Christopher Thorndyke

Christopher Thorndike is one of the pilots of the battleship Blue Typhoon. He only became one when the Metarexes began to appear. And yet it’s funny that it was thanks to him that another extraterrestrial race, the Mobians, was discovered.

## Appearance

Chris is a young man with peach skin, short brown hair and blue eyes. At the age of twelve, Chris usually wore a black long-sleeved shirt with a light blue stripe on each side under a red T-shirt with white sleeves and yellow detailing, a belt hanging from the edge of his gray striped jeans, white socks, and blue and yellow stylish boots on gray sole.

## Personality

Chris is a calm and well-mannered boy, although sometimes a little energetic and adventurous. Despite being a "rich kid", Chris Very is down to earth, considers himself no different from anyone else and doesn't want to be treated differently despite being from a rich family. However, having been isolated from his parents since childhood, Chris often suffered from emotional pain and loneliness and therefore craved close companionship. Growing up, Chris became friends with several of his classmates such as Danny, Frances and Helen, but his relationships with them were not enough to cure his loneliness as he still spent most of his time at his mansion outside of school. Chris's friendship with Sonic and his friends, while it would ease his pain, but due to how close his friendship with them (especially Sonic) was, it also caused him to fall into mild depression or even cause breakdowns whenever he was afraid that they would leave him. All of this points to abandonment issues, most likely due to his neglectful parents.

Chris deeply values the bonds he forms with other people and will do anything to maintain them, especially his bond with Sonic. However, this tends to give him a reckless or selfish nature, such as when he fell into one of Eggman's traps in an attempt to help Sonic and his friends return home, or when he deliberately prevented Sonic from returning home to prevent him from abandoning him. Like Amy, Chris may be a little jealous of Sonic's freedom to do anything at any time. Despite this, Chris has a good heart and always feels remorseful when his feelings get the better of him.

## Story

His homeland, as it turns out, is the Holy Britannia Empire, where other Mobians landed after “Chaos Control”. Chris grew up with his grandfather Chuck Thorndyke, his bodyguard and butler Mr. Tanaka, and his maid Ella. He lives in a large, luxurious mansion thanks to his parents' success in their separate fields. Chris's father Nelson Thorndike is a prominent businessman who is the president of a software company, while Chris' mother Lindsay Thorndike is a movie star. Growing up, Chris barely saw his parents as they decided to focus more on their careers to give Chris the best they could. Even though his grandfather was usually there to keep him company while his parents were away, Chris became very lonely due to his parents being away and having to spend most of his time alone in his luxurious mansion as he I found it rather empty and boring. At some point, Chris became friends with Danny, Frances and Helen, who were his classmates, but his relationships with them were not enough to fix his loneliness as he still spent most of his time in his mansion outside of school.

And after all, he became the first who was able to find a relationship with the Mobians, although by that time they had already learned about Mobius a little earlier.

Late one night, Chris is awakened by the sound of a splash outside his mansion. Thinking the sound was coming from the pool, Chris ran out of the mansion to investigate, finding that Sonic the Hedgehog had landed in the pool. Without thinking for a second, Chris dived into the pool to save the drowning Sonic. From that moment on, he and other alien beasts search for the Chaos Emeralds and fight Eggman.
