Skylanders!

[all-things-skylanders]

There are two main things I'll be doing here other than just posting about Skylanders:

I make characters into Skylanders!

On this Gimmick Blog, I will take characters I like, and make Skylanders stats and learnsets! (I will not make Skylander-ized designs for them, that would be a LOT of effort to do every post).

Feel free to Ask characters to be made as well! If I know them or if I can figure out their capabilities easy enough, I'll do it! Please don't submit any majorly controversial characters, but otherwise I don't have any specific don'ts.

Stats will be done using the pre-Imaginators system of: Health, Power, Speed, Critical Hit and Elemental Power.

I make Skylanders headcanons!

It's important to note that I own very few Skylanders books, and I don't have any of the comics, but if you request headcanons of characters, then I will gladly read their wiki pages to be certain that I know everything possible. Though, I generally believe that Vibes matter more than anything. There's some cool stuff from the canon, but Skylanders was also not a franchise designed to have a lot of deep content, so very few characters are what I would consider "compelling" in their base states. (Other than Ghost Roaster, goddam does that dude have a lot on his plate)

So feel free to tell me your favorite characters, and I'll give them some fully fleshed out pasts and personalities!

For both Headcanons and Custom Skylanders, try to avoid using profanity in your reqeusts. I'm a tad forgetful, so I may have cursed a few times in some of these posts, but I'd like to keep this blog mostly entirely kid friendly, since Skylanders as a franchise was meant to be for all ages.

We also have a Discord Server!

This server is intended to be a general community Discord server for any Skylanders fan to share about their collection, art, game experiences, and just generally hang out!

Skylanders has been put on the Xbox game preservation list!

Each game in the series can be voted for once a day, and if they get enough votes, Skylanders as a franchise might be able to be ported to a modern console, beyond just Imaginators on the Switch! Even if you don't use an Xbox, this could be instrumental to reviving this franchise, I highly recommend you take this opportunity to vote as many times as you can!

Pictured here are all the duplicate Skylanders things I have that I can find. They total up to an approximate value of $250, lowballing several items. I would like to sell this lot, so that I can afford some characters I'm hunting that aren't dupes. The full lot wouldn't have to be bought, I'm fine to remove portions of it to be more affordable, if that would make a difference.

I would ask that the buyer covers shipping, and I am willing to negotiate on prices. Portals will be free for the first person/people to order over $50. Payment would be best if sent through Ebay gift cards, as that's where I'd be spending the money anyways. Soonest I could ship them out would probably be around Monday.

All skylanders shown are tested and functional, with many of them being fully upgraded (though most are also not level 20). The Toucan Life Trap contains the chase variant Steamed Broccoli Guy.

I am also willing to potentially do mail based trading, though that would really depend on shipping costs to your area, and it might be more hassle than its worth.

Please message me using the Tumblr messaging, or join the Discord server in my pinned post to talk on there.

Metal Sonic as a Skylander?

Sure thing! Metal Sonic would obviously be a Tech element Skylander, and I think he'd fit best as a Core Skylander, as no gimmick group really fits him.

Stats:

Health: 350 (Level 1), 1050 (Level 20)

Power: 40

Speed: 75

Armor: 50

Critical Hit: 30

Elemental Power: 25

Core Abilities:

Primary - Claw Swipe: Metal Sonic gives a sharp slash with his claws. Press the Primary button 3 times in a row to perform a combo attack, doing a two handed tearing motion with both hands.

Secondary - Plasma Laser: Using the plasma pulse laser on his stomach cavity, Metal Sonic fires a long range laser that will deal multi-hit damage to enemies and slowly push them back. The laser will stay active as long as you hold the button, but if you keep it out for too long, Metal Sonic will overcharge and start dealing damage to himself.

Upgrades (Ordered by cost in gold to purchase):

500 - Tertiary: Speed Boost: Metal Sonic pushes himself past his limits and grows even faster. While in this state, Metal Sonic can't use his normal attacks, but pressing the primary button while in this state will have Metal do a Spin Dash attack that will pierce through enemies. The Speed Boost has a meter with similar length and recharge speeds similar to Wind-Up or Pop Fizz, needing to reach full charge again before it can be re-used.

700 - Enhanced Titanium Plating: Metal Sonic gets a +5 boost to Attack and Defense.

900 - Rivalry: Metal Sonic's desire to always be superior grants him a damage boost while a second player Skylander is on the portal.

1200 - Missile Shot - Pressing the secondary button while in Speed Mode will have Metal fire a missile from his palm that homes in on the closest enemy.

Upgrade Paths:

Path 1 - Optimized Animatronic: Metal Sonic becomes sleeker, faster, and more clearly designed for raw speed than ever before!

1700 - Aerodynamics: Metal Sonic's Speed Boost lasts longer and has a shorter cooldown.

2200 - Mach 3 Artillery: Metal Sonic's Missile Shot travels faster and deals higher damage.

3000 - Keep Momentum: Metal's Spin Dash deals more damage, and recharges the Speed Meter upon hitting enemies, letting Metal Sonic stay in Speed Boost mode indefinitely, assuming he can keep hitting enemies.

Path 2 - Chaos Slugger: Metal Sonic prioritizes the raw power of his servos, enhancing his body until his firepower knows no limits.

1700 - Emerald Crushing Claws: Metal Sonic's Claw Swipe deals increased damage, and the three hit combo now always lands a critical hit.

2200 - Automatic Offense: Every 10-20 seconds, a missile automatically emerges from Metal's back, homing onto the nearest enemy to deal decent damage without input.

3000 - Chaos Laser: Powered by the energy of a Chaos Emerald, Metal Sonic's Plasma Laser no longer can overheat, and deals higher knockback to enemies, slowing them down while they're inside of the beam.

Soul Gem:

4000 - Ultimate Machine: When Metal Sonic defeats an enemy, he analyzes their data and copies what makes them strong. Defeating a fast enemy gives him +1 Speed. Defeating a tanky enemy gives +1 Defense. Defeating a high power enemy gives +1 Attack. Defeating a support enemy gives +1 Critical Hit. All of these stat boosts go awat when the level ends.

Other Stuff:

Not many extra details this time, especially since he's a core, but obviously his catchphrase would be "Hue hue hue hue hue"

Is it alright if I request some Snap Shot headcanons? He was my fav when I was a kid (and still is lol)

Sure thing! Snap Shot's an awesome character with a really interesting design history, so I'm very fond of him. Hope you like what I came up with ^^

Updated Origin Story:

Snap Shot was an ambitious crocagator in a hidden swamp amongst Skylands' deepest rainforests. There, he learned amongst his fellow crocagators how to best hunt the beasts that inhabited their forest. Initially, he was not known by the name of Snap Shot, but instead, he bore the title of 'Bullseye', due to his incredible aim and talent with the simple bows and arrows fashioned by the mystical trees that grew near his village.

Bullseye was able to hunt Chompies with his eyes closed, and many other threats soon followed, until he had eliminated every invasive monster that threatened his people, leaving the swamp a safe ecosystem. That being said, he got quite bored of there not being any more threats to fight against, so eventually, Bullseye left his village to seek out new glory.

Training alongside elves to learn new archery techniques, and amongst wolves to learn to hunt better, Bullseye eventually found a mentor in Wolfgang, a mysterious and aloof werewolf musician with a talent for bowslinging. Wolfgang was able to teach Bullseye things that neither the crocogators, elves or normal wolves ever could, showing his protégé a mix of both styles of combat. Under Wolfgang's tutelage, Bullseye changed his name to Croc Shot. Allured by promises of helping others and becoming the greatest hunter in all of Skylands, Croc Shot hunted whatever beasts his sensei told him to, unaware that he was being used as a weapon by one of the most feared villains in Skylands, his isolated village having never heard of the outlaw.

Eventually, though, Croc Shot began to learn that he and his sensei had a bit of a... reputation, when a blacksmith by the name of Wallop challenged Croc Shot, declaring that he'd never let their villainy into his volcanic homeland.

When Croc Shot confronted Wolfgang about whether they were villains or not, Wolfgang dropped his facade and told Croc Shot that of course they were villains. They've been poaching endangered creatures as big game hunters under the guise of protecting others for months, and Croc Shot had risen up the charts as one of the deadliest villains there is, all completely unaware of it.

Croc Shot was no villain, though. So when he learned this, he fought back against the person who had taught him everything, and alongside Wallop's help, Croc Shot successfully chased Wolfgang away from Wallop's homeland.

Croc Shot renamed himself one final time to Snap Shot, and now fights to protect Skylands to make it up to the world for the harm he did. He and Wallop now lead the Trap Team, a group of Skylanders who's express duty is to keep villains imprisoned. The idea of this group was pitched to Eon by Snap Shot himself, as he desired to seek out Wolfgang and make him pay for his crimes, something that the ancient portal master thought would be an excellent idea.

Other Stuff:

Snap Shot hasn't put a name to his sexuality, but he once had a bit of a crush on Wolfgang, and currently has unconfessed feelings for Wallop.

After the events of Imaginators, Snap Shot keeps a close eye on Wolfgang, not fully trusting that the werewolf has truly redeemed himself, though he is secretly extremely happy that he can have conversations with his old teacher without having to fight him.

Snap Shot's Traptanium bow was forged by Wallop after his original wood bow was destroyed fighting a horde of Chompy Worms, which Snap Shot had underestimated, picturing the monsters to be MUCH smaller than they were.

Snap Shot is a pescatarian, as he feels guilty eating larger game animals after spending so much of his life hunting them and letting their bodies go to waste.

Hello! I would like to open up fanfiction oneshot commissions once more! As it is a slightly hectic time in my life, trying to get a job and fund some personal projects.

I write for fandoms like Murder Drones, Amphibia, The Owl House, The Amazing Digital Circus, and Little Witch Academia. You can also ask if I am familiar with any other fandoms. Regarding tropes, I write a lot of angst, hurt/comfort, rarepairs, etc. The link to my Ao3 account is in my pinned post if you want to see examples of my work.

I charge $1 per 100 words, and my oneshots are usually between 2-4 thousand words, depending on how inspiration strikes and what the commissioner requests.

I will not write smut, proshipping, or anything that promotes bigotry, and I reserve the right to refuse anything I simply do not want to write. Be polite.

If you wish to inquire further, please do so in my private messages!

[genericnam]

Once more opening these commissions for anyone who may wish to have a fanfic written for them!

Adittionally, anyone willing to pay up front, I would offer an increased word count for your fic than what my normal rate entails. Exact amount of extra words would depend on amount paid and what you're looking for. This could allow the fic to become a multi-chap of up to 5 chapters total.

[all-things-skylanders]

Would also write Skylanders fics for folks, that isn't off the table either!

[344j3]

anyway gifmakers i love you fanartists i love you fic writers i love you meta writers i love you fanvid makers i love you people who make fandom fun i love you

[polarpace]

the creature has malicious intent

[all-things-skylanders]

Eon saying that Hugo can't be a Skylander because he's too weak/cowardly was a lie to contain his strength. The real reason is because Kaos' head would have been on a spike in a week, and Skylands would have had to invent the Geneva Convention.
