Princess Elise the Third
From Sonic Retro
Revision as of 21:37, 25 October 2009 by Dan Genesis (talk | contribs) (I think this is accurate, since the article sas she was 7 when Iblis was sealed in her, and it is stated in-game that that happened 10 years prior to the game.)
Template:CharacterSheetPrincess Elise The Third is a character from Sonic the Hedgehog and is the princess of Soleanna. She is voiced by Lacey Chabert in English and Maaya Sakamoto in Japanese. On the stages where Sonic carries her she can activate a shield that allows Sonic to run on surfaces which would normally cause him to sink, such as water.
When she was seven years old, she was with her father, the Duke of Soleanna, when he tried to extract energy from the sun god of Soleanna, Solaris. The experiment accidentally splits the deity in two entities, but the Duke manages to transfer one half, Iblis, into Elise. He then tells her that she must never cry, as that would release the destructive Iblis, also known as the "Flames of Disaster."
In the present time of the game, Elise celebrates the Festival of the Sun in Soleanna. Doctor Eggman then attacks the city and kidnaps Elise, out to get her Chaos Emerald and the power of the Flames of Disaster locked inside her. Sonic the Hedgehog quickly chases after them. Elise is later killed when the Egg Carrier explodes, but Sonic and Silver use Chaos Control to go back in time and save her.
In the "Last Story", Sonic is killed by Mephiles, the other half of Solaris. Elise breaks down and cries, releasing Iblis, who fuses into Solaris with Mephiles. After Sonic's friends find the seven Chaos Emeralds, Elise uses their powers to heal Sonic, and with the help of a kiss from Elise, Sonic became healed as Super Sonic (Elise heals him with the seven Chaos Emeralds), and then Super Sonic gives some of his power to Shadow and Silver, transforming them into Super Shadow, and Super Silver. After Solaris is destroyed by Super Sonic, Super Shadow, and Super Silver, Sonic and Elise go back in time to when Solaris was just a flame. Elise takes the flame and tells Sonic that if it blows out, the flame that will become Solaris in the future, it will result in her and Sonic never meeting. Though she doesn't want their friendship to end, Sonic convinces her to abandon their meeting. With tears in her eyes, Elise gently blows out the flame, which removes Solaris from existence, thus erasing the whole game's events and happenings. Afterwards, the timeline changes so she is never kidnapped, and never meets Sonic. All the events of the game never happened.
Princess Elise makes a small cameo in Sonic Rivals 2 as a collectible card.
