Yeah, so I've been having ideas circling in my mind about creating a Sonic OC, since some of my friends, namely and , have Sonic OCs of their own, so I decided to see if I can do it. And I gotta say, I was quite satisfied when I eventually did.

So everyone, this is my brand new Sonic the Hedgehog OC, Rocket the Coyote. If he looks awfully familiar to you, that's because I based his design off of Wile E. Coyote. Even his shoes have a color palette similar to Wile E.'s rocket skates from the 1952 cartoon "Beep, Beep".

Real name: Rocky

Nickname: Rocket
Species: Coyote
Age: 18
Gender: Male
Attire: Red rubber gloves, rocket boots
Abilities: Healing factor

Backstory:

Born in the desert of Sand Shower Zone, Rocket was just a young coyote pup when he lived with his parents Achilles (an inventor who loved making gadgets and tinkering) and Meena Coyote (a chemist). As he did not have his namesake rocket shoes at the time, he went by his actual name of Rocky. His mother made a chemical granting regenerative properties and injected it into her son's veins, giving him his healing factor. This was so she and Achilles could be less worried whenever he got hurt because any wounds he could get, regardless of severity, would now heal in just seconds or minutes. At times, Rocky would observe his father whenever he was at work, whether he was making a gadget or fixing it, and thanks to this, he got his talents for inventing and tinkering himself.

At the age of 9, using the skills he had learned from Achilles, Rocky surprised his parents by constructing a pair of what would later become his signature rocket shoes, which even proved to work successfully. His father was so proud and impressed by his son's achievement, he decided to give him the nickname Rocket, which the young coyote found cool and would later adopt as his preferred name going forward.

When Rocket became 18, he decided to leave his parents and go live somewhere else by himself, bidding them farewell as he did so. To this day, Rocket now spends his teenage life living in his own cave and going by in the world.

Some info about him:

Rocket can be a little overconfident, but with some humility, he can learn what being a hero really means. He has some degree of technical knowledge, as he himself was the one who constructed his signature flying rocket boots. He’s also a bit of a tinkerer, so he gets along well with Tails, impressed with the fox's IQ despite his age. He lives in the deserts of Sand Shower Zone (an scrapped zone from Sonic the Hedgehog 2).

Special thanks to for coming up with some of the info written in the "Some info about him" section.

UPDATE 1 (15/10/2023): Added a shine on Rocket's nose.

UPDATE 2 (23/04/2024): Gave Rocket's backstory a complete overhaul.
