The Stone-Like is the main antagonist and the final boss of Radiant Silvergun. It also appears in the game's spiritual successor, Ikaruga, again as the final boss.

Appearance[]

The Stone-Like is a large, yellow octahedral object. In the introductory cutscene of the game when it was being scanned at EDA Research Lab Division 3, along with the memory data of the Creator-type robonoid that it was unearthed with from the prehistoric layer of the Earth, the memory data of the robonoid displayed an image of it with circuit board-like traces on its surfaces.

Radiant Silvergun[]

WARNING: The following information contains spoilers!

The Stone-Like was excavated from the prehistoric layer of the Earth by the EDA in July of 2520, along with the remains of a CREATOR series robonoid bearing the serial number 00104, the same as CREATOR 00104, a robonoid stationed on the Tetra space cruiser. Chief Igarashi, Secretary of Defense of the EDA, ordered the Stone-Like to be examined by EDA Research Lab Division 3, which is also tasked at analyzing the memory data of the robonoid.

After the Stone-Like was scanned, and the researchers examined the robonoid's memory data, it began to glow brightly before causing an explosion at the facility.

More to be added

Ikaruga[]

The Stone-Like is unearthed by Tenro Hourai, leader of the Hourai nation. The object seemingly granted her special powers, but at the same time drove her insane. She believed this to be a sign of the gods, so she used the object's power to strengthen her nation's military and conquer all other nations "in the name of peace". A resistance force called Tenkaku challenges the Hourai, but the are almost annihilated. A single pilot of Tenkaku called Shinra survives and arrives at the village of Ikaruga, where the elders give him a ship also called Ikaruga to continue fighting.

Hourai mounted the Stone-Like on her personal ship, so when Shinra finally defeats her the Stone-Like emerges from the ship and activates. Shinra decides on fighting it, asking the elders to remove the restraints from the ship. He absorbs the energy emanating from the Stone-Like into his ship, unleashing it in a kamikaze attack, which successfully destroys the artifact.
