Armed to the teeth and with very little else, this purple punisher is under the command of a tubby tyrant against her will. But why is the Egg Man playing along with her delusions of Mobianity? And who is this mustached hedgehog in her dreams? Her father? Or something else...
Lynne Blacksand has gone through many transformations by my hand. But I like this one the most. There's something novel about her not realizing she's a machine. Her earliest memories were of Charles Hedgehog- colloquially known as 'Uncle Chuck'- talking about how proud he was of her. But now that Chuck is being held hostage by Eggman, she has to do whatever he pleases- defend his city from attack, assault GUN, and even capture Sonic the Hedgehog. Can she do it? Or will she be scrapped before she has a chance to learn the truth?

I do have one other one! It's rather old, though. Lemme see... ah! Here we go. http://www.furaffinity.net/view/264749/
She's a lot of fun to play with. :)

"And my boots would be a whole lot cooler, like, robot boots. Or something."
Yeah, the boots to give her a bit of a Megaman-esque feel, but it's a good thing. ^_^
But if she WERE to star in a game, what genre would the game be? High-speed platforming like the original Sonic games? Putting that blaster to good use like Megaman? Some sort of twisted attempt to mash the concepts of the Sonic universe into some kind of RPG?
...I probably still have concept sketches of that last one in a notebook somewhere. I was gonna use rings for HP... ~_~

Rings for HP and stuff? You gotta show us this! I'm hungry for details. :3
As for Lynne? I've always sort of held this conviction that Mobius is a fascinating world and it would be much more appreciable if we saw it through the eyes of someone who actually slowed down enough to traverse it rather than blasted through it like a maniac. So I'm thinking probably some sort of MetroidVania (freeroaming platformer with RPG elements), since she'd have to go and explore places like Robotropolis, the Great Forest, Etc.

"Rings as HP" could work for a Metroidvania too... And if the gun changes on a whim, that just means she's picking up new equipment. ^_~
As for "showing", even if I could find the page, I doubt you'd actually want to see it. My drawing skills are beyond sub-par. I love coming up with concepts and fleshing them out, even if I never have the time/energy to actually MAKE any of these games... I've got several notebooks filled with ideas, some having more pages than others. The Sonic RPG idea has, I think, probably about half a page... I couldn't really think of anything to flesh out, I think there's only one sketch of a screen layout, showing the battle screen as an isometric view (similar to SMRPG) and some labels. With boxes representing the characters to make it obvious it's isometric, since I can't draw well.
Metroidvania's one of my favorite genres of all time, so I've got about half a notebook devoted to an idea I'd been wanting to work on since the GBA days. Four characters that you can switch between Lost Vikings style, and have others play as well. The Lost Vikings influence was pretty big, with puzzles that would require multiple characters to solve (one page even had listed weights for the characters, for weight-activated plates) and each had their own play-style and specialties. But I'll likely never actually make it, which makes me a little sad... ^_^;;

Actually an EMP will take her out, interestingly. But her internals are so old that she's got a mechanically-timed hard reset button.
And the reason why she doesn't realize a machine despite MANY obvious giveaways is simply because... she doesn't want to. In order to experience illogical things like emotion and identity, her mind had to develop a subconscious. This subconscious actively keeps her from realizing this about herself, without her knowing it. Every time her artificial skin tears, for instance? She blanks out, repairs it mindlessly, then lies somewhere and 'wakes up' as if she were passed out and resting from a wound.

You know, if the whites of her eyes were the same color as the pupils, so all you saw was red rings in a sea of black.. that'd be really cool/evil looking.
(I totally made a character in Champions Online with eyes like that. P.S. Have you gotten your BF to let you play around with the costume editor on there? I haven't heard much from him, come to think of it. Is he still enjoying his play sessions?)

Very cute little character, and based on the comments I could totally see her in a Metroidvania or even a Megaman sort of game (though personal preference would lead towards the Metroidvania side).
And having considered such a thing, I almost want to do some related art or concepts, despite my already long list and obviously very slow nature =/
