Sticks the Badger

Sticks the Badger is a fictional character appearing in the Sonic the Hedgehog franchise, first introduced as a main character in the animated Sonic Boom television series.

She is an orange and brown badger skilled in the use of boomerangs who comes from the jungle. Sticks is a paranoid individual of wild habits, who enjoys digging through garbage and looking at shiny objects, and is a force of nature in every way. While she may at times seem insane, her madness does occasionally stray into genius, allowing her to find solutions which no one else could have thought of.

Iago PUC's ideas

 * Sticks appears in James Cameron's Sonic Cinematic Universe, voiced and motion captured by . First appearing in Sally and the Freedom Fighters and then in Sonic World Run.
 * Sticks also appears as a guest character in Marvel's Spider-Man: Webbed Champion, voiced by Misty Lee. Appearing among the Sonic the Hedgehog franchise characters in the crossover multi-part finale "Legendary Universes", she is a member of the Freedom Fighters under Sonic's leadership.
 * Officially appearing in "Legendary Universes, Part 3: Unlimited Speed", she and her fellow Freedom Fighters help Spider-Man's team defeat EggRobo and Dr. Robotnik and solve the origins of Jarvis' robot body. During the episode, she becomes very close friends and partners with Michelle Jones / Wave.
 * Later, she appears again in "Part 6: Ultimate Alliance" as one of the main heroes from the parallel dimensions who join the Champions and Avengers in the final battle against the Regent's army from the Negative Zone.

Personality
Sticks is energetic, free-spirited, and primal. She has sharp animal instincts, is a fearsome combatant, a tenacious hunter, and will enter a feral frenzy when she is angry. Because of her isolated life, Sticks has become off-kilted, obtuse, mental and just plain nutty, and she thinks others are living in an alternate world different from the normal one, something that unnerves friends and enemies alike. While Sticks recognizes that she is a kook, she does not like having herself and her ideas written off as crazy by default (as she often turns out to be right).

In spite of her background, Sticks is intelligent, especially when in her right element, though her manner of speaking comes off as strange to other people as she speaks in a primitive dialect she taught herself. Also, there is a definite method in much of her madness, and her hair-brained ideas can sometimes be strokes of brilliance that lead to solutions that no one else could have thought of. Due to living in the jungle, Sticks has no concept of formal behavior, a fact she is aware of and worries will embarrass her in fancy situations). She is also disgusted by anything cute, adorable and fuzzy. Despite this she has no problems with Miss Tomatopotamus and found the idea of Tails being in love adorable.

While not quite a tomboy, Sticks is far from feminine and has no understanding of this concept, as demonstrated when she confessed she did not know how to act like a lady. However, she does have her rare moments of girly-ness. She loves spending time in her burrow and returns to it for safety when a situation becomes too bizarre for her. Like Tails, she is passionate about arts and crafts and makes things from what she finds in nature. Unlike Tails though, Sticks usually considers technology her enemy because it "can't be trusted." Regardless of her standpoints however, she is willing to compromise her principles for the right reasons. She has also curiously enough displayed an unlikely amount of affection for otherwise dangerous or disgusting robots, such as D-Fekt and Buster.
