SFS 4: Round 1, Poll 23

Astral the Prophet VS. Aster the Hybrid

Astral the Prophet

Aster the Hybrid

Remaining time: 6 days 23 hours

Astral by @bluejestar

Aster by @captainsquiddd

more info under the cut!

About Astral: Astral is the eldest son of Knuckles and hence the next-to-be Guardian of The Master Emerald. However, tragedy struck at a young age and he was attacked by an unknown creature. The attack blinded him but in its wake he developed clairvoyance. Since then Astral has taken the mantle of protecting both The Master Emerald and The Timeline, tutored by both his father and occasionally Silver The Hedgehog.

About Aster: Aster was created by Eggman Negative in his attempt to create a superweapon against his previous adversaries post-Sonic Rivals 2. After a couple of hiccups and a whole lot of confusion, Espio and Silver find themselves raising the mobian with powers undiscovered, yet familiar...Aster is stubborn, literal, and aloof--but finds quiet appreciation within the beauty of the world she's in.

[captainsquiddd]

It's up!!! Oh my gosh!!!!!!! Unreal :') !!!! plsplsps consider voting for Aster! WE HAVE MORE INTERACTIONS AND RELATIONSHIPS TO FORGE...!!!

[captainsquiddd]

What do you think of your dads as heroes, Aster?

They're nothing short of incredible! They've shared with me their mentality of sharpened discipline and responsibility. Even if I trained all day and all night for the rest of my life, I don't think I could reach their precision and power!

I don't see them in action all the time, but Otōsan feels comfortable showing me some of his kunai throwing and acrobatics. He says with enough practice, I can master his "butterfly kick"! (I think my quills weigh me down, though.)

A lot of Silver's power comes from his psychokinesis, of course, but we still don't know how much of it I have. So I focus on physical training and concentration. Lots and lots of meditation. Lots and lots of studying.

[captainsquiddd]

you’ve made it known that you don’t have any siblings but i’d like to ask if you have any cousins or aunts/uncles or even grandparents?

If I have any, I haven't met them. Otōsan is a bit cagey about his past, and dad is wholly uncertain about his. The Chaotix are about the closest I can get to relatives. I see Blaze like distant aunt, I guess. -💫

[captainsquiddd]

Having the right fuel is the only way to make something go. (They offer quite a variety here, luckily!)

I have a penchant for apples, but plenty of other foods get the job done, too. I’ve gotten earfuls back home about the importance of a well-rounded diet.

You’re gonna need it, Aster! Because the polls begin TODAY (8pm EST)!!! Please consider giving her your vote! 🥹

[captainsquiddd]

Hey Aster! Do you have any friends cheering you on at home? Or is it just your parents. Are you hoping to make some friends?

Not quite…there aren’t a lot of mobians my age who seem very interested in interacting with me in Seaside City. And the future, for the matter. It doesn’t really bother me. I see the Chaotix as family, so I hope they’re finding time in their busy day to cheer me on, heh heh. As for making friends..?

It’s a little nerve-wracking just being here, in such an odd and fresh environment. But, it’s not like anyone has been unkind…quite the opposite, actually. Perhaps this opportunity can bring more than just alternate perspectives and battle strategies. I see myself within so many new faces, why not get to know them a little?

[captainsquiddd]

Another sibling I see! There seems to be quite a few within this roster… Anyways, I’ve come to wish you a good showdown Aster, may the best kid win! - Pyrite

There’s no guessing here. You’re my dad’s spitting image! And you’re definitely right, it’s a little jarring seeing so many mobians in one place who look like Silver, in particular. I guess it’s easier to have things in common.

Thank you for your kind words, I wish you lots of luck!

[captainsquiddd]

This whole "different universes" thing is pretty trippy, yeah? Nice t' meet'cha though! The name 's Glam. Good luck on round one, I hope we'll get to face off later!

-Glam

(I had to wish Aster good luck, I been following their story for a long time. Good luck good luck!)

Trippy indeed. Thank you for your good-luck wishes! I’m Aster. You seem like a fine competitor. I like your jewelry! I don’t exactly have ears for earrings, but I find them quite charming.

🥹🥹 it’s so sweet seeing people tag along for aster’s growth, thank u sm for following along 💛💛

[captainsquiddd]

Hiiii Aster!! I hope you’re doing well and best of luck in the showdown! :DDDD

Thank you very much! I’m doing well…it is a bit odd seeing so many mobians I haven’t met, but with features I find so familiar! It’s nice getting to know everyone.

[captainsquiddd]

Have you been to the Sol Dimension, Aster?

I haven’t personally been to the Sol Dimension, but I have met Princess Blaze on occasion. She’s sort of like an aunt to me.

[captainsquiddd]

Growing up, have you heard of any villains or even met them?

I’ve been told plenty of stories, but the villainy and crime fighting was mostly left up to my parents and the Chaotix.

[captainsquiddd]

Aster, what do you think of the Eggman Empire? And what do you think of Eggman, Metal Sonic, Sage, and so on?

Anyone related to Eggman Negative has my sincerest disrespects. Filthy, rotten, slimy minds. What I’ve been told from my dad only perpetuates this image…

But…I can’t help but feel a little bad for those creations of his. Metal Sonic, and…Sage? They didn’t ask to be made in anyone’s image. Maybe they don’t want to be weapons at all.

[captainsquiddd]

A very important (and sometimes overlooked part) of training is your gear! Mine is very similar to my dad’s, because, well, my psychic powers came from him. I don’t think I need limiters quite like he does, though. It was a bit tricky to replicate the technology—but we figured an adjacent out soon enough! Future tech…I even have a custom PK mark! -💫

Asks for day two are back to being answered! Thank you so so much for the engagement and love so far, I’m having such a blast 🥹💛

[psychictimestone]

[captainsquiddd]

What do you think of the hero teams, Aster? And besides the Chaotix, which one is your favorite?

The hero teams I’ve come to know are greatly admirable! My dad tells me stories about Sonic and his friends—how he wouldn’t be where he is without the advice and guidance of the “blue blur”. There’s a lot to look up to in a figure so guided by freedom, my dad says.

Tails was the closest thing I had to a doctor growing up. And when you find a genetic copy of yourself in a lab, you need a lot of doctor visits.

Otōsan has told me a bit about Knuckles, being an old Chaotix friend and all. I wonder if it gets lonely on Angel Island…

[captainsquiddd]

Just like looking at exam scores, or being evaluated during training…so anxiety-inducing! But I won’t let the shock of so many names and faces rattle me. -💫

(@bluejestar a prophet character sounds SO NEAT!!!! maybe they & aster can bond over their future-knowledge, lol. can’t wait to meet them—and i’m looking forward to the polls!!! C’:)

Round 1 voting begins on June 3rd!

[captainsquiddd]

Hello Aster, I hope this competition is good to you - in both happiness and success.

I was wondering, though, if you had a favorite food. Do you have a story to share about it? Or do you have a favorite person to share this - or any - food with?

- Lavender

[Aaah good luck to you and Aster! I hope it's a lot of fun! And also Aster is super cute!]

Growing up, my dad fed me aaanything apple flavored. We got a little creative finding ways to eat them! Caramel apples, apple pie, apple cookies, apple fritters, apple tarts, apple crisps, apple cakes…so many apples…I’m surprised he never got sick of them.

tysm eeek!!! lavender is sosososo adorable i can’t wait to see them in the showdown 🥹
