Amy Rose

**Amy Rose** is Sonic the Hedgehog's self-proclaimed girlfriend. She is known to use her Piko Piko Hammer in battle.

## Appearance

Amy is a pink hedgehog with green eyes. Unlike many other hedgehog characters, her spines are not spiky in appearance (though they were when she was younger) but rather are curved and stylized, somewhat resembling a bob cut. Her eyes have on occasion been miscoloured blue and purple.

As a child, Amy's appearance was generally based upon her look in the earlier games, such as *Sonic CD* and *Sonic the Fighters*. At the time she wore an orange/yellow ruffled or pleated skirt, a white shirt with puffed green sleeves sometimes colored entirely green, red, pink, or blue running shoes, white gloves, and a hairband.

When she was redesigned for the games, Amy's comic appearance changed to reflect that. As a teen, she wears a short red backless dress with white trim, tall red boots with a white cuff and stripe, a red hairband and gloves with gold cuffs. Her Piko Piko Hammer is generally yellow and red, though at times it's been drawn more akin to a sledgehammer and colored as metallic. For Bunnie and Antoine's wedding she wore a red gown, and while searching for Sol Emeralds she carried a brown cross-body bag.

During Team Fighters' mission in the tundra, Amy wore a red and white coat similar in style to her dress, though fully enclosed with long sleeves and two draw-strings hanging from the collar with white pom poms decorating them. She also wore a pair of black pants, which were miscolored red at one point, while retaining her usual gloves and boots.

## History

*Most of this character's history is the same as in the original official comics. See here for further details.*
### Joining Team Fighters

Amy then joined Silver and the Arctic Freedom Fighters in attacking the Egg SWATS sent to defeat them. Eventually, the Egg SWATS deactivated thanks to Sonic, allowing them to escape the Death Egg. With Mecha Sally in tow, Team Fighters and Silver then began to head back to New Mobotropolis. As they arrived, they are attacked by Emerl and Metal Sonic. Amy decides to hold Emerl off, and became shocked at how Emerl copied her Piko-Piko Hammer. Regardless, she defeated Emerl with Silver's help. She then began to watch over the Gizoid as Silver went to stop Metal Sonic. (StHO: #248, #249)

Amy later arrived at New Mobotropolis's stadium to greet the now de-robotcized Sally, although she seems to mistake the former's shame to look Amy in the face for annoyance. She then went to Uncle Chuck's diner with the rest of the group to celebrate her return. (StHO: #250)

## Personality

Personality do anything to get Sonic's attention. Her caring nature seems to have given her the ability to talk almost anybody out of destruction. Due to being extremely protective of her friends, Amy can be extremely aggressive towards the enemies of the Freedom Fighters. She's brave, bold and decisive, though this sometimes leads to her acting without thinking things through. Despite her aggressive and sometimes single-minded tendencies, Amy has a very good heart; she's always willing to help others, she never gives up, and she's one of the most optimistic and cheery members of the Freedom Fighters. She is also a bit of a ditz, like Dulcy the Dragon, but not as much so.
