The.sound.of.speed

About Glam: The prodigal son of Mighty the Armadillo and Manic the Hedgehog, he was born with one brain cell that hardly finds itself being used. What he lacks in wit, he makes up for in both heart and personality, both of which are larger than life.

SODAR IS FINALLY HERE!! Ohh my little All Might looking guy, this was totally on purpose (It was not. I might re-do the colours at some point, when I figure out what makes it so sketchy to me)

Update: I just finished the final design, but I just finished this one with the old colours, so sigh

He may look pretty pissed in the art, which is kind of funny, since he's suppose to be closest to Sonic in terms of Personality.

He's a little messed up tho whenever I think about it

I picked the name Sodar since it fits with the whole Soundwave schmick Sonic got going on, another example would be Sonar.

As probably expected, he was made by B.U.L.L.E.T, the splinter organization that was made after G.U.N disbanded. Since they lost their main weapon, Shadow, they decided to make an greater, even more powerful one (By attempt).

And so was Project Primary made. They used samples of the main three random smucks, that has been a thorn in their side for quite a while. Mostly since their relations to Shadow made them notice how Profitable Sally's and Sonic's genes would be in the mix, so they tested it out.

And bam, we got Primary. Or at least that's his code name. They settled for bright, vibrant colours so he'd be unmistakable for any other mobian within the foundation.

And when they decided to get him out of the tube, they've looked over the DNA row of results, and noticed that they in fact, have not gotten the results they wanted. So what would any other scientist do? Scrap the project. [Subtle foreshadowing]

And due to coincidental plot reasons, one of the scientists decided to go deliver that child like a stork. Obviously not sharing their identity, the trio was deeply unsettled.

They had a lot of questions, especially the entire plan of making a child out of the genes for unknown reasons, which pshhh is completely irrelevant! So the scientist dipped, not sharing a thing, with the three pondering what the heck just happened, and what bullet is trying to cause.

Sally did wanted a child, while the rest weren't really ready for one, which obviously meant you'd have to throw it at them. So now that they've received their suspicious Amazon package, they renamed him to Sodar.

They didn't want to keep the lab name for obvious reasons. The name was suggested as a joke by Sonic, but the rest surprisingly went with it in the end.

The rest is Trivia, so if you're not that interested, or have been overly info dumbed, you may skedaddle as you please:

• He's about 17 years old.

• He gets along with his parents pretty well. He might have a little bit of tension with Sonic on rare occasion, due to their different sense of heroism and general morals. He gets along with Shadow and Sally just swimmingly, since they understand his strategic look on things.

• He has a complicated relationship with Mercy The Hedgehog.

• He has strangely weak nerves. Not emotionally, but as in literally not feeling pain when it should've. He's immune to stubing his foot.

• He prefers to wear monochrome because of his painfully mismatched fur colour.

• He's an extrovert and very much prefers to be around people, especially his close ones, and isn't afraid of giving his honest opinion on things.

• He's scarily opportunistic in combat. Oh someone's limping? Perfect, get them quick. Someone has lost their balance? Oh don't mind if I do. There's a blood trail? Today must be my lucky day.

• His favourite colours are minty ones, as well as white, cyan and teal, with a fondness of pastels.

• His favourite biome isn't settled yet, he loves nature as it is, and hates to damage something. No matter if Alpine, Tropical or Desert, he finds quite the vibe in each one.

• His favourite plants are poppies. As well as sunflower seeds, yum.

• He's a appalling mix of Sonic's impulsiveness and Sally's Strategic nature. He bursts in first, and makes the plan on the get-go as he gets a proper look on things.

• He may have took on Sonic's role as a hero, or like a random idolized schmick that knocks the rings out of yer local bad guy, but his morals can be...questionable. Sometimes.

• He can the deeply unsettling, as well as be the purest goofy guy you've ever found at the family dinner. He has a close bond with his cousins, since he's an only child, especially with Aspen and [Unamed Bat Child I Haven't Named Yet]. They go out together like dudes being dudes, despite one of them sticking out to a comical degree.

• He is quite emotional but does a good job managing it under control, and not give someone a free kidney removal.

• He's afraid of researching about B.U.L.L.E.T as a whole. He doesn't want to find out about things he didn't want to hear, or find out something about himself that would change everything. As well as the implications of being the scrapped project, and having a possible sibling out there.

• He hates being existential. He has enough spite for it, to want everyone to be happy.

• He inherited both Sonic's speed and Shadows chaos control. What went wrong is that he isn't immortal, or has the various benefits that Shadow does. Meaning he quite literally has a bomb strapped to his chest the entire time.

• He's got restless legs (Y'know when you keep wagging your foot or leg), and it annoys Sally for the life of her.

• He has a weird pattern of being extra more direct with people when he's alone with them.

• Yeah, he loves Red Dead Redemption 2.

• He has game nights/mornings with Aspen from time to time, depends on which cousin he feels like hanging out with. Can be a friend too!

• He finds the bread of chili dogs a teeny bit too sweet for his liking. He prefers Mexican classics like Burritos, Tacos, Pozole and perhaps sum Tamales. Anything with spice is better.

• He inherited Shadow's sense of drip.

• He has abhorrent gun aim. Never let let him get his hands on anything that requires long-range aiming.

• His equivalent of Shadows Round-house kick is a Parry.

• He often prefers Style over practicality, to the point of others commenting on it, which makes him say "If I die, I die fashionably."

• He would definitely deny or say he doesn't need protection during combat. Yes he absolutely gets mauled by the ground.

• He slides! He always got some sort of stupid sacred soap, or comically induced liquid that lets him slide for hours. Yes he does get overthrown sometimes, that's why he's so obsessed with timing and quick time events.

• He claims that Rhythm games own his soul.

• He may be able to swim, but he sure hates smashing into walls at a velocity of 260 mph. [If he had a game, you could die in those quick time events.]

• He's unlabeled, he'd date anyone who he can't deny feelings for tho.
