File:TLoS DotD Fear Symbol.jpg
The Fear symbol

Fear is an element acquired by Cynder in The Legend of Spyro: Dawn of the Dragon. The noticeable effect of the Fear element is when the magic is used, its power can petrify foes and turn on special machinery like tuning forks.

Symbol

The symbol of fear utilizes two different designs. In the console versions, it is Cynder's head colored ruby red. The eyes are squinting, giving others a glare to strike fear into their hearts. However, in the handheld version, it looks like a ruby red skull in a black background.

Attacks

Primary Fear

  • Siren Scream: Cynder can unleash her fear element as a scream. The red rays hit enemies and petrify them with fear. The sound is also loud enough to activate tuning forks.
  • Blaring Siren Scream
  • Piercing Siren Scream

Secondary Fear

  • Phantom Fright: Cynder can release her fear element as ghastly orbs that, when near enemies, swirl around them, stun them and explode with concussive force.
  • Stunning Phantom Fright
  • Paralyzing Phantom Fright
