Crash Bandicoot

[]Crash Bandicoot [ is the central character of the series of the same name. [[Dr. Neo Cortex]] was the one who captured him and evolved him into a human-like bandicoot. Crash was intended to be the general of Cortex's super army, helping him with world domination, but the Cortex Vortex, Cortex's mind controlling device could not control him due to his kind nature, so he was banished but Cortex had just released his worst enemy.



Cortex's Creation
In Crash Bandicoot, Crash was previously a normal bandicoot until he was captured by his arch-nemesis, Dr Neo Cortex and his assistant, Dr. Nitrus Brio. During Crash's captivity he had become attached with a female bandicoot named Tawna. Dr N. Brio created a machine known as the Evolvo-ray giving animals a higher intelligence and abilities. Cortex planned on using this device to make Crash Bandicoot be the general of his army of super animals. Cortex's own device the Cortex Vortex was used to mind control his animal slaves but Crash was so kind the Cortex Vortex could not control him. He was then accounted as a failure and kicked out, but before he got kicked out he met a girl bandicoot named Tawna. When he was kicked out he drifted to N. Sanity Island where he met Aku Aku and then they set out together to stop Cortex and save Tawna. He then makes his way to the Native Village and goes inside the tribe leader Papu Papu's hut where he defeats Papu Papu. Crash then makes his way to a second island where he goes in a temple and defeats another evolved mutant named Ripper Roo and crosses a river. He then makes his way to a volcanic cave mine and defeats Koala Kong and crosses to Cortex Island. Crash crosses the Cortex Power Station and defeats Pinstripe Potoroo. He makes his way through the castle and defeats Cortex's assistant Dr N. Brio who turns himself into a monster who destroys the castle. Crash barely escapes to Cortex's Airship where he has his showdown and defeats Cortex by reflecting his plasma gun. He then leaves the airship with Tawna who presumably go to N. Sanity Island.

Return of Crash
Crash is next seen in Crash Bandicoot 2 with his sister,Coco one year later when her laptop runs out of battery. She then asks Crash to retrieve another battery for her so he sets out but soon he mysteriously disappears. He then appears in a strange warp room and is ordered by a hologram of Cortex to retrieve the power crystals to save the world from an evil planetary force. Later on N. Brio, Cortex's former assistant tells him to collect the gems to stop Cortex. Crash does not know who to believe so he collects both the crystals and gems. Crash first fights Ripper Roo in a waterfall while he trys to stop Crash using TNT Crate's and Nitro Crate and ends up blowing himself up.

If they refuse planet Earth would then be destroyed. It is then later found out that Emperor Velo the 27th learned about Crash from Nitros Oxide seeking his revenge.

Personality and Traits
Crash has foiled Cortex's plans ever since Day 1. Even though Crash is odd and speaks mostly gibberish except in the latest installment where he says simple words like "Coco" and "Pancakes" while most others can understand his jibberish. Crash enjoys basking in the warm sun, sleeping and dancing, he lives on a tropical island, N. Sanity Island, with Aku Aku and Coco, he may not be the smartest out of them but he is the most heroic and bravest. Another of his hobbies is spinning into crates, foes and more. His favorite food is, yes you guessed it, Wumpa Fruit (which resemble apples) and his favorite drink is a commercial drink called Wumpa Whip. This wacky character would prefer to sleep and dance all day but adventure gets in his way.
