Appearance[]
The Dark Frights mostly resemble balloon-shaped birds with small wings, a small knot on the bottom of their body and a little horn on their forehead. They have dark blue and black skin, and have markings on their body that resembles a face, while their actual black faces with white eyes are hidden inside their "mouths".
History[]
Shattered World Crisis[]
Act One[]
The Dark Frights were formed by Dark Gaia's energies shortly after the planet broke apart at the dawn of the Shattered World Crisis.
One night, when Coral the Betta was unable to perform the Mystic Melody properly and raise the city's shield, many Dark Frights, alongside other Dark Gaia Creatures, attacked Meropis.[1][2] They would be met with the opposition of Sonic the Hedgehog and his allies, including the Meropis City Guard.[2] Eventually, Coral successfully performed the Mystic Melody with the help of Pearly the Manta Ray and Tikal, which produced a beam of light that destroyed the remaining Dark Frights.[3]
Several Dark Frights would attack the Sky Patrol one night. Although most were destroyed by the Freedom Fighters, the rest would disappear with the emergence of the sun.[4]
Act Two[]
When Dark Gaia emerged, all remaining Dark Frights on the planet were drawn back into the massive creature.[5]
Powers and abilities[]
The Dark Frights are capable of flight, allowing them to float through mid-air in any direction.
