Flame

Flame is a young red dragon who first appeared in Spyro: A Hero's Tail. Not much is known about him apart from the fact that Red trapped him in Gnasty's Cave.

Character Development

Flame was originally a blue dragon with a purple mohawk, purple eyes, yellow wings and spines, but Vivendi requested Eurocom to give him a 'generic boy' feel for use in cutscenes. So Flame's design was modified and he was given a main red color scheme to go along with the generic 'boy' vibe.[1]

Physical Appearance

Despite popular belief that Flame is just a recolor of Spyro, when they stand next to each other, their in-game models are quite different. Flame has a rounder and longer snout, different tail spike, a larger, lower body, and is a tad bit smaller than Spyro.

Story

Spyro: A Hero's Tail

Flame was rescued by Spyro in Gnasty's Cave when Spyro managed to destroy the Dark Gems in the Dragon Kingdom. He shows his support for Spyro before his battle with Gnasty Gnorc, and afterwards isn't seen again for the remainder of the game.

After collecting 10 Flame Dragon Eggs, the player can play as Flame. His character model can also be seen in the model viewer.

Spyro: Shadow Legacy

Flame appeared as a resident in the Dragon Village along with Ember. After freeing him and the residents from the Shadow Realm, Flame tasks Spyro to break the boulders that have blocked off parts of the village.
