Julie-Su

Julie-Su is a 17 year old pink Echidna on the planet Mobius. She was raised by her foster parents after her mother was killed and her father disappeared, growing up to become a support troop in the Dark Legion. After meeting Knuckles the Echidna for the first time, Julie-Su eventually grew to enjoy his company. She abandoned her status as a Dark Legionnaire, and joined Knuckles' group, the Chaotix. Eventually, her and Knuckles became romantically involved, and eventually started dating. She is currently residing in New Mobotropolis.

Early Life
Born to the former Dark Legion Grandmaster Luger and his second wife Mari-Su, Julie-Su had a troubled life early on. Her half siblings, Kragok and Lien-Da, treated her with distain from the beginning, having been opposed to their father's remarriage. Shortly after the "accident" which claimed her mother's life, Julie-Su's father disappeared, never to be seen again. Her sinister siblings then had her memory erased, as neither wanted her to share in their future role as leaders of the Dark Legion. (SSS: #14)

Julie-Su was then adopted by the Dark Legion couple Simon and Floren-Ca, and was raised with no knowledge of her real parents or siblings. Lien-Da and Kragok attempted to have Simon killed off by sending him with a poorly equipped troop detachment on an attack, but he managed to survive and continued to assist in raising Julie-Su with his wife.

Dark Legionnaire
At the age of 13, Julie-Su became a support trooper in the Dark Legion. The twin half-siblings ensured that Simon and Floren-Ca never revealed her true past or heritage, and she was constantly monitored by the two. (SSS: #14)

When the Dark Legion managed to escape from the Twilight Zone (as a result of Dr. Ivo Robotnik's firing of the Ultimate Annihilator, their forces clashed with Knuckles, the current Guardian of the Floating Island. Knuckles and the Chaotix eventually lead an assault on the Dark Legion's new headquarters, which caused Julie-Su to be separated from the rest of the group. Upon finding her way back to them, she encountered Vector the Crocodile, and easily subdued him. However, Knuckles eventually showed up and apprehended her. (KtE: #4)

Romance
In the current storyline, Julie-Su is Knuckles' girlfriend both of them acknowledging each other as their destined partners through the Echidna six sense called the Soultouch. Julie-Su once stated that Knuckles is her soulmate, the only being who makes her feel like she's more than a soldier. According to several futuristic stories in the series, she marries, or at least is committed to Knuckles and they have a daughter named Lara-Su. However, like other various couplings in the Sonic continuity, the chances of them getting married and/or having a child happening in anything except an alternate future is highly unlikely, unless of course at the end of the comic. The official artists have also already stated that Julie-Su and Knuckles will never be married-at least not in the traditional sense. Julie-Su and Knuckles do not want to go through a traditional wedding, which the Mobius: 25 Years Later story attributes to their belief that commitment means more than ceremony.

Recently, Julie-Su has found a rival for Knuckles' affections: none other than Rouge the Bat. Rouge has vowed to take Knuckles from Julie-Su, despite Julie-Su's warnings. However, Knuckles has not shown any interest in Rouge, and has repeatedly stated that Julie-Su is the only girl he will ever love. Also, since Rouge's interest in Knuckles is purely for her own gain, it is unlikely that she will be able to sway his opinion.

Personality
Julie-Su is very similar to Knuckles in personality, acting tough but in reality, is quite caring. She is an advocate of "girl power", serving as the only female member of the Chaotix until Saffron Bee and later Rouge joined the group. Julie-Su is always willing to go into any danger, particularly when it involves saving Knuckles, whom she always attempts to aid despite his assurances that he doesn't need it.

Julie-Su, known to her friends as Julie, Jules, or 'Su, prefers to go into battle with her friends rather than wait on the sidelines. She is also even more of a tomboy than Sally, and refuses to be seen in a dress in the present of the comics-though she does wear them on special occasions in 25 Years Later. Despite this, she and Sally do share a number of feelings, including a deep desire not to see the men they care about-namely, Knuckles and Sonic-get hurt.
