Cosmic Beings
Chaos
The water god and guardian of the Chao.
- Adaptational Badass: While his power level is largely the same as a villain, Chaos never really did anything after his Heel–Face Turn in the games. Here, he comes back as an ally and he's still quite powerful. Notably when the planet breaks apart for the Unleashed adaptation, Chaos was added and it's through his power that the oceans don't drain.
- Adaptational Villainy: In the games, his Roaring Rampage of Revenge was a result of the Knuckles Clan attempting to steal the Chaos Emeralds and hurting the Chao he was protecting in the process. In the comic, this event never took place, effectively removing Chaos' motivation and rendering his rampage unexplained.
- Big Damn Heroes: Pulls this in #263 to save Sonic and Rotor from drowning.
- Heel–Face Turn: His purification at the end of Sonic Adventure has turned him into a valuable ally.
- Kill It with Water: His specialty. He can manipulate and shoot/throw water jets and spheres, and he even slams a Dark Gaia Guardian down with the freaking ocean.
- Making a Splash: He is made of water.
- Physical God: Powerful enough to hold back the oceans from draining out of Mobius and still slap around Dark Gaia's minions!
- The Voiceless: In his normal 0 form, he doesn't speak or make any vocalizations. Averted with the bone-shaking roar his Perfect form can unleash.
- Well-Intentioned Extremist: Its explained in the Sonic Comic Book Enclyclopedia that his turn into an antagonist was triggered by a power-hungry tribe of Echidnas trying to steal the Chaos Emeralds, and killing several Chao via trampling in the process. While his desire was to avenge the Chao, his anger quickly went out of control to where he wanted the entire world to feel his anger and sadness through destruction.
Tikal
- Big Good: The fact that she realizes what's going on with the Shattered World Crisis seems to lead her to be this.
- The Gods Must Be Lazy: Averted. Her lack of response towards Coral's prayers were less because Coral was a failure at reaching and more because Dark Gaia's influence was screwing everything up.
- Nice Girl: She's nothing but polite and friendly.
New Universe Characters (Post-Genesis Wave)
Shattered World characters
Chip
A.K.A Light Gaia. The same winged furry fella from Sonic Unleashed introduced in the comic proper in the new universe, he's put in charge of guarding a Chaos Emerald which got the Hooligans after him. Team Chaotix managed to save him and he's hung around with Knuckles helping to find the missing pieces of the Master Emerald. Eventually he meets up with Sonic and joins the Freedom Fighters in helping to restore the broken Earth following the Worlds Collide crossover.
- Adaptation Expansion: In the game he mostly just hung around Sonic, here he interacts with more of the cast. In fact he meets Knuckles first before Sonic.
- Attack of the 50-Foot Whatever: The Gaia Colossus which is needed to fight the Dark Gaia to which he controls it.
- But Now I Must Go: As in the game, he returns to the Earth once Dark Gaia is defeated.
- Distressed Dude: Ends up getting kidnapped by the Battle Bird Armada and brought to Eggman in the climax of the Sonic Unleashed adaptation.
- Laser-Guided Amnesia: Has amnesia due to being forcefully awaken when the Genesis Wave broke apart the world and as such doesn't really know his role as Light Gaia as of yet. He gradually gets it back over the course of the Shattered World adventure however.
- Late-Arrival Spoiler: The comic doesn't hide that he's the Light Gaia not long after he's introduced. So if you haven't played Sonic Unleashed, well...
- Nervous Wreck: When we first meet him since he was stuck in a mine in Pumpkin Hill in the dark and guarding a Chaos Emerald to boot. Can't blame him really.
- Pals with Jesus: Close to it anyway, Tikal and he get along pretty well. This is also essentially his dynamic with Knuckles, Sonic and the Freedom Fighters.
- Sealed Good in a Can: What he was countered with Dark Gaia's Sealed Evil in a Can. Ultimately has to return to it when Dark Gaia is beaten.
- Sweet Tooth: Can always be seen eating something sugar related.
First Spark
The entity that began all life in the universe. Appeared before Chip in the Mazuri Gaia Temple and helped him regain his memories.
Dark Gaia
The dark entity that slumbers within the Earth's core. Normally only to be awoken every thousand years, the Earth being split apart due to all the Genesis waves and Eggman ramming into Sonic after the end of Worlds Collide caused it to awake prematurely. With it's dark power spreading across the planet as monsters and likewise causing negative influences in certain areas as well.
- Eldritch Abomination: It's final form is a big serpentine like monster with multiple eyes for a head.
- Evil Is Not a Toy: Eggman thought he could use its energy to power Eggmanland and his Death Egg. All he accomplishes is helping to reform it, its powers decimating Eggmanland at the same time and nearly bringing about the end of the world.
- Evil Twin: As a joke in an Off-Panel comic strip, Dark Gaia is depicted as a darker colored twin of Chip with a black jacket. Sonic calls out that this plot is too ridiculous to continue.
- Final Boss: Dark Gaia's Perfect form is the final foe Sonic battles in this continuity.
- Greater-Scope Villain: For the whole of the Shattered World arc. While Eggman and his Egg Bosses are the central threat through most of the story. Its influence is still heavily felt what with its monsters causing problems for both the Eggman Empire and the Freedom Fighters.
- Hijacked by Ganon: As in the game, it is the ultimate threat of the Shattered World arc. Heck, Eggman practically and unwittingly helps reform it when he tried to use it's power to charge up the Death Egg.
- Nice Job Fixing It, Villain: Eggman's Cosmic Retcon caused Dark Gaia to awaken too early and break apart into monsters, wreaking havoc across the planet at night. While Eggman made a device to gather the energy for his Death Egg, he ultimately "repaired" Dark Gaia, allowing his fight with Chip to start again as normal.
- Omnicidal Maniac: Everytime he wakes from his slumber, he atttemps to wipe out all life from the planet he sleeps in. Luckily, Chip/Light Gaia always awakens in turn to stop him.
- Sealed Evil in a Can: What he is countered with Chip's Sealed Good in a Can. Wasn't intentionally awakened however in this rendition, but came about due to all the Genesis Waves finally taking their toll on the planet. It's ultimately defeated and resealed back in the Earth.
- The Corrupter: Somewhat. Like in Sonic Unleashed, its energy has a negative effect throughout the planet.
- Sonic breathing in some of its mist eventually caused him to turn into a were-hog and go feral initially before he learned to control its power.
- It causes the king and queen of Meropolis to act irrationally, blaming its guardian for incompetence and nearly dooming their people.
- Ellidy and Sally to get into a heated argument at one point before Sally snapped out of its influence.
- It turned the guardian of Chun-nan into a rabid Dark Gaia Phoenix.
Meropis Kingdom
A underwater kindgom of fish people within the South Ocean lead by King Puff and Queen Angelica. King Puff and Queen Angelica
- Face Palm: Angelica is seen doing this in a side panel during the "Champions" arc when Puff loses a wager with Razor from a bet on one of the fights.
- Hair-Trigger Temper: King Puff has a pretty short fuse and prone to outburst when he hears something he doesn't like.
- Oh, Crap!: Not stated out loud, but their expressions when they re-instate Coral seem this when they realize said outsiders whom they didn't believe at first are friends with Chaos.
- Reasonable Authority Figure: Subverted initially as they didn't believe Sonic's explanation about Eggman and the Dark Gaia and nearly dismissed Coral when she couldn't seem to wake their guardian. Once the Dark Gaia influence is cleared from the area however, they become more rational in their decisions, apologizing for their distrust and re-instating Coral as the head priestess of their city.
- Tiny Guy, Huge Girl: King Puff is comically short compared to his wife, who is more normal-sized.
- Women Are Wiser: It's pretty obvious Angelica is the main voice in her marriage with Puff, as she's the one who usually always speaks on their behalf.
Princess Undina
- Always Someone Better: Implied by her father, King Puff, to be a more capable priestess-to-be than Coral. Her absence was believed to be the main reason Coral got the job in the first place.
- Beneath Suspicion: One of the reasons she was able to gain so much info on the pirates was because they thought she was a dumb kid. She was just used to not being noticed, and knew how to use it to her advantage.
- Didn't Think This Through:
- She thought she could use the pirates to her advantage to travel the world, since she was too valuable a ransom, as well as the fact she can use Mystic Melody to locate ruins which could potentially contain treasure as payment for the travels. However, considering she was dealing with pirates, she didn't take into account the fact that they would be too greedy to listen to reason about certain warnings on the ruins they raided, or the fact that they may discard her if they get something more valuable. She especially gets worried when Shellbreaker admits to wanting to invade her home once he get his hands on a supposed weapon she found.
- Wanderlust is fine and all, but you still need funds to travel, and since Undina didn't tell her parents that she had decided to tour the world, she quickly found herself running low on money. It's only thanks to running into Honey and being offered a job that she managed to continue funding her trip.
- Early-Bird Cameo: Shows up first during the "Champions" arc (#271 to be exact) as one of the crowd enjoying the fight between Sonic and Knuckles and makes scant background appearances in following issues. She's finally introduced proper during the "Search for the Princess" arc in Sonic Universe.
- Hidden Depths: She comes off a bit lackadaisical at first, but can be more on the ball than a lot of people give her credit for:
- During a conversation with Espio, she hints that she doesn't mind staying with the pirates that "kidnapped" her, since it allows her to see more of the world more freely and without having to worry about funds, essentially stating she's using them for her benefit.
- She covered for the Chaotix when they were discussing their plan, keeping suspicion off of them from the Setting Dawn pirates.
- At the end of the arc, she ends up saving everyone by revealing she knew the password to the Setting Dawn, allowing the Chaotix, Razor, Crusher, Echo and herself to escape, explaining it was all part of her plan to take the ship for herself and continue traveling without worrying about them or money, as well as revealing that she was leading them on treasure hunts so as to keep them from targeting other ships.
- The reason she wants to travel in the first place? She'd like to be an ambassador to the surface world when she finishes her studies and returns home.
- Insistent Terminology: Prefers to be called Deena rather then her royal title.
- Valley Girl: Talks like a stereotypical one. Noticeably, she drops it near the end of the story when she and the others are safe, suggesting it was an act.
- Walking the Earth: She was initially studying at a college in Spagonia before deciding to travel the world. Fine and all... except she didn't bother to tell her parents. She reveals later that her parents were already adamant about her going to the surface for school and figures if they hear of the "kidnapping" incident, they'll force her to come home and never let her leave again.
Captain Striker
Leader of the Meropis city guard. A Mantis Shrimp.
- Arm Cannon: Like a real pistol shrimp, he can create a cavitation bubble with his large pincer hand. Unlike a real pistol shrimp, he can launch that cavitation bubble as a projectile, which is powerful enough to tear through Dark Gaia monsters like tissue paper.
- Eyepatch of Power: Has one on his right eye.
- Hook Hand: Claw in this case. He has a golden one on his left hand.
- Jerkass: Comes off as a bit of one. He doesn't really believe Coral is best suited for the job of priestess, claiming she's a fraud when she can't seem to raise their guardian and refusing to send backup when the temple is under attack. However, he changes his tone when Chaos helps fend off the threat and Tikal manages to help Coral fix the barrier over the city.
- Oh, Crap!: Seeing Chaos come to aid Sonic and Rotor during the fight against the Dark Gaia monster, which pretty much validates Sonic's story from earlier, which he had dismissed. In turn, this meant he had to swallow his pride and admit that he was wrong about Coral as well, since Sonic vouched for her earlier in front of Puff and Angelica.
- Super-Powered Shrimp: Striker is a mantis shrimp with a giant golden pincer on his left arm.
Echo
- Already Done for You: Non-video game example. During the "Search for the Princess" arc in Sonic Universe. She comes to the Chaotix Detective Agency to ask their help in finding her princess. When Vector starts going over where they need to start looking, Echo reveals she's already covered most of her bases in her search and only came to them because she hit a dead end with a dock worker who refused to help her, much to Vector's chagrin.
- Amphibious Automobile: Owns one, oddly enough, despite being an aquatic being. It's just a simple pink colored car that's modified to survive the ocean depths.
- Ascended Extra: A bit character during the "Waves of Change" arc. She gets a more expanded role in the "Search for the Princess" arc.
- Beleaguered Assistant: Ultimately becomes one to Undina, when she reveals she won't return home before traveling the world (as her parents were against her going to the surface in the first place and hearing of the pirate incident certainly won't help matters), and gets shanghaied into coming along with her on her trip to make sure she stays safe.
- Locked Out of the Loop: When it seems Razor and the Chaotix have joined the side of the pirates who "kidnapped" Undina, she's unaware that the two are doing it to keep said pirates from harming them until they can come up with a plan. Espio eventually clues her in later on.
- Mythology Gag: Her name to one of Sega's older games. I.E: Ecco the Dolphin.
Old Universe Characters (Pre-Genesis Wave)
Supporting characters from the original universe before issue #252. These characters most likely are permanently erased from the new timeline thanks to the Super Genesis Wave.
Cosmic Beings
The Ancient Walkers
A group of otherworldly beings who oversee the world.
- God Is Dead: Mammoth Mogul wounds them and though they are dying they still work to keep him trapped. Mogul then completes his long game gambit to retrieve the Sword of Acorns and blows them to pieces.
- Put on a Bus: Are never mentioned again after the reboot.
The Neo Walkers
A group of individuals replacing the Ancient Walkers after they died, consisting of Athair, Merlin Prower, and Aurora.
- God Job: In a sense.
- Put on a Bus: Gone after the Penders lawsuit.
- Suspiciously Similar Substitute: To the Ancient Walkers, role-wise.
Enerjak
Feist
A giant panda bear-like entity who lives in and controls the Special Zone, formerly the Zone of Silence aka the Void.
- Arch-Enemy: To Naugus big-time. He fought against him some time in the past and lost, which is what led him to being stuck there in the first place. Since Sonic and the gang are also enemies of Naugus, he's following the "enemy of my enemy is my friend" attitude with them.
- A God Am I: When the entire galaxy's collection of Chaos Emerald enter the Zone of Silence, he takes the opportunity to go full out this.
- Dimension Lord: As mentioned above, when all the Chaos Emeralds fell into the Zone of Silence, he took all of them and formed the seven Chaos Emeralds from the games while making himself the absolute ruler of the new Special Zone.
- It Amused Me: Apparently, his entire modis operandi as ruler of the Special Zone is basically having individuals who arrive there undergo inane challenges for his amusement, offering up a Chaos Emerald as a prize. He lets Team Dark run around his realm for an Emerald in the hopes of getting entertainment. Likewise when Eggman and Snively end up in the dimension, he has the two race for a Chaos Emerald.
- Put on a Bus: Gone after the Penders lawsuit.
- Reasonable Authority Figure: Downplayed example. When Sonic and Tails meet him, he gives Sonic the gray Chaos Emerald as a thank-you gift since it was their actions that allowed him to become Dimension Lord in the first place. However, he did say that was the only freebie and they'd have to earn one the next time they visit. He's also a guy of his word if you meet his challenges. Piss him off though, and "reasonable" goes out the window.
- Screw the Rules, I Make Them!: Since he's the lord of the special dimension, all who come into it are subject to Feist's rules which can change at his whims if he so wishes. For example, when Team Dark came into the realm a second time and agreed to his game. Shadow actually got to the Chaos Emerald with time to spare, but Feist cheats by putting a crystal barrier around it to make him waste time burrowing through and timing out just as Shadow was within reach of the emerald. By this point the Team were fed up with the flagrant rule abuse and went to Plan B, which was just have Omega blast Feist in the face, take the emerald by force and warp out of there.
- Whatever Happened to the Mouse?: He's the answer to the question, according to
Word of God. The residents of the Zone of Silence and the Void, including the original Freedom Fighters were destroyed and reduced to raw material that Feist used to make his Special Zone.
Argentium
A planet in the shape of a ring. It's unique gravity allows for life, cities, forests, oceans, etc. to form on its inner and outer perimeter. It is the home-world of the BEM, a four-armed race of scientists.
BEM
The dominant race on Argentium. The BEM are scientists famed across the universe for their resources and ingenuity. Their actions on Mobius lead to far reaching consequences.
- Alien Non-Interference Clause: After a disastrous attempt at saving a species resulting in its extinction, the BEM have adopted this mindset, although it is contested within their ranks.
- Bald Mystic: The BEM are all hairless green humanoid alien women.
- Blue-and-Orange Morality: A Downplayed example especially because In-Universe the BEM leadership has disagreements not only on what's right but if it's up to them to impose their ideas of right on other species. Their handling of roboticization is a major one. Their actions on Biotex where the population was de-roboticized was one that the government took issue with as it resulted in mass death. However when they examined Mobius and saw the superiority of Robians they decided that the population should be roboticized. Their focus was on whether the procedure would cause a greater benefit rather than if the species wanted it.
- Multi-Armed and Dangerous: BEM are four-armed.
- One-Gender Race: All BEM are female.
Ceneca-9009
A BEM scientist with a focus on roboticization. She discovered a society, on the planet Biotex, many years ago that had turned themselves robotic. Her well-intentioned but naive attempts to reverse the process lead to the species' extinction and since then her attempts to correct her mistakes have had mixed results.
- The Atoner: She believed that the Biotexians, a race who'd turned themselves into robots were in trouble and labored half a century to find a cure. In converting them back to organics, their bodies were unable to handle the polluted atmosphere as the roboticization was actually part of their alien evolution to adapt to the planet. The whole race died before Ceneca-9009 could correct her mistake and since then she's wanted to use her technology to rectify her mistake. This is why she returned the Robians of Knothole to their original Mobian state.
- Screw the Rules, I'm Doing What's Right!: When her higher-ups gave her the order to roboticize all of Mobius, following an experiment months before, she defied it and turned them all back (save for the injured Jules), knowing full well of the consequences. Sonic broke her out of prison because of that and saving Tails' parents years ago.
- Small Role, Big Impact: Ceneca-9009 was only in a few issues, but it was she who saved Tails's parents, turned Eggman and Snively back into organics, and de-roboticized almost all of the Mobians. She even added an extra form of immunity to ensure Eggman can't change them anymore, though he later went through great lengths to fix this (he claims that 50% is vulnerable by the time he wws done).
- Unwilling Roboticisation: Inverted. Ceneca-9009's studies are to deroboticize organic creatures, but unfortunately she's done it to many against their will, to disastrous consequences. She's also demonstrated the know how to roboticize organics, having done it to Sonic and Tails once.
