**History**

Calla was born on May 14, 2004, in Walhalla, Texas, United States.

In June 2016, Connor Banjoper introduced Calla, along with the other Banjoper-designed characters, to Blaze the Cat and Colette the Mouse. Then, they all started their friendships with each other and started developing the Blaze the Cat franchise.

In 2019, Calla helped the other Blaze Characters (including Blaze herself) protest SEGA putting Blaze in "Team Sonic Racing".

Calla was on Blaze's team in the Tokyo 2021 Olympic Games. She competed in artistic gymnastics, 200-meter swimming, rugby sevens, fencing, trampolining, badminton, beach volleyball (as an alternate), triple jump, and soccer (AKA association football). She teamed with Grigio the Lizard for the badminton tournament.

Her most notable accomplishment in the Tokyo 2021 Olympics was when she broke the world record for the triple jump by using her wings to fly over the landing pit (after the third jump only) and landing on the very edge of it. (The referee, Pete Tozer, decided not to penalize Calla for this.) Her world record was declared unbeatable (with it being on the very edge of the landing pit and all).

After the Olympics, Calla and the other Blaze Characters launched the Blaze the Cat franchise and became very successful. Calla has been enjoying her life in Barhamsville since.

**Trivia**

- Calla's species, Plavakrila Butterfly, was actually made up by Connor Banjoper, since there are no real-life butterfly species with wings that resemble Calla's.

- Despite being an insect, Calla only has four limbs, whereas a normal butterfly has six.

~ - This is because Calla is anthropomorphic.

- Calla is best friends with both Grigio the Lizard and Chocolate the Rabbit.

- Calla is one of the two major Blaze Characters that can fly - the other being Lapis the Vulture.

- Calla is the second youngest of the 12 major Blaze Characters. (The youngest is Chocolate the Rabbit.)

- Calla is one of the pacifists among the 12 major Blaze Characters - the other one being Lunar the Chipmunk.

~ - Coincidentally, these two characters happen to have the same middle name.

**Quotes**

"I haven't had this much fun since your mother's 20th birthday." - (Calla telling Annika how much fun she's having on the deserted island in the movie that takes place in the Summer of 2019.)

"But, if we don't tell anyone, how is SEGA gonna know that it's gone, so they can't sue us for using you in non-Sonic-related media?" - (Calla wondering how SEGA would know the copyright notice was gone if the Blaze characters didn't tell anyone. (From the transcript of a planned movie that takes place in 2019.))

"I was intending to jump from all three of the boards, then once I make my third jump, that's when I fly." - (Calla explaining how she can win the Tokyo 2021 Olympic triple jump event.)

"I knew I was going to win this the moment I found out about it!" - (Calla telling Jill Martin how proud she is of winning the gold medal in the aforementioned event.)

"You guys are such jerks!" - (Calla calling out Team Sonic for their bad behavior towards Team Blaze during the Tokyo 2021 Olympiad. (This was during the argument between Team Blaze and Team Sonic on the second-to-last day of the Tokyo 2021 Olympic Games.))
