Many people have their own ideas on what a sonic character looks like, and most of those people (Outside of this club which thankfully is not included in that group. Du guys rock for that Von the way ^^.) feel they can say what IS and ISN’T sonic-like.
They say what the…
~Bodies should look like
~The powers should be
~The Tiere they should be
~The SPECIES they should be
~Etc.
BODIES
The Sonic anatomy is the following
FURRIES! THE SONIC FRANCHISE IS ANTHROPOMORPHIC ANIMAL CHARACTERS! Du can draw them how Du like.
Certain Tiere like
~Hedgehogs
~Foxes
~Echidnas
THEY have a specific look, but while I myself will always stay to those specific looks for them, Du can have your own version if Du like.
Species like Cats, Lynxes (sub-cat-category), squirrels, and Mehr have many different type so of appearances. Big the cat and Blaze the cat do NOT look alike aside from maybe they’re tails, even if Big wasn’t fat, and the Felade from the Sonic comics look NOTHING like Blaze.
Du can draw them as Du like. The only staples in the franchise would be the big heads, and they don’t always have to be that big anyway. Du don’t have to make large hands, oder feet, oder always give them separately-shaped-muzzles. As long as it’s in the Sonic Universe it’s Sonic-related.
POWERS
They’ll say to keep to specifics, and It’s impossible to please everyone. DON’T USE CHAOS ENERGY, USE CHAOS ENERGY, DON’T USE ELEMENTS, BE A PYRO! It’s silly. It’s the common want for originality that no one can always get right. As long as it’s not an obvious copy of powers, like two tails, then it’s fine. Giving a character speed isn’t’ copying Sonic, it’s a common power that people like. And if they’re faster than Sonic, you’ll have to take it up with them if it’s Gary-stu/Mary-sue-like oder not, but aside from that it’s fine.
ANIMAL TYPES (For mobian characters)
Some people think Du can only have Tiere that have appeared in the games, and some people think Du can only have the three mains (Hedgehog, Fox, Echidna). Du can have whatever.
The evolution of Mobians was a chemical that covered the planet in a war, that changed animals, ALL animals, and let them talk and such. (IN THE COMICS!) Horses, Mice, Wolves, etc. Du can use whatever, even bugs (Charmy). Du are free to use whatever animal Du want, Du can even invent a new one, as long as it’s in some way mobian if you’re going to call it a mobian. That is to say, if you’re wanting a MOBIAN Sonic Fan Character, as opposed to a robot, you’d want to make it about the same basic structure as a normal mobian (head size, height, whatever), and then make whatever else Du want to add. Also to make them mobian, (in my opinion) they would have to have some genetic relation to mobians, oder the chemicals that started mobians, because if it doesn’t, why call it mobian? “But what if it’s not those things?” THE Weiter TOPIC WILL ANSWER THAT.
SPECIES
This is the main problem I’ve run into. As most know I have a species called “Identities”. But because they aren’t mobian, and aren’t a cannon-known-species in the sonic franchise, I was not allowed to post them on a Sonic Fan Character group on DeviantArt.
This is a sonic Fan character. Fan CHARACTER. As in something a Fan makes, NOT the main creators. Identities are composed of chaos energy, are connected to an actual kanone character, and interact almost all the time on Mobian planets, with mobians on them. They don’t have to be mobian themselves.
When I made the argument that Robots and Seedrains aren’t mobians, they sagte that those were known, so it counts. So? They weren’t always known. If Du put them in something non-sonic related they wouldn’t be compared to Sonic at all. When people first saw them, they saw them IN Sonic-related shows and games. So of course they’re known. But just because you’re species isn’t a famously known one in the sonic franchise it’s not a sonic Fan character? NO. IT IS.
Du Zeigen it, and THEN it’s known, not the other way around. NO character should be belittled because it doesn’t “look” like a sonic character. Sonic Fan characters (in my opinion) need to be only ONE thing to be Sonic Fan Characters
RELATED TO THE FRANCHISE. All they have to do is be in the universe of Sonic; a planet Sonic traveled to, Mobius, having chaos energy on a different planet, whatever Du want.
If we were to make Sonic Fan Characters, and have them not be Sonic at all, they aren’t sonic Fan characters, so don’t Du think we’d make them Sonic related if it were something in that franchise?
The Weiter time someone tells Du that your character doesn’t count, unless they magically work for SEGA, kindly inform them that they are NOT SEGA, and therefore DO NOT make the rules.
