I'm sorry. I'm so sorry.

I had to do it.

Why do people insist on making fan characters that are related to a canon character?! Yes, I'll admit I am guilty of this as well, but most people seem to want to make their fan-relative either as strong or stronger than the canon relative, or more important in some way. My two relatives (related to Sonic) are Manik the Hedgehog and Cinos the Werehog.

Manik is Sonic's little brother. He's basically as strong as the average human child, although a bit faster than one. Cinos is quite powerful, but practically exclusive to NAOSTH, and is Sonic's Blood Ancestor. This is a bit different than being a direct ancestor; there are others, lost to the past, who are Blood Descendants of Cinos, and not related to Sonic in any other way. Are these Descendants prophetic in some way, destined to become great heroes?

Looking at Sonic, I'd say yes.

Okay enough of that.

Take this as you will. It's just my opinion, after all. And also in my opinion, it's possible to do the "canon relative" card correctly.
