darkSpyro

i noticed that all the series 1 characters got a new bio on spyro wiki, but lightning rod doesn't. what is it?

From the official site:

"Lightning Rod once lived in the majestic Cloud Kingdom, where his countless acts of heroism along with his winning smile and electric physique made him the most famous storm giant in the realm. He was a true celebrity, and the palace halls were littered with statues of the chiseled hero. But all the praise and admiration could never quite satisfy Rod, who yearned for something more. As luck would have it, he met an adventurous young dragon named Spyro, who told him fantastic stories of faraway places and dangerous adventures. Rod was spellbound, and he set off with Spyro to seek an audience with Eon to join the Skylanders."

It looks like it's the same?

its the same as the 1st one. why is it that the others got a new bio? and where is lightning rod's?

Lightning Rod's bio from the Sticker Book is very different than his official one, which is why we didn't add it in because it's confusing.

Official bio:
Lightning Rod once lived in the majestic Cloud Kingdom, where his countless acts of heroism along with his winning smile and electric physique made him the most famous storm giant in the realm. He was a true celebrity, and the palace halls were littered with statues of the chiselled hero. But all the praise and admiration could never quite satisfy Rod, who yearned for something more. As luck would have it, he met an adventurous young dragon named Spyro, who told him fantastic stories of faraway places and dangerous adventures. Rod was spellbound, and he set off with Spyro to seek an audience with Eon to join the Skylanders... but not before the storm giants threw a going away party that lasted for twelve days.

Sticker Book bio:

The storm giants are the ancient athletic heroes of Skylands who like to be number one in every event. Aside from being able to bench-press 250 tons, few things are important to the storm giants than their grand competitive games. And the celebrated champion of the storm giant sporting elite is Lightning Rod.

Lighting Rod is the giants' most talented thrower, and sat atop of the table in the thousand-metre lightning bolt hurl for many a year (that was until he sent a stray bolt into the crowd, electrifying a spectating cyclops in the process). But it was during a different event - the triple gold ring lightning bolt toss with a twist - that Rod hit the headlines.

Just as he was flexing for the throw, Kaos' giant projected head appeared above the crod, demanding - as usual - that all in attendence submit to his rule. Lightning Rod wasn't used to sharing the spotlight, so he hurled his bolt skyward. So powerful was the throw that it ripped past the project and into Kaos himself, who was hiding behind in an airship. Seething with anger and spitting blue sparks, Kaos had to accept defeat and flew away. But another attending Portal Master - Eon - had also seen the action, and immediately made Lightning Rod a Skylander.

Mucho better story, sticker book. I conflabulate you.

There can be a coinciding sticker scroll and guide scroll.

Searching it online yourself would also be effective as well.

"Bring the Skylanders to life with this jam-packed sticker book, featuring Spyro, Trigger Happy, Gill Grunt and many more characters from the ground-breaking video game."

To tell the reader about the Skylanders. These pages are from the Sticker Book:

The stickers are in the book of course, they can't post them on the web if you can take them out..

The author simply made his own versions of the Skylanders official bios, that were approved by Activision.

I want that book!

Buy the book and see for yourself. And taking pictures of the book and posting them on the internet would count as copyright, and it's illegal.

They were posted on the Penguins Book website, which is common on some official book store sites selling books:

i wish it would be put on the wiki

But it has nothing to do with Lightning Rod's official bio, unlike the others that are the same. Because of that it won't be put on because that will cause confusion.

Very good point....I suppose you wouldn't want fans of Skylanders (like moi) to get confused about what it is that they are reading. Be it interesting for them or not.

i think it should be put on the wiki, so that we all have knowledge of it.
but because its so different then the original bio, it deserves a footnote stating so.

^ Gosh u are so darn right
