Kusa the echidna

Kusa is a friendly, light hearted, enthusiastic, strong tank member of Team Metal

Created by Dr. Eggman as a counterpart of Knuckles, “Metal Knuckles” was designed to match the echidna’s strenght and suprass him in speed. His design took a long time to complete, so after completing his main objective at racing (Sonic R plot) he did participate in some extra missions the doctor would give him before deactivating him.

It wasnt until years later that he was found and reactivated by Tails Doll. He manage to re-encounter with Metal Sonic too, gathering all the team together once more, leading to a set of events and adventures that would eventually lead him to take the decision/chance to transfer his AI into a organic body.

Keeping his strenght but losing his speed boost, Kusa is always up to be Metal’s companion in training. His metalic claws translated into long claws he can use to attack and dig very quickly. He was the only one who wasn’t sure about turning organic and is currently in a search to know his purpose in life. His new name was given by his friends, he still answers at the name “MK”
