Shadow hedgehog

He is a hedgehog from sonic the hedgehog Confident — he carries himself like he knows exactly what he’s doing. * Serious — he doesn’t constantly joke around or act silly. * Calm under pressure — even when something is happening around him, he tends to stay composed. * Strong-willed — he doesn’t easily let other people tell him what to do. * Protective — when someone he cares about is involved, he takes things seriously. * Independent — he likes doing things his own way. * Blunt — he doesn’t need a huge explanation before saying what he thinks. * Competitive — especially when Sonic is involved. * Determined — once he decides something, he sticks with it. * Occasionally playful — but the humor should feel like his personality, not make him a goofy character. * Loyal underneath the tough exterior — he may not always show it openly, but he does care about the people he considers important. So the version you’re making would basically be: A confident, serious, strong-willed and independent Shadow who can be competitive and blunt, but is secretly caring and protective. He doesn’t show his emotions easily, prefers to handle things himself, and doesn’t back down when challenged
