This is somewhat of a smack to people who disprove the lack of creativity that seems to appear in the names of the 8 so far revealed characters for the new game.

But mostly, it's a fun way to let our imagination wonder what other characters will star in this title.


State a name, description of character (species), weapons and accessories, personality and backstory, and upgrades.

Also display what element it is. The 8 elements are Fire, Water, Earth, Air, Tech, Magic, Life, and Undead. You can create your own element if you want.

Try and find an image that could look like this character. Try drawing your own.


Slime Blob, a green blob monster, no weapons--uses body to mold into random shapes that strike the enemy, mostly angry and in a bad mood, all of his freinds have been anti-bacterialized in the clutches of kaos. In his microscopic world, Slime Blob was able to use his scientific smarts to grow himself giant--to the size of a new hero. Upgrades include: Supersize Blob, blob shooter, and liquidation (stealth).

Slime Blob's element is Tech.

Couldn't resist. The only thing I really want to see more of in Skylanders is unique ladies.

Trigger Happy
Element: Tech
Primary Attack: Gold Coin Shooters
Secondary Attack: Safe Cracker Bomb
Upgrades include: Pot-of-Gold Bomb, Super Charged Gold Blasters, Gold Nugget Slinger
Bio: Trigger Happy is more than her name, it's her solution to every problem. Nobody knows from where she came. She just showed up one day blasting gold coins everywhere with her custom-crafted shooters. Now everyone throughout the lands knows of this crazy goldslinger that will take down any bad guy... usually without bothering to aim.

Hey, I already made a topic of this! :B

Oh well, I'll put mine here later.

Where do you see the character bios and element stuff?

The thread at the very top of the Skylanders board has all that info.

Thanks for pointing that out Razz. Though I do wonder where iSO got all that info from...

Much of it has been in the articles he links to as well as comments made by Skylanders booth attendees at toy expos in the videos.

Here's something I like about Skylanders already! The huge diversity of character species will most likely ensure a wide array of uniqe and hopefully non rip off chacters.

That hope has already been crushed, unfortunately....

Skylanders has spoused a new array of Fandom. I see it now. Fanfictions, Fancharacters...
OH GOD, FAN CARS!

Sez you, SB. While not all of them are interesting, I'm starting to warm up to weird critters like Trigger Happy (I've never really seen anything like him before) and while I'm not the biggest fan of Stealth Elf, I like what I saw of her people (the druid-like green elves). Plus, there's a griffon in this game! They're about as common as fauns in gaming (which is to say, the last time I saw one, Kratos was tearing it's wings off in GoW2).

Fan characters you say? I doubt I'll get in on that outside of just gender bending all of the guys.

I have seen things like Trigger Happy before, though I still like him.
Stealth Elf is kind of generic, but still kinda cool.
Griffons are 'ight.

However, the majority of the revealed characters just like like a rejected cartoon character.
....And while I do like Spyro's design, it's more generic than before....he looks like a rejected Sonic character crossed with a goblin.

....I am prepared for flaming.

I'm willing to be a unique person in thinking that this is the most original Spyro design there's ever been. Traditionally, he was pretty much just an ordinary dragon who was destined to grow up looking like Figment. With the incorporation of his original concept art designs into this new incarnation, I think he looks quite unique.

Yeah, the other characters haven't grown on me quite as much as TH and Spyro yet, though I did like the skeleton dudes ("Jason and the Argonauts" ref ftw! ).

M'kay. I'm not adept in dragon related terms, but m'kay.
It really just depends on your background whether or not you see something as original.
I'm really just referring to the in-game model and promo art though. He looks really good in the concept art.

Wait, so Chop-Chop will have hilariously cheap looking animation!?
YEEESS!!!

....It would be awesome if they did that though!

I like the feathered dragon/dragoness....call me cliché, but I like it.....derp.....

Here's my Skylanders fan character:
Posted Image: http://i28.photobucket.com/alb...theredCoatl.jpg

Tuula
Species: Quetzalcoatl
Element: Air
Primary Attack: Aerial Strike
Secondary Attack: Wind Cutter
Upgrades include: Flight, Wind Seeker, Razorwind
Biography: Tuula takes her responsibility in protecting her Aztec world from troublemakers and evil doers almost seriously. She came from a long line of feathered coatls who were hailed as gods to the natives in her realm. When evil rears its ugly head, Tuula uses her speed and wind strikes to their advantage to confuse and strike down her foes.

Personality: Tuula is calm and calculated when faced against evil, and is a fierce ally during combat. She doesn't take her enemies seriously unless her opponents are strong. When around friends, she can be seen as sarcastic, helpful, and nice as long as you don't irritate her.

^Nice art.

Thanks, I was inspired by the Quetzalcoatl and decided to make a Skylander character of one. X3

Now if only I could draw...

It looks like she needs some sleep though. *notes red-ish eyes*

Nah, those are the the color of her irises X3

If she needed some sleep, she would've had veins on the eyes instead. :3

Or would she?

Either way, she needs sleep. We all need sleep.

She's not sleepy in this picture. I designed her eyes to be that way. Instead of white eyes like other characters have, I gave her pink eyes and light blue irises to give out a coloration that matches her design.

Yes.............but we all still need sleep.

<.< ....

Relax. I'm just playing with you. Why so serious?

I knew you were playing with me. :3

Then why are you looking frustrated?

I wasn't, it was meant to look like a silent <.<

It just looked like you were irritated.

<.< Really.

Yes really. It looks like you're irritated right now.

<.> I am not.

It's just that when I see that face, I imagine a facepalm or an "I am not amused" look.

Hey, Arua,

Can I use the picture?

What for? <.<

TO STEAL THE ART AND SELL IT TO PEOPLE AND SAY THAT HE DREW IT.

Or to.............show it to people that say Skylanders lacks creativity.

I obviously lack creativity in excuses for using the drawing. ;__;

Here's my fan character: Void the monkey
Posted Image: http://th08.deviantart.net/fs7...n65-d3d5eaa.png

Bio: Void comes from a race of monkey that have magical powers and studies martial arts. One day some monsters attacked his village and taken his grampa and sister. Now with the spyro and the skylanders help he will save his family.

Element: Magic
Primary powers: Monkey Fist
Secondary powers: Magic Blast
Home: Cloud 9(Enter the dragonfly reference)

I got one here.

Z Claw
Gender: Female
Species: Cat
Element: Electricity (electricity is my-made up element for this game)
Abilities: Claw Swipe, Blade Slash
Powers: Electric Tail, Thunder Step, Lightning Blade
Formally known as Sky, Z Claw was once a normal cat, but with an unusual blue pelt, until she was hit by lightning when she was 4 moons old. This lightning bolt gave her strange powers of electricity and she can also conduct it through metal. Therefor she found a blade hidden in an underground tunnel and used it as her own. Now she can use her blade with electric attacks and has joined up with the fight against evil, her stealth and electrical abilities coming in handy if she wants to ambush something.

^IT'S GRANNY STRIFE!!!
SHE HAS COME TO GIVE US COOKIES!!!

@arua
I am not stealing it, or anything like that. Not even saying that I made it, just edited it.
If I Finnish it, you may see it again as something else, or you may not.

You edited my picture...without my permission?

As long as you don't distribute it, it's fine, I guess.

But you still need permission from the original artist, not just do the editing anyway.

No, I haven't done anything yet.

I just need something to work on in an 8 hour bus ride.

The way you said:

Makes me hesitate on whether I should give you my permission or not...

I personally don't mind people editing my art as long as they don't distribute it and keep it to themselves. If they wanna distribute it, they have to consult me.

Well, you do have a PM box don't you? If I finish it I would most likely send it back to you. Let you do whatever you want to with it.

Well it's my fan character you are about to edit. And yes, I do have a PM box here.
