Description     Here's a redesign of my version of Rotor for my fan comic Sonic Odyssey. In my previous design I went with a viking like feel, but looking back on it I felt that I might have over emphasized the viking aspect. So I went with something closer to his classic look mixed with some elements of the post reboot design. I also redesigned his wrench, I'm not scrapping the ax wrench concept but rather I altered it to where he has a specially made wrench that can change size and have some ax blades (possibly energy blades) pop out the sides.

    Rotor Sushie (Age: 20): the laid back mechanic of the Freedom Fighters, Rotor is a chill and very geeky if somewhat clumsy walrus with a friendly attitude. He can come off as intimidating at first due to his large size but is really one of the most lovable warmhearted guys you can meet. He is obsessed with technology building most of the teams gadgets and vehicles and acting as a bit of a mentor to Tails in terms of mechanics. He is big dork and a bit clumsy but still very kind and helpful. He's also rather soft spoken but can be very enthusiastic when it comes to his geeky obsessions. He's also rather sagely and introspective willing to give people advice. He is also the voice of logic on the team always looking at the big picture as appose to acting on emotion like some of the other members of the team. He would also get frustrated with things he doesn't understand and is often skeptical on the existence of magic or the super natural thinking there is always a scientific explanation to everything, his logic being that whatever is perceived as magic is actually an incredibly advanced form of science that they haven't evolved enough to understand (often citing an example of if you show pieces of modern technology to someone from the Middle Ages they'll perceive it as magic) often putting him at odds with Amy the team's magician. He still comes off as a bit child like with his upbeat attitude and geeky interests which is probably why he's able to connect well with Tails. He's a gentle giant who'd generally prefer not to fight unless he has to, other wise he is a very capable fighter due to his size, strength and viking combat training.

    He had a rough childhood with his father being the tyrannical 'Tundra King', the ruler of the nation of Holoska (one of the few places not under Robotnik's control) a cold hearted viking warlord with ice powers. Who banished Rotor for what he perceived as 'weakness' when Rotor refused to aid in their clan's robbing and pillaging and refusing to build them weapons to do so. He wandered for days until he witnessed Robotnik's rise to power and his cruel tyranny, being reminded of his father Rotor began trying to aid those suffering under Robotnik. So he set up an underground work shop in Robotropolis where he helped repair and build things for the lower classes of Robotropolis (while trying to avoid Robotnik's attention), which is how he met Sonic the Hedgehog. Then later on when his operations get found out he managed to escape the city with the help of Sonic and Sally and he became the team's mechanic ever since.

Edit: I changed some details that were bugging me.

He really looks nice. Sorry if I go into the VA thing but it seems Bill Faggerbakke or even Jess Harnell would suit him

Well Bill Faggerbakke usually voices a overweight character like Patrick or Bulkhead, the latter despite his brute appearance is goodhearted and skilled making a gate way to Cybertron. For Jess Harnell, there's so many to choose but well Ironhide case, Rotor would be the opposite, as he is laid back while Ironhide is not. So the latter wouldn't fit.
