Blaze the Cat

Blaze the Cat is a fictional character in the Sonic the Hedgehog series, created by Sonic Team and owned by Sega. She made her debut in the Nintendo DS video game, Sonic Rush. Blaze is a lavender, female anthropomorphic cat with yellow eyes.

Due to heavily conflicting information, she either hails from future or another dimension. She is a princess and the defender of the Sol Emeralds, a role similar to that held by Knuckles. Blaze is sometimes referred to as a Queen; She is referred to as "Queen Blaze the Cat" on the official Sega of America Sonic mini site, Sonic Central, as well as the next Sonic the Hedgehog game website. However, in Japanese, her title is 皇女 kōjo, which translates as "imperial princess," suggesting that the references to "Queen" are simply mistranslations.

She wears gloves similar to those worn by Sonic, only with fuzzy lining on the cuffs. Her shoes have the same motif as Sonic's, but they also have fuzzy lining and are high-heeled. She also wears a purple coat, lined at the neck with gold (possibly a necklace) and at the bottom with red, and a pair of white tights. She has a ponytail, and a jewel-like red orb is present on her forehead.

In the English version of the games, Blaze is voiced by Bella Hudson. She was mistakenly credited as "Berra" Hudson in Sonic Rush, due to translation errors. She also makes a brief cameo in Super Smash Bros. Brawl as a collectable trophy.
