Description
Cheese is a small, child-like Chao and the constant companion of Cream the Rabbit in the anime series Sonic X. Originating from a parallel dimension, Cheese was transported to Earth along with Cream and Sonic's friends when an accidental Chaos Control was triggered during a fight with Doctor Eggman. Physically, Cheese has a light blue body with yellow tips on its head, hands, feet, and tail. It possesses dark blue eyes, two pink butterfly-like wings, and a small circular tail. Above its head floats a yellow orb that changes to reflect its emotions. Cheese is distinguished from other Chao primarily by the red bow tie it always wears.
Cheese’s personality is gentle, sensitive, and deeply loyal. It largely emulates the moods and emotions of Cream, its best friend and owner, and is usually seen happily by her side. Cheese enjoys the company of other Chao and feels a sense of belonging when near them, becoming sad when separated from them. While it is typically sweet and positive, Cheese has also shown a fierce protective side, becoming unafraid to fight when its friends are in danger.
The core motivation for Cheese is its dedication to Cream the Rabbit. Cheese follows Cream everywhere, acting as her guardian and partner. Cream in turn considers Cheese a true friend rather than a pet, and shows great concern for its well-being. Their bond is so strong that when given the opportunity to live peacefully with other Chao and the ancient being Tikal, Cheese chooses to stay with Cream instead. Cheese also has a notable, unexplained connection to the water deity Chaos; it rejoices at the sight of Chaos, becomes upset when Chaos is called a monster, and later joins the group of Chao that surround a calmed Chaos.
In the story, Cheese is a supporting character who takes part in all of Cream’s adventures. From the beginning of the series, Cheese joins the group living with Christopher Thorndyke, helping to battle Doctor Eggman and his robots whenever they cause trouble. At the end of the second season, Cheese returns home with Cream. In the third season, Cheese becomes a key fighter against the Metarex, a powerful alien threat in outer space. Despite its small stature, Cheese proves to be a capable combatant.
Throughout the series, Cheese remains a consistent presence, its development being the deepening of its bond with Cream and its growing courage in battle. It transitions from a simple, frightened companion who was captured and examined at Area 99 to an active hero who fights alongside the main cast in the cosmic war against the Metarex.
Cheese has several notable abilities. Like all Chao, it can fly using its wings. Despite its small size, Cheese is surprisingly strong, capable of holding relatively heavy objects like a baseball bat and punching robots many times its size with enough force to destroy them. It can also perform a Spin Attack, rolling into a ball to strike enemies. With Cream, Cheese can execute a powerful combination attack called the Cheese Shot, where it curls into a projectile and is thrown at enemies, often defeating several in one blow. The only word Cheese is able to speak is Chao, using different intonations of this single word to express itself.
