Imperator Ix
First Appearance: Sonic Chronicles: The Dark Brotherhood

I feel I need to stress once again that Sonic Chronicles is a terrible, god awful game. Not for anything in particular but it's always worth making that reminder.

Imperator Ix actually has a pretty cool design. He's got a white headdress a robe that covers everything but his beady little eyes. He stands out and it's actually good.

Basically, he's a techno wizard in charge of the DaRk EcHiDnAs in Sonic Chronicles and he's got a lot of actually pretty cool moves too. Really, from a style standpoint Ix is pretty great.

In terms of character, he's pretty good here too. I'd say he's another standout of Sonic Chronicles, in that he's actually a maniacal kind of evil with a solid personality. He's unapologetically evil, arrogant, and he tends to back it up usually. He does also try to get Knuckles to join him, but that whole storyline is kind of ridiculous to me. But otherwise he's smart and cunning and his general plot is to just rule the world using the Master Emerald and Chaos Emerald.

I wouldn't mind seeing him or someone similar back in the Sonic franchise. He works and was one of the few enjoyable parts of the game. But again, we likely won't see it because of Ken Penders being highly litigious to defend his weird echidnas.

As a bonus, I think this gets across everything that you need to see to understand why Sonic Chronicles is so bad. Go ahead and watch the final boss fight and the little bit leading up to it. It tells you everything you need to know.

Rank: D

And another quality track of Sonic Chronicles. I know what you're all thinking: I wish they had remade the Diamond Dust Zone Act 1 theme from Sonic 3D Blast Genesis into a more modern remix, and inexplicably put it into a city zone. Well I'm here to let everyone know you actually don't need to wait any longer for that, because Sonic Chronicles already did it for you.
