The Darkness (Skylanders)

==Summary==
The Darkness is a powerful, evil force heavily alluded to throughout the Skylanders series, first discovered when the Ancients were eagerly exploring the universe using their Rift Engines. Their explorations accidentally created an evil rift engine that lead to another dimension, from which the Darkness emerged in Skylands to wreck havoc. The Skylanders of old held back against the Darkness' forces until a solution was found in the form of the Core of Light, which drove the Darkness away to the very corners of Skylands. In spite of this, the Darkness' presence was still known, lending assistance to Dark Portal Masters such as Kaos and his mother. It wasn't until thousands of years later until the Darkness was defeated, thanks to the Superchargers with help from a Dark Rift Engine.
