Magnus (マグナ=バトフーチョ Maguna in Japanese) is a dragon from Peace Keepers in Spyro the Dragon. He was freed by Spyro, who was the only dragon to have avoided the crystallisation due to his small size. Magnus then reminded Spyro about his pal, Sparx the Dragonfly, hinting the young dragon that feeding the young dragonfly butterflies will restore his health.
Later on, Magnus went to the Gnorc Gnexus along with a few other dragons to try and confront Gnasty Gnorc on their own, but he became trapped in crystal again. After Spyro defeated Gnasty Gnorc, he freed Magnus, who told him about Gnasty's treasure hoard where the Gnorc kept most of his treasure, but confirmed that in order to enter the treasure hoard, Spyro must find every gem and every dragon in the Dragon Kingdom.
In the Reignited Trilogy, Magnus is now rotund and reddish orange-colored, with several spikes around his body, resembling a Horned Lizard or a Thorny Devil, reddish wings and a tuft of hair or spikes that resembles a topknot. He wears a necklace and a loincloth resembling a yokozuna's rope, with the armor plates in front similar to the strips on the belt. His appearance and the poses he strikes are now reminiscent of a sumo wrestler's.
