Stop the applications! I finally chose the final cast of characters. Now, this will be taken off when I post the first chapter, but I wanted everyone to get a good look of everyone that's going to be on here.
Names of the creators are on top of each character respectively.
(Solaris Prime)
Name: Gail
Species: Hedgehog
Primary color: Hot pink
Age: 17
Special physical features: None
Special attributes: Has knowledge of bioengineering and has the ability to run at super sonic speeds.
Personality: Gail is a 'down to earth' type of person. She always assesses the situation at hand and plans accordingly. However, she has a caring motherly side to her and it shows towards the youngest of the CR members.
Background: Gail was there during the first attack from Ragnarok 9 years ago. She watched as her life crumbled before her. Her mother was shot, father cut apart, and her big brother was crushed underneath Ragnarok's own foot. She barely managed to escape, beaten from debris and cut from sharp remains. She made her way to an isolated forest, one that was never named, and there she found other survivors.
These people were enraged by the attack and vowed to fight back. Liking the idea, Gail wanted to join as well, but she was denied. Instead, the allowed her shelter and food for as long as she needed as they built their base. However, this didn't stop her. She wanted to fight as well.
For four years, Gail trained and studied. She wanted to prove herself to the higher ups and to make them see that she's more than just some fragile little girl. That was when she created her first successful experiment on her 13th birthday.
Using knowledge of genetics and anatomy, she developed a serum to enhance her body. The only part she didn't know what what part of her body to enhance. She read many book of fiction, legends, and history, eventually finding a book about a hedgehog who with quick wits and even quicker speed, he was able to foil a notoriously evil scientist every time during his life. His name was Sonic: Sonic the Hedgehog.
Not long after, she modified the serum to follow Sonic's footsteps. Then, with full confidence, she injected the serum into herself, waiting to see if it was indeed a success. She made a test run, but found no difference in her speed. With a disappointed heart, she turned in that day.
However, the next morning was a different story. As she walked around the base, one of the members lost their footing while working on a security camera. Gail was on the far side of the room, but she started running. In a flash, she was under the member and caught them with difficulty, but saved them from much injury. With surprise from both her and everyone else, her experiment was truly a success.
Not long after, she was brought up to the heads for evaluation. With her new found ability they considered her useful for recon, which is where she started out. But during the years of attacks from Ragnarok's forces, she proven herself even in the battlefield. To this day, she is well respected across the entire Resistance, nicknamed by some as the 'Hot Pink Wind' in response to her similarity of the legendary 'Blue Blur'.
Usual attire: Gail keeps her attire simple with a white tank top, denim shorts, and red shoes with white stripes on the sides of them.
(Solaris Prime)
Name: Shade
Species: Wolf
Primary color: Black
Age: 21 years of age
Special Physical Features: Shade has complete heterochromia, a genetic disorder that gives him two different colored eyes. His right is blue, but his left is green.
Special attributes: Has a unique sense of presence. He can tell if someone is nearby nearly 100 yards away if he really tries.
Personality: Shade is very quite and rarely speaks. There is usually a serious air about him most of the time, but there are times when one can break a smile out of him.
Background: Only a few of the Chaos Resistance knows of his background, but Shade wishes to keep it that way. However, even for those who do know, they treat him the same as everyone else. Apparently it isn't a dark secret, but it seems to be one he is not entirely proud of.
Usual attire: Shade favors a red vest, light gray pants that leaves his tail loose, and gray shoes.
(Solaris Prime)
Name: Decimetro 'Deci' Prowess
Species: Fox
Primary color: Light brown
Age: 11 years of age
Special physical features: None
Special attributes: A genius in the fields of bioengineering and biotechnology. His base knowledge came from Gail, but the rest came naturally.
Personality: Though very serious when it comes to his experiments, Deci is a very optimistic fox with dreams of a peaceful future. There is no situation that is hopeless to him, driving him to one day create a formula which will heal any and all sickness and stimulate the body to never allow a sickness to enter ever again. Until then, he puts all of his time and energy to helping his best friend Gail and the rest of the Chaos Resistance.
Background: Decimetro Prowess was once in a happy family living in a secluded forest of Mobius. At the tender age of nine, Ragnarok's robot army cut and burned down the forest. This forced Decimetro to be separated from his family as they ran for safety. However, as the young fox made it out, his family did not. He was devastated, but after two days of mindless wandering, he ran into Gail the Hedgehog.
The female hedgehog could tell Decimetro went through a lot and sheltered him, the motherly side of her showing and comforting the young fox. After some time, Gail nicknamed him Deci and taught him all she knew about science, but Deci quickly progressed and performed experiments even she couldn't believe. Two years later, he became the brains of the Chaos Resistance and is looked up to by the youngest residents of nearby towns.
Usual attire: The light brown fox usually fancies an orange bandana around his neck and a tan vest covering his torso. His shoes are a tainted red color with white on the tips, reflecting the shoes of an old two-tailed hero lost in legend.
(Solaris Prime)
Name: Vanessa the Echidna (a.k.a. 'Van')
Species: Echidna
Primary color: Dark gray
Age: 20 years of age
Special physical features: Half of her body is mechanical. (Details in the background.)
Special attributes: Being part robotic, Vanessa is amazingly strong in her left robotic arm, but it doesn't mean she is weak in her organic right arm. Other robotic parts of her body holds little effect, but can act as extra defense.
Personality: Vanessa is very laid back and is hard to temper. However, she has strong convictions about looking after others in need. She tries to keep a cool air about herself, often insulting her opponent during a fight or making wisecracks during a conversation. But no matter the case, she always has good intentions.
Background: Vanessa traveled the world of Mobius since the age of 16. She was orphaned for as long as she could remember and was never adopted throughout her years in an orphanage. On her sixteenth birthday, she ran away, longing for freedom and yearning for a life in the world.
For two years she made a living doing jobs such as exploration and treasure hunting, enjoying seeing the world and the history it has. However, when Ragnarok started to take over, she was captured and used for an experiment to turn residents of Mobius into robots for his army. Vanessa, however, escaped during the process, but in return her left arm, right leg, and part of her torso was now robotic. Thankfully, they did not install a tracking device in her, but she loathed it none the less.
Two years later, she ran into Gail the Hedgehog, who attacked Vanessa believing Vanessa was a robot in disguise. After a minute, Gail ceased and listened to Vanessa. After hearing her story, Gail brought the female echidna back to Chaos Resistance HQ and introduced her to the head. The head was intrigued, and invited Vanessa to join the CR, which Vanessa quickly accepted.
Usual attire: Vanessa usually wears a white tank top and long brown pants. Her shoes are a dull gray without any special patterns, but she finds it suiting since on leg is metal anyway.
(ShadowStarwolf)
Name: Dusk
Species: Wolf
Primary color: Black and red, amber eyes
Age: 17
Special physical features: She carries a gun that her father had given her.
Special attributes: She can hack through any security without any trouble, adjust to darkness rather quickly, and is well skilled in handling firearms.
Personality: Quiet and serious. She hardly smiles, but the only people who can make her smile is her father and Shade.
Background: She lost her home and her mom died of cancer during the war. Her father turned depressed of losing his wife and he went to drinking binges. However, he became sober, but one day he went missing and Dusk never saw him again.
One evening, as Dusk was walking through the bare streets of an abandoned city, she ran into a patrol of Ragnarok's robots. Knowing what they were, she whipped out her gun and started shooting, not paying attention to her low ammunition. She disabled two of them, three more taking cover during her frenzy. She was getting close, but as she rounded the corner to shoot one in the head, she was out of ammo. Things quickly turned as she was thrown against the remains of a wall.
The situation was bleak as one of the robots raised their own gun to her head point blank. But before the mechanical finger could pull the trigger, the rest of the robots were suddenly cut in half. At first, Dusk was confused, but she was answered when another wolf jumped down from above, his eyes fixed on her.
After a long conversation, Dusk found out the black wolf's name was Shade and was a member of the Chaos Resistance. Intrigued, Dusk wanted to join, but Shade didn't find it a good idea at first. He tried to talk her out of it, but Dusk's determination got the better of him. Now, she is the sharpshooter of the Resistance, working in many kinds of operations.
Usual attire: A black low cut top showing some midriff, wears black shorts with a metal chain belt, and black combat boots.
(Mikaela the Cat) (Don't be trolls.)
Name: Mikaela
Species: Cat
Primary color: light gray with black tipped ears and tail
Age: 16
Special physical features: A locket with the face of a feral cat on the front. It contains the pictures of her parents.
Special attributes: Mikaela is a hard worker. When she is ordered by someone (on the good side) to do something, she'll go right into doing it, blocking her mind from anything else unless something urgent comes up.
Thanks to Deci, Mikaela was given a special mechanism that can fully cloak herself and/or create a type of force field around herself. This was done by request, which Deci was happy to try something new for a fellow member.
She also knows First Aid, often being called into the infirmary when needed.
Personality: Mikaela was a cheerful girl before her parents died. But now, she is gloomy, and doesn't really appreciate if someone is showing off, or trying to goofily cheer her up.

She doesn't want anyone else to be upset.

One day, when her father and her were out and about to play tennis, Mikaela was showing her dad a gem she had found at the impromptu digging site her class went to. It was rectangular, and blue, but not a Sol Emerald or a Chaos Emerald. It was a new Energy Gem called the River Sapphire. Her father was holding the Sapphire when a shot rang out. They looked towards the source of the shot and saw one of the Ragnarok robots. It aimed and let another shot fly. Her father took the bullet in the side and fell to the ground. Mikaela cried out in disbelief. She looked at the robot, and wanted to flee, but couldn't. So she attacked the lone robot with their tennis rackets, and in the end, the robot was a mangled heap and the rackets were torn up and useless.
Mikaela then went to her father, who was laying on his back, struggling for breath. She had never seen him so weak. He was clutching the River Sapphire to his chest. Mikaela fell to her knees and crawled over to him. She was incredibly grief stricken. He looked at her with his miss-matched eyes and smiled, even though tears were flowing from his eyes. "I…I will…*always* be…with you…" he panted. The sclera of his eyes glowed blue once before he closed his eyes and released his last breath.
Mikaela vowed revenge for her father against Ragnarok.
Usual attire: Mikaela usually wears a black sleeveless hoodie with a blue shirt underneath; black cargo pants, and navy blue sneakers with blue highlights. She wears long blue-and-black striped fingerless gloves that go up past her elbows.

Personality: Kris has a funny sense of humor. He loves to play pranks and scare people, but now that he's a 'ghost', he might freak someone out if that person is not used to him. But he is a good soul, and loves to help out. He also can get angry if he sees someone misbehaving.

(V. Cristina)
Name: Layla
Species: Cat
Primary color: Black fur, with white fur on her belly and on the tip of her tail.
Age: 24
Special physical features: A few scars along her arms from melee combat; her left knee was injured during a bad fall and occasionally locks up.
Special attributes: Layla is a melee fighter, mostly with daggers and short swords, but uses her claws if she has nothing else to work with. She's intended as an assassin-like character; she's gotten good at being unnoticed and stealthy.
Personality: She's usually quiet and keeps to herself; prefers to work alone. She isn't shy, just unsociable. Layla tends to be bitter, but looks on the resistance effort with optimism ("As long as we fight, we haven't lost"). If she's comfortable around other characters, she'll speak more openly with a dark, mildly inappropriate sense of humor. She's uncomfortable around children and is hydrophobic.
Background: Layla hails from a small, riverside farming town on the edge of a forest. When she was young, she nearly drowned in the river, leading to her fear of water. She left home at age 16, a year after her father; he took a small group of farmers-turned-warriors to battle against Ragnarok, but hasn't been heard from since. Now, she assumes him dead. Her hometown was unaffected by the war when she left, but has since been destroyed (when she was about 21). She has heard no word of the rest of her family and also assumes them to be dead.
Layla traveled around Mobius for many years; she learned combat from others as she traveled to develop her skills as an self-proclaimed assassin, and has done solo-missions when she could get close enough to a target/minion of Ragnarok. She only recently stopped feeling guilt for her victims. During one job, around age 19, as she stalked a target by rooftop, she fell; her left leg and arm were broken and her knee never fully recovered due to lack of proper medical care.
Layla has applied to join the Chaos Resistance, hoping to better herself and make more of a difference in the war.
Usual attire: Short black boots, black pants, dark gray sleeveless hoodie, black gloves (all dark colors to better blend in as an assassin) "utility belt"; usually has a small first aid kid, throwing knives, and a line of rope.
(WhiteBladeZero)
Name: Angela
Species: Hedgehog
Primary color: Blue-green
Age: 17
Special physical features: A beam saber, her signature weapon even since she started training as a swordsman. (Or is that swords-woman?)
Special attributes: Angela is a very skilled fighter. With her saber, she can cut through any opponent with ease and grace.
Personality: Angela is very withdrawn, only speaking when spoken to. She likes working alone, wanting to be set on the mission and nothing else, but when someone else comes into play, her attention is set on making sure they are safe, which can compromise the task at hand. The only time she'll work with someone is when circumstances dictate otherwise.
Background: Angela lost her sister, Crystal, at the age of 5. Since then, she had been less cheery, but her sister's boyfriend, Slash, decided to try and fill that hole by spending time with her and teaching her to become as strong as her sister and to be a great swordsman like him. The training went well too.
However, when she was 13, Ragnarok caused a huge explosion and Slash was caught in the middle of it. Since then, Angela changed from a sweet, innocent little girl to a strong, hard, reckless warrior.
She started working as a vigilante, destroying any of Ragnarok's robots whenever she had the chance in hopes to advance into Ragnarok's stronghold. But she never made progress. That's when she found the Chaos Resistance. She joined and later became friends with Gail. Sharing similar pasts with someone gave Angela a kind of comfort in knowing someone knew exactly what she had been and is going through.
Usual attire: Angela wears a pink tank top, hot pink gloves, a blue skirt, and purple socks that slightly overlap her red and yellow shoes.
Honestly, I was surprised at the number of hawks, foxes, and wolves that were applied for this story. (Not to mention how many supposed cross-breeds. UGH!) I was expecting a bunch of different breeds. Heck, I even expected a few bats, but nope. Well, congrats to those who made the list and a special thanks to WhiteBladeZero from YouTube for allowing me to use his character (Teen) Angela in this story.
And a thank YOU in advance for choosing to read my story.
