Originally, the world was a peaceful place named Mobius. It consisted of most of the zones from the Sonic games, all the way up through Sonic Adventure 2. At the center of it all was Central City, but that city has lost its central importance since then.
It had been a couple years past the events of Sonic Adventure 2; the world had finished recovering from its near-destruction by the mad Gerald Robotnik. But things were not as peaceful as they seemed... Shadow the hedgehog returned after four years, seeking the chaos emeralds. He had one mission in mind: Revive Maria. Unfortunately for him, he was working with Dr. Eggman, who had other plans.
Shadow fought his way to gathering the emeralds. He even turned against Sonic in order to get them. But when Shadow gave the emeralds to Eggman, the treacherous doctor decided to use them on himself instead, via a strange belt. He became Hyper Robotnik, and proceeded to fight both Sonic and Shadow--but as usual, his reign of terror did not last. He was easily defeated by the two hedgehogs. The emeralds scattered again...
But Eggman was not through. Using his genius mind, he discovered a way to break through the barriers between dimensions, and in turn teleport into alternate realities. He warped to a world where a good version of himself, Dr. Kintobor, had sealed away the evils of the world into a separate version of the chaos emeralds. These so-called 'Dark Emeralds' were easy to steal, especially for the evil Dr. Eggman. The Eggman plotted to use them for world domination; he took them back home, expecting them to stay with him.
To Eggman's chagrin, the Dark Emeralds scattered when he entered Mobius again. The cursed stones began to introduce those sins to the hapless population of Mobius. Many formerly good people to became evil versions of themselves, and the balance of the world to shift uncontrollably. Once again, the world was in peril. But once again, a group of heroes rose up and defeated the sins of the emeralds themselves--with the help of the Maria from the alternate universe. Then the Zone Cops (beings who ensured the balance of the universe) and their representative (Zonic the hedgehog) made sure they were sent back. And for a time, everything was peaceful...
...But Eggman was a tough egg to crack. He rebuilt the Death Egg from old parts, then enlisted the aid of one of his greatest fans: Beangirl. Shadow rejoined the Eggman Crew (despite the past dispute) and together they managed to create a deadly ice cannon. This Death Egg-mounted cannon froze Downunda (the southern continent of Mobius) into a sort of ice age. The emeralds were also collected yet again.
But the heroes of the past did not let this go uncontested. They (Tails, Debt, Killer, Sonic, and possibly others) broke into the Death Egg and fought against Eggman's vile scheme yet again. Eggman fled soon after Beangirl was apparently killed by a shot from Killer. Sonic and Shadow fought a GUN walker before escaping the Death Egg. And with a large explosion, the entire Death Egg (and all the plans related to it) were toast.
But Eggman struck again, this time with the aid of GUN. GUN created a cybernetic dragon and then proceeded to threaten the world. If the world did not surrender to GUN, their cyber-dragon would blow it up by making a nearby volcano explode. Even worse, GUN mind controlled Shadow into following them, and Sonic somehow managed to disappear. Things looked bleak, at least until the heroes of old once again came forth and saved the day. Amy managed to release Shadow from his mind control, and Tails and Emmy helped fight off GUN.
GUN still managed to obtain the final emerald they needed, though, and used it to power up a new and improved version of the Ark's death ray. GUN could still rule the world, after all--they had this gun. However, their old dragon project got in the way, so they blew that up. Few would even remember that dragon named Neo Nemesis, anyway. But that cannon was blown up by some futuristic figure in armor, who sent all the emeralds flying away before vanishing. GUN's plot was foiled, once and for all.
...After a while of relative peace, though, the heroes were once again under fire. After a relatively minor encounter with a group named M.O.O.D., suddenly a strange genius named Dr. Dingel Dongle thrust a new invention at them: Roboticization. Using this terrifying invention, he turned Sonic into a robotic villain! His vile invention also turned Gruff (a grizzled police sergeant) and Genevieve (Casinopolis' mayoral candidate) into robotic death machines... In the end, though, he was defeated by the heroes yet again, even after sending Genevieve (the only -truly- roboticised mobian in all of this) to fight them.
Afterwards, it was discovered a massive meteorite was heading towards the planet. The heroes once again collected the chaos emeralds, and managed to avert it... barely. At the same time Knuckles and some others went to Downunda and defrosted it.
Afterwards, Eggman designed himself some nifty air boards, and attempted to run a tournament with it. He also hired a trio of bird thieves called the Babylon Rogues. They were going to help him steal the emeralds. However, mere moments before the first race was to start... his entire flying base (Metal City) exploded.
Metal Sonic's nearby experiments had caused this. He and Killer had taken over a toy company named Klein Toys. Together, the two maniacs planned to rule the world. They brainwashed the children of Central City into becoming their servants using hypno-toys. They quickly took over the town, and spread outwards to take over Casinopolis and Green Hill zone. They then proceeded to assimilate GUN, leaving only ten members of the original GUN still standing. Using their might, they completely took over the government of the area and became rulers of that part of Mobius--but not without problems. With no more good guys to fight, they began fighting among themselves.
Killer fought Metal Sonic to the finish, seemingly dying. Metal Sonic himself vanished. Klein Toys remained, though its power was diminished...
Eggman attempted to begin another tournament, this one a fighting tournament. Despite promising amounts of volunteers, no actual fighting occurred. Perhaps the fact Klein Toys was ruling the world at the time had foiled it.
A few fighters struggled to take down Klein Toys. Metal Sonic reappeared as well. This time, he wanted to destroy Klein Toys--apparently because Killer's family still controlled it. Eventually, an organized team with Tails, Silver, Ronia, Metal Sonic in disguise, Shadow, and co. took down Miss Hades and Klein, restoring order to the world.
But this order was short-lived, as the city of Maru Mari had been built nearby. It was made by a company owned by a strange being named Gyrus D, and had a special beam device...
This device proved irresistable to Eggman, who took it over immediately. Once he had control, Eggman used it to trap the then-returning Little Planet in his clutches. GUN had ideas on it too, for they had landed on Little Planet and built bases on and around it.
Fighting occurred repeatedly between GUN and Eggman. Eggman used a Time Stone he obtained to bring back Evil Debt and revive Beangirl, and made a mess for other people (Ronia in particular). GUN struck back, but then a new wrinkle occurred--if the Time Stones were not found, the entire world (and time itself) would be destroyed. Thus they and Eggman made a truce to find all the Time Stones and re-unite them before it was game over for everyone. Metal Sonic caught onto this and aided in the search, although he planned to use them for himself...
Many of the stones were gathered, but one was missing. GUN, Eggman, Metal Sonic, and a now-crazed Evil Debt came into conflict over finding this last Time Stone. Evil Debt had discovered that Eggman had no qualms using her as an object, and, knowing her continued existence was unlikely, threatened to steal the last Time Stone and hide it.
As mentioned earlier... if the Time Stones weren't recovered, all of time would be torn to bits without them to regulate it. They were needed at a special shrine on Little Planet to ensure this did not happen. Eggman's base at the shrine didn't help matters; still, the final Time stone was found right there... with Killer, Debt, Metal Sonic, and Eggman all poised to grab it.
A grand battle began, with Evil Debt trying to get Killer to harm Eggman, and Metal Sonic just shooting at whoever he pleased. A surprise ending occurred--Skyler appeared out of nowhere and killed Evil Debt. Soon after, the Time stones were replaced; Maru Mari was taken over by GUN (due to technicalities in the truce) and Little Planet was allowed to fly away as it usually did.
Though there was never to be peace in Mobius, as a being named Mammoth Mogul re-awakened from an ancient slumber. He had been biding his time while the chaos with Little Planet had occurred, but now he finally made his explosive debut, blowing a hole in one of Metal Sonic's Klein Toys bases. It came as quite the surprise--especially since Metal Sonic's attempt to revive Klein Toys had been rather secretive until Mogul happened upon it.
Mogul built up his own army, gaining many Majin by hook or crook. He recruited Olivia, Killer, Logan, Izzi, Credence, and Four in all. His acquisition of Four ticked off a crazy commander at Casinopolis named Anthon Tark. Anthon had presided over GUN's response to Metal Sonic's destruction of Mogul's house earlier, and now found his secret weapon (Four) kidnapped and gone. One thing led to another, and GUN blew apart a civilian airship Mogul had bought. Even with a chaos emerald, Mogul could not repel the GUN fleet, and he was knocked down and out for a short while. Meanwhile, one of GUN's ships was destroyed by a mysterious 'mind control event'--most likely Mogul's handiwork.
In the background, Metal Sonic's ships shot down a massive flying steamwork city-ship. Though it was later dismissed as a hallucination by bored GUN pilots, as no traces of said ship were ever found, despite it clearly having been heavily damaged by Casinopolis. Anthon himself confirmed that it had an owner, but had no clue where it had come from or where it went, and the matter was ignored by the rest of the world.
Meanwhile, Mogul built a house and a church, and acquired a set of mobsters on his side. But he was too successful--indeed, he achieved godhood too soon to control the world he'd set up his pieces to take over. Once a god, he lost all interest in ruling the mortal plane and left for the upper ones, never returning--well, mostly.
Metal Sonic, meanwhile, had rebuilt Klein Toys, and was busy on a new project involving of all things... outer space. Killer continued manuevering in the background, and eventually disappeared in a mysterious special zone warp after a number of incidents in which he used the Master Emerald to incapacitate people like Logan.
Later, Anthon Tark appointed Genevieve mayor of Casinopolis and helped to rebuild it. Metal Sonic, scheming again, tricked Sonic into granting him access to the special zone. Just as many people conspired to destroy Metal Sonic's base Aquatic ruins, he returned with stolen energy from the zone and launched his ship into space. Meanwhile, a group of cybernetic echidnas emerged from hiding and rebuilt their 'Dark Legion' on Angel Island.
Just as Anthon was getting used to peace, he heard of an AI named Search and his plan to use the ARK to attack Metal Sonic's space-bound base. Intruders had broken into the ARK, and it was up to Tark to remove them. Tark used a secret GUN teleporter to warp aboard with Killer and brought the situation back to normal. He drove off the intruders--but at the cost of horrible wounds from Sonic.
Tark recovered and eventually began a region-wide sting on crime, ultimately washing away the remains of Mogul's empire. However, several people rose against GUN, and Tark had a hard time keeping them at bay. Killer and Ashes (Killer's friend) turned their backs to GUN and committed acts of terrorism against it. As Tark began to reach out to Capital City for possible alliance and/or other deals, he was approached by the Dark Legion with a number of trades, not all of them legal. Tark initially accepted the trades, then rejected them when he realized their criminal aspects. Mistakes were made and the two nations soon were near war, due to a botched spy mission Tark had initiated.
While this went on, a mysterious stone was unearthed and changed hands rapidly. Logan, Credence, a professor, and others searched out the meaning of this mysterious 'Paranga' stone.
Eventually things came to a head with the Dark Legion-Casinopolis row as Tark blew away a hidden Legion recruiting center in the heart of Casinopolis. He met with Juli-su and the Chaotix, and with their help, started a civil war which split the Dark Legion into two factions. The new faction, 'Yosuga', triumphed, and Tark quickly allied himself with them. With that, the war between Casinopolis and Dark Legion ended almost as soon as it had begun.
Tark and his star agent Pinion wiped the world clean of corrupt GUN's remnants, but all was not well. Tension grew as the Sonic Heroes and Tark began to disagree on many things. This culminated in Sonic being taken to court and Tark taking control of Emerl. Sonic went Super after Tark's lawyer proved that the hedgehog had been acting 'insane', and it only ended after Metal Genevieve stomped the hedgehog into submission. Tark simply moved on to his next plan--destroy Klein Toys.
In the meantime, Joan's group continued their research, encountering the occasional difficulty before then splitting up into two groups. Sometime after, Joan and a number of her companions departed to find yet some more tablets. The tablets and the stone would help them investigate some ancient tomb and find priceless artifacts.
Anthon persued Klein Toys, but soon found the revived organization was too busy fighting itself to be a true foe. Instead he spent his time gathering data on the feud going on inside Klein Toys, and discussing diplomacy with its leader, BAG. Anthon continued to furiously speak with everyone he could about this issue, to the point of absurdity.
Back on the expedition, Joan's group split up. One side investigated a mysterious ice cavern full of many tests, while another group investigated some sort of village.
Anthon continued his crazy travails. Thanks to his work, Klein Toys began to disintegrate, but a new foe, Genesis, appeared. Genesis tried to take Tark out in his own city, but Tark managed to survive the explosion. Genesis was the newest incarnation of Beangirl--and dead-set on annihilating all of Casinopolis. She worked with Search. Search somehow gained Tark's trust, even though Tark HATED machines...
Genesis continued to try to pick at Tark. She turned Killer against him, and killed someone close to Killer, but Tark managed to negotiate the danger of Killer away. Then a mysterious ghost named Seth told Anthon some information which made him suspect Search of being related to the Genesis problem. Genesis tried to turn Killer against Anthon again, but that failed... again. Search got in Anthon's good graces again after a weird exchange about Search being 'mad' at Genesis.
Genesis got desperate and went to poison a water factory--yet again, however, Anthon managed to avert catastrophe. Then, Genesis took hostages--and Anthon spoke so much that the Genesis unit he was talking to gave him the location of the hostages and lost its mind.
Genesis was not done yet; she infected Casinopolis with a virus. Genevieve was once again turned evil, and nearly smashed the town to bits. Anthon had to short out a huge generator to stop her. Then he had to work with his hated foes, the Sonic Heroes, to get the Master Emerald and 'heal' her.
Eventually, the answers behind these strange events came to light. Search had an island with which he was causing a mini-ice age on Mobius. He had created Genesis in order to deal with his foes. Genesis had aided him, but people like Killer and Anthon had defied attempts on their lives and sanity. Now everyone met on Search's island to discuss this. Search tried to unmask Anthon and Killer as brutal hypocrites, but neither fell for it. Anthon even refused to attack initially. Then Genesis came in and eventually everything went nuts, with Search losing his mind over Anthon's refusal to admit blame and Anthon and Genesis fighting one another.
Search created a gigantic monster to try and destroy Anthon, but his helicopters thwarted it. It blew itself up and destroyed most of the surface of the island in retaliation. Meanwhile, Dranar, Anone and others finally found out that the Master Emerald had been used to power the climate-altering machine Search was trying to use. They then healed Genevieve... returning her to her mobian self, as well as removing the damage she had taken from the virus incident.
Anthon continued his hatred of machines, though, and plotted to destroy Search, Genesis, and anything else which had an organization made up of machines. Search meanwhile tried to make sense of what happened, with the help of Echo (another Beangirl robot who was the 'peaceful' one.) Then Search and Genesis continued to plot Anthon's death, while Anthon plotted their deaths...
While this went on, Snively took over the Eggman empire from behind the scenes. Eggman was exiled to a remote island while Snively tried to pretend he was the 'True' Dr. Eggman. But even with the help from a rogue E-100 series named Rusty and a weird android, Snively just couldn't hold off Dr. Eggman. In the end, Eggman overpowered him and made him his servant yet again.
Time went on. Anthon made a false 'apology' for his 'deeds' in opposing the AIs, while the AIs prepared to negotiate with him. He then finally came to a truce with the AIs, though at the same time Pinion and Killer left GUN. So Anthon got Sally instead, and decided to enlist her help with potentially fending off AIs... and perhaps as a new GUN president.
Genesis isolated herself from the world, while Search angsted about not being able to kill Tark. Genesis was more bent on making some new super-energy technology that could blow up anyone that opposed her than fighting Tark, at the moment. Things got shaken up shortly after.
Some weird new virus appeared--one based off of 'Melissa', the originator of the Beangirl Virus. It infected Search and tried to infect Genesis, and spurred Anthon's wrath. Anthon helped get Sally elected to the head of GUN and immediately began work on counteracting the evil virus, as did Genesis. While Genesis had perfected her super-tech earlier, all she had done with it was give it to Tails. She feared it would destroy the world otherwise.
The virus progressed. It was Melissa's backup plan--to destroy the Bean Virus, and perhaps all technology. Everyone allied against it--Tark, Tails, Dranar, Darius, and Genesis. The virus infected Sanctuary and caused massive damage to Genesis and Search's holdings, while everyone hurried to create an antivirus for it. Eventually a cure was made, but it required an immense coordinated assault on bizarre super-tanks to destroy the Melissa virus. In the chaos, the super-energy Genesis had generated earlier was mostly lost.
Anthon rose through the ranks of GUN and eventually became Head Commander as a result of his anti-Beangirl virus tactics. However, Pinion left his service and two rogue agents, D&J, tried to get rid of him. He wasn't effected much by either, though, and continued his ascent to the top. He also created a tech-free brigade to battle technological threats with, after having seen the effects of the Beangirl Virus.
A new threat dawned on Mobius. After having recovered from Mogul's ignoble defeat, Logan was bent on reviving the Majin cause. At the same time, Dr. Robotnik decided to launch a full scale invasion of Mobius. He began to work on invading Station Square, while the various heroes prepared to oppose him. GUN stayed out of it, claiming that it was irrelevant to them. Besides, Eggman claimed he would leave GUN alone.
It was a lie, because Eggman had no problem shielding Logan from GUN. While Robotnik allowed the Majin to rebuild, he also helped flip Pinion away from Anthon's side. That was the last straw. Soon, GUN plotted to ally all of the anti-Robotnik factions together and then send them to retake Mobius from Robotnik.
All the while, a dragon named Kairn seized control over various Draconic territories. He had allied with Robotnik, and his goal, too, was to enslave the world under Robotnik's banner. Or perhaps his own. Whatever the reason, he caused strife among all of the dragon mobians while Eggman was causing strife for everyone else.

These were old logs Toby and co. commissioned eons ago. As a warning, they are neither WEB 14 nor do they represent modern day roleplaying here, nor to most of their plots mean anything today ICly. However they are here on a historical basis, so that we do not forget the past.
They come in two flavors: Filtered, which has been further cleaned up by my regexes, and Original, kept mostly to respect the work the original people did on it, and so one can see the ancient OOC comments as well. Click these links at your own risk.
