Special Stages (Blue Blur)

The Special Stage is a connecting dimensions where the Great God and Seven Gods were born. It is where many multiverse can be seen and gained access to, and where the Chaos Emeralds are secured to. Not only are the Chaos Emeralds created here, but so is the Master Emerald, a powerful jewel that cannot be manipulated or truly destroyed by anyone. It's an area that appears in Mac the Writer's epic saga, Blue Blur, and made few relevant appearances in Freedom Planet and Codename: Avalanche.
== History ==
=== The Birth of Existence ===
The Special Stage was created by the vessel-less Great God when he was born alongside his brothers and sisters, the Seven Gods. He, alongside his siblings, created many planets, stars, galaxies, and universes, and contained every one of them in each of their own orbs known as multiverses. In order to maintain balance to all multiverses, they need a source of power and order. The Seven Gods each created one of the seven Chaos Emeralds, and the Great God created the Master Emerald to unify the Chaos Emeralds.
=== The Wrath of Mammoth Mogul ===
The Gods have sworn to never intervene with the Multiverse, no matter the circumstances they each face. That rule was set to allow free will to the living beings of each multiverses, and prevent possible paradoxes from happening. There were great evils in each multiverses, but the Gods never intervene, and the problems were resolved thanks to the heroes in each multiverses. However, one villain stood above the rest, and became even more powerful than the Great God himself.
Mammoth Mogul, a prehistoric Mobian from billions of years ago, accidentally stumbled across the Master Emerald's shrine, where he discovered the legendary diamond itself. He was the only one who managed to absorb part of its power (which nobody has done before and since), and became immortal and powerful. Using it for his need of destruction and taking over the world, he managed to conquer all of Prehistoric Mobius, and went ahead to take over other parts of the multiverse he lives in. When he was deemed too powerful by the Gods, they were forced to break the rule they sworn to stand by, and intervened Mogul from further chaos.
However, they were outmatched by his incredible power, in which he can destroy the Great God if he wanted to. In fact, he was going to when the Gods showed up, but as a last resort, the Great God and the Seven Gods were forced to banish him in the Emptyverse, where he can never leave ever again. Because of the Emptyverse's lack of time and space, Mogul became powerless, and can only ever use his ludicrous power within the Emptyverse. Since then, nobody, no matter how vile they are, has ever come close to excel the Great God's powers, like Mogul did, giving Mogul a sense of intimidation from him, that even the most cruelest man shivers before him.

=== Star Posts ===
One of the more easier ways for anyone to gain access through the Special Stage is through the Star Post. With enough B-Rings, one can access the Special Stage through the Star Post and can see the many multiverses for himself/herself. Although they cannot change the multiverses' matters, they can take one Chaos Emerald away before being warped back to the multiverse they came from. The Star Post can also bring them back to where they came from by simply walking towards it again.
=== Multiverses ===
Where each universes, with its planets, stars and galaxies, are contained, these spherical orbs contain the many necessary life and existence, and are kept safe in the Special Stages. No one, no matter how powerful they are, can crush these orbs, but they can enter it if they want to. However, it is generally not advised to do so, as getting into another multiverse will have the Special Stage register one as a part of said multiverse, and with the many orbs, they will most likely never return to their home multiverse.
== Notable Multiverses ==
=== Canon ===
==== Blue Blur ====
Where the Special Stages made their first appearance. In Blue Blur: Curse of Mobius, when Sonic, Cosmo, Tails, Amy and Sticks entered the Special Stage for the first time to search for the third Chaos Emerald, Tails briefly explains what the Special Stage is, and loosely mentions about an all-powerful being trapped in this world. It appears time after time with each entry in the Blue Blur saga, and it's even where Mammoth Mogul makes his first full appearance.
==== Codename: Avalanche ====
Unlike Blue Blur, the Special Stage is only shown a very few times in Codename: Avalanche. Once was when Knuckles shows Kala to the Special Stage in order to get one of the Chaos Emerald he has hidden; the second time was when Kano was forced to enter the Emptyverse for a meeting with Mogul when he failed to kill Rio when he temporarily possessed one of Zarex's friends' body.
==== Freedom Planet (2017 film) ====
The Special Stage only appears once in Freedom Planet, and doesn't make another appearance since, though Mogul has been mentioned time after time by Lord Brevon. The moment it appears was when Brevon discussed with Mogul that his men had successfully taken the Kingdom Stone, and Mogul gave Brevon a Dimensional Rift Chip to bring the Kingdom Stone in the Emptyverse and bypass the regular entrance's powers to prevent powerful sources like the Kingdom Stone from entering the Emptyverse.
=== Non-Canon ===
==== SegaSonic ====
The game canon has been referred to briefly a few times during the cinematic universe, namely in Blue Blur and Codename: Avalanche. However, despite the different design, the Special Stage is heavily inspired by that in the games, namely the classic games from the Sega Genesis.
Despite that, Codename: Avalanche can be considered an alternate continuity to the SegaSonic canon. However, seeing how it is an alternate continuity, it's arguable a different multiverse from the game canon.
==== The New Hero ====
Like Codename: Avalanche, The New Hero is also an alternate continuity to the game canon. However, unlike Codename: Avalanche, it's non-canon because Mac felt it wouldn't fit the Blue Blur Cinematic Universe, and would be redundant alongside Codename: Avalanche. Although it has been mentioned and referred to a few times during the Blue Blur saga, and once in Freedom Planet.
