I've always envied people who can make a decent Sonic OC. Hell, I've always envied people who could do that Sonic art style. XD But I think I did a decent job this go round on both accounts.

Marvel The Star-Nose Mole (or just the Mole) is a pirate! Thumbs up if you get the reference...

Only, instead of sailing the seas or even crossing the skies, his ship scours the underground. He hunts for various treasures, relics, and all sorts of ancient goodies right under the nose of the world. Speaking of which, his nose can literally smell treasure. He's never seen a Chaos Emerald, but if he found one and sniffed one, he could act as a emerald radar like a certain echidna and his bat rival/lover.

Marvel has gotten into some scraps here and there. One cost him an eye, but a cave-in was what last him his arms. Thankfully, he managed to get himself a pair of mechanical claws. Before, he could cut through dirt as though it was water. But now? He can dig through dirt, stone, iron, steel, and much more! Now no treasure can escape his claws!

He looks like he could be the bad guy of a Sonic Game, but I see him more as a neutral force. He's not a minion of Eggman and he's not out for power or the world-he doesn't even know about the Chaos Emeralds yet. He just wants to treasure hunt, so he could be persuaded to be a friend of Sonic and co. after a wayward adventure and a run-in with Eggman.

He'd most likely be a power type since he can cut through just about anything with this mechanical hands.

I'm half-tempted to try and make more Sonic OCs, if only to fill out Marvel's crew.
