Abe (AngieYaz Sonic Underground reboot)

Abe is a character featured in the AngieYaz/RoseOfSharon reboot of the Sonic Underground television series, emigrated from the Oddworld video game series. Abe is a Mudokon (the native race of the continent Mudos on the planet Oddworld) and is recognized by his species as a Messiah and as the liberator of the Mudokons. Despite Abe's skepticism and reluctance in being the "chosen one", he managed to liberate a large portion of his species from Glukkon oppression.
==Physical appearance==
Abe is distinct in the fact that his skin is a shade of purplish blue, rather than the neutral green tone of his fellow Mudokons. Mudokons are chameleon-like in nature, their skin colour reflecting their inner mood. Abe's blue skin is representative of his sadness for his race (although this was once stated in a Dear Alf to be the result of tanning). His lips were sewn together as a child by his mother Sam, the Mudokon queen, because he often cried and would have been killed for these disturbances. His stitches have since loosened by an unknown process, giving him the ability to speak once again. Even at the urging of the Masked Shaman, Abe refuses to cut them as they are the only memories he, or anyone else, has of his mother.
He has one tattoo on his chest and two scars on the backs of his hands. The two Hand Scars on his hands were obtained after he completed his trials at the Paramonian and Scrabanian Nests. Each scar depicts the trial that he went through. The Paramonian Hand Scar shows of a Paramite and the Scrabanian Hand Scar shows of a Scrab. With them, he gained the ability to transform into The Ancient Mudokon Demigod, Shrykull. The chest tattoo was granted to him by the Three Weirdos in order to heal Mudokons sick from SoulStorm Brew in Abe’s Exoddus, and was granted by The Keeper in the Necrum Catacombs in Oddworld: Soulstorm.
Abe's appearance has slightly changed across the games, for example: In the original Oddysee, his ponytail was somewhat curly and he had four fingers. From Exoddus, his ponytail was straight and his eyes were more yellow that they were in Oddysee, and his hand tattoos appear to have disappeared. In Munch's Oddysee his hand scars are changed to the Mudomo and Mudanchee symbols. In New N Tasty, Abe's skin was darkened, he had visible teeth and the space in between and around his eyes and nostrils became jade in colour. In Oddworld Soulstorm, an even more drastic design was made, with larger eyes and a smaller forehead. His ponytail is now more featherlike (apparently this was always the intention, but they weren't able to animate it well during Abe's Oddysee's development, and the change stuck until Soulstorm). His Necrum chest tattoo is now larger, and stretches further down his chest. His skin color is more universally blue.
While this article shows him with his appearance from the Oddworld video game series, in the Sonic Underground reboot he is redesigned to be more in line with the typical designs of Sonic characters and drawn in the Sonic Underground art style.
==Personality==
Abe may be clumsy, gullible, and naive, but is still a kindhearted and gentle Mudokon. He has a very cheerful and optimistic personality, and is also somewhat desensitized from being a slave, as many horrifying concepts don't upset him. An example would be in Abe's Exoddus, where he encountered a blind Mudokon, and failed to notice his sewn shut eyes, and after accidentally killing him, Abe merely felt embarrassed, only commenting that he forgot the Mudokon was blind. Abe tends to react to accidentally murdering Mudokons with a mere "oops". Abe also laughs whenever he kills a Slig or Glukkon. In Oddworld: Soulstorm, he's shown to be incredibly emotionally shaken after finding out the extent of the Glukkons' crimes against the Mudokons in the Necrum Catacombs, being consoled by a keeper as he sobbed. Despite his flaws, Abe generally is an extremely caring and considerate fellow, eager to help others in need. Despite his ditziness, Abe can at times be a genius. Under his cumbersome, gawky demeanor lies a true mastermind, inconspicuously snooping around high-security facilities and putting corporate big bads out of business, not to mention the fact he saved hundreds of slaves.
==Trivia==
*Abe could have been named after 16th President Abraham Lincoln, who emancipated slaves in the United States.
**Abe could also be based off of Abraham from the Book of Exodus.
*Abe's blue skin could be a reference to the multiple Hindu deities that share the same skin color. This design could have been chosen to hint at Abe's spirituality and holiness.
