Mephiles the Dark (メフィレス・ザ・ダーク, Mefiresu za Dāku) (pronounced [mɛfɨləs] or [mə'fɪliːz] in English) is anthropomorphic Hedgehog-shaped spirit/demon and one of the main antagonists of the Iblis Saga. He is the conscience, mind, and will of the sun god Solaris, ultimately making him the main antagonist of the series.
He is a cunning manipulator, tricking Silver the Hedgehog into believing that Sonic was the Iblis Trigger and that killing him would save Silver's world. He also has a particular interest in Shadow, who originally imprisoned him after his creation, and whose appearance and powers Mephiles absorbed upon his release. Mephiles repeatedly attempted to convince Shadow to join him, but Shadow continuessly refuses.

Mephiles has three forms. His original (base) form was an amorphous mass of darkness. In his second form, Mephiles appears almost identical to Shadow the Hedgehog, aside from having green eyes with reptilian-like pupils, no mouth (though his muzzle moves when he speaks, as if he does have a mouth), and the fact that everything that is red on Shadow is a pale powder blue on Mephiles. His third and most common form was a crystalline, anthropomorphic hedgehog with no visible mouth, nose, or feet. His eyes also change color in this form, gaining a chaotic red sclera and lighter green reptilian irises. Mephiles height is 100 cm (3 ft 3 in), weight is 35 kg (77 lbs) (in his Shadow form); 40 kg (88 lbs) (in his second form), and he was born/created at the Aquatic Base; the original Soleanna palace.
When ever he changes, his hair/fur colors would be: black-purple-white, and his skin colors would be: gray/purple/white. He is rather in fact ageless (but he was created 10 years prior to the "present time" of series).

Past[]
Mephiles was accidentally created during the Solaris Project, under the supervision of the Duke of Soleanna. In one of the Project's experiments, Solaris was split into two separate entities: Iblis, its raw power, and Mephiles, its cunning mind. As Mephiles was trying to escape the facility, he was sealed in the Scepter of Darkness by Shadow the Hedgehog, who had traveled through time by ten years before the events of the series.
