Prower, Miles

マイルス・パウアー / テイルス

The name "Miles Prower" is a play on words for "miles per hour," referencing the renowned speed of the Sonic the Hedgehog series. He is a young, male, golden-yellow, anthropomorphic fox with two tails (resembling the mythological kitsune, or "yoko," which was frequently depicted with up to nine), which is the origin of his nickname. He can use his two tails to lift himself into the air like a helicopter for a short period. He made his debut on October 16, 1992, appearing in the 8-bit version of Sonic the Hedgehog 2; the 16-bit version was released that November.
Seeing Sonic as something of an older brother, Tails looks up to the hedgehog and hopes to be like him. Although he lacks confidence in his abilities and experience, Tails approaches things more logically than Sonic, often using his skill with machines to change the outcome.
