Personality: Graviton has a capacity for strong emotions. Said emotions are often displayed as they are felt and he can't hide his true feelings. That said, though he feels and display emotions powerfully, such displays are often short lived and will soon reach more reasonable levels. He is passionate and driven, often uncompromising when his mind is firmly set on a goal. He is confident and believes in his own ability to personally have an impact on a situation. Graviton possesses strong wills and a powerful sense of right and wrong. He has a strong sense of self-worth and tries to be humble about himself either out of politeness or some sense of propriety. Either that or he may express it in a particularly abrasive form of self-righteousness. He has strong, mostly unalterable convictions and values honor above reason. He is rarely forgiving to those that upset him.

Appearance: Long and slightly shaggy dark purple fur covers his entire body. He has a tan furred muzzle with a long and pointed shiny black nose. He has a pair of serious and constantly alert purple colored eyes with black pupils. Graviton's build is fairly muscular and somewhat noticeable. This is more prominent in his arms. Fangs are visible when his mouth is open even at the slightest. A pair of small and triangular ears with a tan inner area are perked on the top of his head. Black ovular markings cover both palms along with one on the middle of his forehead, all of which are positioned vertically.

Attire: Graviton simply wears a pair of baggy black pants. Also, a pair of purple shoes with one thick black strap going horizontally across the top with black soles.

Quill style: Graviton has three rows of three elongated quills that protrude from the back of his head. The outer six curve downwards while the three in the middle curve upwards. One straight and fairly thin quill hangs from each side of his head that point down and reach chest level. Three, upright pointing quills rest right on his forehead. He has two rows of two less pliable, slightly shorter quills on his back. The upper two curve upwards while the bottom two curve downwards. He also has a small, somewhat arched tail that protrudes from his pants.

Abilities - Gyrokinesis: Graviton has the ability to manipulate the gravitational force on an object or person and even himself. This is performed by his markings glowing and taking on different colors and shapes (see below.) To harness this ability, he launches orbs of energy from the markings on his palms slightly larger than his fists called Gyro Spheres. They fly at a moderate speed and he can be fairly accurate if he aims correctly. After traveling a short distance, the spheres vanish. Upon contact from the spheres, an aura of the respective color surrounds the object or person until the effects ware off. Up to five spheres can be launched in one setting. He must charge energy up briefly before unleashing one. The effects last up to 7 seconds and he must wait a couple of minutes (or for role-playing purposes, 3 rounds) before his Gyro Sphere usage resets. He has the ability to switch between the various effects at will. Once all of his power is used, the markings vanish until he recovers. When using this power, all of his quills including the ones on his back curve upwards

Red: The color his markings become when he chooses to increase gravity and make things up to six times heavier. The spheres themselves are heavier than others, resulting in reduced range and speed. However, if he were to unleash one at a downward trajectory, their speed increases. His marking also become the shape of a positive sign and each individual sphere adds the original weight of the object or person. For example; Graviton's weight of 90 pounds would be added by 90 with each sphere, maxing out at 540 pounds for him. When using this in a fight, his enemy would most likely have hindered mobility from being weighed down. If his opponent wields a weapon, Graviton can make the weapon heavier and beyond their abilities to carry. He can also use it on himself for defensive purposes such as if he wished to plant himself in one spot or prevent being launched into the air. If airborne, his increased gravity can be utilized for deadly offensive strikes.

Blue: The color his markings become when he chooses to decrease gravity, making things up to six times lighter. These spheres are lighter and appear to drift through the air with better range than the red spheres and are not affected by which angle they're fired at. These markings become the shape of a negative sign and each individual sphere subtracts the amount of weight equal to that of the object or person under six times the lesser gravity. For example; Graviton's weight of 90 pounds would be subtracted by 15 with each sphere, maxing out at 15 pounds for him. When using this against an opponent, they may have difficulty adapting to the lesser gravity, especially at higher extents. A foe's reduced weight could cause them to potentially float upwards to dangerous heights, most likely if Graviton assists with this concept. Just as the red counterpart, Graviton can use this on himself for mainly evasive maneuvers such as high or far leaps into the air. This can also be used to protect himself from high falls.

Black: His default color and shape. Ovular in appearance, these actually represent a zero, which means zero effect on gravity. Firing one of these black Gyro Spheres will restore gravity to normal. These are the fastest of his spheres, able to strike a foe with great speed and travel the farthest. The aura they shroud on their target only lasts a second. Despite using the same amount of energy as the red or blue spheres, only one of these can be unleashed at a time and have a much more rare usage.

Purple: The color his markings become when he chooses to shift the center of gravity and defy the gravitational pull. These spheres are faster the red spheres but slower than the black ones and slightly more range than the blue spheres. He can control their trajectory to an extent, which often results in a slight arc of any direction at the end of its travel. His markings become the shape of an arrow. Graviton can launch one of these purple spheres at a foe/ally, an object or himself, than fire a second one at a wall or the ceiling or even an object or another person. Once the second sphere makes contact, anything under the effects of the first sphere will be pulled to it, thus shifting the center of gravity. The effects last up to 15 seconds and can be stopped at any time by switching to another gravity effect. The arrow markings always point to where Graviton's center of gravity is, sometimes pointing up or to the side until his feet are planted on the desired surface, where the arrows point to the original downward angle. Since these require twice the energy as normal, three more of the other spheres are accessible if he has not used them already.

Gyro Punch: Graviton is able to place the power of his red or blue Gyro Spheres into a melee attack by engulfing his fists in red or blue energy. This has the same properties as the spheres, meaning the same effects and only five punches can be unleashed before the energy vanishes.

Force-field: This defensive attack does not interfere with his Gyro Sphere usage, but still heavily drains him especially after prolonged use. He can create a small circular wave of nearly invisible, anti-gravity energy around him that lasts only four seconds. Anything within a couple feet of him would instantly cease all movements. The larger or faster they are, the more energy it takes for the move to be effective. If faced with projectiles, the force-field drops them harmlessly to the ground after the effects ware off. Against a foe, this has the possibility to prevent them from getting within striking distance. If used while airborne, any momentum he has will come to a complete stop and he will hover until it wears off, where he will drop at a normal rate. Using this takes massive amounts of energy and timing plus he himself must remain motionless with his body upright and his arms outstretched to the sides. If he's quick enough, he can reverse the force-field and send any projectiles or foes back at the source in equal velocity with a surge of Gyrokinetic energy. However, the larger the speed or size, the more difficulty he has doing so.

Attraction and Repulsion: This also does not affect his Gyro Sphere usage. Utilizing his Gyrokinetic abilities and aiming a palm at his target, Graviton can mentally pull objects towards him or push objects away. The larger an object is the more energy this drains.

Other abilities: Graviton can deny requirements for a long time such as the need of food, sleep and even water. His body composes a substitute agent from kinetic and potential energy to fulfill the metabolism. Like most hedgehogs, he can curl down into a ball, taking on a diagonally pivoted and ovular shape. Although he cannot use the famous Spin Dash or Homing Attack, he does use this as a midair attack against foes below him or at far distances if he gets a running start. His ball form also grants him slightly more protection than normal. He is constantly training himself to become stronger. Through time, he trained his body to effortlessly withstand six times its own weight. This has made him quite durable and he can suffer high extents of damage before going down. This has made his legs powerful as well. He can reach speeds up to 120 mph and leap far or high distances. After enduring a handstand for the full duration of the six times gravity, Graviton has formidable strength in his arms and boasts surprising agility to boot. He is highly disciplined and knows his body's limits.

Item in possession: Graviton holds a set of very unique items called the Gyro Emeralds, which are almost a copy of the same colored Chaos Emerald. Cylindrical in appearance with pointed edges on each end, they have infinite power but have a limit on maximum power they can hold at one time and can be drained after prolonged use, going through various color cycles. While donning a glowing aura of the respective color, it’s at full power. Standard color with no glow means it’s at roughly half the capacity. The glow can fade and the emerald can have a grayish hue to it, meaning only a quarter of the power is at Graviton' disposal. Finally, all power can be used and the emerald is left a dull black, leaving it useless for the time being. Through time, they can gradually restore their full power. The emeralds are linked to each other and with only one emerald at his disposal; Graviton can warp the other emeralds to his location. He can sense the energies from far distances and can differentiate them from a Chaos Emeralds despite their identical power. Only one exists at the time being and Graviton is in possession of the purple emerald. It is the main power source of his Gyrokinetic abilities. What Graviton does not know is that he can connect his emerald with a Chaos Emerald. After he does this, he can transfer all of the Gyrokinetic energy into the Chaos Emerald. This will result in the Chaos Emerald spawning another Gyro Emerald of the same color and can of course be used only once per emerald, maxing out at 7 as expected. Unlike the Chaos Emeralds, these emeralds do not have positive or negative polarities, but has neutral energy instead. Each Gyro Emerald Graviton is in possession of doubles the maximum power of his Gyrokinesis and adds 5 Gyro Spheres to his disposal. He also must wait twice as long with each emerald before his power resets. His physical capabilities are not affected at all.

Super form - Void Graviton: If all 7 Gyro Emeralds are collected, Graviton can harness their energy and unlock his ultimate power. His fur becomes a pale green, his eyes turn a bright gold and his facial features are sharpened. His quills become noticeably longer, curve upwards as if his power is being used and appear to float. A black vortex crackling with energy shrouds him. His muscular density is increased and his voice gains an echo. He is granted the power of flight by utilizing anti-gravity energy and can fly for long amounts of time at rather fast speeds, reaching up to 250 mph. His physical power is increased dramatically, able to pull of incredible feats of herculean strength and lift or throw things many times his size with ease. His agility is augmented as well, able to deal his deadly strikes with blistering speed. His durability is increased also, able to withstand his maximized weight of 3,240 pounds, although his mobility would be hindered greatly at that point. His force-field has increased range and can be used while in motion. His power is seemingly limitless in this form, and having access to 35 Gyro Spheres makes him no easy opponent to overcome. Unlike most Super forms, this does not use 50 rings as a trigger. Instead, it's his own life force that fuels the form and can be achieved at will as long as he has the full power of all 7 emeralds. This form lasts only a mere couple of minutes and once its duration is over, the emeralds become colorless and Graviton is rendered unconscious for prolonged amounts of time. This form has one final trump card in its disposal.

Gyro Blast: This devastating attack requires his remaining Super form power. Graviton can generate his own miniature Black Hole that reaches a 35 yard radius. Anything caught in this vortex would most likely be crushed into oblivion. Anything within a close proximity could possibly be pulled in from the intense gravity. The Black Hole will shrink then vanish after a short-lived time. This takes considerable amounts of power plus a rather lengthy charge up time. If too much power is placed into this, he runs the risk of being absorbed into the void as well.

Weaknesses: Although his kinetic power is strong, it is impossible to even use without at least one Gyro Emerald in close proximity. His kinetic ability also uses huge amounts of power and he can find himself completely drained if he's careless. Due to the constant shifting of gravity, Graviton has little to no sense of balance. If a direct strike were to occur on the direct center of any of his markings, his kinetic power would be disabled for a prolonged amount of time and he himself would be momentarily stunned. Although wet or rainy environments or shallow bodies of water will not hinder him, Graviton is no swimmer and will sink significantly. Graviton's combat ability only covers close to mid-range. His options would be limited against an opponent with long range tactics. Despite his durability, his defensive capabilities such as blocking and evading are poor. If a foe were to capitalize the weakness, Graviton's chance of victory could be slim. Even though he is well aware of his body's limits, his determination to win a fight will frequently overlook this and he could be left in a vulnerable position. His most prominent weakness is his lack of combat experience. Graviton has spent his life only training. It is unknown to him if the battle tactics he formed will even be useful in an actual fight.

Combat style: Graviton relies heavily on offensive tactics. He can quickly overpower a foe with his quick and deadly strikes which can be quite lengthy at times. Alternating between heavy and light attacks, he focuses on pressuring a foe with these combos and targets crucial areas such as the stomach, chest and face region.

Backstory: After the heroes of Earth prevailed against evil, the Chaos Emeralds were scattered. The purple emerald drifted off into space and was lost in time. It traveled through the infinite vastness for what appeared like an eternity until it came across a Black Hole. The intense gravity caused the emerald to be consumed. While inside, the Chaos energies were combined with the power of the Black Hole and began to form a new emerald. The power was identical, only the Chaos energies shifted, creating a Gyro Emerald. Since the Black Hole could not handle the limitless power of the two stones, they were both sent back at the original trajectory with intense speed. The two reached Earth in a flash and upon breaching the atmosphere; they hurled towards the ground at different directions and struck like a meteor. A delayed effect of the Black Hole began happening just then. A dark violet hedgehog composed of Gyrokinetic energies spawned from the Gyro Emerald. The DNA of Sonic the hedgehog was on the Chaos Emerald which was transferred to the new emerald upon contact with the Black Hole. This dark violet hedgehog did not possess any abilities or memories of the Blue Blur, but simply hedgehog genes and the language of this planet.

He had no idea who he was, where he came from or what his purpose was for that matter. What he did know was that he possessed an uncanny ability and he was spawned from that emerald. He felt the need to take the stone with him and crawled out of the crater that had formed. In his mind, he felt destined to harness his power to become a formidable warrior. Since he had nothing to go by, he began to train himself and aimlessly wander the distant lands. He soon discovered his power was linked directly to the Gyro Emerald. With something unstable such as gravity, seven years passed before he learned to simply maintain his power without it getting out of control. This is the moment his strength rapidly increased. After an additional five years of training, he felt his power had reached its peak, but still felt as if ultimate power was far from his grasp. Currently, he seeking worthy opponents to test his abilities.
