Ice Citadel

Template:PlaceOriginal The Ice Citadel is a realm in the Icy Wilderness homeworld in Spyro: A Hero's Tail. It must be first accessed via Hunter in Gloomy Glacier after Spyro gets captured by a Mammoth working for Red. The Dragon Elder Astor will teach the Walk Kick ability after you free him from a dungeon.

Trivia

• In Astor's Dungeon, there are markings on the wall, which seem to be Astor's way of marking how many days since he was thrown in there. There are some groups of 32, along with two groups of 25. Altogether, Astor has been locked up for 217 days.
• You need Supercharge to complete this level, which means you need at least 40 Light Gems.
• This level has the most Dark Gems in one given level (5). Frostbite Village has the same number.
