Background

Fang the Sniper, also called Nack the Weasel, is a sly and conniving jerboa-wolf who resides in a mysterious alternate dimension. Extremely slick, Fang serves as a villain and treasure hunter who opposes Sonic the Hedgehog at every turn. Fang wields a popgun, which he uses to attack his foes from a distance.

Although not as physically skilled as people such as Sonic, Fang makes up for it using his equipment, such as his aerobike and missiles. Although people such as Knuckles the Echidna constantly find themselves being tricked by Dr. Robotnik, Fang only ever teams up with the doctor to serve his own desires. Most notably, Fang was able to acquire a Chaos Emerald after stealing it, in hopes of collecting the other six.

Fang was unable to retain his Chaos Emerald, eventually losing it, which resulted in the seven Emeralds being used to destroy the Death Egg II. Fang's further whereabouts are unknown.
