Personality ==
Srish is friendly and happy almost all the time, always eager to try something new or make a new friend. It's hard to stress this ray of sunshine out, but those who do eventually face his anger. When angry, Srish focuses his high energy on destroying the source of his anger, unless it's a friend, in which case he'll just argue.
== Abilities ==
As a Water Strider Mobian, Srish has the ability to walk, and even stand on water. Aside from that, he was born without superpowers, but gained some after the Power Asteroid passed overhead. Srish also has gained a unnaturally high top speed from his interactions with Sonic, like all of Sonic's other friends. As well, at some point, Srish and his friends were taught how to rail grind by Sonic, with Srish picking it up quickly. Thanks to inspiration obtained from using his personal Extreme Gear, Hover, he has also developed a specialized kick-based fighting style. As well, he's the only one on Team Dragoon who learned to Spin Attack.
== Transformations ==
=== Super Srish ===
When Srish gathers the seven Chaos Emeralds, he can take this form. In this state, he gains all the usual benefits of a Super State, as well as empowering his wisp companion, allowing it to use it's transformation on it's own and grant Srish Super Rhythm. In terms of appearance, his skin becomes golden
=== Super Rhythm ===
Super Rhythm allows the user to summon and bounce along explosive music notes. Like other Super Wisps, the power of a Super State prevents the transformation from tiring them out, allowing them to use it over and over.
=== Omni Energy Srish ===
Like Alan, Srish once combined with every wisp known of at the time simultaneously to obtain this form. In it, he could use the powers of every Wisp for about a minute.
=== Superpowered Srish ===
When the Power Asteroid passed overhead, Srish gained power over ice. This power was mainly concentrated in his feet and allows him to freeze anything by stepping on it or kicking it. After the Power Asteroid disappeared, Srish could regain these powers through exposure to Power Energy.
== Dimensional Dreaming ==
Like his friends, Srish experiences dimensional dreams on occasion due to his frequent travel through dimensions. The character he takes the role of in these dreams is Sonic.
