Chapter Text
Name: Tani (taw-nee)
Gender: Nonbinary (They/Them)
Sexuality: Bisexual
Age: 11
Height: 2'11 w/boots (2'9 without)
Powesr: Ferrokinesis and Enhanced Hearing
Tani can move and control metal material with their mind. This is limited however. They can't bend it or change its shape, and they can't create metal out of thin air, which leads them to call it "Silver's psychokinesis but limited to only metal." They mainly use this to control their throwing knives, launching them into opponents. They also have enhanced hearing due to their bigger ears, being able to hear things that most people can't (like Rouge).
Personality:
Coming from destroyed future from destroyed future, Tani over time has grown to be cautious, distrusting, and a strong individual. Though they tend to keep to themselves and don't trust easy. Pretty much the only person that they fully trust is Silver. Actually... scratch that- Silver is the only person Tani fully trusts. Ever since he took them in and became the first person to treat them like, well... a person, Tani has become insanely overprotective of him, not hesitating to threaten anyone or anything that risks putting Silver in danger. Tani can be extremely blunt and sarcastic as well as nonchalant when it comes to fights and injuries, being used to brushing them off most of the time instead of literally anything else.
Since deciding to stay in the past however, Tani has definitely mellowed out from the aggressive and mindlessly violent fox they used to be. Sure, they still can be aggressive and violent from time to time, but now it tends to be whenever Silver or anyone that they can tolerate is in active danger. They still don't trust others easily though. That's a habit that'll take more than motivational talks to go away. Tani is however beginning to trust people like the Chaotix (minus Charmy) and Shadow. The road to healing isn't easy, though Tani knows that if they put in the effort to improve, they'll see more progress.
Random Facts:
- Tani used to not wear any clothes like most Sonic boys but started to wear clothes after feeling weird in the past seeing so many Mobians with clothes.
- They're terrified of being sick. Not germs, just being sick. None of the futures ever really had proper ways to treat sickness, so it was either you lived or you didn't.

- They sometimes get jealous of Silver's relationship with Espio, mainly because they know that they could never get that close to anyone.

- Rumors say that Big got them to genuinely laugh when not around Silver, but Tani's yet to confirm or deny anything.
