The Noid

"N. Tropy brought me here to stop you bandicoots! I'd like to see you try to avoid me."

- The Noid

The Noid is an advertising mascot character for pizza chain Domino's Pizza, originally starring in an advertising campaign running from 1986 to 1989. As part of a cross-promotion for his revival in 2021, he was added as a henchman in Crash Bandicoot: On the Run!.

Crash Bandicoot: On the Run!
For a limited time during the Running Outta Time season, The Noid was brought to Crash's dimension by N. Tropy (F) as a henchman to battle with Crash and Coco. He has a freeze ray as a weapon, attacking by firing bolts of ice at the player. Like all henchmen, he is defeated by reaching him and using the Portal Weapons crafted beforehand to send him back to his own dimension. Despite his freeze ray weapon, he is classified as an inferno enemy, with bonus trophies given when wearing skins with bonuses against inferno bosses. He can also be seen at the mission screen, demanding that Crash and Coco gather ingredients and weapons for him in return for trophies.

Personality
The Noid is an erratic, aggressive imp who will stop at nothing to destroy any pizza he sees, particularly those of Domino's. He is described as being the physical manifestation of the challenges that come with making and delivering pizza quickly.

Physical Appearance
The Noid is a short, light-skinned imp with orange eyes. Most of his body is covered in a red bodysuit with rabbit-like ears and a black and white N logo on his stomach. There are white gloves on his hands and his shoes have white soles.
