Sash Lilac

Sash Lilac is a half-dragon and the main protagonist of the Freedom Planet games and the mascot of GalaxyTrail, the company behind the Freedom Planet series. She lives in a treehouse in Dragon Valley with her best friend Carol. When she was younger, she and Carol were members of a gang called the Red Scarves, where she learned how to fight, but they left after growing a dislike for the gang's ruthless nature.
In Freedom Planet, she rescues a stranger by the name of Torque, and would, along with Carol and Milla, join him on a mission to defend her planet from the galactic warlord Arktivus Brevon, who wants to steal the Kingdom Stone to power his army. On that mission, she would face general distrust from the leaders of the kingdoms of Avalice due to her past, but is eventually able to unite all parties to launch an all-out attack on Brevon's army. Though Brevon escapes, the Kingdom Stone is saved and Avalice remains free.
Lilac was originally designed by artist Ziyo Ling in 2001 as a Sonic the Hedgehog fan character.

== Relationships ==
===Carol Tea===
The two of them were initially rivals when they were in the Red Scarves, but they eventually became best friends and are often seen fighting together. Carol has been somewhat reluctant to go along with Lilac's plans, and this caused them to get into a fight in Freedom Planet after Carol thought they shouldn't be involved with Torque mission. When Carol runs off afterwards, Lilac goes to fight Brevon on her own, not wanting anymore harm to come to her. They become friends again and eventually defeated Brevon together.
===Milla Basset===
When Lilac and Milla first met, Lilac was somewhat weirded out by Milla's odd mannerisms. However, she quickly accepted Milla as a friend, taking her to her and Carol's secret treehouse. Lilac acts as a big sister and a guardian towards Milla. When Brevon severely injures her, Lilac flies into a state of rage and defeats him. When Milla wakes up from her injuries and cries over how she almost killed Lilac, Lilac comforts her and assures her that she did nothing wrong.
===Torque===
When Torque's ship crash-landed in Dragon Valley, Lilac was quick to jump in and save him from Serpentine. After she finds out he is an alien on a mission to stop Brevon, she joins up with him in order to protect her planet. When strapped to Brevon's electrocution table, she tells Torque to not say anything about their mission, even knowing that she'll be shocked. She also seems to understand Torque's technical language, unlike other characters.
===Spade===
Lilac met Spade when she was a member of the Red Scarves. She has a rocky relationship with him, and appears to be sorry for something she did to him when she and Carol left the Scarves. Any details about this event are currently unknown.
