Template:Characterbox (Skylanders) Template:Q Lightning Rod is a storm god who is one of the main 32 playable Skylanders in Skylanders: Spyro's Adventure.

Background

Personality

It is mentioned that Lightning Rod prides himself on being the most macho of all the other storm giants in Skylands.

Biography

Lightning Rod once lived in the majestic Cloud Kingdom, where his countless acts of heroism along with his winning smile and electric physique made him the most famous storm giant in the realm. He was a true celebrity, and the palace halls were littered with statues of the chiselled hero. But all the praise and admiration could never quite satisfy Rod, who yearned for something more. As luck would have it, he met an adventurous young dragon named Spyro, who told him fantastic stories of faraway places and dangerous adventures. Rod was spellbound, and he set off with Spyro to seek an audience with Eon to join the Skylanders... but not before the storm gods threw a going away party that lasted for twelve days.

Abilities

Being a storm god, Lightning Rod can throw lightning bolts and summon a large lightning bolt to strike down from the heavens to vanquish his foes. He can also send out electrical discharges from his cloud base to electrocute surrounding enemies.
