So, I have a fan character, in the Sonic world, who is a thief. He'd obviously be after the Chaos Emeralds, right?
Nope. I wanted to give him a good damn reason to stay the fuck away from them, and this is it....
Power Rings are one thing, but even a single emerald can show that Cheshire has a very negative, very 'Fleetway' reaction to Chaos Energy...
He goes completely, psychopathic-ally Mad, and is a danger to himself and others (The latter moreso than the former), which he of course wants to avoid.
He's a thief, not a murderer, and he'd like to keep it that way.
