The group consists of three singing chipmunks: '''Alvin''', the mischievous troublemaker, who quickly became the star of the group, '''Simon''', the tall bespectacled intellectual, and '''Theodore''', the chubby, impressionable sweetheart. The trio is &quot;managed&quot; by their [[human]] &quot;father&quot; and confidant, David Seville. In reality, David Seville was Ross Bagdasarian's stage name, and the Chipmunks themselves are named after the executives of their original record label, Liberty Records: Alvin Bennett (the president), Simon Waronker (the founder and owner), and Theodore Keep (the chief engineer).<br /> [[File:Chipmunks first three albums.jpg|thumb|On the covers of the first three albums (left), the chipmunks looked a lot more realistic than they do now.

Simon possesses a very dry sense of humor as well as a keen wit. His chess master mind allows him to anticipate what he calls Alvin's &quot;harebrained schemes&quot; and devise a solution that is inevitably required. Although Simon loves Alvin, Simon secretly worries about the fact that they share the same gene pool. However, Simon will drop whatever he's doing to help his brothers whenever they need him. Simon's signature color is blue. In all recordings from 1958 to 1972, he was voiced by Ross Bagdasarian, and in all recordings from 1972 onward, he is voiced by Ross Bagdasarian, Jr. In the 2007 live-action film, his speaking voice is done by Matthew Gray Gubler.<br /> <br /> [[Category:Chipmunk characters]]<br /> [[Category:1958 births]]</div>

Alvin is an emotional roller coaster and leader of the group. His enthusiasm is boundless. He is somewhat greedy and selfish, but loves his brothers. He is a fearless chipmunk. He'll even stick up for his little brother Theodore (best shown in the teaser trailer for the 2007 film, where Dave suspects Theodore leaving behind a dropping, and Simon passes it off as a raisin, even going as far as to eat it). Alvin's favorite things are his harmonica and his cap, which he always wears (except in the 2007 live-action/animated film based on the cartoon). He doesn't like anybody touching his cap, and he has no trouble in saying so, “Don't...touch...the cap!”. His signature color is red. He doesn't follow anybody's rules, not even his own. From 1958 to 1972, he was voiced by Ross Bagdasarian, and all recordings from 1972 to the present, he is voiced by Ross Bagdasarian, Jr. In the 2007 live action film, his speaking voice is done by Justin Long.<br /> <br /> [[Category:Chipmunk characters]]<br /> [[Category:1958 births]]</div>

<p>Fangusu: /* Story */</p> <hr /> <div>[[Image:S23685 ps2 14.jpg|thumb|right|A picture of Sly Cooper.]]<br /> '''Sly Cooper''' (known as '''Sly Raccoon''' in Europe) is the star character and anti-hero of three platform games developed by Sucker Punch Productions for the Sony PlayStation 2.<br /> <br /> While the game features characters that are considered 'furry' by the [[Furry_fandom|fandom]], it is unlikely that they were created with [[furries]] in mind.<br /> <br /> == Story ==<br /> <br /> Sly is a young [[raccoon]] who is descended from a long line of master thieves. He grew up an orphan after his father was killed by a gang known as the Fiendish Five. This gang also stole the Thievius Raccoonus, a book containing the Cooper family's thieving techniques. Sly's quest to recover his family's book is the basis for the first game.<br /> <br /> Sly's primary weapon in the games is his family's cane.<br /> <br /> Sly Cooper is aided in his adventures by his friends Bentley, a brainy [[turtle]], and Murray, a strong, muscular [[hippopotamus]].<br /> <br /> Sly and his friends make their home in Paris, but the nationality of the characters is never made clear in the games.<br /> <br /> The world in which Sly Cooper and his friends live appears to be inhabited only by anthropomorphic animals.<br /> <br /> Sly's archenemy is Clockwerk, a mysterious robotic [[owl]]. He is likely the only animal in the game that is sapient, but not anthropomorphic. Clockwerk is revealed to have been hunting Sly's family line for years, which led to his decision to replace his body with machinery. It is also revealed that Clockwerk spared his life in the attack on his family to prove that the Cooper Clan would be unable to be great thieves without the Thievius Raccoonus.<br /> <br /> In the first game, Clockwerk serves as the final boss, as well as the man &quot;pulling the strings&quot;.<br /> <br /> The second game focuses on a different gang, the Klaww Gang, who has stolen the pieces of Clockwerk's body that were left over after the first game to use in their own plans, and Sly's attempts to recover them.<br /> <br /> In both games, Cooper and his friends are pursued by Inspector Carmelita [[Fox]], a detective from Interpol. Although the two are bitter rivals, they team up on occasion to defeat common foes. Carmelita is also portrayed as a possible love interest for Sly.<br /> [[File:Sly Comics.png|thumb]]<br /> Sly Cooper and other characters from the games were also featured in a comic book published in 2004 by Gamepro Magazine to promote the release of '''Sly 2: Band of Thieves'''. Issue #2 was made in 2005 to promote '''Sly 3: Honor Among Thieves'''.<br /> <br /> The third game, '''Sly 3: Honor Among Thieves''', takes place about a year after '''Sly 2: Band of Thieves'''. It's the first in the series where Clockwerk isn't the main enemy.<br /> <br /> ==Biography==<br /> [[File:Thievius Racoonus.png|thumb]]<br /> Born into a long line of thieves, Sly was destined to inherit the archive of their techniques, the Thievius Raccoonus. However, Sly is robbed of his family and his inheritance when a ruthless gang of thieves raids his home and kills his family, along with stealing and dividing the Thievius Raccoonus. Sly winds up in an orphanage, where he meets his two best friends, Bentley the turtle and Murray the hippo. After forming their brotherhood, they set out to make a name for themselves. In doing so, they earn the attention of Inspector Carmelita Fox, whom Sly becomes rather attracted to.<br /> [[File:Band of Thieves.png|thumb]]<br /> After years of searching, Sly finds out where the Fiendish Five are and takes them down one by one. He learns about Clockwerk's relation to his family, and retrieves the Thievius Raccoonus. Afterwards, he tricks Carmelita with a kiss, and her reaction, though unnoticed by Sly, shows that she in turn cares for him.<br /> [[File:Honor Among Thieves.jpg|thumb]]<br /> Two years later, Sly and co. return to destroy the Clockwerk parts to prevent their use by evil. After surving harrowing challenges, they defeat the Klaww Gang. Meanwhile, Sly's feelings of friendship with his pals and attraction towards Carmelita grow. This adventure ends in tragedy, as Bentley is injured.<br /> <br /> A year later, Sly goes after the Cooper Vault, the location of his family's stolen fortune. Recruiting several new members to the team, Sly sets out to break into it. Along the way, Sly conflicts with the addition of Panda King to the group. Finally, druing a near fatal encounter with Dr. M's simian monster, Sly realizes how much Carmelita means to him. After the final battle with M, Sly is hit and then fakes amnesia, causing Carmelita to take him home with her.

Like Bentley, Murray was rather nervous about field work, but worked as the gang's getaway driver.

<p>Fangusu: /* Allies */</p> <hr /> <div>[[Image:S23685 ps2 14.jpg|thumb|right|A picture of Sly Cooper.]]<br /> '''Sly Cooper''' (known as '''Sly Raccoon''' in Europe) is the star character and anti-hero of three platform games developed by Sucker Punch Productions for the Sony PlayStation 2.<br /> <br /> While the game features characters that are considered 'furry' by the [[Furry_fandom|fandom]], it is unlikely that they were created with [[furries]] in mind.<br /> <br /> == Story ==<br /> <br /> Sly is a young [[raccoon]] who is descended from a long line of master thieves. He grew up an orphan after his father was killed by a gang known as the Fiendish Five. This gang also stole the Thievius Raccoonus, a book containing the Cooper family's thieving techniques. Sly's quest to recover his family's book is the basis for the first game.<br /> <br /> Sly's primary weapon in the games is his family's cane.<br /> <br /> Sly Cooper is aided in his adventures by his friends Bentley, a brainy [[turtle]], and Murray, a strong, muscular [[hippopotamus]].<br /> <br /> Sly and his friends make their home in Paris, but the nationality of the characters is never made clear in the games.<br /> <br /> The world in which Sly Cooper and his friends live appears to be inhabited only by anthropomorphic animals.<br /> <br /> Sly's archenemy is Clockwerk, a mysterious robotic [[owl]]. He is likely the only animal in the game that is sapient, but not anthropomorphic. Clockwerk is revealed to have been hunting Sly's family line for years, which led to his decision to replace his body with machinery. It is also revealed that Clockwerk spared his life in the attack on his family to prove that the Cooper Clan would be unable to be great thieves without the Thievius Raccoonus.<br /> <br /> In the first game, Clockwerk serves as the final boss, as well as the man &quot;pulling the strings&quot;.<br /> <br /> The second game focuses on a different gang, the Klaww Gang, who has stolen the pieces of Clockwerk's body that were left over after the first game to use in their own plans, and Sly's attempts to recover them.<br /> <br /> In both games, Cooper and his friends are pursued by Inspector Carmelita [[Fox]], a detective from Interpol. Although the two are bitter rivals, they team up on occasion to defeat common foes. Carmelita is also portrayed as a possible love interest for Sly.<br /> <br /> Sly Cooper and other characters from the games were also featured in a comic book published in 2004 by Gamepro Magazine to promote the release of '''Sly 2: Band of Thieves'''. Issue #2 was made in 2005 to promote '''Sly 3: Honor Among Thieves'''.<br /> <br /> The third game, '''Sly 3: Honor Among Thieves''', takes place about a year after '''Sly 2: Band of Thieves'''. It's the first in the series where Clockwerk isn't the main enemy.<br /> <br /> ==Biography==<br /> [[File:Thievius Racoonus.png|thumb]]<br /> Born into a long line of thieves, Sly was destined to inherit the archive of their techniques, the Thievius Raccoonus. However, Sly is robbed of his family and his inheritance when a ruthless gang of thieves raids his home and kills his family, along with stealing and dividing the Thievius Raccoonus. Sly winds up in an orphanage, where he meets his two best friends, Bentley the turtle and Murray the hippo. After forming their brotherhood, they set out to make a name for themselves. In doing so, they earn the attention of Inspector Carmelita Fox, whom Sly becomes rather attracted to.<br /> [[File:Band of Thieves.png|thumb]]<br /> After years of searching, Sly finds out where the Fiendish Five are and takes them down one by one. He learns about Clockwerk's relation to his family, and retrieves the Thievius Raccoonus. Afterwards, he tricks Carmelita with a kiss, and her reaction, though unnoticed by Sly, shows that she in turn cares for him.<br /> [[File:Honor Among Thieves.jpg|thumb]]<br /> Two years later, Sly and co. return to destroy the Clockwerk parts to prevent their use by evil. After surving harrowing challenges, they defeat the Klaww Gang. Meanwhile, Sly's feelings of friendship with his pals and attraction towards Carmelita grow. This adventure ends in tragedy, as Bentley is injured.<br /> <br /> A year later, Sly goes after the Cooper Vault, the location of his family's stolen fortune. Recruiting several new members to the team, Sly sets out to break into it. Along the way, Sly conflicts with the addition of Panda King to the group. Finally, druing a near fatal encounter with Dr. M's simian monster, Sly realizes how much Carmelita means to him. After the final battle with M, Sly is hit and then fakes amnesia, causing Carmelita to take him home with her. In reality, Sly did it to grow closer to her.<br /> <br /> ==Allies==<br /> <br /> '''Cooper Gang'''<br /> [[File:Cooper-gang.png|thumb|Cooper Gang]]<br /> *'''Bentley'''- A [[turtle]] who Sly met at the orphanage, Bentley is the brains of Sly's gang. Originally a timid computer expert, Bentley evolved into a confident demolitions expert. During the final battle with Clockwerk, Bentley received an injury that left him confined to a wheelchair. Undaunted, he tricked out the wheelchair with bombs and heavy-duty sleep darts.<br /> <br /> *'''Murray'''- A [[hippo]] who Sly met at the orphanage, Murray is the team's muscle. Like Bentley, Murray was rather nervous about field work, but worked as the gang's getaway driver. Two years after the Fiendish Five, Murray had transformed into a mighty wrestler known as &quot;the Murray&quot;. Because he blamed himself for Bentley's injury, Murray attempted to find solace. However, he quickly returned to help out his buddies.<br /> <br /> *'''The Guru'''- An Australian [[Koala]] Aborigine and master of the mystic &quot;Dream Time&quot;, the Guru served as Murray's teacher. He later joined the gang, serving as mystic expert. The Guru's gear consists of a walking stick and Moon Stone, and he speaks in an odd language that only other characters can understand.<br /> <br /> *'''Penelope'''- A skilled pilot and tech expert, Penelope is a female version of Bentley except for the fact that she is a [[mouse]]. Under the alias of the &quot;Black Baron&quot;, Penelope was a top pilot in Holland whom the gang recruited for battling Dr. M. She and Bentley later fall in love like Sly and Carmelita.<br /> <br /> *'''[[Giant Panda|Panda]] King'''- A former member of the Fiendish Five, Panda King now joins the Cooper Gang as their demolitions expert on the condition that they help him save his daughter, Jing King, from the evil General Tsao.<br /> <br /> *'''Dimitri''' ([[Marine Iguana]])- A former KLAWW gang member, Dimitri now joins the gang as their frogman on the count that they help him find his grandfather's diving gear and stolen treasure from pirates. <br /> <br /> '''Interpol'''<br /> <br /> *'''Inspector Carmelita Fox'''- An Interpol inspector, Carmelita has devoted years of her life to pursuing Sly Cooper and his cohorts. Equipped with an electrical pistol, Carmelita is obsessive in her hunting of Sly.<br /> <br /> ==Enemies==<br /> <br /> === Sly Cooper and the Thievius Raccoonus ===<br /> <br /> '''The Fiendish Five'''<br /> <br /> *'''Clockwerk''' - An [[owl]] who some time in the distant past developed a hatred for the Cooper clan. Clockwerk founded the Fiendish Five, and personally wiped out Sly's parents. The giant bird has replaced his body with robotic parts to supplement his hatred of the Cooper clan, which kept him alive. Clockwerk then confronted Sly in battle, and Sly beat him by destroying his head. However, Clockwerk's spectre would return to haunt Sly in the form of his components, which were stolen by the Klaww Gang. <br /> <br /> *'''Muggshot the [[Bulldog]]''' - Born the runt of the litter, Muggshot was mocked and teased by everyone in the neighborhood. The only friends he could find were on the big screen, where he saw his first gangster. Inspired, Muggshot worked out for the rest of his childhood, turning into a gigantic mass of muscle. Following his theft of Tennessee Kid Cooper's section of the Thievius Raccoonus, he took off for Mesa City to establish himself as a gambling kingpin. However, Sly and the gang were able to defeat him, and he was dragged off to jail. He later reappears in Holland at the ACES competition, fails in his attempt to destroy the Cooper Gang's plane and hangar, and is then busted by Inspector Carmelita.<br /> <br /> *'''Mz. Ruby''' ([[Alligator]]) - As the descendant of a family of voodoo mystics, Mz. Ruby was feared as a child. Learning to summon the undead, Mz. Ruby turned to crime. After she stole Slytankhamen's section of the Thievius Raccoonus, she headed into the Haitian jungle. She established a massive voodoo facility, creating an army of voodoo zombies. However, Sly was able to penetrate her Skull Temple, and beat her in a voodoo face off. Mz. Ruby's zombie production (illegal worldwide) earned her a life sentence in jail.<br /> <br /> *'''[[Giant Panda|Panda]] King''' - A poor child growing up on the streets of China, the Panda King was fascinated with fireworks. He spent 10 years learning the art, then attempted to present his works to the noblemen of China, which did not go well. He was chased away, and took revenge by turning into a demolitions master. However, he would later end up joining forces with Sly to reclaim his daughter from General Tsao, and officially joined the Cooper Gang once that was accomplished.<br /> <br /> *'''Sir Raleigh''' ([[Frog]]) - Wealthy, privileged, and living in luxury, Sir Raleigh nevertheless grew bored with his life. He tried piracy at one point, and found it to his liking. Becoming addicted to crime, Raleigh joined the Fiendish Five, establishing himself as Chief Machinist.<br /> <br /> === Sly 2: Band of Thieves ===<br /> <br /> '''The Klaww Gang'''<br /> <br /> *'''Arpeggio''' ([[Parrot]]) - Though he was a brilliant being, Arpeggio was dissatisfied. While attending a prestigious boarding school, he found himself to be physically infuriating: his tiny wings would not allow him to fly. Arpeggio turned to the works of the Italian masters of the Renaissance period, looking at their designs of flying machines in search of a way to make himself fly. He came into the Klaww Gang as mechanical expert, and serviced all the Clockwerk parts for use in the Klaww Gang's schemes. However, Arpeggio secretly planned to reassemble Clockwerk and merge with him, giving him not only the ability to fly, but making him immortal. He hired a young protégé, but she also had dreams of grandeur and betrayed him.<br /> <br /> *'''The Contessa''' ([[Black Widow Spider]]) - A prominent hypnotist and prison warden working for Interpol, the Contessa first appeared at Rajan's ball in India. She then captured Sly, Murray, and Carmelita at Rajan's temple, following Neyla's betrayal. Bentley pursues them to the Contessa's clinic in Prague, where he learns of her secret membership in the Klaww Gang. The Contessa was married to a wealthy aristocrat but he died soon afterwards, very likely poisoned by his wife. She opened part of her newly acquired estate as her clinic. The Contessa's plot: using hypnotism to cure criminals of their unlawful conditions, while in reality forcing them to reveal the locations of their loot and clearing the field of competition. To this end, she uses Clockwerk's eyes to mesmerize her enemies.<br /> <br /> *'''Constable Neyla''' ([[Coluded Leopard]]) - When Sly comes to steal the Clockwerk parts, he runs into Carmelita and her new partner, Constable Neyla. Neyla intentionally mentions the Klaww Gang in Sly's hearing range, to set him loose upon the criminals. She appears to be another love interest for Sly, until she betrays him to the Contessa at Rajan's spice temple. From that point, it seems that Neyla has her own agenda to fulfill, and is in truth a protégé of Arpeggio, only to turn on him as well, and merges with the Clockwerk parts to become Clock-la. In the end, Sly, Murray, Bentley and Carmelita work together to put an end to Neyla's evil schemes once and for all.<br /> <br /> *'''Dimitri''' ([[Marine Iguana]]) - Once a passionate artist, Dimitri's unique &quot;kinetic aesthetic&quot; didn't sit well with the art community. In rage, Dimitri took to forging old masterpieces, punishing the world for his dismissal. Dimitri set up a sleazy nightclub in Paris, where he funneled Rajan's illegal spice through the city in preparation for Arpeggio's master plan. He also had set up a counterfeit money printing press beneath the club, using the Clockwerk Tail Feathers as plates. After his defeat, he is senates to jail, before Sly busts him out there for, returning to crime as a member of Sly's team.<br /> <br /> *'''Jean Bison''' ([[Bison]]) - A prospector from the 1850's, Jean Bison was frozen alive in an avalanche he set off by accident. After 120 years in the cooler, global warming thawed him out. Jean Bison remained true to his time, seeking to tame the wild by damming every river and chopping down every tree. He joined the Klaww Gang to bankroll his war on nature, and attached the Clockwerk Lungs and Stomach to his three best trains: the Iron Horses. He also holds the talons that he keeps on his walking cane as a showpiece.<br /> <br /> *'''Rajan''' ([[tiger]]) - Growing up poor on the streets of Calcutta, Rajan started his life of crime early, selling black market spices (technically drugs, though not said) that cause the consumers to become uncontrollably enraged, as well as making them hypnosis-susceptable.

<p>Fangusu: /* Biography */</p> <hr /> <div>[[Image:S23685 ps2 14.jpg|thumb|right|A picture of Sly Cooper.]]<br /> '''Sly Cooper''' (known as '''Sly Raccoon''' in Europe) is the star character and anti-hero of three platform games developed by Sucker Punch Productions for the Sony PlayStation 2.<br /> <br /> While the game features characters that are considered 'furry' by the [[Furry_fandom|fandom]], it is unlikely that they were created with [[furries]] in mind.<br /> <br /> == Story ==<br /> <br /> Sly is a young [[raccoon]] who is descended from a long line of master thieves. He grew up an orphan after his father was killed by a gang known as the Fiendish Five. This gang also stole the Thievius Raccoonus, a book containing the Cooper family's thieving techniques. Sly's quest to recover his family's book is the basis for the first game.<br /> <br /> Sly's primary weapon in the games is his family's cane.<br /> <br /> Sly Cooper is aided in his adventures by his friends Bentley, a brainy [[turtle]], and Murray, a strong, muscular [[hippopotamus]].<br /> <br /> Sly and his friends make their home in Paris, but the nationality of the characters is never made clear in the games.<br /> <br /> The world in which Sly Cooper and his friends live appears to be inhabited only by anthropomorphic animals.<br /> <br /> Sly's archenemy is Clockwerk, a mysterious robotic [[owl]]. He is likely the only animal in the game that is sapient, but not anthropomorphic. Clockwerk is revealed to have been hunting Sly's family line for years, which led to his decision to replace his body with machinery. It is also revealed that Clockwerk spared his life in the attack on his family to prove that the Cooper Clan would be unable to be great thieves without the Thievius Raccoonus.<br /> <br /> In the first game, Clockwerk serves as the final boss, as well as the man &quot;pulling the strings&quot;.<br /> <br /> The second game focuses on a different gang, the Klaww Gang, who has stolen the pieces of Clockwerk's body that were left over after the first game to use in their own plans, and Sly's attempts to recover them.<br /> <br /> In both games, Cooper and his friends are pursued by Inspector Carmelita [[Fox]], a detective from Interpol. Although the two are bitter rivals, they team up on occasion to defeat common foes. Carmelita is also portrayed as a possible love interest for Sly.<br /> <br /> Sly Cooper and other characters from the games were also featured in a comic book published in 2004 by Gamepro Magazine to promote the release of '''Sly 2: Band of Thieves'''. Issue #2 was made in 2005 to promote '''Sly 3: Honor Among Thieves'''.<br /> <br /> The third game, '''Sly 3: Honor Among Thieves''', takes place about a year after '''Sly 2: Band of Thieves'''. It's the first in the series where Clockwerk isn't the main enemy.<br /> <br /> ==Biography==<br /> [[File:Thievius Racoonus.png|thumb]]<br /> Born into a long line of thieves, Sly was destined to inherit the archive of their techniques, the Thievius Raccoonus. However, Sly is robbed of his family and his inheritance when a ruthless gang of thieves raids his home and kills his family, along with stealing and dividing the Thievius Raccoonus. Sly winds up in an orphanage, where he meets his two best friends, Bentley the turtle and Murray the hippo. After forming their brotherhood, they set out to make a name for themselves. In doing so, they earn the attention of Inspector Carmelita Fox, whom Sly becomes rather attracted to.<br /> [[File:Band of Thieves.png|thumb]]<br /> After years of searching, Sly finds out where the Fiendish Five are and takes them down one by one. He learns about Clockwerk's relation to his family, and retrieves the Thievius Raccoonus. Afterwards, he tricks Carmelita with a kiss, and her reaction, though unnoticed by Sly, shows that she in turn cares for him.<br /> [[File:Honor Among Thieves.jpg]]<br /> Two years later, Sly and co. return to destroy the Clockwerk parts to prevent their use by evil. After surving harrowing challenges, they defeat the Klaww Gang. Meanwhile, Sly's feelings of friendship with his pals and attraction towards Carmelita grow. This adventure ends in tragedy, as Bentley is injured.<br /> <br /> A year later, Sly goes after the Cooper Vault, the location of his family's stolen fortune. Recruiting several new members to the team, Sly sets out to break into it. Along the way, Sly conflicts with the addition of Panda King to the group. Finally, druing a near fatal encounter with Dr. M's simian monster, Sly realizes how much Carmelita means to him. After the final battle with M, Sly is hit and then fakes amnesia, causing Carmelita to take him home with her.

Undaunted, he tricked out the wheelchair with bombs and heavy-duty sleep darts.<br /> <br /> *'''Murray'''- A [[hippo]] who Sly met at the orphanage, Murray is the team's muscle. Like Bentley, Murray was rather nervous about field work, but worked as the gang's getaway driver. Two years after the Fiendish Five, Murray had transformed into a mighty wrestler known as &quot;the Murray&quot;. Because he blamed himself for Bentley's injury, Murray attempted to find solace. However, he quickly returned to help out his buddies.<br /> <br /> *'''The Guru'''- An Australian [[Koala]] Aborigine and master of the mystic &quot;Dream Time&quot;, the Guru served as Murray's teacher. He later joined the gang, serving as mystic expert. The Guru's gear consists of a walking stick and Moon Stone, and he speaks in an odd language that only other characters can understand.<br /> <br /> *'''Penelope'''- A skilled pilot and tech expert, Penelope is a female version of Bentley except for the fact that she is a [[mouse]].

However, Clockwerk's spectre would return to haunt Sly in the form of his components, which were stolen by the Klaww Gang. <br /> <br /> *'''Muggshot the [[Bulldog]]''' - Born the runt of the litter, Muggshot was mocked and teased by everyone in the neighborhood. The only friends he could find were on the big screen, where he saw his first gangster. Inspired, Muggshot worked out for the rest of his childhood, turning into a gigantic mass of muscle. Following his theft of Tennessee Kid Cooper's section of the Thievius Raccoonus, he took off for Mesa City to establish himself as a gambling kingpin. However, Sly and the gang were able to defeat him, and he was dragged off to jail.

He came into the Klaww Gang as mechanical expert, and serviced all the Clockwerk parts for use in the Klaww Gang's schemes.

From that point, it seems that Neyla has her own agenda to fulfill, and is in truth a protégé of Arpeggio, only to turn on him as well, and merges with the Clockwerk parts to become Clock-la. In the end, Sly, Murray, Bentley and Carmelita work together to put an end to Neyla's evil schemes once and for all.<br /> <br /> *'''Dimitri''' ([[Marine Iguana]]) - Once a passionate artist, Dimitri's unique &quot;kinetic aesthetic&quot; didn't sit well with the art community.

<p>Fangusu: /* Biography */</p> <hr /> <div>[[Image:S23685 ps2 14.jpg|thumb|right|A picture of Sly Cooper.]]<br /> '''Sly Cooper''' (known as '''Sly Raccoon''' in Europe) is the star character and anti-hero of three platform games developed by Sucker Punch Productions for the Sony PlayStation 2.<br /> <br /> While the game features characters that are considered 'furry' by the [[Furry_fandom|fandom]], it is unlikely that they were created with [[furries]] in mind.<br /> <br /> == Story ==<br /> <br /> Sly is a young [[raccoon]] who is descended from a long line of master thieves. He grew up an orphan after his father was killed by a gang known as the Fiendish Five. This gang also stole the Thievius Raccoonus, a book containing the Cooper family's thieving techniques. Sly's quest to recover his family's book is the basis for the first game.<br /> <br /> Sly's primary weapon in the games is his family's cane.<br /> <br /> Sly Cooper is aided in his adventures by his friends Bentley, a brainy [[turtle]], and Murray, a strong, muscular [[hippopotamus]].<br /> <br /> Sly and his friends make their home in Paris, but the nationality of the characters is never made clear in the games.<br /> <br /> The world in which Sly Cooper and his friends live appears to be inhabited only by anthropomorphic animals.<br /> <br /> Sly's archenemy is Clockwerk, a mysterious robotic [[owl]]. He is likely the only animal in the game that is sapient, but not anthropomorphic. Clockwerk is revealed to have been hunting Sly's family line for years, which led to his decision to replace his body with machinery. It is also revealed that Clockwerk spared his life in the attack on his family to prove that the Cooper Clan would be unable to be great thieves without the Thievius Raccoonus.<br /> <br /> In the first game, Clockwerk serves as the final boss, as well as the man &quot;pulling the strings&quot;.<br /> <br /> The second game focuses on a different gang, the Klaww Gang, who has stolen the pieces of Clockwerk's body that were left over after the first game to use in their own plans, and Sly's attempts to recover them.<br /> <br /> In both games, Cooper and his friends are pursued by Inspector Carmelita [[Fox]], a detective from Interpol. Although the two are bitter rivals, they team up on occasion to defeat common foes. Carmelita is also portrayed as a possible love interest for Sly.<br /> <br /> Sly Cooper and other characters from the games were also featured in a comic book published in 2004 by Gamepro Magazine to promote the release of '''Sly 2: Band of Thieves'''. Issue #2 was made in 2005 to promote '''Sly 3: Honor Among Thieves'''.<br /> <br /> The third game, '''Sly 3: Honor Among Thieves''', takes place about a year after '''Sly 2: Band of Thieves'''. It's the first in the series where Clockwerk isn't the main enemy.<br /> <br /> ==Biography==<br /> [[File:Thievius Racoonus.png|thumb]]<br /> Born into a long line of thieves, Sly was destined to inherit the archive of their techniques, the Thievius Raccoonus. However, Sly is robbed of his family and his inheritance when a ruthless gang of thieves raids his home and kills his family, along with stealing and dividing the Thievius Raccoonus. Sly winds up in an orphanage, where he meets his two best friends, Bentley the turtle and Murray the hippo. After forming their brotherhood, they set out to make a name for themselves. In doing so, they earn the attention of Inspector Carmelita Fox, whom Sly becomes rather attracted to.<br /> <br /> After years of searching, Sly finds out where the Fiendish Five are and takes them down one by one. He learns about Clockwerk's relation to his family, and retrieves the Thievius Raccoonus. Afterwards, he tricks Carmelita with a kiss, and her reaction, though unnoticed by Sly, shows that she in turn cares for him.<br /> <br /> Two years later, Sly and co. return to destroy the Clockwerk parts to prevent their use by evil. After surving harrowing challenges, they defeat the Klaww Gang. Meanwhile, Sly's feelings of friendship with his pals and attraction towards Carmelita grow. This adventure ends in tragedy, as Bentley is injured.<br /> <br /> A year later, Sly goes after the Cooper Vault, the location of his family's stolen fortune. Recruiting several new members to the team, Sly sets out to break into it. Along the way, Sly conflicts with the addition of Panda King to the group. Finally, druing a near fatal encounter with Dr. M's simian monster, Sly realizes how much Carmelita means to him. After the final battle with M, Sly is hit and then fakes amnesia, causing Carmelita to take him home with her. In reality, Sly did it to grow closer to her.<br /> <br /> ==Allies==<br /> <br /> '''Cooper Gang'''<br /> <br /> *'''Bentley'''- A [[turtle]] who Sly met at the orphanage, Bentley is the brains of Sly's gang. Originally a timid computer expert, Bentley evolved into a confident demolitions expert. During the final battle with Clockwerk, Bentley received an injury that left him confined to a wheelchair. Undaunted, he tricked out the wheelchair with bombs and heavy-duty sleep darts.<br /> <br /> *'''Murray'''- A [[hippo]] who Sly met at the orphanage, Murray is the team's muscle. Like Bentley, Murray was rather nervous about field work, but worked as the gang's getaway driver. Two years after the Fiendish Five, Murray had transformed into a mighty wrestler known as &quot;the Murray&quot;. Because he blamed himself for Bentley's injury, Murray attempted to find solace. However, he quickly returned to help out his buddies.<br /> <br /> *'''The Guru'''- An Australian [[Koala]] Aborigine and master of the mystic &quot;Dream Time&quot;, the Guru served as Murray's teacher. He later joined the gang, serving as mystic expert. The Guru's gear consists of a walking stick and Moon Stone, and he speaks in an odd language that only other characters can understand.<br /> <br /> *'''Penelope'''- A skilled pilot and tech expert, Penelope is a female version of Bentley except for the fact that she is a [[mouse]]. Under the alias of the &quot;Black Baron&quot;, Penelope was a top pilot in Holland whom the gang recruited for battling Dr. M. She and Bentley later fall in love like Sly and Carmelita.<br /> <br /> *'''[[Giant Panda|Panda]] King'''- A former member of the Fiendish Five, Panda King now joins the Cooper Gang as their demolitions expert on the condition that they help him save his daughter, Jing King, from the evil General Tsao.<br /> <br /> *'''Dimitri''' ([[Marine Iguana]])- A former KLAWW gang member, Dimitri now joins the gang as their frogman on the count that they help him find his grandfather's diving gear and stolen treasure from pirates. <br /> <br /> '''Interpol'''<br /> <br /> *'''Inspector Carmelita Fox'''- An Interpol inspector, Carmelita has devoted years of her life to pursuing Sly Cooper and his cohorts. Equipped with an electrical pistol, Carmelita is obsessive in her hunting of Sly.<br /> <br /> ==Enemies==<br /> <br /> === Sly Cooper and the Thievius Raccoonus ===<br /> <br /> '''The Fiendish Five'''<br /> <br /> *'''Clockwerk''' - An [[owl]] who some time in the distant past developed a hatred for the Cooper clan. Clockwerk founded the Fiendish Five, and personally wiped out Sly's parents. The giant bird has replaced his body with robotic parts to supplement his hatred of the Cooper clan, which kept him alive. Clockwerk then confronted Sly in battle, and Sly beat him by destroying his head. However, Clockwerk's spectre would return to haunt Sly in the form of his components, which were stolen by the Klaww Gang. <br /> <br /> *'''Muggshot the [[Bulldog]]''' - Born the runt of the litter, Muggshot was mocked and teased by everyone in the neighborhood. The only friends he could find were on the big screen, where he saw his first gangster. Inspired, Muggshot worked out for the rest of his childhood, turning into a gigantic mass of muscle. Following his theft of Tennessee Kid Cooper's section of the Thievius Raccoonus, he took off for Mesa City to establish himself as a gambling kingpin. However, Sly and the gang were able to defeat him, and he was dragged off to jail. He later reappears in Holland at the ACES competition, fails in his attempt to destroy the Cooper Gang's plane and hangar, and is then busted by Inspector Carmelita.<br /> <br /> *'''Mz. Ruby''' ([[Alligator]]) - As the descendant of a family of voodoo mystics, Mz. Ruby was feared as a child. Learning to summon the undead, Mz. Ruby turned to crime. After she stole Slytankhamen's section of the Thievius Raccoonus, she headed into the Haitian jungle. She established a massive voodoo facility, creating an army of voodoo zombies. However, Sly was able to penetrate her Skull Temple, and beat her in a voodoo face off. Mz. Ruby's zombie production (illegal worldwide) earned her a life sentence in jail.<br /> <br /> *'''[[Giant Panda|Panda]] King''' - A poor child growing up on the streets of China, the Panda King was fascinated with fireworks. He spent 10 years learning the art, then attempted to present his works to the noblemen of China, which did not go well. He was chased away, and took revenge by turning into a demolitions master. However, he would later end up joining forces with Sly to reclaim his daughter from General Tsao, and officially joined the Cooper Gang once that was accomplished.<br /> <br /> *'''Sir Raleigh''' ([[Frog]]) - Wealthy, privileged, and living in luxury, Sir Raleigh nevertheless grew bored with his life. He tried piracy at one point, and found it to his liking. Becoming addicted to crime, Raleigh joined the Fiendish Five, establishing himself as Chief Machinist.<br /> <br /> === Sly 2: Band of Thieves ===<br /> <br /> '''The Klaww Gang'''<br /> <br /> *'''Arpeggio''' ([[Parrot]]) - Though he was a brilliant being, Arpeggio was dissatisfied. While attending a prestigious boarding school, he found himself to be physically infuriating: his tiny wings would not allow him to fly. Arpeggio turned to the works of the Italian masters of the Renaissance period, looking at their designs of flying machines in search of a way to make himself fly. He came into the Klaww Gang as mechanical expert, and serviced all the Clockwerk parts for use in the Klaww Gang's schemes. However, Arpeggio secretly planned to reassemble Clockwerk and merge with him, giving him not only the ability to fly, but making him immortal. He hired a young protégé, but she also had dreams of grandeur and betrayed him.<br /> <br /> *'''The Contessa''' ([[Black Widow Spider]]) - A prominent hypnotist and prison warden working for Interpol, the Contessa first appeared at Rajan's ball in India. She then captured Sly, Murray, and Carmelita at Rajan's temple, following Neyla's betrayal. Bentley pursues them to the Contessa's clinic in Prague, where he learns of her secret membership in the Klaww Gang. The Contessa was married to a wealthy aristocrat but he died soon afterwards, very likely poisoned by his wife. She opened part of her newly acquired estate as her clinic. The Contessa's plot: using hypnotism to cure criminals of their unlawful conditions, while in reality forcing them to reveal the locations of their loot and clearing the field of competition. To this end, she uses Clockwerk's eyes to mesmerize her enemies.<br /> <br /> *'''Constable Neyla''' ([[Coluded Leopard]]) - When Sly comes to steal the Clockwerk parts, he runs into Carmelita and her new partner, Constable Neyla. Neyla intentionally mentions the Klaww Gang in Sly's hearing range, to set him loose upon the criminals. She appears to be another love interest for Sly, until she betrays him to the Contessa at Rajan's spice temple. From that point, it seems that Neyla has her own agenda to fulfill, and is in truth a protégé of Arpeggio, only to turn on him as well, and merges with the Clockwerk parts to become Clock-la. In the end, Sly, Murray, Bentley and Carmelita work together to put an end to Neyla's evil schemes once and for all.<br /> <br /> *'''Dimitri''' ([[Marine Iguana]]) - Once a passionate artist, Dimitri's unique &quot;kinetic aesthetic&quot; didn't sit well with the art community. In rage, Dimitri took to forging old masterpieces, punishing the world for his dismissal. Dimitri set up a sleazy nightclub in Paris, where he funneled Rajan's illegal spice through the city in preparation for Arpeggio's master plan.

The group consists of three singing chipmunks: '''Alvin''', the mischievous troublemaker, who quickly became the star of the group, '''Simon''', the tall bespectacled intellectual, and '''Theodore''', the chubby, impressionable sweetheart. The trio is &quot;managed&quot; by their [[human]] &quot;father&quot; and confidant, David Seville. In reality, David Seville was Ross Bagdasarian's stage name, and the Chipmunks themselves are named after the executives of their original record label, Liberty Records: Alvin Bennett (the president), Simon Waronker (the founder and owner), and Theodore Keep (the chief engineer).<br /> [[File:Chipmunks first three albums.jpg|thumb|On the covers of the first three albums (left), the chipmunks looked a lot more realistic than they do now. In 1961 (right), when they were reissued, the chipmunks were given their '''The Alvin Show''' incarnation.]]<br /> [[File:Original Alvin Simon and Theodore.jpg|thumb|From 1958 to 1960, in the Chipmunks' early days, Alvin, Simon, and Theodore looked a lot more realisitc than they do now.

They are the size of normal chipmunks and like their original 1958 design, they do not wear shoes and they have visible tails, and Alvin once again does not have his trademark red cap (Except at the end of the 2007 film).]]<br /> Audiences often assume the characters started as cartoons and branched out into music, but that is the opposite of how they began. After first being brought to life in Bagdasarian's 1950s novelty recordings under the name '''David Seville and the Chipmunks''', the characters were an unprecedented success, and the singing Chipmunks and their manager were given life in several animated cartoon series and motion pictures, including one that was released during Christmas 2007.<br /> [[File:Chipmunks 2007 hip hop.jpg|thumb|The Chipmunks with a hip-hop look from the 2007 film.]] <br /> The voices of the group were all performed by Bagdasarian, who sped up the playback to create the higher pitched, squeaky voices. This process was not entirely new; Bagdasarian had also used it for a previous novelty song project, &quot;The Witch Doctor&quot;, but it was so unusual and well executed it earned the &quot;trio&quot; two Grammy Awards for engineering. Although the characters were fictional, they did release a long line of &quot;real&quot; albums and singles, with &quot;The Chipmunk Song (Christmas Don't Be Late)&quot; becoming a number-one hit single in the United States. After his death in 1972, the voices of the Chipmunks were subsequently recorded by his son, Ross Bagdasarian, Jr., and his wife, Janice Karman, in all subsequent incarnations to date.<br /> <br /> ==Characters==<br /> ===Alvin Seville===<br /> [[File:Alvin Seville.jpg|thumb|Alvin's current depiction]]<br /> '''Alvin''': The middle chipmunk who's responsible for all of the trouble, as the term “Look before you leap” does not apply to him. Alvin is an emotional roller coaster and leader of the group. His enthusiasm is boundless. He is somewhat greedy and selfish, but loves his brothers. He is a fearless chipmunk. He'll even stick up for his little brother Theodore (best shown in the teaser trailer for the 2007 film, where Dave suspects Theodore leaving behind a dropping, and Simon passes it off as a raisin, even going as far as to eat it). Alvin's favorite things are his harmonica and his cap, which he always wears (except in the 2007 live-action/animated film based on the cartoon). He doesn't like anybody touching his cap, and he has no trouble in saying so, “Don't...touch...the cap!”. His signature color is red. He doesn't follow anybody's rules, not even his own. From 1958 to 1972, he was voiced by Ross Bagdasarian, and all recordings from 1972 to the present, he is voiced by Ross Bagdasarian, Jr.<br /> <br /> ===Simon Seville===<br /> [[File:Simon Seville.jpg|thumb|Simon's current depiction]]<br /> '''Simon''': Being the tallest and oldest and having an IQ just north of Albert Einstein, Simon possesses a very dry sense of humor as well as a keen wit. His chess master mind allows him to anticipate what he calls Alvin's &quot;harebrained schemes&quot; and devise a solution that is inevitably required. Although Simon loves Alvin, Simon secretly worries about the fact that they share the same gene pool. However, Simon will drop whatever he's doing to help his brothers whenever they need him. Simon's signature color is blue. In all recordings from 1958 to 1972, he was voiced by Ross Bagdasarian, and in all recordings from 1972 onward, he is voiced by Ross Bagdasarian, Jr.<br /> <br /> ===Theodore Seville===<br /> [[File:Theodore Seville.jpg|thumb|Theodore's current depiction]]<br /> '''Theodore''': Being the youngest, Theodore is the child of innocence. He is shy, loving, sensitive, gullible, trusting and naive. Theodore often holds the swing vote between his two brothers' choices of action. Simon appeals to Theodore's better nature, while Alvin goes straight to bribery, often with sweets or other foods, as Theodore is also known for his sizable appetite. His sweet nature usually makes him an easy target for bullies, but then they'll have to answer to his big brothers Alvin and Simon. Little known facts are that Theodore is afraid of heights, hates roller coasters, and sometimes carries his teddy bear with him. Theodore's signature color is green and he was voiced by Ross Bagdasarian from 1958 to 1972, and by Janice Karman from 1972 to the present.<br /> <br /> ===David &quot;Dave&quot; Seville===<br /> [[File:Dave Seville.jpg|thumb|Dave's current depiction]]<br /> '''David &quot;Dave&quot; Seville''': Like any other single parent trying to raise three kids, Dave has his patience tested on a daily basis, mostly by Alvin's antics. Not only does he juggle his professional life as the songwriter for the musical trio, but he is also the Chipmunks' father and confidant. While Dave struggles to remain calm and objective, Alvin often pushes him over the edge, reducing Dave to his trademark yell of &quot;ALVIN!!!&quot; One instance of this is in the song &quot;Alvin's Harmonica&quot;, from ''[[The Alvin Show]]''. Another instance of this is in the teaser trailer for the 2007 film based on the cartoon when Alvin won't stop singing when his brothers already have. He was voiced by Ross Bagdasarian from 1958 to 1972, and by Ross Bagdasarian, Jr. from 1980 to the present.<br /> <br /> == TV series ==<br /> [[File:Cartoon_All-Stars.jpg|right|thumb|'''Cartoon All-Stars To The Rescue''' is a crossover fiction film which involved the Chipmunks along with [[Garfield]], [[Bugs Bunny]], and other characters.]]<br /> [[File:The Alvin Show Title Card.jpg|left|thumb|The Alvin Show]]<br /> From 1983 to 1990, 101 episodes of a TV series titled ''Alvin and the Chipmunks'' starring the above characters were produced, initially (1983-1987) by Bagdasarian Productions in association with Ruby-Spears Productions, and from 1988-1990 (renamed to simply ''The Chipmunks'') by [[DIC Entertainment]].

The group consists of three singing chipmunks: '''Alvin''', the mischievous troublemaker, who quickly became the star of the group, '''Simon''', the tall bespectacled intellectual, and '''Theodore''', the chubby, impressionable sweetheart. The trio is &quot;managed&quot; by their [[human]] &quot;father&quot; and confidant, David Seville. In reality, David Seville was Ross Bagdasarian's stage name, and the Chipmunks themselves are named after the executives of their original record label, Liberty Records: Alvin Bennett (the president), Simon Waronker (the founder and owner), and Theodore Keep (the chief engineer).<br /> [[File:Chipmunks first three albums.jpg|thumb|On the covers of the first three albums (left), the chipmunks looked a lot more realistic than they do now.

They are portrayed like this in '''Frankenstein''' and '''The Wolfman''' as well.]]<br /> Audiences often assume the characters started as cartoons and branched out into music, but that is the opposite of how they began. After first being brought to life in Bagdasarian's 1950s novelty recordings under the name '''David Seville and the Chipmunks''', the characters were an unprecedented success, and the singing Chipmunks and their manager were given life in several animated cartoon series and motion pictures, including one that was released during Christmas 2007.<br /> [[File:Chipmunks 2007 hip hop.jpg|thumb|The Chipmunks with a hip-hop look from the 2007 film.]] <br /> The voices of the group were all performed by Bagdasarian, who sped up the playback to create the higher pitched, squeaky voices. This process was not entirely new; Bagdasarian had also used it for a previous novelty song project, &quot;The Witch Doctor&quot;, but it was so unusual and well executed it earned the &quot;trio&quot; two Grammy Awards for engineering. Although the characters were fictional, they did release a long line of &quot;real&quot; albums and singles, with &quot;The Chipmunk Song (Christmas Don't Be Late)&quot; becoming a number-one hit single in the United States. After his death in 1972, the voices of the Chipmunks were subsequently recorded by his son, Ross Bagdasarian, Jr., and his wife, Janice Karman, in all subsequent incarnations to date.<br /> <br /> ==Characters==<br /> ===Alvin Seville===<br /> [[File:Alvin Seville.jpg|thumb|Alvin's current depiction]]<br /> '''Alvin''': The middle chipmunk who's responsible for all of the trouble, as the term “Look before you leap” does not apply to him. Alvin is an emotional roller coaster and leader of the group. His enthusiasm is boundless. He is somewhat greedy and selfish, but loves his brothers. He is a fearless chipmunk. He'll even stick up for his little brother Theodore (best shown in the teaser trailer for the 2007 film, where Dave suspects Theodore leaving behind a dropping, and Simon passes it off as a raisin, even going as far as to eat it). Alvin's favorite things are his harmonica and his cap, which he always wears (except in the 2007 live-action/animated film based on the cartoon). He doesn't like anybody touching his cap, and he has no trouble in saying so, “Don't...touch...the cap!”. His signature color is red. He doesn't follow anybody's rules, not even his own. From 1958 to 1972, he was voiced by Ross Bagdasarian, and all recordings from 1972 to the present, he is voiced by Ross Bagdasarian, Jr.<br /> <br /> ===Simon Seville===<br /> [[File:Simon Seville.jpg|thumb|Simon's current depiction]]<br /> '''Simon''': Being the tallest and oldest and having an IQ just north of Albert Einstein, Simon possesses a very dry sense of humor as well as a keen wit. His chess master mind allows him to anticipate what he calls Alvin's &quot;harebrained schemes&quot; and devise a solution that is inevitably required. Although Simon loves Alvin, Simon secretly worries about the fact that they share the same gene pool. However, Simon will drop whatever he's doing to help his brothers whenever they need him. Simon's signature color is blue. In all recordings from 1958 to 1972, he was voiced by Ross Bagdasarian, and in all recordings from 1972 onward, he is voiced by Ross Bagdasarian, Jr.<br /> <br /> ===Theodore Seville===<br /> [[File:Theodore Seville.jpg|thumb|Theodore's current depiction]]<br /> '''Theodore''': Being the youngest, Theodore is the child of innocence. He is shy, loving, sensitive, gullible, trusting and naive. Theodore often holds the swing vote between his two brothers' choices of action. Simon appeals to Theodore's better nature, while Alvin goes straight to bribery, often with sweets or other foods, as Theodore is also known for his sizable appetite. His sweet nature usually makes him an easy target for bullies, but then they'll have to answer to his big brothers Alvin and Simon. Little known facts are that Theodore is afraid of heights, hates roller coasters, and sometimes carries his teddy bear with him. Theodore's signature color is green and he was voiced by Ross Bagdasarian from 1958 to 1972, and by Janice Karman from 1972 to the present.<br /> <br /> ===David &quot;Dave&quot; Seville===<br /> [[File:Dave Seville.jpg|thumb|Dave's current depiction]]<br /> '''David &quot;Dave&quot; Seville''': Like any other single parent trying to raise three kids, Dave has his patience tested on a daily basis, mostly by Alvin's antics. Not only does he juggle his professional life as the songwriter for the musical trio, but he is also the Chipmunks' father and confidant. While Dave struggles to remain calm and objective, Alvin often pushes him over the edge, reducing Dave to his trademark yell of &quot;ALVIN!!!&quot; One instance of this is in the song &quot;Alvin's Harmonica&quot;, from ''[[The Alvin Show]]''. Another instance of this is in the teaser trailer for the 2007 film based on the cartoon when Alvin won't stop singing when his brothers already have. He was voiced by Ross Bagdasarian from 1958 to 1972, and by Ross Bagdasarian, Jr. from 1980 to the present.<br /> <br /> == TV series ==<br /> [[File:Cartoon_All-Stars.jpg|right|thumb|'''Cartoon All-Stars To The Rescue''' is a crossover fiction film which involved the Chipmunks along with [[Garfield]], [[Bugs Bunny]], and other characters.]]<br /> [[File:The Alvin Show Title Card.jpg|left|thumb|The Alvin Show]]<br /> From 1983 to 1990, 101 episodes of a TV series titled ''Alvin and the Chipmunks'' starring the above characters were produced, initially (1983-1987) by Bagdasarian Productions in association with Ruby-Spears Productions, and from 1988-1990 (renamed to simply ''The Chipmunks'') by [[DIC Entertainment]].

The group consists of three singing chipmunks: '''Alvin''', the mischievous troublemaker, who quickly became the star of the group, '''Simon''', the tall bespectacled intellectual, and '''Theodore''', the chubby, impressionable sweetheart. The trio is &quot;managed&quot; by their [[human]] &quot;father&quot; and confidant, David Seville. In reality, David Seville was Ross Bagdasarian's stage name, and the Chipmunks themselves are named after the executives of their original record label, Liberty Records: Alvin Bennett (the president), Simon Waronker (the founder and owner), and Theodore Keep (the chief engineer).<br /> [[File:Chipmunks first three albums.jpg|thumb|On the covers of the first three albums (left), the chipmunks looked a lot more realistic than they do now. In 1961 (right), when they were reissued, the chipmunks were given their '''The Alvin Show''' incarnation.]]<br /> [[File:Chipmunks 1983-2000.jpg|thumb|When the 1983 TV series first debuted, the chipmunks were again redesigned. They are portrayed like this in '''Frankenstein''' and '''The Wolfman''' as well.]]<br /> Audiences often assume the characters started as cartoons and branched out into music, but that is the opposite of how they began. After first being brought to life in Bagdasarian's 1950s novelty recordings under the name '''David Seville and the Chipmunks''', the characters were an unprecedented success, and the singing Chipmunks and their manager were given life in several animated cartoon series and motion pictures, including one that was released during Christmas 2007.<br /> [[File:The Alvin Show Album.jpg|thumb|The soundtrack of '''The Alvin Show''' marked a redesign of the Chipmunks and David Seville.]]<br /> [[File:Chipmunks 2007 hip hop.jpg|thumb|The Chipmunks with a hip-hop look from the 2007 film.]] <br /> The voices of the group were all performed by Bagdasarian, who sped up the playback to create the higher pitched, squeaky voices. This process was not entirely new; Bagdasarian had also used it for a previous novelty song project, &quot;The Witch Doctor&quot;, but it was so unusual and well executed it earned the &quot;trio&quot; two Grammy Awards for engineering. Although the characters were fictional, they did release a long line of &quot;real&quot; albums and singles, with &quot;The Chipmunk Song (Christmas Don't Be Late)&quot; becoming a number-one hit single in the United States. After his death in 1972, the voices of the Chipmunks were subsequently recorded by his son, Ross Bagdasarian, Jr., and his wife, Janice Karman, in all subsequent incarnations to date.<br /> <br /> ==Characters==<br /> ===Alvin Seville===<br /> [[File:Alvin Seville.jpg|thumb|Alvin's current depiction]]<br /> '''Alvin''': The middle chipmunk who's responsible for all of the trouble, as the term “Look before you leap” does not apply to him. Alvin is an emotional roller coaster and leader of the group. His enthusiasm is boundless. He is somewhat greedy and selfish, but loves his brothers. He is a fearless chipmunk. He'll even stick up for his little brother Theodore (best shown in the teaser trailer for the 2007 film, where Dave suspects Theodore leaving behind a dropping, and Simon passes it off as a raisin, even going as far as to eat it). Alvin's favorite things are his harmonica and his cap, which he always wears (except in the 2007 live-action/animated film based on the cartoon). He doesn't like anybody touching his cap, and he has no trouble in saying so, “Don't...touch...the cap!”. His signature color is red. He doesn't follow anybody's rules, not even his own. From 1958 to 1972, he was voiced by Ross Bagdasarian, and all recordings from 1972 to the present, he is voiced by Ross Bagdasarian, Jr.<br /> <br /> ===Simon Seville===<br /> [[File:Simon Seville.jpg|thumb|Simon's current depiction]]<br /> '''Simon''': Being the tallest and oldest and having an IQ just north of Albert Einstein, Simon possesses a very dry sense of humor as well as a keen wit. His chess master mind allows him to anticipate what he calls Alvin's &quot;harebrained schemes&quot; and devise a solution that is inevitably required. Although Simon loves Alvin, Simon secretly worries about the fact that they share the same gene pool. However, Simon will drop whatever he's doing to help his brothers whenever they need him. Simon's signature color is blue. In all recordings from 1958 to 1972, he was voiced by Ross Bagdasarian, and in all recordings from 1972 onward, he is voiced by Ross Bagdasarian, Jr.<br /> <br /> ===Theodore Seville===<br /> [[File:Theodore Seville.jpg|thumb|Theodore's current depiction]]<br /> '''Theodore''': Being the youngest, Theodore is the child of innocence. He is shy, loving, sensitive, gullible, trusting and naive. Theodore often holds the swing vote between his two brothers' choices of action. Simon appeals to Theodore's better nature, while Alvin goes straight to bribery, often with sweets or other foods, as Theodore is also known for his sizable appetite. His sweet nature usually makes him an easy target for bullies, but then they'll have to answer to his big brothers Alvin and Simon. Little known facts are that Theodore is afraid of heights, hates roller coasters, and sometimes carries his teddy bear with him. Theodore's signature color is green and he was voiced by Ross Bagdasarian from 1958 to 1972, and by Janice Karman from 1972 to the present.<br /> <br /> ===David &quot;Dave&quot; Seville===<br /> [[File:Dave Seville.jpg|thumb|Dave's current depiction]]<br /> '''David &quot;Dave&quot; Seville''': Like any other single parent trying to raise three kids, Dave has his patience tested on a daily basis, mostly by Alvin's antics. Not only does he juggle his professional life as the songwriter for the musical trio, but he is also the Chipmunks' father and confidant. While Dave struggles to remain calm and objective, Alvin often pushes him over the edge, reducing Dave to his trademark yell of &quot;ALVIN!!!&quot; One instance of this is in the song &quot;Alvin's Harmonica&quot;, from ''[[The Alvin Show]]''. Another instance of this is in the teaser trailer for the 2007 film based on the cartoon when Alvin won't stop singing when his brothers already have.

The group consists of three singing chipmunks: '''Alvin''', the mischievous troublemaker, who quickly became the star of the group, '''Simon''', the tall bespectacled intellectual, and '''Theodore''', the chubby, impressionable sweetheart. The trio is &quot;managed&quot; by their [[human]] &quot;father&quot; and confidant, David Seville. In reality, David Seville was Ross Bagdasarian's stage name, and the Chipmunks themselves are named after the executives of their original record label, Liberty Records: Alvin Bennett (the president), Simon Waronker (the founder and owner), and Theodore Keep (the chief engineer).<br /> [[File:Chipmunks first three albums.jpg|thumb|On the covers of the first three albums (left), the chipmunks looked a lot more realistic than they do now.

This process was not entirely new; Bagdasarian had also used it for a previous novelty song project, &quot;The Witch Doctor&quot;, but it was so unusual and well executed it earned the &quot;trio&quot; two Grammy Awards for engineering. Although the characters were fictional, they did release a long line of &quot;real&quot; albums and singles, with &quot;The Chipmunk Song (Christmas Don't Be Late)&quot; becoming a number-one hit single in the United States. After his death in 1972, the voices of the Chipmunks were subsequently recorded by his son, Ross Bagdasarian, Jr., and his wife, Janice Karman, in all subsequent incarnations to date.<br /> <br /> ==Characters==<br /> ===Alvin Seville===<br /> [[File:Alvin Seville.jpg|thumb|Alvin's current depiction]]<br /> '''Alvin''': The middle chipmunk who's responsible for all of the trouble, as the term “Look before you leap” does not apply to him. Alvin is an emotional roller coaster and leader of the group. His enthusiasm is boundless. He is somewhat greedy and selfish, but loves his brothers. He is a fearless chipmunk. He'll even stick up for his little brother Theodore (best shown in the teaser trailer for the 2007 film, where Dave suspects Theodore leaving behind a dropping, and Simon passes it off as a raisin, even going as far as to eat it). Alvin's favorite things are his harmonica and his cap, which he always wears (except in the 2007 live-action/animated film based on the cartoon). He doesn't like anybody touching his cap, and he has no trouble in saying so, “Don't...touch...the cap!”. His signature color is red. He doesn't follow anybody's rules, not even his own. From 1958 to 1972, he was voiced by Ross Bagdasarian, and all recordings from 1972 to the present, he is voiced by Ross Bagdasarian, Jr.<br /> <br /> ===Simon Seville===<br /> [[File:Simon Seville.jpg|thumb|Simon's current depiction]]<br /> '''Simon''': Being the tallest and oldest and having an IQ just north of Albert Einstein, Simon possesses a very dry sense of humor as well as a keen wit. His chess master mind allows him to anticipate what he calls Alvin's &quot;harebrained schemes&quot; and devise a solution that is inevitably required. Although Simon loves Alvin, Simon secretly worries about the fact that they share the same gene pool. However, Simon will drop whatever he's doing to help his brothers whenever they need him. Simon's signature color is blue. In all recordings from 1958 to 1972, he was voiced by Ross Bagdasarian, and in all recordings from 1972 onward, he is voiced by Ross Bagdasarian, Jr.<br /> <br /> ===Theodore Seville===<br /> [[File:Theodore Seville.jpg|thumb|Theodore's current depiction]]<br /> '''Theodore''': Being the youngest, Theodore is the child of innocence. He is shy, loving, sensitive, gullible, trusting and naive. Theodore often holds the swing vote between his two brothers' choices of action. Simon appeals to Theodore's better nature, while Alvin goes straight to bribery, often with sweets or other foods, as Theodore is also known for his sizable appetite. His sweet nature usually makes him an easy target for bullies, but then they'll have to answer to his big brothers Alvin and Simon. Little known facts are that Theodore is afraid of heights, hates roller coasters, and sometimes carries his teddy bear with him. Theodore's signature color is green and he was voiced by Ross Bagdasarian from 1958 to 1972, and by Janice Karman from 1972 to the present.<br /> <br /> ===David &quot;Dave&quot; Seville===<br /> [[File:Dave Seville.jpg|thumb|Dave's current depiction]]<br /> '''David &quot;Dave&quot; Seville''': Like any other single parent trying to raise three kids, Dave has his patience tested on a daily basis, mostly by Alvin's antics. Not only does he juggle his professional life as the songwriter for the musical trio, but he is also the Chipmunks' father and confidant. While Dave struggles to remain calm and objective, Alvin often pushes him over the edge, reducing Dave to his trademark yell of &quot;ALVIN!!!&quot; One instance of this is in the song &quot;Alvin's Harmonica&quot;, from ''[[The Alvin Show]]''. Another instance of this is in the teaser trailer for the 2007 film based on the cartoon when Alvin won't stop singing when his brothers already have. He was voiced by Ross Bagdasarian from 1958 to 1972, and by Ross Bagdasarian, Jr. from 1980 to the present.<br /> <br /> == TV series ==<br /> [[File:The Alvin Show Title Card.jpg|thumb|The Alvin Show]]<br /> From 1983 to 1990, 101 episodes of a TV series titled ''Alvin and the Chipmunks'' starring the above characters were produced, initially (1983-1987) by Bagdasarian Productions in association with Ruby-Spears Productions, and from 1988-1990 (renamed to simply ''The Chipmunks'') by [[DIC Entertainment]]. The show originally ran on NBC, and re-runs were aired during the late 1990s and the early 2000s on [[Nickelodeon]] and [[Cartoon Network]]. In 1990, Alvin, Simon, and Theodore also appeared in the animated anti-drug campaign TV movie ''Cartoon All-Stars to the rescue''.<br /> <br /> ==Movies==<br /> [[File:Chipmunkadventure1987.jpg|thumb|The Chipmunk Adventure]]<br /> [[File:Cartoon_All-Stars.jpg|thumb|'''Cartoon All-Stars To The Rescie''' is a crossover fiction film which involved the Chipmunks along with [[Garfield]], [[Bugs Bunny]], and other characters.]]<br /> [[File:Alvin_and_the_chipmunks_meet_frankenstein_vhs_cover.jpg|thumb|Alvin and the Chipmunks meet Frankenstein]]<br /> [[File:Alvin_and_the_chipmunks_meet_the_wolfman_vhs_cover.jpg|thumb|Alvin and the Chipmunks meet the Wolfman]]<br /> [[File:Mini munks.jpg|thumb|Little Alvin and the Mini Munks]]<br /> [[File:Alvin_and_the_Chipmunks2007.jpg|thumb|Alvin and the Chipmunks, the 2007 film]]<br /> [[File:Squekquel.jpg|thumb|The upcoming sequel to the 2007 film.]]<br /> The series spawned the animated feature film ''The Chipmunk adventure'', produced by The Samuel Goldwyn Company and released to theaters in 1987.

Theodore's signature color is green and he was voiced by Ross Bagdasarian from 1958 to 1972, and by Janice Karman from 1972 to the present.<br /> <br /> ===David &quot;Dave&quot; Seville===<br /> [[File:Dave Seville.jpg|thumb|Dave's current depiction]]<br /> '''David &quot;Dave&quot; Seville''': Like any other single parent trying to raise three kids, Dave has his patience tested on a daily basis, mostly by Alvin's antics. Not only does he juggle his professional life as the songwriter for the musical trio, but he is also the Chipmunks' father and confidant. While Dave struggles to remain calm and objective, Alvin often pushes him over the edge, reducing Dave to his trademark yell of &quot;ALVIN!!!&quot; One instance of this is in the song &quot;Alvin's Harmonica&quot;, from ''[[The Alvin Show]]''. Another instance of this is in the teaser trailer for the 2007 film based on the cartoon when Alvin won't stop singing when his brothers already have. He was voiced by Ross Bagdasarian from 1958 to 1972, and by Ross Bagdasarian, Jr. from 1980 to the present.<br /> <br /> == TV series ==<br /> [[File:The Alvin Show Title Card.jpg|thumb|The Alvin Show]]<br /> From 1983 to 1990, 101 episodes of a TV series titled ''Alvin and the Chipmunks'' starring the above characters were produced, initially (1983-1987) by Bagdasarian Productions in association with Ruby-Spears Productions, and from 1988-1990 (renamed to simply ''The Chipmunks'') by [[DIC Entertainment]].
