Template:SkylandersWikia Template:Characterbox (Skylanders) The Arkeyans were an ancient, but evil race whose technological remnants can be seen all throughout Skylands in the Skylanders series. The Arkeyans will make their notable debut in Skylanders: Giants.
Story
History
Many eons ago, the Arkeyans had protected Skylands from The Darkness. The true origins of the Arkeyans are lost in the mists of time (which everyone admits was a bit careless). All that was known was that they began experimenting with magic and technology to create incredible new machinery... but, as so often happens, they went too far. Soon, their quest for knowledge turned into a quest for power. Led by the Arkeyan King, who wielded an iron fist known as the 'Iron Fist of Arkus', the Arkeyan Empire spread like wildfire.[1] During their rule, the Arkeyans uncovered the secrets of the Eternal Magic Source and guarded it to prevent future generations from discovering their secrets.
The original Skylanders, the Giants, banded together to free Skylands from the Arkeyan's tyrannical reign and defeat the Arkeyan King. In an epic battle, they managed to lock an elite battalion of Arkeyan robots inside a vault. With the Arkeyan forces weakened, the Giants went after the King and removed the Iron Fist from his defeated hand, destroying him and deactivating countless Arkeyan robots, spread across Skylands. But the Giants' act of bravery carried a heavy price, and they were swept from Skylands, arriving on Earth where they have been for 10,000 years.[1]
Skylanders: The Machine of Doom
Template:SpoilerStart During their reign, the Arkeyans had built a large machine that was capable of destroying the Core of Light, called the Machine of Doom. However, it was built as a trap used to capture those who were tempted to steal the weapon, knowing that anyone who was brave enough to get through the Forest of Fear and their worst nightmares, stole the Chattering Key from the stone wyvern, and tempted enough to climb into the Machine of Doom was too dangerous to walk free.
In the modern era, Kaos had sought after the Machine of Doom to trick the Skylanders into trying to reach it before he does, therefore springing the trap in order to bury the heroes alive. His plan failed, as the Skylanders were able to control the Machine, and they and Kaos were able to escape the Arkeyan trap. Template:SpoilerEnd
Skylanders: Spyro's Adventure
The history of the Arkeyans are explored in the Quicksilver Vault and Arkeyan Armory. One Arkeyan, the Weapon Master, helped the Skylanders retrieve the Quicksilver and the Eternal Magic Source that were needed to restore the Core of Light.
Skylanders: Giants
Years later, after his defeat by the new Portal Master and the Skylanders in Spyro's Adventure, Kaos returned and managed to reactivate one of the old Arkeyan war machines. He aimed to use the Arkeyan's enchanted Iron Fist of Arkus to resurrect the ancient army. The Giants became unearthed, and must return to Skylands to deal with this ancient threat once again.[2]
