Sir Raleigh (Sly Cooper)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Sir Raleigh is a character from the video game Sly Cooper and the Thievius Raccoonus. He is a stereotypical "rich guy gone bad" villain.
Sir Raleigh was born into a live of nobility and privilege, but grew bored with it. On a whim, he tried his hand at piracy, and discovered that he enjoyed it. Becoming addicted to crime, his tinkering genius earned him a seat in the Fiendish Five as Chief Machinist. After the attack on the Cooper home was completed, Raleigh took off with the notes of Rioichi Cooper.
Years later, Raleigh had established himself near the Isle O'Wrath, situated in the center of his artificially created Welsh Triangle. Using his Storm Machine to wreck the local weather conditions, Raleigh wrecked a large number of vessels before Sly arrived. Boarding the Machine, Sly confronted the frog. Despite swallowing special bees and bloating to massive size to crush Sly, Raleigh was beaten. Right on cue, Carmelita Fox arrived to arrest him and his crew, ending the legend of the Welsh Triangle.
He did not appear in Band of Thieves or Honor Among Thieves
Raleigh is an anthropomorphic frog.
