Blaze the Cat

From Sonic Retro

Template:CharacterSheet Blaze the Cat is a 14-year-old female cat who made her debut in the Nintendo DS video game Sonic Rush. She is a princess (people often refer to her as a queen; however, she is referred to as a princess in the American and European versions) from an alternate dimension, where, similar to Knuckles in Sonic's dimension, she is the defender of the Sol Emeralds. Though she is alone in Sonic's world and painfully shy when meeting strangers, she will not let this prevent her from fulfilling her mission: to retrieve the Sol Emeralds and save her world from destruction. Her dimension and Sonic's are in flux with each other, allowing the characters to travel from one to the other through a tear in the space-time continuum. Blaze is the only playable character aside from Sonic himself, available after Sonic beats Dr. Robotnik in the Leaf Storm Zone.

Throughout the game, she learns the meaning of friendship from Sonic & friends, especially Cream the Rabbit. Cream opens her up to the world and teaches her the value of friendship: the two become close partners like Sonic and Miles "Tails" Prower, similarly to how Tails values Sonic as an older brother and hero, Cream similarly learns to idolise Blaze, if not more in a "friendly" way (wink, wink).

It is through the power of friendship that she realizes the true powers of the Sol Emeralds, and transforms into her super form (Blaze's costume goes red, her wrists/gloves turn to flames and a fire force field develops around her as a product of the Sol Emeralds rather than the lighter colour and force field of Chaos energy usually used with the Chaos Emeralds, but it's easier just to call her Super Blaze for now) to help Super Sonic stop Eggman & Eggman Nega from taking over the universe. After Super Sonic & Super Blaze defeat them, they promise to see each other again and say their goodbyes as they shake hands, being torn apart by their respectful dimensions being returned to normal. Blaze, still in super form, now understands her power, and friendship, as she thinks on Sonic's words of advice.

There is a rumor claiming Blaze's super form is named Phoenix Blaze. This is untrue, as Blaze doesn't have an official name for her super form neither is this name mentioned in the game, but probably the name originates from her fire powers as the legendary bird similarly possesses.

Blaze's next appearance will be in the upcoming Nintendo DS game Sonic Rush Adventure. It is uncertain whether she will be a playable character or not.

Blaze is voiced by Bella Hudson (However, many believe that she is voiced by Rachael Lillis, better known as Misty from Pokémon, much like how many mistook Black Doom's voice for Frank Welker's).

Blaze the Cat

As guardian of the Sol Emeralds, she's currently hot on the trail of Dr. Eggman who's made off with them. Blaze is normally calm and level-headed, but may be concealing her real feelings. Devoted to her position, she sometimes gets bogged down by her own strict discipline, which may explain why she seems a little withdrawn.
