Ecto the Hedgehog

<spotify uri="spotify:track:2iQht7YgPqn4PW7DWLVYze" height="80" />
Ecto the Hedgehog is the founder of Team Alpha and the one of the two beings to be part animal and part wisp.
== Appearance ==
=== Original ===
Ecto is a tall, slim anthropomorphic hedgehog with blue eyes, purple fur, peach skin on his muzzle and insides of his ears, five quills with green streaks forming a star shape, white fur on his belly, dark grey shoes with black sock cuffs, white gloves, two spines coming out from his shoulder blades and a short pointed tail.
Ecto also usually wears a wrist cuff that blocks temporal displacements (time disturbances) as well as a Chaos Emerald cage that allows him to attach the Emeralds to his body.
=== 5 Years Later/10 Years Later ===
After his 5 years in retirement, Ecto had grown slightly taller. His fur and eyes had darkened and he had lost his right hand. He also changed his shoes and donned a ripped cloak.
== Transformations ==
=== Super Ecto ===
As Super Ecto, Ecto's body proportions and attire remain unchanged. His fur turns a brilliant gold and his green streaks turn red. His eyes also turn red, much like those of Super Sonic. Surrounding him is a lime green aura that can change size and shape, seemingly at random. His speed and stamina are greatly enhanced, and he can take a lot more damage.
=== Hyper Ecto ===
As Hyper Ecto his fur flashes the colors of the Super Emeralds. His eyes turn pure white and an aura that has no discernible colour surrounds him. His speed and stamina are even more enhanced than in his super form, and he can breathe underwater.
=== Chaos Ecto ===
As Chaos Ecto his fur turns a brilliant blue and glows very brightly, his green streaks become gold. His eyes stay as the regular Super State red. His aura also changes colour, becoming a radiant magenta. His speed and stamina are nearing the conceptual limit, and he cannot die in any way while in this form.
=== Miracle Ecto ===
As Miracle Ecto, Ecto’s fur becomes a dazzling orange while his green streaks become purple. His eyes retain their electric blue. His speed and strength are equal to a super form, but he can also control time.
=== Overlord Ecto ===
When Ecto harnesses the power of the Overlord Diamond, purple armour covers his body. In addition, he grows horns and his eyes become red. His armour protects him from most harm and his sword becomes supercharged with power. He can destroy entire planets.
=== Dimensional Ecto ===
When Ecto achieved his Dimensional form, his fur colour remained unchanged but his proportions didn't. He gains wings and a tail, his middle quills are raised, his eyes become an amber orange, and a fractured looking aura surrounds him. His speed and strength are equal to a super form but he can also resist a lot of damage.
=== Nova Ecto ===
Ecto attains this form when he somehow finds the Mystic Star. His proportions are the same as Super Ecto, but his fur is radiant white, as are his eyes. His fur is also noticeably reflective in this form, making him look like a small star.
=== Eclipse Ecto ===
This form gives Ecto the exact same proportions as Super Ecto. However, he is surrounded by a gold aura and his fur and eyes are entirely black. His eyes are the same gold as his aura.
=== Dark Ecto ===
Dark Ecto is basically Super Ecto, but with black fur and dark grey skin. His eyes are pure white.
=== Doom Ecto ===
As Doom Ecto, Ecto's fur becomes black with red quill tips, his eyes turn pale reddish orange, and he gains wings, claws, and horns. His Chaos Power are greatly enhanced, allowing them to be used on a larger scale. He can also fly and has Black Arms level of strength. 
== Personality ==
=== Ecto the Hedgehog ===
Ecto is quiet, calculating, kind, smart, suspicious and incapable of feeling love or anything of the sort. Even though he usually boasts a smile, it hides a conflicted personality with many inner doubts and fears. He also suffers from anxiety due to his mistreatment at the hands of G. U. N. 
While Ecto has a strong sense of morals and strives to be a force for good, he can’t shake the little voice in his mind that tells him that he would do better as a villain. Ecto constantly has to fight or bury that voice to properly function. However, sometimes he loses his hold and collapses during combat.
Ecto is also prone to panic attacks as his mind was nearly shattered when Shatter broke the world. His friends weren’t similarly affected as they hadn’t had such traumatic pasts. It is also because Ecto was standing right beside Shatter when he broke the world so Ecto was affected worst and first.
=== Dark Ecto ===
Dark Ecto is the polar opposite of Ecto. Somewhat like The Reaper, but still retaining emotions. He takes pleasure in the slaughter of people and just loves how Ecto feels at the sight of all the deaths he has caused.

== Relationships ==
=== Flame the Fennec Fox ===
Ecto is best friends with Flame and trusts him completely. In fact, Flame is one of the four living beings that Ecto actually isn’t suspicious of, the others being Rocky, Slack and Inferno. Flame will tolerate Ecto’s suspiciousness due to the fact that Ecto gave him a chance at life after he was captured and experimented on by Dr. Eggman.
=== Rocky the Raccoon ===
Ecto enjoys Rocky’s happy and optimistic nature. Rocky enjoys having the company of someone as fast as he is. When the two feel bored Rocky will challenge Ecto to a race across a large stretch of land, usually a continent or ocean. Ecto wants Rocky to not have to face the trauma that he did during his first few months of existence.
=== Slack the Sloth ===
Ecto finds Slack to be one of the most humorous people he knows. While often lethargic and slothful, Slack is capable of great things when spurred. Ecto is most impressed by Slack’s way of combining brains with brawn. Ecto believes that Slack could do even greater things if given the right reason.
=== Volt the Hedgehog ===
Volt is the arch-enemy of Ecto, being the clone of the heroic hedgehog. Ecto wants nothing more than to have Volt locked away forever so he can’t damage the world any more. Volt however, has proven difficult to defeat. Being nearly identical to Ecto, Volt can easily match Ecto when it comes down to combat or speed.
=== Shatter the Rabbit ===
Ecto is unnerved by Shatter’s presence and powers. Shatter wants to end the best friend of his arch-foe (Flame). While the two aren’t generally fighting each other (with Ecto and Flame fighting Volt and Shatter respectively) they battle viciously when they do fight. Something about Shatter’s presence causes Ecto to slightly lose his touch with reality and give in to his more evil natures.
=== Iggy the Mouse ===
Ecto respects Iggy as he is one of the most powerful people in the world. However, that does not change the fact that he needs to be defeated and locked away in Ecto’s mind. Iggy despises Ecto and wants nothing more than to see him and his team destroyed, at any cost. This fact has caused Ecto to adopt the mouse as his secondary nemesis.
=== Wreck the Weasel ===
Ecto views the terrorist weasel, Wreck, as an adversary that needs serious help. Being the most insane member of Team Zeta, Wreck is a force to be reckoned with. Ecto thinks that Wreck is the least far gone in terms of evilness in Team Zeta and that there is still hope for him. After his first encounter with the weasel Ecto learned to avoid the bombs at all costs.
=== Sonic the Hedgehog ===
Compared to Sonic, Ecto is rather unknown. As Ecto prefers to help in ways that no one else notices, Sonic rarely is even aware of his presence. When Sonic is aware however, he takes note of the fact that Ecto is adept at improvising in difficult situations. For example, during the Metal Virus, Ecto had to take into account that there were too many zombots in the city for him to hold off entirely. Therefore, Ecto just slowed down the zombots that were going to get in Sonic’s way. Sonic thought it was luck, but it was Ecto quietly pulling the strings.
=== Metal Ecto ===
Ecto is wary of his robotic double, mainly due to the fact that Metal Ecto is a stronger being altogether. Despite this, Ecto constantly trash-talks him in combat. Ecto uses this to hide his innate fear of the robot. While battling, Ecto has noticed that his metallic copy mimics his fighting style. Ecto is quite frankly creeped out by this as he thought that only Neo Metals can copy stuff like that. 
=== Soot the Hedgehog ===
Ecto and Soot have a complicated relationships to say the least. The evil hedgehog was created with the sole purpose of annihilating Ecto. Soot tends to skip the banter and jump right into battle, a trait that often leaves Ecto staggering behind. The two hedgehogs are sworn enemies and will attack each other on sight.
=== Savage the Hedgehog (Stryamaker) ===

=== Rush the Hedgehog (Stryamaker) ===

=== Lancer ===
Ecto and Lancer's relationship is very complicated especially since they first met when Ecto fell through a hole through space-time and crashed through Lancer's ceiling and almost blew up several universes by destabilizing reality. Lancer gets along surprisingly well with Ecto even though they seem like the type of people to not really like each other and Lancer even sometimes buys Ecto for a quick assassination and even gave him a phone to his own personal hotline signified by the silver lined black phone with a golden scorpion inscription on the back meaning Lancer trusts Ecto at least more than the average hired mercenary. Ecto also appreciates Lancer's understanding on how he still struggles with all the trauma, mental torture, and the excessive amounts of physical abuse done to him by the hands of G.U.N and because Lancer responded to learning about his mistreatment by annihilating several facilities free of charge. They're both close associates, contractors hired for their hitman skills, and raised to be killers by secret government organizations with Ecto belonging to G.U.N and Lancer being raised by APS and generally tend to like each other's presence and work together better than other people.
