Prologue

Prologue: characters and designs

Names and descriptions are from left to right.

A mysterious band of treasure-seeking thieves, who have existed since ancient times, with the mantle of the group being inherited from one generation to the next. Each member is a descendant of the ancient alien race of genie-like beings that got stranded in ages past.

Jet the Hawk

Cocky and brash, Jet is very arrogant, prideful, and always seeks riches and fortunes. While also the Babylon Rogues' leader, Jet rarely takes his responsibilities seriously, though he knows how to assert his authority. On numerous occasions he's shown an absolute rivalry with anyone better than him, Sonic included. This can lead to unfair decisions on his part usually in the means of winning by any means necessary.

Neon the Canary

Beautiful yet rude, how does she do it. Neon the Canary is Team Babylon's newest addition to the team as their Ex Gear specialist, replacing a once confident Wave the Swallow. Her mind isn't exactly all there as she comes off as either crazy, over dramatic, naturally immature, or sometimes a bit seductive. Combined with with extroverted nature, she's quick to jump on conclusions and thoughts without a second thought. She has a bone crushing crush on Jet the Hawk and seeks his attention 24/7. Her necklace seems to a point of interest for most, since it's contents are unknown, not because her breast are like...right there.

Storm the Albatross

In general, Storm is somewhat dim-witted and slow on the uptake, but makes up for it in raw power. He is Jet the Hawk's most loyal follower and right hand man. As such, he is always ready for Jet's assignments.

Shadow the Hedgehog

Shadow was created as the "Ultimate Life Form" by Gerald Robotnik, using the DNA of Black Doom, and is the end result of Project Shadow. The reason behind that doesn't reflect his arrogant, determined, and somewhat cold personality as he was to ultimately provide a cure to Gerald's daughter, Maria, but in the end was deemed deadly to humanity and put into stasis. Awoken by Dr. Eggman, Gerald's grandson, Shadow soon found himself working to destroy earth but in the end came to protect it. He now works for the military force known as G.U.N.

Michelle the cat

Working alongside Shadow as yet another G.U.N member, Michelle is secretly investigating anything and everything G.U.N can't confirm. This time it just happens to fall to Eggman's suspicious silence. Deemed too dangerous for social work, Michelle was placed in shadow's care to mend her hard nature, although the two seem to share the same attitude. As a kitten, she was blessed with the power of fire and as such seeks to burn anything that she dislikes, which is alot.

Silver the Hedgehog

A Knight of Kronos in-training, gifted with psychokinetic abilities 200 years from a post-apocalyptic alternate future, Silver is driven with a mission to apprehend a suspected traitor among the world of Mobius that caused the destruction of far future. As a warrior of a future deprived of hope, Silver has a strong sense of justice and it is this personality trait that motivates him to head back into the past to correct the future. This eagerness however, coupled with a strong naivety, he often jumps to conclusions and readily believes anything he is told. Thus he is prone to manipulation and making poor decisions.

This team's formation is quite unusual as no one knows where the even come from.

Kei

Originating from the unknown, Kei is the expert strategist using his superior intellect to work his way out of situations. His tone is very sophisticated and he often uses it to belittle others under him. As such he used to not being around anyone else but his team who he sees as equals. When things get tough, he has the ability to project his aura into small balls of green energy that can attack even without his command.

Fuyu

Silent but deadly, Fuyu is without a doubt a foe not to be underestimated. Her superior speed and somewhat mystical abilities make her almost untouchable on or off the racetrack. With a heart of gold, Fuyu is quick to jump anyone's rescue and will often show mercy to those she despises. This nobility often comes back to haunt her now and then but is also her strongest trait.

Infinite

Infinite is an enigmatic and mysterious, yet lethal and dark figure, cold and stern, though deeply sadistic and cruel. Combined with a calm and collected attitude, he's often the hardest to approach and yet the easiest to get to. His inferiority complex makes him completely sure of his and his team's strength, stubborn to question any perceived weakness they might have. Despite all this, he cares an extreme amount for his teammates and will rush to their aid no matter what.

The team was founded by Sonic the Hedgehog, Miles "Tails" Prower and Knuckles the Echidna to stop one of Dr. Eggman's plans for world domination, who later turned out to be Metal Sonic in disguise. With its primary members having at least one talent at which they are virtually perfect at, Team Sonic is a highly capable team who has overcome several threats to the world.

Tails

Gifted with the oddity of two tails hence his nickname, Tails maintains a steady title of the best pilot around as well as Sonic’s all time Sidekick. He is a good-natured, intelligent youth who is fiercely loyal to Sonic and his friends. Though he is at times intimidated by the obstacles he faces as a hero, he continues to press forward with Sonic as his inspiration.

Sonic

The renowned savior of Mobius who’s will of heroism has led him and his friends through the long and ongoing fight against Eggman's machines. Sonic's speed is his ultimate weapon which sometimes makes him overconfident as he assumes he can deal with things on his own. He's a born risk-taker, and not always in favor of following the rules. Be that as it may, he has a firm conviction of justice and a desire to see Dr. Eggman and all others like him stopped.

Knuckles

As the last Mobian Echidna known to inhabit the world, Knuckles takes pride in his role as guardian of the Master Emerald as well as Angel Island. Knuckles is an incredibly strong individual, but has has proven somewhat gullible over the years, with Dr. Eggman tricking him into fighting Sonic on several occasions. He is hot-tempered and quick to act without thinking, usually choosing violence over discussion. In the end, he’s loyal to his friends, if not with a little sarcasm here and there.

Korbin

This Spunky kitty is what you’d call a charmer. Cute and childish yet just as easily annoying and nerve wrecking, letting little things get to her temper, or laughing at a particularly serious situation. She makes up for this by having the most of everything on the team whether it be charisma, hope, or optimism. Her extreme speed is notable more than anything.

Spike

Like a dream, Spike has been transported to this strange world of anthropomorphic animals and has no choice but bide his time until he can get home. He usually means well and it does show but it's also obvious that he has a more modern personality to him in the form of sarcasm, friendly insults, and even a bit of mischief.

Lindsey

This cute monkey shows an acute knowledge of understanding is by far the most approachable on the team. She often switches from being nice and noble to adventurous and expecting, able to tear someone down and build them back up a moment later. Her export agility comes from years of practice, and well...she's a monkey.

"And with that the teams are set. Are you ready to experience the greatest event to hit the world of Mobius. I'm Omochao and welcome to the world Extreme racing."

It's time to Rev up you Gear!
