===History===
===History===
Elves are often said to have a sparkle in their eyes, but Flameslinger was born with an entire bonfire. And the fire in Flameslinger's eyes was more than just a handy way of heating the house. It gave the young elf the mystical ability to see incredible faraway places. Wherever fiery flames exist, this remarkable elf can use them as an extension of his very own eyes. Flameslinger soon became the talk of the town, and the neighbouring town, and the town three towns over. But he soon tired of visiting rubberneckers. He wrapped his eyes in a blindfold and slunk stealthily off into the forest. Here, he would practice blindfolded archery by bullseyeing [[Boom Fiends|Bomb Fiends]] with his bow.

Then one day in his mind's eye, he saw a drowning fire spirit in a nearby pond. Quicker than wildfire, Flameslinger sprinted to the struggling spirit and saved him from a watery grave. A fiery friendship was instantly formed and the spirit gave Flameslinger two gifts - magic fire boots for lightning quick speed and an enchanted bow that shoots flaming arrows. Soon, Flameslinger was back in the public eye, holding blindfolded archery tournaments and winning everytime. His performance caught the eye of a certain special spectator, [[Master Eon]], and the rest... well, the rest was Skylands history!<ref>''Skylanders Sticker Book'', page 27</ref>

===''Stump Smash Crosses the Bone Dragon''===
Under [[Spyro]]'s orders, Flameslinger was assigned with [[Wrecking Ball]] to accompany [[Stump Smash]] to the [[Giggling Forest]] to investigate its sudden change in behavior. When they discovered [[Glumshanks]] half petrified, they came under attack by a [[Bone Dragon (character)|Bone Dragon]]. Flameslinger volunteered to distract the angry beast while the others carried Glumshanks to [[Flynn]]'s air balloon, but the elf archer had his bow turned to stone. The escape attempt failed when the Bone Dragon petrified Flynn's air balloon, leaving the Skylanders open for attack. Before the Bone Dragon can finish them off, the beast was driven away by Wrecking Ball's belch attack, allowing the Skylanders to safely send a distress signal which was noticed by [[Lightning Rod]].

– Flameslinger, Skylanders: Spyro's Adventure

Flameslinger is an elven archer who is one of the playable Skylanders in the Skylanders franchise, first appearing in Skylanders: Spyro's Adventure. He has a Valentine's Day counterpart called Cupid Flameslinger, who is available exclusively on Skylanders: Lost Islands.

Background

Personality

Flameslinger is an elf who has the impression of being a show-off, having put on a blindfold to prove that he is an excellent archer with incredible aim. Despite this cocky image, he does possess a good heart, having saved a fire spirit from a watery fate when he was young.

Biography

Flameslinger is an Elven archer with incredible aim. In fact, he is so good that he wears a blindfold just to prove it. When he was young, he rescued a fire spirit from a watery doom and was gifted an enchanted bow and magical fire boots that he now masterfully uses to defeat evil throughout Skylands. With the scorched earth he leaves behind, you can always tell where he has been.

Story

History

Elves are often said to have a sparkle in their eyes, but Flameslinger was born with an entire bonfire. And the fire in Flameslinger's eyes was more than just a handy way of heating the house. It gave the young elf the mystical ability to see incredible faraway places. Wherever fiery flames exist, this remarkable elf can use them as an extension of his very own eyes. Flameslinger soon became the talk of the town, and the neighbouring town, and the town three towns over. But he soon tired of visiting rubberneckers. He wrapped his eyes in a blindfold and slunk stealthily off into the forest. Here, he would practice blindfolded archery by bullseyeing Boom Fiends with his bow.

Then one day in his mind's eye, he saw a drowning fire spirit in a nearby pond. Quicker than wildfire, Flameslinger sprinted to the struggling spirit and saved him from a watery grave. A fiery friendship was instantly formed and the spirit gave Flameslinger two gifts - magic fire boots for lightning quick speed and an enchanted bow that shoots flaming arrows. Soon, Flameslinger was back in the public eye, holding blindfolded archery tournaments and winning everytime. His performance caught the eye of a certain special spectator, Master Eon, and the rest... well, the rest was Skylands history![1]

Stump Smash Crosses the Bone Dragon

Under Spyro's orders, Flameslinger was assigned with Wrecking Ball to accompany Stump Smash to the Giggling Forest to investigate its sudden change in behavior. When they discovered Glumshanks half petrified, they came under attack by a Bone Dragon. Flameslinger volunteered to distract the angry beast while the others carried Glumshanks to Flynn's air balloon, but the elf archer had his bow turned to stone. The escape attempt failed when the Bone Dragon petrified Flynn's air balloon, leaving the Skylanders open for attack. Before the Bone Dragon can finish them off, the beast was driven away by Wrecking Ball's belch attack, allowing the Skylanders to safely send a distress signal which was noticed by Lightning Rod.

  • He could have night vision like Stealth Elf, but it can't be told because he always has his eyes covered.
  • His "second sight" allows him to see far-off places and events.[3]

    • However, this could have been a gag for humor.
  • His catchphrase 'Let the Flames Begin' is a pun on the saying 'Let the Games Begin'.
  • He and Stealth Elf are very similar: both are elves, have green skin, blue hair, a ponytail, use a weapon to fight, and both have some kind of cloth on their face.
    • However, they have one major difference: while Stealth Elf has her whole face covered but her eyes, the eyes are the only thing covered for Flameslinger's face.
  • In both toy form and in his artwork, his Fire Bow has no string.
  • He and Shroomboom are the only projectile characters who wield weapons that aren't guns.
  • As a Series 2 figure, Flameslinger uses the Volley Shot.
    • On his Series 2 art though, he has three arrows in the normal position, not upwards.
  • His Inferno Arrow path only made fire in Spyro's Adventure, but does damage and leaves fire in Giants.
  • In Giants, Flameslinger speaks with a French accent, despite looking more Asian in appearance (due to his armor and pony tail).
