- —Augie, Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope
Augie is a giant Rabbid believed to be the deity of Beacon Beach, making him the planet's warden.
History
Background
Probably thanks to his giant height, Augie is considered by Beacon Town citizen as a god. This gave Augie the idea to act as one, even erecting a temple to himself, full of portraits that depict his myths as the shameful and disastrous twin, that was in the end banished from the Gods home to protect Beacon Beach. His self-victimization was intentional to appear more sympathetic.
Not long after the arrival of the Sparks, Cursa's Spark Hunters appeared, demanding the creatures threatening the town with Darkmess tentacles and puddles, darkening the town by corrupting the Lighthouse.
Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope
When the heroes arrive to Beacon Beach, Augie fearfully attempts to shoo them away, believing them to be Spark Hunters. When Beep-0 explains to him the situation, Augie tells them what is going on in his planet, appearing after every main events to congratulate with the heroes for their job. He later gets scared when Edge appears, mistaking her for a Spark Hunter, but she reassures him to not be on Cursa's side.
Profiles
Memory
Research into the warden of Beacon Beach, Augie, reveals a myriad of known traits - insecure, attention-seeking, irresponsible, impulsive, cowardly, childish, gluttonous, entitled, dishonest, poor hygiene. Yet the ones that come up most often are "kind-hearted" and "lovable". How these characteristics can be made compatible is beyond my current comprehension. I will have to investigate further.
