Sass

**Sass** is the kwami of **Intuition** who is connected to the Snake Miraculous. With his power, Sass' wearer can use the Ouroboros bracelet to transform into a snake-themed superhero.

Sass and his miraculous are currently owned by Gabriel Agreste, who uses it for evil purposes.

## Appearance

Sass is 10 centimeters (or 4 inches) tall and is light sea green, and has a broad, triangular head, resembling a cobra. His eyes are vivid green with narrow black pupils and light apple green sclerae, his mouth has two pointed fangs, and he has a sea green forked tongue. Additionally, he has a long tail, and from the top of his head and down his back to the tip of his tail, he has a very deep sea green diamond line pattern.

## Personality

Sass is the defacto leader of the kwamis in the Miracle Box, meaning he is mature, charming, calm, responsible and serious. Because of his status as said leader, Sass has the authority to give certain commands to his fellow kwamis when he needs to, like when he told Tikki and Plagg to get Wayzz when they were not managing to contact Nooroo during the latter's cycle. With the eminent danger of a famished Tikki looking for galettes to eat and using her power like she has done in the past, he allowed Wayzz and Barkk to leave and watch over her. Another demonstration of his leadership is how he has the courage to try to dissuade Gabriel from having his wish granted and explain to him the drawbacks of fusing to many Miraculous. The other kwamis also tend to hide behind him when they get scared by their new villainous owner.

Like Longg, he has a bit of a formal side happily greeting his owners. Due to the unique ability of his powers, Sass has high expectations of those he is partnered with. As Master Fu described his jewel, Sass is also wise in carefully choosing what time he needed to go back too like his holders he was able to resist temption.

And yet, in rare incidents Sass will beg for things he truly desires seen in "Furious Fu", as he did the puppy dog eyes along with his fellow kwamis expressing their desire to see Master Fu. Due to his calm demeanor, he rarely gets scared as seen in "Simpleman" when Manon tries to open Marinette's sewing box.

## Abilities

#### General Skills

As Sass' holders remember every revised timeline it's likely he does too meaning Sass has a good memory.

#### As a Kwami

Sass can fly, levitate, and phase through solid objects. He can also carry objects that are larger and/or heavier than himself.

As a kwami, Sass is able to transform the holder of the Snake Miraculous into a snake-themed superhero, with the power to go back in time with Second Chance.

Unlike his holders, Sass, when he uses Second Chance, can go back to any previously marked time, no matter how much time has passed. However, doing so causes different moments in time to overlap with each other, causing objects, animals or people from the past to reappear at the present.

It also disrupts objects and devices that use or measure the passage of time in order to function properly.

## Relationships

### Tikki and Plagg

Sass treats Tikki and Plagg as equals and considers them of being high virtue, given that he assumed they both got permission from their owners and from the Great Guardian of the Miraculous to participate in the ceremony inside the Miracle Box.

Sass cares about Tikki and Plagg as him was willing to help Marinette rescue them in "Kwamibuster" from the titular villain.

When Tikki's owner becomes the new guardian, he and his fellow kwamis move in with her.

Upon concerning about Tikki going on hunger rampage again in "Dearest Family", he advised Wayzz and Barkk to watch over her.

In "Ephemeral", upon seeing Tikki's and Plagg's combined power being used Sass knew that his fellow kwamis were caught by Shadow Moth. From his guardian's Lucky Charm, he got her permission to use his power in doing so their capture was undone.

### Adrien Agreste/Chat Noir

Sass appears to have a friendly relationship with Adrien, though he has likely left a poor impression on Sass after failing to make good use of Second Chance 25,913 times as Aspik.

In "Miracle Queen", after Sass' Miraculous was taken from a mind controlled Luka, he was fed some cheese by Cat Noir before unifying his power with the Cat Miraculous' to become Snake Noir. It's likely that Sass' impression on Adrien started to change, as the boy was more focused on saving his friends, and that he only used Second Chance twice.

### Luka Couffaine

Sass appears to get along well with Luka. He likely thinks highly of Luka after comparing him to his recent temporary owner, Adrien, who proved to be a failure with the Snake Miraculous. In "Party Crasher", Luka and Sass continued to work together. In "Miracle Queen", he was likely worried after seeing Luka put on the Miraculous to be used against his friends.

In "Wishmaker", Sass becomes delighted to see Luka again when Ladybug needed his help.

In "Ephemeral", when Shadow Moth is able to get the Ladybug and Cat Miraculouses and is about to grant his wish, Sass explains to Luka the consequences of using the Absolute Power, before Luka telling him to use his power to go back in time and prevent that from happening.

### Marinette Dupain-Cheng/Ladybug/Multimouse

Even though his Miraculous wasn't activated, Sass helped Marinette as Multimouse enact her plan to rescue Tikki and Plagg by having her ride in his mouth. After Kwamibuster's defeat, he praised Marinette as her plan was a success.

After Miracle Queen, Sass respects Marinette as his new guardian.

In "Dearest Family" aware of what was going on with Tikki, Sass tried to warn her.

In "Ephemeral", upon sensing time anomalies happening everywhere Sass detransformed to explain to Ladybug that he got permission from her Lucky Charm to use his power.
