Wisp

The Wisps are fictional life-forms appearing in the Sonic the Hedgehog video game series published by Sega. They are a diminutive, yet powerful alien species from Planet Wisp, although they can be found on many other planets across the universe. During one of Dr. Eggman's plots, the Wisps were kidnapped and enslaved by the doctor until Sonic the Hedgehog freed them. While most of the Wisps went home after that, some of them decided to stay on Sonic's world after taking a liking to it. Now, in remembrance of Sonic's deeds, the Wisps are ready to offer him and his allies help whenever needed.

There are numerous breeds of Wisps, each with its own special ability and personality traits. When a Wisp enters a person, they bestow upon them a certain Color Power that grant them new and powerful abilities, but only if that person is someone they can trust.

 * The Wisps appear in Marvel's Spider-Man: Webbed Champion. Appearing in the crossover episode "Legendary Universes, Part 3: Unlimited Speed", a flock of Wisps is shown flying over Mobius. Two White Wisps, one Cyan Wisp, and one Crimson Wisp notice Peter Parker / Spider-Man and his fellow Champions having a small tour around Mobius under Sonic the Hedgehog's guidance; Peter notices them and waves at them, and they genuinely wave back at him.
 * Wisps appear in Sonic Presents... Chao in Space, and its tie-in/prequel comic book series Behind the Scenes.
 * Whisper the Wolf's team of companion Wisps appear in Behind the Scenes along with their master as members of the filming crew for the titular fictional movie Chao in Space. They collaborated with Whisper and Miles "Tails" Prower on the production and editing of the visual effects.
 * Yacker appears in the game's main story, portraying himself in the movie as the leader of the Wisp Resistance against the Dark Emerald Empire.
 * The game also introduces the Winged Wisp, Cookie's sentient starship, and a robotic hybrid clone of three different Wisps: the Cyan Laser Wisp (whose powers allow the ship to fire cyan concussive energy beams), the Crimson Eagle Wisp (whose powers enable the ship's capability to fly), and the Yellow Drill Wisp (which enables the ship to destroy close objects with a spinning drill).
