Obelix

A super fat Gaul?
Obelix is an over-sized Gaul. The reason for this is because he eats a lot of roast Wild Boar, a delicacy of the Gauls. Even though he eats a lot of Wild Boar, he is strong because when he was a baby he fell into a cauldron full of strength potion. The potion had a permanent effect on him meaning if he drinks more, he will turn to stone. However, in Asterix and Cleopatra, Getafix gave him a few drops so he could open something. He didn't feel a difference.

Where he lives
He lives in a village with Chief Vitalstatistix. There are a few shops such as a fish shop, a wild boar shop, blacksmith, where the forger uses bare hands as he has usually taken strength potion. There are houses and wooden barricades surrounding the village. The Roman Empire is annoyed with the Gauls because their village takes up the land.

His job
Obelix works in a quarry where he carves out stone and delivers them to the person who requested them. The person then uses it as a decoration, frame, or carves it out into a statue.

Fatness inspection
He is ignorant of the fact that he is fat, when people say 'your fat friend here' to Asterix, Obelix says 'what fat friend' with Asterix trying to figure out how to word it to him. When in a bad mood, hearing the word fat, stout, over-sized, really fat, that is enough for him to get a red face.
