Whisper the Wolf

## Bio

**Whisper the Wolf** is a character that appears in the *Sonic the Hedgehog* series. She is a heroic anthropomorphic wolf and a member of the Diamond Cutters, a rapid-response Restoration team. She is aided by her own personal team of Wisps.

## Appearance

Whisper is an anthropomorphic wolf with brown skin and biscotti fur. She has thick black eyelashes and cloudy white fur around her eyes that resemble a mask. Her eyes are cadet blue, although they are often closed to the point of squinting. She wears light gray eyeshadow and has a long, bushy tail which ends in several tufts of fur sticking out in various directions. She also has a black nose, long-pointed ears and quite long hair that she keeps tied at the back in a ponytail with a black hair tie, save for a long, thick hair bang that covers her right eye. Her pointed cheeks are a little fluffy. Her fangs protrude from her mouth which is often in a natural frown. For attire, Whisper wears a cream-colored tube top, light gray leggings, and a dark gray cloak, in which she keeps six Wisp canisters. The cloak also has black and dark gray pockets seen on the shoulders.

Whisper wears an outfit geared towards combat. This includes dark gray arm sleeves with black elbow pads, dark gray and light gray gloves with visible dark brown claws, and dark gray knee sleeves and black knee pads. She sports military-fashioned black, dark gray, and light gray boots. She can sometimes be seen wearing her cat-like ornate mask scope, which is cream, dark gray and light gray in color. Three holes are seen at the right side of the mask and a blue "eye" on the left side (though the color of the "eye" can vary depending on which Wisp power the Variable Wispon is using).

## History

### Past

Whisper used to be part of the Diamond Cutters, an elite anti-Eggman mercenary team, working as their scout. During one mission at an Eggman base, Whisper managed to shoot down a Blaster tank that attempted to approach the base and fight the rest of the Diamond Cutters. Later, at the onset of the Eggman War, one of the Diamond Cutters, Mimic secretly betrayed the group and aligned himself with Dr. Eggman. Prior to the group's final mission, Claire Voyance, suspicious of the circumstances, told Whisper to stay back, despite Mimic's insistence that all of them would be needed on the field.

At the Eggman base that the team decided to take down, Whisper scouted the exterior but found no opposition. She kept tabs on her teammates through the video feed in their masks; soon, she saw them being led into a trap and left to die by Mimic. Despite her shock and grief, Whisper hid herself in a tree, remaining silent as Mimic attempted to lure her into the open. When Whisper refused to show herself, Mimic assumed that she had fled; to satisfy Eggman, he instead took her discarded Wispon and presented it to his new benefactor alongside his own mask. After the coast was clear, Whisper entered the facility to rescue the rest of the team's Wisps. She then returned to the Diamond Cutters' base and took up Smithy the Lion's prototype Variable Wispon. From this point onwards, with only the Diamond Cutters' Wisp partners for company, Whisper vowed never to forgive Eggman and Mimic, nor forget her fallen teammates.

## Powers & Abilities

Whisper is a capable fighter. During the Eggman War, her skills on the battlefield were enough to turn the tide of any battle.

Whisper is an expert marksman and a master of stealth, able to infiltrate areas undetected and hit distant targets with her Variable Wispon without being detected by friends or foes alike. Her natural aptitudes are further enhanced by her unique equipment. She seems to prefer positioning herself on high perches and snipe enemies from a safe distance, but is able to hold her own in melee combat as well, with or without her Wisps. She has also been shown capable of riding an Extreme Gear.

Whisper is also a trained soldier, and thus, has experience fighting in war-like situations.

### Equipment and weapons

Whisper's primary tool of choice is the Variable Wispon, a customized Wispon that can utilize the powers of more than just one Wisp, thus giving her more options during battle. However, unlike other Wispons which were designed to clear out crowds of robots, the Variable Wispon is designed for precision shooting. Whisper used to use a Wispon that would accommodate the use of her Orange Wisp's powers as a sniper weapon.

Whisper also wears a mask scope that she uses for targeting. The mask covers her right eye, but enhances her visibility in her left eye. With it, she can make pin-point shots with deadly accuracy. During missions with the Diamond Cutters, it was also networked with other Diamond Cutters masks, and can play back recordings from the perspective of all team members. It also has a built-in translator that lets her understand the Wisps' language.

Whisper also wears a utility cloak over her shoulders. It stores up to six specialized Wisp canister cartridges within it (three on each side). These canisters hold her Wisp allies. Whenever Whisper needs one of their powers, her Wisps will leave their capsules and enter her Variable Wispon. If one Wisp is already occupying the Variable Wispon and Whisper decides to change weapon functionality, they know to switch places.

As support for her Variable Wispon's Laser Mode, Whisper carries around a number of octahedron-shaped prisms. By shooting one of these prisms with her Variable Wispon's laser, she can change her laser's trajectory. She can also throw a bunch of prisms into midair, thereby allowing her lasers to ricochet between each prism and create an offensive laser grid.

## Weaknesses

Due to the trauma she had suffered from losing the Diamond Cutters to Eggman and Mimic, Whisper's emotions have a tendency to get the better of her, which almost resulted in her recklessly destroying a computer with important information on it in a blind rage. Another example was when she learned of Tangle's infection from the Metal Virus, which made her upset enough to make a fruitless attempt to run back into a town filled with Zombots that could infect her as well in tears for her friend. Whisper's emotions can also cause her to make irrational decisions, such as attempting to assasinate Doctor Eggman or using her Wisps against a Dynamo Cage-weilding Surge. Unless someone keeps Whisper in check, there could be consequences.

Whisper's mask scope and Variable Wispon can be short-circuited via a Zeti's power over electromagnetism, which can leave her unable to do anything so long as they are short-circuited. If she so happens to have her mask on or have one of her Wisps inside her weapon at the time, both of them can end up getting shocked.

## Relationships

Tangle the Lemur is, by Whisper's own admission, her first real, true friend since she lost the Diamond Cutters. The pair first met during the battle of her town, where they successfully joined forces to defeat Neo Metal Sonic and his army. After the battle, Whisper seemingly opened up to Tangle and allegedly told her a joke, although she still felt a bit uncomfortable around her. Tangle would later invite Whisper to Spiral Hill Village. While Whisper accepted the invitation, she still preferred to keep her distance from Tangle, especially when she tried to hug her. After later helping her save Jewel from the Babylon Rogues, Whisper became convinced of her friendship with Tangle.

While tracking Mimic, Whisper did not want Tangle to get involved and refused her help, arguing that it was too dangerous for her. Additionally, Tangle's antics also irritated and distracted her. When they later nearly got killed by Mimic, Whisper ordered Tangle to leave. However, it was not because of her antics or because she questioned her abilities, but because she was not ready to lose another friend. Ultimately, however, Whisper was persuaded to reveal her past to Tangle. She also agreed to accept her help. Together, they managed to defeat Mimic, and Tangle stopped Whisper from making a mistake by killing him. Since then, Whisper and Tangle have become a close-knit duo. Tangle in particular had to calm Whisper down sometimes when she was too nervous. Upon later learning that Tangle became infected with the Metal Virus (something that the lemur knew would hurt her), Whisper became extremely upset. Breaking from her usual withdrawn nature, Whisper became frantic and attempted to rush towards Tangle's location without hesitation despite the risk of coming into contact with the Glitch Virus and began crying excessively. When Tangle was later returned to normal, Whisper quickly began hugging her in happiness. Additionally, Whisper will sometimes wag her tail when Tangle is with her.

After Mimic escaped prison however, Whisper decided to track him down herself, not wanting to endanger her friends. As such, she left Tangle behind in a gloomy mood. She would rejoin the Restoration, however, and was put on the same team with Tangle. When Tangle suggested the team be named Diamond Cutters, Whisper took offense to it. She blocked out Tangle during their mission, but when they were trapped in a parallel world, Whisper confronted Tangle about it. Whisper heard Tangle's apology and realized she was only acting in good faith so they would be closer together. She forgave Tangle and they were on friendly terms again.

Although Whisper and Tangle are quite the polar opposites, with Tangle being loud and excitable while Whisper is quiet and reserved, they enjoy each other's company. Whisper enjoys Tangle's kind heart and her eagerness to make new friends. Tangle simply enjoys new friends regardless of their personalities and Whisper is no different. She appreciates Whisper's bravery and her initiative to look out for others. Due to her shy nature, Whisper does not like being put on the spot by Tangle, finding it a bit insensitive on her side. Whisper initially preferred it when Tangle did not invade her personal space with hugging either, but after growing closer together, she has opened up more to the idea and has even been the one to hug her first.

### Mimic

Mimic is Whisper's mortal enemy. However, they were originally comrades in the Diamond Cutters, with Mimic serving alongside Whisper as the group's infiltrator. Whisper in particular felt that Mimic was devoted their cause and that her friends were safe in his company. Mimic, however, eventually betrayed the Diamond Cutters and led them into an ambush set up by Dr. Eggman, which led to their deaths. With Whisper left as the group's only survivor, Mimic began to hunt Whisper. Whisper in particular kept the last recordings of the Diamond Cutters so that she would never forget or forgive Mimic. When she eventually had Mimic at her mercy, Whisper would have killed him had it not been for Tangle's intervention, who convinced her that a worse fate for Mimic would be imprisonment and knowing that he had lost to Whisper.

### Dr. Eggman

Whisper developed a personal vendetta against Dr. Eggman after he and Mimic killed the Diamond Cutters. She has hated the doctor with a passion since that incident, and can get very angry when confronted with his technology or things bearing his image. When Eggman later appeared on Angel Island after Tangle fell victim to his Metal Virus, Whisper nearly killed him while he was defenseless before Cream intervened and convinced that they still needed the doctor to stop the plague. Whisper again didn't hesitate to shoot Eggman, with her Wispon being in another plane of reality being the Doctor's saving grace.

During the Eggman War, Whisper became a symbol of hope and a threat to the Eggman Empire, repeatedly tipping the scales of battle in the favor of the Resistance. As such, Eggman recognizes the threat she poses to his plans and is serious in his efforts to eliminate her, as shown by his grisly imprisonment of her when they met in Eggperial City. Due to their past, Whisper has vowed to fight until Eggman's threat is over.
