Once hailed as Dr. Eggman’s greatest creation, Xenon is prideful and perhaps a bit arrogant, often preferring to do things xenself and feeling like xe can do them best. Xer biggest pet peeve is being blown off or underestimated. Xe can be quick to anger with people xe doesn’t like, but has remarkable patience with the few people xe cares about.
Likes: speed, flying, space, sunsets
Dislikes: Sonic, disrespect
Favorite color: #180078

Fun fact: Xe convinced Eggman to let xen transition because "your greatest creation shouldn't be held back by being considered a 'mere copy'."

Exact Palette
Blue [#180078]; Star White (actually a very pale blue) [#def4fe]; Skin [#ae6b50]; Red [#e00e0e]; Metal [#9db0c7]; Gold [#fedc00]; Optic Screen [#2c0112]; Eye Color [#ff0000]
Personality
Empress Xenon is prideful and perhaps a bit arrogant, often preferring to do things xenself so xe can put maximum effort in. Xer biggest pet peeve is being blown off or underestimated. Xe prefers to stay calm and measured, and sometimes takes a moment to respond as xe considers xer words carefully.
Xe takes great pride in xer own work, as well as the work of any robot xe considers xer charge in some way. Xe gives very to-the-point constructive criticsm, and avoids being cruel with xer underlings.
Abilities
Xe has a special chip allowing xen to control their nanobot body very precisely, allowing xen to shapeshift. It should be noted that xe has size limits in both directions. Xe has to work with what material xe has, and all of it. Denser packing may allow xen to get smaller, but it will also decrease airflow and risk overheating more easily. Conversely, spreading material thinner can make xen larger, but more brittle.
Xe has a very powerful jet engine, referenced in the symbol of the Empire. Xe considers it a major part of xer identity.
An incident in xer "adolescence" left xen with a peculiar operating system often called 'ChaOS'. Xe runs on septenary code rather than binary. Xe is very hard to program for, but also immune to most computer viruses.
Xe can copy the biodata of others, allowing xen to copy other people's abilities if xe so wishes. Xe doesn't use this ability often.
Xe has electrokinesis, and can affect the weather from a high enough altitude.
Xe, of course, also has abilities typical of all badniks in this timeline; being able to connect to the internet wirelessly and communicate silently with other robots through something similar to Bluetooth.
Story
Xenon was created by Dr. Robotnik as a replacement for Mecha Sonic MK II, having the same base AI and a body based on the blueprints for the first Metal Sonic. Xe was made roughly concurrently with the creation of Decoe, Bocoe, and Bokkun. After seeing no significant use for the first two years of xer existence, xe rebelled and attempted to take over the world xenself. Xe was defeated by the Sonic Heroes and was reclaimed by Eggman. Despite xer rebellion, Eggman was impressed by xer intelligence and ability, so xe did succeed in showing him xe was worthy of more respect, at least.
All of xer prior memories were deleted.
