Voiced by: Daniel Hagen

The leader of the Skylanders who was defeated by Kaos prior to the events of Spyro's Adventure. He nevertheless remains as a Spirit Advisor throughout the series.

And the Adventure Continues: "Your journey with your Skylanders, is only just beginning", which he says at the end of the games from Spyro's Adventure to Trap Team.
Big Good: The former leader of the Skylanders and the Spirit Advisor for the player, AKA the new Portal Master. Eon also was the one who recruited many of the Skylanders.
Blue Is Heroic: He wears blue and was one of the greatest and most powerful Portal Masters in Skylands.
Demoted to Extra: After getting a bigger role in SuperChargers, he goes back to his Spirit Advisor role in Imaginators.
Distressed Dude: He was captured by Kaos and Count Moneybone at the start of SuperChargers, and the Skylanders had to go save him.
From Zero to Hero: Eon started out as a simple servant to another Portal Master, Nattybumpo. One day, Eon showed that he was born with the abilities of a Portal Master by accidentally activating a portal that sent Nattybumpo to the Dirt Seas. From there, Eon grew to become the greatest Portal Master Skylands had ever seen.
Never Say "Die": Many discussions of Eon seem to dance around the fact that he died in Kaos' assault, but it is explained that he was simply transported to another world.
Oracular Head: At least until SuperChargers.
Posthumous Character: While he's not dead, he turned into a spirit before the events of the game and acts as a Spirit Advisor to the player. In SuperChargers, however, he got a more prominent role.
Really 700 Years Old: Given that he appears in the backstories of some of the Swap Force Skylanders', who were banished over a hundred years ago, it stands to reason that he is at least that old. It fits with his name, even if an eon is one billion years.
Sealed Good in a Can: According to the book A Portal Master's Guide to Skylands, Eon flew into a portal when Kaos used his hydra to blow up the Core of Light. Despite their powers over them, Portal Masters aren't supposed to use the Portals on themselves, so Eon landing on one sent him to another plane of existence with no way of physically getting back to Skylands, he can only do so as a spirit. Not even Kaos, a fellow Portal Master, knows how to bring Eon back.
Spirit Advisor: Before the events of Spyro's Adventure, when Kaos' hydra destroyed the Core of Light, the explosion turned Eon into a spirit. When a Portal Master starts a new adventure he is the first face they will see (except for SuperChargers and Imaginators), and when he does, he says that he is there to guide them on their adventure.
Why Did It Have to Be Snakes?: He is afraid of falcons according to Air Strike's backstory.

Hugo

“Master Eon says something big is happening in Skylands and we need to find out what's going on!”

^{Click here to see his appearance in SuperChargers.}

Voiced by: Michael Yurchak

Eon's assistant. With Eon indisposed, he's the one who researches the Core of Light, how to fix it, and where to find the parts.

Absurd Phobia: Of sheep.
Cali: Honestly, Hugo! They're just sheep!
Hugo: That is where you are wrong, my dear Cali. These creatures may appear to be friendly, cuddly piles of fluff. But turn your back on them and they turn into wretched lint-balls with beady little eyes staring at your every move.
The Bus Came Back: Has a much more major role in SuperChargers and will give the player bonus missions to do (and which he will reward them for completing) after his story importance finally diminishes.
Forced Transformation: In the final part of the Mask of Power book series, Trigger Happy Targets the Evil Kaos, Kaos transforms Hugo into the last thing Hugo would want to become, a sheep.
Half-Dressed Cartoon Animal: Odd when compared to the other NPCs, such as Flynn, Cali and some Mabu villagers.
Nerd Glasses: So big that they are practically functioning as magnifying glasses for his eyes.
Put on a Bus: After being a major character in Spyro's Adventure, he appears in the introductory scene of Giants to give the Skylanders their mission, but doesn't come along on the adventure. Similarly, he only appears in the opening cinematics of Swap Force and Trap Team to spout a bit of exposition, then vanish. For Trap Team it's especially egregious since Cali plays a part in the story but not him for no explained reason.
Sensitive Guy and Manly Man: The nervous and discreet sensitive guy to Flynn's manly man.
Stronger Than You Look: As part of his new appearance in SuperChargers, he now carries a giant book on his back all the time. He can gets up quite a distance in the air when he jumps with it!

Flynn

"BOOM!"

^{Click here to see his appearance in SuperChargers.}

Voiced by: Patrick Warburton

The greatest pilot in all of Skylands, or so he claims. He uses these skills to assist the Skylanders, though he spends more time bragging about himself and hitting on Cali.

Ace Pilot: At least he claims to be one.
Amazon Chaser: Falls almost instantly for Action Girl Extraordinaire Cali.
- In Swap Force, Cloudbreak's resident Action Girl and Ace Pilot Tessa rapidly grows on Flynn after proving she's his biggest competition for the title of Best Pilot in Skylands.

Flynn: ...your hair smells like strawberries.

Breakout Character: While he was one of the most prominent characters in Spyro’s Adventure and the first bystander to talk to when you were ready to head out on your next mission, he started losing focus after the Eternal Air Source was returned to the Core of Light. Starting with Giants, however, he became the only guy to talk to to progress the story, which carried over to Trap Team and SuperChargers. Although there was no point in Swap Force where he was the go-to guy for continuing the story, with Tessa and Sharpfin fulfilling that role instead, he still was the only one of the original trio to make a full return in the story.
Butt-Monkey: His boastful attitude can get him into some mortifying situations, like Whirlwind attacking him because he laughed at how she calls her rainbows "Rainbow of Doom" or how he was the only one at Skylander Academy who didn't pass Tidepool's trust test because he insisted that he was half Mabu, half enchilada, prompting Tidepool to call him 100% meathead.
- While he doesn't make a physical appearance in Battlecast, the times he shows up on spell cards all feature him in some kind of pain or humiliating situation. The "Anvilite" image is a small anvil dropping on his head, "Entangle" has him trapped under a net, and "Stumble" has a magic rope tangling his legs.
Catchphrase: "...Boom!"
Chick Magnet: Not so much in the games, but in the tie-in comics, it's shown that both Cali and Tessa have feelings for Flynn (not that they'd admit it).
Crouching Moron, Hidden Badass: For all his bragging and problems, Flynn actually could be one of the best pilots in all of Skylands, leaping into danger head-on with the Skylanders on many occasions(Provided he's in a gunboat of some kind). He helps you navigate a small fighter through a really tight tunnel system in Giants and pilots a gunboat to help you take out Anti-aircraft weaponry several times in Trap Team.
Demoted to Extra: In Imaginators, where some of the Skylanders were more involved in the story. The only important parts he does is revealing what book the Sorcerer Doomlander stole from the library and being the ride the Skylander needs to get to the Dragon Temple so they can undo the brainwashing spell put on everyone (including Flynn).
Distressed Dude: The first chapter of the 3DS version of Giants has the main objective being to save Flynn from Pirates who captured him after he beat them in cards. And at the start of SuperChargers, he along with Hugo and Cali got captured by Kaos’ forces. Luckily for them, they got saved pretty quickly.
Drives Like Crazy: His flying skills can be dangerous in some places. Discussed in chapter 14 of Trap Team
Buzz: I don't know who taught you to fly, oh, but they should probably lose their license!
Flynn: What's a license?
Egopolis: His hometown is called “Boom Town”, named after his signature pose.
Four-Fingered Hands: Zig-Zagged. In Spyro’s Adventure and Giants, he has four fingers in cutscene, but three in gameplay. Starting with ''Swap Force'', he started having three fingers in cutscenes as well.
The Friend Nobody Likes: His massive ego and overplay of his own abilities doesn't earn him that many points with the other allies to the Skylanders, especially Cali. Everyone still cares about him, but wish that he could be a lot more humble.
Glad I Thought of It: It was Cali's idea that Flynn needs a propeller for his air balloon.
Goggles Do Nothing: He never puts his goggles over his eyes at any point, even though he is a pilot.
A Hero to His Hometown: The Mabus living in Flynn’s hometown “Boom Town” thinks Flynn is one of Skylands’ most legendary heroes and the Skylanders are Flynn’s sidekicks. Despite that, the town still has a museum that details every Skylander and even has a statue of Eon and Spyro in the middle.
Hypocritical Humor: His opinion of credits:
I don't know, the whole thing seems kind of egotistical, to me. I mean, you don't see me walking around bragging about all the great things I've done.
Indy Ploy: Comes up several times in Swap Force, as Flynn's favorite battle plan is seemingly "wing it". Which is appropriate, with him being an Ace Pilot and all.
Jerk with a Heart of Gold: He might be boastful of his abilities that he has a hard time proving are real, but he is still on the same side as the Skylanders and will assist them in taking down evil, even if he will just take all the credit for himself in the end.
Let Us Never Speak of This Again: Tells the Skylander to never mention to anyone that he got turned into a sheep by the Sheep Mage in the Sheepwrecked Island adventure pack.
Like Father, Like Son: It is implied (and later confirmed by one of the writers) that Buzz is Flynn's father, and several characters notice the amount of similarities between the two.
Mission Control: The most prominent figure for this in the series. While he only served this role for the first four levels in Spyro's Adventure, it got expanded upon in Giants, Trap Team and SuperChargers, where he was the only'' character who was responsible for progressing the story save for a few chapters.
Mother Nature, Father Science: When he is paired up with Tessa throughout the first half of Swap Force. Flynn transports himself and the Skylanders by using machine-powered aircrafts and relies on machines to find his way forward without trusting his instincts, as lampshaded by Tessa who does the opposite, flies on a giant bird for transportation and lives in a village that surronds a giant tree.
Never My Fault: Flynn and Cali does not appear at any point in Kastle Kaos in Giants due to them getting lost. After the failed attempt to take down Kaos, Flynn said that they both contributed to getting lost because it takes two people to get lost, one to actually get lost and the other to realize it.
Noodle Incident: He’s not allowed to set foot on the Junkyard Isles, with the reason relating to his attempt to get the Drow’s compass that can be found there.
Reduced-Downtime Features: In Lost Islands, his Companion ability cuts the time it takes for Skylanders to go on adventures by half.
Sensitive Guy and Manly Man: The cocky and confident manly man to Hugo's sensitive guy.
Serious Business: Describes sharing his Enchiladas with Kaos as an “unbreakable bond”, and thus is not pleased when Kaos obviously, betrays the heroes at the end of Trap Team.
Skewed Priorities: Despite his crush on Cali, he is much more concerned with retrieving his giant gold statue when both it and Cali are taken by Count Moneybone in the 3DS version of Swap Force.
Shut Up, Hannibal!: Gets one during Kaos' post defeat rant at the end. Cali approved.
Something Only They Would Say: In Giants, Flynn tries to not reveal his identity to the Pirates who hold a grudge against him, but he eventually lets his Catchphrase slip and they identify him. Cue a mad scramble to get back to their ship.
Straight Man and Wise Guy: Depends on who he's around. He's the wise guy to Cali, and the Straight Man to Tessa.
Stealing the Credit: At the end of several games, he claims to be the one who saved Skylands, and the Skylanders? Yeah, they helped too.
Throw the Dog a Bone: In the end, after trying to impress Cali all game and failing, he finally manages to get her approval by giving Kaos a Shut Up, Hannibal!.
- While he mostly gets a lot of eyerolls from others when he boasts about what he accomplishes during the games, at the end of Trap Team during the offical opening of Skylander Academy, Buzz invites Flynn up to the stage to congratulate him on his assistance to the Skylanders throughout their mission.
Trademark Favorite Food: Enchiladas. So much that sharing enchiladas with another individual is an "unbreakable bond".
Vacation Episode: Was supposed to be on vacation in Swap Force, but instead got roped into helping Tessa and Woodburrow in rescuing the Elementals. He finds this adventure to be even better than what he had originally planned.
Yank the Dog's Chain: His ship gets wrecked in the beginning of Swap Force, but is luckily repaired by Sharpfin towards the end of the game. Unfortunately, in the comic “Return of the Dragon King” where it is used as an anchor to drag Malefor down to depths of Skylands. He does get it back (albeit without an explanation) in the prequel comic to SuperChargers “Rift into Overdrive”... where it gets sucked into one of the Sky Eater’s rifts and is now likely lost forever.
You and What Army?: Asks this to Count Moneybone when the skeleton invades Boom Town.

Cali

“So you're ready to try a Heroic Challenge huh? Well, let me warn you right off the bat, they're TOUGH. Like me. Want to give one a try?”

^{Click here to see her appearance in SuperChargers.}

Voiced by: Sumalee Montano

A self-proclaimed tough girl. After being rescued by the Skylanders early in Spyro's Adventure, she takes on the role of their personal trainer, overseeing the Heroic Challenges.

Deadpan Snarker: To Flynn's ego; she rolls eyes and Face Palms a lot any time Flynn is speaking.
Demoted to Extra: Just like Hugo was in Giants, in Swap Force, Cali only appears once in an early cinematic. Luckily, she returns in ''Trap Team''.
Distressed Damsel: This poor girl can't catch a break. In Spyro's Adventure, she gets captured by Kaos's army of Drow. In Swap Force (3DS version), Count Moneybone captures Cali and makes her his evil Undead minion. And in Trap Team, the Golden Queen turns Cali into a gold statue. And at the start of SuperChargers, she, along with Flynn, Hugo, and Master Eon, are captured by Kaos.
Straight Man and Wise Guy: She's the Straight Man to Flynn's Wise Guy.
Why Did It Have to Be Snakes?: She has no love of spiders, going by her comments when a Heroic Challenge involves them.

Persephone

"Ready for another magical upgrade?"

^{Click here for her appearance in Superchargers}

Voiced by: Laura Bailey

The fairy from whom you buy new abilities for your characters.

Chuck Cunningham Syndrome: Disappears entirely in Swap Force, replaced in function by "Power Pods".
- The Bus Came Back: She has returned, along with Hugo and Cali, in Trap Team.

Shout-Out: Her strange manner of speech is directly lifed from the Orz from Star Control 2, one of Toys for Bobs previous games. Many of the words and even specific lines come directly from that game.
Strange-Syntax Speaker: She has a very... weird way of saying things. She gets better in Giants, noting that she's learned the language better.

Auric

“If you wish to purchase more high-quality merchandise, please come visit my store.”

Voiced by: Steve Blum

A bear who does business with the Skylanders. After making only a brief appearance in Spyro's Adventure, he tags along on the adventure in Giants in order to sell the Skylanders his wares.

Canon Immigrant/Expy: Of Moneybags from classic Spyro games, though he's much nicer than his inspiration.

Punny Name: After "Au", the periodic notation for gold.
Sharp-Dressed Man: How he is dressed.

Blobbers

Voiced by: Cam Clarke

A recurring Mabu who usually finds himself in trouble.

Ascended Extra: He was mostly just a joke in his appearances, but in Imaginators, he becomes the Skylander's co-partner in the Lost Imaginite Mines level, where he has a way bigger role than he has ever had.
Butt-Monkey: Many of his appearances has him in some sort of bad situation, which he admits is due to his own choices.

Debuting in Giants

Brock

Voiced by: Troy Baker

A Goliath Drow who started out as the leader of the Drows who kidnapped Ermit, but after he is beaten, he starts giving out arena challenges to the Skylander.

The Bus Came Back: After being absent in Swap Force and being replaced by Gurglefin in hosting the arena challenges, Brock returns to that title in Trap Team.
Green and Mean: Initially. After he is beaten, he loses the mean part.
Heel–Face Turn: He goes from using Ermit as bait for the Skylanders and the Skylanders as entertainment for the other inhabitants of Rumbletown to an ally who helps Skylanders sharpening their skills in the form of arena challenges.

Debuting in Swap Force

Tessa

"Ka-BLAM!"

Voiced by: Kari Wahlgren

An energetic and highly skilled resident of Woodburrow in the Cloudbreak Isles who assists the Skylanders in their efforts to safeguard the four elementals.

Ace Pilot: While riding Whiskers
Action Girl: Is able to stall Bubba Greebs single-handedly despite barely coming up to the thing's knees.

Catchphrase: Has two, "Ka-blam!" and "Dragon feathers!"
Distressed Damsel: After being promoted to Chieftess of Woodburrow, Kaos's mom teleports Tessa and Kaos into Kaos's fortress, prompting the Skylanders to go and save her.
Fangirl: Of the Skylanders, and Flynn in particular.

Mother Nature, Father Science: When she is paired up with Flynn throughout the first half of Swap Force. Flynn transports himself and the Skylanders by using machine-powered aircrafts and relies on machines to find his way forward without trusting his instincts, as lampshaded by Tessa who does the opposite, flies on a giant bird for transportation and lives in a village that surronds a giant tree.
You Are in Command Now: She is selected as the successor for the title of Chieftess of Woodburrow.

Whiskers

Whiskers is Tessa's large bird companion and best friend. He serves as Tessa's main choice of transportation.

Brainwashed and Crazy: Gets evilized in Motleyville, forcing the Skylanders to chase him down and beat him back to normal.
"Get Back Here!" Boss: After you hurt him enough when he's evilized, he flies away, forcing the Skylanders to chase him down to beat him back to normal.

Sharpfin

Voiced by: Dave B. Mitchell

Threatening Shark: Fortunately, he and his crew of mechanics make things better, not worse.

Debuting in Trap Team

Buzz

"Boomsticks!"

Voiced by: Travis Willingham

A legendary Skylander trainer and Head of Security and Secret Ninja Commando Operations at Skylanders Academy.

Catchphrase: "Boomsticks!"
Cool Old Guy: Despite missing an eye and a leg, Buzz still insists on directing operations against Kaos from the frontline.
Forgot About His Powers: In the first level of Trap Team, Buzz manages to always stay ahead of the Skylander without being seen thanks to his secret ninja commando skills. But in the final level, he holds Smoke Scream' villain quest and is asking for him to blow up a gate that blocks the circuit breaker to the Ultimate Weapon so Buzz can plant explosives there to blow it up, even though there is nothing surronding the area besides the gate so Buzz should be able to use his skills to go around it.
Generation Xerox: He's actually Flynn's dad and their bombastic attitudes are nearly identical.
Handicapped Badass: He may be missing an eye and is walking on a peg leg, but the guy is still a master of secret ninja commanding skills and can even perform acrobatics.
The Mentor: In SuperChargers, he will train the Skylanders associated with the game. It's not a bad idea to undergo the training, as he will give stat boosts for the Skylander and his/her associated vehicle for each completed task.
Remember the New Guy?: He supposedly has always been a major force for good and originally taught many Skylanders how to fight, yet he doesn't debut until Trap Team.
Took a Level in Jerkass: SuperChargers has him as a much more tougher figure who can dish out more harsher commands, such as already having a raid on the Cloud Kingdom planned in case they wouldn't give the Skylanders the Thunderous Bolt, hiring Greebles from the same catalog as villains just to use them as training dummies and planning to chain up Glumshanks and put him on an island when the troll ended up at Skylander Academy after being fired by Kaos.

Mags

Voiced by: Eliza Schneider

The inventor at Skylanders Academy, and also does about 87 million other things.

Accidental Misnaming: She calls pirates "blueberries" because she once met a pirate named Bluebeard and misheard him when he presented himself.
Catchphrase: "Hot buttered toast!"
Dude, Not Funny!: In Rainfish Riveria, there is a part where you use a big crane to drop her off on a platform so she can activate the bridge for you to cross. You can drop her into the water during this part, to which she will remark for you to stop doing that, with one of her responses saying that she is undead and will be haunting you.
