Cream the Rabbit

Cream the Rabbit (クリーム・ザ・ラビット, Kurīmu za Rabitto) is a rabbit constantly accompanied by her Chao, Cheese (チーズ, Chīzu). Their names were based on "cream cheese." Cream is portrayed as being naive because of being brought up like a princess by her mother, Vanilla. She always politely minds her manners but sometimes acts childishly. She is always found with Cheese, who distinguishes himself from other Chao with a red bow-tie, and he often attacks for Cream by ramming into her adversaries. Cream can achieve flight for short periods of time by flapping with her two large ears. The character of Cream was conceived as a "sweet girl", so Cheese was created to avoid having her physically attack enemies to keep that trait. Cream is voiced by Sayaka Aoki in all Japanese media, Sarah Wulfeck in English media during 2003 and 2004, and Rebecca Handler in English media from 2005 onwards.

Cream's first playable appearance is in Sonic Advance 2 as the first character saved from Dr. Eggman. She returns in Sonic Heroes as part of Team Rose along with Amy Rose and Big the Cat. She joins with them to search for Cheese's sibling, Chocola, and eventually helps stop Metal Sonic. She is a playable character within Sonic Battle, where she befriends Emerl and teaches him about emotions. She is a playable character in Sonic Advance 3, and befriends the rebuilt Gemerl. She becomes friends with Blaze the Cat during Sonic Rush, she is unlockable in Sonic Riders and Sonic Riders: Zero Gravity, and she is unlockable in the Sonic and the Secret Rings Party Mode. She is also due to make an appearance in Sonic Chronicles: The Dark Brotherhood, as a playable character.

Cream appears in the Sonic X anime and its comic adaptation. She and Cheese support Sonic on his adventures for the Chaos Emeralds and help Cosmo stop the Metarex.
