Dr. Eggman (Exeller)

* current
* demonized
* SOH (Normal, Old)

**Doctor Ivo "Eggman" Robotnik** (formerly **Doctor Ovi Kintobor**), is one of the main protagonists of the Spirits of Hell series. He is also the main antagonist of the *Sonic the Hedgehog* franchise as a whole.

Robotnik is a major protagonist in Sonic.exe: The Spirits of Hell and a minor protagonist in Sally.exe: The Whisper of Soul. He is the main antagonist of the *Sonic the Hedeghog* franchise and is Sonic's arch-nemesis (but former friend), who was once a good man, but became a villain after losing his memory in a lab accident. Robotnik is a flamboyant evil genius who is never discouraged by his numerous defeats (mainly at the hands of Sonic and his friends) and constantly hatches a near-endless supply of evil plots, from turning Flickies and Mobians into his Badniks to mechanizing and ruling over Mobius with an iron fist.

Following the appearance of Exeller and his threat to Mobius, Robotnik became one of the six victims who was hunted down by him so that his soul could be used in a ritual to for Exeller to regain his true form, and formed a reluctant alliance with the other victims in order to save his own skin. While Robotnik is not as evil as he appears to be, his immature and self-centered deeds have occasionally placed the other victims in danger so that he could save his own skin. Despite this, however, he eventually joined the other victims in defeating Exeller and saving Sonic for good. He is played by DarkBox, who also plays Exeller, Sonic, and Knuckles.

## History

### Past

The formerly kind doctor, Kintobor, was working on Sonic on an experiment with the Chaos Emeralds. However, this all backfired and exploded right in front of his face. As a result, he'd absorbed the negative energy of the emeralds and became much more fatter and suddenly changing to his classic game design. He then angrily tells Sonic to leave his lab. He then gets the idea to become Dr. Robotnik.

At the ending of Final Zone from *Sonic 1*, Robotnik is seen being grabbed by Sonic in his Egg Mobile, with Sonic upset, saying he wanted to help Robotnik. Robotnik is then let go, telling Sonic that he was a fool.

During a memory fragment with Tails, he is seen capturing Tails and running off with him. In a memory fragment with Cream, he is seen stuck inside a giant stump, with Cream unaware of who he is, trying to get him out. She gets Sonic to come out to save him, much to Eggman's embarrasment.

### Sonic.exe: The Spirits of Hell

At the beginning of the game, Robotnik is in his Base, scheming as he always is, when he sees an alert that Exeller (in possession of Sonic) has broken in shortly after he hunted Knuckles. Robotnik sends all of his Badniks to deal with him before he, Metal Sonic, with Scratch & Grounder head off to safety deeper within the base. Robotnik manages to find a broken Jetpack to use and manages to use it to navigate the base through the corridors, but eventually runs into Exeller. Robotnik panics and shuts a blast door to keep him away, and must quickly reunite with Metal Sonic and Scratch & Grounder within a short time limit or Exeller will break in and kill him. Upon finding his robots, Robotnik sends every Badnik in his lair to attack, but knows that he will be screwed over if he is caught alone, so he can take either Metal Sonic or Scratch & Grounder to guard him, the other being sent to help the other Badniks.

Robotnik will then manage to reach a service elevator leading to safety, but Exeller will break into the room, having destroyed whoever was sent to attack. The villain will then charge a Spin Dash to kill Robotnik - he will plough through Scratch & Grounder and kill the doctor unless he found a Green Ring earlier, but Metal Sonic will hold him off long enough for Robotnik to get in. The doctor begins heading up in the elevator, but Exeller eventually to get past Metal Sonic, climb into the shaft and cut the chain, sending the elevator plummeting into a cavern at the bottom. Robotnik then explores ... trying to find an escape as Exeller plagues him with illusions and chases after him, but the doctor manages to escape by activating an electric barrier to stop him. Robotnik then manages to get outside the base and begins running as far as he can, but sees a Big Ring manifest in front of him and decides to jump in, which takes him to the Hidden Palace. Robotnik then makes his way towards the pedestal with the Master Emerald.

### Whisper of Soul

#### Part 3

##### Crazy Amy Ending

Robotnik arrives in Metropolis with Tails and Knuckles, but he and Tails split off from the echidna to search the area and find Cream in front of a blast door crying (Tails Doll had just committed suicide to prevent itself from attacking Cream). Robotnik manages to open the door but doesn't seem concerned by the robot's death, instead being relieved that the red Chaos Emerald is safe. The three meet back up with Knuckles, where Robotnik explains that they need to reach the teleporter and warp to the Death Egg to take shelter, but the others disagree since there are ongoing problems in Freedom City, and if Exeller manages to kill the civilians his power will grow. Robotnik reluctantly agrees to this, and the group and manage to reach the teleporter, using the red Chaos Emerald to recharge it. Robotnik is irritated after Cream suggests they find Amy, insisting that she'll be fine despite the dangers, and he and Knuckles then warp off to Freedom City, leaving Tails and Cream to have a short chat before they warp ahead as well.

Robotnik and Knuckles search the area and find that there are several security doors blocking the path to the Master Emerald (which they are trying to get to before Exeller), so as soon as Tails and Cream arrive, Robotnik suggests they split up, as while it isn't a smart idea, it would buy them time to reach the Master Emerald. As the group try to work out who goes with who, Robotnik comments that he isn't going to the security room to deactivate the defences since he doesn't know the city's layout. He then declines Tails' offer to go with him, deciding it would be better if both groups had technicians. Despite Knuckles' protests, Robotnik is paired with Cream before the two head off to get to the Master Emerald. The manage to get close thanks to the disabled defences, but at Cream's request, he decides to wait for Tails and Knuckles to return since only the latter can activate the Master Emerald.

Unfortunately, only a few seconds later, they run into Amy, who is alive and very insane. Despite Cream's excitement, Robotnik sees her hammer is covered in blood and warns Cream that she isn't on their side. Upon realizing that she wants to kill them, Robotnik grabs Cream and blasts off using his jetpack in an attempt to save the two of them, but it breaks after Amy throws her hammer at it and the two plummet down. After Cream's attempts to negotiate fail, Robotnik draws his Blaster and shoots Amy in the face to try and stop her, although this only leaves a nasty wound on her cheek. Robotnik runs for his life as Amy and the corrupted Tails and Knuckles chase after him, but thanks to Cream's efforts, he is safe. The two manage to lose Tails and Knuckles, but are sent flying out of Freedom Tower and onto the rooftops outside, where Robotnik is knocked unconscious by the fall. While Amy has landed next to him and has recovered, Cream is a short distance away with his Blaster. The result depends on what Tails told Cream during their private chat in Metropolis:

* In Version #1, Robotnik is saved after Cream shoots Amy dead, bringing her to her senses. After the two girls share one last chat before Amy dies, Robotnik wakes up and thanks Cream for saving him before they leave to get to the Master Emerald.

* In Version #2, Robotnik is killed after Amy smashes his head into paste with her hammer.

##### Best Ending

While this part is off-screen, Robotnik presumably arrived in Metropolis with Tails and Knuckles and managed to find the teleporter, the group agreeing that they needed to find the Master Emerald before Exeller could obtain it. While the teleporter is out of power, Robotnik activates ultra mode to turn it on, and the three warp to Freedom City, destroying the machine in the process.

Upon arriving, however, the group immediately run into Amy, Cream, Sally, and Tails Doll. </tabber>

## Appearances in other games

### Sonic.exe: The Spirits of Hell Recoded

Robotnik will appear in the upcoming Recoded version, partaking the same role he once did before. Most of his mechanics remain the same besides a few tweaks. He is also hinted at having his own boss in the Tails and Knuckles Duo.

## Personality

Described as the world's most vile person, as well as its worst screw-up, Eggman is an evil, mean, self-proclaimed genius scientist who always thinks about doing bad things. Though normal people cannot understand how the world as it is right now is seen in his "horizon of genius", in that mind of his he always tries to conquer it to create his personal utopia, dubbed "Eggmanland". This gives him ridiculous delusions of grandeur and the psychotic belief that the world's problems will be solved if he rules it. As such, he constantly uses his scientific genius and robotic expertise to create weapons and gadgets in his bid to build Eggmanland and to obtain power and dominance. Even though his plans to do so have varied over time, they are all done with this same goal in mind: having the doctor himself in the limelight. To this end, Eggman is willing to destroy anything that gets in his way in order to make his dream become a reality.

Despite these flaws, however, Robotnik does have some empathy. He regrets killing Amy Rose's parents, as he never intended to do this, and during the events of Whisper of Soul he is capable of being a team player as he tries to protect the other victims using his technology and does care about Cream.

## Appearance

Dr. Eggman appears as the classic design of the character. With a yellow cape, red shirt, and black pants.

## Trivia

* Doctor Robotnik's backstory is loosely based off of the *Fleetway Sonic the Comic* series.
* Unlike most characters, Robotnik has the least amount of duo endings, only having one with Cream.
* If the player survives with Amy and Robotnik, they will have a unique ending. Amy is frozen by Exeller after her boss battle, with Robotnik unconscious. Robotnik wakes up and shoots Exeller, however the blast goes through Exeller and kills Amy. They are both frozen by Alice and the timeline is reset. This does not count as an ending as Amy's memory fragment plays only.
* Robotnik's sprites inconsistently switch from Shinbs' sprites to his Chrono Adventure sprites often.
* His "Kintobor" design is not based off of his design from the original Fleetway series but it instead originates from Archie during the Pre-Super Genesis Wave continuity.
* In the comics, he is a kind and gentle overlander who protects Moebius (or Anti-Mobius) from the Anti-Freedom Fighters and such.
* Robotnik's original "corrupted" palette was darker, based off of the original creepypasta's description of design and existing sprites.
* Robotnik's sprites are an old design by Shinbs.
