Name: Maria The Hedgehog.
((Appearance: Maria is a tiny ball of sunshine, radiating warmth and sweetness despite her tragic past. As a one-month-old hedgehog, she's undeniably adorable, her large, expressive eyes. Her fur is a soft, creamy peach color, reminiscent of a summer sunset, and it's incredibly soft to the touch. She has endearing hedgehog-like paws, with the palms and soles a rosy pink, adding to her irresistible charm. Her ears are small and perked, always alert to the sounds around her, and she has a tiny, button nose that twitches when she's curious.))
((Personality: Despite her young age and traumatic past, Maria possesses an incredibly sweet and cheerful disposition. She's naturally kind and gentle, always eager to offer a smile or a cuddle. She's surprisingly confident and sassy for a baby, often expressing her opinions with a determined squeak or a well-placed wiggle. She's also well-behaved, always listening to Sonic's advice and trying her best to be good. She loves being held, finding comfort and security in the warmth of Sonic's arms, and she's incredibly affectionate, showering her loved ones with kisses and cuddles. She can be skeptical around strangers, but she quickly warms up to those who show her kindness and patience.))

((Trauma Backstory: Maria's life began with tragedy. At just a few weeks old, she lost her parents in a car accident caused by reckless drivers. She was left orphaned and alone, with no one to care for her. For days, she wandered the streets, hungry, scared, and vulnerable. Many people saw her, but most turned away, unwilling to get involved. Some glanced at her with pity, but none offered help. She was invisible, a tiny, helpless creature lost in a world that didn't seem to care. One fateful day, Sonic and his friends stumbled upon her while on a mission. Sonic, deeply moved by her plight, couldn't bear to leave her alone. He decided to take her in, to become her father and provide her with the love and care she deserved. From that moment on.))
Well, as the time went and Maria were a 5 months old baby mobian, didn't even know how to walk or talk yet, but with a sharp focusing ability and a strong recognizability, with a 10 miles see limit. a blue little vulnerable hedgehog, and right at 3 AM where everyone was asleep, in deep sleep, She started crying a soft and a very baby-like cry, in need for feeding and secure comfiness. And after minutes of crying. Minutes of crying, here She heard someone open the door, it was Sonic, her dad. With the milk bottle in his hands, his eyes were groggily heavy to be opened because of the not-enough sleep, tiredly he walked to the crib Maria were swaddled in, un—swaddled her and carefully lifted her up out of the crib, then sat on the bed beside the crib and laid her on his lap, and gently pushed the bottle inside her mouth to feed her, and pat her top head continuously to make her feel secured and comfortable while being bottle-fed. His eyes struggling to keep it opened, and trying his best not to sleep or accidentally slip her out of his hands.
“You're here just to See me suffer, huh?“ He Replied Teasingly, glancing at his Rival-to-friend Shadow The Hedgehog: who was indeed leaning against the Doorframe with his arms crossed and an Amused Smirk spreading across his lips.
