Rouge the Bat is an anthropomorphic bat from the Sonic the Hedgehog series. She is an agent of GUN and part time jewel thief, though sometimes she is seen contracting work for Dr. Eggman or whoever will pay her the most. She often takes up the role of an anti-hero in the series, providing Sonic the Hedgehog and friends with info and assets they need for her own gain.
Background information
Rouge has worked for GUN since her very first appearance in Sonic Adventure 2. She frequently demands payments in jewels, and takes part in their secret missions sometimes to benefit her own profit. In Sonic X, though, Rouge is coerced into joining the government after being captured and arrested from various high-profile jewelry thefts she committed. Temporarily, she was also one of Eggman's henchmen, and still finds herself attracted to the good doctor's antics despite no longer working for him. Since then, however, Rouge has made more of her spare time hanging around Shadow the Hedgehog and e-123 Omega (and Topaz in Sonic X), the only people who truly consider her a friend.
Rouge is a shady figure, with her ties to the government, Eggman, and jewel thievery giving her a variety of mysterious connections and sources of information. Often she pillages this info for her own gain, though she usually gives it to other people to manipulate them in some way too. Usually, Rouge is met with an incredulous attitude towards her, often much to her offense. Rouge primarily works from the shadows, preferring to keep a low profile for her own agenda. Plans often change when she sees that they can be made to suit her needs. Sometimes, she does something flat out for her own profit, such as when she planned on stealing six Chaos Emeralds from Eggman. She's aso quite a flirt, teasing Knuckles and Shadow many times throughout the series. Rouge also has a nasty mean streak, and much of her dialogue in Sonic Chronicles towards other characters is particularly snarky or sarcastic.
Rouge's abilities include flying and gliding with her wings, secret agent martial arts kicks, and being able to dig with her pick nails. She is also usually equipped with a variety of gadgets on any given mission, such as dummy ring bombs, bat bombs, and a treasure scope for seeing invisible objects. Because of this, she is a very formidable foe in battle. Her downfall is her lightweight and floaty nature; keeping her in the air is a key to victory in Sonic Battle. Rouge also excells in teamwork to an extent, shown when she seems to be the glue of Team Dark in Sonic Heroes and how she provides the missing link in Eggman's global domination schemes in SA2.

Etymology
Rouge is named after "Rouge", a type of makeup, which in turn is derived from the French word for "red". It is also similar to "Rogue". Her original name, "Nails the Bat", was probably derived from the fact that she used pick nails on her feet to dig, which contrasted with Knuckles, who used the knuckles on his fists to do the same thing.
