"I'm the strongest smurf"

Hefty is a Smurf character that appears in A Heroic Smurfs series of HERO: The Guardian Smurf stories.

History
Like in the cartoon show, Hefty is the strongest and bravest Smurf and is willing to use his strength to help his fellow smurfs. He is easily identifed by his heart-with-arrow tattoo on his upper right arm.

He spends most of his time exercising, and his house if full of work-out equipment. He is also the most athletic of the Smurfs, being able to climb tall trees with ease.

He also has a small rivalry with Hero, as it was shown in the story Hefty vs. Hero, where every smurf believed Hero was much stronger than Hero, which made him challenge Hero to a quarterstaff fight.

Role
Hefty is the smurf that carries the heavy loads that the other smurfs can't, he is mostly seen helping Handy by carrying heavy objects.

Hefty is also one of the few smurfs who will accept any kind of dangerous journey, if Hero is not around, this makes him one of the top choices to send out of the Village to retrieve something.

Relationships
Hefty's best friend is Handy, as their friendship is like "Brains and Brawns", despite the small fights the two get themselves into.

Hefty, like most of the smurfs has a crush on Smurfette, he keeps on trying to help her, but she hates him when he tries.

Even though deep down he cares for Hero, he does a small rivalry with him.

Possible Voice Actor
The desired voice actor would be Frank Welker, as he voiced the character in the cartoon show.
