Mobian (Mobius Setting)
Mobian[edit]
A group of bandits take hostages within the local bank, demanding money, horses to get away on, and to keep one hostage as insurance to make sure they are not followed. As the town guard surrenders the bandits begin to make their get away. As the leave on their horses, one of them continues to hold the knife to their final hostage pressing for them not to be followed or he will kill him. Suddenly, there a loud gust of wind throughout the city. Faster than the bandits can blink, the hostage is no longer with them. Everyone looks around as a whistle is heard from atop a nearby building. A small blue anthropomorphic hedgehog stands atop with the hostage beside him, asking if he's alright. The bandits have lost their leverage.
Physical Description[edit]
Mobians are various anthropomorphic animals, resembling small humans mixed with an animal. The colors of their bodies often are a bright, solid, color. Oddly enough, mobians tend to like flashy shoes.
History[edit]
The mobians originate from the planet of Mobius, a world similar to Earth. On this planet there were 7 magical emeralds that could manipulate time and space and give one immense power. Every now and then however, Mobians can find themselves in other worlds, either by some tragic event, or by finding a way to come there by will. Some will even choose to stay and build a new home.
Society[edit]
Mobians have a society that is very similar to humans. On their home planet, they have many technological advancements, and have their own set of various traditions. Mobians tend to act and think like humans do and are about the same intelligence wise. Mobians believe in working together and using their unique skills as one. While they do vary in personality, most of them tend to be either, cheerful with high energy or calm and collected. They also tend to have a favorite food of some kind, some of them seeming unable to go through a single day without it, such as chili dogs or grapes. Mobians also have great love for nature, which is why their villages and towns will often be built around forests and lakes.
Mobian names[edit]
Mobians are regularly named most of the time, but sometimes their first name derives from their specific abilities. For example, a mobian with multiple tails will have the first name ‘Tails’. Mobians last names are almost always associated with their subrace. For example, if the creature would resemble a bear, then the character would be named “… The Bear”. Bird mobian last names may be more specific than other mobian races, as they have subraces within their subrace.
Male: Sonic the Hedgehog, Tails the Fox, Jet the Hawk, Storm the Albatross, Knuckles the Echidna
Female: Blaze the Cat, Wave the Swallow, Cream the Rabbit
