eggman looking red today
Prolly screwed the bot up. Starved is a creepy and hungry version of Eggman who loves to cook Mobians and eat them, even modifying his Badniks to catch and cook them. He is the opponent featured in the songs, Prey, and Fight or Flight. He is an incarnation of Dr. Ivo Robotnik that has one goal currently in mind: to feed his insatiable hunger he has worked up over time. He is the same doctor to a marginal degree despite the difference in looks, his outlooks comparably before are much different than what he originally had planned in the beginning.
Appearance
Starved is a deformed and creepy version of Eggman with red skin, sunken black eyes, and red teeth with no visible mouth. His round head is no longer so, now being more oval in shape.
Story
Sometime after the events of Sonic the Hedgehog, Dr. Ivo Robotnik's curiosity overtook him as he noticed a charred Flicky on the ground. Giving in to his temptation, Robotnik took a bite, and instantly became addicted.
No longer did he want the Chaos Emeralds or power, but instead a way to create an eternal supply of the meat he so desperately craved. Although his body started to deteriorate, his hair fall out, and his skin turn a deep blood red, the side effects of his diet were no longer of concern as he took over the South and Christmas Islands.
Fast-forward to Sonic CD, the mad doctor had, as per canon, kidnapped Amy Rose, and Sonic sped after him. By the time Sonic had caught up to his new nemesis, Sonic was ambushed by the doctor's greatest invention, "Furnace", a metal copy of Sonic built to be better than him in every way. The two raced across Stardust Speedway, with Robotnik eventually joining in after Sonic egged him on. However, just as Sonic seemed to be in the clear, Furnace had already gotten to the finish, and rammed into the blue blur.
Sonic had passed.
Overjoyed that the one who beat him has now perished, Robotnik... no... "Starved" took the hedgehog's body and has kept it with him as a prize, as a memento for such an occasion, only taking a bite when the time sees fit.
Now, Starved plans to use his newly acquired Time Stones to keep himself fed on Mobian flesh for all of eternity. Fortunately, there's just one small wrench in his plans. A pesky fox who he somehow let slip away.
Trivia
Despite semi-popular belief, according to the creator, Starved is not a cannibal, but only feasts on the wildlife and Mobians. He also still has his 300 I.Q.
According to another post by one of Starved's co-creators, when asked if he likes his meals rare, they replied that he fully cooks them, with nothing going raw.
According to one of the creators, who was responding to a shitpost, Starved wouldn't eat at Chick-Fil-A, stating that "He hates when companies donate to anti-LGBTQ and upholds conversion therapy." They also say that "starved aint a monster, hes reasonable to everyone". (only the best factoids on Funkipedia)
Starved has canonically killed Sonic, Amy Rose, and Ray in his timeline.
Starved was inspired from another Eggman EXE, named Genysys.
Starved's acts similar to Eggman, being arrogant in his image. He is portrayed more as a "classical" type of body gestures/movements.
