Here is a topic related to Sonic Fanon in general. (and, I am NOT trying to start an argument. just discuss something in the fandom that I have noticed.) Now..OC's and FC's is already a touchy subject for ANY fandom. but, It's a unique case for the Sonic Fandom. I am talking of course about Human OC's (Not "Humanized" characters. but actual Humans.) because when it comes to Sonic OC's who are Humans, and not Anthropomorphic Animals. the odds of said characters gaining ANY recognition, much less popularity is slim. (It doesn't help that most major human characters in Sonic Canon haven't been well liked. which those like Chris Thornedyke, and Princess Elise facing the most criticism.) as despite said OC's being created for the Sonic Fandom.. most, if not all fandom moderators (EX: DeviantART Fan Groups) deny them due to not so obvious connection to the franchise. (which is completely understandable. given that "Sonic Style" mostly applies to animals, and Humans in 'Sonic Style' themselves aren't too easy to deviate from non-sonic fandoms.) It's getting that Sonic OC's either HAVE to be Animals to be recognized, and/or accepted. (which would sorta explaine the "Anthroized" concepts of Maria Robotnik, and such) OR, if they are human, they have to look like Eggman, or something (which is truly frightening.) Is this like some unintentional prejudice on the fandom's part? or, just an unfortunately situation that has been 'overlooked.'
