Fictional character biography

Knuckles.png

Knuckles is a strong red echidna who can punch through rocks.

He is the last living descendent of a clan of echidnas who guarded the chaos emeralds.

Because of this, he is a foe of those who he believes will steal the emeralds and a begrudging ally of those who aim to protect them.

This has made him both an ally and an enemy of characters such as Sonic the Hedgehog, Tails, and Amy Rose.
