Four Ancients surrounding Lyric, as depicted in a book.
The Ancients are a race from the Sonic Boom series which appear in Sonic Boom: Rise of Lyric and Sonic Boom: Shattered Crystal. They are an ancient race of creatures from a civilization that existed over a thousand years ago, but was betrayed by one of their own, namely Lyric. In the present day, Lyric is the last remaining member of the Ancients.[1]
Description
Anatomy
Three hooded Ancients.
The true appearance of the majority of the Ancients is unknown, though most of them appear to resemble bipedal anthropomorphic animals with long muzzles. Members like Lyric however, are much different in appearance, resembling giant and monstrous snake-like creatures.
Characteristics and Culture
The Ancients were a generally good-natured race who strived for peace, given they were devoted to peacefully controlling the world’s resources. However, not all of them are good as demonstrated by Lyric, who was corrupted by power and turned on his own kind to destroy all organic life.[1]
History
The Ancients were an ancient civilization who existed a millennium ago. The entire race was devoted to peacefully controlling the world’s resources. One among them however, Lyric, was driven mad with power and turned on his fellow Ancients and took control of the resources.[1] This supposedly led to a great war which the Ancients were involved in.[2] Following his uprising, Lyric built an army of robots programmed to obey his every command and set out to destroy everything organic and create a world of metal and robots. However, just before Lyric could successfully take over, the last surviving Ancients attacked him and imprisoned Lyric in a tomb where he was to remain forever.[1] After that, the Ancients eventually disappeared, with the only remaining member being Lyric.[1]
