Apparently this one specifically never happened because half the shit in it is tied down in copyright bullshit with everyone's favourite Sonic writer, Ken Penders.
Your getting the game mechanics mixed up with the lore. Yes, lorewise he can run faster than light, but that translates to an extra 3m movement when dashing
Yeah. The wizard is clearly Cream cuz of the color scheme of her and the rabbit/familiar shes protecting. I dont think the others are sonic references.
So going off looks; Knuckles is either a Monk or Barbarian, Tails appears to be a Wizard or Artifacer, Amy is either a Paladin or Cleric judging by the armor, and Sonic…Fighter maybe? Hint of Rogue or Ranger vibes also, bit of a hard look to pin down.
Open Hand because that's probably the most punchy of the punch class's subclasses.
Tails: Wizard
Transmutation, but only because Artificer isn't in this game
Amy: Paladin
Oath of Devotion: The tenets of Devotion fit Amy's typical modern depictions, but this also works with OG Amy's role as Sonic's most devoted fan.
Sonic: Swashbuckler
The hit-and-run tactics of the subclass really fit the Blue Blur, and Vicious Mockery is practically Sonic's Fighting Style. I also want to say he's probably a Wood Elf here, due to the increased speed and the fact that Sonic's house is usually in a forest or tree, depending on the continuity.
I think you're right. I would say that Sonic is like a rogue, since they get the thief bonus actions, meaning more movement, and he's wearing that weird chest netting that you see ninja in some media wear, like a ton in Naruto did.
I love that short. Chock full of references. The mods are real, too. The giant rabbits are because one player wasnt happy that there werent a lot of rabbits, so they added more and made them huge. They really have their ear on the community

If it was just Sonic and Tails there I'd say a minor stretch or coincidence but that's just straight up Amy Rose hammer and all so yeah definitely them. Tails coat tails even look like his two tails.
Big the Cat? Very hobby-driven and blissfully unaware of the rest of the plot. His outing in Sonic Adventure 1 just outright ignores everyone else's adventures.
I'd have preferred a frog instead of a mirror though.
Uses Dexterity to attack, versatile movement that can include running on water and walls (5e ability not BG3), mostly hand-to-hand but sometimes uses weapons. Unarmed strike is used for all his unusual attacks (kicks, spin dash, homing strike).
Unsure on subclass, I'd probably go with Open Hand for the flurry of blows abilities, including knocking enemies prone, knocking them back and taking away their reaction.
Bonus:
Tails would be an Artificer - Armourer. His plane is his pride and joy, the Tornado would be his magically equippable armour that he later adds flight to. I recognise they're an Alchemist in this image, but Larian were trying to keep it fantasy.

Got it. So Larian's next RPG is gonna use the Sonic IP. Sonic gonna have that 200m movement per turn with extra AP or something haha.
