"WARNING!" |
Sparky Fritz is one of the seven main characters of the series. He's introduced as a sporty yet reliable husky attending Hachiko High School when an apawcalypse occurs.
Appurrance[]
Sparky appears as a gray dog with dark gray hair and lighter gray paws, chest, tail, inner ears and eyebrows. His ears are pointy and stand upright and his tail is large and fluffy. He has thick blocky eyebrows and orange and blue eyes.
Purrsonality[]
Sparky is introduced as an optimistic husky, interested in staving off the apocalypse and saving as many other students as possible. Though he has strength and size on his side, he refrains from using it against others unless absolutely necessary. This is what allows others to take advantage of him, as Patches does in various bad endings. Sparky turns a new leaf briefly after regaining control over his body in Purrgatory Furever. He steals Coco's wand and tracks down Ginger Claret in an attempt to get revenge by banishing her. He is convinced otherwise by Olive, after which he returns to giving others the benefit of the doubt. He is however, more easily triggered to revenge as seen in Patches' Infurno when Patches sabotages the baseball and injures Sparky, causing him to retaliate.
Purrfect Apawcalypse/Purrfect Apawcalypse: Love at Furst Bite[]
Sparky is found in the gym of the school being attacked by a cat demon. He had been trying to fight the demons off all day while his fellow classmates were picked off one by one. He breaks the pipes by the basement, believing the water would ward off the demons. Instead, it destroys Coco's magic circle.
Purrfect Apawcalypse: Purrgatory Furever[]
Sparky appears in the kitchen, exhausted and sleepless because of Ginger possessing him for Patches. After he found out that it was because of Ginger, he decides to banish her with Coco's wand, ending up Olive stopping him.
Purrfect Apawcalypse: Patches' Infurno[]
Sparky, along with his friends, helps Coco host the Hachiko High and Kemono Woods Communal School Day, where cats and dogs are supposed to prove they can get along. He's set to host the gym class with Ginger until she runs off because she's having trouble holding the dogs together with her magic.
Sparky encourages mixing cats and dogs between teams, and tells Rover to be nice when Rover at first doesn't want to interact with the "enemy" ( Patches in Angel's body ). He is very friendly and affectionate to Patches, probably one of the nicest people to Patches in the game ( next to Olive ). He gives Patches a heartfelt speech about how it's okay to feel bad and that Patches should feel proud of himself for his successes ( getting a homerun ), which makes Tigger start to respect Sparky. He is encouraging Patches to have fun and make friends in almost every sentence, but is pretty strict when it comes to Patches wanting to leave the field early.
If Patches chooses to hit Sparky in the head with the baseball full of nails, Sparky immediately looses all the friendliness and regrets having trusted Patches at all. If Patches chooses to go through with it, Sparky kills him mercilessly. The other cats and dogs seem to be on Sparky's side on this, rightfully so.
