Villain Overview

Eternal Sun! The Living Flame that has been entrusted to the royal family! Fall into slumber with a royal soul!
~ The Duke of Soleanna about Iblis.

Iblis, also known as the Flames of Disaster, is the secondary antagonist of the 2006 video game Sonic the Hedgehog. He is a destructive monster made of lava and the "raw power" of the sun god Solaris.

Born from the flames of an experiment gone wrong by the Duke of Soleanna, Iblis proceeded to lay waste to the world in Silver's timeline, devastating most of civilization. His other half, Mephiles the Dark, sets out to ensure Iblis' rampage goes accordingly in the present so they can merge and become Solaris once again.

Appearance[]

Iblis initially started off as a rock that shattered into a ball of flames. As time went on, Iblis evolved into a monster composed of lava and rocks. His first form had four arms and was armored up with rocks. His second form took on more of a serpent appearance, gaining sharp horns. His final form takes on more of a humanoid appearance where he gains two arms, two legs, and a tail. Like Mephiles, he lacks feet. In all of his forms, Iblis always has green eyes. In his second and third form, he gains a third eye on top of his forehead.

Biography[]

Past[]

Iblis, also known as the Flames of Disaster, was the second half of Solaris, consisting of the entity's raw power. Like Mephiles, he was born from the Solaris Project when Solaris was split in two. The Duke of Soleanna sealed Iblis inside his daughter, Princess Elise, in order to prevent him from destroying the world. However, if Elise were ever to cry, her tears would release Iblis from within her.

In the original timeline, Iblis was released following Elise's death when the Egg Carrier crashed, and proceeded to lay waste to the world for the next two centuries. Sonic prevents this from happening by going to the past and saving Elise.

In the future, Silver was born in Crisis City which is 200 years in the future, he did state that the future was like this before he was born. Silver and Blaze fought against Iblis, but no matter how many times Silver defeated him, he would always survive, only reduced to a ball of fire from which he regenerated. Sensing his desperation to put an end to Iblis once and for all, Mephiles tried to manipulate Silver into going back in time and killing Sonic, claiming that Sonic would be the one to release Iblis, but his true intent was to release Iblis from inside Elise. After Silver defeated Iblis the final time, Blaze sealed him inside herself and then sealed herself in a different dimension, leaving what happened to them both afterwards unknown. However, what happened in the Last Story would erase Iblis's actions from history.

Sonic the Hedgehog (2006)[]

This world was devastated before I was born. A harsh, bleak place, where we live in eternal darkness. Life is a struggle, and people live without hope. How did this happen? No one will answer me directly, but they always point... to the flames. These flames. they burn away my world destroying everything in their path. They come from an eternal life form that we cannot truly defeat. The Flames of Disaster, known as Iblis.
~ Silver the Hedgehog about his origins and Iblis.

To get Iblis out of Elise, Mephiles kills Sonic with a Dark Chaos Lance. Elise breaks down crying in despair, releasing Iblis, who joins up with Mephiles to become one, "Solaris the Timeweaver". Later, Elise revives Sonic using the Chaos Emeralds and a kiss, turning him into Super Sonic. He joins up with Shadow and Silver to defeat Solaris. After destroying Solaris, Sonic and Elise are sent back to the past, where she puts out the flame that becomes Solaris, thus erasing both Iblis and Mephiles from existence.

Personality[]

Iblis initially starts off as a primitive, mindless beast, serving as the embodiment of Solaris's pure strength and power. Like Mephiles, he desires chaos and destruction, but while Mephiles is a cunning and manipulative individual capable of strategic planning, Iblis's intentions are more blatant and clear as he goes for the direct approach by actively seeking out destruction.

As Iblis evolves throughout the game, however, it appears that he begins to develop a consciousness of his own. This is notably shown during his final battle with Silver and Blaze where he appears to be more focused and concentrated on defeating them and utilizing his attacks, as opposed to being a rampaging monster.

Powers and Abilities[]

Being the raw strength and power of Solaris, Iblis is a very powerful being. He is able to use psychokinesis, manipulating fire and lava based attacks at his will. He is also capable of summoning meteors and, like Mephiles, can create his own army of monsters.

Iblis also possesses a large degree of super strength and durability. He is able to life and smash large buildings and is able to resist Silver's telekinetic attacks. Like Mephiles, he is capable of shape shifting his appearance and possesses the power of immortality, as he always able to come back stronger than before.

Trivia[]

  • Iblis is named after Iblis, a djinn from Islamic theology who refused to bow down to humanity, only to end up as the one who corrupts the humans out of revenge.
