The Egg Keeper^[1] (エッグキーパー^[2][3], Eggu Kīpā^?) is a character that appears in the Sonic the Hedgehog series . It is a mass-produced E-100 Series^[1] Badnik that was created by Dr. Eggman.

Appearance[]

The Egg Keepers bear many key similarities to the other units in the E-100 Series, including an egg-shaped body and flat head. Their main torsos are blue-gray with white and round shoulder joints and an orange stripe around their torsos' lower half. Also, on the front of their torsos they have a gray vertical row with a red light on top of it. Instead of legs, they have a gray hover engine with yellow and black hazard stripes on the bottom of their torsos. They also have long, spear-like arms with sharp, white ends and red, narrow forearm plating. Beneath their head plates, which have an orange stripe around them, they have a flat gray head with a pair of cyan eyes.

Games[]

Sonic Adventure[]

In Sonic Adventure and Sonic Adventure DX: Director's Cut, Egg Keepers appear in the following Action Stages for each character:

In gameplay, Egg Keepers appear either alone or in groups. They normally remain still until the player gets nearby, upon where they fling their craniums off them like saucers. These saucers will hover around overhead, sweeping the ground with a tractor beam-like field. Get caught in this field and the playable characters will get paralyzed for a few seconds, allowing the Egg Keeper to rush in and attack them with their body. Egg Keepers can only be destroyed with the Spin Jump, Homing Attack, Hammer Attack or gun fire when their heads are detached: get too close when they are whole and they will simply knock the player's attack away with their arms.

Sonic Rivals 2[]

In Sonic Rivals 2, the Egg Keeper appears on a collectible card:

IDW Publishing[]

In the Sonic the Hedgehog comic series and its spin-offs published by IDW Publishing, the Egg Keepers are Badniks created by Dr. Eggman. In an abandoned Eggman base outside Windmill Village that Sonic and Tails had entered, a local Egg Keeper tried to immobilize Tails. However, Belle took the attack for herself by pushing Tails out of the way. Before anything bad could happen to Belle though, Tails destroyed the Egg Keeper.^[4] More Egg Keepers soon after showed up to take its place though. As the heroes tried to escape the base, an Egg Keeper succeeded in capturing Tails, but Belle managed to save him.^[5]

Powers and abilities[]

The Egg Keepers are capable of levitation. They can also detach their heads and send them flying through midair life a UFO. While in the air, their heads can emit a tractor beam-like field that can paralyze anyone who enters it.
