Chaos Control is a technique that appears in the Sonic the Hedgehog comic series and its spin-offs published by Archie Comics. It is a technique for controlling the power of Chaos energy,[1] usually for warping time and space or imitating other Chaos Powers.
Description
Super Sonic and Super Armor Mega Man use Chaos Control to restore their realities back to normal.
Chaos Control is an ability that allows the user to manipulate or warp the fabric of space and time using Chaos energy. The power of Chaos Control can be increased depending on the number of Chaos Emeralds added to its usage,[2] meaning that the more Chaos Emeralds that are used in the process, the greater is the extent that the user can warp space and time. Likewise, its effects can be molded into affecting reality in a multitude of manners; with seven Chaos Emeralds included in its usage, Chaos Control is capable of rewriting the very existence of an entire multiverse.[1]
Chaos Control is usually initiated by tapping into the powers of the Chaos Emeralds. Originally, beings with a natural link to the Chaos Force, such as Shadow the Hedgehog or the Brotherhood of Guardians, could induce Chaos Control without Chaos Emeralds.[3] With the Chaos Force eliminated due to the Super Genesis Wave, it is no explanation as to how Chaos Control can be performed without an Emerald.
Space manipulation
Shadow teleporting with Chaos Control.
Chaos Control is foremost associated with its ability to manipulate space, which is usually used to create warps that teleport the user instantaneously from one place to another. The user of Chaos Control can also bring others with them when warping, warp objects to other locations without going with them, or form portals to different locations.[3] Those with a direct link to the Chaos Force are only able to warp relatively short distances with Chaos Control, but with one Chaos Emerald, at least three people can teleport between zones.[4]
Time manipulation
The secondary use of Chaos Control is its ability to manipulate time. This enables the users to stop time, which in turn keeps others suspended, while the users themselves are unaffected.[5] More proficient users are even able to freeze people in time for up to several decades without a Chaos Emerald.[6]
Chaos Powers
For the more proficient users, Chaos Control can be molded into different powers and abilities, like energy spears, energy explosions, energy blasts, levitation and other skills.[7][6][8][9]
Variants
Chaos Blast
The Chaos Blast is an incredibly powerful attack that shoots beams of destructive Chaos energy in various directions once unleashed. Shadow has only been seen using it after becoming Chaos Shadow. The attack is powerful enough to completely disintegrate its targets, such as Black Death.[10]
Chaos Spear
Shadow has used this ability numerous times in his missions, utilized as a Chaos-infused spear that can strike its victims (like a lightning bolt) or go straight through them.
Telekinesis
Chaos Control can be used like telekinesis and can levitate objects or people into the air by trapping them inside orbs of Chaos energy. This has been used by the first and second Enerjak, and Lara-Su also uses a similar power to rein in Sonia and Manic while babysitting them.[8]
Thunder Arrow
Knuckles, both in his base form and as Enerjak, use an ability similar to Chaos Spear called "Thunder Arrow". It acts as a sort of Chaos-powered lighting bolt that electrocutes its victims. Edmund, a possible future descendant of Knuckles, used it against Prelate-V.[11]
Time Freezing
Lara-Su freezing Shadow in time with Chaos Control.
A powerful enough use of Chaos Control can trap a person inside fire-like Chaos energy that can last for a number of years, leaving the person imprisoned. So far, it has only been seen and used once by Lara-Su on King Shadow.[6]
Trivia
- In Sonic Universe #5, there appears to be a similarity between Silver's psychokinesis and Lara-Su's Chaos Control levitation, as both abilities appeared quite similar when put to use in the respect that they were the same color and engulfed whatever it was used on in an orb of green energy.
- Chaos Control is shown not to work on a Sol Emerald (when at least not in the hands of their Guardian).[12]
