Skabb

Skabb (スカッブ Sukabbu in Japanese) was the captain of the Pirates that captured Spyro. He is also responsible for the capture of Hunter, Cynder and Mole-Yair. He is one of the bosses in The Legend of Spyro: The Eternal Night

Skabb is ultimately killed by Spyro, backing up onto the plank in a wild show of pain before he plummets to the ocean below. The fate of his parrots and his fleet are unknown.

Description

Skabb is very large, very strong, and above all, very stupid. His tongue hangs out from his mouth and he has a large scar over his face. He has a large treasure chest strapped to his back, where Sniff mans a small connon inside. He has only one arm. The other one is a hook that is attached to an elastic rope so that he can use it to hit people. He also has a mini cannon gun for one leg. Skabb also wields a huge cutlass.

Attacks

Skabb has various attacks. When Spyro first battles this stupid foe, Skabb chases the purple dragon around the room. If Spyro gets to close to the pirate captain, Skabb will perform a bunch of sloppy slashes. Sometimes, he will bite or swipe his hook at Spyro. After Skabb is tired of chasing Spyro, he will shoot his elastic hook in the purple dragon's area, only to get it caught on something in his chambers. After these failed attempts, Skabb resorts to his mini cannon, shooting non-stop at Spyro. He will then release ten small cannon balls at Spyro in a series of careful, aimed shots. After being defeated, Scratch and Sniff somehow pick up the enormous pirate and fly him away.

In the second fight, Skabb is more careful with his attacks, choosing to stand at the side lines and fire the mini cannon strapped to his shoulders. If this fails, he rallies a group of four small pirates that attack Spyro. After the small battle with the mini pirates, Skabb raises his sword and lightning strikes the blade, temporarily empowering him and his blade. He then comes at Spyro and swing his sword (three attacks will kill). If this fails, his leaps up and stabs dwon into the center, releasing several shockwaves of pink electricity. The shockwaves swell from three waves to seven waves per swell. The amount of energy leaves him slightly weakened, thus gives Spyro an opportunity to attack. After recovering, Skabb's SkurveyWing minions drop bombs all around him. When this fails, he rallies four medium sized pirates. This process repeats itself until Spyro finishes the pirate off.

Communication

Since Skabb is stupid, the only things he can say are short, incomprehensible grumbles. He has two parrots, Scratch and Sniff, who speak for him. Scratch is intelligent and sarcastic, and he does the talking for Skabb. He sits on Skabb's left shoulder. He is brown and has a tail like a rat's, has only one eye and a stich on his chest. The other one, Sniff, sits beside a chest that holds a small canon. He looks very much like Scratch, only he is purple, and has an eye patch on the opposite eye. He shouts insults and backtalks. He often calls people "fo's" which is slang for fool. After Spyro defeats Skabb, Scratch flies away, and Sniff gets knocked out (possibly killed) by Sparx, who couldn't take any more of his insults. Scratch and Sniff are the actual captains of the Fellmuth.
