This is a blog dedicated to The Products of Predator AU. Ran by @theleviathanslair and @kayawatts.
Hey! I am The Leviathan. Though I also go by Blue or Ava! I am the owner of this AU, it started as a fun way of me building a story for my fankids, which then expanded it into much more!
I am a lover of all things creative; and I am forever improving on my digital art skills. Outside of this AU I have countless original characters, fankids and AUs; even ones unrelated to Sonic. Some of the AUs you'll see will be built off of this one, as what if scenarios.
This blog will be where me and Kaya store lore, character information and more! Though you are always free to ask questions, which we absolutely encourage!
All art relevant to The Products of Predator characters will be on their respective Toyhouses, you can find our Toyhouse links on our main blogs; and down below. Anything to do with me and my answers will be in blue.
Hello everyone! My name is Kaya Watts, and I'm the co-owner of The Products of Predator AU. I primarily work as the writer, though I also help smooth out plot holes and contribute artwork when needed!
I’m a passionate and creative world-builder, and I’m proud to own several of the AU’s characters <3 I'm so excited to share this AU with everyone and I hope you like it just as much as me and Ava do.
Feel free to ask me, or any of the characters anything! My text colour here is green, that's how you'll know I'm writing ;)

TPOP: Main Timeline
The Main timeline of Predator. The timeline you'll see the most of here. It follows the main heroes, their families and more!
It features major story points such as: Predator's Destruction, The First Corruption, Robotnik's Heir, Future Heroes.
TPOP: Predator's Hero
A what if timeline where the lab was never destroyed. Exploring the effects and destruction Predator ended up causing if it stuck around.
TPOP: Future Generation
A following of the main timeline, further on in the future with the next line of generations.
Predator is an underground laboratory network built on ambition, secrecy, and an insatiable hunger for power. For years, the organisation operated unnoticed, stealing research from the ARK, G.U.N, and Dr. Starline to fuel their experiments. Their hierarchy is controlled by a council of power-hungry leaders, each competing for resources, influence, and dominance over the others. Unable to obtain the overwhelming power they desired for themselves, the council turned to creating beings capable of containing it. These creations, known as Vessels, were engineered as living weapons, each designed to channel extraordinary abilities. Some experiments failed; others succeeded. Regardless of the outcome, every Vessel existed for one purpose: to serve as a tool of war.
Children raised within Predator’s sectors were forced into brutal tests of strength and intelligence. Those who excelled earned funding for their division; the weakest were discarded. Many were trained to fight in the underground arena, where among them, V-008 “Crow” rose to infamy as the undefeated “Predator of the Ring,” overthrowing the long-standing champion, V-002 “Aura.” Predator’s downfall began when the first Vessel: V-001 “Zero,” a stolen jackal child, vanished without a trace. The Chaotix Detective Agency was hired to investigate and spent years chasing dead ends until an anonymous tip led them to Predator’s doorstep. Using his invisibility, Espio the Chameleon infiltrated the facility, only to disappear for weeks. When he finally returned, traumatised and silent, he carried a small child with him: V-007 “Saturn.” With Espio slipping into mutism and the case collapsing, the investigation was handed off to G.U.N, who spent years struggling to uncover the truth. Everything changed when V-009 “Dove” lost control of her powers, triggering a catastrophic explosion within the facility. Team Dark infiltrated the ruins, retrieving an exhausted Dove and a fiercely protective Crow. They marked the site for G.U.N forces, leaving the remaining Vessels still trapped beneath the rubble.
Zero was only one of many victims. Predator had stolen children from across the world, their laboratory network stretching into hidden research stations disguised in plain sight. Some children were transformed into Vessels; others were subjected to experimentation. All were victims of the council’s obsession with control. In the Products of Predator AU, Sonic the Hedgehog was one of the original stolen children. Experimented on as a Chaos Subject, individuals altered to withstand and manipulate Chaos Energy, he eventually escaped. Trauma buried the memories deep within him, only resurfacing years later when Shadow the Hedgehog brought Dove and Crow into his life. This history explains Sonic’s extraordinary durability and power, speed and strength forged not only by destiny, but by survival.
Infinite Silver AU:
Sonic Forces retold! Silver the Hedgehog had spent years in the past. Saving people, doing good and spreading hope with no results. Bad future upon bad future driving him further into desperation and self hatred until he feels forced to use alternate methods. He ends up using the Phantom Ruby, a gem created by Dr Eggman, slowly allowing it to corrupt him so he can become strong enough to create the future he always dreamed of, that he believes he deserves after suffering over it for so long. His mind becomes twisted and he starts seeing all actions as able to ruin what he built, both good and bad. Now he has come back from his own timeline to a time he had already been, taking on the moniker “Infinite”, so he can erase the past with all its imperfect beings and replace them all with perfect clones with the Phantom Ruby so that his future can never be ruined by the actions of flawed lifeforms again, wearing a mask that hides his face and his own sadness, anger and disgust in his own actions. Will Sonic be able to bring out the good he still sees in his friend? Or will Infinite destroy himself in the seemingly endless battle against the resistance, leading to an endless cycle of darkness for Silver.
We know this is the end of the road for us. But thank you so much to everyone who got us this far! We never aimed to get past the first round but it has been such a blessing knowing others voted for us because they found our AU interesting :)
Good luck to @jesterjesteringjesterly for being our last opponent, we love your AU so much you have no idea haha. I know this is it for Predator; and thank you to all our other opponents for being great competition.
If we somehow miraculously get through. I will genuinely be shocked.
We've reached the halfway mark of our adventure. Thank you everyone for joining this ride, there's a lot more fun to come!

So who are the villains and heros of the story then? and what is predators hero? sounds interesting.
Villains and Heroes depend on the story. Some stories are still WIPS as we plan to expand on many characters and narrow their stories down into certain groups. World building!
However I can go into Dove and Mira's story as an example!
In Doves' story the main villain is the Predator Lab itself. The story is explored with how long it has truly been around. The main villains for Dove are the other survivors of the lab. These are the kids in the Ruins, like Zero and Lithium. It is all about the consequences of what happened and playing into their now supposed normal lives, as well as adventuring into the distant future.
Mira's story is her following in her fathers' footsteps. Trying to be a hero like Sonic and Shadow. Her role is to take down the villains, this includes Sage and Dr. Eggman and his Empire, as well as those built and created around them like Raven and Pigeon, and with help from Abyss and Ulla whom are Darklings. So there is a little bit of Black Doom in there too!
Essentially, Mirage is just Sonic.
Though there are many different stories as we are still building and exploring them ourselves. For example: The Sol Empire, exploring into the royalty and future based consequences along with the rise of Iblis, and Emeralds Rest and Angel Island, exploring into the newfound Diamond Cutters and helping with continuing the work of the Chaotix Detective Agency.
There is also the story for the Future Generations with the "Prophecy Children" and less-important side plotlines for those who are partnered up like the adventures of Zipp and Mizu!
As of currently, Dove is the hero to the villains; Zero, Lithium, Jupiter, Aura, Emerald, Anubis, Adiris, Patches and Crow. As well as those like Dr. Eggman and Sage; but they are not on her mandatory fighting list. She works alongside Saturn and River.
Mirage is the hero to the villains; Abyss, Ulla, Pigeon, Raven, Sage, Dr. Eggman and his Empire of robots, those like Metal.
Roxanne is the hero to the villains; Crow, Solar, Iblis and Saturn. As well as those who reside in the Ruins; Zero, Jupiter, Emerald, Anubis, and anyone else who poses a threat; Abyss, Ulla, Sage.
Now onto Predator's Hero!
Predator's Hero is an alternate timeline to The Products of Predator. It is a "what if" scenario where the laboratory in this timeline was never destroyed and the kids were never found and saved.
There is still a whole lot more planning for this as it is not our main timeline, but what we can share that is confirmed is that it follows the path of our villains instead of our heroes. Dove is a villain who is teamed up with Anubis and Roxanne is also a villain! Though, she is on separate terms to those two. Most of the lab children were eliminated or locked away forever.

Identity Recode AU:
In this Au a young boy found a sonic game at his door step, he didn't think anything of it and booted up the game. Everything was fine untill he lost his last life on the Tails level. Now he's awoke into a strange room of yellow and what's this.. these memories are not his.. or are they? Anyways that's all I got for the story for now, plus I don't wanna spoil too much.
We're off once more on our journey! It's been a blast getting to see so many worlds, but we need to narrow the search for our destination (though that doesn't mean we have to stop visiting those worlds <3). The World Map has now been updated for Round 2!

Guess you beat the Overclocked AU, guys! Congrats on the win!
AH! Thankyou so much! And it was a good match!! We appreciate this so much! We did not think we'd make it past the first round LMAO. But we are so thankful for everyone who voted for us. Our asks are still open ready for 2nd round!
Wouldn't Solar and Anubis technically be brothers? Since Solar is just Iblis reincarnated and Anubis is Mephiles.
I can see where your coming from!
But no.
Anubis and Solar's consciousness are completely separated from Iblis and Mephiles'. It is more-so their powers being trapped within these kids' bodies, rather than them being the kids; unlike with Roxanne whom is the reincarnation of Light Gaia.
After the main events of the Sol Empire. Iblis' mind gets trapped within the Sol Emeralds and the powers from Iblis stay within Solar.
Anubis has DNA from Mephiles (and Infinite but that is not important in answering your ask) and therefore has acted as a host to contain his mind and soul, much like the Sol Emeralds have done to Iblis. They do stay stuck together, but they are not the same.
There is definitely a possibility to draw Mephiles and Iblis' mind and powers out of Anubis and Solar; and the Sol Emeralds to reform Solaris as a whole! But as stated above, Solar and Anubis are two very separate characters with their own lives, thoughts, wants and needs. Who have had Iblis and Mephiles guiding them, even if said guiding hasn't been the most positive, to enhance their own desires.

Sonic Overclocked AU:
The Spirit Sapphire. A gem of similar power and status to the Phantom Ruby, though of decidedly different effect. It is said to draw out the truest potential of its wielder, transforming them into a higher form that represents their soul and their purest self.
Sonic the Hedgehog isn't a hedgehog. He's a rebellious hedgehog-like badnik, the first ever made, and he is the current guardian of the Spirit Sapphire. Not that anyone knows this. After all, how could someone who's always so true to himself be hiding something so major?
Eggman used to view his badniks as his family, long before the world feared him. Not for a long time. Not since the loss of his first one.

Blue here! We have recently entered an AU Showdown! Both creators of this AU are very occupied with real life/other things, therefore drawings may not happen. However, we are happy to open asks and answer anything we can!
Some important information I feel is good to share!
The AU itself mostly focuses on before the timeline of the games and comics as well as after. It has a relevant storyline plot for before and after for world building.
Yes this does count as a Fankid AU for that matter! The aspects of the games and comics are still relatively kept the same. Except the story for the cast before the beginning of the games may and will be altered!
We focus our majority on the fankids. Mostly as they are our own original characters, and it is also an OC focused AU. This does not restrict you from asking about canon characters! And in fact we welcome you to do so.
All asks are welcome! It does not matter if it relates to the Past, Present, Future and even Alternate Reality plans!
We will do our best to get asks answered when we have spare time! We hope you take interest though in our AU!! We've worked super hard on it and are still working hard to bring out more content!
Welcome back, everybody, to another trip between worlds. Thank you all again for your support, it's been rough having to rebuild everything from scratch, but I'm glad to say that 100 of you have found your way back! Perhaps as we travel across dimensions, we'll run into more familiar faces?
Reminder: If you would like to edit your AU's image, description, etc, you will need to DM me by June 18, 8pm PST. After the deadline you will not be able to make any edits until the end of Round 1. (CWs are exempt and can be changed at any time).
Polls will be released on Sunday, June 21, at 6 AM PST.

So... a year ago was when i first created dove and crow. So happy birthday to my twins!
They and the au itself was created and its been threw so many changed and upgrades! Now being shared with @kayawatts
The au itself is.... huge. Two people their own fankids and ocs. And world building. We have so many characters. Some more important than others! But that can all be read about on @theproductsofpredator . Our blog dedicated to it to help update and inform others on such!
The au itself and dove and crow helped me reach out to others. I have met so many amazing people within the community. Some I consider some close amazing friends.
Dove and crow's creation really was for the best. And both of them will forever hold special places in my heart.
I wanted to do a big piece. So over on the fankid discord server. I asked for characters! And this here is the final result.
This extra pieces i created. Some was based on ideas. Some came to me from rp ideas. However each was dedicated to some of the amazing people I have met.
Hey Roxy and Saturn! What’re your thoughts about your parents and younger siblings?
Roxanne: Oh! I think we've answered this before... But I don't mind answering again! We love all of our family equally. Espio is a great step-father to me and has always treated me as one of his own, and my mother Tikal has done the same for Saturn. While Saturn is very much a father's-daughter, she still loves and appreciates Tikal. We love all of our siblings and we are so blessed to have a big and happy family.
You guys are super cool what's your favorite way to spend a rainy day?
Saturn: In it.
Roxanne: Saturn... Please answer these properly.
Saturn: Why? The showdown is over.
Roxanne: We were given these when we were still contestants.
Saturn: Fine. I like to sit in the rain, I like to sit in thunderstorms. Happy now?
Roxanne: Yes... I suppose. Thank you so much for the ask! I'm sorry we are only just getting round to answering it now, we've been super busy! I quite enjoy sitting in the rain as well. But only when it is a peaceful downpour. I have on occasion sat around and played rainy day games! Charades and hide and seek are always a go to.
