Character Name/Alias: Dr. Robotnik
Character age: 50s
Canon: Sonic Cinematic Universe
Canon point: end of movie 2 final battle
History: here
Appearance: here
Personality: Life's hard when you're the smartest person in the world.
Dr. Ivo Robotnik is a literal genius, with five PhDs and an IQ that's "off the charts." With an ego to match, it can create a pretty dangerous combination. The man is a strange one indeed, and despite his incredible skills and impeccable track record he was generally a last choice when sent out on jobs for the government. Deemed a "psychological tire fire" by the very people who employed him at the time and were loath to utilize him, Robotnik is still a pioneer of revolutionary drone technology and there's nothing anyone can do about it.
Like any good (or bad) villain he's got himself an origin story: when a bully punched him in the face as a child it showed him just how cruel the world was. He determined he had no choice but to utilize his intelligence to be nothing but cruel in return in the face of a world that stood against him, and he's carried that through his life. He's rude, dismissive, and likes to lord his intellect over others at every chance he can get. If he gets the opportunity to insult someone, he'll certainly take it. He gets frustrated easily as well, often finding the need to yell at someone.
He vastly prefers the company of robots, referring to the ones he built as his babies, and treating them a hell of a lot better than he'd ever treat a person. He constantly talks about how much better they are. Robots, after all, don't have all the problems people do. Humans are largely too stupid for him, and he's certainly not afraid to tell them that. Constantly, even. His machines are everything to him.
While he's certainly not the most pleasant person to be around, it doesn't mean he can't have fun. He's particularly fond of music, and has a large collection of playlists to fit a number of moods. Sure, those moods might include "Heavy Metal Bombing Over Babylon" and "Soulful Chamber Music of Oppression," but they're moods. To go along with that, he likes dancing, and is happy to bust out a few moves while he's working. While he generally hates people, he can occasionally be something resembling nice to his assistant, Agent Stone. Even if that just means screaming at him about how much he loves his fancy lattes. He still keeps him around for a reason, after all, and somebody had to handle the Robotnik Manifesto while he was gone.
Despite his scientific (and assholish) nature he's incredibly eccentric and even playful, making robot noises or pretending a virtual t-rex has bitten his head off. He's loud, dramatic, poses a lot, and makes a lot of faces, as a character portrayed by Jim Carrey is wont to do. His insults often enter the realm of "very very silly" and he's not afraid to make a bad pun every now and again. But while he's silly, he can also be particularly threatening. He might seem like a cartoonish villain, but he has absolutely no issue with potentially causing property damage or injury or death (or "worse," according to him). He can be slapstick one moment and ready to have his robots shoot to kill the next. The time spent marooned alone on a distant planet didn't do his eccentricity any favors, either.
When there's something he wants, he can be very singleminded and obsessive, causing more logical solutions to fly out the window as he relentlessly tries to hunt down his prize. Take the first incident with Sonic: At first, he was just sent in for a job, and he was more interested in throwing his intellect around as he worked to stop the threat. As he found out just what he was after and how much power it had, he decided he needed it for himself, and that became his main focus over anything else. He'd stop at nothing to get that power, utilizing every resource he had to pursue it, whether it was a good idea or not. And after that whole fiasco, imagine having to basically do it all over again, just without government funding.
His obsession is what ultimately causes his downfall, and eventually he's defeated by the very creature he's been trying to stop (and the power of friendship). Twice! However, he's extremely persistent, and he won't let a little thing like losing stop him, even if everything he's worked for ends up destroyed and he finds himself marooned on a distant planet, or he loses his chance at ultimate power.
What did they do to end up here?: Take your pick! He's responsible for a number of war crimes, and then of course there's his relentless attempts at murdering innocent aliens in order to steal power. Plus he's just a jerk.
Powers / Abilities: He doesn't have any special powers without outside help, but he does have a ludicrously high IQ (which he, of course, lords over everyone else). He's also very skilled in machinery and robotics, and he can throw someone out of a window if necessary.
Inventory: One pair of electronic control gloves, one teeny-tiny scanner drone, and one pair of goggles that inexplicably stick to the forehead.
