Backstory:
Hedgefog had been one of the creatures that grew up in Cloudy Clave Zoo, a place where every animal voluntarily stayed to live a life of luxury. Hedgefog did not find that lifestyle luxurious. He always dreamed of leaving and exploring the world. So one day, he did.

He went out and saw everything he could, the Pirate seas, the gryphon park observatory, Phoenix sanctuary. He loved it all.

One day, though, while he was visiting the cloud kingdom, he there was an uprising as some insurgents tried to reclaim the throne for the evil Lord Stratosfear. Hedgefog saw it coming and went to warn the cloud people but was cornered.

With his back against the wall, he took up one of the fog horns and began to fight back. Loading it with his quills and using his power over the fog he fought back the insurgents and saved the Cloud Kingdom. Lightning Rod came down to thank him and referred him to the Brain who promptly asked him to join the Shrink Squad.

Personality:
Hedgefog has always been a happy and excitable person. He loves adventure and exploring places no one has ever been. He would much rather live in the wilderness then in a domesticated area. He is a massive thrill seeker that loves to live life on the edge, which is likely why he and Thrillipede get along so well.
