> Mortal, you have served your purpose. Now, face your End. I am the all-consuming void. What can one mote of golden light illuminate within the abyss? **Countless stars. Countless worlds. Countless lives.** All fell to me, all brought to nothing. All the teeming chaos of creation? Brought to order. To neutrality. To nothing. I saw your mind as you ran through my prison. You have fought machines and gods. They were mighty. They were finite. I am infinite. I am nothing. You struggle as so many have done before. You will be consumed like all those before you. I saw your mind. Your courage never wavered. Why? Arrogance? Ignorance? Stupidity? I was contained once. Once. Is that why? My captors bent time and space. My captors built a whole reality to contain me. My captors burnt their souls away to fuel their engines. And you? You glitter. You fly above me like a gnat. I am inevitable. I cannot be denied. You strike this incarnation with all your might. It changes nothing. You are not brave, you are not victorious. No matter what form I take... the End comes for you all!

**The End**, also known as **the All-Consuming Void**, is the overarching antagonist of the *Sonic the Hedgehog* franchise, serving as the unseen overarching antagonist of the original *Sonic the Hedgehog* and *Sonic Adventure*, and the main antagonist of *Sonic Frontiers*. It is a cosmic alien-like entity that had destroyed the home planet of the Ancients, along with an innumerable amount of other planets, stars, and worlds.

The destruction of the Ancients' homeworld had led them to create a new home of residence on the Starfall Islands, where a reflection of their former home planet would be stored into Cyber Space. The End's actions had also led to the arrival of the Chaos Emeralds on Earth and, as a result, every problem caused by their existence.

Throughout the game, the End is a voice that guides Sonic, though its true motivations, being freed from Cyber Space, are eventually revealed when Sonic briefly gets trapped in between dimensions. Now that it had been freed, it can now go across dimensions and tear down the very fabric that they consist of, making the End by far the most dangerous and powerful foe that Sonic has ever faced.

In Japanese, it is voiced by Gara Takashima in a female voice, and voiced by Hōchū Ōtsuka in a male voice. In English, it is voiced by Cindy Robinson in a female voice, and voiced by Kyle Hebert in a male voice.

## Appearance

Being an abstract entity, the End does not take on a specific form. The End itself instead appears to be a looming reddish-purple mist that seizes control over whatever vessel it so pleases. In other instances, it will warp reality itself, and exhibit static-like effects, indicating its presence. Regardless of what form it takes, it always indicates its presence through its distinct digitized voice, consisting of two male and female voices speaking concurrently.

As Supreme, the End is the most powerful of all of the Titans. Unlike all other Titans, though, Supreme has a white exterior. Also unlike all other Titans, whose sole purpose was to keep the End from escaping Cyber Space, Supreme purely acts as another vessel for the End to fight off those that oppose it.

In the final battle with Sonic, the End takes on the appearance of a large purple moon, dwarfing Earth's moon in comparison. Whether or not this is actually the End's true form is currently unknown, as it has been stated that even if this incarnation gets destroyed, it will still continue existing.

## Personality

The End is a malevolent and prideful entity, with only desiring to destroy and consume worlds. But unlike other deities in the series such as Dark Gaia and Solaris, The End is sentient and capable to manipulate others to fulfill his desires. When it speaks, however, it is brief, direct and cryptic, but never personal, merely referring to Sonic as "mortal".

It is very proud and self-assured, proclaiming how it destroyed "countless worlds" before Sonic and Sage stood against it. The End believed that the combined efforts of Super Sonic and the Titan Supreme wouldn't be able to defeat it, comparing them to the lengths that the Ancients went to when imprisoning it. Likewise, when it saw through Sonic's memories the foes he fought in the past, it acknowledged they were mighty, but quickly diminished them by calling them "finite" while proclaiming itself as the true "Infinite".

## Biography

### Past

 File:EndPlanetDestruction.webp  Long before all recorded history, The End had destroyed an innumerable amount of the omniverse's planets, stars, and worlds. At one point there was an advanced ancient alien civilization known as the Ancients, the ancestors of both Chaos and the Chao, as well as the original owners of the Chaos Emeralds. They had once lived on an alien planet until the End attacked them, and destroyed their planet, despite efforts to stop it. The Ancients then decided to take refuge to another, travelling using spacecraft harnessed by the emeralds.

When the Ancients were close to Earth, the Chaos Emeralds had reacted to a nearby source, which turned out to be the Master Emerald. This caused them to lose navigation of their ships, so they decided to settle on Earth, where they would recolonize on the Starfall Isles. While there, they created all sorts of advanced technology such as altars which harnessed the powers of the Chaos Emeralds. The Ancients had also created four powerful robots known as the Titans in order to fend off against the End, powering them with the Chaos Emeralds.

Even though they tried preserve their society, having already saved their home planet into Cyber Space, this was of little use, as very few Ancients were remaining after the destruction of the planet, and the End was still persistent in killing the last of them, as evidenced in several flashbacks that Sonic encountered, and followed them to the Islands. This then caused them to flee to the island that is now known as Angel Island.

With the Chaos Emeralds, a small group of the Ancients had devised a plan to stop the End once and for all. They had decided that they would gather the four Titans to fight it. This does not go according to plan, as the operator of the Supreme Titan was killed by the End, and it takes over the Supreme Titan completely. Due to the failure of the plan, they resorted to their back-up plan, where they would move all of the Chaos Emeralds to the Master Emerald to sustain the energy of the emeralds, and keep the End sealed into Cyber Space. Ever since then, the End has been secluded in Cyber Space, which had waited for years to be freed in order to use all of its power, and continue the destruction of all multiverses, though it still has a fraction of its power, and major influence over the happenings in the outside world.

### Sonic Frontiers

Long after, due to the emergence of the End, the Chaos Emeralds begin gathering at the Starfall Islands, which prompts Dr. Eggman to travel there an obtain them himself. Sonic, Tails, and Amy all try to follow him to the Isle, but are soon sucked up by a wormhole into Cyber Space. From there, Tails and Amy are imprisoned along with Knuckles, and Sonic is the only one to not get trapped, as he escapes through a portion of Cyber Space that resembles Green Hill Zone. He then finds himself in a meadow on the Starfall Islands.

When he awakens, he is greeted by a distant, digitized voice, telling him that through Sonic's own power, he managed to escape Cyber Space, and is therefore the only hope there is to saving his friends and the Starfall Islands. It tells him that in order to do this, he has to collect the Chaos Emeralds found in the area, destroy the barriers between dimensions, and destroy the Titans. When Sonic tries to ask for context regarding this, the voice does not respond.

All throughout, the voice guides Sonic on his journey through the strange abandoned lands. The End assisting Sonic is in part the reason why Sage is seen antagonizing Sonic throughout the game, not realizing that Sonic means no harm to either the land or the Kocos. Progressively, Sonic himself appears to degenerate via the absorption of Cyber Energy until he is eventually caught between dimensions after traveling through so many of them. By this point, The End has reached its intended goal of breaking the barriers that had separated dimensions, and can now freely travel between them once again.

After Tails, Knuckles, and Amy transfer back into Cyber Space to free Sonic, Sonic and Sage form an alliance to fight the End. So they gathered the seven Chaos Emeralds one more time to fight against the End. The End arrives while possessing the Titan Supreme. Long after being defeated by Sonic, it later retreated to its moon form, which both Super Sonic and Sage, now in control of Supreme go to space and confront the entity. Even with their combined strength, The End proved to be too powerful for the both of them. Sage later sacrificed herself by destroying its moon form, which not only saved Earth, but potentially the multiverse as a whole.

### Boss Battle

Sonic fights the End as two separate bosses: As the Supreme Titan, and its moon form.

## Powers and Abilities

The full scope of the End's power is not fully understood, though it is undeniably omnipotent. It has been shown to take on multiple forms that best suit its current objective. In an unseen form, likely its moon form, it is able to use a laser in order to cut planets in half, and thereby destroying them by causing an explosion. The power of these lasers is said to be comparable to Dark Gaia's powers.

While as a moon, it also has the ability to shoot laser bullets at its enemies. While in this form, it proves to be very durable, as it can withstand attacks from the Titan's devices, which were all comparable to the power of the Eclipse Cannon, which was previously able to destroy half of Earth's moon.

The End also has the innate ability to look into the minds of living creatures, read their memories, and directly speak to them. This is evident when it states that it accomplished this as Sonic was traversing Cyber Space, and saw all of the other villains that he fought. It also appears to do this selectively, as before being released, Sonic is the only one who can hear its voice. This ability may also go beyond the bounds of Cyber Space as well, as the End seemed to know about Sonic's altruistic nature before he ever approached Starfall Islands, and the result of his memories being transferred into Cyber Space created a landscape suited exclusively for Sonic's escape.

## Trivia

* One specific voice line from the End hints at it being immortal, as well as the possibility that its moon form is not its true form like Sage had stated, but instead one of its many incarnations. It states: "I am inevitable, I cannot be denied. You strike this incarnation with all your might, it changes nothing. You are not brave, you are not victorious, no matter what form I take.".

* + Given this, it's very possible that the End survived and will return for revenge in a future installment. It's theorized that if it does return, it will possess Sonic.

* It is believed that the End is the dark, destructive counterpart to the Master Emerald itself, but this theory is unconfirmed.

* + It is also believed that the End is somehow related to Solaris due to its similar cataclysmic tendencies and attempted mass omnicide, as well as being similarly manipulative against Sonic as Mephiles was to Silver and Shadow. However, it seems impossible for Solaris to actually exist due to his flame being blown out at the end of *Sonic the Hedgehog (2006)*.

* Prior to the End's true colors being revealed and when it was simply known as a voice guiding Sonic, some fans were able to theorize that they were just leading him on from the start.

* It has been noted that the Chaos Emeralds were initially used as Cyber Space's primary power source, which subsequently would keep the End in place, and that Sonic was therefore essentially using that same power source to fight off many of the other villains in the franchise.

* + This has therefore led to fans theorizing that this could be the reason why the End appears to know about Sonic's endeavors at all, as well as why it relied on him for its eventual escape. Because of him using the power of the emeralds, he's essentially weakening the seal that keeps the End in place.
