Rarely do they ever have big fights although in Obelix and Co. They formerly worked together as the chief's shield bearers. Again, while many may agree that both Asterix and Obelix share the same feelings for the same woman, Panacea (judging from the way Asterix often looks at her, trusts her, obeys her, and even goes as far as to kiss her in a hypnotic trance which may be symbolic for love-sickness itself) it may simply be an act of instinct rising out of loneliness, as both Asterix and Obelix do not get close to women.Īsterix is portrayed to have a strong bond with his best friend, Obelix. He also seems similarly affected by a kiss from Latraviata, the female protagonist in Asterix and the Actress, although then it seems that Latraviata's effect on Asterix may have gone deeper, as he reflects on her (or maybe something else) during the journey back to their village. He seems 'lovestruck' after receiving a kiss from Panacea towards the end of Asterix and the Legionary and remains so till the last strip. In Asterix and the Cauldron, however, it is clearly stated that neither he nor Obelix has ever done anything of the sort to 'earn' money.Īlthough no romantic interest has been introduced for Asterix as of yet, it seems obvious that Asterix is more susceptible to the charms of women than his best friend, Obelix. What he does for a living is never truly known, though he is often shown running errands or out shopping and hunting. He rarely resorts to weapons, preferring to rely on his wits, and when necessary, his (magic potion enhanced) fists - though he carries his sword with him wherever he goes, he is shown to be only an average swordsman. Unlike most of the other villagers, he does not start or join brawls for the fun of it, although he does enjoy a good fight when there's cause.
Asterix is one of the smartest and most sensible members of the village, and so he is usually chosen for any dangerous, important, or exotic mission. He lives in the year 50 BC in a Gaulish village located in northwest Armorica. Born in 85 BC, Asterix is a tiny but fearless and cunning warrior, ever eager for new adventures.
