The Sonic Totem is one of the Relics of Fail, though more shrouded in mystery than any of the others. Created by Chris at some point before his Graduation, Chris fawned over the piece of art and got upset when he received no awards for it.
The Totem is one of the oldest known Christorical Artefacts, as well as one of the oldest known artefacts to have survived the Destruction of Chris's House. Originally, the totem was joined by two separate effigies of Pikachu and an effigy in the form of a plate depicting Sonic. It is currently unknown if these other artefacts have survived.
Historically, the word totem derives from the Algonquian (most likely Ojibwe) word odoodem [oˈtuːtɛm], "his kinship group". Unbeknownst to Chris, legends (deriving mostly from the Kwakwaka'wakw peoples of British Columbia) speak of totems that can become possessed by dark entities. It is unknown if this totem shares those qualities.
The totem has been featured very little in any of Chris's videos. After the Destruction Of Chris's House, many assumed the Totem had been destroyed, but it suddenly reappeared in full view during Chris's Lesbian Sleepover Party Announcement, and went on to make its most major appearance to date several years after the fire; IMG 3207, (the video where Chris dry-humps a blowup doll trying to get a lesbian couple to mother his baby.)
The aforementioned video is the only instance of it being on full display; strangely, unlike anything before that Chris has done that he is proud of, he has never acknowledged the totem at all in previous media. It may have been that Chris didn't actually make it himself.
