Jian the Tiger is a character that appears in the Sonic the Hedgehog comic series and its spin-offs published by Archie Comics. She is a member of the Shijin Warriors who defected from the Egg Clan Army and now fights to oppose them.[2]

Appearance[]

Jian is a white mobian tiger with black stripes on her arms, back, muzzle and tail. She also has two black eyebrow-like markings and black ears with white canals that droop somewhat. She has jade green eyes, a black nose and two pigtails that are black in the middle held together by jade green scrunchies.

For attire, she wears a red tube top, a red bandana, black tracksuit pants with a white lace, red and black gloves with jade green bracelets around her wrists, and red shoes with black soles. The end of her tail is cybernetic with an attached blade.

History[]

Past[]

Early on in her life, Jian joined the Egg Clan Army. Enticed with their pride of strength and unity, she soon realized their cause was not one she wanted to be a part of and left.[1] She would later answer Dulcy the Dragon's call to arms and joined the Shijin Warriors, a Freedom Fighter group.[2]

Shattered World Crisis[]

Act Two[]

JIAN

During the Shattered World Crisis, Jian and her teammates were visited by and introduced to the Freedom Fighters, old friends of Dulcy's, who were in search of Gaia Key Guardian Zonshen.[2] The two parties were able to mount an ambush against the Egg Clan Army while Sonic kept the corrupted Gaia Phoenix preoccupied. Jian and the others succeeded in their respective tasks, allowing the Freedom Fighters access to Zonshen's Gaia Key.[3]

Later, Jian and her teammates were contacted by Sonic the Hedgehog and Sally Acorn, both of whom discussed a plan that involved a worldwide assault against the Eggman Empire. Jian and the others agreed to this plan,[4] and later oversaw the restoration of the planet.[5]

Personality[]

Jian appears to be the most serious member of her team and to have a sense of respect. She also appears to like unity through strength and hard work, and claims that this is what drew her to the Egg Clan Army initially.

Powers and abilities[]

Jian is a capable fighter in combat and has a hidden blade built into her cyberized tail that she can produce from her tail tip and use to cut down her foes.[1] She is also able to perform the Spin Dash as well.[3]

Trivia[]

  • Jian's appearance, a white tigress, is a reference to the White Tiger of the Sixiang, a mythical beast that represents the Chinese cardinal direction of west and the season of autumn.
