Hallo again!

Look at me go-- I ask everybody what they thought Blaze should be, and I end up going with my original idea-- a hedgehog. I'm so nice. Well, that's not entirely true. My first idea is the idea is the design on the left. My second is the other one, which has some influences from suggestions I got.

Both of these forms are part of Blaze's were-form. Clearly, something strange is going on with her. Let me explain...

In her normal life, Blaze is constantly suppressing her pyrokinetic abilities. It's become a huge part of her psyche. She's terrified of her power, and what happens when she lets it out. When she undergoes the werehog transformation, her will to control herself is so intense that it actually affects what she becomes. In her "control" form, she has no pyrokinetic abilities at all, and relies on brute strength if she must fight though she is pacifistic. But as the species she transforms in to is a hedgehog (I changed her eyes 'cause of that, not a mistake on my part), she has a lot of trouble with accidentally hurting people with her large spines.

But if Blaze DOES lose her temper, she undergoes ANOTHER transformation... Into a demon-like, flaming, berzerker! Watch out, she won't stop 'till you're ashes. I based her design on the very intersting "Proto-Blaze" design uncovered by ArchangelUK of the site Sonic Wrecks, an early design for her character. Check it out [link] ! I changed it at bit to match the other form I'd made, and added some elements of Iblis with the eyes. I was reluctant to do this, seeing as the whole point of GOTF is that Iblis is erased from the timestream but I guess since Generations mussed that up I can let it slide a bit. Don't blame me when the paradoxes start. Only once I finished it did I realize she looks a LOT like Mephiles. Oh well. Overall I'm happy with this concept, especially for all the story opportunities it offers.

Enjoy!
