Councilor Gala-Na

The head politician of the ancient Echidna city of Albion, Gala-Na has the best interests of her people at heart but goes about things the wrong way. She was extremely angry with the Brotherhood of Guardians when they refused to move the populace of Echidnaopolis to Albion, which she proposed in the hopes that the Echidna people would be made whole. She also had the High Sheriff brought to Albion to be disassembled, but he was saved by a team led by Knuckles the Echidna.

Because she feared Knuckles' growing Chaos powers, she attempted to have them forcibly removed after having Nic and Nack the Weasels capture him, using a similar device that Dimitri the Echidna used to drain the Chaos Emerald powers into himself. However, the process was tampered with by Charmy Bee and his fiancee Safron, who couldn't believe that Echidnas outside the Dark Legion were hurting Knuckles on purpose. The end result was Knuckles breaking free and becoming Chaos Knuckles, a green version of himself with limitless powers. Thus, Gala-Na's foolishness only resulted in alienating Knuckles and his allies, as well as making his abilities stronger than they were before.

Gala-Na's decision to act against Chaos Knuckles would have worse consequences, as the accident mutated Albion's top energy scientist, Dr. Finitevus, into a negative version of Knuckles who soon became a dangerous threat. She ordered his termination, but the white-furred Echidna escaped after sabotaging Albion's defenses; he later returned leading an army from the Eggman Empire to reduce the city to a wasteland. In her last act before the invaders found her, Gala-Na recorded this history of events on a disk that Remington, transported to Albion along with the rest of the surviving Echidnas by Enerjak, found amid the ruins and gave to the Guardian Locke.

Gala-Na was initially depicted with lilac fur, light blue eyes, and yellow robes. However, she later appeared with red fur, purple eyes, and goldenrod robes.

She would have been made a Robotnik sub-boss in issues following #134 had the plot idea gone through, but it appears to have been scrapped.
