Big the Cat

## History

Big, began in the first Modern Season as a minor background character but later on he would go on to play along in more adventures throw-out the years big & Froggy's origins are still unknown in all continuities but the *Archie Sonic the Hedgehog Comics.* But Big still helps out where he can but just one priority to not lose Froggy and keep his friends safe from harm.

## Personality

Big is a kind, carefree and laid-back cat with a friendly personality. He cares a lot for his friends, especially Froggy. He enjoys fishing leisurely and brings his rod with him wherever he goes. He is often giddy and optimistic, especially when with his friends. However, he is not exactly the brightest bulb in the box, as he has a short attention span and has a hard time understanding even the simplest of metaphors. Similarly, important things sometimes pass right through his mind. This does not mean Big is stupid, however, but more so that he is a slow thinker. Quite comfortable with himself, Big acknowledges himself that he is not very intelligent without being burdened by it. In fact, he is quite surprised himself when he realizes that he is right in an argument. In addition, his simple way of thinking lets him see important points that others, in their considerations of more complicated matters, have overlooked. For example, he genuinely believed Dodon Pa was a good person while everyone else believed him to be evil because he knew that Dodon Pa worked with Wisps, who only like nice people.

Despite his shortcomings, Big is loyal and reliable to his friends, and always sees the best in those he likes, even when others try to convince him otherwise. He also dislikes how many people worry about so many little things and them hurrying about all the time, which is most likely why he chose to live in the Mystic Ruins jungle without technology.

Big encourages others and is not the selfish type. Big has an ability to stay calm in any situation, even when he has lost Froggy. Big is amazed by a lot of things and is almost always upbeat, even when he is in danger. One of the only instances of the cat losing his upbeat nature came during the Neo Metal Sonic incident, when he momentarily lost hope of finding Froggy and sadly suggested going home, before Amy rekindled his spirit.

## Powers & Abilities

Although kind and without much combat expertise, Big is still quite strong and powerful. Classified as a Power Type and said to possess prodigious strength, Big has enormous superhuman power, enough to lift and walk around with cars and boulders much larger than himself with ease. He can similarly smash large boulders and damage tough Badniks using only brute strength, and even knock away objects with enough force to make them ignite fire. By utilizing his large grid as well, Big can deliver shockwave-creating bodyslams.

While having not demonstrated notable speed and agility, Big is still rather fast and nimble for his size by normal standards. During the Neo Metal Sonic incident, he demonstrated enough speed to let him keep up with even Amy Rose. In addition, Big is shown to have passable reflexes and acrobatic skills, enough to let him do unique tricks and movements while in mid-air, pull off various Spin Attack maneuvers at high speed, and grind on Grind Rails with ease.

Big is also able to perform the Spin Attack, a technique where he curls into a concussive ball or cutting disk and directs himself at his targets. With it, Big can shred or burrow through just about any substance given enough speed. Adept in its usage, Big can utilize several variants of the Spin Attack for both ground- and aerial maneuvers, including the Spin Dash, Spin Jump, and Homing Attack.

Big is a highly skilled fisherman as well, being able to catch just about anything with his trusty rod. Notably, he has been able to catch underwater creatures ranging from regular fish of various shapes and sizes to hostile Badniks and even Froggy while he was under the influence of Chaos. Once, he was even able to catch Cream in midair with his lure while Cream was caught in a strong wind.

Big is a very capable swimmer. During the Chaos incident, he displayed enough swimming skills to reach far depths, move through underwater grottos, and even walk on the bottom of pools like he was walking on dry land. He also has an excellent sense of smell; during the Chaos incident and the Neo Metal Sonic incident, Big was able to catch Froggy's sense on the Egg Carrier and the outskirts of Bullet Station, respectively, while the latter was (seemingly) held captured deep within said locations.

Despite his nonurban habitat, Big has surprisingly good skills when it comes to piloting different vehicles; notably, he managed to pilot Tails' Tornado 2 through a storm and land it safely despite not knowing the first thing about it. Additionally, as seen during Dodon Pa's Grand Prix, Big also has excellent skills when it comes to driving and racing in racecars like the Frog Cruiser.

### Equipment

Big's main tool is his trusty fishing pole and its lure, which he always keeps on him. While simple in design, it is a quite capable tool in Big's hand. For example, it is durable enough to be used as a staff/club in combat, allowing Big to destroy or otherwise damage his opposition with a single wrack of his pole. Big can also use his pole's lure as a weapon by throwing it at foes from afar and destroying them or catch and pull in objects (other than fish) from a distance. Other offensive moves Big can pull off with his fishing pole is his Big Fishing technique, where Big replaced the lure on his pole with either a flaming lifebuoy, a flaming buoy, or a flaming iron ball and swings it around to knock surrounding opponents into submission. For traversing the environment, Big can as well use his pole's built-in umbrella to glide through mid-air by folding it out during mid-fall.

## Weaknesses

Big's main weakness is that he is not the brightest bulb in the bunch. In addition, he is slow in many ways; despite being fast enough to keep up with Amy, he is slower than most other playable Sonic characters.

## Relationships

### Froggy

Froggy is Big's best friend and closest companion. The cat seems to care deeply for his amphibian pet; whenever the latter goes missing, Big is willing to go to great lengths to find him.

### Amy Rose

Despite not meeting Amy Rose during the Chaos incident, the two apparently befriended each other before the events of Sonic Heroes adaption and have remained close friends ever since. As the leader of Team Rose, Amy has shown to willingly assist Big in finding Froggy and Amy comforted Big whenever he became sad and lonely over the loss of his best friend.

### Cream the Rabbit & Cheese

Big is shown to be very protective of Cream the Rabbit. Big and Cream first appear together in Sonic Heroes with Big saving Cream from being blown away by a strong gale. Big also shows hostility towards Team Chaotix when Espio demands that Cream forfeit Cheese.

### Knuckles the Echidna

When Terios Returned, Bigs home was destroyed and went to Angel Island for Knuckles help but the two actually have a closer friendship then most others Big would sometimes out pure spite point out Knuckles flaw leading Knuckles to get jealous knowing its true, but they do have a close friendship.

### Sonic the Hedgehog

Sonic the Hedgehog is one of Big's friends who met during the Chaos incident. Sonic helped big save Froggy from Chaos 6 and Eggman. In the last story of *Sonic Heroes*, Big supported Sonic, Tails and Knuckles to defeat Metal Sonic once and for all.
