Interestingly, the large amounts of gold, the decoration, the colouration, and the overall design makes the character look far more [[Wikipedia:Maya civilization|Mayan]] than anything else, which Chris may have confused them with. | When considering the likelihood of this account, it should also be noted that Chris also claims to be descended from [[Anne Boleyn]], whose [[Wikipedia:Elizabeth I of England|only offspring]] died without children, as well as one [[Daniel Weston]] who didn't exist at all.

Chris claims to have at least one ancestor who is Cherokee. Thus, the Cherokian Clan is the tribe he believes this ancestor belongs to. The ancient exploits of the clan figure heavily into the mythology of the Sonichu comics.
The primary rival tribe of the Cherokian Clan was the Wasabi Clan, which Chris stole from Naruto.
Fictional history
Apparently living in what is now Virginia many centuries ago, the Cherokians (pronounced [tʃəˈɹɑkiən] - chuh-rock-ee-uhns by Chris) possessed considerable mystical powers and skill for prophecy. The Cherokee leader, Christian's ancestor, wore a coveted Cherokian crown which somewhat resembled the ears of Sonichu, suggesting that there is more than meets the eye to Christian's creation.
The Cherokians and Wasabi fought frequently over both the crown and the Cherokian queen, whom the Wasabi leader wanted as his own. Despite this, the Cherokians and Wasabi joined forces to defeat and imprison their mutual enemy, Count Graduon.
Recognizing that Graduon could someday again threaten mankind, the Cherokians wrote the Anchuent Prophecy, describing the exact circumstances of Graduon's escape and the identity of the individuals who would summon the power to defeat him. The prophecy was locked away in the Destiny Cave somewhere near the future site of CWCville, Virginia, along with the Fireshock Pendant and Lightning Bracelets that would empower two of the three "electric creatures" fated to stop Graduon.
Seriously?
Chris is among a very large number of Americans — most of whom aren't autistic man-children — who claim to have some distant Native American heritage. In particular, it is especially common for many white and black people, and especially in the South, to specifically claim Cherokee heritage. How accurate all of those claims are is another matter. At least in some cases, it is more likely that the "Cherokee ancestor" is a cover for having a distant black ancestor (if the person claiming the ancestry is white) or white ancestry (if the person claiming it is black). Incidentally, the actual race of all Native Americans is Mongoloid, the same race as most Asians.
Chris has actually given multiple values for how much Cherokee blood he has; for example, in Chris's emails to Jackie, he says multiple times that he's actually 1/16 Cherokee Indian, but then in the Regina Emails, he states he's 1/32 Cherokee. Bob seems to encourage this response from Chris, saying in the Emily recording that he (Bob) is "at least" one fourth Cherokee, claiming that this came from his father, meaning Chris would actually be one eighth Cherokee if Bob were correct. Therefore, if Bob's claim was accurate, Chris claiming to be 1/16 and 1/32 Cherokee would simply indicate that he is shitty at math.
When considering the likelihood of this account, it should also be noted that Chris also claims to be descended from Anne Boleyn, whose only offspring died without children, as well as one Daniel Weston who didn't exist at all. For someone who takes pride in his Cherokee ancestry, he is extremely ignorant regarding actual Cherokees, who bear no physical resemblance to Chris's portrayals whatsoever. He depicts the Ancient leader of the Cherokee Clan as white-skinned and blue-eyed (and looking very much like Chris himself), referring to Cherokee artifacts, customs, and people with the dubious demonym "Cherokian," and slathering them in solid gold Sonichu-themed jewelery and armor. Interestingly, the large amounts of gold, the decoration, the colouration, and the overall design makes the character look far more Mayan than anything else, which Chris may have confused them with.
When a letter in the Mailbag asked to explain his inaccuracies regarding the Cherokee people and how he came to presenting them in the comics the way he did, Chris offered that he didn't know as much about the Cherokees as he possibly could. He refuses to concede that he was wrong, but simply says that there might be a few facts he glossed over.[1]
Shedding even further light onto his attitudes regarding Cherokees, Chris later compared the Trail of Tears, a tragedy in which 4,000 Cherokees and many other Native Americans were killed, to some pranks in which people on the Internet made fun of him.[2]
UNGA WUNGA
"UNGA-WUNGA" is a piece of art produced by Chris. It is baffling why on Earth Chris would draw such a bizarre and offensive picture, especially with his purported Cherokee ancestry. Chris is pictured having hanky-panky with what is supposed to be Jackie up against a tree, with a group of native people cheering and mass debating (at the same time) all around them. The name of the artwork sums up how naïve Chris is when it comes to Native Americans.
