Minor characters in Sonic the Hedgehog Archie - Mammoth Mogul

Mammoth Mogul is a character from the Sonic the Hedgehog Archie Comics. He is to Miles "Tails" Prower what Dr. Eggman is to Sonic and what Enerjak is to Knuckles the Echidna.

Mogul was originally a wooly mammoth in the early history of Mobius. One day, a Chaos Emerald fell from the sky and became imbedded in his chest, granting him enormous power. Using this newfound energy, Mogul took over the planet, but was eventually dethroned by a combined effort of the other species. Miraculously, he survived for centuries while waiting to reclaim power.

He first attempted to gain power by stealing the Chaos Emerald that held up the Floating Island. However, he decided that the direct approach would not work, and so stole the Sword of Acorns. After bringing Enerjak back to Mobius from his exile in space, he shortly afterwards used the Sword to drain Enerjak of his powers, gaining the power of twelve Chaos Emeralds and taking the name Master Mogul. Attempting to drain the remainder of the Island's Emeralds, Mogul found himself challenged by Super Sonic, Turbo Tails, Hyper Knuckles, the Brotherhood of Guardians, the Chaotix, the Freedom Fighters, the Ancient Walkers and others. He managed to drain the power of the Island's Emeralds, but thanks to the Brotherhood, all his power and his own life force became the Master Emerald.

Mogul escaped when Dr. Eggman shattered the Master Emerald to feed Chaos. Somehow capturing Turbo Tails, he drained enough power from him to challenge Knuckles, now the most powerful Chaos entity on Mobius. Kidnapping Dimitri, Mogul trapped Knuckles inside a giant Chaos Syphon, into which Knuckles released all his power. Knuckles died temporarily, while Mogul gained all his power.

Knuckles eventually returned from the dead, but Mogul began destroying other dimensions. He was challenged by an army of Tails' other-dimension counterparts, but was not brought down until Tails merged with them to become the colossal Titan Tails.

Mogul is known among fans for his preference to deliver long, overdramatic and self-important speeches over doing anything to actually prove how powerful he is. Mogul has become more of an active threat in recent years.
