Miles "Tails" Prower (Archie)

Miles Prower, better known by his nickname Tails, is the son of Amadeus and Rosemary Prower, a close friend of Sonic the Hedgehog and a junior member of the Freedom Fighters.

Early life
Miles was born to Amadeus and Rosemary, on the same day as Dr. Robotnik's takeover of Mobotropolis. Just prior to Robotnik's Coup d'état, Amadeus had discovered the mad scientist's nefarious scheme. Unfortunately, he was thrown into the Roboticizer before he was able to warn the kingdom. Rosemary was subsequently brought in by a SWATbot to also be roboticized, but just before the process occurred, the alien race known as the Bem transported the two foxes off world. This was unknown to everyone on Mobius until Sonic the Hedgehog uncovered the truth during his time in space. Miles had always assumed his parents died during Robotnik's takeover.

Miles was sent away to Knothole along with the majority of Mobotropolis' children, and was raised by Rosie and later Sally Acorn as the young princess got older, leading the young fox to call her "Aunt Sally" from time to time. By the age of four, Miles had received his nickname "Tails" due to the fox's mysterious double tails.

Solo Adventures
Once he became old enough, Tails joined the other Freedom Fighters in their efforts against Robotnik. For all his technical knowledge, he was thought to be too inexperienced to participate in the more dangerous missions for some time. This eventually led him to embark on a solo adventure to the land of Downunda, where he worked together with the Downunda Freedom Fighters to defeat their arch-nemesis Crocbot. During his journey to this continent, he also confronted Octobot, whom he had defeated on a previous occasion. It was also during his time in Downunda that Tails met Athair, great-grandfather of Knuckles the Echidna, who revealed to Tails his destiny as the Chosen One, a being fated to reach divine status and become an even greater hero than Sonic and Knuckles. Explaining that greed and evil often spouted from desire of the Chaos Emeralds, Athair added that the Chosen One was destined to bring about something known as The Great Harmony.

Freedom Fighter
As a Freedom Fighter, Tails assisted his friends in numerous occasions in stopping Dr. Ivo Robotnik and later Doctor Eggman. When Eggman was preparing to destroy both Knothole and Station Square with nuclear missiles, Tails managed to delay the coundown by distracting A.D.A.M. long enough for the others to destroy the battle ship which they would be fired from.

Fighting Master Mogul
Tails and Mammoth Mogul have battled on numerous occasions, the first time following Mogul's theft of the powers of Enerjak to become Master Mogul for the first time. Working together with Super Sonic, Hyper Knuckles, the other Freedom Fighters, the Chaotix, King Acorn's Secret Service, the Brotherhood of Guardians, Athair, and a few other allies, Turbo Tails was able to defeat Mogul by draining away his powers with the Chaos Syphon, creating the Master Emerald and trapping Mogul within it-at least until Dr. Eggman shattered it to feed the then monstrous Chaos.

Saving the Multiverse
Mogul, badly weakened by his imprisonment, used the embers of his power to strike a lethal blow against the Ancient Walkers, the deities who had long been his nemesis and who had made the prophecy of Tails' rise to divinity. Seeking power once again, Mogul captured Turbo Tails and held him prisoner when Turbo Tails was sent to fight Chaos Knuckles, creating a doppelganger of Tails to replace him so that no one would notice. Mogul's schemes were discovered by the doppelganger Tails and Sonic, and after a brief battle which weakened Mogul, the fake Tails vanished while the real one was set free. However, Mammoth Mogul secretly placed a post-hypnotic trigger in his young enemy's mind.

Unfortunately, Mogul obtained enough power to challenge Chaos Knuckles during the time he stole energy from Turbo Tails, resulting in the Guardian's death. Worse, when Knuckles returned from the afterlife, he came back without his powers and left the Chaos Force off balance, allowing Mogul to seize it and become Master Mogul once again. Using his near omnipotent abilities, Mogul proceeded to devastate the multiverse. Alerted to this threat by Zonic the Zone Cop, Tails joined with innumerable alternate versions of himself to become Titan Tails, who defeated Mogul and sealed him in his Chaos Emerald.

The Gathering of the Emeralds
After a comleting the prophecy and the near takeover of Patch D'Coolette, Tails was abducted by A.D.A.M., who intended to use Tails and Shadow the Hedgehog to collect every Chaos Emerald in the universe to give himself unimaginable power. However, A.D.A.M.'s plan was brought to a halt when Eggman woke him and Shadow up. Turbo Tails, working through intuition, had Super Shadow use his time-space warping abilities to access the Zone of Silence; they then sent the collected Chaos Emeralds there, with Tails saying he hoped it would cause "something special." When Tails and Sonic went into the Zone later to retrieve an emerald, they were met by Feist, who gave them the grey Chaos Emerald composed of thousands of others-one of seven he had created- as thanks for them sending him the jewels in the first place. Thus, the Chaos Emeralds had been limited and hidden in the newly-created Special Zone, in part fulfilling the prophesized "Great Harmony".

Sonic vs. Tails
Later, Tails was reunited with his parents with the help of Sonic, Knuckles, and his uncle Merlin. He was then one of the few members of the Freedom Fighters to have escaped being captured by Eggman's forces during the assault on Knothole that resulted in the city's destruction, and assisted Sonic, NICOLE, Amy, and Knuckles in the ensuing rescue mission. Unfortunately, Tails' tense friendship with Sonic deepened to an argument as to how they should proceed with the rescue. This stressed to the point of breaking as the pair found themselves on opposite sides of a schism in the Kingdom of Acorn, Tails supporting the side led by his father and Sonic remaining loyal to the House of Acorn. When Tails helped his mother break Amadeus out of jail, long suppressed hostility was released as he and Sonic fought with each other. Tails was quick to bring up his fury at Sonic's lack of sensitivity, and refused to explain it to the baffled Hedgehog since he felt that Sonic would probably just ignore what he was saying again. Finally, the young Fox revealed that his main dispute with Sonic was over Fiona Fox and Sonic's seeming dismissal of his feelings for her, and Sonic admitted that he had known about Tails' feelings and apologized, explaining that he had hoped that it would help Tails get over his crush. Reconciled, the two headed off to stop a duel between Amadeus and Elias Acorn, only to find out that Sally had beaten them to it. With his father returned to duty, his mother running for a seat on the new ruling council, and his friendship with Sonic restored, Tails' life seemed destined to make an upturn.

Enerjak's Return
Sadly, this was not to be the case, as Dimitri the Echidna arrived with an urgent message for Knuckles: Enerjak, the Guardian's most powerful foe ever, had returned-and just after Knuckles had left for Angel Island by himself, only to disappear mysteriously. In an effort to appease the Chaotix, who were determined to go after their missing leader, Sally sent Tails along with Sonic to look for Knuckles. After narrowly missing Enerjak on Angel Island, Tails accompanied Sonic as they raced back towards New Mobotropolis. What awaited them was the ultimate nightmare: Knuckles, their strongest ally, had become the new Enerjak and thus their worst enemy. After bringing Sonic back to New Mobotropolis, however, Tails had virtually no role in battling the brainwashed Knuckles, and in fact remained in the city for the duration of the battle in which Super Sonic-aided by the sacrifice of Knuckles' father Locke-freed Knuckles' from Finitevus' spell.

The New Fearsome Foursome
Tails then returned to Knothole to help with repairs on Freedom HQ, and was there when Mina Mongoose arrived home from her concert tour. Both of them, along with Mighty the Armadillo, were then revealed to have all had a hypnotic suggestion implanted in them by Mogul years before, who used his telepathic abilities to bring them into his service. When a similar attempt on Sonic proved less than successful, the trio were sent to aid their master's attempts to recruit the Hedgehog into a new Fearsome Foursome-by force. Sonic proved too much for the trio, however, so Mogul commanded Tails to fly into the stratosphere, effectively forcing Sonic to deliver the grey Chaos Emerald to him or else see Tails faint from the lack of oxygen and die from the eventual fall. His demand met, Mogul freed Tails and the other before departing, having decided that he would use his regained immortality to wait until his foes were either dead or too old to fight him before continuing his open campaign of world domination.

The Suppression Squad Later, he and Rotor were attacked by the Suppression Squad in Freedom HQ. Sally, Amy and Bunnie arrived on the scene to fight them off. Rotor sent a message to Sonic, telling him to get back there so he can help them. As the Suppression Squad pressed their attack, Tails found himself facing Anti-Tails, who now went by the name of "Miles". His evil self explained his disgust at Tails, who had seemingly abandoned his gift of Chaos powers in order to pursue a study in mechanics and technology. After the freedom fighters were kicked out of Freedom HQ, Sonic and Amy prepared for their departure to Moebius. After they left, NICOLE reported that Miles was standing outside of their city, armed with bombs. He was sent by Scourge to bomb them, but he didn't complete his mission. Instead, he offered an alliance to the freedom fighters, planning to overthrow Scourge. Once Sally accepted, Tails furiously tried to attack Miles, however, he was held back by Bunnie. However, the Freedom Fighters and Suppression Squad were no match for Scourge. After Sonic returned to take on Scourge, they were both blasted by Boomer and thrown back into Moebius by Miles. Afterwards, Boomer shut down the star posts; therefore, Sonic and Scourge couldn't come back to Mobius. After the departure of Rob O' the Hedge and Silver the Hedgehog, who arrived to find Sonic and subsequently transported to Moebius, Sally told Tails to start fixing up the star posts. He later assisted in taking down Super Scourge after he fixed the posts.

Eggman's Defeat
Following this, Tails constructed a series of Neutralizing Mines, which would be used for the coming battle to bring down Eggman. Tails first used these to neutralize the Dark Egg Legion's weapons, leaving them unable to attack. When the Egg Phoenix arrived on the scene, Tails explained they could use the mines on it as well, but would need to plant them directly on the vessel. While Sonic distracted Eggman, Ray, Charmy and Saffron managed to plant the mines. When the Egg Phoenix began attacking once again, Tails held off activating the mines until it was right over his and Sally's head, despite the latter's orders to activate them sooner. The Egg Phoenix then crashed, but Eggman escaped. While the Freedom Fighters and Chaotix set up camp for the night, Tails conveyed his uneasy about the upcoming battle. Sonic consoled him, explaining they had "saved the day hundreds of times" and that they would do it again. The next day, Tails joined in on the invasion of the Eggdome, taking down fighting the Dark Egg Legion. Unfortunately, they they were unable go any further because of a barricade Espio said was for Sonic to quickly spin dash through. Sonic decided he would go through with it, telling Tails to find a breaking point in the wall before he left. After Bunnie and Mighty finished taking down the barricade, Tails and the Freedom Fighters entered to see a defeated Eggman. Tails and Amy proceded praise Sonic as they all headed back to New Mobotropolis to celebrate.

The Iron Dominion
Shortly after the Eggman Empire's fall, Mina Mongoose and her band, the Forget Me Knots, arranged a victory concert which Tails attended with his parents, but it was disrupted by Monkey Khan who thought them selfish for partying while the rest of the world suffered, in part due to the continued threat of their old shared enemies in the Iron Dominion. A short while after Khan and Sonic returned from their failed mission to liberate New Megaopolis, the Iron Queen and Snively came and took control of Bunnie. Tails was among those who tried to stop the Iron Queen and help Bunnie, but only received a few injuries and a face full of jet smoke for his troubles, leaving him unable to continue fighting.

Afterwards, Tails was sent to back up Sonic who went to investigate a disturbance in the Great Forest, only to discover Sonic facing off against a delirious Dr. Eggman piloting his Egg-Tortoise mech. Eggman was so bent on attacking Sonic that Tails' arrival went completely unnoticed. Tails then snuck underneath the Egg-Tortoise and shorted out the mech, then questioned Sonic as to why he didn't take Eggman down straight away himself. After hearing Sonic's reasons, the two decided the best course of action would be to take Eggman under arrest and back to New Mobotropolis. Before the two could act, however, the Iron Dominion arrived in force and ordered Eggman be returned to their custody. Sonic then ordered Tails to take Eggman back to New Mobotropolis while he held the dominion off. Tails complied with the order, but quickly returned with the other Freedom Fighters to back Sonic up, beating back the invaders long enough for the group to escape into New Mobotropolis. Later, NICOLE dispatched him and Sonic to Fort Acorn in order to evacuate Mes Braves Battalion after the Iron King attacked, and Tails impressed his father Amadeus with his piloting knowledge. Later, he and Sonic talked as he worked on the Tornado, both of them worrying over the growing threat of the Dominion. Then the Iron Dominion issued an attack on the city and the Iron Queen took control of NICOLE, who locked the city down and trapped most of its occupants. After battling in the dark against the Iron Dominion's forces, Tails regrouped with Sonic, Sally and Monkey Khan and headed over to the Tornado and escaped after Monkey Khan blew a hole in the dome encasing them. They then retreated to Freedom HQ, and Sonic had the idea of confronting NICOLE in the digital world using the Particle-To-Light Organizer & Transporter Device. Tails set it up while Sonic explained his plan to Sally, and the two of them went into the digital world while Tails and Monkey Khan stayed behind to keep an eye on things. The two watched as Sonic and Sally fought NICOLE and a gigantic Iron Queen, and Monkey Khan thought to himself of how to control the situation and left the room. Tails realized what he was up to and confronted Monkey Khan before he could go to New Mobotropolis and destroy NICOLE as he'd planned. After a scuffle in the sky, Tails convinced Monkey Khan to wait until Sonic and Sally got back before taking more drastic measures. When they returned, Sonic and Sally told the two of them that NICOLE was back to normal and working undercover for them, and that they would be heading out to the Dragon Kingdom to deal with the Iron Dominion on their own turf and wreck their supporting forces.

Shortly after arriving in the Dragon Kingdom, Tails returned to Stormtop Village and received a tour with his friends of the Temple of the Golden Lotus. He, Sally, and Khan were subsequently captured by members of the Gossamer Clan, who released them after they agreed to meet with the Bride of Endless Reach. After brief negotiations and insight into the history of former foe Uma Arachnis, Tails and his companions convinced the Bride to side with Khan and returned to the temple. After Li Moon provided them all with food and drink, the Yagyu Clan threw a dagger through the temple's window, and broke a teapot Li Moon was holding, but Tails dried her off using his tails as a fan. They were later attacked again by the Yagyu Clan when a few ninja mistook them for travelers, and both Tails and Sonic were excluded from a subsequent meeting with the Yagyu Lord. They found themselves occupied by other matters as Fiona, Sergeant Simian, Predator Hawk, and Flying Frog attacked, defeating the two heroes by ambush. Sally and Khan appeared to even the odds, but Fiona soon called a ceasefire and revealed that she was looking for their help. The Destructix had agreed to work under her in exchange for help in recovering Lightning Lynx, who had returned to the Raiju Clan. After some tense negotiations-including an attempt by Fiona to manipulate Tails' feelings for her-the two groups agreed to a truce, storming the Iron Fortress and confronting the Bride of Conquering Storm. After a subsequent duel between Sonic and Lightning, the Raiju Clan agreed to break away from the Iron Dominion, while Lightning was banished and forced to depart with the Destructix. Faced with the difficulty of locating the Shinobi Clan next, the Freedom Fighters received unexpected help in the form of their old teammate Espio the Chameleon.

Later, their mission in the Dragon Kingdom completed, Tails and his teammates returned to New Mobotropolis to confront the Iron Queen. They arrived just in time to aid Amy, Antoine, and Geoffrey St. John, and were aided in turn as NICOLE revealed her true colors by attempting to capture the Iron Queen. Remaining in the Tornado for much of the battle, Tails was finally able to help when the Iron Queen, her forces scattered, attempted to escape in a mechanical dragon made of nanites, which Tails attacked using his plane's guns.

About a week after the fall of the Iron Dominion, Tails went with Sonic to New Megaopolis. Tails tried to talk to Sonic, to no avail, until he told Sonic that he thought he was becoming too preoccupied with finding Eggman. Sonic then stated that everyone was busy with something since the fall of the dominion and that he didn't want to be the only person doing nothing. He also stated that he was tired of all the surprise invasions, doubtless referring to Knothole's destruction, the Suppression Squad, and the Iron Dominion itself. After he told NICOLE to scan harder, Sonic told Tails that they would check a few hallways before calling it quits. However Tails stated that Sonic had said that "yesterday and the day before that and the day before that", not realizing that he and Sonic were being watched by Dr. Eggman and Snively. Tails' belief that their search would again turn up fruitless was disproved when NICOLE picked up a signal coming from a locked storeroom, which Tails managed to open. The signal led to the two to a box, which contained none other than an immobile Dimitri, whom they rushed back to New Mobotropolis so that Tails could give him an emergency power boost.

Cocoa Island Adventures
Leaving the Tornado with Sonic, Tails dusted off the Sea Fox and equipped it with additional seats so as to take the D'Coolettes with him on a long overdue honeymoon to his own personal retreat: Cocoa Island. As a result, the trio were unavailable to accept an invitation to become honorary members of the new Wolf Pack Nation. Though surprised by the appearance of a previously unseen third island, Tails dismissed it and landed, parting ways with Antoine and Bunnie to head to his workshop. He subsequently built and activated a dog-like robot called T-Pup, and had just settled in to sleep when sounds of battle between his friends and the invading Battle Bird Armada reached him. Tails went outside and found himself attacked by the group, whom he briefly mistook for a Dark Egg Legion chapter, but managed to overcome a few members before being attacked by Speedy, the Sixteenth Battlekukku. The bird was quick to insult Tails as a freak, having witnessed his tail-based flying abilities and proclaiming it unnatural. Tails briefly tried to reason with him, but his explanation for his presence failed to convince the angry Speedy. T-Pup then attacked, enabling Tails to make his escape, only for Speedy to pursue him, Tails barely keeping ahead of him with his own flight abilities. Eventually, Tails managed to elude his pursuer by hiding out on a rock ledge, settling down to rest for the night. The next morning he retrieved the Sea Fox by knocking out the birds set to guard it, and then used it to examine the third island, which he had identified as the Armada's base. He was then attacked by a group of Armada submarines, complimenting them on their stealth technology before defeating them. Unfortunately, damage incurred during the battle forced him to surface or risk his cabin flooding. He emerged just in time to catch a falling Antoine, who fell right on top of him. They returned to shore and Tails ordered T-Pup to find an entrance to the Battle Bird Armada's base. Once inside, Tails stole bombs from two Battle Birds to use later and they then met up with Bunnie who came to assist and gave Tails the schematics of the island she'd secretly downloaded. Using these, Tails determined the whole island was a flying fortress but didn't tell anyone until later. He and the others just charged into the laboratory of Dr. Fukurokov and came face-to-face with his Mole Mech. Tails ordered Bunnie and Antoine to strike the areas of the lab he'd pointed out earlier while T-Pup distracted the Mole Mech and he loosened its joints. When he was finished, a single strike from his wrench made the Mole Mech collapse into pieces and revealed Speedy had been piloting the machine. Tails helped free him from the wreckage and said they could be friends, but Speedy called him a "freak" again and told him to leave. Tails grabbed a damaged T-Pup and headed lower down into the base as it started to shake. The island was taking off and when it seperated from land, all the four had to do was fly down. Tails then prepared drinks for the D'Coolettes back at his cabin and they toasted to having a real vacation. Once their vacation was over, they returned to New Mobotropolis and were greeted by Sally and Amy at Sir Charles's restaurant.

Chaos Concert
Tails and the Freedom Fighters were staking out a free concert by Mina to make sure things didn't get out of hand again when Ixis Naugus and traitor Geoffrey St. John arrived to turn the already paranoid crowd against NICOLE and make Naugus king. The Freedom Fighters attempted back up Sonic in stopping Naugus from getting to the council but Geoffrey stopped got in the way and they were no match for him. Tails was there to witness the Death Egg Mark 2 launch above New Mobotropolis. In the attempt to stop the new Death Egg, Tails flew Sonic and Sally in the Tornado to it, avoid a barrage of heavy artillery, and shot a hole in the Death Egg for Sonic and Sally to enter through. After that he and the rest of the Freedom Fighters acted as distracts until "Operation: Clean Sweep" was put into effect.

Genesis
Tails met Sonic in the Green Hill Zone and was introduced to the Freedom Fighters, where he and Rotor promptly began to geek out over the Tornado. When he learned that the group was going to the Chemical Plant Zone on a adventure he wanted to come too and Sonic assured the others he could take care of himself and the headed off. At the Chemical Plant Zone Sonic and Tails had a race up the pipes to an upper level only to find out that there was an elevator. After they narrowly escaped a room filled with filled with Mega Muck, Sonic decided to leave the group to find Dr. Eggman and Tails naturally came along with him. When they entered the Metropolis Zone to find Eggman Tails felt that it would have been better to had backup, but Sonic assured him that everything will be fine before he headed off.
