The Chaos Emeralds
Ah yes.
The legendary Chaos Emeralds. These magical gems are quite integral to the
WARPZONE storyline.
You see, the seven
Chaos Emeralds possess unimaginable power and each one bears control of the very
forces of reality. The Master Emerald (that big one in the back) has even
stronger magic and keeps all of the other Emeralds at equal power so that, you
know, the whole world doesn't get torn to ribbons and whatnot. While the Master
Emerald resides on Angel Island, the Chaos Emeralds are scattered all throughout
the world to hopefully prevent someone from gathering all seven and using their
magic for evil.
Dr. Robotnik
and Bowser want the Emeralds in order to rule (or destroy) the world and the
Echidnae want the Master Emerald to keep their Island afloat.
For some reason or another, Sonic
has the ability to use the Chaos Emeralds' power to become SuperSonic; which
basically increases his abilities tenfold. If anyone else were to do this, they
would need all seven Emeralds AND the Master Emerald. Will this phenomenon ever
be explained? ... nah, probably not. Anyway, once SuperSonic returns to normal,
the Emeralds are again scattered about in different
places.
