Please, call me Twi, if you must :D

Also, I'm sure it's fine to have some similarities. Take my character, Terrador. Right off the bat you can tell there's inspiration from Knuckles. They have a few too many things in common for my taste, but Terrador has vastly different qualities that set him apart from the rad red dude methinks. So with enough character development, it's surely possible to make a character somewhat like Blaze, but different and unique enough to be considered her own being. Using the Sol Princess as a base of sorts is no problem at all, it just requires a bit of extra thought.

I'm glad I can be of assistance. Terrador was the first character I created and that was 5 years ago. Looking back at his initial profile makes me cringe lol So I definitely know my stuff about what makes a good character, so I don't mind helping out and sharing my knowledge. I hope all I've shared will help you out greatly. If you have any questions, I'm more then willing to help you out. Thanks so much for listening as well. I appreciate that more then you know
