Template:Characterbox (Skylanders) The ​Hydra is Kaos' four headed dragon in the console versions of Skylanders: Spyro's Adventure. It is the most powerful of all of Kaos' Minions. The Hydra didn't make a full appearance until the last battle between the new Portal Master and Kaos. It was most likely used as a last resort for Kaos.

Abilities

Each of the Hydra's four heads is a different element: Fire, Water, Life, and Undead.

  • The Fire Dragon head can conjure a Fire spell that summons moving fireballs that spawn mini volcanos.
  • The Life Dragon head can conjure a Life spell that summons green energy orbs (which are sometimes accompanied by red ladybug-like enemies that can be defeated to remove orbs).
  • The Undead Dragon head summons lasers that move throughout the arena.
  • The Water Dragon head summons flowing water and a large number of sharks. If you go between the sharks and avoid damage, you will regain health.

Role

When he was losing his second attempt to destroy the Core of Light, Kaos released his Hydra into the battle and it was powerful enough to successfully destroy the Core; the explosion causing Kaos' castle to go flying back out of control and banishing the Skylanders to Earth.

When the new Portal Master and their Skylanders finally confronted Kaos face-to-face, the evil tyrant summoned his Hydra to aid him in the battle. Harnessing four of the main elemental classes, the Hydra proved to be a powerful opponent though it can't be fought directly due to a magical barrier that surrounds the arena. After Kaos is defeated, the Hydra withdrew back into the darkness and was never seen again.

Trivia

  • The Hydra's shadow can be seen above the Core of Light in the cutscene right before the Core is destroyed.
  • The Hydra bears a slight resemblance to Dungeon & Dragons' Tiamat.
