Aypex

Aypex was a Blodex hero known to have wielded the power of the red Chaos Emeralds of his native world of Thoraxia. A statue was erected in his memory and embedded with several red Chaos Emeralds, which Sonic the Hedgehog later used in an attempt to defend the Blodex from their malevolent Bzzzz neighbors. The result was a malevolent Super Sonic who existed as a separate entity from Sonic himself, who destroyed the Bzzzz Queen and proceeded to wreak havoc. Fortunately, he soon disappeared as the energies of the Chaos Emeralds dissipated. Some time later, Thoraxia's Emeralds were drawn in by the Great Harmony, and Aypex's statue was relieved of its decorative stones. (StH: #126, #169)
