Overlanders are Humanoids from Mobius Prime and connected Zones. Just like Mobians, the Overlanders were created by the Xorda's Gene Bombs. They tend to be an aggressive and barbaric species, and they're xenophobic towards Mobians (with a few exceptions).
Biology[]
The Overlanders look similar to humans, except they have hair colours not existing in the normal human genome and possess 4 fingered hands and 4 toed feet instead of 5 (though there are exceptions, like the Iron Queen, Colin Kintobor, Hope Kintobor, Doctor Eggman, etc).
History[]
The Overlanders are all that remains of the former human population of Earth since the gene-bombing of the Xorda.
Due to their violent nature towards Mobians, they entered with them a conflict known as the "Great War". The war ended with the Mobians emerging victorious over the Overlanders, so the Overlanders begin travel space in order to migrate to other planets.
However, the Overlanders go back to Mobius when they failed to find a new home in space, the Overlanders were welcome by Dr. Eggman (an alternate version of Dr. Robotnik from another reality) in the city of Robotropolis.
Robotropolis was filled with poisonous radioactive waste, and the only way to be cured from the poisoning by being Robotized by Eggman. But, the Knothole Freedom Fighters warn them about the danger, so the Overlanders leave the city to move to the human city of Station Square.
Following a temporal event known as the "Super Genesis Wave", which irreversibly altered the Prime Zone's timeline, this species no longer exists.
