Biography
WHOA!!!
Crash Bandicoot is the main protagonist of the Crash Bandicoot series and was originally named Willy Wombat. He is a genetically-advanced Eastern Barred Bandicoot who lives life on N. Sanity Island. Throughout the series, Doctor Neo Cortex is his usual arch-enemy, and is always defeated by Crash in order to keep peace around the island. Crash is often accompanied by his ally, Aku Aku, the secondary protagonist. In the earlier games, he tended to say "Whoa!" whenever he fell into a hole. In the later games, he spoke gibberish with a very basic knowledge of the language spoken in the game.

Opening
Crash opens a crate that contains Aku Aku, Aku Aku then tells him that there is a great danger threatening their and other worlds. He advices Crash to check out if Dr. Cortex is behind this, Crash nods and the two go on their way.
Rival
Name: Knack
Reason: When they arrive Aku Aku says that Dr. Cortex had to be around here somewhere. Suddenly Knack appears to Crash's surprise. Aku Aku says he recognises him as clone of Crash and says that he's working for Cortex. Knack only says they have to stay away for him to prevent bad things from happening. Crash then goes into battle mode and Aku Aku says that he is the one who should watch out.
Connection: Both Crash and Knack hold visual similarities. Also, it pits two completely different generations against each other. A classic hero from the PS1 era vs a new hero from the PS4 era.
Ending
After Crash and Aku Aku return Aku Aku points out that Crash has done a real good job by defeating that evil monster, although he expected it to be Cortex. Crash nods when suddenly there is an explosion in the background. Crash and Aku Aku look to each other and go to the explosion.
