Introduction

Dr. Babble is one of Eggman's five counterparts who make up the Chaos Council , the governing body of the dystopian megalopolis of New York City . Although he speaks only in baby babble, Babble is treated as a full-fledged member of the Council—fearsome, inventive, and above all, unpredictable .

Babble within the Chaos Council

The Council operates collegially (Mr. Dr. Eggman serves as its spokesperson). Babble brings raw energy, a sense of escalation, and solutions as absurd as they are effective, which destabilizes Sonic in a way that a classic one-on-one confrontation does not.
