[i]It's been nearly a year since the last sighting of Doctor Ivo Robotnik, more widely known as Dr. Eggman. After yet another in a long line of defeats from his nemesis, famed hero Sonic the Hedgehog, he and his empire went underground without a trace. In the beginning, the world stood ready for his return. But as days turned to weeks, and weeks to months... he never did.

The world rejoiced in his apparent disappearance, both humans and mobians alike as life returned to a state of normalcy. However, some weren't convinced that he was truly gone. Some continued to seek him out, to put an end to his schemes once and for all. But to this day, neither he nor his empire have resurfaced.

Now the world begins to celebrate the anniversary of his apparent final defeat, with everyone hoping for the best as they look towards a bright future, unaware of what would lie ahead...[/i]

Welcome. This here is going to be my spin on an alternate Sonic Universe. The events will kick off shortly before the events of what would begin the six month war alluded to in Sonic Forces. That area of history is pretty open to interpretation, and the game events themselves really could use some drastic improvement in some areas. So... we're going to do just that. Expand on the original story and branch off from it.

Of course, this beeing an alternate universe, there will be some modified events. Ways to help bring the best parts of the franchise together in a coherent and enjoyable way. Things like:

[list][*]Modern incarnations of classic characters such as the [b]Knothole Freedom Fighters[/b] and other old Archie Characters that have been all but abandoned by the current canon and lore for one reason or another. Getting to see what events happened in this worlds past that brought them together, and where they are now.
[*]An expanded world outside of South Island, like we saw in games such as Sonic Unleashed. The world is gigantic, with so many amazing places to explore and discover that the games and even the comics don't touch upon anymore.
[*]Rare and more obscure species being brought into play with new lore, such as the alien [color=8dc73f]Seedrian[/color] race or the powerful [color=f26522]Dragon Mobians[/color], among the countless other species that exist in this world.
[*]Returning many characters to what should be their personalities and true character based on what they've been through, staying true to who they've become over the years.
[*]And More![/list]

All of this abides by what I've come to know as [color=fff200][b]The Golden Rule[/b][/color]. And that rule is simply [u]"Can You Make It Make Sense?"[/u] So, as long as you can do that... I'll probably allow it!

This kind of story has plenty of room for players to take control of existing characters or bring their own into the fray, and I'm more than happy to take suggestions and critiques! My intent is to create a world that, as already stated, blends the best of the franchise into an enjoyable experience for everyone!

I'd love to hear your ideas and see some interest if you guys are indeed interested, I know this is a fandom that can generate some amazing creations if we put our heads together. Hope to see you guys around!
