— Wendy Naugus, Sonic Universe #83

Wendy "Witchcart" Naugus is a character that appears in the Sonic the Hedgehog comic series and its spin-offs published by Archie Comics. She is an evil troll witch and the twin sister of Walter Naugus. She commands a group of minions known as the Witchcarters[2] and is currently an Egg Boss of the Egg Army.[3]

Appearance[]

Classic Wendy

Wendy’s past outfit, from Sonic Universe #83.

Wendy looks like a slimmer, female version of her brother, though somewhat more human in anatomy. She wears a black and magenta witch's hat, a black and magenta cape, a dark blue, long-sleeved shirt with a magenta stripe down the front and on each sleeve, a long, dark blue skirt with a white, zipper-like line down the front similar to the ones on Dr. Eggman’s coat, a white pair of gloves, a pair of light blue bracelets, and a magenta pair of boots with white soles and white buckle shapes on the feet. Like her brother, Wendy also has red eyes, sharp teeth, a long tail, pointed ears, and a horn on her head, which is usually hidden under her hat. Wendy also possesses a large, pointy nose, a three-fingered claw for a right hand with a small spike on her palm, and long, white hair which grows into spikes, though the top of her head is bald. In the past, Wendy wore a long, dark blue dress with long sleeves, and magenta boots with white soles and white squares on the feet.

History[]

Past[]

At some point, Wendy and her minions seized control of an island and its inhabitants, with Wendy herself threatening to crystallize any dissenters. During this time, Wendy assisted her twin brother Walter Naugus in kidnapping Dr. Eggman and Sonic the Hedgehog in the Egg Storm Chamber and hauled them back to the island.[4] However, Miles "Tails" Prower came to the island and began liberating the inhabitants from Wendy while searching for Sonic. One by one, Tails defeated Wendy's minions before encountering Wendy, who, despite having the aid of Walter, was thwarted by Tails, freeing the island's inhabitants from her tyranny.[4][5] Later, Wendy would go to Eggman and trade him a few magical relics in exchange for some of his advanced technology.[3]

Shattered World Crisis[]

Act Two[]

During the Shattered World Crisis, Wendy, her brother Walter Naugus, and her minions invaded Eggmanland shortly after it became fully operational.[2][4] In response, Dr. Eggman gathered his various Egg Bosses and formed them into a team to challenge the magicians and reclaim the facility.[4][6][6][7] After the confrontation, Wendy was left at the mercy of Eggman who decides to make her an Egg Boss of his Egg Army. Her first assignment was to find a special conch that he had somehow lost from his inventory.[3]

She was later called by Eggman so that he could make use of the Witchcarters by sending them to invade Mobotropolis with the Hooligans and Metal Sonic. This did not please Wendy very much, but due to her affiliation with the Eggman Empire, she had to comply anyway.[8]

Personality[]

Wendy is a crazy mischief-maker and takes pleasure in the misfortune of others. She has cowardly tendencies as well, as she quickly changed sides when faced with Eggman's wrath. She appears to have a crush on Eggman, much to his dismay. Wendy is a cruel person, showing willingness to enslave others with her mind control, although she does show some level of affection to her minions, calling them "dearies". Wendy has a strong sibling rivalry with her brother Walter. She enjoys mocking him and the two of them constantly argue. Although Wendy is evil, she does place some value on family, claiming that the sole reason she helps Walter is because they are family, even though she cannot stand him. Despite possessing magic, Wendy is a tech enthusiast, and has made dealings with Eggman in the past by offering to trade magical trinkets for advanced technology. Unlike her brother Walter, Wendy claims she is "not the conquering type", despite once ruling over an island with an iron fist. She has also been said to be very independent and driven.

Powers and abilities[]

Wendy possesses Crystalmancy, which allows her to encase her opponents in crystal and control any crystallized robots within range. Wendy can also shapeshift, fire energy bolts, telepathically communicate with Walter through their horns, and control the minds of anyone with a weak will or weak mind.[7] Wendy also has a degree of experience using technology.[5]

Equipment[]

Wendy used to possess a jet-powered, two-wheeled land vehicle resembling a mine cart, which she could drive around in at high speeds. Her mine cart vehicle was fast enough to drive on walls. However, it was destroyed by Eggman.[3] Wendy has also used a different, four-wheeled land vehicle.[6] She also owns a large collection of magical relics.[3]

Relationships[]

Walter Naugus[]

Wendy has a strong sibling rivalry with her brother Walter Naugus and the two of them constantly argue. Wendy enjoys laughing at Walter and mocking him to get a rise out of him. Wendy is irritated by how Walter criticizes her for using technology. Wendy looked out for her brother for the sole reason that they are family, although she was willing to betray him if she was backed into a corner. They seem to now be nothing more than enemies, with Walter swearing revenge on Wendy for joining Eggman.

Dr. Eggman[]

Wendy has an unrequited crush on Dr. Eggman and thinks that he is handsome. Wendy often flirts with Eggman, much to his dismay, and she also respects him as a villain, commending him on his attempt to fight back against her and her brother and claiming she would expect nothing less from him. Despite her crush on him, Wendy was willing to help her brother attack him and take control of Eggman Land, though she claims that Eggman is only Walter’s enemy and not hers. Wendy also fears Eggman, groveling for mercy after Eggman defeated her. In exchange for sparing her life after defeating her, Wendy now works for Eggman as his twelfth Egg Boss, although she expresses annoyance at having to share her Witchcarters with him.

Trivia[]

  • Wendy is based on the main antagonist of Tails' Skypatrol, who was known simply as Witchcart.
  • Despite the mandate that Sega placed that prohibits Sonic characters adapted from the video games from having relatives originating from outside the video games, Wendy was allowed to have Walter Naugus as a brother. The reason for this is unknown.
