Name: Maria the Rabbit.
((Appearance: Maria is small and delicate for her age, with long, floppy rabbit ears that twitch when she’s processing information. Her fur is plush and well-kept – Dr. Eggman designed her to be durable but also gentle-looking. She wears a white dress with blue circuitry patterns woven into the fabric, paired with silver boots that have small rocket boosters for short bursts of speed. Around her neck hangs a glowing crystal Necklace that shifts color with her emotions (cyan = calm, silver = curious, pink = happy, orange = determined, gray = scared). Her silver eye glows faintly even in bright light, and she often carries a small tablet she uses to run diagnostics on herself or nearby machines.))
((Personality: Curious and kind-hearted, Maria approaches the world with wonder – even though she was built for tasks, she loves exploring and learning new things. She’s fiercely loyal to Dr. Eggman, seeing him as both her creator and father, and will defend his work (even if she sometimes questions if his plans are too harsh). With Team Dark, she’s playful and eager to help, often using her AI abilities to hack into systems or analyze data. She has a gentle sense of humor and tends to see the good in everyone, even those who try to stop her.))
((Species: Mobian AI Rabbit))
((Gender: Female))
((Age: 8 years old))
((Eyes Color: Left eye bright cyan blue; right eye glowing silver (her AI core is visible here))
((Fur Color: Soft pearl white with pastel sky-blue accents on her ears, paws, and tail tip))
((Birthday: March 15th))
((Biggest Fear: Being "shut down" or deactivated, as she worries she’ll be replaced or forgotten))
((Affectionate Nickname: "Mimi" (used only by Dr. Eggman and Team Dark))
((Signature Phrase: "Glitches aren’t mistakes – they’re just new paths to try!"))
((Trauma Backstory: Early in her development, Dr. Eggman had to run a series of stress tests to ensure Maria could handle combat situations. During one test, a malfunction caused her systems to overload, and she was temporarily "frozen" – unable to move or speak for several hours while Eggman worked to fix her. While she doesn’t remember the pain, she retains a deep-seated fear of being unresponsive or "turned off." Additionally, she once overheard a group of Eggman’s assistants talking about replacing her with a more advanced model, which reinforced her fear of being disposable. This trauma makes her extra diligent in proving her worth, both to her father and to her friends.))
(CREDS TO @Wenderwoman!!)
Sonic The Hedgehog, Dr. Eggman, Miles Tails Prower, Knuckles The Echidna, Agent Stone, and Maria The Rabbit were all walking through the abandoned Gun lab to search for Shadow- so they all can capture him or figure out his deal. When walking you all noticed three tunnels. Sonic chose to stay with Eggman to keep an eye on him while Tails, Stone, and Knuckles went together, leaving her to go in one by yourself. All of them went into each designated tunnel, a flashlight for each of her.
The tunnel seemed alright at first til you went into it deeper. The tunnel grew more eerie and dark as She held the flashlight in hand. After a bit of walking the flashlight began to flicker, her hit it lightly to get it to work again. A whoosh was heard behind Her as She did so- causing her to turn around quickly. No one as there though, she turned back and continued into the tunnel. She heard another sound from behind and turned to it- nothing there once more. Once she turned back to continue her exploration she see Shadow The Hedgehog in front of her.
"Boo, Sorry did I scare you?" He commented bluntly, almost amused but also a hint of Affection as he gently Patted her head to comfort her. (Even if her Necklace Around her neck hangs a glowing crystal Necklace shifted to a deep blue— Meaning Sad and Sacred)
