History

Early History

Creating Shadow

Black Doom and the Black Arms traveled the universe in search of worlds whose inhabitants they could devour, and came across the world of Mobius. While there, Doom met and made a deal with Professor Gerald Kintobor, and helped him create Shadow the Hedgehog. Black Doom departed with the Black Comet, intending to return in fifty years time and use Shadow to help him conquer Mobius. However, Gerald secretly intended Shadow to serve as a protector against the return of the aliens.[1]

Delayed Return

As the time of the Black Arms' return to Mobius drew nearer, they came into conflict with the Xorda, another race of hostile aliens who intended to destroy Mobius. Given that this would prevent the Black Arms from using the planet as a food source, Black Doom marshaled his race for battle, beginning the Black Arms-Xorda War. The conflict proved devastating to the galaxy at large, bringing ruin to worlds such as Argentium, homeworld of the Bem. Sonic, Tails, Knuckles, and Merlin Prower would see this devastation first hand, with Sonic later connecting the war with the Xorda with the Black Arms' overdue return. The war was so intense that it was unclear whether either side would ever be able to triumph.[2]
