Revision as of 00:54, 22 January 2017

Roxy (ロキシー Rokishī?) is a character from the Final Fight series of beat 'em up, appearing as a member of the Mad Gear Gang. She and Poison are palette swaps of each other. Unlike Poison, who have made several appearences since her debut, Roxy only appears in the first game of the series and at some of its later versions.

Biography

Appearance

Roxy appears very similar to Poison in design, the former has orange hair however instead of Poison's trademark pink color. She wears a black peak cap, a midriff-revealing tanktop, black high-heeled shoes, cutoff red jean shorts and, like Poison, carries around a pair of handcuffs.

In her Street Fighter V profile artwork, Roxy has a red vest and a lacy white band around her left leg. She is shown carrying a metal baseball bat.

Personality

Not much is known about Roxy's personality, but she said to have a characteristically husky voice, possibly implying she has a seductive or bewitching demeanor most of the time. Referred to as "the flower of the Mad Gear Gang", she is one of the few female members of the gang, and enjoys wasting money.[1] She looks up to Poison, who was raised in the same orphanage as her.

Story

Background

Like Poison, not much is known about Roxy's background, as she prefers not to speak about it. She was raised in the same Los Angeles orphanage as Poison was, and the two eventually made her way to Metro City, joining up with the Mad Gear Gang.

Final Fight

Roxy appears as a common enemy in Final Fight, working as a member of the Mad Gear Gang during Belger's attempt to retain his control over Metro City from newly elected Mayor Mike Haggar. She often appears alongside Poison, confronting Haggar, Cody, and Guy as they attempt to rescue Haggar's daughter, Jessica.

After the fall of the Mad Gear Gang, Roxy is active in the Metro City Bay Area alongside fellow ex-Mad Gear members Abigail, Axl, and J.[1]

Trivia

  • Roxy is named after the English rock band Roxy Music.
