You're now viewing the Overview section of what is indisputably the
largest, most detailed section of this entire website: the World
of Sonic. When this website was being built, many wondered
just what this mysterious section was about; why it sat there so long
without any updates, shrouded in mystery as to what its purpose was.
Well, guess what… the Overview is here to tell you just what this
section has to offer and why it exists. Let's investigate!
This
section suffered such a long, drawn out
period of time collecting dust upon the home page of the site when Concept:
"Mobius'" was first made, and many wondered just what
was the World of Sonic section? With such an ambiguous dubbing
as World of Sonic, this particular section could be one of
many things. But it would surprise you to know that it focuses on but
one simple, universal concept. Yes, a concept. A vision.
A collaborated, consolidated, and explicitly cultivated fabrication
of the masterminds behind this website. Although, most of it has been
created by myself (Nuclear Envoy.)
I've
been a Sonic fan since the little guy was introduced to the world, albeit,
I didn't become a major fan of it until Sonic Adventure 2. Since 2001,
my interest in the story of Sonic the Hedgehog grew and grew to the
immense proportions it now boasts. I've always been unusually interested
in the continuities of the Sonic franchise and their dramatic differences:
where one takes place and another doesn't, which characters go to which
continuity and their portrayal differences. But in the long run, the
one I am interested in the most is, oddly enough, the one which seems
the most deficient: the video game continuity. I have seen much potential
in it, and for a long time now, I have made a strenuous attempt to fix
it not only to benefit the fans, but to benefit myself and my close
friends. Over the years, we have imaged the Sonic Team Sonic universe
in our minds filled with detail and have even devised our own additions
to the world of Sonic. This section? The fruits of our labor.
The
World of Sonic section, to explain it as simply as I can, is a vast,
detailed and in depth encyclopedia of Concept: "Mobius'" vision
of the Sonic Universe. Although we will cautiously maintain and integrate
the original bearings of the videogame continuity, we will add depth
that hasn't already been added and we will add a lot of it while remaining
devoted conservatively to canon assets. You will have a chance to see
our own detailed map of Sonic's world and a chance to learn about some
concepts we have created ourselves for the Sonic universe such as our
original territories for Sonic's world, cities, races, civilizations,
historical aspects, important figures, mythology, and science.
This
section of the site is recommended solely for those who base their creations,
whether in the form of fanfiction, fancomics, fangames, or things of
the like, off of the video game continuity… but are in
dire need of an indepth environment from which to base them. We would
like to give our unified vision of the Sonic universe to you through
this section: an in depth, detailed, realistic, practical, scientifically-plausible,
fully functional version of the game continuity, modified in ways that
could only make it better. The plotholes will be gone, the history will
be revealed, and the detail will be high. Would you be interested? That
is for you to decide. Read onward to learn about what each sub-section
has to offer.
World of Sonic
»
The World
of Sonic sub-section is undoubtedly the largest sub-section on the entire
site. It's pretty much what makes this section of the site as big as
it is since it is a virtual encyclopedia regarding our unified vision
of Sonic's world. In this sub-section, you will learn about Sonic's
world in a detailed manner comparable to that of learning about Tolkien's
Middle-Earth or Lucas' Star Wars universe. However, you will learn it
through our eyes… we will add depth to what is already provided
in the game continuity and also add our own creations for your very
disposal to use in your own fanmade creation. It's not just our world,
it's everybody's.
The
World of Sonic sub-section will give statistics, raw data, and fill
in every single detail about the geography of Sonic's world, the races,
the timeline, and even brief historical essays (since it will mostly
be a very contemporarily-based encyclopedia). It will also be filled
to the brim with high quality graphics and art to illustrate and visually
express our concepts including landscapes, cityscapes, blueprints, concept
sketches, famous figures, and data-oriented.
Other Worlds »
The
World of Sonic sub-section focuses solely on the world Sonic & co.
adventure on in the video game continuity, and it does not account for
other worlds in the Sonic Universe, which throughout the series have
been evident. This sub-section of the site will focus on the other worlds
in our vision of the Sonic Universe in the same detailed manner as seen
in the World of Sonic sub-section.
Inspirations »
The
two first sub-sections of the World of Sonic section are so big that
and detailed that they obviously have some inspirations. This
sub-section will highlight some of the more substantial things that
inspired some of the creations in the World of Sonic and Other Worlds
sub-section, particularly what inspired many of our original additions
to the Sonic Universe.
Usage Application
»
Usage Application?
That makes no sense, I'm sure you're thinking. This sub-section will
basically be a single-page CSS-generated application template for those
who are interested enough in our adaptation of Sonic's world to use
it in their creations ranging from fanfiction to fangames. Whatever
you're making, we'd love for you to use our adaptation to Sonic's world!
Don't worry about canon issues, either! As mentioned, we're staying
as canon as we can with our adaptation, but we're adding in the best
ways we can to make it all come together in the best way possible. If
you're interested in our vision, simply fill out the application and
send it to us. There are no limits to what it can be used for, we just
want to know we've got admirers.
Current Users»
Corresponding
to the Usage Application sub-section, this sub-section will list every
single, solitary individual(s) that use our adaptation of Sonic's world
as the environment in their fanfic/comic/game, etc., etc including their
name (if offered), the reason they're using it, and what attracted them
to our vision. We are simply proud that our adaptation we work so hard
on is admired by the likes of the visionaries in the Sonic fanbase,
so we'd like to show each and every one of them here and offer them
a piece of immortality to be displayed on this site forever.
