darkSpyro

Ignitus did die. He says so himself when he talks to Spyro near the end. When he died, since he was a fire Guardian, his spirit became bound up in the element of fire.

The role of Chronicler is given to a dragon who has proved himself worthy in his life. The Chronicler's job, so to speak, is to record and watch over the events of the world until the age of the world's existence that he is in has passed. The Chronicler that Spyro met was alive when Malefor was still alive (and may have been one of his teachers). When he died, he became the record keeper of the age that existed between Malefor's awakening as the destructive purple dragon and his defeat. Once Malefor was gone, that age of the world was over and new Chronicler, Ignitus, was chosen to record the events of the new age started by Spyro.

Which theory of JAK's did you want my opinion on?

That the Chronicler knew where Spyro was. But wanted Ignitus to find out for himself giving him some experience to handle the job.

So the Chronicler's element would be time itself then?

It's an interesting theory, but I don't think it really holds up. The Chronicler seemed the sort who didn't lie. If he said he couldn't find Spyro in any of the books, it was probably true. Or perhaps by then the mantle had already passed from him and he couldn't read the books at all. Who's to say?

I don't think the Chronicler has an element at all. As we saw with Ignitus, when a dragon becomes Chronicler, his element is taken away. All he is is a keeper of knowledge who has no control over anything outside the White Isle.

Unless experience overthrows color. (Spirit gems/ Blue color?) As of the moment Ignitus took over.


I really think the Chronicler was playing Spyro in TEN. Trying to keep him safe in a cave. Just to boost Spyro's ego. I don't think the Chronicler's stupid. He knows how everything will respond.

good point. The Chronicler is like the wisest dragon in all the lands. it had been his duty for "many mellinia" so called. which means he's ancient. surely he would have enough experiance to know how things respond and how he can help. He never did things without a purpose.

I got the impression off the Chronicler in TEN that he was manipulating things for his own ends. Because he wanted Spyro to be a certain place, he nearly killed the little guy no less than three times, and his schemes resulted in the deaths of countless creatures.

He had to take precautions. the first bit was just security. the second bit with four portals where you can only use one element was to make sure he was a purple dragon. And lastly, the bit with the worst fear was to make sure it wasn't Malefor, who's worst fear was different to Spyro's. He knew what spyro's worst fear was.

Oh, I'm not talking about the security on the White Isle. That, at least, makes sense. I'm talking about sending Spyro to the forest, where Spyro ended up killing hordes of local wildlife, nearly being killed by Arborik, and killing Arborik. Then he got abducted by pirates, all of whom died horribly because of Spyro's presence on their airships. The Chronicler also summoned Spyro into his training dreams at very dangerous moments when Spyro really didn't need to be unconscious: in a deadly forest, in a gladiatorial arena, while flying (which nearly drowned him). And then, to top it all off, the Chronicler wanted Spyro to stay with him and let the world be destroyed, killing everyone who live on it. That just sounds like an evil manipulator to me.

You do realize it was ignitus that sent Spyro to the Grove don't you? Not the Chronicler. He told him he needed to find that tree because that would lead him to the pirates, who would lead him to the map that would enable him to find him. As for all the times he nearly got killed. The Chronicler knew he would survive

Ignitus would not have sent Spyro to the Grove is the Chronicler hadn't first hinted to Spyro that he should go there. As for Spyro needing the map, he didn't use it because the Chronicler knocked him out (nearly drowning/killing him on impact in the process) and got the turtle to bring him there. The Chronicler is a master manipulator and I just can't help but see his actions as being more evil and disturbing than I'm sure the producers intended them to be.

How else would he have gotten to the White Isle WITHOUT the map on the pirate ship tho?

He wanted spyro to come to him in the forest to see if he would obey. He did, and It wasn't the chronicler. THEN he said where he was, cause he KNEW spyro would obey, and come.

I don't think he knew what was happening at the times spyro was summoned in his dreams. He wouldn't have done that to spyro (nearly killing him) deliberatly. The turtle just happened to be there, just like in ANB, leading spyro to Dantes Freezer.

the Chronicler i don't think could see him until Spyro actually came to white Isle. he didn't know that Spyro was flying or in the arena when he pulled him into unconciousness. It just happened to be inconveiniant times.

I think they are alive...

Your theory sounds slightly more plausible then mine.

Actualy, every time Spyro fell unconcious it was always for a reason.

1. To wait until the temple would be attacked
2. So Spyro could make it to the underground grove
3. So the tournament would be delayed slightly
4. So Leviathon could take him to the celestial caves

You don't just think that was a coincidence?

Nope...

Hmm. I hope the chronicler wasn't being evil.

He was only helping Spyro regain his elemental powers at the time.

Yeah I know but why would he deliberatly almost kill spyro in the process? Because he knew spyro WOULDN'T die?

How else is he going to communicate to Spyro? But the Chronicler could've tried contacting him while Spyro's sleeping.

He did. In his Nightmare about the eclipse and malefore calling to him as he carries cynder out of convexity? That was a warning.

hes not dead?

spyro? Yeah we think so.

Spyro aint dead!

The Chronicler knows everything that happens in the world outside his home. That's all he does, remember? So he knew exactly what he was doing and when. It's all way too suspicious for my tastes.

And, I'll repeat, not all of us think Spyro's dead, but we don't think he's alive, either.

Spyro is alive!!! stop this pontless topic. Do you really think the developers would kill off a main character like that especially in a game thats named after the main character. I don't think so.

He wasnt in the book of the dead and was seen flying around with cynder in avalar valley.

End of, Topic closed

yea, good point. they aren't just gonna kill off the main character.

Meh. You're yelling and decision to believe what you like doesn't change my mind. I don't think they're alive, but I don't think they're dead and I have my reasons for thinking that. No one else has to agree with me; it's just the conclusion I got from the game and the stuff implied in the two games that came before it.

It's only the end of the topic if no one else wants to talk about it or explore different possibilities.

Well, they COULD kill spyro and stop the series, but i think they're gonna milk the cow to the last drop.

I only made this topic to hear others opinions, not for someone to answer a question and have it closed.

Though I don't think Spyro is alive, I think they can easily continue the franchise from this point. As I said above, I think he is now forever a child and the heart of his world along with Cynder. The two of them can go on to have lots of adventures in this state.

They could have killed him off. I doubt they did, because of the cutscene at the end, but they could have killed him off as an end to the story. They might not want to make another LOS game.

They might make another reboot if they really want to carry on with Spyro.

So according to you, the next game is gonna be

"the legend of Spyro: Back from the dead"?

That would be cool.

Or:

The Legend of Spyro: Ghost of the Past

According to me, I don't really care what is done with the Spyro franchise. It died with AHT as far as I'm concerned, so it's been in a zombie-like state ever since.

As for how LoS might continue even though Spyro is not technically alive anymore, I think it would just be another adventure for him to save the world, only instead of being a creature who lives on it, he's the heart of it instead. Stop being lazy and read my explanations for this theory on the first page. I'm tired of re-writing it.

I like mine better

in the game you're talking about Razz, you'd have to keep sypro alive AT ALL COSTS!!! THAT would be a challenge!!

And this time, have "lives" instead of unlimited trys.

lolz, yea maybe! he nearly came to death in ETD. That nearly runined it all!

Really? I've got Halo 3.

I think... Maybe there will be more background of the story its like its not even finished. I know Malefor's dead but maybe there are more darkness dragons out there I think...

How about this element to think about. What if their whole world was just pulled back partially. So the next game would be totally like the floating Isles? So they could've just flown up around the masses.

Malefor ain't dead. Spyro cause him to become prisoner of dragon spirits.

Oh really?!
Maybe there will be other Spyro games.
Or other Legend of Spyro games.

Maybe. I hope so.
