Inspired by a question about Sonic's parentage from a prior drawing. So here's me contemplating some hedgehogs who are children to people who would've been Sonic's parents in different lives, were he not a solo act as far as we know.
Obviously, they're different from their bases because they're now not Sonic. So their status quos, experiences and abilities would likely be different to their Sonic versions too, but it makes for some fun considerations.
—-
Sonic — It's the main man, Sonic the Hedgehog. Born on Christmas Island. He's been a world travelling hero and all that since childhood, with little baggage other than a love for adventure and the friends he's made along the way.
Nicky Parlouzer — A youth living a mostly simple life with parents, Paulie and Brenda, sister, Tania, his friends and the community of Hedgehog Town.
Maurice Ogilvie — A kid from Mobotropolis in the Acorn Republic, and son of Jules and Bernadette Ogilvie.
Mania Aleena — Part of a trio of royal triplets born to Queen Aleena of the Aleenian Territories. At the behest of their mother, Mania and his siblings, Sonia and Manic, travel, at first on their own and now together as a band, gaining life experience and righting wrongs, while unaware of the prophecy that prompted the Queen to send them on their journeys.
Schwartz Wachowski — Brought to this zone from another by his previous guardian, Longclaw, after forces looking to capture the boy for his latent abilities forced their separation. He lived in secret for a time until circumstances led to his finding a family in Tom and Maddie Wachowski and the Green Hill town community.
Ben Robinson — An actor whose rep has been in a slump as of late, but he might have a show in pipeline? (Known recently as “The Sonic at home”, “Great value Sonic”, “Ugly Sonic”, “Anti-Sonic” after Sonic’s name got out and someone online made the comparison.)

Extra nonsense
-Fleetway and Boom I didn't draw a Sonic for, cuz those Sonics don't have a parental/guardian who's child a parentless Sonic would negate I'm pretty sure.
-Nicky probably still has the alter ego thing going on, but he doesn't become Sonic. Maybe it's his subconscious idea of what the famous Sonic is like? A Stefan Urquelle to Nicky's Steve Urkel?
-Maurice is visually a mix of Organic Jules, Bernadette, and Other M Sonic. Other than being Jules and Bernadette's son (And Chuck's nephew I guess) he doesn't really inherit much from Archie Sonic (Maybe he can become Muttski's bro or something down the line.)
-Mania's name comes from parts of Son[ia] and [Man]ic and 's name, since their names come from part of [Son][ic]'s. Also, his quill shape comes from the Archie version of Underground Sonic.
-Minus Robotnik (is it Rava instead?), I think Schwartz (alongside Nicky) would be most like his basis self. Maybe sub super speed for electric or generic energy ability wise, there's a lot of power in those quills. Also, you already know where his name came from.
