Talia Hale

***Talia Hale*** (Hebrew: ***Talia Heil*** - ***טַלְיָה הֲיֵיל‎***) was a guest character in ***Sonic the Hedgehog: Fangs and Speed***. She was an Evolved Werewolf that was born to a centuries-old and highly esteemed Werewolf bloodline, the Hale Family. Talia is the sister of Peter Hale, the mother of Laura Hale, Derek Hale, and Cora Hale.

## Early Life

Talia was born as a first child of unknown Hale Alpha Werewolves on the outskirts of South Island, Mobius. After their parents died, Talia inherited their Alpha status and became the Alpha of the Hale Pack. Talia took Peter under her wing, making him her first Beta. Talia was Peter's guardian for a significant portion of his early life and grew up alongside her children, though he was quite a bit older than they were.

Eventually, she met and presumably fell in love with a man who would eventually become the father of her children, and she gave birth to Laura Hale, Derek Hale, and Cora Hale in turn, each of whom became a Beta Werewolves themselves.

At one point, Talia encountered Doctor Eggman while he was hurting citizens in the urban area of the South Island. Talia confronted Eggman and demanded him to stop, but he attacked her. Talia immediately fought back and defeated him. Since then, a conflict began between the two.

One day, when Talia was with Peter, Cora and 7 unnamed relatives at home, and Derek and Laura were in the woods, Doctor Eggman snuck up to the back side of Hale House with two of his accomplices with a barrel full of gasoline, they poured the gasoline around the house. Then they took a lighter and lit the gasoline, and the whole house started to catch fire. Almost everyone who was inside, including Talia, was burned to death.

## Throughout *Sonic the Hedgehog: Fangs and Speed*

Following her death 6 years before the beginning of ***Sonic the Hedgehog: Fangs and Speed***, Talia has appeared only in her son, Derek's, flashbacks.

## Appearance

Even though she was in middle-aged at the time of her death, she was still in great physical shape, with a tall and fit body. Since she possessed the ability to shapeshift into a true wolf, she typically wore loose dresses that she could easily slip in and out of, giving her the ability to strip down to transform when necessary and quickly dress herself once she shifted back. Her style of dress gave her an appearance of a casual yet regal woman.

## Personality

Talia was a well-respected and accomplished Evolved Alpha who was known for being both tough and fair when it came to Werewolf politics.
