| 38 | Whirlwind is half-dragon, half-unicorn; unfortunately, both races' jealousy makes her an outsider (the dragons covet her beauty, the unicorns envy her ability to fly). Nonetheless, when trolls hunted both species, she jumped to their defense. The result... well, let's just say that evil beings are now ''terrified'' of rainbows. |
| 39 | |
| 40 | She returns in the ''Giants'' toy lineup as a Series 2 Skylander and in ''Swap Force'' as a Series 3 Skylander called '''Horn Blast Whirlwind'''. She has a mini version in ''Trap Team'' called '''Breeze'''. |
| 41 | ---- |
| 42 | * ActionGirl: There's a reason why evil beings are terrified of rainbows. |
| 43 | * AllOfTheOtherReindeer: Got this treatment from both of her species. |
| 44 | * BadassAdorable: She's part unicorn, she shoots rainbows, she has feathery wings... even her giggles are adorable! |
| 45 | * CombatMedic: |
| 46 | ** Her Soul Gem ability, “Rainbow of Healing” makes her rainbows able to heal her teammates. This is only available in multiplayer, however. |
| 47 | ** Many of her unique cards in ''Battlecast'' involve healing her team. |
| 48 | ** And finally, she was a Support type Skylander in ''Ring of Heroes'' before the game shut down. She doesn't have any abilities that can actually heal her or her teammates, however, instead having a passive ability of raising her resistance rate if her HP is over 90%. |
| 49 | * TheDreaded: The trolls invoked Whirlwind's wrath by hunting both of the races she's descended from. The resulting RoaringRampageOfRescue was so great that she's now feared quite greatly by the forces of evil. Yes, [[KillerRabbit the dragon/unicorn hybrid who shoots rainbows]] (of [[DoomyDoomsOfDoom DOOM]]) from her horn is TheDreaded! |
| 50 | * EverythingsBetterWithRainbows: Heck, even a ''black hole'' (the "Rainbow Singularity" upgrade) is better with rainbows! Her enemies call it the "Rainbow Of Doom"[[note]](yes, that is the official name)[[/note]] for a reason. |
| 51 | * FantasticRacism: Justifiably, towards trolls, seeing as they attacked her dragon and unicorn brethren. Despite this, the image of her soul gem ability “Rainbow of Healing” has her healing Boomer, who is a troll.[[note]] It's very likely that for all her hate towards trolls, she sees Boomer as an exception due to a number of factors, such as him both being one of the only trolls to actually be on the side of good, [[MySpeciesDothProtestTooMuch as well as sharing her dislike towards trolls]].[[/note]] |
| 52 | * HalfBreedDiscrimination: Wasn't accepted by either species due to her hybrid nature. This did not stop her from going on a RoaringRampageOfRescue against the trolls for hunting them though. |
| 53 | * HealingShiv: After acquiring her Soul Gem upgrade, Whirlwind's Rainbow of Doom doubles as a Rainbow of Healing in two-player co-op. |
| 54 | * HybridMonster: She's a dragon/unicorn hybrid. |
| 55 | * KillerRabbit: Is ''far'' more deadly than you'd expect from something that's half-unicorn and shoots rainbows. |
| 56 | * MoodSwinger: She has the grace of a unicorn, and the fury of a dragon; but she's been trying to curb her temper since becoming a Skylander. |
| 57 | * OffscreenMomentOfAwesome: Her unseen adventure in the Frostfest Mountain, which led to the Frost Elves erecting an immense golden statue of her that doubles as a handy storage platform for [[MacGuffin The Illuminator]]. |
| 58 | * RoaringRampageOfRescue: When the trolls started hunting the two races she's a hybrid of, she went on one of these that made her TheDreaded to evildoers. |
| 59 | * ShockAndAwe: Whirlwind's secondary attack is a "tempest cloud" that electrocutes nearby enemies. |
| 60 | * UnrealisticBlackHole: One of her strongest attacks involves creating a rainbow black hole to attack her enemies. |
| 61 | * UselessUsefulSpell: Her Soul Gem ability allows her rainbows to heal her fellow Skylanders. This means however, that she won’t get any use out of it outside of two players mode. |
| 62 | * WhiteMage: She alongside her mini counterpart Breeze are pretty much the closest the ''Skylanders'' series is gonna get to this archetype, being a CombatMedic in all games that has combat in them (console games, ''Battlecast'' and ''Ring of Heroes'', though Breeze doesn't appear in the latter two) and using the power of rainbows as their means of healing. In the console games, Whirlwind and Breeze are the only Skylanders who are capable of healing every Skylander[[note]]The only other Skylander that has the power of healing is Astroblast, but his only works on Life Skylanders[[/note]] compared to mobile games where other Skylanders also have healing abilities. |
| 63 | * WingedUnicorn: Whirlwind is a half dragon, half unicorn, but for some reason has ''feathered'' wings instead of dragon ones, giving her the look of one of these. |

| 73 | A gryphon who hoped to protect her hatchlings, but a wizard was able to find her and curse her eggs; the chicks would hatch, but return to being eggs within moments and hatch again in an endless cycle. Making the best of a bad situation, she taught her chicks how to fight when hatched, and joined the Skylanders to protect others from suffering this kind of evil. |

| 75 | She returns in the ''Giants'' toy lineup as a Series 2 Skylander. |
| 76 | ---- |
| 77 | * ActionGirl: She fits the bill. |
| 78 | * ActionMom: She's even able to get an assist from her chicks. |
| 79 | * AreaOfEffect: Her Roar attack does damage in an area in front of her. Even more so when supplemented by her "Siren Griffin" path upgrades and/or her Soul Gem ability. |
| 80 | * CursedWithAwesome: She trained her cursed hatchlings to assist her in battle anytime she needs them with effectively no risk to them. Sure, it's probably not pleasant for her, but it's certainly helpful. |
| 81 | * FusionDance: Sonic Boom's Wow Pow ability allows her to combine her hatchlings into one "Super Baby" with a much stronger bite. |
| 82 | * InSeriesNickname: Terrafin frequently calls her "SB" in the book ''Terrafin Battles the Boom Brothers''. |
| 83 | * OneHitPointWonder: Sonic Boom's hatchlings vanish in a puff of baby feathers the moment they take any damage, and the player must toss more eggs in order to summon them back. |
| 84 | * OurGryphonsAreDifferent: Sonic Boom resembles an ''opinicus'', with her eagle's head and wings, but lion's tail, and four clawed legs. This also applies to her (normal) hatchlings; the Super Baby looks distinctly more dinosaur-like, with scrawny front arms and wings but a large head, back legs and long tail. |
| 85 | * SplashDamage: Her "Echolocation" upgrade causes her sonic blasts to send out secondary shockwaves upon impact, which inflict additional damage. |
| 86 | * SpreadShot: Her sonic breath already has a wide area of effect, but the "Medea Griffin" path of upgrades enables Sonic Boom to toss ''all'' of her eggs simultaneously, in a spread pattern. |
| 87 | * SuperScream: Her primary attack is a blast of sonic energy. |
| 88 | * WeaponizedOffspring: Her hatchlings can fight alongside her. |

Warnado alongside Wham-Shell and Camo were the three Skylanders that were released in the fifth and final wave of the toy lineup in ''Spyro's Adventure'', which would make them the last heroes to join the battle. This wouldn't be the case when Warnado returned in ''Swap Force'' as a [=LightCore=] figure, where it was released in [[InvertedTrope wave 1]]. |
| 108 | * BlowYouAway: His secondary attack is to launch a tornado that sucks up nearby enemies. |

| 115 | * UselessUsefulSkill: The first upgrade on his Wind Master path allows you to [[PlayerGuidedMissile control his tornados]]... which then becomes completely unnecessary when you buy the final upgrade, which upgrades the tornados to be able to [[HomingProjectile attack enemies on their own]]. |

| 128 | ---- |
| 129 | * TheAce: He's considered the most macho and greatest of the Storm Giants. |
| 130 | * AttackAttackAttack: He was an Attack type Skylander in ''Ring of Heroes'', both pre- and post-revamp, before the game closed down. |
| 131 | * BigEater: According to the Official 2013 ''Skylanders'' Annual, Lightning Rod consumes an amount of food considered overboard for a human diet. 400 eggs for breakfast, 25 whole livestock for lunch, and several sheep for dinner, anyone? |
| 132 | * ADayInTheLimelight: He's the main focus character in the tie-in novel "Lightning Rod Faces the Cyclops Queen". |

| 142 | * SuperStrength: In “Lightning Rod Faces the Cyclops Queen”, he is able to punch a high-flying cannonball so hard that it ''cracks''. |

| 159 | Jet-Vac was a daring flying ace from the land of Windham. Like all Sky Barons, he received a set of magical wings when he was young, but when Windham was attacked he gave them up to a young mother so she and her children could escape. Eon was moved by this story enough to seek Jet-Vac out and give him a vacuum device to replace his lost wings. |

| 168 | * ButtMonkey: Courtesy of Eruptor, he spends the whole [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fEwyp4XGBP4 "Just Like Swap-Force" trailer]] in pain. |
| 169 | * ChargedAttack: One of Jet-Vac's upgrades enables him to fire a super shot every time he defeats an enemy by vaccuuming it up. |
| 170 | * CombatMedic: He was a Support type Skylander in ''Ring of Heroes'', both pre- and post-revamp, before the game closed down. His healing ability, after having charged up for one turn, heals one team member for 35% of their max health. It also raises the defense of every team member for three turns when charging begins. If he is the leader in the battle, his unique skill raises the effect resistance of every team member by 10% for the whole battle. |

| 195 | Pop Thorn hails from a race of creatures known as Pufferthorns. Often considered one of the cutest creatures in all of Skylands, they are generally quite timid and puff out sharp spines when scared. It is this ability that long ago led to the unfortunate legacy of being used as combs by giant trolls everywhere, being the sharp spines are perfect for brushing out tangles from their long, matted hair. But not long ago, one Pufferthorn took a stand. Tired of his race being used for nothing more than good grooming, Pop Thorn used his naturally thorny abilities to stand up and fight back against the giant trolls. Soon after, Master Eon made Pop Thorn a Skylander. And to this day, no trolls dare to comb their hair. |

| 232 | * AwesomeEgo: Initially believes he can do missions on his own and doesn't need anyone's help. During most of ''I Am Legendary'', he taunts his enemies as he bests them and proudly boasts about his victory to his team over likely taking down the only lead to the Machine Magus. |
| 233 | * BladeBelowTheShoulder: Not just below the shoulder, ''his entire armor is bladed''. |

Being injured, unable to call for assistance, and surrounded by enemies causes him to realize how much of a jerk he was to his team, and he considered surrendering his Legendary status to earn it back someday by proving that he can be part of a team.

| 247 | -> ''"Monkey see, monkey doom!"'' |
| 248 | -> Voiced by: Nick Shakoour |
| 249 | |
| 250 | Fling Kong was a protector of the legendary monkey idol Kubla-Wa. He used his training in the art of Monk-Ru to defend the idol from a troop of Gorilla-Goos. |
| 251 | ---- |
| 252 | * AttackAttackAttack: He was an Attack type Skylander in ''Ring of Heroes'' after the revamp, after initially being an Expert Type. |
| 253 | * {{Combos}}: A small version. On both available upgrade paths, the second upgrade will allow Fling Kong to perform a combo if either the primary attack button (under path) or teriary attack button (above path) is pressed after performing a carpet dash. |
| 254 | * CymbalBangingMonkey: His tertiary attack has him using two discs to bang together and damage enemies with the sound waves. He may not be an actual monkey-toy, but it's close. |
| 255 | * DeadlyDisc: His primary means of attack. With upgrades, shuriken blades can be added for extra oomph. |
| 256 | * DeathFromAbove: His Soul Gem ability, where if his secondary attack is charged long enough, Fling Kong will take to the skies and make it rain down power discs that hurts enemies [[DeathByAThousandCuts many times for average damage from each disc]]. |
| 257 | * EquipmentUpgrade: The first upgrade available upgrades his power discs to have spikes and do more damage. |
| 258 | * JerkassBall: Grabs this alongside Fist Bump and Trail Blazer in the comic "I am Legendary" where they bully Déjà Vu over that they are going to beat her in the championship for a legendary status. |
| 259 | * MagicCarpet: He flies around on one. |
| 260 | * MonkeyKingLite: Fling Kong has some qualities that either resemble or reminds one of Sun Wukong. He is of the Air element and flies around on a magic carpet, similarly to how Sun Wukong could fly on clouds, and while Fling Kong may not have the right outfit or accessories to look the part, the alternate colors used for his Awakened form in ''Ring of Heroes'' help make the resemblance stronger. |
| 261 | * ShockAndAwe: If the Carpet Captain path is chosen, the last upgrade, "Shock Treatment", upgrades Fling Kong's carpet dash to leave behind a trail of electricity. |

| 270 | |
| 271 | Born a prince of insect warriors, Swarm (like the other 9,000 members of the royal family) was never allowed to leave the hive. But some magical quirk led him to grow much larger than the other bees so that he could no longer fit with his people, leading him to step out into the world where he joined the fight against the Arkeyans. |

| 280 | * RoyalsWhoActuallyDoSomething: A prince of a hive who fights bad guys and assorted evil. |
| 281 | * StanceSystem: Swarm has a total of three stances. His normal form focuses on melee combos, flight mode is faster and uses missile attacks, and Swarm Form turns him into a walking cloud of area damage. |
| 282 | * TheWormThatWalks: His Swarm Form splits him into a bunch of smaller bees. |

| 294 | From the moment he was hatched -- in a storm, with his egg struck by lighting -- Free Ranger has loved exploring extreme weather. But the Darkness is no mere storm, and Eon stopped him from jumping into the maelstrom to request his help in fighting it. |

When a fleet of dragon hunters came to capture the creature, Gusto stepped in to defend it. He surprised his foes by repeatedly hitting them with his large "curved stick" until they surrendered & retreated. For protecting the Cloud Dragon, Gusto was given a new Traptanium Boomerang and became part of the Trap Team. |
| 329 | ---- |
| 330 | * BalloonBelly: His Inhaler move allows him to suck in large amounts of air & enemies, giving him a distended stomach. He isn't any slower and can still attack. |

| 342 | Thunderbolt was about to be bestowed the Storm Sword when a Frost Mage snatched it and put all of Skylands into a deep-freeze. Thunderbolt fought back and reclaimed the sword, and restored balance to the weather systems in Skylands. |

| 344 | * AttackAttackAttack: He was an Attack type Skylander in ''Ring of Heroes'' after the revamp, after initially being an Expert Type. |
| 345 | * FogFeet. Has a mass of clouds in the place of legs, much like Lightning Rod. |
| 346 | * OddlyShapedSword: Be it the electricity motif of the normal version or the tuning-fork shape of the fully-upgraded version, his sword's shape is rather unorthodox, to say the least. |
| 347 | * ShockAndAwe: He can summon storm clouds and his Soul Gem ability lets him call down lightning bolts from the sky. |

| 358 | Stormblade was an energetic young chick, who wanted to discover the bottom of Skylands ever since she was young. She never fulfilled this mission even when she couldn't find it from her manmade vehicle, the Sky Slicer. Master Eon saw her thirst for exploration, and asked her to join the Skylanders. |
| 359 | ---- |
| 360 | * AdaptationalJerkass: On top of being considerably more bloodthirsty, her ''Ring of Heroes'' counterpart is far more confrontational, rude, and openly insults her allies, including nearly picking a fight with Spitfire, who's supposedly her best friend. While she's on rocky terms with Nightfall in the ''IDW'' version, it's much more on Nightfall's end than hers, and Spitfire is largely just frustrated with them not getting along. |
| 361 | * AdaptationalVillainy: While still heroic, her ''Ring of Heroes'' self is notably much more of an AntiHero than her other counterparts, being a lot more bloodthirsty and eager to stab her enemies to death. |
| 362 | * ArtisticLicenseBiology: [[WhatCouldHaveBeen Within the development of her, at least]], which is what led to her final design. She was originally a light-blue peacock with purple feathers and was of the Life element. During the testing of her, a little girl told the developers that female peacocks aren't colorful and instead are brown. After that, Stormblade was planned to be a raven of the Dark element before finally becoming a lark of the Air element. |
| 363 | * AttackAttackAttack: She was an Attack type Skylander in ''Ring of Heroes'', both pre- and post-revamp, before the game closed down. |
| 364 | * BirdPeople: She's a humanoid lark. Notably, she doesn't actually have wings naturally, instead her wings are part of a flight suit. |
| 365 | * DependingOnTheWriter: Stormblade's personality tends to varry quite a bit between mediums. Her mainline counterpart mostly plays her up as a dare devil, her ''IDW'' counterpart plays her up as more empathetic, worries for her allies, and is much less ruthless than Nightfall is, and her ''Ring of Heroes'' incarnation is more abrasive, rude, confrontational, and repeatedly talking about how much she wants to [[BreadEggsMilkSquick stab her enemies in the skull.]] |
| 366 | * FeatherFlechettes: Uses throwing knives that look like a cross between kunai knives and feathers. Her wings are lined with them. |
| 367 | * FlashStep: Many of her moves cause her to move so fast she seems to teleport and leaves SpeedEchoes. |
| 368 | * PsychoKnifeNut: ''Normally'' not, but her ''Ring of Heroes'' incarnation is constantly talking about how much she wants to stab enemies with her knives and is generally far more unhinged. |
| 369 | --> '''Stormblade''': Ooooh, I can't wait to drive my feather blades into their skulls and stick them straight up their- |
| 370 | * RedOniBlueOni: The Red to Nightfall's Blue, but the Blue to Ghost Roaster's Red in the comic arc "Secret Agent Secrets". |
| 371 | * SpeedEchoes: When using her moves, she often leaves afterimages behind her. |
| 372 | * SuperSpeed: Stormblade can FlashStep and leave SpeedEchoes behind her, and is one of the fastest Skylanders period. |
