Claw the Hedgehog

Claw is a 9 year old Hedgehog that(don't ask how) is Rage the Hedgehog's adoptive son. He is, as everyone calls it, goth in a way, and is rarely seen "caring" for people other than his adoptive father, Rage(again, don't ask how Rage is an adoptable father when he is only 12, let's just say he is a great caretaker and he just wanted to adopt a child and the people said no.

And Rage beat the heck out of em.)

Personality
Claw seems to rarely care about people, he does, it's just not very noticable. If someone needs help he is usually reluctant at first but will always come through, he gets this from his, im just gonna say it, father, Rage, who is the same way. Claw also may not seem to show respect, but like I said before, he does have respect for, just about everyone, it's just not easily noticed. He also is prone to hiding his emotions, yet again, thanks to his father. If he is sad, he will usually block his face or just leave the room entirely.

Appearence
Claw wears a dark grey hoodie that blocks his spikes, and he has bangs covering his right eye(so when drawing it, it would appear to be on the left side). His bangs/quills(which I tend to call spikes) are black. He also wears black gloves with yellow fingertips, his shoeands are black with white laces and his eyes are green.

Bio
(Working on it)

Rage the Hedgehog
Claw, like most sons would to thier father, looks up to Rage, as Claw didn't think he was going to get adopted because of his gothic, fu** the conformists attitude. Of course, being Claw, he never really shows it and keeps to himself most of the time, when he really is just glad he got adopted. He also is a bit jealous of Rage because he always stands strong no matter what happens to him.

Powers/Abillities
Claw possesses amazing Darkness/Shadow abillities and can "sneak" into their mind and make their greatest fears and their most hated things into a physical form. Claw also has a small arsenal of sharp swords at his disposal. While these swords don't possess any powers or abillities, they can become a great asset to him.

Weaknesses
Claw is weak to light powers(not light itself, but powers) as he has some darkness molded into him. He is also very weak to fire as he hates being in hot and dry situations, and being in one of those types of situations can easily bring him on his knees.
