so im like 80% sure it was confirmed that in every skylanders game there's technically a new portal master but that got me thinking
concept where there's an in universe portal master that experienced all of the games, for a sprinkle of angst maybe they were a child during ssa and had to mature fast as to command their skylanders and drop kick the evil bald child
perhaps they even helped rehabilitate villains by the time of imaginators when some of them become senseis
just some thoughts ive had over the past couple of days and if i actually commit to a full length fic of this you bet im going to throw in some trauma, mental breakdowns, and identity crisis because why not this is a troupe of a child having to grow up way too early and they miss out on most of their childhood and barely learned to be a portal master since eon fricken died and wasn't there to guide them
#skylanders#skylanders spyro's adventure#skylanders giants#skylanders swap force#skylanders trap team#skylanders superchargers#skylanders imaginators#if i end up disappearing and writing a 19 chapter 90k word fic you know why now#totally having sonic boom help them throughout the first few games while theyre still a child because we need slme wholesome mama griffon#for them before i put thrm through whatever im going to put them through#muahahah

Not Just A Fairytale
The Thieves Guild had said that these Realms were off limits for generations, but none of the Elder's had explained just why that was so to the younger. Just had said there was a good reason no one went to the Dragon Realms anymore, after the last endeavor there had failed spectacularly.
There were stories of course, that were told to every new thief. About their nightmare, never named. Always spoken of with the same sort of fearful reverence one gives a force that's so much stronger then them. If anything had to be used always a pronoun.
He. Him.
Like some sort of vengeful force of nature or something. It was so infuriating that no one explained anything. They'd even forbidden travel to the Dragon Realm, had put the portal in a room that was forbidden to go into.
The door wasn't locked, as it was a thing of trust to not go in, there were legitimate dangers in the room. Potions that are volatile if jostled off the shelf, books of old magic that wasn't safe for 90% of magic users, among other things.
The portal still worked though, despite attempts to close it or otherwise shut it down, a little extra intent with the runes as they were re-carved and all was fixed. The Dragon Realm was….calm, warm. It was sunny and…peaceful. It felt like an easy target.
The thief slipped from the portal and after a moment to adjust to the light. Walked out into the soft grass, there was a lot more life around then they were used to. The Thieve's Den was mostly underground after all.
Then the sound of laughter, children? Head turned…no hatchlings, a group of five of different sizes, the baby dragons looked about toddler aged, enough to talk and get around even if unsteady. Their attention wasn't on the hatchlings, they were a thief not a monster, but the gem that was being played with.
A brilliant multifaceted diamond that sent soft rainbows over the grass and scales of the youngsters that treated it like a ball. Any common sense faded in front of the sight, the knowledge of that it would bring them a fortune at the market, they had to have it.
They rushed at the hatchlings, more to scare them then anything, and they grabbed the gem quickly with mischievous giggling. They barely heard the panicked squeaking- tiny cries too young to be intimidating.
They almost stumbled at the answering roar that felt like it shook the ground. The beat of wings that made them almost fall from the force, head snapped up and the sky was blocked out from the massive form that surged from the mountain, no had been the mountain, across the view like a heat seeking comet.
All at once the stories that the thief had been told, that they'd disregarded because of being so young, of it being said like a fairytale and not fact, came rushing back to the forefront of their mind.
A behemoth of violet scales, wings powerful enough to make the sky split in two with a single beat, there was a brief inhale and then a roar of flame as the grass around them immediately ignited and the scent of scorched earth filled their nose.
Even if it should've been impossible, the way their heart pounded in their chest told them they weren't dreaming. The ground shook as the mountain landed, they were staring that 'fairytale' that they’d dismissed and scoffed at right in the face.
Sharp eyes the color of amethyst, a maw that could easily swallow them whole and fangs larger then their body bared in a snarl that vibrated the air around them and made them shudder. The thief couldn't breathe in panic, everything felt muffled and dizzied and too sharp.
It was Him.
They dropped the gemstone and as the fire at their back dwindled they bolted as fast as they could. They didn't care if their robes caught on fire all they knew was that they were never coming back. They'd plead for forgiveness from the Elder and guard the portal room if that was what it took.
There was a snort as the thief ran off, the snarl faded and Spyro shook his great head with a huff of air. A paw curled around the gemstone to pull it closer from the dying fire, even diamonds could crack under dragon fire.
Little voices called out half in relief and half in happiness as the sound of little feet on the grass echoed behind him.
"Grandpa!"
A softly rumbling laugh slipped out as five tiny bodies glomped into his side under a wing. A fond fanged grin slipped into place, eyes gentled as he looked down at them, voice a reassuring thrum in his chest.
"It's alright now little ones, the threat is gone. Your toy is safe but more importantly so are you all."
The hatchlings all looked up at him, gem bright eyes still watery from the recent scare as the younger sniffled and one of the older's lip wobbled a bit. Spyro's heart ached as he was soft to the sight of upset as any good grandparent would be. They nodded and he pushed the 'ball' back and then shifted to curl around them. Tail lazily curled up as he stretched his hind legs out and his wings settled over his back.
"Why don't I tell you all a story huh? Will that make you feel better?"
As expected of any children the prospect of a story immediately caught their attention and any upset disappeared as they nodded and got comfortable. He chuckled softly in amusement and fondness, a story always worked.
"Alright then…now which one. I've already told you guys about Gnasty Gnorc…Ripto…hmmm."
A soft, slightly admonishing, buzz didn't even make him look up. A wizened, slowed but not any less agile dragonfly eased to his shoulder, the weight as slight as air but familiar, the golden glow of his companion a bit faded with age.
A soft laugh left Spyro in response to the admonishment tone and he grinned completely unrepentant, teeth glimmered white in the sunlight as birds began to chirp again as peace resettled in the glade.
"Sorry old friend, I was in a bit of a hurry. You missed all the fun, and now I need to decide on a story for these little ones."
A series of buzzes only he understood, accent too old for others not his age to coherently work through. He nodded.
"Yeah, you're right Sparx. I think it's time I told you guys about my adventure in the Forgotten Realms."
The hatchlings all gasped in delight and perked up, immediately questions flew, voices young and some words stumbled over and others more articulate given how they'd managed to grasp it so far.
"Is dis the story of t'big meanie Sorceress?"
"An met Auntie Bianca?"
"When you helped our Mamies, Daddies and Rens?"
"Were you weally tiny like us Gwanpa?"
"Were you scared?"
A fond, thundering laugh rang in the air as his head tilted back, golden scales on his throat and chest glittered in the sunlight. He shook his head and smiled, amethyst eyes as bright as gemstones in his mirth.
"Hold on, hold on. Yes, this is about when I fought the Sorceress to rescue your parents, met Auntie Bianca with your Uncle Hunter. Yes, I was tiny like you all once and no, I wasn't scared. But let me tell the story ok?"
It wouldn't be the full story, so to speak. It would be the one almost everyone knew, Spyro's victory over a sorceress who had stolen the eggs, how he'd made friends and saved realms that had been forgotten but were now freed of the cruelty they'd been under.
But what he wouldn't tell them was what had happened years afterwards, when he'd been old enough to explore things thoroughly. When he'd gone back to the Sorceress' castle as a more capable dragon…
When he'd found the memory scroll for what had driven Dragons out of the Forgotten Realms in the first place. It wasn't just an argument like he'd been told at first.
When he'd found the dormant, too long gone eggs, just about to hatch but the magic drained before they could break free of the shells.
The bones in an old cauldron, so small and delicate they’d almost crumbled at movement…
When he'd found the contract with the Thieves Den for stolen eggs of ages past.
The fury he'd felt had been enough to raze the castle to the ground, the draconian burial rite seen to by his own flame as his maturity had been skyrocketed further forward. His body pushed to broaden, strengthen and his fire to intensify faster than normal as his instincts roared at him, demanding he be able to enact revenge for the pure lives cut short for greed.
The same fate that had befallen the thieves, all those involved had died by tooth and claw as flame had been too quick a punishment, the vault and treasure they had gained rendered useless molten slag underfoot. The younger generation allowed to live with a warning. No. A promise.
No more children.
But that was then, he looked into the so innocent small eyes and eager expressions and felt the pain of old grief in his chest ease some. This was now.
A soft, wistful smile slipped on his face as Spyro regaled his grandchildren with the story.
"We had just had a party for all the eggs being so close to hatching, it had been a lot of sleepless nights to make sure everyone was ok. We kind of partied a bit too hard and fell asleep in piles around the eggs…"

Chapter 5 of my fic is up on Ao3!
This chapter took me way too long to finish, so I'm thinking I might take a breather and skip next week's upload. We'll see how it goes lol.
As for the artwork for this chapter, it's nothing too out-there, but I decided to try some new stuff for the background and lighting/shading, and I think it looks quite nice. It's not something I'd use in all my art, but it's good for drawings like this and my comic that I want to be able to do quickly.
[ID 1: An image of Valori, a dark red dragoness with bright red eyes, wearing dark, metal armour, looking back at the viewer. In the background is a forrest of trees with blue leaves at nighttime. In the top left corner is a logo that reads "The Legend of Cynder, The Flame of Darkwick" /End ID 1] [ID 2: A copy of the first image, just with the logo removed. /End ID 2]

So question about your au, are you going to adapt it into something like a written fanfiction or a comic, or is it something you've just been playing around with and you wanna see where it goes?
I've been wanting to answer this for a long time... but I cannot fully explain what I want to do.
Part of me wants to make it legit, not just a fan thing, I would love to give Skylanders, and a Spyro TV show a second chance, especially surrounding the conversation of Mental Health and Family and portraying it correctly and in a healthy manner.
Buuuuuuuuutttt it'll be how life goes !

Suggest a character and a colour palette and I'll draw them in MS Paint:
I saw this trend going around YEARS ago here on Tumblr, but never got around to doing it myself. Now it's time!
I made this layout myself, since similar challenges had at least 5 colour palettes I didn't like, and I didn't want to get demotivated. Also, all the colours are colourpicked from the PS1 Spyro games.
Put your suggestions in my Ask Box!~
Also feel free to use my challenge.

Yk I've just become aware of the fact that I could literally write anything (legal) on this site and it won't matter because nobody knows me.
And in that case
Would genuinely love a full fic or game fusing
Sonic, Mario, Crash Bandicoot (and maybe Spyro but there's like a difference between Skylanders Spyro...and Spyro Spyro so um not sure about that)
Context doesn't really matter but I've always imagined it as Eggman and Dr. Neo Cortex manipulating Bowser since a whole army of semi animals aswell as different sources sounds phenomenal
But there are a plethora of Mario bosses and it doesn't even have to focus on Mario bosses (that's just what my default was).
Something about Mario and sonic beefing while some bandicoot is just in the background destroying boxes and spinning is just hilarious to me.
Uh yeah that's it
#crash bandicoot#spyro the dragon#super mario#video games#collaboration#sonic the hedgehog#i love writing nonsense without properly understanding the game lore because im too lazy to actually start yet once i do i can't stop

I finally retrieved the ancient texts from my storage unit
aka the "books" I made from the ages of like 9-12(??) by writing and drawing on printer paper (or just notebook paper!!) and then stapling them together, I'd do a lil cover and everything, I'd write a summary on the back like Real Books Have, and I was so proud of them
and I have kept them all. and now. I decided to look at them once more. the relics from as early as 2005..
so. You guys wanna see an unfinished dragon comic written by a 10-year-old?? haha yeah you do c'mere
Super Dragons #1. Rhynoc Trouble With Powder
Written and illustrated by (full name redacted for privacy reasons)
This is labeled #1 but I never did more lmaoo let's dive into this mess
(rest will be under the cut, along with transcriptions of the writing because it didn't scan very well but also I just had terrible handwriting and the crayons smudged like hell. I WILL preserve any spelling or grammar mistakes in my transcription so you can really get an idea of my skill level back then)
So first off can I just say. I am. OBSESSED with how I would consistently draw dragon wings backwards, ignoring my older brother who constantly pointed it out to me and I was like "no they're not", until I eventually paid more attention and tried following some tutorials on how to draw Spyro-style dragons and I was just like ohh. Okay. Yeah. I'll fix that.
Also I like that while Deserae is a "sun dragon" she has no features that would make you think that, she's just a magenta and pink dragon. Though in retrospect I'd suppose that'd make for a fun subversion of expectations. My thinking was clearly next level. So, the text:
Once upon a time, there was a brave dragon. Her name was Deserae. She controls the Sun. When awake, the Sun is bright. When asleep, the Moon comes out. But one day, Deserae overheard a group of Rhinocs talking about keeping her asleep, so that the Sun will never come out. Deserae was devastated! She saw Permanate Sleeping Powder. That's what they were going to use!
Deserae: (thinking) That one Rhinoc has a fat head
Unnamed Rhynoc: We'll put her to sleep with Powder!
Now here's a fun thing of note, young me insisted on trying to fit characters fully into the panel instead of just letting parts go past the borders, so. Keep an eye on parts like tails going forward because it's ridiculous what I did with them sometimes. I also would have characters like, think about random stuff I personally thought was funny while drawing, or they'd explain things unnecessarily. idk why, it's just what I did
Spyro jumpscare! Deserae makes a badly done flier trying to find a bodyguard (if she has such an important role why does she not already have one? who knows) and surprise, Spyro answers the call. Because he's a heroic guy and that's what he does <3 And bigger surprise, he and Deserae immediately fall in love. He was a boy, she was a girl, can I make it anymore obvious?
Deserae started to make posters to get protection. She isn't a good drawer, but it worked!
The poster reads "WANTED BODY GUARD. FOR INFO CALL 111-2531"
In just 1 hour Spyro called. He did it for free! (An arrow points at Spyro, labeling him as Spyro) Deserae accepted him. Spyro got to Deserae as fast as possible. Spyro and Deserae fell in love with each other as soon as they met.
Spyro: (thinking) She's the girl for me.
Deserae: You're handsome.
Spyro said, "So... What is it you need to be protected from?" Deserae told him all about the Rhynocs and the Permanate Sleeping Powder. They went off to find the Rhynocs.
Spyro: (thinking) Great! Tracks!
Spyro and Deserae headed to the lake. There wasn't anything there. The volcano did not have anything either. Finally they came to a forest.
Spyro: They might be in the forest!
They found a bag of the Sleeping Powder. Spyro destroyed it, but little did they know, it was a fake!
Meanwhile...
Unnamed Rhynoc 1: Where did I put that Sleeping Powder?
Unnamed Rhynoc 2: How should I know!? (while thinking 'It's in the safe.')
Back to the dragons...
Spyro: At least we got rid of the Sleeping Powder.
So he thought. The real Powder was in the metal safe.
Spyro had to use the bathroom, so he ran off and left Deserae.
Deserae: Hurry up!
Unfortunately, the Rhynocs heard that Spyro had stopped protecting her. They headed her way.
Unnamed Rhynoc: Sun dragon! You're mine!
The Rhynocs found Deserae and shot a net on her. Then they carried her away.
Deserae: No!
Deserae got bored in the room they put her in. So she decided to work on her fire power. Suddenly, Deserae changed color to confuse the Rhinoc!
Unnamed Rhynoc: WHAT IS THAT NOISE!?
Note: I love how I keep switching between spelling it as Rhinoc and Rhynoc. For the record, they're a classic Spyro enemy and Rhynoc is the correct spelling, I believe. Meanwhile, Deserae's color swap was done entirely because I was using a different set of crayons from the usual ones and had to use different pinks for her, so I just decided to make the color switch a part of the story. Lmaoo
The Rhinoc opened the door and Deserae flamed him accidently. Another Rhinoc came running and saw her. But he was so stupid he let her out because he thought she was another dragon.
Desarae: I must find Spyro! (while thinking 'Idiot')
Rhynoc: Beat it!
Deserae got back to the forest's entrance. Spyro was laying down, sleeping. Deserae shot a flame at him to wake him up.
This is what happened...
Spyro: What the... Deserae! Is that you?
Deserae: Duh. Oh wait, I'm still a different color.
I adore how my sequence of events here is Spyro going off to use the bathroom, Deserae gets taken in the meantime, and apparently when he gets back and can't find her, he just... lays down to take a nap?? Okay man. Sure
Spyro went to find some sleep. Deserae turned back to shades of red-violet.
Deserae: My horn bent! (While thinking 'I'll have to fix it...')
Deserae headed to the lake for a drink and some fish. It's very dark water.
Suddenly, and trust me when I say I don't know how it happened, Snape from Harry Potter walked up.
Deserae: Snape! I like your daring! I do stupid things too!
Deserae: (thinking) Is that a dress or robe? His skin is pale.
Snape: Do I know you? (While thinking 'Dragons are big...')
Snape ran away for unknown reasons. Deserae found Spyro.
Spyro: Stop doing that!
Deserae: It does work. (While thinking 'I'm good at talking while flaming')
aand that's it. I never got further than that. The goddamn Snape cameo hit me like a truck, god. I forgot I just threw him into this for no reason. He's there for one entire panel and just runs off again. Good riddance.
So yeah, that's Super Dragons. Again, I love Spyro walking away from the person he agreed to protect to go sleep, and she again just went and found him and flamed him to wake him up. That probably would have been a running joke if I kept writing this. There's also how they fell in love at first sight, only for that to proceed to just not be relevant for the rest of it. Spyro/Deserae I guess
But yeah looking back at this was SO fun, yeah there's very little artistic talent but nonetheless, I had an idea and I followed it, and ya gotta respect that. Everyone starts somewhere, and that's where I started with learning to write and draw. With silly lil dragon stories like this, many of which didn't get finished or shared, but any practice was still valuable. For anyone who decided to read through this whole post, I hope you've enjoyed taking a look at my oldest creative works. I might scan and share more of my old "books", I'll use the tag 'my old writing' for any of it, lemme know if you're interested in seeing more! :D

Mean to Her.

For whatever reason, one of my favourite things is using a character's hair as a means of characterization and/or symbolizing character development. And I just wanna babble about two super specific instances of how I'm using it in my own writing and character design. More below, so I don't clog up any dashes with my random babbling! Also, this is purely off the top of my head, so things may change or be a little skewed.
Nezuko Kamado - Sunlit Blossoms
Yep! Nezuko is one of them! It's honestly gonna be so much more prevalent when we get to Hashira Training, but I definitely wanna talk about how I use Nezuko's hair to symbolize a lot in her story.
First, we have the initial haircut in chapter 6 of Sunlit Blossoms. When Nezuko goes from hip length hair to just brushing her shoulders. To me, this symbolizes quite a bit when I think of how I wrote this story. Nezuko made this choice for practicality's sake, but also as a reminder of her promise to turn Tanjirou back into a human and kill Kibutsuji. While the length varies a little, her hair doesn't go past her shoulders for most of the story afterwards. She carefully maintains that length limit. She doesn't give it up. Just like she's not giving up her fight. In my head, this haircut is a symbol of Nezuko giving up her past, her childhood, her carefree life and the innocence she had with it.
Then we get to the red streak she gets in Mount Natagumo. This is, as many have guessed, because of her Sun Breathing. It's to show she's taken the biggest first step in truly mastering the technique. To joining Tanjirou, their father, and their paternal ancestors in a long line of Sun Breathers. And every step she takes in learning or using something Yoriichi once did? It expands. It never covers her entire head(which could be a symbol of how, much like Tanjirou, she will never truly master Sun Breathing the way Yoriichi or even her father did), but it keeps expanding until she masters all the techniques she needs to have the best chance humanly possible.
Now, coming back to the length. Nezuko's hair does grow past her shoulders during her post-Entertainment District Arc coma, and she doesn't think to cut it again until after she completes Himejima's section of Hashira Training. During this time, Nezuko has a bit more of a chance to just be a teenage girl. She can relax and act like she's fourteen years old, rather than like a hardened soldier. She's allowed to have back just a little bit of her child-like innocence, even if it's brief.
Then, after that, she cuts her hair one more time before the final battle. The shortest she ever cuts it. And not only that, she leaves behind her ribbon after this last haircut. I haven't sorted out the specific symbolism for this. It's meant to be significant, though. Probably symbolizes Nezuko going from relaxed and a little carefree to full on Battle Mode.
Cynder - LoS Human!AU
Yeah, this one struck me mid-sketch. But it came to me, slapped me in the face, and inspired the whole post. Thanks, random story idea!
So, if you've seen my Human!Cynder design, you know I tend to design her with her hair in a specific style. Six dutch braids that gather into one large braid in the back, the six braid referencing her horns in her dragon design. But I have some ideas now!
So, let's begin at... well... A New Beginning! AKA when Cynder is the BBEG. Not only do I plan to have her in armour, I plan for her hair to be fully slicked back and tied back tight enough to be fit for a dance recital(speaking from experience. If you didn't look ten years younger in the recital hairstyle, ya weren't doing it right!/hj). It's meant to represent just how restrained she is. How strict her life has been since her corruption.
Then, after the battle in Convexity, her hair will be loose. At first, it's completely loose. Hair is untied, she's been given the freedom to let it hang in her face. Just like how she now has the space and freedom to relax and not worry about the war. In the post-credit scene, her hair would be in a loose braid. In that same scene, she and Spyro share the sentiment of having a bad feeling despite the fact all seems calm.
Then we go to The Eternal Night. Here, Cynder's going to have the hairstyle I came up with in the first stages of her design. The braids. They're maybe a little messy, definitely not as smooth as her Queen of Conquer look, but much tighter than her uncorrupted ANB looks. At least when she leaves the Temple to try and discover her own identity and destiny. After she gets captured, she looks a lot smoother when facing Gaul. Maybe her look got cleaned up before being brought to him. As a way to show she's more trapped now. It loosens again when she tries to land a hit on Gaul, then the remainder of TEN happens.
In Dawn of the Dragon, her look obviously doesn't change much. Not until the fight with Malefor. Either she loses the hair tie in the fight, or the loose end of her big braid gets hacked off in the fight, but Cynder goes from braid to ponytail at the tail end of that fight. Pun not intended. She's being freed more the closer she and Spyro get to winning.
And then, after Spyro restores the world? In that ending where they're playing in what seems to be Avalar? Except for the Dutch braids, her hair is completely loose again. She's free. She's able to be herself.
