Chaotix

The Chaotix are a group of fictional characters in SEGA's Sonic the Hedgehog universe.
The Chaotix debuted on the game Knuckles' Chaotix. They have since appeared in the Sonic the Hedgehog Archie comics, the British comic series Sonic the Comic, and Sonic X. They are also in the game Sonic Heroes, much to the delight of fans.
The team is composed of:
- Knuckles the Echidna, former leader and full-time loner.
- Mighty the Armadillo, old friend of Sonic. He has strength that can nearly match Knuckles' strength - In Sonic the Comic, he is a rival of Espio.
- Espio the Chameleon, a serious ninja and detective who owns what are possibly the biggest shuriken known to man - In Sonic the Comic, he is a rival of Mighty.
- Vector the Crocodile, a headphone-wearing croc from the hood, with the bling-bling included, who is always blasting music into his head at decibels that would drown out most airplanes - He is the leader of Chaotix in Sonic the Comic and in Sonic Heroes.
- Charmy Bee, a very young and bubbly bee with a heart as big as his stinger - In Sonic the Comic, his humming annoys his colleagues.
- Heavy and Bomb, two mysterious robots who claim they escaped from Eggman, but haven't been seen since.
What first brought this varied group together was the discovery of the Newtrogic High Zone, where Doctor Eggman built a strange amusement park on based on the island's power to amplify the Master Emerald. Dr. Eggman also sent Metal Sonic to fight the Chaotix. After defeating the giant Metal Sonic, the group mostly dispersed.
Knuckles, being the loner he is, quickly went back to guard the Master Emerald. Bomb and Heavy's whereabouts are unknown. Mighty, who had also appeared alongside Sonic and Ray the Squirrel in SegaSonic the Arcade, also went his own way.
Vector, Espio and Charmy however, soon started a detective agency who would do just about anything, within legal reason, for money. Despite the fact that the detective agency has a ninja who throws three-foot wide shuriken, money has been scarce. The story in Sonic Heroes begins after the group receives a strange telephone call.
