Balloonists

The Balloonists are inhabitants of the Dragon Realms who help Spyro get to the other parts of the Dragon Kingdom. They only appeared in Spyro the Dragon. The Balloonists take control of their own hot air balloon and will let Spyro travel to any Homeworld he has been to before using this Balloon, or to a new Homeworld after performing some sort of task in either rescuing the dragons, the Gems or collecting the stolen Dragon Eggs. There is one balloonist in every Homeworld in the game.

==Trivia==
===Original Game===
*In an early screenshot of Spyro the Dragon, the Artisan Balloonist was originally a Boatman, and Spyro would’ve used a boat to travel to the Peace Keepers home. Unused text strings in the Tabloid demo also mention the Boatman: "Welcome to the Peacekeepers world. You can return to the Artisan world by speaking to the Boatman."Next Generation Magazine Issue 42 (Jun 1998), page 66-68
*The Balloonists bear a striking resemblance to the Gnorcs in the level Gnorc Cove.
*Their lines are simply text, and thus they can't be heard speaking.
**This does not apply with Spyro Reignited Trilogy, where all the Balloonists have been given voices.
