## Biography

### Early life

Sonic was conceived in 2005 or 2006 to unknown parents, being raised by Longclaw at the age of 4-5. However, after roaming around Green Hill as usual, Sonic endangers himself and Longclaw as the Echidna Tribe attack their home. The eventual chase between the tribe and Sonic's power leads to Sonic fleeing to planet Earth whilst Longclaw guarding the portal to said location. In stress and confusement, Sonic is a lone traveller on a different planet.

### *Sonic the Hedgehog*

After his arrival on Earth, Sonic makes a living on the planet ten years later, whilst concealing himself from other people in his 'hometown' Green Hills. He'd often stalk on the Wachowski family and mess around with people, despite his feeling of loneliness is evergrowing. Following the baseball match he saw, were a kid and his group of friends cheer in victory, Sonic revisits the field only to run with his emotions running wild, causing his bio-electricity rates to explode and shut down power across the entire Pacific Northwest, which starts and unwanted search for Sonic.

Sonic later meets Tom Wachowski in person at an uncertain time, losing his rings in the process. After having begged for his help, Tom and Sonic escape the forces of Dr. Robotnik and his agent Stone, to take a 'roadtrip' to San Francisco, where his rings are to be found, meeting a roadhouse and a motel. However, along the way, Sonic and his human helper encounter Robotnik once again, following the two with various robots. They eventually thwart Robotnik's squad of Badniks and arrive at Rachel's home, where he is granted the help of his wife Maddie Wachowski.

After retrieving his rings, he reencounters Robotnik once again, engaging in a hateful race throughout Earth. Back in Green Hills, he defeats Robotnik after his blackout, being accepted and thanked by the population of Green Hills for saving their town.

Now no longer being a secret guest to the town of Green Hills, Sonic resides in the Wachowski's loft, receiving his very own room with items retrieved from his former hideout. This now makes him a 'son' to Tom and Maddie Wachowski.
