Essie's boy. Every once in a while a child is born in the village with a strange sixth sense and the ability to speak with the unseen. Kwod happens to be one of these.


— Directory, Sonic Unleashed (Xbox 360/PlayStation 3)

Kwod (クーウォド Kūwodo?) is a character that appears in Sonic Unleashed. He is a human resident of Mazuri, the son of Essie and the brother of Yaya and six other siblings.

History[]

Xbox 360/PlayStation 3[]

Kwod was born as the son to Essie and her husband. Following an occasional unusual phenomenon in his village, Kwod was from birth gifted with unique spiritual abilities that allowed him to communicate with the spirit realm. However, Kwod was unaware about his abilities for several years.

A short while before the events of Sonic Unleashed, Kwod's abilities slowly began to awaken as he began to feel the presence of spirits around him and eventually learned how to communicate with them by concentrating, just like he had seen Kwami do. This allowed Kwod to receive various forms of info from the spirits, though he chose to keep it a secret. When Dr. Eggman began to set up his base outside Kwod's village, he heard noises coming from there and wondered what they could be as he was sure it was not animal noises.

Following the earth's shattering in Sonic Unleashed, Kwod encountered Sonic the Werehog and Chip when the pair first arrived in Mazuri to find Professor Pickle. Seeing that they were not from the village, Kwod asked them why they were here and told them about the strange sounds he had heard from outside the village.

After Sonic the Werehog, Tails and Chip returned to Spagonia with Professor Pickle, Kwod and his village were attacked by Dr. Eggman and his robot forces. While Kwod hid behind Kwami, Dr. Eggman demanded that they told him where the local Gaia Temple was. Kwod, however, told the doctor that they would not tell him anything and hit Eggman in the face with a rock. Kwod was then pulled back by Kwami, trying to protect the boy from the consequences of his action, while the elder, Gwek, also ordered his villagers to avoid provoking Eggman further. Fortunately, Kwod and his village were saved in time by Sonic the Hedgehog, who managed to drive Eggman off, and Kwod joined his village in thanking Sonic for saving them. After the crowd calmed down, Kwod told Sonic how proud he was for getting a good shot at Eggman and that he was determined to protect his village. Later, after Sonic later defeated Eggman and drove him out of Mazuri entirely, Kwod found Sonic and Chip and asked them if they got Eggman, before saying that he wanted to show the doctor.

After things started to settle down in the village again, Kwod started to notice that Kwami had been acting weird lately as he always seemed to be spaced out. When Sonic later returned, Kwod told him his thoughts about Kwami's behavior as he wondered what was wrong with him and that he wished he knew what the problem was.

Later, when the village elder Gwek stepped down from his position and gave it to Kwami, now having recovered, Kwod eagerly brought the news to Sonic and Chip when they appeared in the village, saying it was the biggest thing that had happened in his life. Kwod then told Sonic and Chip that Gwek had gone on a journey and now was in Chun-nan, before suggesting that they should go visit him.

When Sonic and Chip later returned to Mazuri, Kwod asked them curiously how Spagonia was, as he believed it was way bigger than his village and that it was awesome. After asking this, Kwod also began to wonder if Spagonia had places people could not go like in Mazuri. When Sonic and Chip later again returned to Mazuri after restoring Spagonia's continent, Kwod asked them where they were going this time. When Kwod heard that Sonic and Chip's next destination was Holoska, Kwod asked them if it was not super-cold up there, before remarking that he would catch the worst cold if he went there.

After Sonic and Chip restored Holoska's continent and returned to Mazuri once more, Kwod told them that he had heard that Holoska was back in place and about how amazing it was. Having used his connection with the spirits to determine Sonic's and Chip's next course of action, Kwod asked the duo out of nowhere if they were going to report to Professor Pickle now. Confused, Sonic asked Kwod how he knew that, but Kwod would not tell.

When Sonic and Chip later returned to Mazuri again after a while, Kwod decided to let them in on his secret. Meeting up with them, Kwod told Sonic and Chip to keep what he was about to tell a secret, before telling them of how he could hear the spirits around him. Kwod then started concentrate on hearing the spirits' voices when he suddenly got something. Kwod then told Sonic that the spirits were telling him where Sonic was needed in the world. Kwod then remained as a source of information for Sonic and Chip in Mazuri, aiding them in their mission by telling them where the spirits said they were needed next.

When Sonic and Chip again returned to Mazuri, with only one continent left to restore, and asked Kwod for guidance, Kwod commented them on their success and claimed that this would be the last time his powers were needed, before using them to tell Sonic and Chip about their next course of action.

Kwod later watched on in horror with the rest of his village as Dark Gaia began to cast the world into darkness while maturing into Perfect Dark Gaia, but rejoiced as the world returned to normal following Perfect Dark Gaia's defeat at the hands of Super Sonic and the Gaia Colossus.
