Fiona Fox

Fiona Fox is a character that appears in the Sonic the Hedgehog comic series and its spin- offs published by Archie Comics.

History: [Imprisonment] As a child, Fiona was one of many mobians that was captured to serve in Dr. Ivo Robotnik's mining camps. Not long after arriving, she and her fellow inmate Mighty the Armadillo and Ray the Flying Squirrel caused an uprising that was quickly quelled by the robots guarding the camp. While Mighty and Ray were locked up in isolation, Fiona was taken away for another purpose. Not long after, a young Sonic the Hedgehog (who was investigating the camp as one of his early Freedom Fighting missions) arrived and freed both Mighty and Ray.

The three then went out in an attempt to rescue Fiona but ultimately failed. Due to the mysterious disappearance of Ray, Mighty went berserk and began trashing the facility, forcing Robotnik to abandon it. Fiona was brought away by Robotnik when he fled and relocated to a new facility built to be identical to the previous one. While there, she was used as the basis for one of Robotnik's many robotic replicas designed to infiltrate the Freedom Fighters. Soon after creating the robotic duplicate, Robotnik left the real Fiona to die in a prison cell.

[Escape & Life as a Treasure Hunter] After a long period of imprisonment, Fiona realized that, like at the lab, no one would rescue her, and thus she became determined to do so herself. Through long, grueling attempts she managed to dig an escape tunnel from her cell, eventually reaching freedom outside. The first person she encountered was Nicolette the Weasel, a bounty hunter on a treasure hunting mission.

Fiona and Nic both became involved in treasure hunting and thievery, which soon resulted in a rivalry with Rouge the Bat. The two later were joined by Bean the Dynamite and Bark the Polar Bear, all of whom suffered defeat in underground fighting tournaments thanks to Rouge. Eventually she and Nic returned to the mining camp to see if they could find anymore Power Gems; unfortunately, the lab door was locked and neither could open it.

Fiona remained somewhat embittered by her past encounter with Sonic and Mighty. This became apparent after Nic decided to gain Mighty's assistance to gain access to the laboratory, as Fiona explained how she felt abandoned by the two. While exploring the camp, they discovered several unused robotic replicas of the Freedom Fighters. Eventually they reached the door, and Mighty forced it open. Inside they discovered a Power Gem - as well as Ray, who had apparently been stuck in a form of suspended animation by the gen. Despite herself, Nic destroyed the gem in order to free Ray.

[Freedom Fighter] Sometime after Sonic's apparent death due to the Quantum Dial, Fiona joined the Freedom Fighters. She acted in a general capacity, showing both computer and medical skills. Upon Sonic's return from space, Fiona accompanied the Freedom Fighter task force sent to Old Megaopolis to prevent Eggman from launching nuclear missiles at both Station Square and Knothole. While on board the FFS-M2, Fiona asked Rotor if they should all have space suits, as the ship flew to Mobius' outer atmosphere. Later, she provided medical attention to Sonic, who'd been wounded by Eggman's robotic "daughter", Mecha. Fiona was also the one to explain to Sonic that Antoine and Bunnie had broken up during his absence in space.

Fiona accompanied the Freedom Fighters during their mission to an ancient laboratory to discover the cause of severe seismic activities. She briefly left the group in an attempt to hot- wire the lab's systems, though due to its self-defences she was unable to. At one point, Fiona, Rotor and Bunnie had all been electrocuted by the lab's self-defence systems, but were saved in time by Tommy Turtle. After, Fiona discovered a heavily powered rifle, but was informed by Rotor the Freedom Fighters never resorted to gun-like weapons. Fiona accompanied the Freedom Fighters to the Nanite City to rescue Bunnie, and was wary of working with Snively to prevent the nanites from spreading. During
