Background
Esmeralda Robonik, also known by her Title of "Esmerald the Luxendarc", is the True Antagonist of Shadow the Hedgehog II, the Leader of the "Chaos Arms", and is revealed to be the Twin sister of Maria Robotnik, who had survived both her disease, as well as the shutdown of the ARK over 50 years ago. She seeks to use the blood of both of Gerald's creations (Shadow and Terios), as well as the Power of the Black Arms, to become Immortal and create her own Planet, were only those she deems "Perfect" may exist.

Prior to the Events of Shadow the Hedgehog
Esmeralda Robotnik is the Twin Sister of Maria Robotnik. Like Maria, she was also infected with the then incurable disease, N.I.D.S., but she was born with an even more frail body, that she was given little chance of making past the age of 16 if she was not under the ARK's artificial atmosphere and a Constant Life Support System (Similar to the Biolizard). Because of this, she is kept in a Capsule for a majority of her Life aboard the ARK, and only her sister, Gerald, and some staff Members of the ARK knew about her existence. She was aware of everything around her despite her disposition, and constantly awaited the day she could be allowed to leave the Capsule. After Shadow was Created, Esmeralda learned about the Black Arms and their Leader, Black Doom, and questioned her Grandfather's motives for working with a clearly evil Alien being to create a Black Hedgehog, which also made her being to give up hope that her Grandfather was going to cure her (Since she was unaware that Shadow's Blood was the cure, or the creation of Terios, as she only knew of Gerald having to jettison the Biolizard after it's rampage). Esmeralda saw how Happy Maria was with Shadow, and began to spiral towards despair of her happiness. Eventually, when G.U.N. attacked the ARK, Killed Maria, Captured Gerald and jettisoned Shadow (And Terios unknowingly), Esmeralda was all alone on board the Ark.

Angry and afraid of her Isolation, she eventually forced herself out of the capsule, and although she was well enough to walk around, she was quickly becoming sick. Through sheer willpower, she eventually found herself into Gerald's lab, which contains all the Data on Shadow the Hedgehog, as well as his Brother, Terios. Esmeralda, after reading the data, discovers that Shadow and Terios were the cure of N.I.D.S., and also held Eternal Youth within them, and that the cure was going to be used on both her and Maria. Instead of being heartbroken, Esmeralda grew furious, her one chance of living was stripped from her because of G.U.N.'s raid. Her luck, however, was about to change, as she found a spare parts of the Biolizard's Life support system. In her solitude, as well as her last remaining strength, she constructed a Life support system for herself, and fused it to her Body (With it appearing on her back and its wires fusing with her veins) using broken Chaos Drives.

To her surprise, the machine worked, and she suddenly began to feel better, almost as if she was never sick to begin with. Esmeralda stayed on the ARK for a few more days discovering what she could, until she eventually desired to escape to Earth (Since the Life Support system needed Earth's Atmosphere to continue to function). Esmeralda found an escape pod, but was greeted with the dead body of her Sister, Maria. While horrified, Esmeralda still held contempt for her, and took her headband before departing for earth.

Esmeralda hid herself away on Earth, and eventually learned of Professor Gerald's death (Via firing squad). She swore to herself that she would continue he research, but use it to create a Perfect world, one were those she deemed "Inferior" wouldn't exist.
