Guardian of the Master Emerald and the only one left of his tribe. Knuckles is strong, athletic, and a warrior. Trained in all forms of lethal combat, Knuckles sole purpose is to protect his people's treasure, the Master Emerald. His clan faced off against a rival Echidna tribe, until the two mysteriously disappeared.

Knock knock, it's Knuckles! I tired to incorporate more of his tribal origin into his design, and gave him some metal claw things that he had in SA2, some spikes on his boots to help him climb up walls, so his arms aren't doing all the work, and tried to make his muzzle look tanned, because he technically lives on a tropical island and is in the sun all day, guarding the Master Emerald.
