~ Ixis Naugus facing Mammoth Mogul. |
Ixis Naugus is one of the two secondary antagonists (alongside Snively) in the Sonic the Hedgehog comics published by Archie Comics, as well as one of the two overarching antagonists (alongside Mammoth Mogul) of the pre-continuity. Naugus was a surviving member of the Order of Ixis, an ancient organization founded by Mammoth Mogul.
After the comic continuity was rewritten by the Super Genesis Wave, the wizard was renamed Walter Naugus, the last of the magical troll race alongside his sister, Wendy Naugus.
Appearance[]
Naugus is short "mobian", although taller than Sonic. He is a humanoid who unlike other mobians (anthropomorphic animal-like entities of sonic’s world) has an anatomy that does not mimic any specific species of animal, but rather is a chimera of different animal features.
Naugus possesses a light complexion, red eyes and has a hunched body posture. He also has a pointy nose, sharp teeth, bat-like ears, and a rhino-like horn on his head. He also has a long, white beard. While his right hand seems human-like, his left hand however resembles the claw of a crab or lobster. He also has stubby legs and a long, reptilian tail that he drags along the ground. For clothing, Naugus wears a purple suit covering his whole body. In addition, he wears a black cape, gray gloves on both hands, and black boots.
History[]
Naugus was created after a magical incident involving three mobian members of the Order of Ixis:Agunus, Nusgau, and Suguna. The trio were merged together into one monstrous being that became known as Naugus. At first, The wizard tried to take over Mobius by killing King Maximillion Acorn, but got banished to the Silent Zone/Void. Later, he escaped with Dr. Robotnik (who fears Naugus) and tries again by trying to get rid of Sonic the Hedgehog as well, but he will also try to kill Robotnik for his back-stabbing moments.
After the Worlds Collide event in the Archie Sonic comics, the villain's name was changed to Walter Naugus and is no longer a hybrid creature. Instead, he is one of the last members of the Troll race, and his appearance now sports a tail.
Powers and Abilities[]
Pre-Super Genesis Wave[]
Because he is a mixture of beings that represent the worlds four elements, Naugus has the power to manipulate earth, fire, wind, and water. He also has the ability to enter magical contracts with other people, which can allow him to possess their body and control all their actions (as he once done with King Acorn). Naugus can even use crystalline magic to encase people in solid crystal, although this ability only effects those he’s entered a contract with. However, Naugus can crystallize various forms of technology and control it without any restrictions.
His additional powers include the ability to shadow meld (a merging technique that allows him to move or hide in the shadows), achieve flight using his cape like wings while summoning gusts of wind, teleportation from one area to another, and can use large amounts of rings to become Ugly Naugus; his super form which greatly increases his magical powers.
After being imprisoned in the Zone of Silence for a long period of time, Naugus learned how to warp reality within the realm.
Post-Super Genesis Wave[]
After a cosmic event known as the Super Genesis Wave, Naugus’ history and abilities were permanently altered. In this continuity, Naugus has the power to shapeshift and can control the minds of others. He is still able to perform crystalline magic, which has now been named “Crystalmancy”, and can use it to crystallize almost anything he wishes. However, Walter’s control over crystallized technology or those brainwashed will only remain if he stays within a certain range. It is unknown if Naugus had retained any of his other powers after the Super Genesis Wave.
