Appearance:



Personality: Knuckles is tough, stubborn, and kindhearted. He can be extremely violent when provoked and is almost unstoppable when his mind is set to a task, especially when he has something to protect. His time guarding the Master Emerald in isolation has left him socially awkward and ignorant to modern trends. Knuckles likes to believe the best in everyone and as a result, he can be extremely gullible, this has resulted in him walking into traps and siding with the bad guys on more than one occasion.

Biography: Knuckles is the last descendant of the ancient Knuckles clan of echidnas. Knuckles has no idea how he came to be on Angel Island or why he guards the Master Emerald, he simply does. He has been fought alongside Sonic and his friends for the sake of justice and has been tricked into fighting against them due to his gullible nature. Now the Emeralds are shattered and Angel Island has fallen into the ocean, dimensions have merged and new evils have arrived that will attempt to exploit the Emerald's powers. Knuckles will surely stop at nothing to seek out and gather all the Emerald shards.

Moves/Combat Style:
- Knuckles is talented in many forms of martial arts and has unreal strength and endurance. His unrealistic strength allows him to lift incredible weight or punch through solid steel, his endurance is just as amazing allowing him to take about as much damage as he can dish out. This makes him an excellent melee fighter, but his hot headed attitude can lead him to not backing down when he should or even fighting the wrong enemy.

Spin Dash/Jump/Attack-
Utilizes great momentum and strength to break through barriers and enemies, cannot stop once started.

Drill Claw-
When airborne, Knuckles can hurl himself towards the ground, spinning his body, fists first, at a nearly impossible speed to form a drill. It can drill him right into the ground for digging damaging nearby opponents with the debris,or drilling right through robots and the like, always making the impact with his fists. Knuckles cannot stop when he starts this attack, and cannot attack again until he comes back out of the ground.

Hammer Punch-
A particularly powerful punch that Knuckles usually sends towards the ground with enough force to trigger a large tremor and fissures throughout a radius of about 150 feet. Only affects opponents on the ground, or on walls if that's where he hits. Can only be used once per battle, takes one post to build up power, tires Knuckles out and takes another 2 posts to recover from, leaves an opening while charging and recovering.

Deep Impact-
Splits the hydrogen in the air with a super powerful punch causing a devastating strike, severely damaging stronger enemies, and instantly KO weaker enemies. Can only be used once per battle, takes one post to build up power and another 2 to recover, leaves an opening while charging.

Super Knuckles-
When Knuckles has all seven chaos emeralds together or is in the presence of all seven, he can become Super Knuckles, lasts for 3 posts.

-Knuckles can glide by stretching his arms and legs out and catching a current of air under his dreadlocks.
-Knuckles is capable of digging rather quickly using his brute strength and sometimes a spinning motion.
