#skylanders headcanons

[snoof-is-a-bug-enjoyer]

Tell me more about ur swappers found family hc im genuinely so in love with this idea. Im so used to people seeing them as partners or poly but this is SO MUCH BETTER

i kinda thought of it on a whim tbh

i figured since they all had to leave their families(if they had one that is) or those close and their homes to them to becme skylanders that they would crave that familiar connection, so the sf would find solace in each other and form their own familial bonds

to them swapping their halves is no different then borrowing your siblings clothes

granted i do have two ships that i really like with them, the obvious wash buckler and blast zone, then i have rubble rouser and rattle shake bc snakes lay on rocks idk i thought it was cute, but thats pretty much it

ive never been asked about my head canons before this was fun :3

musings about hex again

this is a plea for aid from any Skylanders mutuals I have/enjoyers in general because I wanted to make a fun little relationship graph for hex with the other undead only for her to canonically interact with cynder and no one else 💔💔💔

praying I am looking in the wrong places but this is an open invite to share ur headcanons with me!!! I'm focusing on cynder, chop chop, ghost roaster, eye-brawl, fright rider, roller brawl, batspin and nightshift but will gladly hear any thoughts about others if you have any!!

more art coming soon I promise I've been too umamusume pretty derby pilled the last couple days I need to lock in 😭😭

[ummmmwhatwasthat]

Umm ok first Skylanders Head-cannon/Worldbuilding , YAY

So heres what I think some historic events in Skylands history would be and what they would be called and why. (Warning, its gonna be LONG)

Now here my Extended Rant:

(Events of the First Game): The Great Skylands War - I feel like this is self Explanatory, with the core of light destroyed and the loss of Master Eon, This name feels appropriate.

(Events of the Second Game): The Giants Race- Skylanders: Giants truly feels like a race, between the constant trailing after Kaos and always feeling just one step behind in the Arkeyan Armory. Also not to mention the fact that the hub world is quite literally Flynns ship on the run.

(Second Game): The Repose Contract/The Wow Pow Act

All Skylanders who help in any disaster get recognition, Special Recognition goes specifically to New Recruits

UNLESS a Skylander learns a new distinct new ability through the sheer determination of wanting to help, they get Special Recognition as a “Repose”

(This is me trying to fit Reposed Skylanders into the lore somehow lol)

(Events of the Third Game) The CloudBreak Affair- I chose this name specifically because I feel like a theme of passing Power is showcased in Swap-Force quite strongly. We see the theme’s of shifting power in both Tessa (Becoming Chieftess) and Kaos (losing power to his Mother).

Also because I feel like this is one of Kaos’ most well thought out plans, if he had succeeded in getting just ONE of the Elementals, the very Magic that holds Skylands together would turn evil….so props I guess

(In between the Third and Fourth games) The Woodburrow-Academy Negotiations I

All Skylanders are allowed to stay at the Woodburrow base while the new Skylanders Academy is being Built.

(Fourth Game) The Doom Raider Crisis- I feel like this one is obvious, the absolute panic the denizens of Skylands must have felt when they learned that like all 50 of their Most Wanted were just loose….so yeah a Crisis if I’ve ever seen one. Also the mass amounts of pressure the Skylanders must have been in from the public to catch them….again crisis if I’ve ever seen one.

(In between the events of the Fourth and Fifth Games) The Woodburrow-Academy Negotiations II

Now revised due to two reasons

-The amount of Skylanders increased

-The completion of the Academy

Now, Skylanders that “belong” to the academy (All skylanders that were not introduced during Swap-Force) are only permitted to stay at the Woodburrow base if their mission draws them to the Cloudbreak Islands.

Skylanders that “belong” the Woodburrow base (All skylanders introduced in Swap-Force) are allowed at both at anytime.

(Woodburrow is way too small to fit the amount of Skylanders that exist at this time in my opinion)

(Events of the Fifth Game) The Great Skylands War II

You CAN’T tell me this doesn’t make sense, so much of SuperCharger’s story parallels the original game: We lose Master Eon (again) the Core of light gets destroyed (again).

For all of SuperChargers faults, I LOVE it’s story the amount of helplessness the players feels knowing that the game STARTS with Kaos having almost all of Skylands under his hand… amazing.

(Right Before the events of the Fifth Game) The SL-10 Initiative

Any Skylanders that want to commit and re-train from the ground up under a New Recruit (a Supercharger) will be eligible for a Rift-Engine

(What I think happened for old skylanders to get rift engines)

(In between the Events of the Fifth and Sixth game) The Villain Rehabilitation Program-

Villains in cloudcracker prison that want to change are allowed to return to the academy under supervision to work in the library and work towards a better life (Voluntary)

(Events of the Sixth Game) The Imaginators Scare -

I’m gonna call it this due to the fact that we randomly get to see one of the Ancient’s alive and well, I can’t Imagine what went through the minds of Skylands at this time.

(During the Events of the Sixth Game) The Crystal Decree-

- Any Skylanders born from Imagination Crystals are to be under Sensei supervision until given permission to work alone in the field

(I feel like the Skylanders born from the Imagination Crystals would need extra long training periods)

Yeah…this is kinda what been floating around in my head for the last…two weeks, I kinda love how little lore Skylanders gives us because it allows fans to come up with all sorts of ideas (Like me :) )

Any questions?? Please Ask me!! I would LOVE to answer :D

[plasticbabyart]

What does Stealth Elf think of Dark Spyro, Whisper Elf, Jet Vac, Light Spyro (if she's aware of him at all), and normal Spyro post-betrayal and the "oh he's not very stable right now" moment when they see he REALLY needs some therapy after this?

Okay Im gonna go character by character to make this easy !!

Whisper Elf;

I actually only learned of her recently !! And I liked the idea she is Stealth Elfs little sister, so I half borrowed the idea into her being a part of Elfs' long lost family!! When she finally meets Whisper Elf she treats her like protégée and trains her to be a great Skylander much like herself!

She's protective, but unlike Spyro with his family, she trusts Whisper to look after herself!

Jet-Vac;

She sees him as a Father figure!! Having grown up at the Academy, JV was the most understanding of her emotionally as she was growing up, he was always encouraging but strict when needed. She will never admit it, but he knows the Fathers Day gifts left on his desk are from her.

Dark Spyro;

HATES him. He deceived her, tried to kill her, and tried to deceive her again. After his resurrection, even if everyone else believed he changed, she didn't. She would never trust him again and felt even more justified after he mistakenly frees Strykore again.

Light Spyro;

If she were aware? HATE. HATE HATE HATE. He's Spyro, but self absorbed, emotionless, a true husk of himself, nothing but a deity to represent peace amongst the worlds. But Peace doesn't exist, does it? The dragons sacrificial lamb is how she would see it. She either loses her best friend to Evil or to Perfection. She prefers him how he comes.

Spyro (AfterMath);

She misses him, but she's not sure if she can trust him. Is it safe? Will he run again? What if he is still evil? Where the actions of Dark Spyros his own? She doesn't know, and she can't help him till she helps herself.

New Headcanon for Free Ranger

My research of chickens and their eyesight as well as a little too much reading into Free Ranger's canon bio has led to this headcanon.

Dude's a complete weenie when it comes to jumpscares. He's a prey animal with obscenely fast visual processing and stupidly good reflexes. He's hard to sneak up on, let alone actually catch off-guard. So if you do?

Full on chicken screech (and he's a rooster so believe he can put force behind those lungs) and he probably whips up a storm all over whoever got him because you just triggered his most primal of animal instincts.

Because of this, he manages to be amazing at FNaF through the power of sheer terror and reflexes. Fear is a great motivator.

Skylanders Headcanons, But It's Just (some of) my Faves

Dino-Rang

Has some of the best stories from his old days. Somebody would definitely be interested in hearing about them.

The reason why he hates being called a "dragon" was because of how his tribe made fun of him when he was younger. That's something he's sensitive about. Leave him be.

He holds a vendetta against wizards/witches/sorcerers, mostly because of the incident. Funnily enough, he does seem to get along with Voodood the Orc.

Because he's a dinosaur, he does get the urge to bite things. When he's especially upset, he does bite people. Usually he does keep this habit in check, sometimes gnawing on his boomerangs (it's weird, but it works).

Free Ranger

Surprisingly good with children. They always like to hang around him, due to his fun, adventurous persona. He's also extremely protective.

He and Stormblade were friends before the two became Skylanders. Free Ranger may or may not have been responsible for Stormblade's quest to find the bottom of Skylands. They're still relatively close, and the two have a mentor-apprentice type relationship.

He's also had his escapades with Jet-Vac (mostly, it was just Jet trying to make sure he didn't kill himself). Eon definitely put Jet-Vac in charge of watching over Free Ranger (or training him, depending on who you ask).

(Semi-Canon) Free Ranger dislikes enclosed spaces because he has to move. If he doesn't move for a small period of time, he would explode (figuratively, not literally).

Slobber Tooth

(Semi-Canon) He has a BIG appetite. If you aren't careful, he would raid your pantry. Maybe it's because he was sleeping for thousands of years.

(Semi-Canon) He isn't incredibly smart, but he also isn't dumb as bricks, either. He knows his own strength, and he also knows better not to eat the other Skylanders (from common sense, y'know).

His jaw is very strong, strong enough to chew through most metal, rocks, and... anything, really. Gotta get some iron in your diet somehow.

Snap Shot

Would (and probably has) wrestle with a Fire Viper when given the chance.

Very competitive, but he isn't a sore loser.

(Semi-Canon) He's extremely popular amongst all of the citizens of Skylands, and a lot of kids idolize him. However, he's very modest, and a little bit shy and bashful around his fans.

Him and Wolfgang have had their own fair share of... err, escapades. After Wolfgang was accepted as a Skylander, they both have a friendly rivalry, constantly trying to one-up eachother.

Stormblade

Stormblade's willingness to become a Skylander grew when she first met Jet-Vac when he visited her village. She was told that she would have to "be a bit older" before she could join. Soon after, Free Ranger took her under his wing (no pun intended) and helped train her into who she is.

She's a bit of a perfectionist, and is always trying to push herself. However, she's also incredibly wreckless, leading her to getting seriously hurt because she doesn't know her own limits.

She has a friendly rivalry with Spitfire, another daredevil.

Incredibly empathetic.

Thrillipede

Tells some of the stupidest, yet funniest jokes (dad jokes).

If you don't have a dad, he is your dad now. You have no choice in the matter.

While he doesn't look to be the type, he actually enjoys baking as a hobby. He makes a really good cheesecake.

(Semi-Canon) He and Buzz go way back, and by way back, I mean they were friends since high school. They were a force to be reckoned with, and they still talk about the old times together.

Nightfall species headcanons!

Nightfall mouth HC based on eels (first one, where she has sharp teeth and a second set of jaws on the throat) and squids (last one, where she simply has a radula beak, eating by griding food on her mouth).

Tentacles/hair headcanon if she's based off squids, meaning she'd have 8 arms and 2 longer feeding tentacles... 10 in total.

8

I guess I'll do all four for this one. Some include OCs lol ^^

Hex x Flameslinger: Hex at first got the same impression many people got with Flameslinger: thinking he was a show off and nothing more because of his blindfold and bow. Flameslinger was admittedly intimidated because others tried to tell him Hex was cold and unfeeling when he first became a Skylander. It definitely took a while for them to get to know eachother for real.

Tsuyu x Tonbo (oc): for the lil Dragonfly quirk guy, it was love at first sight, Tsuyu was and still is very beautiful to him. Tsuyu admittedly thought he was a kid who got lost for a moment until he spoke, and realized he was just short.

Peach x Fritz (oc): Peach in the au secretly has a preference for short guys and Hylians. Hylians are usually pretty tall, so imagine how surprised she was to meet a short Hylian. And of course Fritz immediately found Peach very beautiful, and some think he's a bit of a simp when he works himself to the bone to clean her castle.

Odd crossover ship: Samus x Mega man (since my AU Mega man is a 19 year old named Xavier): Xavier was low key intimidated and very impressed by how this seasoned warrior could fight. Being a Demi, actual romantic and sexual attraction didn't develop until several dimensional crossovers later. Samus on the other hand, was admittedly quite smitten, despite not looking like it on the outside. She doesn't look like it, but she's actually a very sweet and loving Pansexual... she just never stopped to think about it until meeting people through dimensional crossovers.
