Silver the hedgehog 🦔🧿

Appearance : Silver, as his name states, is a young silver anthropomorphic hedgehog with white fur on his chest surrounding his neck, gold eyes that have an upturned angular shape with black patterns at their edges, and peach skin that covers his muzzle, and the insides of his ears. He has a black nose on his muzzle, and two large spines at the back of his head, while on the front of his forehead, there are five distinct spines flared up and back, the two final ones covering up most of his small, triangular ears and a short pointy tail. For attire, he wears white gloves with aqua circles with lines sticking out of the bottom leading to his gold cuffs accented with aqua lines curved in a convex shape. The tops of his boots are of a similar fashion with a red gem set in gold. The rest of his boots are navy blue with a white stripe down the center, aqua toes, and gray soles with four aqua hexagons. Personality : Silver is best described as having a "strong sense of justice" and it is this trait that motivates him to travel through time to save his future. He is emblematic of hope, as he is relentlessly optimistic and never backs down from a challenge. He brings hope to futures desolated by Iblis or the Ifrit, to the heroes when Solaris had nearly won, and to the Resistance by fighting back against Infinite. Silver has also been described as mysterious and enigmatic on several occasions, with not much being known about him or his powers. Although usually serious on the outside, Silver is young and somewhat immature. He has been described as naïve, rash, and reckless. That does not mean, however, that he is incompetent, as Eggman Nega once said that he is very perceptive and that he rarely falls for his tricks. With little information to draw upon, he lets his intuition guide him, Silver is very sharp and does not fall for the tricks of Rouge the Bat. Due to his straightforward nature, Silver can be notably blunt and rude. Silver can be quite brash, having a noted attitude and a mischievous side. Silver is abrasive and often insults and laughs at his enemies or sneers at things he finds unimpressive. However, these traits are only an extension of his sincere and unpretentious demeanor, including casual gestures such as waving. This too is part of Silver's innocence and purity that add to his charm. As noted by Blaze, Silver is notably naive. Silver has a black and white perspective and has been described as innocent. He sometimes does not understand social cues, takes things literally or doesn’t get jokes. Silver often expects people to believe he is from the future or other outlandish situations simply because he himself knows them to be true. Silver is also unfamiliar with many things in the present and is new to many experiences. Despite his naivety, Silver isn’t trusting, as he was immediately wary of Dodon Pa as well as Rouge the Bat and questioned Mephiles' plans before even Blaze. Described as a "hedgehog of justice", Silver is straightforward, cannot tell lies, and is always thinking about others' happiness before his own. As such, he is always ready to protect those in need and lend a helping hand. However, calling him a hedgehog of justice might be a bit of an exaggeration; this is because his wish is to maintain peace, and not eradicate evil. Despite sometimes coming from a devastated future, Silver is an optimist, but has dubbed himself as also being a realist, having once believed before his first encounter with Mephiles that time travel was impossible. Due to his sometimes ruined timeline, the white hedgehog can occasionally deviate from his mission to enjoy even the smallest of things in the present timeline, such as innocently playing with Chao[45] and even calling a desolate desert "so beautiful", much to the confusion of those around him. He generally keeps a positive attitude and never gives up hope, no matter how objectively hopeless the situation is. He is also quite humble; despite his actions having helped saved his era many times, Silver does not see himself as a hero, but rather someone who tries to not mess up history too much. However, he is willing to bear the responsibilities of being a hero if it means putting smiles on peoples' faces. Despite his kind soul, Silver can also be a very dangerous individual, and tends to deal with things too head-on because of the strength of his feelings and he will sometimes take everything upon himself. He will not think twice about resorting to violence against anyone, even a friend of his, over a misunderstanding. When he pursues an enemy, he does so with relentless determination. Most noticeably, when tricked into thinking that Sonic was the cause of his ruined future during the Solaris incident, the white hedgehog was willing to do everything in his power to destroy his target even after judging that Sonic could not have reasonably been able to destroy the world following a confrontation. Owing to this determination, Silver can show an absolute refusal to give up, even if all the odds are stacked up against him. This, as well as him having little regard for pain, can make him a very frightening opponent. However, this is also an aspect of his purity and endearing virtues. Silver has also been described as having an enduring charm. Silver lives for world peace and prosperity. Beautiful flourishing environments and places where people live peacefully leave him breathless while scarred and destroyed environments sadden him. Silver loves bringing smiles to others and denotes the state of his good futures as ones where people are happy and have smiles , and is outraged at destruction and suffering in the world. Silver is an optimistic, young hedgehog who has a strong sense of justice. This personality trait is what motivates him to head back into the past in order to correct the future and help his people at whatever the cost. However, he is somewhat over-eager and naïve, which makes him prone to making decisions without fully thinking things through. Somewhat awkward when dealing with others and a bit socially clumsy, he has a tendency to hide behind a façade of bravado. Having suffered from loneliness for a very long time, Silver also has a hard time grasping the notion of someone preferring to stay alone. Silver also struggles with the concept of returning to the past without any issues occurring in his future, becoming anxious over the idea of having no clear directive to his actions. When lacking this directive, Silver's desire to be proactive can quickly get him into unintentional trouble. Despite his faults, Silver is a very kind-hearted, brave, selfless and daring individual who is ready to risk his life for others, being ready to jump into the face of danger no matter the danger, as he is willing to quickly put himself on the line to help his allies and friends. Silver's strong capacity for kindness has allowed him to make friends with many people, even those who are isolated, such as Whisper the Wolf. History : During the Eggman War, Silver found himself in a deadly pinch more than once. Each time however, he was saved by the legendary Guardian Angel, whom he became a fan of. From this point forward the comic is set after the events of Sonic Forces, to see the events of the game. Main article: War to Take Back the Planet After Eggman and his empire were defeated, Silver left the Resistance and returned to his time. Upon his return however, he discovered that everyone from his time were gone. All that was left were water and sparse metallic plant life. Silver thus went back to Sonic's time to find out what had happened and prevent it. The Fate of Dr. Eggman Back in Sonic's time, Silver heard from Amy that the Resistance was looking for clues in Eggman's bases that could tell them what Neo Metal Sonic, who had taken over as leader of the Eggman Empire and was aiming to conquer the world, was up to. Silver thus went to help Sonic in an Eggman base. There, he came to Sonic's aid when a Spina attacked him. They also discovered that the Guardian Angel was nearby when she sniped a Spina sneaking up on them, which excited Silver. After Silver told the oblivious Sonic about the Guardian Angel, he let him in on his reason for returning to the past. The two then found the Guardian Angel, who retreated into the shadows when Silver tried talking to her. Sonic, however, convinced the Guardian Angel to trust them, and she introduced herself as Whisper. The trio then centered the center of the base together, where they fought E-107 Theta and a horde of Spinas. During the fight, Silver saved Whisper when she was down. Theta was then destroyed by Sonic. With this, Whisper trusted Silver and Sonic a little more. After Whisper was kept from destroying a computer, Silver took a look at the Eggnet and discovered Neo Metal Sonic's horrific plan. Silver and Sonic subsequently contacted Resistance HQ, telling Knuckles and Amy to call in everyone. Battle For Angel Island Afterward, Silver returned to Resistance HQ. There, Silver and the Resistance's other allies were informed of what he and Sonic had discovered: that Neo Metal Sonic had conquered Angel Island, which he had turned into a flying fortress, and secured the Master Emerald for himself on the island. Eventually, Silver was assigned to help two of the assembled group's factions with breaking the Egg Fleet's control over Angel Island while Sonic and Knuckles confronted Neo. On the way to Angel Island, Silver spent the time playing cards while Tangle messed with him. As soon as their ship approached Angel Island however, the Egg Fleet shot it down. Fortunately, Silver and his allies got off the ship before it crashed. Upon arriving on Angel Island, Silver was instructed to "wreck stuff", prompting him to start tearing incoming Egg Pawns apart. Soon after, Silver helped Tails hijack an Egg Fleet battleship by holding back the Egg Pawns on the bridge. When Master Overlord (a transformation Neo Metal Sonic had achieved with the Master Emerald) attacked the battleship, Silver joined his allies in a midair assault on Master Overlord, whom they forced closer to Angel Island (which was in freefall due to the absence of the Master Emerald) while Knuckles focused on removing the Master Emerald from Master Overlord's body. During the battle, Silver and his team got shaken off Master Overlord, but Silver managed to rescue everyone using his psychokinesis. Knuckles subsequently got the Master Emerald away from Master Overlord and brought it back to Angel Island, returning the island to the sky while Master Overlord powered down to normal. With the battle over, Silver brought everyone down to Angel Island where he thanked Whisper for her aid. As everyone got ready to leave Angel Island onboard a repaired Egg Fleet battleship, Silver and Blaze would chat with each other. When Sonic then came to check up on them and hear their next move, Silver revealed after hearing Blaze's plans that he was staying in Sonic's era for the time being, as he had a nagging feeling that the future he escaped from was still going to happen and that the real threat had not passed yet. Silver and Blaze were then left to themselves while Sonic checked on the others. Silver tried to grow vegetables in a garden in Emeraldville Ruins after receiving the suggestion from Amy. He did not succeed in growing anything however, though he tried very hard. When Blaze came to see him, she learned of his plight and burnt the weak sprouts to fertilize the soil with ashes, explaining that the weapons from wartime had made the soil too tough and acidic for a garden. Following Blaze's orders, Silver eventually managed to get his garden to flourish thanks to her help. After the battle for Angel Island, Silver continued his search for the looming doom threatening the future. Eventually, he met an informant who told him of an Eggman base on Frozen Peak before vanishing. Teaming up with Sonic, who was looking for leads on the whereabouts of Dr. Eggman, who was up to something, the two hedgehogs traveled to Frozen Peak's Eggman base, which was teeming with activity. Before they could attack however, Metal Sonic ambushed them. During the subsequent fight, Metal Sonic got saved by Dr. Starline, whom Silver recognized as his informant. Introducing himself, Starline revealed himself as the one behind their present concerns and that he had staged this encounter to test himself against Sonic. Eventually, Silver and Sonic engaged Starline and Metal Sonic. While Silver managed to remove Metal Sonic from the battlefield, Sonic ended up getting sent through a portal and over a cliff, prompting Silver to follow Sonic through the portal. After saving Sonic, he and Silver hurried back to Starline, whom Sonic pinned down. Starline then gave them a code to a vault in the base with details on Eggman, prompting Silver to go check it out. When Silver entered the code however, he instead activated a bomb, which was Starline's real plan, just as Sonic came to stop him. Fortunately, Silver was able to protect himself and Sonic from the explosion using his psychokinesis. However, the explosion took its toll on Silver, whom Sonic brought to the Resistance HQ to recuperate. Silver soon recovered from his injuries and was called to action after he got word of the Zombot outbreak in Sunset City. He traveled there with Tails in the Tornado. As soon as Silver arrived on the scene, he used his psychokinesis on the many Zombots that surrounded Sonic (who was partially infected himself) and Omega. After clearing a path for Sonic to retreat, Silver allowed Tails to grab Omega's head from his damaged body and released the Zombots. As soon as this happened, Shadow, who had fully become a Zombot, lunged at Silver but the latter narrowly dodged his attack. He then retreated with Tails. Back at Restoration HQ, Sonic thanked Silver and Tails for their help, which left Silver to remind Sonic that he still owed him one. Sonic then moved on and asked if Dr. Eggman's Metal Virus fitted the cause of his metallic description of his future, to which Silver was now sure of and hoped that his presence would stop the virus from destroying the world. Sonic also asked about Zombots, though Silver stated that he could not find anyone in the future and hoped not to find out why. Tails soon told the two that he created a device to read Sonic's biometrics as he ran to give more insight as to how his speed combated the Metal Virus. However, he also stated that the computers in the HQ would not be able to read that kind of data and planned to go to his lab in Central City instead but was wary that he may get attacked by Zombots. Silver proposed to cover him, despite the risk that he may be called elsewhere but Sonic took Silver up on his optimism. While Tails went off to Central City with Tangle and Whisper, Silver went to Ice Paradise to help with the Zombot outbreak that occurred there. He found the area on fire and continued to fight against the Zombots to the best of his efforts. He was later contacted by Tangle who asked for back-up in Central City but Silver had to decline as he was still dealing with the outbreak in Ice Paradise. The Rescue Shuttle for the survivors of Ice Paradise went down to the Zombots. Silver was unable to rescue anyone and ended up getting injured during the event. Silver instead went to Angel Island to meet up with the Restoration as it was their final safe haven. There, he found Dr. Eggman talking about how all the Zombots would disintegrate approximately two hundred years into the future, which he confirmed to everyone as it described his current future. Amy rushed to Silver's side and he told her how he failed his mission in Ice Paradise; when Silver thought his time may be doomed because of his failures in the present, Eggman asked if he was always this melodramatic only to have Amy snap back at him, saying that he did not get to judge. Outside, Silver and the others tried to come up with ideas on how to counteract the virus. Espio suggested using Chaos Control, only for Silver to state that Shadow was better at it than him and the move only moved a target over a limited range and could not change things. Eggman instead came up with the idea to use the Warp Topaz, as if they had Super Sonic charge it with his power, they would be able to warp the virus away with one swoop. Starline protested against it due to its instability and decided to leave and create a solution on his own; instead, Eggman, with Metal Sonic's help, removed Starline's glove that had the Warp Topaz attached to it, fired him and had him thrown out via a Warp Portal. Following this, Eggman surmised that Rouge would be able to steal the two Emeralds that were on the Faceship from Zavok; Espio noted that it left five Zeti left to deal with but Silver felt confident that they would be able to overwhelm them so long as they had each other. The group realized that they would have to split up and ambush the Deadly Six all at once since there was a risk that one could contact the others should they get a sense of their plan. While Eggman thought to work on a "Multi-Portal Generator" to help the others reach their destinations, Tails thought it would be best if everyone had a backup in case someone turned into a Zombot; from this, Amy was prompted to call in the Babylon Rogues to increase their numbers. Silver gleefully watched Eggman and Tails build a Multi-Portal Generator using the Warp Topaz so that they could go and fight the Deadly Six. Sonic returned from his run and had come up with a plan for who should be assigned with who and what Zeti they should go after. He explained to Silver that he will head off with Whisper to take on Zor, explaining that they should handle him at a distance due to him being described as "weird"; Silver happily accepted the mission and looked forward to working with Whisper once again. Once Eggman and Tails managed to get the coordinates set in, Silver and Whisper went off into the Warp Portal that would lead them to Zor. The two arrived in Orchardville and watched Zor act gloomy on his owl mech. Silver explained that he would grab him with his powers while Whisper covered him from a distance, which she accepted. Silver restrained the Zeti, demanding the Chaos Emerald so that his actions would not affect his future. Zor instead broke out of Silver's hold and took a liking to being responsible for a ruined future. Zor had actually recognized Silver from spending time on Eggnet and was interested in him being from the future. While the Zeti had his shadow clones attack Silver, he expressed happiness again in knowing that the future would be in ruin due to him. The hedgehog told him that he was messed up and asked him how he could be this way, a question which the Zeti reversed, asking how Silver could be so disgustingly selfless and heroic; Silver told him that it was due to his faith in others and believing that things would get better. He also mentioned that he had a "guardian angel" watching over him. Following this, Zor is hit in the chest by a laser shot from Whisper the Wolf's Variable Wispon, removing his Chaos Emerald. This catches Zor off guard and makes him lose concentration over the shadow clones that were holding Silver. Now free, Silver grabbed the Chaos Emerald and destroyed Zor's owl mech, forcing him to fall onto the ground below. As Silver and Whisper fled the scene, Zor called out after them saying that they could not leave him surrounded by Zombots they were supposed to be heroes. When Silver and Whisper arrived back on Angel Island, along with most of the other survivors, they found that Zavok had found their location, drawing nearer to the island in the Faceship. He had led a large horde of Zombots to the location as well. Sonic turned to Silver, saying that as he came from a future where they had failed in stopping the Metal Virus, they would need to take advantage of the one thing that was not there before; Silver accepted, stating that Sonic just needs to tell him what he wants him to do. Thanks to the efforts of Rouge, the Faceship was brought down and fell into the ocean, crashing down onto the horde of Zombots. This did not stop Zavok as he simply emerged from the rubble and transformed into Giant Zavok with his Chaos Emerald. As retaliation, he shot a fireball at the island with his mouth. He then grabbed a large handful of Zombots and threw them onto the surface to deal with the survivors, which included a number of familiar faces to Silver. In a last ditch effort plan to eliminate the Metal Virus, Sonic requested that Metal Sonic fly him to Zavok, which Eggman permitted, while Silver carried the Chaos Emeralds. Zavok told Sonic to give up and began throwing hordes of Zombots at them; this did not slow Metal Sonic down as he simply flew around them. Zavok then fired a large fireball at Sonic and Metal Sonic, only for the latter to activate his Black Shield in protection. Zavok tried to grab the duo but was stopped by Silver using his psychokinesis. Metal Sonic attempted to fly Sonic directly to the final Chaos Emerald on Zavok's chest, only for the Zeti to blow them downwards to the Faceship wreckage. The robot managed to carry Sonic upward again, only for Zavok to use his electromagnetic his powers on Metal Sonic to prevent him from advancing. Nonetheless, Sonic ran up Zavok's body and managed to pull out the Chaos Emerald from his chest while calling on Silver. The force taking out the Emerald caused Sonic to fall. Silver flew to Sonic with the rest of the Emeralds as his infection nearly completed and Zavok clasped his hands around them. With the power of the Emeralds, Silver and Sonic became Super Silver and Super Sonic, with the latter completely burning off his infection. Super Sonic proceeded to beat back Zavok, forcing him into his regular form. With the Warp Topaz in hand, Super Sonic opened up a Super Warp Portal to the sun while Super Silver used his enhanced psychokinesis to remove the Metal Virus from every living infected thing on the planet. When the Topaz began to spin out of control, the duo flew around the planet many times at super speed with to quicken the process. After Super Silver detected that all of the Metal Virus had been sent into the sun, Super Sonic tried ditching the Warp Topaz through the Super Warp Portal. This only backfired and created a large explosion that threw Silver back onto the island. When Tails, Knuckles and Amy checked up on and helped Silver up, the hedgehog told them that the Metal Virus was completely destroyed but stated that Starline was right in the sense that the Warp Topaz could not handle that amount of power. He continued, saying that Sonic tried to get rid of the Warp Topaz through the Super Warp Portal but the resulting blast created a green gate of energy in the sky, with Sonic himself nowhere to be seen. When Zavok attempted to attack the civilians down below, Silver carried the Team Chaotix down so that they could restrain him. Silver was able to use his psychokinesis to keep Zavok in place and prevent him from moving. Soon, once Metal Sonic tried escaping with Orbot and Cubot, Vector asked Silver to grab him. The hedgehog could not as he was focusing on Zavok and instead asked Shadow to lend a hand. However, once Silver looked up, he saw that Shadow had already taken off after him. Some time later, Silver returned to his time period in hopes that things went back to normal. Arriving at a restored city, Silver thanked Sonic and the others for their help in creating a good future and hoped that their time stays peaceful as well. Silver returned from the future to harvest the garden he'd planted with Blaze in the Emeraldville Ruins, along with his friends in the Restoration. However, he remained troubled by a lack of direction, left with nothing to base his identity on as both the past and the future were safe. Espio noticed this and spoke to him in private, assuring Silver he didn't need a mission as long as he had his friends. Silver thanked and hugged Espio, and the two returned to the others. Silver, Blaze, Amy, and Tails arrived in the out-of-control Eggperial City to help Sonic fight Badniks, having been called by Jewel to backup Sonic. Once Sonic explained the situation to them, Tails suggested traveling through time or dimensions to save them. Silver and Blaze shot down that idea, with Silver saying he can't freely time travel. The group worked together to clear a way for Tails to hack into the city, and they began forming a plan before they were interrupted by explosions caused by Team Dark nearby. Silver and Tails tried to get Team Dark to join their effort, but they refused. Silver and the others were then outnumbered by Shadow Androids, so Silver made a ramp to give them a boost to join Team Dark to fight them off. When Shadow overloaded on Chaos energy from the Giant Fake Chaos Emeralds, Silver and the others retreated to plan their next move. Silver's plan was to attack Eggman head-on in the central tower. Amy was not on board with the plan, but Silver didn't fear Eggman and was certain they would win. Blaze told him they shouldn't be rash, and Tails and Rouge brought up they needed to increase their odds by saving Shadow and Omega. Silver agreed, but then was taken aback when Tangle appeared through the ground. Silver asked what happened to her, but before she could answer, Metal Sonic attacked the group. Blaze saved Silver from getting into a Spatial-Displacement Trap and destroyed one himself. Silver, Blaze, and Rouge split from the group to find Shadow and Omega. Once they found Shadow trapped in Fake Chaos Emeralds, Silver was the only one able to get close because of the energy. He briefly doubted he could rescue him, but with Blaze's reassurance he tried again. Using his Psychokinesis, he finally freed Shadow and, with some words of encouragement, was able to get Shadow to control his Chaos energy. Shadow then brought the group to the surface by making a tower of Fake Emeralds. Sonic, Tangle, and Whisper worked together and destroyed Eggman's tower. Shadow told Silver to protect the others because the Fake Emeralds were about to explode. Silver took the group off the ground as Shadow used Chaos Control to take the Fake Emeralds in the sky, where they exploded safely. Later, Silver attended a picnic with the group and the Restoration.
