Archie is a skin in Piggy: Book 2. He is a member of Budgey's Crew and is the main bot and antagonist of Ship - Chapter 8. He was added into the game during Ship's pre-release, alongside Kamosi.

Appearance

Archie has gray fur, white whiskers, a white snout, a black nose and a small, white pupil on his left eye. There is also a slightly less gray spot which outlines his left eye. Similarly to Zompiggy, a portion of the right side of his face is ripped off, revealing his skull, which has a hole for eye. He wears an orange jumpsuit with hood, a white band on his left shoulder, black gloves and black boots. He has black belt and matching suspenders crossed in the shape of an X. He is also wearing a beanie with his left ear poking out.

Animations

Idle

He stands upright with his head down and one arm in front of the other. He also twitches his head to the right every few seconds.

Walking

Similar to his idle animation, but with his left arm forward and legs moving. His body also slightly bobs up and down.

Jumpscare

He throws his fire extinguisher in the air and grabs it, then swings it at the victim.

Stunned

Looks up and puts arms down, with occasional head twitching (overlays the current animation).

History

Crewmate of The Medora

Archie was part of the crew of a ship called The Medora. His leader was Captain Budgey, and his fellow crewmates were, among others, Bobby, Pepper and Kenneth.

Infection

Like the rest of the crewmates, Archie got infected, though it is unknown how he got infected. A particularly gruesome detail about Archie's infection is the fact that he probably got in some sort of accident, since right side of his face is partially gone, exposing his skull. Just like in case of most other crewmates, Budgey had no choice but to seal Archie in the lower levels of The Medora, though this also backfired on her, since this was also the place where the ship's fuel reserves were.

Attacking the Player

Much later, when Willow and the Player went to collect the fuel so Budgey can bring them to Doveport, the Player encountered Archie, who starts chasing them. Despite this, Archie failed to infect the Player.

• He costs the same as Clowny costing 385 Piggy Tokens.
  • Coincidentally, they are both the main bot for Chapter 8 in their respective books.
• He is one of the several skins in which when stunned on bot mode, it will display: "Archie will be back in 20 seconds" instead of the normal: "Piggy is gone for 20 seconds".
• Even though he costs 385 , he appears after Raze, who costs 400 .
  • The same error happens with Budgey, who costs 525 but appears after Torcher despite him costing 550 .
  • The same error happens with Glenn, Fergus, Jakayla, Shardantus, and Marley Russell who all cost 500 but appear after Poley, Mr. Stitchy, Owell, Frostiggy, Primrose, Bess, Gold Piggy, Phenna, Anteo, Laura, Bakari, Sentinel, Mr. Bliss, Gryffyn, and Ombra if any of them have been obtained despite them all being reward skins.
• Archie is the third skin to have their skull exposed, with the first being Skelly, and the second being Zompiggy.
  • Skelly is the only one to have their entire skull exposed.
• Archie is the only infected crew member to have a handheld weapon, unlike Bobby, Kenneth, and Pepper.
• Due to his height, he has some trouble getting through some areas.
• When you make Archie the bot in a Build Mode map and put patrol points, then turn the first person mode on, his theme will lack the echo effect.
  • This is present with all skins but is most notable with Archie.
• Archie's torso, which is leaned back, is not aligned with his hitbox. This causes a misconception that Archie has a bigger hitbox than other skins.
