Template:Youmay Template:Characterbox Dragons are creatures of magic and myth, and one of the most prominent species throughout the entire Spyro series. Spyro himself is a dragon. Dragons are one of the native species that reside in Skylands, with Spyro being one of the many dragon characters. Skylands features a variety of dragon species, from water dragons to rock dragons, undead dragons, and even rare purple dragons. It is mentioned that Dragons are also pranksters.
The Dragons in Skylanders are apparently ruled by a King, who resides in the realm of Dragon's Peak, a place that is considered special to dragons because whichever sits on the Dragon's Throne becomes the new king, and where the oldest and largest of their kind reside. Ramses is the current Dragon King, having ruled over the lands with peace and harmony for centuries. Some fear that Vathek, an Undead dragon and Ramses'a evil brother, may one day try to steal the throne. However, Vathek eventually took the throne himself and ruled as king of Dragon's Peak, but was soon thwarted by the Skylanders.
Since few Dragons other than the Skylanders are encountered elsewhere, the Dragons may very well be one of the rarest species in all of Skylands. It is mentioned in many of the Dragons' biographies that they tend to be outsiders. Despite being shunned by those around them (including their own kind), Dragons do have a strong sense of responsibility or purpose.
Dragon Politics of Dragon's Peak
The Dragons used to vote for their leaders but their political system became so complex, no one could understand it. Even the act of voting became difficult for most Dragons. And those who wanted to rule had to campaign and make speeches, and nobody in particular liked it so they finally just said, forget it. Whoever sits on the throne is King. Luckily, for them, the first to do so was Ramses. Not only was he the quickest to sit down but he happened to also be the most qualified to lead.[1]
Abilities
The Dragons in Skylanders are slightly similar to Spyro in appearance, but have different techniques. Their attacks are based on the elements they are closely connected to. Younger Dragons are highly adaptive to their surroundings, making the way they are raised a key factor in determining their adult forms, powers and personalities.
Magical Purple Dragons, like Spyro, have the ability to harness the power of the other elements, including the power of The Darkness itself to become Dark Spyro.
Trivia
- In the Skylanders series, the female Dragons are revealed to have no teeth, while the males have them (with the exception of Sunburn due to being half phoenix, half dragon).
- Each Skylander element has at least one dragon. However, the Earth element has two dragons (Bash and Flashwing).
