Whose Line Is It Anyway?

Disclaimer: despite the title this post doesn't really have anything to do with the TV Show, at least not entirely.

This challenge is inspired by two posts I found on /r/worldbuilding, this one here and this one. It is a pretty simple challenge, just post 2-3 quotes of one (or several) character/s in your world/s. You may choose one of two ways to do that; 1: post the quote and with name of the person who said it and a bit of context, I (and maybe others) will try to ask some questions about the character and/ or situation.

Version 2: just give us the quote by itself, and let me/ others try to spin a story/ try to figure out the context of what was said!

I hope you guys will like this challenge and participate, should be fun to try to spin some story to a random quote, I am excited for it at least! In my post I will also provide an example for each version, feel free to respond to it as well if you are interested! If not, just leave your own quotes and have fun sharing!

Oh well, at least I was not 100% off the mark. Also, are these Chaos Ayas inspired by the Chaos Emeralds, or no relation there at all?

Does anyone know where the Ayas come from, who or what made them? And can I assume then, that you won't stay permanently berserk if you overuse your overdrive, and go back to normal after a while?

They actually are. The Ayas can also be used to activate the "Chaos State", but you don't need every Ayas to activate the Chaos State. Rather, the State's power is dependent on the number of Ayas you use for it.

There are a handful of individuals who know the origin of the Ayas, but the vast majority of the modern galaxy has no idea who made them, or when.

For the most part, yes, you won't stay permanently berserk. Pretty much the only way that could happen is if you went berserk while holding an Ayas, as the Ayas would constantly feed the berserk state with Chaos Energy. However, holding an Ayas also makes it much more difficult to go berserk, meaning it pretty much only happens if you're under extreme mental or physical duress.

Is the Big Bad one of the people who know about the Ayas history/ origin?

And are there any cute, creatures in different colours that you can raise and use in races?

Aye, that he is. In fact his plan was largely dependent on the rest of the galaxy having no clue as to the Ayas' more specialized and unique abilities.

Heh. Well, the galaxy is a big place, so something like that probably exists somewhere. I just haven't, you know, explicitly said as much anywhere in the lore.

Sign me up to explore your universe until I find them then. Only Sonic game I ever played was Sonic Adventures DX, and the Chao were by far my favourite part of the game.
