Sly Cooper

Sly is an anthropomorphic raccoon whose ancestors were famous thieves in all eras. When Slau was 8 years old, his parents were killed by the Fiendish Five grouping, and the book about the thieves' techniques of his ancestors was stolen. Sly enters the shelter, where he meets the turtle Bentley and the hippo Murray, with whom he forms a gang of thieves. ^[2]

Sly is very agile and agile, he is able to climb pipes, cornices, ropes, etc., as well as using a cane with a hook to use irregularities in the walls. In addition, he is able to use various devices, such as hang-gliders, smoke bombs, jet boots, alarm clocks, etc., in order to penetrate somewhere unnoticed or get rid of the pursuit. Mastering the techniques of his ancestors, Sly acquires various abilities, such as slowing down time, invisibility, stronger attacks, and others. Using his cane with a hook, Sly can steal money and other objects from enemies without being noticed.

Nevertheless, Sly remains faithful to his friends, placing them above all wealth.
