Background
Biography
Warnado was hatched in the fury of a rare and powerful Enchanted Twister. Although initially frightened and quite dizzy, over the passing years he grew to enjoy his whirling surroundings and learned many abilities and secrets of the Air Element. This led to Warnado becoming a powerful force and the only known turtle of his kind. Now, the only time he gets dizzy is when standing still.
Story
History
Warnado was supposed to be born a simple turtle and lead a humdrum life in a Skylands swamp. But in an exciting turn, while still a tiny, unassuming egg, he was plucked from his next by an enchanted twister and sucked into the sky. Upon hatching, he found himself being hurled around the spinning centre of the twister with no apparent way out. After a while, Warnado became quite accustomed to his twiryl, whirly surroundings. Being enchanted, the twister taught him Elemental secrets and magical wind tracks. By the time he hit adulthood, Warnado was as skilled as a senior Skylands sorcerer. And it was around this time that the next exceptional event took place: a storm of dark magic collided with the twister, knocking Warnado out onto solid ground for the first time in his life.
But, to a turtle, who had spent his life inside a twister, solid ground didn't feel all that solid. In fact, it made Warnado a little seasick (or perhaps landsick). He found that the only way to avoid dizziness was to avoid standign still altogether - so he carried on spinning. As he twisted and turned across the Skylands terrain, Warnado was spotted by a creature in kind - Whirlwind. Whirlwind presented Warnado to Master Eon, who managed to convince the turtle to sit still for just long enough to make him his latest Skylander.[1]
Abilities
Having learned the ways of the Air element, Warnado has the ability to spin around in a whirling motion, knocking enemies away with his spiky shell. He can also summon tornadoes at a high velocity to help him fight off nearby opponents, and he can spin himself into a gray tornado to tear his way through enemies.

Trivia
- It is possible that Warnado is based on the Daikaiju monster, Gamera. Aside from minor visual similarities, Gamera is also a turtle that has the ability fly by spinning at great speeds. Gamera does not possess any other air abilities though.
- Unlike other turtles in the Spyro series or any other traditional turtles, Warnado appears to be dragon-like in appearance. He is quite possibly a creature that is closely related to both turtles and dragons.
- His catchphrase is likely a play on the popular internet phrase "For the win".
- his name combines the words "war" and "tornado".
- Warnado slightly resembles the Pokémon, Wartortle.
- Warnado also shares similarities with the Ben 10: Ultimate Alien character Terraspin: both of which being turtles with the ability to spin at high speeds, create tornadoes and have power over the wind element.
- He is the first turtle character to be playable in the Spyro series.
- Warnado has the Air elemental symbol on his forehead.
- Warnado is one of two Skylanders who can fly without the use of wings or jetpacks, the other being Double Trouble.
