Tawna Bandicoot

Tawna is a character in the Crash Bandicoot series. She is Crash's ex-girlfriend and left Crash for Pinstripe. She apears in only 2 Crash games and has a cameo appearance in The Wrath of Cortex, Twinsanity and Warped.

Apearances
Tawna has so far made 2 appearances. In Crash Bandicoot, she is kept by Cortex and Crash goes on a journey to save her. They can be seen in the end on a blimp, riding away and also riding a bird. She doesn't appear then many games later until Crash Bash and Crash Boom bang. This secures the rumor of Tawna leaving Crash for Pinstripe. It also marks Tawna's first and second playable appearance in the series. She later appears on posters in Crash's home. It is unknown if Tawna will appear in anymore games.

Removal
After the first game, Naughty Dog removed her from the Crash series. The reason for this is because she was found to be innapropriate for young children, since it was a family game. Coco then became Tawna's replacement. It is strange that Tawna appears again in and Crash Boom Bang (playable character) even though she was removed from the series.
