This is a summary page of all the fanfictions, games and crucial events involved in the Skyblade Continuity. All of them are in roughly chronological order. Naturally, this contains major spoilers.
==Pre-2018==

Involved Characters: Guardians of the Chronosabre, King.
===Disaster Club Act 0===
Main Characters: [Unnamed], Rugal, Thundereye, Drittenbac.
Supporting Characters: Austin, Nash, Rider, [Unnamed:Katana], [Unnamed: Shuriken], Gemma, Ringmaster.
The story starts with two travelers arriving at Disaster Club: Austin, an explorer examining the culture of Westopolis, and [Unnamed], who is on the trail of a man named Drittenbac. Ringmaster agrees to allow them in as long as they'll fight in the club for a while. The two participate in fights in the Level 1 and Level 2 arenas. Austin fights Rugal and Thomas Paramount and befriends them. Meanwhile, [Unnamed] duels a cyborg called Nash, who he defeats despite it being a very close fight.
Ringmaster announces a tournament with a large cash prize. The tournament would start with a series of free-for-alls, and then the top 8 would enter a tourney, with the winner taking the cash prize. [Unnamed], Rugal, Thomas, Austin and Nash sign up quickly, along with a samurai by the name of [Unnamed:Katana]. Soon after, Rider arrives with his two bodyguards [Unnamed:Shuriken] and Gemma. Rider wishes to use the tournament as a testing ground for the newly created Gemma, and also is looking for people to join as special agents of G.U.N.
Shortly before the tournament is due to start, a winged wolf joins, politely apologizing for how late he has. As soon as he signs up, [Unnamed] attacks him, resulting in a fight that spills over into the Pit while a fight between Nash and [Unnamed:Katana] is still happening. Ringmaster breaks up the fight and defeats both of them easily, and Sam Stag successfully plays the whole situation off as all part of the show, resulting in the crowd cheering. Ringmaster reprimands the two wolves, and [Unnamed] explains that Drittenbac is his brother, who he's seeking to kill. Ringmaster tells [Unnamed] that if he wants to fight Drittenbac, he'd have to go through the tournament or once again face his wrath. Knowing not to anger the Ringmaster, both agree.
Soon after, the free for all takes place in the Pit. During the chaos, Drittenbac and [Unnamed] fight, and while Drittenbac starts to gain the upper hand, it is broken up by Thomas and Rugal, who are making sure they both get through the free for all together. By the end of the fight, the last men standing are [Unnamed], Rugal, Thomas, Austin, Nash, [Unnamed:Katana] and Gemma, and they progress to the tournament. Gemma reports back to Rider, noting that several of the combatants would both be excellent agents, but wishing to continue onwards to make sure.

Supporting Characters: Tails, Knuckles, Rouge, Omega, Blaze, Eggman, Iblis.
===Sonic Forces: Kingdom Come===
Main Characters: Shadow, Team Sonic, Infinite, Eggman, Kai.
Supporting Characters: The Resistance, Vendeta, Blaze, Professor Pickle, Kabletech, Rouge, Omega, Replicas, Eggman Empire.
The story picks up directly after Sonic Forces Episode Shadow, where Sonic is defeated by Infinite in Sunset. Shadow attacks Infinite, but is forced into hiding with Rouge after knowledge of the Shadow replica gets out. After arriving in the city and battling Eggman’s robots, Sonic’s friends are eventually forced into hiding in a hideout used by the Chaotix during the Black Arms invasion, turning the hideout into the Resistance base. Several squads of G.U.N soldiers are sent into the city, but are quickly slaughtered. The remnants join the Resistance except for one man: Kai, who fills the role of the player character in this continuity. He hides alone, followed by a hallucination of Infinite and trying to avoid Eggman’s patrols of the city, which are now rounding up civilians who didn’t hide with the Resistance.
After Infinite returns to the Chemical Plant, Eggman takes the Phantom Ruby to repair it, leading to Infinite hallucinating his dead squad members before being giving a prototype by Orbot due to Eggman wanting to use them up. Eggman also taunts Sonic with his success, using the Phantom Ruby to torture him. While Infinite is out of the fighting, the Shadow replica leads Eggman’s forces into the United Federation, obliterating G.U.N’s forces. Espio teleports the Commander away from the base while Gemerl and Silver guide the remnants of G.U.N’s aircraft to the Resistance base. Meanwhile, Shadow uses his Chaos Powers to call Infinite to his location and tries to defeat the jackal but fails miserably, being forced to teleport away in bad shape.
In Sunset, Kai remains on the run from Eggman’s forces. He tries to attack a patrol of Egg Pawns, but his hand is shaking too much and he misses all of his shots, getting captured in the process. Meanwhile, Westopilis is taken by Eggman after a short siege, with Kable Enforcement holding the city for longer than anyone expected. Kable strikes Eggman a deal: he will provide Eggman with his weapons and knowledge of G.U.N’s tech, in return for his freedom. Eggman agrees, although Kable simply wants the alliance to save his own skin. The Resistance also rapidly gain in manpower, as many Kable Enforcement soldiers defect during this time and being with them several advanced weapons. Tails also brings his Tornado III mech. The Resistance elects Knuckles as their leader, and although he’s apprehensive he steps up to the challenge.
During this time, the Babylon Rogues steal the Master Emerald under everyone’s noses, and Wave sets it up to generate an energy shield around Monopole. Jet uses the energy shield to bribe his way into position as the Mayor of Monopole, and asks Storm to raid Meteortech’s old facilities so he can assemble an army for himself. Meanwhile, the Resistance plan their first strike against Eggman, aiming to attack the Chemical Plant before his hold on the world can settle. Kai is taken to a prison camp at Arsenal Pyramid, being forced to work on making Eggman's robots while hallucinations of Infinite taunt him.

Involved Characters: Kable, Deerthorn, Dr. Param.
A Kabletech agent by the name of Deerthorn send Kable an email detailing the destruction of a laboratory in Apotos, and contains the last diary entries of one of the scientists, Dr. Param, in the email. The diary details the scientists working to find a way to limit power gene growth, despite reservations from Kabletech’s board of directors and the knowledge of where the genetic material is coming from. The scientists find Dark Gaia energy limits the growth and develop limiters to stop the growth, but are unable to find test subjects, leading to Dr. Param to volunteer himself in the final entry.

===Kable Spin-off===
Main Characters: Kable, Cyborg Squadron, Poisonmaster.
Supporting Characters: Sarthel.
The story starts with Kable talking on a chat show making a statement about rumours that he kidnapped children with power genes, stating that his company's assets were used and he had no involvement, and that he would also be giving the families of the kidnapped children compensation. A few days afterwards, Kable meets with a businessman called Vernon Grey, who lets Kable know of an auction happening in Empire City which is rumoured to be selling Dark Gaia monsters. Kable considers them a legitmate threat and travels to the auction with Bladedancer and Wraith in disguise.
While Kable watches the auction, Bladedancer sneaks backstage to find out what’s going on and Wraith keeps lookout, using his intangibility to float trough the building. Kable watches as several Deep Nightmares are sold off to bidders. Meanwhile, Bladedancer watches a mysterious female white Mobian hedgehog with a cloak over her right arm and a mask covering part of her face as she walks through one of the building’s back corridors. Bladedancer follows her until she comes to 2 security guards who are blocking the door to backstage. When they refuse to let her through, the hedgehog unsheathes half of her katana and the security guards both collapse, having been stabbed in the chest despite the hedgehog not having fully drawn her blade. She looks around and tells Venus she can come out now, referring to Bladedancer by her real name.
Bladedancer attacks the hedgehog, but is quickly overwhelmed as she seems to avoid every single blow without even trying, and can strike Bladedancer without even drawing her katana. Wraith arrives and attacks the hedgehog, and she immediately vanishes before Wraith can even land a blow. Kable continues to watch the auction, but is attacked by the woman who fought Bladedancer, being very nearly killed by her, but something forces her to retreat. 
After the auction ends due to the surprising turn of events, Kable and Deerthorn look into the auction's benefactor, and discovers it is being run by a person named Poisionmaster.

===Mindtaker===
Main Characters: Powers Club, Mask, Sasha.
Supporting Characters: Sarthel
The story starts with the final scene from Disaster Club, with Natalie waking up and looking in the mirror to discover her face partially altered to look like the Mask Parasite. She then uses her powers to enter the Mask’s mind and discovers that, although it is still intelligent due to absorbing information from Natalie’s mind, it hasn’t grasped it’s powers properly due to only having been alive for a few hours. Natalie prepares to remove the parasite in the same way she did to Beautyface’s, but the Mask eventually manages to strike a deal with her: she would keep it and all of it’s powers under the condition it was under her control. Natalie agrees to this, and she returns to the real world before falling asleep again.
Natalie wakes up the next morning to discover her powers are stronger, able to target multiple people at once. In addition, she also seems to be much prettier and also physically stronger. During breakfast, Sasha asks Natalie about what happened and they discuss the events of Disaster Club. While Sasha is glad that she helped defeat Beautyface, she reminds her that Kable is a strong enough enemy by himself and she didn't need to make more. When asked about Vendeta, Sasha concludes onnce more that Vendeta has changed entirely, which Natalie reluctantly agrees with. Sasha can also tell something is different about Natalie, but is uncertain about what.
She meets with the Powers Club later that day to discuss the events of the previous night with the others. Rugal and Angel both put on brave faces, but Natalie's telepathy tells her that they're both still shaken by what they went through. John and Carl are both annoyed they didn't get involved to help, but are glad the other are safe. 
A few days later, Natalie and Angel spar. Angel notices that Natalie is stronger than before, and Natalie accidentally hits Angel hard enough to send her flying across the room, still not used to her own strength. While she attributes it to a lucky shot, Angel is less than convinced. To avoid things getting more awkward, Angel tells Natalie her parents were interersted to meet her, especially seeing Natalie had helped save Angel's life multiple times. Natalie agrees to meet them.
Natalie continues going to school, but also messes with her new enhanced psychic powers.
===Insane Utopia===
Main Characters: Dragen, Infinite, Null.
Supporting Characters: Brooklyn, Marcee.
The plot starts directly after Dragen’s final talk with Marcee in Disaster Club. After teleporting away, he appears outside a treehouse in the jungle, owned by Brooklyn Waterfield, a young woman who can create clones of herself across the world that she regularly uses to spy on organizations so she can act as an information broker, and also so she can go to multiple parties simultaneously. Dragen asks her to find Infinite’s location, and although she tries to get him to pay, she reluctantly agrees to do the work for free. The morning after, Brooklyn tells Dragen Infinite is located in the mountains of Icecap, which he teleports to next.
Dragen finds Infinite in a cave. The jackal has gone insane due to his consciousness being fused with that of the Phantom Ruby, a side effect of being used as the power source of the Death Egg Robot. He refers to himself in the plural and shifts form constantly. Infinite asks Dragen to come with him to Shamar. A mysterious force known as Utopia's Army has set up there, and has a link to the Phantom Ruby. He hopes they can remove it, and also heal Dragen's powers in turn. Running out of options with how to deal with his powers, Dragen agrees to go with Infinite.
===Vendeta the Hedgehog Volume 1===
Main Characters: Vendeta, King, Glass, Nethilis.
Supporting Characters: Gatis, Assassin’s Guild, Vendeta Blue, Figurehead, Powers Club, Kable, Sasha, Gabriella.
After returning to Kryte following Disaster Club, Vendeta begins experiencing flashbacks of his time with Sasha and the infant Natalie. Unable to accept these memories as his past, he leaves Kryte to find more information about what Nethilis did to him, and to see if he can restore his memory fully.
==== Imperfect Utopia ====
Traveling the universe, Vendeta arrives on the planet of Ats'Pyoid, a utopian planet. While searching the planet, he finds nothing about Nethilis. However, he meets a Pyoidian doctor named Gatis, who begs him to help destroy the Pyoidian Government. Gatis explains that the Pyoidian government is a totalitarian dictatorship and he needs help finding material to prove their corruption, but Vendeta is doubtful considering what he's seen and leaves Gatis be. While searching for more info on Nethilis, Gatis is kidnapped by the government and sentenced to death for treason. Confused, Vendeta begins his own inquiries, but is quickly apprehended by government agents for being one of Gatis' accomplices, the agents gassing Vendeta and knocking him out before he has a chance to react..
Vendeta is imprisoned in a private cell and is visited by Prime Minister Negartia. Negartia questions him on his involvement with Vendeta, and the hedgehog tells him that he was merely passing through the planet while looking for something else. He then berates Negartia for his stupidity in capturing him, saying if he had let him follow Gatis' leads and get to the information before he did then he would have left the planet in peace. He is about to use his psychokinesis to attack Negartia and break out, but he soon discovered he can't harm the Prime Minister. Negartia explains the government controls the planet using a gas that coats the atmosphere, causing Ats'Pyoid to appear utopian to anyone who enters the planet when in truth it's a wreck. However, as the gas takes effect the target's mental capacity becomes affected, not wanting to leave the utopia or fight back, and also making the hallucinations more personal. Gatis is one of the few with an acquired resistance to the gas, and thus needs to be executed. Negartia leaves Vendeta alone, mockingly asking him to break out of the cell, and telling him Gatis will be cared for.
Gatis is visited by a guard who is going to take him to be executed, but Gatis refuses and slowly breaks apart the logic of Ats'Pyoid, causing the guard to come to a realisation about the world's nature and collapsing in a sobbing wreck. The guard tells him Vendeta's location and he goes to find the hedgehog. However, when he does he finds the gas is starting to get into Vendeta's system, and he is starting to believe he has never lived outside of Ats'Pyoid. Once Gatis snaps him out of it, they start wondering if they can synthesis a cure. Vendeta wonders if he can create a vaccine from Gatis' antibodies. Gatis theorises they can place the antibodies in the machine the government use for dispersing the gas, but that they will need to get to that machine first.
Vendeta and Gatis fight their way through the parliament, but are hindered by Vendeta's lack of psyckonesis and his continued disillusionment with reality. They manage to get weapons from guards, but soon the alarm is raised and others start searching for them. They manage to reach the machine where the gas is dispersed, and Gatis manages to extract a vial of his blood that contains the antibodies. However, Negartia arrives with guards, and he orders Vendeta to kill Gatis. At this order, Vendeta's mind is subsumed by the gas and he attacks Gatis, batting the vial away and pinning him to the floor, but is unable to kill him due to Vendeta fighting back. The guards rush to get the vial, but Vendeta momentarily gets a hold of himself and attacks them. Gatis grabs the vial and injects it into Vendeta, allowing him to use his psychokinesis and easily defeat the guards. Vendeta restrains Negartia and allows Gatis to release the antibodies into the atmosphere.
Over the next few weeks, Vendeta helps reconstruct both Ats'Pyoid society and infrastructure while he searches for clues about Nethilis. Unable to find information, he visits the imprisoned Negartia to ask him what he knows. While Negartia initially mocks Vendeta, the hedgehog wastes no time in threatening him. Negartia reveals the gas was created by Nethilis, who seemed fascinated with the concept of controlling and manipulating the behaviour of sentient beings. While he knows little about Nethilis' other projects, he believes there was another project in the Altroid Mining Colony. Vendeta thanks him coldly. He then visit Gatis, commends him for his role in saving his world, and leaves. Negartia smiles, knowing he's sent the Guardian to his doom.
==== Feeling Blue ====
After checking in on the Chronosabre, Vendeta travels to Altroid, a system of mining colonies on an astroid belt orbiting a white dwarf. 
==== Domain of the King ====
==== Bloodhound ====
==== The War Against Yourself ====
After finally obtaining King and bringing him back to Kryte, Vendeta trawls the robot's memory for anything about Nethilis. He discovers that, with the Guardian Civil War failing and the death of Grey fresh on his mind, Nethilis had implanted a chip in Vendeta's head that was slowly pulling apart his memories and altering his personality, molding him into the perfect Guardian. Additionally, a backup of Nethilis' memories were stored in Vendeta's mind, and would activate in the event Vendeta went awry or if he physically attempted to remove the chip. As such, Vendeta reverse engineers King's telepathy tech so he can go into his own mind and wipe out Nethilis' control at the source.

Eventually, he is sent to target a man named Drittenbac, although his employer withholds why he wants Dean to kill the winged wolf. Dean gets the drop on Drittenbac but is defeated by him handily. However, instead of killing Dean, Drittenbac offers him a job.
Drittenbac reveals he is the head of an organisation known as the Shaomadoran, with the aim of creating a world where people with power genes are treated equal to those without, and asking for Dean to help him with that. While initially reluctant and skeptical, Dean agrees with Drittenbac's sentiment and agrees to work with him. Drittenbac then reveals the person who had sent him to kill him was a rogue member of the Shaomadoran and wishes for Dean to bring him in, worrying he might make knowledge of the organisation widespread before they were ready. Dean accepts the job and begins hunting down his former employer.

==Non-Canon/Cancelled==
===Merriment (short story)===
Involved Characters: Vendeta, Glass
===Stylish action game===
There was a plan to create a stylish action game based around a Mask invasion of Earth that would be foreshadowed in the ADKON sequel. Gameplay would revolve around swapping between the Powers Club members and using their individual powers and roles (Natalie a balanced fighter, Rugal a tank, Angel a glass cannon and Carl as support) to create stylish combos and clear out enemies. DLC with Infinite and Sasha Walker was also planned. However, the project was cancelled due to not fitting the spirit of ADKON, being less slice-of-life focused and more superhero-ish.
Concepts for the game eventually led to the creation of Bladeware’s Shiki Harada, a stylish action game focusing on an invasion by similar beings and Shiki herself using a katana and having several moves based on the special moves planned for Natalie and Sasha.
===Cold===
Cold was a fanfiction intended to be written around the same time as ADKON. It would follow Ice's first days, where he was taken in by university student and secret vigilante Johnathon Persona, as well as his roommates Venus McCarthy and Matthew (no last name given). Ice would develop his overly simplistic sense of justice from his nights fighting Kable with John's hero persona, not realising who he was. Eventually, Ice would discover some secret about Matthew that led the sentient block of ice to kill him, leading to a showdown between him and John's evil persona that destroyed the flat. The epilogue would show Venus awaking in Kabletech Tower as Bladedancer and Kable explaining the situation from his very biased veiwpoint, leading to Bladedancer commanding the Cyborg Squadron.
The project was cancelled as ADKON took precedent. However, the planned plot is still canon and would later be revealed by John in exposition.
