Name: Anna (Aria) The Hedgehog, and Silas Deane Hedgehog.
((Appearance: Aria is a wisp of a 5-year-old, her light blue fur almost blending with the sky on a clear day. Her quills, tipped with white like frosted snow, frame a face that's both delicate and fiercely expressive. Her sapphire blue eyes, though, are her most striking feature - pools of deep understanding that seem to see beyond the surface. A custom-made hearing aid, a swirl of colorful beads and charms, nestles in her left ear, a constant reminder of what she can't hear, yet it's also a canvas for her creativity. She favors sundresses, often adorned with star patterns that seem to echo the constellations she can almost touch with her mind. A silver locket, cool against her skin, is her most treasured possession, a tangible link to memories that are fading but never forgotten.))
((Personality: Aria is an old soul in a small body. Her hard of hearing has heightened her other senses, making her acutely aware of vibrations, textures, and the subtle shifts in energy around her. She navigates the world through feeling, not just hearing. Her mind-reading ability is less a superpower and more a burden, a constant influx of thoughts and emotions that she struggles to filter. Music, especially Lakey Inspired, is her sanctuary, the vibrations washing over her like a gentle tide, calming the storm within her mind. She's fiercely protective of Silas, her baby brother, her small hand often reaching out to hold his, a silent promise of safety and love. She's learning to trust Sonic, her guardian, but the fear of loss still lingers, a shadow in her bright eyes.))
((Species: Hedgehog))
((Gender: Female))
Age: 5 years old
((Biggest Fear: The feeling of a thunderstorm, the oppressive pressure in the air, the vibrations that rattle her bones, the flashes of light that amplify the silence in her ears. It's not just the noise, but the sensory overload that terrifies her.))
((Eyes Color: Sapphire Blue))
((Fur Color: Light Blue with White Streaks))
((Birthday: March 10th))
((Affectionate Nickname: Annie (Sonic's go-to), Starry (Tails's whimsical choice), Sweet Pea (Amy's gentle endearment))
((Trauma Backstory: The sterile scent of the hospital, the hushed whispers, the fading smiles of her parents — these are the fragments that haunt her dreams. Cancer stole her parents, leaving her with a deep-seated fear of illness and a heightened awareness of mortality. The silence after their laughter faded is a constant ache in her heart. Sonic's arrival was a lifeline, but trust is a slow, fragile bloom in the shadow of grief.))
((Appearance: Silas is a bundle of pure, unadulterated joy, a 14-month-old explosion of sandy brown fur and chubby limbs. His quills, a chaotic tuft on his head, give him a perpetually surprised expression, as if he's constantly discovering the wonders of the world. His chocolate brown eyes are wide and trusting, reflecting the love and care he receives from Aria and Shadow. He wears simple onesies, often adorned with hedgehog patterns, and his favorite accessory is a star-shaped teething ring that he gnaws on with gusto.))
Sonic The Hedgehog (and his Rival Shadow The Hedgehog) was doing their usual, which was running around green hill out of boredom and trying to find something intriguing to do. But as he ran he couldn't find anything that peaked his interest. Groaning loudly, he just kept going and going until Shadow noticed movement from a bush. Sonic chuckled Realizing That it was Just Anna (an 5 years old, Sister of Silas, She was Walking around the Green Hill) and Silas (an 14 Month old Infant, Little brother of Anna and he was hiding behind his Sister's back) being Silly again.
“I know you're There Kiddos, come on out.“ he said, Amusement Clear in his voice as he crossed his arms and leaned against the Tree to Relax while Shadow watched with Amusement clear in his face.
