Pachacamac is a minor but pivotal antagonist in the Sonic the Hedgehog film series, based on the videogame series of the same name.

Biography
Before the events of the film, Sonic was still living with his caretaker Longclaw. Pachacamac and the tribe knew Sonic's existence and were secretly tracking him down through the woods for unknown reasons, presumably to gain his power.
After Sonic got back home, he and Longclaw are attacked and chased by the tribe. While trying to escape, Longclaw is shot in the back by Pachacamac. As Pachacamac and the tribe continue to chase after them, Longclaw uses a Ring and opens up a portal to another world, warning Sonic to never stop running. Once Sonic enters through the Ring to the Earth and sees Longclaw who was about to fight against the Tribe, he tries to go back to her but the Ring closes.
Apparently, both Echidna tribe and Longclaw died. Longclaw being killed by tribe is confirmed, but how Echidna tribe died is still unknown.
Trivia
- Pachacamac's origin was changed drastically from the games where he appears long before Sonic himself was alive and is the ancestor of Knuckles who was ultimately killed by Chaos alongside the entire Echidna clan for trying to steal the power of the Chaos emeralds and hurting his friends the Chao in the process whereas in the films he and the Echidna tribe are still active when Sonic was an infant and are instead trying to steal his power.
