Hopping on the Sonadow fankid train lol

This is Nova, formerly SSCE11324-GA001. They were the last in a series of experiments attempting to make a Sonic clone called Project Supernova. May make a separate full lore post. They'd meet the Sonic main characters at age 7, wherein they get freed from Robotnik's lab. Sonic and Shadow would be in their early 20s at that point.

"Super" form is the default; but contact with chaos emeralds will recharge them faster when exhausted or powered down

Needs to sleep 18-20 hours per day

Active power usage gradually drains life force;

Overexertion will eventually cause them to entered a weakened, vulnerable "powered down" state (depicted in 2nd image);

However this form is rarely seen as long as they are able to eat and sleep off the exhaustion and recharge
