Backstory
Originally from an idea I had for a Sonic X reboot, Cameron is a 15-year-old human girl who lives in a secluded cottage with her older cousin Erin. In SA1, she discovers Tails after his crash and nursed him back to health before returning him to Sonic. Because of the badniks invading her home she decides to join up with them to stop Eggman from taking over the city. Along the way she discovers a knack for archery and some clues pointing to the whereabouts of her parents and uncle, who went missing during an expedition to Soleanna a few years back.
Personality

- Introverted
- Learns to let loose
- Blunt when it comes to her opinions
- Sometimes expresses low confidence at times
- Mellow and soft-spoken
- Plucky
- Claustrophobic
- Bit of a neat freak because she doesn't like to attract bugs
- Expresses a thirst for adventure
- Can be pretty steely when angered
Hobbies and Interests
- Photography

- Surfing
- Collecting seashells
- Pizza
- Root beer
- Onion rings
- Scrapbooking
- Skating
- Works part time at a diner
- Playing her flute and drums
- Archery (she feels like a badass and likes to collect arrows)
- Traveling
- Skinny dipping on a hot Summer's evening or for privacy (her most shameful secret!)
- The colors green and blue
- Lemonade
Pet Peeves and Least Favorite Things
- Pickles
- Badniks invading her island
- Humidity
- Cold temps and snow
- Being underestimated because she doesn't have powers
- Gross things like bugs and slime
- Overly bright colors like neon orange and green (they hurt her eyes)
- Stubbing her toe
- People telling her that her parents and uncle won't come back
- Losing hope
- Closed up spaces
- Her camera malfunctioning
- Spoiled entitled behavior
Powers and Abilities
- Bow and arrow are her main weapons
- Hand to hand combat
- Athleticism
- Power Ups
- Hold her breath for extended periods of time (helping when in water levels; still need air bubbles)
- She can even weaponize her camera by turning the flash up bright to blind enemies
- Not the fastest nor strongest but has a healthy balance to keep up
- Learns to use Extreme Gear
Misc
- Cameron's surname is a reference to SEGA
- Her official ethnicity is African American but for the sake of my sanity her race will not be brought up constantly because I'm not here to earn social justice brownie points
- Cameron wears blue, green and oranges because I noticed how Sonic females tend to wear pink, purple and red and wanted her style to fit the games since there's not a female character yet who's associated with other colors besides those three
- A lot of people think that Cam and Erin aren't related because they look very different (Erin is a light-skinned redhead), which sometimes annoys her
- Out of the characters Cam has the most costume changes as she wears bathing suits, coats and winter gear, and other outfits depending on zone; she even begins carrying a bag to hold her outfits in
- She has a more mellow, humble personality to make her stand out from the other hammy, prideful and vibrant characters
- Cam documents her adventures through scrapbooking
- Her ultimate goal in the series is to find out what really happened to her family. This will eventually be resolved in Sonic 06 (spoilers: there's a happy ending)
- Also, Cameron and Sonic will be a couple but as always for my canon/OC ships, it's going to be a slow burn. Also I might tag as trigger warning for interspecies since some people still haven't got over SonElise.
- In SA1, Cameron received arrows with powers based on the stage. So for example, in Ice Cap she gets ice arrows, in Red Mountain fire arrows, Windy Valley has wind and leaves arrows, and Emerald Coast has her default arrows
- She doesn't have an ability type because I think it's outdated by now and limits potential
- I based her color scheme on the concept of Chromatic Arrangement. Sonic = blue, Tails = yellow, Knuckles = red, so it would make sense for another major character to be green (I don't count Jet and Vector). In SA Amy and Big round it out as "pink" and "purple."
- I guess Cam could technically count as a superhero even though she doesn't have the credentials of one (i.e costume, secret identity, edgy 90s redesign and bad Rob Liefield art)
- I based her SA/default costume from the styles that were popular in the late 90s and early 2000s since that's the era when the games came out
- Cam and Erin splits the bills, which is why they both have jobs since their parents aren't around. They end up getting rewarded money (SA2 by the president) which they then save up to go to Soleanna
- Cameron doesn't really consider Team Dark to be her friends, but she doesn't see them as enemies either
- She doesn't hate Amy either; she's more amused by Amy's worship for Sonic but does try to help her temper the obsession when it gets too much
- Cam eventually starts to see Tails and Knuckles as the brothers she never had, so she's protective of them; although her first impression of Knuckles was "Does he and Sonic fight every time they see each other?"
- I was inspired by Saphira24667's OC Saphira to make Cam and Sonic a couple because while I don't hate pairings like Sonally and Shadamy, I just want to do my own thing. Besides people will still find fault with it because it's canon/OC, so it's not like I have much to lose. No, I do not support beastiality but Sonic is at least sapient enough and people get away with Shadow/Maria.
- Originally my OC was going to be a Caucasian girl with long, wavy orange hair and a more "yoga instructor" design. Her names were also going to be Verna, Jade, Kelly, Celadon or Esmeralda, and her last name was going to be Greene. However I felt that having her be named after a shade of green and have a last name that literally is GREEN would be too much overkill so I changed her name and design. I also added more colors like blue and coral to give her a tropical aesthetic.
- Her theme in the SA games is Lauryn Hill's song "That Thing" which thankfully came out before SA was released in Japan (I tend to go extremely meta with my characters)
- One very old idea I had for her was for her to be a poodle with water powers to contrast her with Blaze; she's still associated with water though she doesn't have any powers
- Another old idea was for her to be a porcupine named Penny who had the power to control metal. The metal powers got carried over to my Shinkenger OC Ayane.
- I intended for Cam to be the total opposite of Chris Thorndyke as she actually has relatable problems, a character arc, and a likable and sympathetic personality.
- Cam weighs 121 pounds, so she has a canon weight compared to female Sonic characters
- In Sonic 06 Cam and Sonic becomes an official item (Amy will still be treated with dignity and respect as I hate ship wars)
- I have yet decided on what kind of power ups to give her

Tagged by @popeeandthewolfzurkus (thank you for tagging me i’ve never done this before)
Tag nine people you want to know better.
Relationship Status: Solo Yolo
Favorite Colors: Pink, Yellow and Orange
Lipstick and Chapstick: I’m not exactly sure what that is but Chapstick
Last Song I Listened To: TRIal Heart from PriPara
Last Movie I Watched: Leap/Ballerina
Top 3 Characters:
- Zera (from Fairy Tail) because she is such a caring person who wanted to learn from mistakes and was willing to make up for them. She isn’t exactly real, yet she felt so alive despite being merely an illusion, and her attitude and sweet interactions with Mavis makes me wish I had my own Zera.
- Blaze (from the Sonic the Hedgehog Series) because watching her grow and adapt to the idea of friendship was fun to see. Her overall cold yet kind personality and interactions with Silver made me adore this character because of how much potential she has and I want to see her interact with more characters just to see more sides of her. Plus she is mad strong too.
- Peko Pekoyama (from Super Danganronpa 2) because while she doesn’t do much in terms of relatable character traits or interesting moments, the way she whole-heartedly takes her role without second thought and dedication to her master and the possible longing she has to be treated as a person made me fall apart during her execution and trial. Also I have a thing for braided girls.
Top 3 Ships:
- MariChat (Marinette X Chat Noir) honestly I want to see these two interact more because it’s so fun when they do. This is like, the most casual way for Adrien and Marinette to talk.
- Bumblebee (Yang Xiao Long X Blake Belladona) I’m not exactly sure why I like this so much but their interactions can be both so sweet and so chill and i love it. Yang was there when Blake was so messed up and confused and she knew just how to help because she had the same experience and i love it
- SilvAze (Silver X Blaze) Even though Sonic 06 didn’t portray much about their friendship, knowing they had each other’s back meant everything to me. Blaze is the perfect partner for Silver in their quest to save the world and the possibilities and interactions they have based on their personalities would be awesome to see. I like to see them romantically because of how important they are to each other and how it can develop them as characters
Books I’m Currently Reading: I don’t read books sorry
I will tag: @niconicousagi @miuki15 @sayelin @mamabearchan @timidandsmol @saphira24667
