About Miles "Tails" Prower is one of the main characters in the Sonic Boom series. He is an anthropomorphic two-tailed fox and the best friend and sidekick of Sonic the Hedgehog. He serves as his team's aerial pilot, gadget specialist and strategist. Tails is an prolific tinkerer, constantly dreaming up inventions not only to give his team the edge but also to make life easier, though while some of his creations are brilliant, some are of questionable purpose. Unlike Sonic who runs headlong into trouble, Tails plans out the best possible approach to take on a challenge. Sometimes though, he feels like he has to prove that he belongs with his tougher team-mates. Gifted with a pair of twin-tails, Tails can utilize these unique appendages to achieve flight by twirling his twin tails around like rotary blades, like a helicopter. He can also use them as a turbine to propel himself forward, allowing him to move at higher speed. He is also an ingenious mechanic, inventor and an expert air pilot, as well as one of the best aerial fighters that can use a plane in battle.
Appearance Tails is almost identical to his main series conunterpart in appearance, except that he is slightly taller, with longer legs and thinner twin-tails. For attire, he wears a pair of brown goggles with orange lenses on his head, a brown work belt with a strap around his shoulder and a small emblem adorned with his signature symbol on the front, and white medium-long gloves with no cuffs. He also wears red sneakers with white toes and cuffs, which have white sports tape wrapped around the middle. Tails' attire was meant to emphasize his role as the "gadget guy" of the team. He received a belt to "really show" his gadgets and aviator goggles to reinforce that he was also the team's pilot. The sports tape Tails wears is inspired by fighters and American football players and is meant to give him a sense of practical heroism by showing that that he is not vain, which is a trait more fitting for villains, when saving the world and to give him a more grounded approach.
