Nocmere: It has to do with the way that Black Arms work. You see, that red pigmentation actually comes from how honored you are. Shadow the Hedgehog was honored by G.U.N, so his red stripes were healthy, and Black Doom's stripes are red, because he is the leader. The same applies to the rest of the soldiers. I'm different, I'm not striving for honor, so I resided in the core of the planet where the unnerving amounts of Chaos altered my pigment and my lack of any sort of honor besides my own made my pigment a dull blue color. My pigment is also very little. You only see it on my chest, around my wrists, and on my eyes. My apologies if this monologue was to big.
