I've been thinking of updating my character picture of mystic Monkey. For years I've always been conflicted about the sword.

The only reason I gave Mystic Monkey a sword to begin with is because Sonic had superspeed and sharp hedgehog spikes, Tails had his big tails that he can clobber with and Knuckles had big meaty fists. Despite their normal exterior almost all Sonic characters have some natural means of animal attributes to utilize as an attack.

Monkeys are great climbers but that's about it, which is why I gave him the sword to make up for lack of spikes or meaty fists. But just because I like sword doesn't mean I always agreed with Mystic having one and it's perhaps a conflict of mine I've had since Dreamcast-era.
