## Backstory

It was said Sliver the snake god hybrid was the evil one in the ancient writings in the Echidna’s scrolls. He brought madness upon each Echidna who stood up against him, he was taught under the echidna’s teachings as a small boy and was treated as an outcast had a small crush on Earthia but she was taken by Roithon. Over his years of training under the echidna’s he soon learned their weak points and skills. One day he was finally going to confess to Earthia on how he felt about her until Roithon appeared and she seemed to be more happier with Roithon. Sliver felt his cold blooded heart split in half as he had no one to love, so it filled his heart with rage and he wanted to kill Earthia for betraying his love for her.

He soon lost control of his form and he heard a python speak to him. He was confused at first why he could understand the snake. Then it came to him, he was a really a snake himself.

One day he went to the strange temple that appeared into the deep dark woods, he felt a strange shift in his heart as he soon became the killer he was meant to be. Over the years of being inside the temple for 30 years he was the snake god to snakes who were like him, but smaller. He felt his cold vengeance upon the Echidna’s as his enemy as well as the Komodos army that were killers themselves.

It was until his 3,000 year of snake life. The echidna females and children were offered up to him as a sacrifices to cleanse his thirst of destroy those wretched race he called his family. It was one Echidna who changed his life of his cold hearted heart. He was struck by Marisa The Echidna’s beauty. Out of all the sacrifices, he only spared Marisa’s life which made his army shocked. Has he had a change of heart?

## **The Spear Of Light**

光の槍 -Hikari no yari

*spear of light writing (legend):*

*" only those of pure heart, strongwilled may enter and take hold of light to vanquish the evil one in the darkest hour, may take hold the weapon, the spear of light to bring peace to all who live in fear and rage." - Snake Inscriptions*

The spear of light is a crafted weapon that was said to be created by Marisa's father himself, Rothion The Echidna. but he only found it.  no one truly knows on how this weapon came to be.

The spear of light is a legendary weapon that was passed down from generations of Marisa's family and was used for the good of their home. rothion used the spear the first time to kill King Cobra.  King cobra was killed only temporality and was sealed within his tomb which seem to have warped away from the dying planet and later was founded by a few scientists on planet mobuis.  The spear of light also seems to be located somewhere deep within the snake temple.  the spear can be used for evil and of good.  Only those who are chosen may be the one to weild it.  Marisa can use the spear and unlock its full power.

Legend has it, *that only the spear of light,  can truly kill King Cobra and bring peace.*

sonic seem to have been chosen as the new weilder of the spear,  or maybe one of his ancestors has the same bloodline as marisa's family.

The Spear  cannot be destroyed,  its an unbreakle weapon that is only used once and only use to kill  the king,  once at full power after unlocking the spear's great power. It can end the pain.

### **Where To Find The Spear**

The Spear of Light can be found within the Snake Temple.  the only one that knows where its hidden  is Marisa The Echidna.

    The spear will reveal itself to those who are chosen. Where its true location,  is clearly unknown. The spear can  only be taken from its altar for those who are the pure of heart, has the same bloodline within  the cobra family,  or are chosen by the spear itself.

## Chaos Sliver

 File:Chaos sliver.png  hybrid and he also has  the ability to use Marisa's  Chaos emerald to  link up with the Master Emerald and  summon powerful  snake warriors from the past to adie his army.  He's a little tough to take down.  It took Sonic and the power of  the egg carrier to even weaken his  barrier that he used to protect himself.

*"Chaos Sliver only appeared once.  The only glimpse  that this form appeared, when Marisa's father  came to free her and*  was  later killed by  this form.  it could only be seen in shadow. Only  his  white eyes peered through the gashing smoke."

This Form also made a reappearance  in Sonic The Hedgehog: Strike Of The King Cobra.  He was about to Attack Knuckles and kill him,  but it was cancelled  in mid-transformation  by Sonic and the legendary weapon,  the Spear Of Light.

In the End  he  finally was able to transform into this form fully and using his cloaking like skin, was able  to  grab Marisa the Echidna  with  leaving  sonic and friends  shocked.  Kunckles quickly  rush after  Marisa where she was  dragged  to the tomb where he was slealed.  Marisa  was  drowned with fear from Sliver's claws  holding her down, trying to pull her down into  his tomb for her to be  locked inside with him.  But it failed and he was sealed forever, leaving his  beloved  queen.

now the temple  was sealed  once again...
