Amy Rose (Archie)

Amy Rose is from the country of Mercia, a province of the Acorn Kingdom across the sea. There she lived for a while with her cousin, Rob O' the Hedge, leader of the Mercian branch of Freedom Fighters. When Robotnik took over, he put the Robian General D'Coolette in charge of Mercia. As things went bad to worse, Rob sent Amy away to live in Knothole where she would hopefully be much safer. It is unknown what happened to Amy's parents.

Sonic's Number One Fan
While living in Knothole, Amy became Sonic's "biggest fan", even wanting to marry him one day. In a flashback it was shown Amy tried to become part of the Freedom Fighters but was denied by Sally Acorn. Amy had accused Sally that her reason for doing so was so she 'won't get closer to Sonic', however the reason was that Amy was far too young at the time (as she was only 8 years old) and did not have the experience like Tails had. She constantly sent fan mail to him, hoping to get his attention. Unfortunately, Dr. Robotnik found this mail and sent his newest creation, Metal Sonic, to kidnap the young hedgehog. He then used her as a hostage to get Sonic to come to the Collision Chaos Zone, which he did. Sonic's best friend, Tails, was also kidnapped and held hostage with Amy but Sonic defeated Metal Sonic and rescued both, resulting in Amy wanting to marry him even more. When Sonic had been put in prison for treason, after being accused of allowing himself to be roboticized so that he could become stronger, Amy naturally protested against it. During Sonic's trial, Antione humorously "badgered" Amy for trying to get a badger to join her Sonic Fan Club.

After the death of Robotnik, Amy continued to help the Freedom Fighters with certain tasks, such as the rebuilding Mobotropolis.

===Upgrade to Teenager=== When Nate Morgan and the Freedom Fighters were getting ready to go to the Hidden City of the Ancients (aka Station Square), Amy wondered if she could come along as well. But Sonic and the others were totally against it, saying Amy was too young. Amy, sad at not being old enough, walked around Knothole until she came across the Ring of Acorns and touched it, wishing to be older. The ring granted her wish and although she had aged physically, she still had the mind of an 8-year-old. After this Amy once again requested to join the Freedom Fighters, but was denied again by Sonic, who told her having an older body is not enough she still had the mentality of an 8-year-old and still had no fighting experience. But Nate, wanting to examine her, thought that she might as well come along.
