Biography[]
In the past, Naugus discovered the Void, an alternative dimension full of crystals. He later collaborated with Dr. Robotnik and Snively, who created a portal for him into the Void. One day, Naugus decided to head into the Void through the portal and he ordered Robotnik to retrieve him out after an hour. As a warning in case he wanted to betray him, Naugus temporarily turned Robotnik's head into that of a crow's, much to Snivley's amusement. Even so, after Naugus got dragged into the Void by the portal, Robotnik sealed the portal behind him, leaving Naugus trapped in the Void. Over the years, Naugus plotted to get out of the Void.
Over a decade after his imprisonment, Naugus opened a portal into the Void in the middle of the Great Unknown which nearly pulled in Sonic. Although Sonic managed to escape the portal, Naugus left behind an artifact on the other side of the portal that Sonic found and took with him. From within the Void, Naugus watched Sonic with interest, whose speed would allow him to get out of the Void. To this end, Naugus planned to pull Sonic into the Void with the artifact the hedgehog had picked up.
Unfortunately for Naugus, Sonic left the artifact in the care of Sally Acorn and Bunnie Rabbot, so when the artifact activated, its magic ended up taking the girls into the Void instead of Sonic. When they arrived, Naugus began to interrogate them and learned that Sonic had not been affected by the artifact. Nevertheless, he knew that Sonic would come to save his friends, so he froze the girls in crystal.
When Sonic later arrived in the Void, Naugus greeted him and unfroze Sally and Bunnie. He then explained that Sonic's speed was needed to get them all out of the Void. Sonic, however, took only Sally and Bunnie with him and tried to escape the Void through a portal Naugus had opened. Naugus cut off their escape route however, by putting up a crystal block inside a tunnel they had to pass through. Afterward, he took the form of a sick King Acorn and lured the heroes to his palace.
When the heroes found him and fell for his disguise, Naugus told Sonic that he needed his help and that he needed to get out of the Void as soon as possible. Showing no hesitation, Sonic grabbed the disguised Naugus and ran through a portal out of the Void and into the Great Unknown with him. There, they faced the forces of Dr. Robotnik. Soon after, Naugus shed his disguise and despite his trickery, the sorcerer reveals to the hedgehog that he is in his debt and crystallized Sonic from the neck down so that he would not attack him.
Naugus then tells Sonic to be grateful to him, because he plans to get rid of Robotnik. When a Surveillance Orb then approaches the duo, Sonic explains to Naugus that Robotnik can see them through it. After greeting the doctor over the camera, Naugus released Sonic and let him return to the Void to get his friends out of there. Naugus himself then forced Robotnik to meet him. The terrified doctor thus falls on his knees and assures Naugus that he did not betray him. However, Naugus is not buying Robotnik's story and proceeds to turn his head into that of a slug's, followed by a monkey's, a crow's, and finally a pig's. Seeing this, Snively begins to weep from laugher until he falls down from his chair.
Eventually, however, he discovered that his legs had begun to crystallize because he had been too long in the Void. After allowing Robotnik to escape, Naugus told Sonic and Sally that he and the King, who had also been brought out of the Void and had begun to crystalize as well, had to go back into the Void or they would both die. As such, Naugus opened a portal into the Void with his magic and returned there with King Acorn, not before promising Robotnik that he will return and be avenged.
In the Season 2 finale The Doomsday Project, after the Doomsday Machine was destroyed, Naugus was seen emerging from the remains in an elevator with Snively.
