"Louis! Would you get your head out of the ground for once and try to have a little fun?"
―Peaches try to convince Louis to have fun with her on the way to the falls.[src]

Peaches is a young mammoth who lived with a herd that consisted of various other kinds of animals, all brought together out of care for one another.

Born to Manny and Ellie, two mammoths, in an underground world where dinosaurs still lived, Peaches was brought up close to her family, exhibiting the values that her parents instilled in her.

In her childhood, while awaiting one Christmas, Peaches was able to meet the magical human known as Santa Claus when the actions of her uncle, the ground sloth Sid, had ruined her family's traditional Christmas Rock. Peaches, Sid and her two possum uncles Crash and Eddie journeyed to the North Pole, guided by a magical reindeer named Prancer. While in the North Pole, Peaches aided her herd in constructing new toys for Santa, as well as starting his tradition of using a magical reindeer-drawn sled.

Well into her formative years, Peaches grew up with both the personal traits of a mammoth and of a possum, walking on the ground at times and swinging in tree branches at others. Filled with a sense of adventure, Peaches enjoys being with her molehog friend Louis, who harbors a secret crush on her and almost always travels underground.

A few years later, she ends up being engaged to a young mammoth named Julian and plans to venture off, leaving home, which panics and worried her parents.

Traits

Peaches has a light brown pelt with brown hair, she inherited Ellie's (Peaches' mother) green eyes and Manny's (Peaches' father) wider face shape. After she grows older, she starts to inherits her mother’s large rump.

Peaches' hair changes differently in each movie:

Biography

As a mammoth raised with customs typical to both mammoths and possums, Peaches was, in her younger years, impressionable and wide-eyed, this giving way to her later disposition as a young adult mammoth filled with a sense of adventure and excitement, always on the lookout for some new and exciting adventure, much to her father's dismay, who believed that she was not yet ready to venture off anywhere on her own.

Birth

"She's perfect. I think we should call her Ellie. Little Ellie.
I got a better name. Peaches.
Peaches?
Why not? She's sweet and round and covered with fuzz.
Peaches. I love it.
"
―Manny and Ellie naming their daughter.[src]

Two mammoths, Manny and Ellie, had journeyed with their herd into an underground world ruled by dinosaurs in search of one missing member: a ground sloth named Sid. Ellie was pregnant all the while and as she was on one of the higher sections of the canyon, she went into labor: with that, Ellie called out to Manny, shouting several kinds of fruit as she tried to remember their code word for Ellie's going into labor before recalling it: Peaches. Ellie had been cornered by a number of guanlong in a canyon known as the Plates of Woe while she was giving birth to her calf, and was defended by a saber-tooth tiger named Diego.

Manny and Ellie naming Peaches

After long, Ellie gave birth to one female calf, and Manny reached them in time, marveling at his newborn daughter, deciding that she should be called "Ellie". Ellie, on the other hand, preferred to name their daughter something more fitting: "Peaches," due to her being "sweet and round and covered with fuzz". Both parents agreed on the name while Diego watched with tears in his eyes, and with that, Sid appeared, along with Ellie's adoptive brothers, the possums Crash and Eddie, and a weasel named Buck, all riding a pteranodon. Sid was dropped into the scene and marveled at the new baby, initially thinking that Peaches was a boy, but when Diego pointed out that what Sid was seeing was actually the baby's tail, Sid corrected himself, and remarked that Peaches looked just like Ellie, while lamenting that his own children, three adopted tyrannosaurus, weren't with him.

Escape from Dinosaur World

"Stay with the baby.
We'll be fine; go.
"
―Manny to Ellie as he leaves to face Rudy.[src]

The herd left the Plates, led by Buck, who guided them back to the entrance of the Dinosaur World, when an immense baryonyx emerged from the entrance, Buck greeting the beast as "Rudy". Ellie kept Peaches safe while the others dealt with Rudy. On her arrival at the surface, a snowflake falls from the sky and Peaches decides to vacuum up it with her proboscis, that makes her sneezing, Peaches was amazed at the snow around her, playing in it with her uncles.

Christmas Adventure

Some time later, Peaches joined her family in celebrating christmas. When she overheard her father saying that Santa didn't exist, she decided to go to the North Pole to prove him wrong, joined by Sid, Crash and Eddie.Along the way, they met a reindeer named Prancer.

When the group made it to the North Pole, they accidentally ruined Santa's deliveries. Together with Manny, Ellie and Diego (Who had been following them), they all worked together to save Christmas.

Teenage Peaches

"I'm trying to protect you! That's what fathers do!"
"Well I wish you weren't my father!
"
―Peaches furious with Manny overprotecting her[src]

Some years later, now around 15 years old, Peaches snuck away from her parents before they woke up so she could go to the The Falls and meet Ethan, her best friend Louis reluctantly in tow. Manny intercepted them, and brought Peaches back. Peaches was almost by a log driven by Sid's Family, but was saved by Diego. She then slipped away, heading back to the falls. There, she slipped on some ice, crashing into Ethan.

Ellie comforting Peaches

At that point, Manny arrived, and embarrassed her in front of the other teens by grounding her. Incensed, Peaches stormed off. Manny followed, and a heated argument ensued, during which Peaches goes as far as to tell Manny that she wished he wasn't her father. At that point, the continent separated, sending Manny, Sid and Diego out to sea. Peaches was distraught over the loss of her father, and of the possibility that the last thing they did was fight.

Continental Drift

As the land continued to break up, Peaches returned to the falls, saving Louis, telling him "No matter what, you never leave a friend behind." She came back in time to see Ellie take charge of the animals, directing them to go to the land bridge, as Manny had told her. On the way there, Peaches was so depressed that she was almost caught in a landslide, but was saved by Louis. That night, she was visited by Ethan, who invited her to join his group the next day. Peaches excitedly agreed, even when Ethan told her to "ditch the molehog." Not even Ellie's advice about not letting a boy change her affected her mood.

The next day, Peaches joined the group as they split off from the other animals to explore a cave. Along the way, Steffie and her friends pressured Peaches into saying she and Louis weren't friends. To Peaches horror, Louis had overheard what she said, and sadly burrowed away. Moments later, a landslide entered the cave, threatening to bury them all. The group got out just in time. As the Brat Pack celebrated, Peaches admonished them for their recklessness. Steffie scoffed, asking if Peaches if she wanted to go back to "hanging out with a molehog freak," and Ethan added that it was bad enough her family was "half-possum." Fed up with the pack's lack of empathy, Peaches left the group for Louis.

The day after, Peaches watched with regret as Louis sorrowfully walked on his own. She talked to Ellie about her mistake, and her mother assured her that she would find a way to "make things right." It was then that they finally arrived at the land bridge, only to find it destroyed.

Reunited

At some point afterward, the animals were captured by Gutt and his crew. Gutt held Peaches hostage in order to

lure in the returning Manny. When Manny boarded the next ship, to exchange himself for Peaches' life, Gutt went back on his word, stating that Manny took everything he had from him and the evil captain intended to do the same. When all seemed lost, Louis intervened, distracting Gutt with a challenge and slamming a chunk of ice onto his foot, the pain causing him to release Peaches. When the battle against the pirates started to turn in the herds' favor, Gutt attempted to kill the bound Ellie. Peaches, using her "half-possum" skills, gave the evil ape a powerful kick, sending him to the ice wall, saving her mother just in time. As She and Ellie tried to escape, Gutt blocked Manny's path. Ellie and Peaches could only watch as the land mass Manny and Gutt on rose hundreds of feet high, leaving Manny up for the final confrontation against Gutt. After Manny defeated Gutt, Peaches thanked Louis, who echoed "No matter what, you never leave a friend behind." Taking Gutt's ship, the herd traveled to a new home. To her delight, Peaches was encouraged by her father to explore and have fun. The Brat Pack, won over by Louis' bravery, joined them.

Spring/Ice Age: The Great Egg Scapde

"...Maybe you'll be a grandmammoth someday."
―Peaches to Ellie[src]

During spring, Peaches was talking to her mom. Peaches remarked that she didn't want to be with family and would rather hang out with her friends. She kissed her mom goodbye and later Peaches and her family decided to spend the spring day together. Peaches picked up a baby bird and told Ellie she may be a grand-mammoth someday.

Tusker

Peaches was embarrassed to turn to a "web-site", called Tusker to solve her dating problems. Though it sounded promising to Peaches, she suffered horrible dates with sweaty-hooved mammoths and mammoths who still lived at home. But the one that stuck out the most was a muscular mammoth who wanted to take Peaches to a trunk show. Yet again, on another horrible date, Peaches was looking for a distraction from her date. She noticed a mammoth, disappointed sitting at a dinner table. He was having an even worse date. His date was taking hundreds of selfies. When the mammoth, called Julian, and Peaches locked eyes, it was love at first sight.

Dating

When Peaches and Julian first started dating, she told him she loved long walks on the glacier by her house. But since settling into their relationship, they'd both put on a little… hibernation weight. (Or as Sid called it, "love blubber.") He couldn't even remember the last time they played their favorite mammoth sport (squash, of course). Still, he knew the top of Lovers' Peak would be the perfect place to propose, and anyway - he was sick of feeling like the elephant in the room everywhere he went. A little exercise would be good for them. Grabbing Peaches and a pair of hiking hooves, they climbed toward the top, and when they finally got there, Julian said—between gasps for air—that all he wanted to do was shout about their love from the mountaintops. "I LOVE PEACHES!" he screamed and pulled out the ring. Suddenly, they heard a strange rumbling sound, and the ground began to shake. "Did you forget to eat lunch?" Julian asked, thinking it was Peaches' stomach. Just then a giant avalanche – caused by Julian's yell – came crashing down the mountain, taking the two mammoths with it! They fell head-over-hoof in the speeding snow, Julian's ring going airborne before lodging in his nose. When they finally hit the bottom, Peaches noticed the glimmering diamond in his nostril.

"Looks like you got a little junk in your trunk," she said, grabbing the ring and putting it on—and she hasn't taken it off since!

Hockey and Julian

"Lose something?"
―Peaches to Manny[src]
Mammoths

Peaches and her father, Manny, played a game of hockey on an ice hockey rink, and Peaches ended up beating him. Her now fiancé, Julian, told her she was amazing and slipped on the ice. Peaches tried to hold him up and keep him from slipping, and they had fun sliding around on the ice. Ellie, who had joined them, was given buttercup flowers from Julian. Ellie thought it was nice. Julian wanted to give Manny the best present of them all. He ended up giving Manny a giant bear hug, which Manny was very uncomfortable with. Peaches was about to go before Ellie reminded her of "the thing". Manny said he could do "the thing" but Ellie quickly said no. Peaches remarked it was a girl thing.

Manny and Ellie's anniversary

Peaches helped decorate for Manny and Ellie's anniversary party. Manny seemed to have forgotten, but the sky lit up with fireworks. Manny didn't do this, but took the credit it for it. Julian spilled the beans on how much he'd miss Manny and Ellie when Peaches and him left. Peaches choked on the apple she was eating and told Julian she hadn't told them yet. Manny mad about this, thought he had a huge problem. It was then that they realized that the fireworks were a meteor shower. They hid in an Ice Cave until they thought it was safe.

Finding Buck

"Peaches out."
―Peaches[src]

Later, they found their old friend, Buck, and Buck told them that an asteroid was approaching and lead them. In a forest, during a electrical storm, Peaches was stuck as purple lightening zapped around her. Julian attempted to save her, but couldn't because the cliff would break. Peaches had a plan to get out, and did. Manny and Ellie were then stuck but saved by Diego. Ellie, Peaches' mother, put Peaches to some tests. Ellie had Crash and Eddie be Peaches' babies, Sid be a beast, and Granny be an evil witch. Peaches stylishly finished the test and said "Peaches out". Meanwhile, Manny had hit Julian in the head with a hockey puck. Julian fell through the ice, into the icey waters. Peaches comforted Julian, as he was cold and wet. She was extremely mad at her father for doing so. Madly, she told him she was leaving and getting married no matter what. The herd rested and in the morning they found that Granny was missing. They heard her yelling and followed.

Geotopia

"...You're the only one that can make the end of the world seem like a good thing."
―Peaches to Julian[src]
The herd now with Teddy

In Geotopia, they found that Granny was getting massages by a prehistoric rabbit called Teddy. Brooke, a sloth, took the herd to the Shangri Llama, their master. Peaches and Julian sat together by Geotopian water. Peaches, highly upset about possibly not marrying Julian because of the end of world, was comforted by Julian. Julian told her that their life flashes before their eyes, he'd fall in love with her all over again. This made Peaches happy and they cuddled. Sid broke the Geotopian wall trying to get a crystal for Brooke. The Geotopians agreed to give their crystals up to a volcano, to shot them off and change the direction of the asteroid. It worked and they celebrated their victory.

Peaches' Wedding

Julian and Peaches wedding

Peaches happily married to Julian.

At Peaches wedding, she was nervous. She told her parents she didn't know if she could do it. But Manny and Ellie had confidence for her getting married finally. With a Twig-Flower headband, she walked down the aisle. Manny passed her trunk to Julian and a hyrax married the two mammoths together. Brooke sang My Superstar for Julian and Peaches' wedding as well.

Personality and traits

Peaches was always adventurous and independent, even at a young age. As a teenager, she frequently disobeyed her father's rules about going to the Falls, wanting to spend time with other animals her age. Even when she did so, she always tried finding a way to placate her father when he found out. As an adolescent, she becomes more willing to stand up to her parents and declare her decision of moving away with Julian as final when Manny and Ellie attempt to get them to stay with them.

Despite her rebellious attitude and inherited stubbornness from her father and mother, Peaches also shares her parents' big hearts and cares deeply for her friends and family above all else; most evident is when she berates Ethan and the Brat Pack for treating the impending continental drift like a game and standing up for her family's heritage of being half-possum after Ethan makes a deriding remark about them, along with accompanying her uncle Sid to find Santa Claus and get him off the Naughty List. Peaches also shows bravery and courage when her loved ones are in danger, with the best-known examples being unwilling to abandon Louis and defending her mother from Gutt's attempted assassination; the latter makes her father realize that his daughter is growing up and can take care of herself.

Peaches has a light auburn pelt with brown hair, along with shorter tusks than her parents and mammoths her age. Her appearance harbors the best traits of both parents, having her mother's green eyes and her father's wider face shape. After she grows older, she starts to inherit her mother’s large rump.

Peaches' hairstyle changes differently in each movie:

Relationships

Manny

At first in her teenage years, Peaches thought the falls was OK to go with Louis, but Manny would not let her. Making her sneak off anyways, when Manny caught her they argued. But they got separated by the continental drift. She cried and worried not to see each other again. But Ellie comforted her and said he will come back. When they got her, Louis saved her. But they got separated again to fight off the pirates. He saw Peaches was all grown up when he untied his wife Ellie. Then she wanted to hang out with her friends and Manny made a deal with Peaches "an hour after sunset?".

In the next film, Manny was sad and angry that Peaches and Julian were moving away. He tried everything he could to keep stay near him and Ellie. Peaches was shocked that Manny said he did like Julian. Because what she saw was her parents seeing Julian as a obstacle or a target. But she believed that he was just trying to impress them and a sweetheart. And she would get married and leave no matter what. When her wedding arrived however she was nervous, but her father realized she was finally ready and let her marry Julian and he said "Whenever you decide to come back we will be here for you."

Julian

Julian is Peaches' husband and she would do anything and everything for him. She is angry at her parents for being upset that they were leaving, but Manny and Ellie soon realized they had to let it go and let them get married.

Ellie

Ellie is Peaches mother who frequently gives advice, but she does a better job in the Continental Drift because she knows about friendship and family and she did not approve Julian until she and Manny realized they had to let it go.

Louis

Louis was Peaches' best friend and The Brat Pack disapproved him until they saw his bravery.

Ethan

Ethan was Peaches crush until she figured out he thought unsafe things are fun. The rest of the Brat Pack also agree unsafe things are fun and they sometimes make fun of Peaches and Louis.
