Kevin The Hedgehog

Kevin the Hedgehog "known as Project X3NO is a hedgehog sonic fan character created and owned by Kevster823. He is classified as character #1 based on the owners character list.

Creation
Kevin was first created in 2007 as "Project X3NO". He was a non official Fan Character as Kevster823 was in development at the time when he was making him a sonic like character but with a different minor change to him. He was suppose to be an hybrid of a hedgehog and a wolf species, but it was later scrapped. He didn't make his debut until 2009 where he was revealed in Facebook. His first design was a sonic lookalike that has the same fur color but with a black highlight on top of his head, same quills, tail, spine, and scuffs. His shoes was the same including the buckles on the side and the white strap across the top, but the base of his shoes was black instead of red. He had black and white scuffs on his arms and legs, he had black fingerless gloves, and he had a red shirt and blue pants. He kept that design until Kevster's birthday on August 23rd 2012, where he went threw a major redesign with his fur being light blue with white detail on the end of his quills, spines, and tail, and white detail on top of his ears, his eyes color were purple, and he had 3 black bangs. He also had new attire by wearing a purple shirt, blue jeans, white and purple shoes, and a spike bracelet. On January 31st 2019, as part of his 10th year in the community, he went threw a huge change to give him more edgier look. His changes were making his fur color dark turquoise and blue highlight (near the end of his quills only), his top and 2 side quills curve upwards and his middle and 2 bottom quills curve downwards, a new attire that removes of his shirts and pants to sport now a sleeveless coat. new shoes and gloves. The only thing he retain from his 2012 to 2018 design was his purple eyes.

History
W.I.P

Appearances
Kevin is a thin anthropomorphic hedgehog with dark turquoise fur that covers most of his body, peach skin that covers his arms, muzzle and front torso, and purple eyes. He has six quills that has blue highlights on his head, three of which curve upwards and downwards, he has two spines protruding from his back behind his shoulders, 6 bangs, fang teeths and a short tail. He also has a medium size scar on the back of his bare left hand from his childhood days while being used as a test project at Space Colony Ark.

For his attire, he wears a black and blue sleeveless coat, black fingerless gloves with two blue diamond on the back of each gloves (the right diamond on his right glove is used to choose one of his 4 powers and the left diamond on his left glove is used to detect and test his DNA and blood from the scar he has) and blue bracelet on the wrist area (can be removeable but he rarely removes them), black sneakers with grey cuffs around the ankles, gray soles with a blue like gem in front and a blue trapezoid core on the back of the shoe, and silver straps across the top of his shoes. The two diamonds on his gloves, the blue bracelet on his wrist area, and the blue core on the back of his shoes do glows blue.

Powers and abilities
Like Sonic and Shadow, Kevin can perform the Spin Attack, a technique where he curls into a concussive ball or cutting disk and directs himself at his targets. With it, Kevin can shred or burrow through just about any substance given enough speed and perform moves like the Spin Dash, Homing Attack, and Rolling Combo, though the last one requires the aid of his friends who has the spin attack. Even though this move is for offense and speed enhancement, he'll only use it for timing and a punishment.

He has 2 powers, poison and ice.

Weapons
Kevin's main weapons of choice is the Glock G9 Handgun and the Katana. The Glock G9 handgun was found by him after a G.U.N soldiers body was on the floor who was presumed dead from a war and his Katana was used by his father back in the days when he was a swordfighter, he was given the sword from his grandfather who wanted Kevin to be the passing of the torch and keeps his legacy attached ever since his death. While he uses his Glock Handgun for Gun Fights, battles and missions, he uses the Katana the same as his handgun, but he'll only uses his Sword to rarely deflect projectiles and will mainly uses it as his final blow for the kill with his Poison powers are transferred to his sword.

Personality
W.I.P

Super Kevin
By using all seven Chaos Emeralds, Kevin can enter a Super State, transforming him into Super Kevin. Easily his most frequent transformation, Super Kevin is Kevin's ultimate form. As Super Kevin, all of his abilities far surpass his normal ones. He is also able to fly and is nearly invulnerable.

He becomes more aggressive and his voices is deepen to a serious tone. Bloodlust Kevin's only weakness is his time of usages as he's able to maintain it for 5 to 7 minutes before turning back into Super Kevin. When transformed into Bloodlust Kevin, Kevin's gold color fur turns into a light purple color and his peach skin turns into a tan. His purple eyes returns from his normal form, but now supports white pupils instead of black and his quills turn upward.
