https://melodiesmods.dreamwidth.org/4309.html (game history up until November 2016)

Around this time, Sonic was crystalized, catching him off-guard as the planet Crystallis crystallized further. He would stay this way for months before being freed just prior to the Heroes of Light's final encounter with Garland. The heroes made a valiant last stand, battling Garland before, ultimately, it was Kalki who slew Garland. Kalki herself was killed, but her power and essence was transferred to Ramza, who used the new power to transform Crystallis into a crystalized wasteland. The Heroes attempted to escape, but were knocked out of the air and put into a five-year stasis. After being freed from this, Sonic found himself separated from most of the other heroes save for three others, exploring a part of this new world until the means were found to reunite others, discovering that four of their number had been turned into Arch-Fiends by Kalki.

After defeating the four, with two of them rejoining the heroes, Sonic and the other heroes made their final stand against Kalki. The long and dangerous fight saw the heroes split up between dealing with Kalki and the personification of the Calamity itself. However, not even bonding with and using the dragon Bahamut was enough for Kalki to try and stop the heroes and, ultimately, Kalki and the threat of the Calamity came to an end, the heroes coming out victorious. With the heroes allowed to return to their old worlds if they wished, Sonic decided to do so, continuing his adventures.


Personality:

Sonic the Hedgehog is the super fast, super cool, blue hedgehog with a ‘tude! Okay, enough bad descriptions - Sonic is probably the idea of being part of the 90s: all attitude, laid back, barely a care in the world and plenty of attitude to go around. He’s mostly a loner, willing to do things on his own and not wait for others. This is mostly because of his impulsive way of thinking - he doesn’t like to stand still and would rather keep moving. Of course, this impulsive way of thinking has lead to him getting into trouble a number of times, the biggest one being his accidental freeing of the Deadly Six in Sonic Lost World by destroying the item Eggman was using to control them. This lead him to insist on having Dr. Eggman help him and Tails when Tails could have handled things on his own, leading to the two friends to fight.

His "cool blue" attitude is both a source of laughs and annoyance towards both friend and foe. While he isn't prone to his American-styled "Ro-Butt-nik" namecalling, he will make jabs towards his more antagonistic faces, such as referring to Knuckles as a "Knucklehead" or, for the longest time, calling Shadow "faker". Of course, even Eggman doesn't escape unfazed, being called "a giant talking egg" and "Egghead", among others. He's not as cruel towards his more closer friends, but he has his moments, such as Sonic's "I don't have time for this" look and brushing off of Tails' amazement over the Egg Carrier's transformation and Sonic's usual brush offs towards Amy Rose, whether it's holding the girl back as he's trying to talk while she's trying to hug and kiss him or just running off in the other direction. He'll also make fun of the situation when he feels he has it under control almost to the point of being arrogant or even boastful. Even when the situation is dire and Sonic probably has no chance of survival, he'll find some way to put in a snarky bite into his dialogue.

However, he does have a number of positive traits. Despite his loner nature, Sonic hates to see others hurt and will take time to comfort them. He also realizes that ignoring the problem isn’t the way to solve things, as he argued with Tikal over Chaos’ feelings of rage after he became Perfect Chaos, telling her that just resealing Chaos without calming him will only lead to him still being angry. He’s also something of a nature lover and will fight to protect or reclaim ravaged areas, even taking the time to sit back, relax and enjoy the beauty of it all. He does, though, realize that things change and they need to for things to keep growing and continue to move on, which easily fits in with his attitude of being always on the go.

As his Sonic Adventure and Sonic Adventure 2 theme points out, he has a “steadfast heart of gold”. He runs on the idea that he does things he feels is right, even if it means being wrong for it. This can go as far as being “the bad guy” as he told Merlina he was willing to do anything to stop the powermad King Arthur, even if it meant being the bad guy in the story. Of course, as pointed out above, even this can turn disastrous. He rarely, if ever, mulls on these decisions, feeling that looking back on the past will only slow you down, and he’ll charge headlong into the consequences once his mind is made up.

Another thing that can be seen with Sonic is the fact that he's a wonderful friend to everyone he meets and he has a major capacity for forgiveness, even if it's subtly shown. Sonic greatly cares for his friends and will go out of his way to protect them and is even shown to be distraught when he fails to do so - this is especially shown throughout the Lost World game, as Tails gets captured in a trap and Knuckles and Amy seemingly perish as the world is drained of life. The hedgehog rarely shows grudges towards others - despite those like Knuckles and Shadow trying to kill him in their first encounters with Sonic, the misunderstandings and grudges of the past tend to fade away quickly once everything's laid bare, though Sonic's quick to rib and tease them for their actions. As well, he also shows compassion for others in pain; in Sonic Adventure, it is obvious that Sonic doesn't want to just cram Chaos back into the Master Emerald once the truth of his anger becomes evident and in Sonic and the Secret Rings he forgives Shahra, the Genie of the Ring, for her betrayal by wishing for a mountain of hankerchiefs for her to use as she cries over her actions.

Sonic’s single amazing trait is his amazing willpower. Sonic refuses to give up or to run away. If there’s a will, there’s a way, from forcing himself to use Chaos Control on a fake Chaos Emerald, to swallowing evil essences while as a werehog, to being beaten black and blue from a now-powermad Merlina, to pushing himself to keep going despite having everything fall apart on him. As long as some sort of injustice is going on, Sonic will not back down or surrender. He’ll keep fighting until he wins or he dies, finding no regrets as that just means his story came to an end on a high note.

CRAU developments: At most, Sonic knows and understands that everything can end in an instant and has doubled down on his thoughts that someone trying to create a world of perpetual peace and stagnation is both boring and wrong (the latter more than the former). He'll gladly stand up against anyone who will think that such things are worth ravaging worlds for.

Key themes: Freedom, Adventure, Ever-moving

Main Motivation: To seek out adventure and defend anything and everything from evil.

Skills:

Sonic had incredible super speed, the upper limits never been fully catalogued though mach one is easily reachable for him. He's shown to be fast enough that he can run on water and defy gravity by running on walls or with loop-de-loops. He's agile enough to dodge, sidestep, parkour, flip and otherwise get out of any situation. He is also shown to be an expert rail grinder, able to grind fast and stable enough to hop from rail to rail and even stay on rails when going on loops. With the Speed Boost, a blue aura forms in front of Sonic, allowing him to bust through obstacles or launch them at targets in front of him.

With his speed, he can curl up into a ball, tearing into his foes with a Spin Attack. He can spin on the ground and launch himself with the Spin Dash and launch himself quickly at his opponents with the Homing Attack, striking with perfect accuracy.

Sonic has access to various jobs from the world of Crystallis. However, without his Crystal and thanks to the Void, Sonic is stuck with the Onion Knight and Bearer of Wisdom. As an Onion Knight, Sonic gains the strengths and weaknesses of the multiple jobs he held (in this case, the potential of the Santa Claus job, the speed and agility of the Ninja job and the strength and defense of an Engineer), can use any weapon and armor from those jobs and can use ten attacks of his choosing - creating duplicates with the Ninja's Clone ability or strike with the elemental Ninjutsu skills, Magitek Knight's devastating Electrostatic attack, the Air Bender's Air Punch, the teleporting Flash spell and the time-halting Stop spell from the Time Mage, the hammerspace-like Toy Bag and the All-Knowing List from the Santa job, the Particle Thrower from the Ghostbuster job and finally Excalibur Sonic from Sonic's own personal job, transforming him into the alternate world King Arthur. With the Bearer of Wisdom, a job created through the remains of a Princess Zelda, Sonic gains access to her light magic. He can sense darkness and evil, imbue weapons with holy magic, heal and create barriers, create swords and bows and arrows with holy magic, shroud and fire bolts of light.

In times of duress, Sonic can unleash a Limit Break. In his case, it’s activating his iconic Super Sonic form, making him much more faster and virtually invincible… for a short time, though.

Item: His iconic shoes and gloves

Sample: Sonic took notice of the train around him and the various people on-board. With everyone so down, it seemed like he came on-board at the worst time. Upon discovering some notes revealing the planet destroyers that attack Osiris, the hedgehog understood what was going on.

"Huh, so another 'Entity from elsewhere destroying worlds'? Sounds like I got my work cut out for me." the hedgehog said. "But, I can't work like this while everyone's all bummed out. I'm gonna need to figure out a way to get everyone's spirits up and running again."

He figured the best thing to do was to make his favorite meal - chili dogs. Everyone loved chili dogs, right? Of course, he's missing something.

"Alright, anyone out there know where you guys hid the chili? Hedgehog can't make chili dogs without them!"
