Skylanders 2: The Time Sweeper
OK, so I was thinking of the element of time and the pasts of the Skylanders, then I got an idea. Past = time, right? I thought time would be a really good idea for any Spyro game, but TEN never took it far enough. So I added the element of time into the Skylanders 2 idea...
Plot: It has been a year since the heroic Skylanders banished Kaos from Skylands once and for all. Since then, all of the Skylanders haven't had any trouble with villains...
One day, Spyro, Trigger Happy, and Grill Grunt stumble upon an abandoned, ancient, stone fortress in the Cliffs of Fortitude. Inside, they uncover a lost artifact that resembles an evil-looking hour glass. On the bottom of the hour glass is an inscription. "Clothed in shadow, wielder's clock. Golden time and gates align. Bring forth the uncoming era: Past, present, and last of all future."
Out of no where, the hour glass begins to surge with power and a shadowed figure immerges from within it. "I am Era, The Time Sweeper. I believe that this land belongs to me!"
A dark, forboding light sweeps across all of Skylands as the Time Sweeper hovers above in the air and waves his blade-like cepter.
Spyro and the other Skylanders, the sheep, and all other friendly inhabitants are thrown off into a dark vortex as the world is swallowed up into a worm hole.
--------
Hugo wakes up in a dark palace all alone. Confused, he searches through the palace and comes across Eon's spirit. "There are portal masters here, Hugo. A Skylander should be here soon."
A Skylander of your choosing is summoned.
Eon explains what has happened as you walk along with Hugo. Suddenly, a massive time shift causes a collapsing of the hallway, separating you from the Hugo and Eon. The only exit is through a worm hole in the wall. Within the worm hole, you stumble across that Skylander's home land.
Something seems strange to you. It is not the same time. That is when Eon returns and explains to you that you are in your past, playing through your back story to find a time crystal.
And so the story begins...
Objectives: In Skylanders 2, you must play through the Dark Palace discovering worm holes that lead to the past, present, and future. Some of these worm holes allow you to play through a specific Skylander's past, hense bringing their backstory to life. (Ex. When you are playing as Sonic Boom, you must carry your eggs to the top of the mountain and fight off evil. Once at the top, you encounter the wizard. Etc...)
As a Skylander, your job is to find and collect all of the time crystals in order to gain access to the Time Sweeper's fortress for the final battle. There are a whole lot more objectives and collectibles in this game. There is no limit in time as you play through every era in Skylands' history.
Occasionally, there will be bosses and encounters with the Time Sweeper.
You also must find all of your friends.
Abilities: New abilities are added to every Skylander. A jump button has now been added into the game as well as free-roaming flight for flying Skylanders. A portal master can also call upon the power of time to get through obstacles and defeat enemies.
The Time Sweeper: He controls what goes on in every level through time and space. He can throw obstacles and enemies in your way whenever he feels like it. He is truly the Time Sweeper as he uses the element of time to conquer the world and destroy Eon once and for all.

So what do you guys think? Is it a good idea? Are there any other ideas you'd like to tell me? You decide.
