Formation: The Nocturnus Clan was the rival clan of Knuckles The Echidna's clan. The two waged war and the result was the near devestation of both clans. The Nocturnus Clan lost and was banished to the Twilight Cage. Knuckles' clan was soon attacked by the monster known as Chaos. The echidna's succeeded in trapping the Chaos monster within the Master Emerald. Knuckles' clan sent the Master Emerald shrine up into the sky and the piece of land was named "The Floating Island" which was later renamed "Angel Island". When Ix heard of this from Shade The Echidna as well as the existance of the Chaos Emeralds, Ix decided to take over Earth no matter what. He had to have this power and nothing was to stop him.
