Now Viewing: roxyTag type: Character Roxy (ロキシー) is a video game character from Capcom. She first appeared as an antagonist in the Final_Fight fighting game from 1989. She is a color swap version (palette_swap, player_2) of Poison_(Final_Fight) with orange_hair instead of pink. Poison and Roxy were initially conceived as females, but were changed to being male transvestites/cross-dressers/pre-op trans women (newhalf)/post-op trans women during the development of the game because it was thought that hitting women was politically incorrect. However, character profiles featured in the 2005 compilation Capcom Classics Collection state that Poison is a male transvestite/cross-dresser, while Roxy is a female: "Roxy grew up in the same LA orphanage as Poison. She always looked up to Poison although she doesn't really dig the cross-dressing thing." —Capcom (2005-09-27). Capcom Classics Collection Vol. I. Capcom. Level/area: Final Fight biographies. In English ports of the games to Nintento consoles, both Poison and Roxy were replaced by two male thugs named Billy and Sid in order to avoid any controversy.
