Is it just me, or does Tri-Tip feels like a second attempt at Dino-Rang? Both are of the Earth Element, both are dinosaurs, both have a trap setting move...

I dunno, maybe part of me really wants to look for analogs between the first and the last Skylanders game.

A romantic moodboard of Fling Kong x Dino-Rang (Dino-Fling) (Skylanders).

Fling Kong and Dino-Rang have been my Skylanders OTP for many years, so it's time they get a ship moodboard.

Ship names: Dino-Fling, Fling Rang, and Dino-Kong.

noticed something so i decided to make a meme out of it (can you tell what my favorite pr character archetype is)

edit: just wanted to clarify that this isn't me calling rj dumb by any means 😭😭 he's easily one of the smartest if not the smartest character in jf and i know his hippie behavior doesn't reflect on his actual intelligence; it's just funny how all of them canonically have doctorates/have "dr." in their titles except him

And these completed Earthy bois that I apparently never posted

Dino-Rang's abilities from Skylanders: Ring of Heroes (Skylanders: Ring of Heroes, 2018)

[skylanders-reimagined]

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.

Can I request Tri tip

Yes you can! I have little experience with the character myself, but he's got a cool design, and Smasher is my favorite class of Imaginator, even if I sadly haven't obtained any of the Sensei Smashers.

After looking at his moveset, I can confirm, Tri Tip looks like an absolute delight to play!

Updated Origin Story:

Tri-Tip was the chief of a faraway band of Dinosaur Hunters, renowned for their skill and strength. Among his tribe were many elites, but his closest friend and second in command was a stout, boomerang wielding beast by the name of Dino-Rang. The two of them traveled across continents beyond the world of Skylands together with their band of warriors, taking down prey that could dwarf even Arkeyans with their teamwork and gargantuan strength.

However, one thing that the band of dinosaurs had never faced in their homelands was magic. When a group of Spell Punks made their way to the home of Tri-Tip, he and his group fought them off, the same way that they would to any other invader, but they were caught in a ritual of teleportation magic, sending the group scattered across the universe.

Tri-Tip landed in Skylands, where he was nursed back to health by a village of Mabu. He learned from the Mabu that there was a legendary plant known as the Warping Walnut Tree that teleported across all of Skylands, never appearing in the same place twice. Anyone who could open one of its golden walnuts would supposedly be granted the knowledge to fix their greatest problems.

It took years, but Tri-Tip eventually made it to the tree, collecting a single walnut before it teleported away once again. When he tried to open it with his powerful horns, he had no success.

Tri-Tip was told by the Mabus that he should seek out the Skylanders, since they're the strongest warriors in all the lands, and Tri-Tip did just that, meeting with each group consecutively to try and find someone to crack the walnut. The legendary King Pen of the Senseis had no luck, nor did running the nut over with Superchargers. Wallop's hammers were to no avail, and neither was the bombs of Blast Zone. When even the mighty Tree Rex couldn't even crack the nut, Tri-Tip was about ready to give up.

Tri-Tip forged a powerful mace using a piece of each and every skylander team. Its handle was made of Imaginite, to fuel his will. Its head was an alloy of Traptanium and Supercharger steel, for maximum power, and it was forged in the Cloudbreak Volcano with the help of the Giants' strength.

Tri-Tip had spent years now, searching for the nut, trying to break it, and forging the mace, and when not even the power of one of the strongest weapons in all of Skylands, he still could not break the walnut!

With all of his options rendered null, Tri-Tip had one last lead to follow: the Eon's Elite. The longest fighting, most powerful and trained Skylanders to ever live. Tri-Tip went before them and begged for their help breaking the nut, only to come face to face with the person he had spent all this time searching for: Dino-Rang.

After over a decade apart, Tri-Tip had long come to terms with his thoughts, and upon first sight, confessed his true feelings...

Now, Tri-Tip serves as a Sensei at Skylanders Academy, since he has so much experience with each different group after working with them all for so long. He never managed to break the golden walnut, but he doesn't mind. He and his husband are plenty fine where they are now.

Other Stuff:

Tri-Tip is gay, and married to Din-Rang

Tri-Tip may be one of the least experienced Skylanders, but all the time he spent with each individual group and traveling on his own made him an easy candidate for a position as a sensei

Tri-Tip has an irrational hatred for all kinds of nuts now, an does not get along well with many life Skylanders because of it.

That's what I could come up with for Tri-Tip. Do you like it? I'm always down for feedback, as long as it's polite ^^

One of my longest origin stories yet, but he just had a lot of potential in my opinion. So much more could be done with him!
