Doctor Finitevus

Dr. Finitevus is a fictional character from the Sonic the Hedgehog (Archie comic).

An anthropomorphic, humanoid, albino Echidna-the only one known to exist-his fur is entirely white, except for black marks on the chest similar to Knuckles the Echidna's birthmark. His eyes, despite their unnatural appearance, are completely natural, and he wears a black cape with horizontal white and black stripes on the inside. In concurrence with being a member of the Legion, Finitevus' forearms and lower legs seem to have been replaced with black mechanical limbs adorned with golden power rings.

Present Day
Dr. Finitevus was the chief medical advisor to Lien-Da, and sneers at the people of Echidnaopolis and their belief in the prophecy of the Avatar. Despite being a scientist, he is not afraid to go into battle, having challenged Hunter when he attempted to steal the Master Emerald. However, like Constable Remington, Finitevus was seemingly overpowered and killed by the Overlander's Chaos Spear. In reality, he used Hunter's attack to mask his departure.

He later resurfaced, gathering an army of villains, among them the equally insane Scourge the Hedgehog. Finitevus appears to have left the Legion to strike out on his own, though the truth of this is unknown. Dr. Finitevus has also targeted Scourge's former partner Rouge the Bat, who he caught sabotaging missiles in his secret base. According to Rouge, he has stolen data from the ancient robot Isaac and rescued the Destructix from the Egg Grape Chamber. He also aided Locke in keeping A.D.A.M. from summoning the Master Emerald - though it is clear this is only because he has his own plans involving the gem.

Possible Future
In the alternate version of Mobius: 25 Years Later, it is revealed that Dimitri came to dislike Finitevus. This was revealed when he expressed shame at having worked with him, an event that was only outclassed by Lien-Da's conspiracy with Mobius' despotic king, Shadow the Hedgehog. Finitevus himself did not appear in the possible future, most likely having been killed at some unknown point between the present and the future.

Personality
Finitevus is among the more audastic villains, having acquired his minions by rescuing them from the antagonism of some of his most dangerous possible opponents, such as Dr. Eggman. Finitevus varies in his involvement, only interfering in the schemes of others if his own are threatened. He also takes Dark Legion contempt of Angel Island Echidnas to the extreme, similar in fashion to the hatred of the Guardian Spectre towards members of the Legion.

Powers
Dr. Finitevus is an insane genius of a caliber rivaling that of Dimitri. He has mysterious powers, which may be derived from magic, science, or some combination of the two. When he appeared in the Emerald Chamber on Angel Island to help Locke, he appeared to use some form of Chaos Control, but the light energy he produced was black rather than green, suggesting a unique form of the power. Because of his mechanical limbs, he also likely has enhanced physical abilities.
