User blog:Hunter1034/Now and Then

So, I've officially got only 30 days left I can possibly spend on the internet before I ship out for basic training, and I started to think back over how much I've grown since joining this site. I mean, I've been here for nearly three years, and my characters nowadays are muuuuch different from their initial designs. So different, in fact, that I'd like to compare the newest renditions of my three most used characters to their former selves.........

....Then throw them all into a 3v3 battle for survival. :3

Yeah.

Some things never change.

Hunter the Fox
Hunter was my very first Sonic character, whom I created after getting hooked on the little blue hedgehog's shows and games. I actually started writing this guy's story up before I ever saw this place, though when I stumbled upon it (via a link I clicked while researching stuffs on SNN) I instantly knew I wanted to join up.

Back then, the guys was essentially a Tails recolor with a different form of hair and some black bracers instead of gloves, though he actually had a semi-unique backstory involving him waking up as an Fox DNA + Human DNA experiment on Earth (resulting in something looking like your average anthro-fox), getting freed by a sympathetic human, discovering a unique crystalline deposit (which gave him telekinesis/telepathy), and eventually getting transported to Mobius by Eggman, defeating Eggman and getting a mobian body from contact with the 7 Chaos Emeralds and the Master Emerald. He had telekinesis, telepathy, IQ rivaling Eggy and Tails, budding chaos powers and a knack for making just about anything he wanted. Very, very Marty-Stu-ish, especially when you factor in his bipolar "morbid-then-thrill-seeker" personality, the "tragic" death of the only friend he ever had and the fact he lives in the mountains alone.

Oh.

He was also only 16. XP

 I lack a soul!! ^^ Moving along... I lack a soul!! ^^ 

Nowadays, Hunter's got only one tail and a new sense of style (no shoes, no shirt, and no more dorky bracers) and he's got a much less fantastic backstory that simply involves ikle-little-orphan Hunter running away from the orphanage he lived in, and getting saved by the (redesigned) crystals after getting hopelessly lost. His intelligence has been scaled back drastically, he's been stripped of the chaos powers, and he's now consistently a little strange in the head (and socially awkward). Oh, and he's also a accomplished metalworker/weapon-smith.

And he's 25. X3

Where are the other two?
Sorry guys, I'm bored of typing this up already, so you'll have to wait till tomorrow for more. :3
