Ripple the Porcupine

Ripple the Porcupine is a recluse and psychic who currently resides in a trailer park on the outskirts of Station Square. He is 19 years old, stands 105 cm (3 ft 5in) tall and weighs 75 lbs (34 kg). He has purple and white fur, dark skin, and brown eyes. He wears white gloves, a brown belt, and black-and-white trainers. Ripple is a skilled psychic, able to see the future by smoking incense.
==Backstory==
Ripple was born to a poor family in Jamaica. He quickly gained a passion for soccer, and was often seen playing it out on the beach. When he was five, his grandfather died, leaving him the bag of mystical Ice Chips that he still carries with him to this day.
After his grandfather's death, Ripple became fascinated by the mystic arts. His mother, a keen psychic, taught him how to divinate the future by smoking incense. Ripple has since moved to Station Square and gained a living from using this skill, but still lives somewhat in poverty.
==Personality==
Ripple is very laid-back and easy-going, but when danger arises he will happily join the fight. He enjoys the simple things in life; sunsets, beach soccer, and a sun-lounger. However, after smoking incense, his personality becomes more cryptic and hard-to-fathom.
==Abilities==
Ripple has a very powerful jump that serves several applications, from hurdling obstacles that would halt other Mobians (such as Eggman robots), to climbing buildings. His Ice Chips, which he seems to have an infinite supply of, have the power to freeze anything they come into contact with, even other people. 
By smoking incense, he can see visions of future events; what he sees is beyond his control, but over the years he is reported to have predicted 9/11, the financial collapse of Apotos, and England's failure to qualify for Euro 2008.
==Weaknesses==
Ripple has no coating on his shoes to prevent him slipping on ice; hence, when he uses an Ice Chip, he can sometimes be just as disadvantaged as his opponents.
When smoking incense, he will often stay in a trance-like state for several hours; by the time he is able to reveal what he saw, it may already have happened.
