Many think of her as a classic bombshell character, however, Light is in fact very intelligent. She simply prefers to use her quick-wits on her feet, much like her papa, Sonic the Hedgehog.

She may not be the best fighter, but she is agile and knows her way through tight spaces, thanks to her treasure hunting expeditions.

Winter was left to fend for himself in Spiral Hill Village and suffered humilation at the hands of bullies, which led to him developing life-long trust issues and troubles making friends. Thankfully, local heroes Tangle and Whisper took him in as their own and raised him in a loving home. Winter now is still cold and distant, careful not to trust others in fear of reprecussions. However, he has learned to be caring and is exceptionally protective of his friends and families at the Restoration and Spiral Hill alike.

Since she is still a young child, Lustre is very active and energetic, described as hyper by the others. She is loud and always excited, and a bit of a daredevil with a heart that seeks crazy adventures. However, she listens to reason and still cares for her friends, especially Winter, who has been around ever since she was born.

THE ANTIHEROES
Olivia the Jackal
Age: 17
Gender: Agender, Gendervoid, Demi-girl (She/Them/It)
Sexuality: Pansexual
D.O.B: 7th of November, 2018
Parents: Infinite the Jackal (deceased) and Gadget the Wolf (deceased)
Bio: Olivia was not born; she was a creation of the Phantom Ruby due to Infinite and Gadget being unable to have their own children through humane means. Olivia, as a child, was rather innocent and really enjoyed lullabies and bedtime stories, which her parents gladly provided her with. Her happiness did not last, however, as during a devastating attack launched by Dr Eggman, Infinite and Gadget were killed. This left Olivia at the mercy of the Jackal Squad, her packmates that did not care for her existence. Due to their negligence, Olivia grew up to become more sour and distant from others, having a dark and dry sense of humour, constantly comtemplating sadistic thoughts and is now desensitized to expressing strong emotions other than frustration. She did, fortunately, inherit Infinite’s Phantom Bracelets, which allowed her to manipulate the power of the Phantom Ruby. After running away and befriending Light, Olivia has learned to be more open and struck out on her own. She would go on to meet Typhoon and working alongside him has once again opened her heart to a more innocent side of life.
Typhoon the Hawk
Age: 17
Gender: Transmasculine (He/Him)
Sexuality: Bisexual
D.O.B: 21st of March, 2018
Parents: Jet the Hawk and Wave the Swallow
Bio: Formerly named Aethia, Typhoon is a transgender male who works with his family, the Babylon Rogues, in daring raids. Typhoon is confident and cocky, skilled with Extreme Gear Boards (like the other Rogues) and machetes and highly competitive by nature, however, when it comes to supporting others he is very modest and humble. But that doesn't mean he plays by the rules. It was during a night where he challenged himself to a solo raid that he encountered a young jackal, Olivia, and the two stayed in touch due to a mutual fascination. Now Typhoon and Olivia are unstoppable together and Typhoon is on his way to the top of the world and he's not slowing down for anyone or anything.
I’m sorry I’m like- flooding you with questions- ;-;
But here’s the deal. In my Sonic au (@sonicrewrittenau), Starline replaced Eggman and became the new villain of the world, but Sonic’s daughters and the new generation of heroes (The Restoration) are fighting against him.
I wanna redesign canon!Starline to look more evil; so when you look at him, you know he’s not a force to be reckoned with. Except um…I have no idea how to make him look more evil.
You got any ideas or tips? Heck, I’m even happy for you to give me a whole design ;-;
Oh, don't worry about flooding my inbox. I leave my asks open because I enjoy interacting with others on here!
Now, I must say that I find this AU of yours quite intriguing!
I am currently preoccupied with other art projects, but that won't stop me from giving you some advice ;
You will want to find a good balance between extra menacing & iconic appearance!
If you stray too far from Starline’s original design, he will no longer be recognizable. But if you make the changes too subtle, the added details will have little to no effect. It will take trial & and error, but with time, you will find a balance.
If you are seeking inspiration on how to make him look more menacing, I recommend taking notes/inspiration from his concept designs!
Prototype design for Rewritten!Starline is here, what do you think?
Gave him Movie!Eggman’s look, I think it did the trick. His perm, glasses, spurs and collar stayed; and his coat is supposed to look like the one he had in IDW. As for his Gloves and the weird eye? Well…it’s kinda a surprise you’ll find out in the final design! :3
Rewritten!Starline is here! And he has one hell of a story.
We all know why he made Project Imposter; to end the “Sonic Cycle”. But here? In Sonic Rewritten? He didn’t have what he needs to make Surge and Kit, so he went way lower than he should’ve. He planted bombs in Sonic and Shadow’s home and BLEW THE PLACE TO THE GROUND.
Shadow escaped with a few bruises and scratches. Sonic…lost a leg. Wanna know the best part? This happened on Light and Hope’s 16th birthday.
Hope was FURIOUS. She packed up her bags and went after Starline, seeking revenge. And she got what she wanted, but it certainly left a mark on both.
Hope left Starline alive out a pity for what she did. Starline survived Hope’s attack, barely, so he added enhancements to himself to keep himself alive.
All he wanted to was end the “Sonic Cycle”. But he started something new. The “Starline Cycle”. Nothing had changed. It was Sonic and Eggman all over again…but the Restoration and Starline. And now, Starline is walking on a thin line between sane and insanity; tumbling over the edge every time he is defeated. Won’t be long before he does something desperate…
